Chapter 5: The Son of the World Contracted the Plague
After sending away the large army of Prince Gong.
"Which play are you singing about?"
Xu Yuanhong frowned and looked at Xu Tian.
Xu Tian smiled mysteriously: "Father, you are optimistic, they will not come to propose." ”
Xu Yuanhong opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words when he came to his mouth, sighed, and said, "Okay, you can do it yourself......"
For the confidence of this son's mystery, Xu Yuanhong is also unsure of the truth and fiction.
Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, if Shangcang really wants to ban the Yulan Palace, he can't do anything.
Let's take it one step at a time.
……
A day passed.
Two days passed.
Xu Tian didn't move.
By the third day.
"The lord is not good! Young lord him, he ......"
Early in the morning, Xu Yuanhong was practicing his pen, and he saw his subordinate running over with a sad face.
"What's the matter?"
Xu Yuanhong looked at the subordinate who was prostrate on the ground with a solemn face.
"Young master, he seems to have contracted the plague!"
In an instant, Xu Yuanhong was like being struck by lightning, and there seemed to be a bang in his head, and he was stunned on the spot.
"Smack."
The ink-dyed brush falls on the white paper, dripping black ink dots.
He directly let the people on the desk and the floor rush out of the door.
King Magnolia hurried to Xu Tian's courtyard, and there was no one nearby, so no one dared to approach at this time.
Only the father rushed into Xu Tian's room desperately.
Looking at Xu Tian, who was lying on the bed with a rash on his face, Xu Yuanhong's heart was trembling, and he stepped forward and said, "What's going on?" You...... How did you get this disease? ”
This is a plague!
More than half of the plague is deadly!
"What's going on? You...... How did you get this disease? ”
Regarding the rumors of plague in the county, Xu Yuanhong, as a king with a different surname, attaches great importance to it, after all, Chixia County also belongs to the south, and it is less than 300 miles away from the hard-hit area of the epidemic, and the outbreak is also expected.
But he never imagined that the first person to be infected would be his only son.
Xu Tian smiled: "In this way, Prince Gong will not come to propose marriage." ”
Xu Yuanhong stared: "What do you mean?" ”
is reminded of Xu Tian's Zheng Zheng oath three days ago: "Father, you are optimistic, they will not come to propose." ”
"You did it on purpose?"
Xu Yuanhong was shocked.
Xu Tian, who had a few red rashes on his face, still smiled and was noncommittal.
"How did you do that? Why did you deliberately get this disease? Did you know that this disease has killed 30,000 people, 30,000 people! ”
Xu Yuanhong's emotions suddenly became excited, "Even a master as strong as level thirty and forty is inevitably infected with the epidemic and died, let alone you are an ordinary person?" How can you play with fire and set yourself on fire? ”
The only beloved wife died early, and now the only son is joking with his own life, how can Xu Yuanhong not be like a knife.
Looking at his father, who was so angry, Xu Tian was also amused, and at the same time, his heart warmed slightly, and said: "Father, don't worry, I can't die, you just need to watch me perform." ”
Xu Yuanhong's emotions calmed down a little: "How dare you be sure that you won't die?" ”
There are patients who rely on their own immunity to survive, but Xu Yuanhong does not think that his son, who neglects to exercise and has a weak physique, belongs to this breed.
"I can't tell you about this right now, just spread the word about my plague."
Xu Tian squeezed his eyes, if he wasn't afraid that the old man would be worried, he wouldn't have planned to tell his father that he could live.
Xu Yuanhong found that he really couldn't understand his son more and more.
"Alas!" Xu Yuanhong sighed heavily, his brows furrowed into the word "Chuan", "You kid, I really don't know what to say about you!" When your life is at stake, you treat it as child's play! ”
Having said that, Xu Yuanhong found that his son's illness did not seem to be serious, but there were a few red rashes on his face, which was far worse than the tragic situation of his face full of pus in his neck in the description of the epidemic.
Could it really be as he said, that he could carry it?
When did the terrible plague have such means of control?
Even if there is, how can it be from the hands of his own unsuccessful son?
Xu Yuanhong couldn't be optimistic no matter how he thought about it.
How could he know that the rash on Xu Tian's body was just a normal reaction to the cowpox he had planted on his body.
As long as modern people know that cowpox is a vaccine against smallpox, the symptoms are mild and not fatal, but it can allow the human body to produce antibodies to the pox virus, and once planted, it will never be infected with smallpox.
It's a pity that the people of the other world at this stage don't understand these things.
……
The fact that the prince of the Yulan royal mansion was infected with the plague was a big matter, and it was not trivial, so it spread throughout the country at once.
Prince Gong, who originally said that he would come to the door to propose marriage on the fifth day of farewell, heard the news that day, and immediately felt numb on his scalp, bathed seven times in a row, and asked people to burn the clothes he wore when he went to the Yulan Palace, along with his underwear and socks.
"Prepare the car! This king will enter the palace to meet the saint! ”
Then, in a hurry, he went to see the emperor.
"Brother Huang, look, how do you think this is good?"
Prince Gong stood in the imperial study, and there was no one except Emperor Lan Chong, who was sitting behind the desk, and the curtains were closed.
"Even so, this marriage can only be abandoned."
Emperor Lan Chong, whose face was shrouded in shadows, groaned.
After all, a plague is basically a dead man, and a dead colt is worthless.
The original plan was that Xu Tian was a useless sole heir, and that he would be recruited as a concubine and give birth to an heir with royal blood, who would succeed him after his death.
At that time, the Magnolia Palace, the 200,000 Magnolia Army, and the precious Red Lotus Mecha will all rightfully become the pockets of the royal family.
In other words, Xu Tian's value is limited to giving birth to an heir with royal blood.
If he had died before then, the marriage would have been meaningless.
Besides, the plague is too contagious, and the lord of Su Miao is the emperor's niece, so it is not good to send people into the tiger's mouth.
The key is that you must not bring a plagued horse into the imperial capital.
Fortunately, I haven't made a decree to marry yet.
Prince Gong breathed a sigh of relief: "The new deal ......"
Emperor Lan Chongdi said two words lightly: "Go on." ”
Prince Gong said: "In my humble opinion, Xu Tian, the son of the king of Yulan, has been weak since he was a child, and he has never practiced martial arts. If he dies like this, he can save me a lot of effort, and there will be no successor to the Yulan Palace, and it will be self-defeating. ”
Emperor Lan Chong pondered for a moment: "Not really. Let me think about it again, you go first. ”
"Brother quit."
Prince Gong retreated.
At this moment, Emperor Lan Chong and Prince Gong had the same thoughts in their hearts.
Xu Tian ...... If you die like this, it's fine, but if you don't die......"
In this way, Xu Tian successfully escaped.
The five-day deadline has passed, and there is finally no movement on Prince Gong's side.
At this point, Xu Tian also breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I don't have to marry, no, marry that two-hundred-eighty-pound behemoth.
But Xu Tian is well aware that this is only temporary.
