After some searching and verification, Su Manrong determined that when the blisters of chickenpox patients are scabbed, they are no longer contagious.

I also communicated with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince’s entourage and determined that it had been five days since His Royal Highness’s body became abnormal. Although it was less than a week, the blisters had turned into black scabs and were almost no longer contagious.

.

However, for the sake of safety, Yi Ling accompanied His Highness the Crown Prince, wearing a mask, and walked back and forth along the northern area of ​​the city to relieve his boredom, and did not let others come into contact with them.

Su Manrong and Xiao Chengxian stood side by side on the city gate, looking at Xiao Jing and Xiao Kai outside the city gate with telescopes, but they still felt doubtful in their hearts.

For the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince, the north area of ​​the city is heavily guarded, and there is absolutely no chance that the two of them could sneak over here.

But where did their epidemic come from?

It had been almost twenty-four hours since they left the shelter, and the refugees who had been in contact with them before had no symptoms at this time.

"I thought they would flee directly after leaving Qianzhou City. I didn't expect them to stay in the tent honestly."

Su Manrong put down the binoculars and wrapped himself in a military coat.

As a labor protection product in modern times, military coats are generally worn by workers or people who often work outdoors. But in Qianzhou City, labor protection coats are a symbol of rights.

Only people in the government, such as Master Guo Zhizhou and his officials, as well as security guards responsible for public security work and recruits on the training ground, are eligible to wear military coats.

Other refugees wear black cotton clothes processed by garment factories, which are called cotton bags in modern times...

"Maybe I'll run away soon."

According to Xiao Chengxian's idea, he directly asked someone to take Xiao Jing and Xiao Kai away, and put a hot iron in front of them, which was enough for them to tell everything.

But Madam has never been so cruel to these enemies. She would only use enemy enemies to kill each other.

The lady has thought far and carefully, and it is indeed safe to not touch human lives on her hands.

But this is not the society Madam lives in. No one will care about how many lives someone has on their hands...

"It's a normal reaction for them to run away."

In the past few days, everything was calm and calm, and no one came to touch her. Su Manrong felt that everything had gone too smoothly recently, and it was so smooth that she couldn't get used to it.

In other words, after Xiao Jing and Xiao Kai left the city, the Su Mansion was isolated in the southern district of the city. There were no villains around her anymore, but instead of feeling relieved, she felt that a storm was coming.

"Remove the guards on the city gate today and see if they will react." Xiao Chengxian squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the tent under the city gate. Perhaps because there was someone on duty, they thought they couldn't run far.

So there was no escape?

Today's sunrise time is only half an hour, that is, an hour. Only during the period at noon can you see the sun flash by.

If nothing else happens, we will be plunged into complete darkness tomorrow...

"Madam, sir, a letter from Dekang City." Sansan trotted to the city gate, handed the letter to Su Manrong's hand, and stepped aside to wait.

As long as the master is by the lady's side, they don't have to wait closely, which can also give the lady and the master some private space...

"Come and see." Su Manrong handed the letter to Xiao Chengxian. After all, the ancients used traditional Chinese characters to write letters, which did seem a bit laborious.

A letter from the Imperial City is not a big deal when you think about it. It's just that the Holy Emperor and the Queen came to inquire about His Highness the Crown Prince's condition. After all, the Crown Prince has been here for the past few days and delivered letters back, so it's time to receive a reply.

"The letter says that Third Elder Brother will be killed first and then reported. He is already on his way to Qianzhou and will come to worship you as his teacher."

Xiao Chengxian put away the letter playfully, the smile on his face was very meaningful.

"I am helping His Royal Highness to adjust his mentality in order to repay the animals donated by His Highness King Cheng that day. The third elder brother is coming to worship me as his disciple, which will involve a fight in the court."

Su Manrong shook his head displeased: "I'm going to write a letter to the Holy One. I don't want to get involved in this muddy water."

"The Holy One must not have wanted Third Elder Brother to come to Qianzhou, so he sent this letter. But since he is already on the way, it is better to write back and ask the Holy One to send someone to pick him up. It is better to send him back to the imperial city directly.

."

This was the first time that Xiao Chengxian saw Su Manrong say no... and he knew that there was no room for negotiation in this matter. In this case, he would not let his wife worry about it. As a qualified husband, he should clear all obstacles for his wife.

.

"Is this okay?" Su Manrong looked at Xiao Chengxian who was so arrogant and asked weakly: "I wonder what the background of Third Brother's biological mother is. Can we afford to offend her?"

The recruitment of soldiers in Qianzhou City is always in progress, but the number of new recruits suitable for joining the army is only fifty, and even if the fifty guards are included, there are only just over a hundred.

If Third Brother's uncle is a military commander or something like that, with so many elite soldiers under his command...

We can only think of ways to postpone this matter, and it is not appropriate to have a stalemate for the time being.

"His Royal Highness the Prince's uncle and the third elder brother's uncle, both civil and military, are the right-hand man of the Holy Emperor. However, at present, Dekang's idea of ​​​​valuing the direct descendants over the concubines is here..."

Xiao Chengxian raised his eyebrows and stretched out his hands to hug Su Manrong into his arms: "But don't forget, madam, that His Highness Prince Cheng won the throne not by relying on anyone's uncle, but by the advanced weapons of madam. To be precise, they worshiped

The weapons on the training ground only have one bullet left. If you want the weapons to be effective, your wife has the final say..."

"Didn't you say that King Cheng seized the throne without spending a single soldier?" Su Manrong asked in surprise.

"No soldier was wasted. The key is that among the weapons given to them, there was only one bullet from the beginning."

Xiao Chengxian waved his hands innocently, how could he not be careful when dealing with people in the court?

It’s not like we didn’t see the fate of Xiao and Su’s two houses...

If you want to deal with these people without any worries, you must leave a way out for yourself and cut off the other person's way out at the same time.

Su Manrong nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, her eyes full of admiration for Xiao Chengxian.

In this way, they really have nothing to be afraid of.

"I'm afraid they sent Third Brother to Qianzhou. On the one hand, they want to become your disciple, and on the other hand, they want to find out the source of the weapons."

Xiao Chengxian's face was full of fun, and his thin lips parted slightly: "Don't tell me they wasted a lot of guns and ammunition because of curiosity?"
