Spatial Peasant Girl: These Mad Darlings Are Delicate and Gullible

Chapter 335: Smallpox

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Everyone in the world knew how terrifying smallpox was. As long as the commoners had it, they could only trap all the patients and burn the source of this illness.

The Crown Prince cherished his life. He wanted to disturb the morale of the army, but he did not want to be exposed to danger. If he let this group of sickly people with smallpox live, wouldn’t it be dangerous for him too?

Hence, he said, “Smallpox is not a small matter. No one knows when or under what circumstances it will be passed on to others. If we’re not careful, it will become a catastrophe that will cause the entire city to fall. The soldiers should know that they can’t harm more innocent people just to make an exception for a few people.”

“Pass down the order. Everyone in this hut will be…” killed without mercy!

He wanted to act first and report later before Third Brother came. No, pfft! As the Crown Prince, he did not need to report to Third Brother. He wanted to kill these soldiers who had just returned to the city and destroy the prestige Rong Yan had painstakingly accumulated!

If Rong Yan agreed, he would go from a commander who cared about the soldiers to an executioner who killed his buddies and be hated by the entire army. If he objected, the Crown Prince would immediately escape far away with his people and turn this smallpox into a plague that filled the city. This way, Rong Yan would make a bigger mistake and the citizens and soldiers with infectious diseases would only hate him for being soft-hearted. After that, the border city fell, and the deal between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince of Xiongnu could be counted.

Coincidentally, at this moment, the advisor, who had finished using his authority, cupped his hands and stepped behind the Crown Prince’s back. Just as he was about to put on a mighty appearance, he suddenly tripped uncontrollably and placed his hands on the Crown Prince’s back.

The Crown Prince was really unprepared. Moreover, he staggered forward a few times and realized that his body’s momentum did not decrease. He actually did not show any signs of stopping.

Everyone watched helplessly as the Crown Prince hopped into the house.contemporary romance

When the Crown Prince and everyone in the room stared at each other, a glint flashed across Xiaoxiao’s eyes. She retracted her space control and looked at the door frame. It was time for space control, so she had to do the rest herself. Hence, she hooked her toes and the wooden door shook slightly before closing.

Xiaoxiao’s big eyes flickered as she asked the Crown Prince innocently, “What did you say about the people in this hut just now?”

The advisor and guards originally wanted to pull the Crown Prince back as soon as possible and pretend that nothing had happened when he entered the house just now. However, their plan failed. Moreover, Rong Yan had already rushed over with Yun Er and the others and had personally witnessed the Crown Prince staggering into the house. They couldn’t quibble even if they wanted to.

The Crown Prince had just opened the door again after glaring at Xiaoxiao when he was blocked by the swords pulled out by Yun Er and Yun Zheng.

Rong Yan clenched his fists tightly. The guard explained the situation concisely in his ear and asked for punishment. He took a deep breath and met Xiaoxiao’s gentle gaze.

Xiaoxiao shook her head slightly. How could she blame the guards? They upheld the distinction between men and women and kept a proper distance from her. Who would have thought that the advisor would suddenly push her just because he thought that she was in the way?

Rong Yan’s voice was as deep as the netherworld. “I also want to know what the Crown Prince wanted to say just now. How should we deal with the people in the hut?”

The Crown Prince thought to himself, Kill them all! However, he was also in the hut now. How could he lose himself too?

He said with a dark expression, “We must treat the people in this hut well!”

The advisors reacted slowly. How could Rong Yan allow them to take the Crown Prince away?

The Crown Prince was now Xiaoxiao and Gongsun Zhongjing’s life-saving talisman. If he left, the Crown Prince probably wouldn’t leave anyone alive in the next moment. Seeing Rong Yan suppress his anger, Xiaoxiao was worried that he wouldn’t be able to help but slash the Crown Prince apart.

The Crown Prince’s aides and guards insisted that their Master had a noble status and that he had just entered. It was impossible for him to be tainted with smallpox. On the other hand, there were so many patients inside. They might implicate the Crown Prince’s noble body if he stayed too long.

Yun Er and the others snorted coldly, indicating that nothing could be done without rules. If everyone had such wishful thinking, if “a careless mistake would cause the entire city to fall”, everyone would naturally know that they could not harm more innocent people just to make an exception for a small number of people.

The advisors’ faces turned purple—this person actually used His Highness the Crown Prince’s words to shut them up!

The Crown Prince’s forehead was already covered in sweat. He gritted his teeth and asked Rong Yan, who was outside the door, “Third Brother, I’m your brother. Do you really have to do this?”

Rong Yan was unmoved. He only walked past the Crown Prince and secretly looked at the very calm Xiaoxiao.

The Crown Prince asked again, “If something really happens to me, how are you going to answer to Father? How are you going to answer to my mother? How are you going to answer to… Noble Consort Ji?”

Rong Yan frowned slightly. He took a step forward and glared at the Crown Prince.

“Your Highness, even if you want to threaten me, you’ve really found the wrong method. Do you think I’ll still care at this point?” After saying that, he watched Xiaoxiao stride into the house with the intention of stepping in.

At this moment, Xiaoxiao, who was standing not far behind the Crown Prince, shook her head at him and mouthed, “I’ve had it before.”

Seeing that he still refused to stop, Xiaoxiao sighed. “Commander, please wait.” Rong Yan finally stopped before he stepped into the house. Yes, as Rong Yan, he could go in and accompany Xiaoxiao, but as the commander of an army of 100,000, he could not.

He was in a bad mood and his tone was unfriendly. “If you really want an explanation…”

“Let’s say that the Crown Prince loves the people like his child. In order to advance and retreat with the soldiers, he willingly stepped into the ward. What do you think, Brother?”

The Crown Prince’s eyes widened in anger. “You!”

Rong Yan looked at the advisors behind him and his gaze accurately landed on the person who pushed Xiaoxiao. He raised his leg and kicked him forward. “Although the Crown Prince is righteous, I can’t let you treat your body carelessly.”

“Later, I will arrange for this courtyard to be surrounded. From now on, it will be specially used by doctors to treat illnesses. Please lower yourself to stay here for a few days, Your Highness. In addition, you can leave a few considerate people to serve you.”

The Crown Prince wanted to reject it, but he looked at his dozens of guards, at the murderous personal guards behind Rong Yan, and then at his unsheathed sword, Azure Frost, which was said to be able to cut someone in half at the waist. Thinking of the current situation of the 100,000-strong army, he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger.

“I’ll be staying alone in a side courtyard. No one is allowed to approach me. No one is allowed to interfere with my food and accommodation.” He had never interacted with patients. As long as he stayed far away, he would only be imprisoned for the past few days and his life would not be in danger. He thought that Third Brother would not have the guts to do anything to him. When he returned to the capital, he would definitely repay today’s humiliation double!

Rong Yan nodded. “Sure.” The Crown Prince shifted his gaze to the crowd.

The advisor who had pushed Xiaoxiao and the Crown Prince broke out in cold sweat. He immediately felt that he could not keep his life. As expected, a moment later, the Crown Prince stretched out his hand and pointed. “Shao Lin, come in..”
