At dawn, the ministers received the news that Prince Ling had unfortunately contracted smallpox, and everyone in the Prince Ling Mansion had already been sent overnight to the traveling palace to recuperate.
The ministers were not at all surprised by the news because since his engagement, Jing Lingyu had been frequently ill, never fully recovering, and hadn't made any public appearances.
In their hearts, the ministers lamented that Prince Ling had such bad luck this year, fearing it was an astrological misfortune.
Some even recalled the rumors about the Princess Consort Ling, wondering if she truly brought misfortune to her husband?
If it weren't for the Princess Consort's ill fate, would Prince Ling have fallen more seriously ill since their marriage?
