Gu Nuo’er was also instantly carried into Ye Siming’s arms. However, the child called out anxiously, “Everyone, don’t get close to him!” The little princess’s words made everyone stop in their tracks.

Gu Nuo’er waved her small hands. “Everyone, go out first. Teacher Tao is sick.

Everyone, be careful not to get infected!”

She seemed to have woken up everyone from a dream.

The recent epidemic had caused everyone to be in a panic.

When the students heard Gu Nuo’er’s words, they retreated like a swarm of bees.

Ye Siming also carried the child and left the room.

The child leaned on his shoulder and glanced at Master Tao, who had fallen to the ground.

She wanted to save him, but it was too late.

How long had Master Tao been sick for?

His illness had gotten so serious.

The students stood in the courtyard, feeling a little flustered and uneasy.

“I just saw Teacher Tao four days ago. At that time, he was fine. It’s only been a

few days since we last met, but he’s already so sick!”

“This is too scary. Could it be the epidemic that came from that village? Oh no, will we be fine?!”

While everyone was talking, someone had already invited the state school’s headmaster over.

The headmaster rushed over, followed by two guards wearing veiled hats that covered their mouths and noses.

The two guards walked in first.

The headmaster comforted everyone outside. “Young masters and young ladies, calm down. I’ve already sent someone to invite the doctor from the nearby medical hall over. Don’t be afraid.”

After a while, one of the guards came out and whispered a few words to the headmaster.

The headmaster was immediately shocked. He instructed softly, “Hurry up and find a white cloth to cover him up and carry him away. We can’t keep him here.”

The others couldn’t hear what they were saying.

However, Ye Siming, who had excellent hearing, heard everything clearly.

Not long later, the two doctors from the medical hall were hurriedly carried into the courtyard by small sedan chairs.

Countless students came out from the other classrooms to take a look at the situation.

Everyone whispered to each other nervously.

The doctors went in. Not long later, a person covered in a white cloth was carried out.

Everyone immediately understood that it was Master Tao.

He was dead!

The person who was standing in front of everyone just now was gone just like that!

Some young ladies from aristocratic families couldn’t accept it and immediately broke down and cried.

“He died from an illness. Will it infect us?!”

The headmaster originally didn’t want to make a fuss about this matter.

However, he didn’t expect everyone to guess so quickly that he had died from the epidemic!

He had no choice but not to hide anything and said repeatedly, “I’ve arranged for the doctor to burn mugwort to expel the illness. Everyone, don’t panic.” Although that was the case, everyone still started shouting.

“How can we be at ease? I want to go back and tell my father that the state school isn’t safe at all!”

“Teacher Tao is sick, but you still let him come to class. Headmaster, this is your dereliction of duty!”

The headmaster alone was no match for so many mouths.

At this moment, a soft voice interrupted—

“Everyone, don’t be anxious. It’s useless to be anxious. It has already happened.

We should think of a countermeasure together.”

Gu Nuo’er’s small face was soft, but her expression was very serious.

She was protected in Ye Siming’s arms and continued to say to everyone who had fallen silent, “Fortunately, no one was especially close to Teacher Tao just now.”

The child’s tone changed. “However, even so, you have to drink some medicine to prevent colds when you go back. If you feel unwell, you have to go and see the doctor in time!”

Gu Nuo’er waved her small hand. “It’s useless to worry now. Why don’t you guys take precautions? Don’t be afraid. I’m with you guys today and have also come into contact with Teacher Tao. I believe that we’ll be fine!”

With the little princess’s words, everyone finally felt a lot more at ease.

After all, if anything happened to Gu Nuo’er, His Majesty would definitely get the Imperial Academy of Medicine to develop a prescription for the epidemic as soon as possible..
