209 Capture

Ten days is a long time, a short time, for Taohua, this is only ten days, but for those who wait for their children outside the quarantine area, it is like a year, especially when the news came out that the death row prisoner died of illness after wearing the clothes of a smallpox patient, several women cried directly outside, as if their children were about to die.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still the little son of the Jiang family in the quarantine area, it was estimated that in less than ten days, those children with pox would have to be snatched out by their parents.

But for the children, ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Without it, they are all children of poor families, some of whom do not have enough to eat on weekdays, but now there are vegetables and meat every day, and children of the same age play together, except for those patients with smallpox around them, who look a little terrible, and the life here is simply very happy. When it was time to leave after ten days, there were still a few children who were reluctant to get up.

Jiang Bohua is even more energetic. Don't look at his young age, but he is literate and can move a few punches and feet, as if he has become the head of a child, leading people every day to turn the sky over, so that Taohua found out for the first time that his younger brother is actually a bear child, and he has itchy hands several times and wants to beat him!

The carriage full of children left the quarantine area in the late May sunshine. Each child took off the clothes they wore in the quarantine area, bathed and changed into new clean clothes before returning to the capital.

Many people had already gathered outside the city gate, and when they saw thirty children sitting in the carriage in high spirits, the sound of discussion rose higher and higher, and spread all the way into the distance.

"Princess Jun, when will the pox start in the whole city?" In the crowd on the side of the road, someone suddenly asked loudly, which immediately caused a chorus: "Yes, yes, when did you start planting pox?" We're all ready with the silver. ”

Taohua was also sitting in the carriage, sitting in the middle of a group of children, looking completely different from a noble princess, and said with a smile: "Everyone doesn't have to worry. It's hot, and it's not a good time to get pox. After that, the imperial court will issue a notice of pox, and according to the household registration, every family will plant it. Everyone waited patiently in line, in fact, it was very fast. ”

"Then, is the pox vaccine made by the princess of the county?" Someone had the audacity to ask again.

"I can't make these many pox by myself." Taohua smiled, "Not only in the capital, but everywhere in the future, it will be promoted, tens of thousands of pox vaccines, I can't do it even if I am a thousand-armed Guanyin." ”

There was a burst of laughter in the crowd, and someone dared to shout: "The princess is the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva, bless people with peace!" ”

This caused echoes, and Taohua hurriedly waved his hand: "I am not the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva, this method of pox is also thought of and tested by predecessors, although they failed to succeed, but they also pointed out the direction for future generations, so today there is a successful method of planting pox." The way of medical arts, roughly like this, must be tried when unknown, even if it is in the wrong direction, at least tell future generations that this road cannot be taken, so that future generations can get ......twice the result with half the effort when they try again."

The crowd at the city gate gradually quieted down, and the people near and far were silent, pricking up their ears to listen to Taohua's words: "If there is no failure of predecessors, it is difficult to have the success of future generations." If there is no Shennong to taste the death of a hundred herbs, there will be no Hua Tuo Bian Que to save people to live. The way of a great doctor is not to be afraid of risks, not to be afraid of material discussions, and to do his best to heal people, and not to have any scruples about success or failure. Even if people are incomprehensible, unsympathetic, and unforgiving, it will be the same. ”

Shen Shu took the carriage of the county king's mansion and personally came to the city gate to greet him, but was blocked by the crowd in the distance. It's just that although there are many people at the moment, the scene is almost audible, and with his ear power, it is enough to take Taohua's words into his ears, and he can't help but smile. The way of the great doctor, it turns out that this is the way of the great doctor, Taohua has always looked like she doesn't like to practice medicine very much, in fact, in her heart, the way of the great doctor has always been firmly rooted and has never changed.

"The prince of the county has come to pick up people...... "Someone finally discovered Shen Shu, it was really that the red dress was too conspicuous, and the tall horse under the seat was also a rare horse in the capital. In the end, the people still had a sense of awe for the people in the royal family, and unconsciously gave way and let Shen Shu ride his horse through the crowd and walk to the front of the carriage.

Taohua is wearing a new red shirt today, or the clothes made when she was a girl at home, she actually likes this color, but the clothes are muslin, although it is comfortable to wear, but it is not suitable for the identity of the princess of the county, and she didn't want to take the mint with her when she got married, or Taohua asked her to stuff it into the box, thinking that if the weather in the northwest is hot, it is good to wear it in the room, and Shen Shu will not be picky.

Who knew that he returned to the capital before staying in the northwest until it was hot, but this time he didn't have to dress so luxuriously in the quarantine place, so he turned this shirt out again.

Although the clothes are not very expensive, the color is very delicate, and her slightly tanned skin reveals a moist reddish, full of blood and vitality, like a flower in full bloom, exuding fragrance outward without any scruples.

Shen Shu sat on horseback and looked at Taohua condescendingly. Now he was really sure that his eyes had changed, the clothes on Momoka's body were no longer gray in his eyes, and even the face was different, as if it was illuminated by something, there was some subtle and indescribable change.

"The princess is back?" Shen Shu suddenly smiled, bent down and stretched out his hand to Taohua.

In the next second, hundreds of people watched in amazement as King Anjun lifted the princess of the county on horseback, sat in front of him, then turned the horse's head around, walked through the crowd as if no one was around, and threw down Jiang Bohua stretched out his hand in vain: "Sister, brother-in-law-" He also wants to ride a horse!

"This, thisβ€”" someone muttered in a low voice, "this is too unorthodox...... In the northwest, it's all so cheapβ€”"

Before the last shameful word was spoken, this person was pinched by his mother-in-law, and screamed out in pain: "Are you crazy?" ”

"You're crazy!" His daughter-in-law glanced at him fiercely, "Let's go, hurry back and prepare the silver money for the babies to plant pox, didn't you listen to the princess, soon the whole city will be pox!" "What do you say about shame, do you want to be beaten? Besides, although the prince of the county is so ...... in broad daylight However, the princess is really blessed, just say that she has this at home, she can't even say a warm word on weekdays, and she doesn't know how to greet her when she goes out, let alone expect him to understand this.

It's not just one person who thinks like this, and it doesn't take more than an hour for the news to fly all over the sky. When the queen got up in the morning, she called someone to inquire about the news, hoping that the thirty children would die better, and it would be better if the little cub of the Jiang family died.

However, it was really unfulfilling, not only did not one of the children die, but they all jumped alive, attracting hundreds of people to meet them at the city gate, which was as if they were victorious. Especially that Shen Shu, who made this scene in front of everyone's eyes, it was just-

"Immoral!" The queen hated to squeeze out four words from between her teeth, "Queen Mother, the Jiang family is so immoral, she is losing the royal face, she doesn't understand the rules, you have to teach her well." ”

The Queen Mother half-closed her eyes: "That's because King Anjun doesn't understand the rules." The Northwest has always been like this, and it's no wonder that he grew up there. She really wanted to make some articles, but now that the Jiang family is in full swing, she has no energy, and more is better than less. Now it is a sure thing that Hengzhu will divide some military power from the hands of Dingbei Hou, and he has all the inside, so it doesn't matter if he gives Shen Shu and his wife a penny and a half.

The queen's heart was not happy: "Queen Mother, even if you don't reprimand the Jiang family, her two sisters in this palace must be restrained well, in case they also do such a bad thing, it will be the emperor's face." ”

The Queen Mother understood that she was not happy. A woman who has never been cherished by her husband will feel comfortable when she sees other women spoiling her room? However, the Jiang sisters have nothing to do with the overall situation anyway, and the queen will teach a lesson if she wants to.

So Yuhui Pavilion and Qunxiang Hall received the palace people sent by Fengyi Palace at the same time, and sent a volume of palace rules to each of the Jiang sisters and asked them to copy it.

"What is this-" In the Jade Hui Pavilion, the scent of sandalwood was flushed, "Chong Yuan is so decent, why was he punished?" is what misbehavior did the princess of the county, why didn't the queen punish the princess of the county? ”

Jiang Meihua was also very unhappy in her heart, but she also understood that her position as a full-handed woman still borrowed Taohua's light, and now Taohua has proved that pox is feasible, and her reputation is suddenly prosperous, and the queen has no other way than to punish herself for copying palace rules, let alone like a few days ago, even the little concubines who are under their heads dare to embarrass themselves. In this way, what is the value of copying palace rules: "Don't say it, just take a pen and paper." ”

"But the queen didn't say how much to copy...... "When it was accepted, no matter how much Jiang Meihua copied, the queen had reason to be too little.

"Copy it first, and when you go back, you can inquire about how many volumes Sister Xing'er copied there." When the time comes, she will copy a little more than Jiang Xinghua, and it will be enough.

Taohua didn't know that the two cousins were being punished because of her, because now she couldn't care about anything else: "You said your eyes have changed a little?" What exactly has changed? Let's be clear! ”

Shen Shu looked at her face with a smile, especially the two open and closed lips: "I can't say clearly, but I just think these things don't look very different, as if they are brighter." ”

Taohua clenched her fingers and walked around the room a few times: "It's brighter...... "Oh my God, why didn't she study more thoroughly, why didn't she ask the treated people with color blindness what it was like to recover."......

In fact, the results written in the case report are basically "I can recognize most of the color blindness examination charts" or "I can recognize the color blindness examination charts", but no one has described in detail how the patient's vision changed little by little during the treatment process.

A person who is born with the color red, and you should not expect him to suddenly discover, "Ah, I can see red", there is no such color in his world. So now Shen Shu can only say that he feels that the world looks different, but he can't say what is different.

"This at least proves that the first course of acupuncture is effective!" Momoka waved her fist and looked excited, "Great! I'm going to have to look into what to do with the second course. By the way, we need to draw a few inspection charts! "She should be able to draw a few simple color blindness checks.

Shen Shu sat there, looking at Taohua with a slight smile. His princess was spinning around the room, like a headless little fly, completely lacking the shrewd and capable appearance of her usual life, but her eyes were as bright as two stars, the corners of her lips kept rising, and her smile was unconsciously revealed, so beautiful that people didn't dare to look at it.

"Alright, you sit down first." Shen Shu pulled the person over, "It's a long time coming, and it's not bad at this time." These days in the quarantine place, and they don't let me follow, I only hear about the constant lifting of people outside, and I don't know what is going on inside. ”

In fact, there were not many smallpox patients in the isolation area, but more of the death row inmates who were selected from the prison, because they had not been planted with pox, and most of them quickly contracted the disease and died. The body of the deceased will be carried out for the imperial doctors to identify whether they died of smallpox, so as to compare the epidemic prevention effect of pox vaccines.

To be honest, this method of testing medicine by people is really a little difficult for Taohua to accept. In particular, there are teenagers among the death row inmates, who are just children in her opinion.

Shen Shu sighed and patted her hand: "Men over fifteen years old, they can't be pardoned, they were originally going to be beheaded after the autumn." The emperor has promised that if he can survive in the quarantine place, he will be pardoned. "Fifteen years old, in this era, can no longer be regarded as a child, generally robbing the house and beheading, men over fifteen years old are within the scope of beheading.

"Forget it, don't talk about it." Taohua also knew that since she came to this world, she had to accept the rules of this world, "But on my uncle's side, what happened?" ”

The smile on Shen Shu's face remained unchanged, and he said slowly: "On the side of the Northwest Army, it is bound to replace a few people." ”

"That-" dismissal is equivalent to the military power being divided, and the biggest reason for Dingbei Hou's jealousy is military power, but it is also military power that allows him to protect himself. However, looking at Shen Shu's appearance, he didn't seem to be in a hurry.

Shen Shu leaned back on the back of the chair with his eyes closed, and actually lifted the two long legs up without any image, and set them up directly on the table, half of the chair legs were vacated, swaying there dangerously, with a little smile on his face.

"What is this for......" Momoka was amused and angry. Shen Shu's waist is tight and his legs are long, this action is quite handsome, but in terms of his upbringing, it is simply nothing, if Mrs. Dingbei Hou sees it, maybe he will slap it up, "What is your idea?" ”

Shen Shu opened one eye and looked at her, and the corners of his mouth curved upward: "When the northwest pox vaccine had an accident, why didn't you plant Bai Ge'er first?" "If Jiang Bohua was given a pox at that time, at least half of the accusations could be calmed, especially Zhang's accusation that she was not skilled in medicine and hurt people.

Taohua disagreed: "Abscesses must be squeezed out to be good, and the harder they jump, the clearer they can see the situation." "To put it bluntly, you always have to save up enough strength, and you will only snap when you hit your face, right?

"You mean-" Taohua was halfway through speaking, and suddenly she understood, "want to capture ......" so indulgence?

Shen Shu closed his eyes again and shook his chair: "I said, the emperor doesn't want to wait." ”

"But this is too dangerous, if the military power is in the hands of the Yu family, isn't the position of the Yu party more stable?" Taohua didn't understand it for a while. Wasn't the emperor's previous indulgence of his family a desire to indulge? Now that even the military power wants them to get a piece of the pie, isn't that a tiger like a tiger in the party?

Shen Shu was still slowly rocking the chair: "But what the Yu family wants is more than that. "The Yu family has been glorified for two dynasties, but they still want a longer honor.

"They also want to master a prince." Taohua muttered, "yes, haven't they been eyeing Lu Ying's child for a long time." ”

"This child, the emperor will not let the queen take it and raise it." Shen Shu said lightly. The chair under him was supported by two legs for a while, and then only one leg supported the ground, and it seemed that it would fall down at any time: "The more the Yu family wants, the more unstable it will be......"

Taohua thought about it a little puzzled, and suddenly felt a slight chill in her back: "You mean, the emperor-"

"Shhh I haven't seen him in a few days, does he miss me? ”

Of course, Jiang Bohua still thinks about this brother-in-law. Although he had already been washed when he left the quarantine area, as soon as he returned to the county king's mansion, Kikyo still took someone to pick him up again, pressed him into the bath bucket and washed it again. When Taohua and Shen Shu passed, he was squeaking and screaming and being pressed to get dressed, and he didn't be honest until he saw his sister come in.

Shen Shu lifted him up and threw him up: "What are you shouting?" ”

"Whew-" Jiang Bohua's pants haven't been put on yet, so when he throws it like this, the hem of his clothes floats up, and he suddenly looks cool, "Brother-in-law!" "There's a maid in the house, but my sister is still there.

Taohua laughed so hard that she couldn't breathe, and saw Jiang Baihua crawling into the quilt with a flushed face, and barely leaning on the wall to move out of the door. That's it, no matter what the emperor wants to do, Shen Shu has her own ideas for those things, she just needs to follow along. What she has to do now is to do a good job in promoting pox.

"Princess, Mrs. Liu Hanlin is here!" Yuzhu hurriedly came in from outside the courtyard, "The slave and maid couldn't cry anymore, and shouted to beg the princess for help." ”

"Help?" Taohua frowned, "What is there in the Liu family to save my life." "Anyway, the errand of the pox planting department will never be handed over to Liu Zhijing again, but this matter will not be fatal.

"Mrs. Liu was so anxious that she spoke upside down, and the slave maid didn't understand it very well, but she only heard that she meant to invite the princess to come over the house to diagnose someone's pulse." Although Yuzhu hadn't seen the adopted daughter of the Jiang family a few times, she had already classified Chen Yan as incompetent in her heart, and she was messy even when she came over to say something, so that she couldn't reply to her master.

Taohua suddenly thought of someone: "Could it be that the old lady of his family has an accident?" At the beginning, Mrs. Liu said that it was typhoid fever, and when she went to check the pulse, she was a little suspicious: typhoid fever was typhoid fever, but the weather had not been cold in those days, where did Mrs. Liu go to get cold? I'm afraid that I did it myself.

However, Taohua's original intention was also to let Liu Zhijing quit his errand, so naturally he wouldn't poke anything, and Mrs. Liu was indeed really sick. It's just that Chen Yan came in a panic at this moment, could it be that Mrs. Liu herself did too much and couldn't afford to get sick?

Taohua didn't guess all right, but the outcome of the matter was no different. As soon as Chen Yan saw her, she knelt on the ground: "Sister help, my mother-in-law can't be done, Lang Zhong said that she can't be saved!" ”

"Don't cry!" Taohua asked Mint to get the medicine box and prepare the carriage, and said impatiently, "Tell me, what is your mother-in-law's illness?" ”

Chen Yan couldn't speak. How so? Along the way, her legs were weak, and Mrs. Liu suddenly collapsed while she was talking, will someone say that she was angry with her mother-in-law?

"Speak quickly!" Taohua felt even more impatient when she saw her like this, "If you want me to save my life, just say it in detail, otherwise no one can do anything about the delay." "Could it be that the cold turned to pneumonia?

Chen Yan couldn't help but burst into tears, but she didn't dare not say it, she said a few words, and quickly explained to herself: "I didn't talk back to her-"

Taohua didn't have time to listen to what she said again: "Quick, go to Liu's Mansion immediately!" "If you go any longer, I'm afraid you won't be saved. Mrs. Liu's situation is very similar to a cerebral hemorrhage. The blood vessels of the elderly are already fragile, and long-term violent coughing may also rupture the blood vessels, and this sudden sitting up and attacking the heart becomes the last straw that crushes the camel.

Chen Yan saw that her face was serious, and she only felt that her whole person was falling, and her legs were weak and she almost sat on the ground: "Sister, it's really not me, I don't want to be angry with my mother-in-law......" She just told a few words of truth.

"Get up!" Taohua dragged her up with one hand, "Let's go quickly, I hope we can catch up." "You didn't say anything to Mrs. Liu, but you said her son, probably more heart-wrenching than saying her. However, speaking of which, Chen Yan's words are not wrong, Liu Zhijing is clearly a coward who sees the wind and steers, but he wants to attribute all the fault to Chen Yan, and the villain is nothing more than that.

However, cerebral hemorrhage is such a thing, people really have to end it very quickly, when Taohua rushed to Liu's house, Mrs. Liu had already swallowed her breath, and her face still maintained that angry look, and her eyes were half-open and could not be closed.

"You slut!" Liu Zhijing wiped it twice with his hand but failed to wipe off Mrs. Liu's eyelids, and suddenly got up and slapped Chen Yan is face, "You are angry with your mother-in-law, I want to sue you for disobedience!" ”

"Liu Hanlin, calm down." Taohua really didn't want to care about the Liu family's bad things, but it was really unpleasant to see Liu Zhijing's righteous appearance, "If you want to sue her for disobedience, what evidence is there?" When asked in court how she was disobedient, what did Liu Hanlin plan to say? "There is a kind of you who say that you escaped and was poked by your wife, and the old lady died suddenly in anger.

Liu Zhijing was choked. Since Chen Yan married into the Liu family, she has been honest under Mrs. Liu, and the neighbors all know that Mrs. Liu can tame her daughter-in-law, and now there is no evidence to say that she is disobedient. He was stunned for a long time before he suddenly knelt down in front of the bed: "Mother, my son is incompetent...... "Why did things become like this, now that his mother is gone, he will worry about filial piety, even if he wants to be cheeky and go back to the pox at this time, there is no chance at all......
