"Let the unsick get smallpox first?" In the study, the family of Dingbei Hou Mansion was all present except for Mrs. Tai and the twins, and before Taohua's words were finished, Yin Ru was the first to exclaim, and even the Leng family and Mrs. Dingbei Hou changed their faces.

"Smallpox kills!" Yin Ru stood up angrily, "Now that the epidemic has just started, it is already scary, and you still want to let everyone in the northwest get smallpox once?" This, this is tens of thousands of lives! ”

Shen Shu coughed lightly: "Ru'er, listen to your cousin-in-law." ”

"Cousin!" Yin Ru stomped her foot, "Do you agree with this method?" You listen to whatever she says, and you don't even care about the lives of these people in the northwest? You're not lost! ”

Shen Shu's face was slightly ugly. Taohua hadn't told him about this before, and he felt a little shocked at first glance. However, Taohua is by no means the kind of person who will joke with the lives of innocent people, Yin Ru's initial accusation was because he cared about the northwest, but it was understandable, but it was really too much to point out that Taohua was confusing him.

"Ru'er!" Mrs. Dingbei Hou looked at Shen Shu's face and coughed too, "Sit down." Your father is still here, what are you anxious about? The daughter's words are indeed a little ugly, and what she has lost her mind and the like is not what she should say as an unmarried girl.

Shen Shu calmed his face slightly, and said to the Marquis of Dingbei: "Uncle, please listen to Taohua, she will never take the lives of thousands of people in the northwest as child's play!" ”

Yin Ru's face flushed, she turned her head angrily, and glanced at Taohua fiercely. But as soon as she turned her head, she heard her father say in a deep voice, "Is it really to have smallpox first?" ”

The people in the entire study were stunned by Yin Chongyan's words, and only Taohua's eyes lit up: "Oh? Someone has already mentioned this to my uncle? ”

Mrs. Dingbei Hou was the first to react: "This-Master Hou, could it be that someone ...... in the past" It turns out that Jiang's method is not so shocking and groundless?

"Someone has done that." Yin Chongyan suppressed the boiling emotions in his heart and said in a deep voice, "But as far as I know, this method of preventing acne is not very effective, and many people have contracted and died first in the process of preventing acne. It remains to be seen whether those who survive will never get smallpox again. "Three of Lao Lang's grandchildren died in exile and did not have the opportunity to prove to future generations whether they were immune to smallpox. And the two daughters of the official's family who have successfully prevented pox, Yin Chongyan has nowhere to look.

"Uncle can I meet the pox man?" Momoka was slightly excited. Historically, it is said that China should have invented the human pox inoculation method in the Song Dynasty, but this method is really unsafe, because the pox species are highly toxic, so one bad thing is that people are really infected with smallpox, and it will also cause the spread of the epidemic.

In the Longqing period of the Ming Dynasty, the human pox method was perfected, and "planting flowers", that is, planting pox, began to be implemented, all over the world.

Taohua calculated the time and felt a little headache. The world she crossed over turned a corner in the Yuan Dynasty, and although the dynasty is still called the Ming Dynasty, the emperor is not surnamed Zhu - the Shen family claims to be descendants of the Tang Dynasty, so she doesn't know which era it is equivalent to the original Ming Dynasty, but obviously, the human pox method has still appeared.

"People have been gone for years." Yin Chongyan was slightly gloomy, "He claimed that he had successfully planted pox for his three grandchildren, but all three of them had died, so there was no way to verify it. However, after that, he had planted pox for people, but he died, so the whole family was convicted and sent to the northwest. ”

"I see...... "Momoka was also a little embarrassed. No matter which path they take, the first mover is always the most difficult, because they bear countless failures, but it is these failures that point the right direction to the latecomers.

"That's because the vaccinia used to sow pox is so toxic that if the recipient is not in good health, it is easy to really contract smallpox." Most of the people who want to get pox are children, but children have poor resistance, so they need safe pox seeds. In this regard, human pox is always inferior to cowpox. There are not many cattle in the northwest, so it is more convenient to inoculate with cowpox here than in other places.

"Cow-pox?" Although Yin Chongyan believed in the method of planting pox more than others, he felt incredible when he heard that it was actually using cows, "How can this be ......?"

"But didn't the anthrax come from cattle and horses?" Yin Ru could hear it, and she had forgotten that she had just gouged out the Taohua eye knife, and asked when she opened her mouth.

"Yes. Therefore, some diseases are common to people, cows, horses, pigs and sheep. Human pox is more toxic, while cowpox is milder, as long as the child is healthy, it should be fine. ”

Leng Shi didn't speak, and only then did he whisper: "But the people won't believe ......" This fact is unheard of, who is willing to send a child to let you get pox?

Yin Chongyan groaned for a while, his eyes slipped towards Mrs. Dingbei Hou, and the husband and wife looked at each other and looked away. Yin Chongyan coughed dryly and said to Taohua: "How to do this?" ”

"First of all, we must find the cow that gave birth to smallpox." Taohua already had a general plan on the way here, "Just in case, this matter needs to be done by someone who has already had smallpox." In addition, it is necessary to publicize this matter so that everyone is willing to come and get vaccinated. It will take some time, and I need to go to the source of the anthrax first. Also, here are a few recipes for those who have contracted the disease...... I want to see it too, and I have to do my best to ......."

The study was quiet, and Leng couldn't help but say, "But you haven't had smallpox ...... either."

Taohua smiled: "Protect carefully, it should be fine, adults are not susceptible to smallpox." ”

"Then I'll go with you." Shen Shu said immediately.

"No, you don't." Momoka turned her head and smiled at him, "You have to bring someone to help me find the cow." Although Yin Chongyan seemed to believe her words, she didn't feel the attitude of the Dingbei Hou Mansion towards her, and such an important matter was still handed over to Shen Shu to rest assured. As for the Dingbei Hou Mansion, first, she wants to find the source of anthrax and use them, and second, let them publicize the matter of planting pox, even if they find 10,000 cows, the people refuse to come to plant pox, it is still in vain.

The Dingbei Hou Mansion has always acted quickly, and after this Taohua finished talking about his plan, the order had been passed down, and the entire Dingbei Hou Mansion acted in the middle of the night.

In the study, everyone else had already returned to their rooms, leaving only Dingbeihou and his wife sitting silently opposite each other. After a long time, Mrs. Dingbei Hou said: "It's not early, let's rest early, won't there be many things tomorrow." ”

"Qianqian—" Yin Chongyan raised his head and blurted out.

Mrs. Dingbei Hou's surname is Du, the daughter of the military general's family, she is called a second mother according to the ranking, and she doesn't have any elaborate names. After marrying into the Yin family, Yin Chongyan flipped through several books, and finally gave her a literary crepe character called Qianqian, which is called this in the boudoir.

However, that is also what the husband and wife did when they were still in their twenties, and then the old Dingbei Marquis passed away, and Yin Chongyan inherited the title, which also provoked the burden of the northwest frontier defense. Mrs. Dingbei Hou has also changed from a shy new daughter-in-law to Mrs. Hou, filial piety, raising children, and helping the people of the northwest externally, supporting the rear during the war, and looking more hard than Dingbei Hou.

So more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, the old husband and wife, and some of the little pleasures in the boudoir have faded, and the name Qianqian may not be mentioned again for a long time. At this moment, as soon as Yin Chongyan called out, Mrs. Dingbei Hou suddenly had red eyes: "You want to call me like this now...... Li'er and Li'er are still young......"

"It is at their age that they are most afraid of smallpox." Yin Chongyan stretched out his hand to hold his wife's hand, "If this matter is successful, not only the people of the northwest will believe that it is our son, and there is no need to be afraid of smallpox anymore." ”

After smallpox was found in the northwest epidemic, Mrs. Dingbei Hou was indeed most worried about the twins, although smallpox had not been found in Yanzhou City, she still kept her two children at home and could not go out of the gate.

Now hearing her husband say this, Mrs. Dingbei Hou couldn't help but choke: "But, who knows if this thing will be successful." If yes, if so...... What if ...... "What if the two children do get smallpox?"

Yin Chongyan's face was like a rock carving, and it was terrifyingly cold and hard in the candle shadow: "If it doesn't work out, it proves that the Jiang family is deceiving the world and stealing fame, and this method is definitely not feasible." ”

"But at that time, our children—" used the lives of two children to verify Jiang's words?

There was a deathly silence in the study. After a long time, Yin Chongyan said with difficulty: "Our Yin family has guarded the northwest for generations, and it is for the people of the northwest to ......" The people of the northwest regard the existence of the Beihou Mansion as a god, respect, respect, admiration, and response. Similarly, the Dingbei Hou Mansion has not known how many people have died on the battlefield for generations, and they have paid the price of blood for this piece of heaven and earth in the northwest.

Mrs. Dingbei Hou covered her face. In fact, since the eldest son Yin Jun began to fight with her husband at the age of fifteen - no, as early as when she married into the Dingbei Hou Mansion, she knew that her son was going to fight on the battlefield in the future, and she knew that her husband might be shrouded in horse leather sooner or later, and she knew that she would not be able to live in the inner house in peace like other women in her life.

But it's one thing for an adult son to die on the battlefield, and it's another thing for a son who has not yet grown up to test the medicine.

"They, they're still young...... "Life has just started, and they haven't experienced anything yet......

Yin Chongyan's hand tightened unconsciously, and his grip made Mrs. Dingbei feel painful: "There are countless children in the northwest who are as big as them, or even younger than them. Once smallpox spreads...... If the Northern Barbarians take the opportunity to attack...... "When the time comes, it will not only be the children who will die, maybe the entire northwest will fall." The Northern Barbarians slaughtered the city, and the consequences were so terrible that people didn't dare to imagine it.

"Under the nest, there are no eggs!" If the northwest cannot be kept, the Dingbei Hou Mansion will lose its meaning of existence.

"What's more, this may not be the case."

"Do you believe in the Jiang family?" Mrs. Dingbei Hou raised her head and looked at her husband with a hint of hope. For so many years, she has always believed in her husband like this, and if he believes in Jiang, then she is willing to believe it again.

"I don't just believe in Chiang." Yin Chongyan's eyes appeared in front of Lao Langzhong's haggard face when he was dying, "This method may really benefit the world...... 166 Reading Network
