In just a few days, Yu Maokun found a cow with smallpox, took its pox scab, and then ground it into powder, which was considered to be a preliminary cowpox.

However, there is no way to apply this kind of cowpox directly, and then Yu Maokun found a healthy person, inoculated him with cowpox, and waited until he had pox, before removing the scab from his pox, completing the process of pulling out the poison, and it will be safer and more secure to use. However, he hid from the emperor at this step, no matter what, he couldn't let the emperor's eldest son take risks.

A few days later, when it was time to officially vaccinate the cowpox, Ning Yu did not simply let the emperor's eldest son be vaccinated, but sent someone to invite the reporter of Qingliu Daily to the palace to witness the moment of vaccination, and asked him to carefully record it and send it to the newspaper in the future, which is a very important moment.

Coincidentally, after Wang Jingqi joined Qingliu Daily, because of his very good writing and natural understanding of current affairs, he quickly won the attention of Lu Yizhong, the editor-in-chief of Qingliu Daily, and asked him to come to the palace as a reporter of Qingliu Daily to record this extraordinary moment.

Now that he came to the palace, Wang Jingqi felt that the whole person was a little trembling, when he saluted the emperor, although he knew that he didn't have to kneel, but he still couldn't help but want to bend his knees, he saluted the emperor excitedly, his voice was a little trembling, and he seemed to have forgotten the purpose of the trip, and he didn't start to prepare for the record until he calmed down.

Cowpox method - Wang Jingqi doesn't understand this kind of doctor's method, but he knows who the protagonist is today, not Yu Maokun, but the eldest son of the emperor who was just born, and he is very likely to become the future prince!

Different from Wang Jingqi's inner excitement, Yu Maokun was more excited about the possibility of the cowpox method coming out, he brought the cowpox powder to the palace very early, only a moment later, the eldest son of the emperor who had just been named Chengze was hugged out by the nurse, he blinked his ignorant eyes, looked at the stranger who appeared in front of him, not only did not feel afraid, but had some novel feelings.

"Let's get started."

Ning Yu waved his hand lightly, he hoped that from this moment on, the cowpox method could really appear in front of the world, with a posture that appeared eighty years in advance, and maybe save more people from the hands of the smallpox demon.

Yu Maokun used a straw to take a little powder, and then put it on the side of the nose of the emperor's eldest son, Ning Chengze, and blew lightly, only to see that the powder was blown into his nostrils at once, which made the emperor's eldest son seem to feel a certain discomfort, and soon cried loudly.

After the nurse brought the emperor's eldest son down, Yu Maokun said respectfully: "This method will be effective in about ten days, and as long as the emperor's eldest son has blisters, it will be fine." ”

"This time it's hard work, but it's too hard for Dr. Yu......"

Ning Yu smiled, then looked at Wang Jingqi again, and said softly: "You can write these in the Qingliu Daily, just record them as they are, and let the people believe in pox from the root, so that the spread of smallpox can be controlled." ”

"Your Majesty Shengming, this time to test the cowpox method with the eldest son of the emperor on behalf of the young children of all the people is the first benevolent government in the world, comparable to the ancient Yao Shun, it is really the move of the Holy Monarch."

Wang Jingqi had a look of excitement on his face, but Ning Yu was a little tired when he saw it, and he didn't know whether he was sincere or boastful, but these are not important, Ning Yu still hopes that through this matter, the benevolent government of cowpox will be promoted, and there is nothing to exaggerate the process.

Throughout the city of Nanjing in November, the news of the birth of the emperor's eldest son was spread inside and outside, and the explosion of the news was no less than when he ascended the throne that year. Although people did not talk about it in public, they all had a little joy on their faces, and the reason was very simple, when the emperor had an heir, the biggest trouble disappeared.

Although the people do not understand the major affairs of the imperial court, they have their own set of opinions on whether the emperor has a descendant or not, that is, the ethics and morality rooted in the blood - only the orderly inheritance is a stable society, if the emperor has no queen, it means that there will be a struggle around the throne in the future, and the chaos of the political situation will also affect the lives of the people.

Therefore, under this good news, the cowpox method was also spread together, and the people knew that this was the first time that the eldest son of the emperor was the first to test it for his subjects, although they did not understand how great the effect of this cowpox method was, but it did not prevent the status of the royal family in their hearts to be improved again.

Soon, after the method of cowpox was successfully verified, Qingliu Bao published a special issue, which recorded the origin of smallpox and its various harms, and then wrote the evolution of the human pox method and the cowpox method on it, and finally attached the whole process of the emperor's eldest son to plant pox, the text is simple and straightforward, even ordinary people can understand it.

This issue of the smallpox special issue was soon frantically snapped up in Nanjing, and the special issue sent to other big cities was almost immediately robbed, forcing the Qingliu newspaper to repeatedly reprint, and then continue to sell to other cities, in just half a month, this issue of the special issue was printed 500,000 copies, and all sold out.

In fact, the reason is very simple, for the people, the emperor doesn't have to do it so well, he only needs to ensure a safe and orderly life for them, and provide the most basic material security, so that the people will not starve to death, that is, the world's first-class Ming Jun.

Therefore, when Ning Yu has been working hard in this direction, the people will naturally be grateful to Dade, they will not feel that this is what the emperor must do, but regard it as the emperor's benevolence to his subjects, especially this time, the advent of the cowpox method and the emperor's eldest son trial, make them think that the emperor really put the people in his heart.

Of course, in this process, the power of the newspaper once again shocked the government and the opposition, and the sale of 500,000 copies not only refreshed the previous record, but also refreshed their weight in the hearts of the cabinet, and the newspaper's propaganda ability was too strong!

At the cabinet meeting, the scene of endless disputes in the past disappeared, and almost everyone looked at the Propaganda Department, Shang Shu Ning Zhongquan, and even the first assistant of the cabinet, Ning Zhongjing, and the second assistant, Cui Wancai, looked at Ning Zhongquan with a bit of solemnity.

This scene had to make Shang Shu Ning Zhongquan of the Propaganda Department very proud, since he became the Shang Shu of the Propaganda Department, he has always lamented that he was assigned to a Qingshui Yamen, and he couldn't do things energetically, but he didn't expect that Peng Qifeng, who was silent in the past, would make such a big name!

Although everyone knows that the main messenger here is the current emperor, it is quite remarkable to be able to sell these 500,000 copies of the newspaper, not to mention how terrifying the influence it causes, the silver earned alone has reached 5,000 taels, which is not a small number, almost the cost of a hundred medium-sized families in a year.

"Ning Shangshu, the impact of this Qingliu Report has indeed exceeded our expectations, what do you think?"

Ning Zhongjing's face was a little serious, although they were brothers, but above the court, there was no brother, only colleagues, especially in this kind of cabinet policy, there could not be the slightest negligence and slackness.

Ning Zhongquan was not very clear about the development of Qingliu Bao, so he had to whisper: "The development of Qingliu Bao belongs to the Department of Press and Publication, and from the perspective of the following officials, it is better to invite Peng Qifeng, deputy director of the Department of Press and Publication, to come and describe in detail." ”

"Okay, then invite Director Peng." Ning Zhongjing's voice had a bit of majesty.

The Joint Council of Cabinet Ministers is different from the Executive Yuan meeting in that the attendees must be at or above the level of the Ministers of the Executive Yuan and above the level of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

After Peng Qifeng learned that the cabinet had summoned him, a look of excitement suddenly rose on his face, which was undoubtedly an affirmation of his work, so he hurriedly packed up the relevant materials and followed the visitor to the cabinet meeting hall.

"Peng Qifeng, deputy director of the Department of Press and Publication of Xiaguan, has met Lord Shoufu, Lord Sufu and Lord Shangshu of various ministries."

Peng Qifeng swallowed his saliva a little nervously, in fact, when he was watching politics in the palace, he had a lot of dealings with Ning Zhongjing, but at this moment and then, when he was in this environment again, he naturally felt more or less nervous.

Ning Zhongjing naturally remembered this top talent, he had always admired this kind of literati, and a little smile appeared on his face, "Director Peng, take it easy, you just need to tell the cabinet about your current plans for the Press and Publication Department, and don't be afraid if you have any questions." ”

As soon as Peng Qifeng heard Ning Zhongjing's voice, his heart calmed down suddenly, "Qiqi Shoufu, although the Press and Publication Department has just been established this year, the relevant arrangements have begun to be implemented, and the "Qingliu Daily" has exceeded one million copies so far........ By the first half of next year, the Department of Press and Publication plans to support the publication of 18 newspapers of various types and strictly supervise the accuracy of their contents......."

This time it can be said that Peng Qifeng's debriefing report, although he was pulled over very suddenly this time, but in his mind, he doesn't know how many times it has passed, so it is reasonable to say it now, and more importantly, it is extremely detailed in terms of data, which is completely different from the fake and empty things in the past imperial court.

The more the ministers of the court listened, the more satisfied they felt, and then looked at this young man, they couldn't help but nodded, this talent is a talent after all, and it has soared into the sky in such a short time......

After all, everyone knows that the position of director of the Department of Press and Publication is still vacant, and there are not many people in the court who have this opportunity to compete for now, and Peng Qifeng is almost the only candidate among them.

...........

After nightfall, the sky is always shining brightly, and for the people in the city, it does not mean that they will immediately step into their dreams, because the nightlife of Nanjing is even more exciting than the life in the daytime.

In the Qinhuai River, every day after nightfall, there will be a large number of flower boats on the river, the boat often hangs lanterns and hydrangeas, it seems that the white adds a bit of festivity and ambiguity, from time to time there are some little Langjun, on the shore and the little girl on the flower boat shouting at each other, frolicking.

"Congratulations to Brother Peng, this performance in the cabinet is really too exciting, not only to make Lord Shoufu admire, but I am afraid that it will also reach His Majesty's ears, it seems that the day of rectification is just around the corner."

Wu Jingzi picked up a glass of wine, but he drank it all, and his face was already a little red in an instant, he was really happy for his friends, but he also felt a little disappointed for his opportunity.

You must know that before this, almost everyone thought that only he Wu Jingzi was the best in this list of talents, and compared to others, his position was almost the most prominent and the closest to the center.

But only Wu Jingzi understands in his heart that every day of running a company, he only listens to orders, and he has never been able to take the initiative to do anything, because running a company is almost equivalent to the secretary and errand runner of the cabinet, and even he, the deputy director, is only a special errand for the top bosses, and behind the glory seemingly, there is no room for him to speak at all.

"You are all doing a good job now, Liu Tongxun and Wang Youdun are also thriving in the local area....... I'm the only one who only spends time with the case every day. ”

The meaning of sorrow between the words is overflowing.

Peng Qifeng looked at his friend's demeanor, and naturally understood something in his heart, these are what he has experienced....... It's just that there are some things that outsiders can't explain at all, and only when he has experienced it himself will he really get out of the predicament, and there is no good way to do it.

"Brother Wu, there are some things that Your Majesty can see...... The present experience is not an empty life for you. Peng Qifeng drank a glass of wine, he felt that he had indeed grown a lot after this period of time.

"Your Majesty should be able to see ......"

Wu Jingzi remembered the scene when he met Ning Yu at the beginning, and thought of his experience in the Dadu Governor's Mansion, and couldn't help but feel a little more confident, maybe he was being tested.

Peng Qifeng glanced at Wu Jingzi's decadent Tang and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, let's not care about business today, just talk about the wind and snow, okay?" ”

"Good! Let's not talk about business, just about the wind and snow! ”

Both of them were originally people who drank well, and with the help of poetry, this wine was drunk quickly, and after a while, they were a little drunk. Especially Wu Jingzi, who was lying on the railing and vomiting.

Peng Qifeng sent someone to send Wu Jingzi back to his residence, but he returned to the office of the Press and Publication Department, he opened the drawer, took out a copy of the "Qingliu Bao" with the scent of ink, and couldn't help but show a little smile on his face.
