Section 688 Exercise of drinking hot water (1)

After the excitement, Zhang Yue immediately cautiously helped Jin Shaofu and returned to the room to rest.

Let Jin Shaofu be both sweet and a little funny.

His husband, known as Zhang Chiyou in Chang'an, but at this time, he became clumsy and at a loss.

"Husband, the concubine's body is only more than a month old, but there is no need to be so careful......" Jin Shaofu couldn't help but sneer.

"Hey......" Zhang Yue helped Jin Shaofu, sat on the bed, and said with a smile: "This is my Zhang's eldest son!" ”

The old Zhang family has been passed down to his generation, how can he not be cautious with such a single seedling?

"By the way, sister-in-law knows?" Zhang Yue asked.

"I haven't reported my sister-in-law yet...... Jin Shaofu said softly: "This matter, the concubine doesn't dare to report it without authorization, and it is still up to the husband to tell ......."

This is also right, after all, Jin Shaofu is only a concubine in theory, not even a concubine.

This kind of thing can only be reported by Zhang Yue, who is the husband, to the elders of the family, which is in line with the etiquette law.

"It's late tonight, it's inconvenient to disturb my sister-in-law......" Zhang Yue comforted Jin Shaofu and said: "Early tomorrow morning, my husband will take my young husband to say hello to my sister-in-law and report the good news!" ”

"No!" When Jin Shaofu heard this, he immediately became overjoyed.

Although she had expected this, being able to get Zhang Yue's personal commitment still made her let go of her last worries.

Because, according to the unspoken rules of this era, if a woman has a body, she must report to her ancestors, and only the heirs born after reporting her ancestors can have a reputation.

Especially the concubines and concubines!

And those who are qualified to report their ancestors are, of course, the elders of the family!

Therefore, in some large families, in order to prevent the heirs from competing for property in the future, many people have adopted the practice of concubines and concubines and not telling their ancestors.

In other words, the legitimacy of the child is not recognized.

Losing the recognition of one's ancestors means that one is an illegitimate child.

He did not have any legal status, let alone compete with his brothers for the power of the estate.

But......

In fact, this is still a very gentle and humane approach!

Many ruthless families, in order to eliminate future troubles, will even drown the son of Concubine Teng when he is born!

Fortunately, similar families, as long as they are discovered, they will be attacked, and it is impossible to climb to a high position.

Zhang Yue turned his head and asked the maids who were married to the young husband Jin in the room: "The young husband is pregnant, you must take care of it carefully, and there must be no mistakes!" ”

"No!" The maidservants were happy to receive the order, and they were very happy for their hostess.

Zhang Yue turned around and said to Jin Shaofu: "When you are ready to show your ancestors, you will accompany the young husband back to his parents' house to save his relatives and report the good news to the Jin family!" ”

When Jin Shaofu listened, tears immediately flashed in his beautiful eyes, and he said softly: "No! ”

My heart is full of joy and gratitude!

Because, according to the general secular rules, concubines cannot enjoy the right to go back to their parents' homes to save their relatives.

After all, a 'concubine' is legally an item, and it's a giveaway! The daughter who was sent out was equal to the money that was sent out, and there was no such thing as saving relatives at all.

And Zhang Yue's decision is tantamount to telling the family and the Jin Mansion.

Although she was a gift from the Kim family to go out and serve the pillow seat, she ......

The status cannot be equated with an ordinary concubine, but a hostess with a certain status!

At that time, there were very few people who were willing to do this!

…………………………

After settling Jin Shaofu, Zhang Yue returned to the study and continued to write a note.

Because of the good news of Jin Shaofu, Zhang Yue wrote it in high spirits and was excited.

It didn't take long to write the note.

After drying the ink and checking it, Zhang Yue smiled with satisfaction and said lightly: "Fortunately, I am a traverser!" ”

Not long ago, the ginseng soup brought by Jin Shaofu reminded him of a thing.

That is - in later China, the custom of drinking hot water swept the whole country.

From the city to the countryside, everyone knows that it is necessary to drink hot water.

It is a doctor, and when he encounters a cold patient, the most important thing to ask is to 'rest well and drink more hot water'.

In later generations, this is something that is accustomed to and is not strange.

But as a former civil servant, Zhang Yue knows how much time it took to embed this common sense, this thing that everyone knows and abides by, into the hearts of the people, so that everyone knows about it?

From the late Qing Dynasty to the patriotic health movement in New China, a total of 80 years, after three dynasties, countless people with lofty ideals ran to appeal, and finally made this matter become common sense and turned into a well-known health rule.

The changes in it reflect the various social aspects since the late Qing Dynasty.

This incident gave Zhang Yue infinite inspiration.

Drink hot water!

It is indeed the key word to persuade the courtiers and the Son of Heaven to vigorously promote, publicize and popularize honeycomb coal!

It is also an effective means of epidemic prevention.

It just so happens that Zhang Yue is still serving as the 'Gyeonggi Plenipotentiary Anti-Epidemic Ambassador', keeping the scepter and seal.

Therefore, it is only natural for him to play such a sparse performance.

Moreover, he endorsed his achievements and credit in personally participating in the epidemic prevention work in Chang'an, and he was not afraid of the disbelief of the Manchu Dynasty and the Son of Heaven.

Even if some people have doubts in their hearts, they will probably hold the simple concept of 'I would rather believe in it than believe in it', and involuntarily follow Zhang Yue's words.

Of course!

There are also risks that Zhang Yue has to take.

He had to prove to the world that drinking hot water was indeed effective in preventing infection.

At the very least, it must be proven that it is possible to cut off the source of infection for infectious diseases such as cholera.

Otherwise......

Refer to the people recorded in the history books who begged for rain in the Dragon King Temple, but the Dragon King did not rain, so the angry people carried the statue of the Dragon King out to bask in the sun and even smashed a smash record.

The Yellow Turban Army at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty even shouted the slogan "The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand".

Even God, if he can't bless and shelter the people, he has to die!

Once Zhang Yue's assurances and endorsements did not work, they even backfired.

Counterattacks and backlashes followed.

Fortunately, the successful experience of later generations proves that drinking hot water is indeed the most suitable and most suitable epidemic prevention and sanitation strategy for the national conditions of Zhuxia before there is no effective water purification technology.

If it can be popularized, I don't know how many lives can be saved.

………………………………

The next day, when he first arrived, Shang Shu Ling Zhang Anshi rubbed his temples that had a headache after a hangover, and walked to the official of Shangshu in Lantai.

Shang Shu's left servant shot Yang Chang and stepped forward, bowing and saluting: "I've seen Ling Jun!" ”

"But there's a slight?" Zhang Anshi asked.

"It's ......" Yang Chang was just recommended by Huo Guang to shoot as the left servant of Shangshu, and he was not yet suitable for the work of Shangshutai, so he had to report and consult Zhang Anshi in every detail, and the most of them was the recital played by the ministers.

Therefore, Zhang Anshi didn't care, and said: "If it's a general performance, Yang Fushi can just take his own idea!" ”

After serving as Shangshuling for almost eight years, Zhang Anshi was also a little bored, and he didn't want to be bound by this court anymore, and wanted to make a contribution.

And the goal he aims at is the 'River Governance Protectorate' that is about to be established and completed.

The Son of Heaven means that this 'Governing the River Capital Protectorate' will be an official office at the level of Jiuqing.

Moreover, the person who served as the protector of the capital was almost certainly the crown prince Liu Ju.

This is not only the meaning of the Son of Heaven himself, but also the inevitability of the current development of the court.

After all, the crown prince Liu Yi personally jumped out to write and recommended himself.

As a result, Prime Minister Liu Quyu, Zhijin Wu Wang Mang, and Taichangqing Shang Qiucheng, although they were all scolding and dissatisfied, they could only pinch their noses and accept this fact.

After all, that is the crown prince, the prince, the future son of heaven!

If the prince wants to learn government affairs and govern the country, how can the courtiers set limits?

No one will dare to come out like this!

At the beginning, Zhang Shizhi used the prestige of the first emperor to brush up, all kinds of embarrassments and slaps in the face, what was the result?

Taizong died and the first emperor ascended the throne, and the first thing was to arrest Deng Tong and release Zhang Shi to Huainan.

Poor Zhang Shi is a generation of famous ministers, but he ended up with an outgoing county, and his descendants have not been able to enter the office so far!

Just a few years ago, Shu County recommended filial piety, one of which was named Zhang Yu, the Son of Heaven saw his name, he looked curiously at the son's hometown and family history, and found that it was after Zhang Shizhi.

Then he issued an order to reprimand the county guard of Shu County, saying that he 'can't be loyal to the country and can't recommend talents', forcing this county guard who had good political achievements to only beg for bones! As for that Zhang Yu...... Naturally, there is no follow-up!

Well, the little book has been memorized until now!

This Liu's chick belly intestine is narrow-minded, which can be seen!

Therefore, although the whole dynasty was indignant, after all, it could only bow its head and support the prince's great policy.

Prime Minister Liu Quyu changed his tone and turned to praise the prince's courage to do things, the blessing of the society, and the luck of the country. ’

As for the others, they are even more sycophants in seconds.

And Zhang Anshi ......

Of course, I also thought about it.

This is the capital of the river, and the prince can lead it!

But there are divisions and main responsibilities below, so someone should do it, right?

For example, the Yuechiwei Lake Project in Huiji County......

Zhang Anshi is really a little bit of a drain, dreaming of it, and wants to get the opportunity to preside over this matter!

He knew that as long as he presided over this matter, once he succeeded, he would have a ticket to the future Three Princes, or even the Prime Minister!

It was his father Zhang Tang that because he did not become the prime minister, he was plotted and conceived, and he died in prison.

Zhang Anshi, of course, doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past!

Therefore, he is determined to achieve this.

But there are also a lot of competitors.

After all, blind people know that all things in the southeast are the most important in the Yuechi project.

The construction period is short, the cost is small, and the benefits are large!

The pretenders are naturally innumerable.

Even if it is him Zhang Anshi, he may not be able to say that he will win, so he has been entertaining and banqueting ministers and contacting feelings in the past few days.

It wasn't last night, but I drank until midnight.

I listened to Yang Changbai and said: "Ling Jun, this matter has to be seen by Ling Jun himself......

As he spoke, Yang Chang handed a piece of writing on a blank piece of paper to Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi raised his eyes and looked, and his expression immediately became serious: "What happened to Zhang Zi repeatedly?" ”
