Chapter 60: The Princess Intercedes
Sores are also commonly known as smallpox in later generations, this kind of virulent infectious disease in the later generations of highly developed medicine, there is no possibility of radical cure, can only be prevented by pox. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In ancient times, it was like a nuclear weapon, and once a city began to spread with sores, the only thing the government could do was to seal off the city and let the people in the city fend for themselves. This disease, which has a fatality rate of more than half of the population, and the poor sanitary conditions in ancient times, often left no one in the entire city once it began to spread. Even if some people survive, they will leave demon-like marks on their faces, and if it is a woman, it is simply worse than death.
So when Mei Yiqi heard that Wen actually had a cure for sores, it was no wonder that she couldn't help but be surprised.
When Mei Yiqi left the prison of Dali Temple after listening to Wen's explanation, her soul was still immersed in shock and could not extricate herself.
Although it has been nearly a year since Wen came to ancient times, there are few people who can be trusted. If you count it carefully, I'm afraid there are only two people, Mei Yiqi and Shishi.
Zheng Zhutou, after all, Xu was born as a official, which doomed him to be difficult to be trusted, which needed to be tested after life and death.
And Tan Fengyi's background is too complicated, and in the choice of life and death, it is destined not to be a priority.
When it comes to one's own life and death, you can only be a villain first and then a gentleman.
Mei Yiqi is more easily trusted because of her simple identity and simple thinking, even if she starts from the most realistic interests, there is only Wen who can guarantee her life now. Therefore, even if Mei Yiqi thinks about her own life, she will completely stand on Wen's side.
Although the stone is serious, but the character is wooden, it is not suitable to do a thing, otherwise the stone is the most suitable person, after all, the stone can get revenge with the help of Wen to achieve, so it is the most trustworthy.
In ancient times, this kind of friendship belonged to the neck-to-neck friends, and it was completely possible to trust each other's lives.
If it weren't for Wen really having no choice, he wouldn't have let Mei Yiqi, a weak woman, get involved in this matter, which was really a helpless move.
Although there is no cure for sores, it is very simple, even unbelievably simple, to prevent them. This disease can not only infect humans, but also infect many animals, and cattle are one of them, just because cattle themselves have a stronger resistance to this disease, so they basically do not die.
If you want to prevent sores, you only need to find the cattle that carry the disease, and implant the weakened sores virus into the human body in a certain proportion. Then if you have a fever that is not too big or small, you will have the immune function of sores, which is what we call pox in the later world.
Such an incredibly simple method, if you want to leak secrets, it is simply too easy, once the secret recipe is revealed, not only will it not become a hole card to save your own life, but it will become the biggest life-saving talisman.
Even if it is not a cure, but only a prevention, this feat is enough to be famous for eternity.
Fame and fortune are moving, so the search for a sick cow must be kept secret enough.
In this kind of thing, Mei Yiqi is a weak woman, but it will not be too eye-catching.
With the treatment of sores, this biggest hole card, Wen Xin is a little more relaxed.
The epidemic of sores is very fair to everyone, it will not take a detour because the other party is an emperor, and it will not open its net to it because the other party is a dignitary.
Identity is a thing that plays no role in front of it.
Everyone, it will be treated equally.
The Imperial Palace, the Vertical Arch Palace.
Zhao Kuangyin was gently rubbing his slightly swollen temples.
There are a lot of headaches recently, and in comparison, how to punish Wen is really a bit out of the table.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Industry will be the supervisor of movable type printing, and will print 3,000 copies of the "Three Character Classic" and "Hundred Family Names" respectively, and will follow the imperial court to spread the text to various states and counties, and at the same time order private schools and schools in various places to start teaching as enlightenment reading materials." Zhao Pu stood in the hall and saluted back.
Zhao Kuangyin groaned slightly: "What is the reaction of the DPRK and Chinese officials to this matter?" ”
"Your Majesty, nine out of ten private schools in various places are funded by local clans, and the children who can go to study are all descendants of prominent families. Ordinary people may not be able to benefit from this for a while, so the DPRK and Chinese officials did not react much to this matter. Zhao Pu replied.
Zhao Kuangyin sighed slightly: "Yes, if you want ordinary people to benefit from it, it may be difficult to do it for a while." ”
"Your Majesty, there is no need to feel nostalgic, with movable type printing, the cost of printing books will drop a lot, and it will be easier for poor students who are dedicated to learning to get in touch with books. There will always be talents who will emerge and serve our Emperor Song. Zhao Pu said with relief.
Zhao Kuangyin sighed lightly and said: "Well, the ideal of teaching the world has been advocated for thousands of years since Confucius and Mencius, but it is still a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water." Now that I have taken the first step towards the direction of the water, the drop of water will wear through the stone, and there will always be a day when it will be realized. ”
"Your Majesty, for the sake of the world and for the people, you will definitely be able to realize this grand wish." Zhao Pu bowed his hand and said.
Zhao Kuangyin smiled indifferently and said: "Zhao Qing's family has a reputation, if the Great Song Dynasty wants to live for 10,000 years, it must not repeat the mistakes of the former Tang Dynasty." And the wealthy family only thinks about themselves, and the change of dynasty does not make any difference to them, just a change of allegiance.
What they pursue is the sustainability of their own family, and they do not consider the interests of the country. ”
"Your Majesty, your views are lofty."
Zhao Kuangyin sighed lightly: "A dynasty wants to be eternal, only the officials of the DPRK and the central government no longer represent the interests of the wealthy family, but the voice of the people." Only in this way can we truly achieve the longevity of the country.
And if you want to have the endorsement of the people appear in the court, you must have officials from the people, and if you want to do this, you can only teach the world. ”
Zhao Kuangyin looked at the distant sky outside the hall, and said leisurely: "How difficult it is to teach the world!" ”
Since Confucius and Mencius, teaching the world has been the ideal advocated by countless generations of virtuous and virtuous people, but after thousands of years, it is difficult to realize, and ten people and nine blindness are the norm in ancient society.
Countless generations of people with lofty ideals have gone forward and succeeded, and even far-sighted emperors have been unable to mobilize the power of the entire dynasty.
The two monarchs and ministers fell silent for a while.
"Father........" A crisp voice woke up Zhao Laoer, who was in a trance.
Zhao Lao Er looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw Xiao Zhao hiding behind the pillar not far away, showing his little head and looking at him timidly. A smile appeared on Zhao Laoer's face, and he asked softly, "Zhao'er, why are you here?" ”
As Zhao Lao Er spoke, he beckoned Xiao Zhao to come over.
After Xiao Zhao got the signal, he turned around from behind the pillar and walked towards Zhao Laoer. Under normal circumstances, the vertical arch hall, as the place where Zhao Lao Er deals with political affairs, is not allowed to come to the children.
Xiao Zhao walked in front of Zhao Lao Er, squatted down and saluted: "Child, I have seen my father." ”
Zhao Lao Er smiled slightly and said: "If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, how can Zhao'er have time to come to see her father?" ”
Xiao Zhao said shyly: "Zhao'er just wants to ask his father, can the prince's chair dedicated to his father be comfortable?" ”
Zhao Lao Er smiled and said, "Oh, this is to invite merit to my father?" ”
"The child doesn't dare, as long as the father is comfortable." Xiao Zhao lowered his head and whispered.
The child's heart is easy to show on his face, seeing Xiao Zhao's expression twisted, Zhao Lao Er said with a smile on his face: "Zhao'er, but there are other things?" ”
"......." Xiao Zhao wanted to speak and stopped, it seemed difficult to speak.
Zhao Lao Er said with relief: "Zhao'er has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it, if you have something you like, your father will find it for you." ”
Xiao Zhao mustered up his courage and said, "The child just wants to ask, what does the father plan to do with Wenjue?" ”
Zhao Lao Er said unexpectedly: "Zhao'er knows Wenjue? ”
"There was a one-sided relationship." Xiao Zhao replied truthfully.
Zhao Lao Er frowned slightly and said, "When?" "This bastard boy, when did he fornicate with the harem, it is simply unreasonable.
"The last time my father entertained Sister Fengyi." Xiao Zhao replied truthfully.
Hearing Xiao Zhao's answer, Zhao Lao Er suddenly remembered that when he invited Wen at the last banquet, he left in a hurry because of something urgent, and left Wen aside.
"Oh, I see." Zhao Lao Er nodded and said, "Zhao'er, but you plan to intercede for Wenjue?" ”
After waiting for so long, and finally waiting for the first one to intercede for that bastard, Zhao Lao Er never thought that it would be his daughter.
"Well, it's not anymore, that's a villain, and the father punished him, very holy. It's just that Sister Fengyi asked me to ask my father about how to deal with Wenjue. Xiao Zhao didn't dare to lie in front of Zhao Lao Er, so he had to tell the truth.
It's just that the meaning in these words is really rich, villain, which shows that there is a story that has to be told between Wen and Xiao Zhao.
Calling Sister Tan Fengyi, does this mean that the two recognize each other?
And Tan Fengyi is the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus, she pleaded for Wen, does this represent the meaning of the White Lotus Sect.
Zhao Lao Er replied in response to the question: "In the future, you will call Aunt Fengyi, not sister, remember." "I and Tan Fengyi are brother and sister, Xiao Zhao called her sister, so what has become of me, the father.
"Why?" Xiao Zhao wondered.
"Just shout like that, and when you grow up, you'll understand." Zhao Lao Er only emphasized and did not intend to explain.
"All right, Father." Xiao Zhao said with some reluctance, it was not easy to find a sister who could play with him, but he became an aunt and elder, so he couldn't play with him at will in the future.
"What about Wen Jue?" Although the mood was a little low, Xiao Zhao still wanted to know how Zhao Lao Er planned to deal with Wen, after all, it was entrusted by Sister Fengyi, and Xiao Zhao didn't want to disappoint her.
"Tell you Aunt Fengyi, my father has his own arrangements for this matter." Zhao Lao Er said lightly. (To be continued.) )
