Liu San'er's house in Weijia Village, including several neighbors, was designated as a forbidden place, and 34 smallpox patients were imprisoned inside, and in order to prevent escape, Li Yuan specially assigned 100 guards from Taiyi Taoist Temple to guard them.

There are a total of 1,000 guards in the Taiyi Dao Palace, all of whom were selected from the forbidden army. There are two more captains in total, one is Su Meng, he is a civilian, he is bold, full of the characteristics of a man in Guanzhong, cold, hard, and tough. The other name is a little interesting, it is Lu Guogong, the son of Hou Junji, the general of the Left Guard, Hou Guangliang.

After the matter in Weijia Village was over, Imperial Physician Xu took Su Meng into a carriage and went to Chang'an.

……

"Uncle, get up~" Wu Jue walked lightly to Li Yuan's soft collapse, lay in his ear, and suddenly shouted loudly.

The dozing picture screen almost dropped his jaw, and a pair of apricot eyes glared at Wu Yu resentfully. Rubbing his eyes as he walked, he said, "Xiao Jue'er, why did you get up so early today." ”

She stretched her waist, as the female official next to Li Yuan, she had to get dressed every day, and she was next to her.

Li Yuan yawned, got up from the bed, hugged Wu Jue on the bed with a stopper, put it on his lap, and slapped her ass with a "snap" with his hand, pretending to be angry: "Let you scare Uncle again." ”

Wu Jue pursed his lips, his cheeks bulging like a pufferfish, turned his head, and his slender arms rested on his chin.

"What's wrong?" Li Yuan put Wu Jue down, put his hands into the golden basin, washed it, and then took the towel handed to him by the painting screen and wiped his face.

The painting screen chuckled, walked to Li Yuan's side and whispered: "Your Majesty promised yesterday that I would go to eat and play with Xiao Yu'er." ”

Li Yuan nodded clearly, although the Taiyi Dao Palace is good, she will feel bored after staying for a long time, not to mention Wu Yu's child's nature, she usually has maids to play with her, but the strange thing is that she is very clingy to herself.

The pond of Cuihua Mountain is not far from Taiyi Dao Palace, where the products are abundant and beautiful, and it is a good place to sightsee. However, he was worried that Wu Jue was playing by the lake, what if he fell into the water?

"What's wrong with the news over there in Chang'an? Has Captain Su's illness improved? Li Yuan said worriedly.

It is now the third day since the outbreak of smallpox epidemic, and Su Meng has been in a coma and fever since that day when he went to Chang'an with Imperial Doctor Xu, and his whole body is hot, and red spots have grown on his body, just like the symptoms of smallpox.

This discovery made Imperial Doctor Xu happy and afraid, happy that the pus on the sick cow was as the emperor said, it contained smallpox virus, which could make people suffer from smallpox, but what he was afraid of was that Su Meng would die at once......

With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said: "There was a fast horse coming from Chang'an in the early morning, and Captain Su was already sober, although he was a little weak, but he was cured of smallpox." ”

After speaking, she looked at Li Yuan with admiration, he could immediately win the country and save the world as a good doctor, what an excellent man!

If there is a sparkle in a good man, then Li Yuan is already shining like gold.

"It's a pity that it's old, otherwise His Majesty the current Emperor wouldn't be so easy to usurp the throne." Picture screen said secretly in his heart.

"What's the news from the palace?" Li Yuan put on his robe under the costume of the painting screen, and asked casually.

"I heard from the messenger that His Majesty the Emperor has asked the Ministry of Industry to lead the construction of the railway, and selected 30,000 young people from the displaced people to build the railway from Chang'an to Luoyang, but it was only delayed for a few days because of the smallpox epidemic, and now Imperial Doctor Xu has declared that the cowpox planting has been successful." The painting screen smoothed the folds of the robe with his jade hand and said slowly.

"By the way, Daojun, Imperial Doctor Xu sent a private message, please take a look." Picture screen took out a yellow envelope from the desk.

The envelope was stamped and apparently unopened.

Li Yuan took the envelope and looked at it carefully, Imperial Physician Xu expressed his gratitude to him in the letter, Yunyun said that a lot of Emperor Taishang had set up a blessing for the people of the world, I heard that someone in Chang'an had already set up a shrine for him, praying for the Emperor to live a long life, etc., and the last sentence euphemistically put forward that his master wanted to ask to see him.

After folding the letter paper and putting it back in place, Li Yuan asked the painting screen, "Painting screen, who is Imperial Doctor Xu's master?" ”

Huaping glanced at Li Yuan in surprise, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Xu's master is the same Taoist priest as you, and he is the famous folk Sun Lao Immortal - Sun Simiao!" ”

"Medicine King Sun Simiao?" Li Yuan exclaimed.

Hearing the medicine king Sun Simiao, Li Yuan's shock was much worse than seeing Li Shimin. Sun Simiao's fame is so prosperous that there are still people in the Guanzhong area who are grateful to Dade in later generations, which is no less than after Jianzhen crossed to the east, and the Japanese in the seventeenth century were still popular in embroidering Jianzhen monks on the brocade.

Unlike Japan, China is a closed island country with a closed culture. For example, Tang costumes and Ming costumes are already very different.

Part of the reason for Sun Simiao's fame is that Buddhism shamelessly advertises that Sun Simiao is their medicine king Bodhisattva who went down to save people.

Is it good that people are obviously Taoist priests......

"Sun Simiao... How old are you? Li Yuan asked.

Later generations admired Sun Simiao very much, and also knew that he had a long life, and he was also at the forefront of ancient China in terms of medical skills, but his lifespan was still uncertain.

How old is Sun Simiao, who is in the ninth year of Wude?

The painting screen was about to answer, but Wu Jue immediately answered, raised his little hand and shook it in front of Li Yuan, attracting his attention, and said: "Jue'er knows, I heard my father say that Sun Lao Immortal is already over 80 years old. ”

"Eighty-three years old, to be exact." The painting screen corrected, "Daojun, Sun Lao Immortal has a great reputation among the people, especially the people in Guanzhong who have received the most treatment from him, and the portrait of Sun Lao Immortal can be seen everywhere in the medical hall on the streets of Chang'an. ”

……

In the pond on the top of Cuihua Mountain, there is an old Taoist priest with a tired face, and he was talking to people in Luoyang half a month ago. Later, he heard that Jieli Khan led 100,000 Turkic iron horsemen to Gaoling, so he hurriedly set off to Chang'an.

His disciples persuaded him not to go to Chang'an for this troubled water, after all, the Turks were extremely vicious, and when the time came, one accidentally died in the military disaster, not to mention that he was old.

But who would have thought that Sun Simiao, a native of Jingzhaohua (Tongchuan), was exactly the same as a man in Guanzhong, and he was stubborn, and he shook his sleeves and said angrily: "This time the Turks go south, Chang'an will definitely be full of displaced people, and we and other cultivators, if we can concentrate on cultivating in the mountains in the prosperous times, but when the people are in dire straits, An can retreat and close the mountains regardless of the life and death of the people?" ”

But to Sun Simiao's surprise, after coming to Chang'an, his disciple Xu Taiyi surprised him again and again, the epidemic in Chang'an was controlled, and smallpox was effectively prevented.

Sun Simiao was the first doctor to propose that prevention is greater than cure.

And these things are ...... The Emperor Taishang who is far away in Cuihua Mountain proposed!

Sun Simiao suddenly had an interest in meeting Li Yuan, but Li Yuan was the emperor after all, not a villager on weekdays, so he asked Imperial Doctor Xu to write a letter on the one hand, and on the other hand, he came to Cuihua Mountain early.
