However, when Cai Dao and Cai Laoru played chess, Comrade Lao Ru actually did not win even a game of chess against him.

Of course, Cai Dao is not a nine-dan master, and there are also reasons why Cai Dao's gameplay is slightly different from this era. But the main thing is the relationship between the two sides with different visions.

In later generations, chess was just one of Cai Dao's few hobbies, and he had seen a lot of games and chess games on the Internet and books. Comrade Lao Confucian's chess strength is very powerful, and it cannot compare with the chess skills accumulated by later generations after thousands of years.

As a result, Cai Dao once again cocooned freely, and in addition to teaching courses, he became the chess teacher for all students.

……

People sit at home, or from heaven.

Cai Dao had heard this a long time ago and said it a few times, but what he didn't expect was that now this sentence fell on his head.

At the end of the sixth year of Wonbong, an unusually huge disaster swept through the entire Gyeonggi region.

At the end of this year, I don't know when and where, smallpox gradually became epidemic around Bianliang City. Smallpox is a virulent infectious disease caused by the smallpox virus that infects humans. This is a more authoritative explanation that Cai Dao has seen from Du Niang. In the era in which he lived, this disease was, and was the only infectious disease in the world, that was eliminated by mankind.

Looking at the explanation, you can know that when this disease was first spreading, it was silent, but once it spread, its speed and intensity were extremely rapid. The fatality rate is quite high, and it is very infective to young children, which is the main reason for the high mortality rate of this disease.

At first, it was just a rumor, but once the rumor became a reality, people were afraid. Those who have the ability immediately took all their families and avoided them to the countryside, after all, the flow of people in Bianliang City is too frequent, and staying here is very easy to be infected. In order to survive, the mercenary merchants and nobles of the family were unwilling to continue to stay in this dangerous place, even if they made less money.

More than a dozen of the students in Cai's Academy were picked up by their parents, such as Cao Xiu'er and Cai Zhao, and the rest were the sons of some businessmen.

Since Cai You entered the nursery school, he has followed his third brother and has never returned home. Cai Jing, as the governor of Kaifeng, naturally could not leave his post without permission, but this did not prevent him from sending his wife and children back to his hometown for refuge. But what Cai Jing couldn't understand was that this eldest son didn't know if he was really dedicated to the Tao now, or for some other reason, he was unwilling to leave Cai's Academy.

On the contrary, Wang Bei, Cai Dao's second uncle, I don't know if he really has confidence in himself, or if he doesn't care about Wang Di's heir at all, such a big thing happened around Bianliang City, even the officials in Ba Fujian have gotten the news, but there is no news from him, since Wang Di entered Beijing, he has never sent anyone to Bianliang City to deliver the news.

For those parents who came to pick up their children, Cai Dao did not stop them.

Actually, they don't have to be so panicked.

At the beginning of Cai Dao's opening of this school, which was all for children, he naturally thought that he would encounter such a change. Therefore, the purpose of raising cows in the school is not only to drink milk, but more importantly, to find cowpox among these cows.

In the sixth year of Yuanfeng, a month after the start of school, Cai Dao only took seven days, and the entire school of 7,000 children was vaccinated, and he quietly vaccinated all the children. If it is other diseases, such as measles, chickenpox, and flu, Cai Dao will really be helpless, but if it is smallpox, Cai Dao will sit back and relax.

However, this kind of thing cannot be explained to the parents of the children at all, and Cai Dao does not want to throw his hole cards now.

After so many twists and turns, Cai Dao has recognized the urine nature of Song Shenzong and the conservative ministers, and a fool will give them his own things. Doing wedding dresses for others, anyway, Cai Dao will not do it in the future.

If the human rights activists knew Cai Dao's thoughts, they would definitely scold Cai Dao for being shameless, and for his own selfish interests, he didn't care about the ordinary people of the Great Song Dynasty at all.

What is the common life?

The people of the fart, the people of the fart.

That's the people and people of their old Zhao family, their old Zhao family doesn't care about these, Cai Dao, an eight-year-old child, can take care of so much!

What's more, if Cai Dao handed over the method of planting pox, who would remember him as a child who donated prescriptions.

Song Shenzong or Sima Guang, or even the Empress Dowager Gao in the palace, would definitely put this credit on their own heads.

In doing so, Cai Dao has quietly saved the lives of more than 7,000 children. He definitely ate well, slept well, and didn't have any mental burden.

It's a pity that Cai Dao wanted to hide, but the matter just found the head of this seemingly irrelevant person.

In the first month of the seventh year of Yuanfeng, there was bad news in the palace that the ten sons and seven daughters of Song Shenzong died at the same time.

The mother of the tenth son is Mrs. Guo, and when she hears the title, she knows that this woman has no status in the palace, but the seventh daughter is the daughter of Concubine Lin Xian, last year, she was just a beauty (the grade of a woman in the palace), she just added another son to Song Shenzong, the twelfth son Zhao Yu.

When it comes to her power, status, and degree of favor in the palace, this Concubine Lin Xian is second only to Empress Dowager Xiang and Concubine Zhu De, the biological mother of Zhao Maid.

Compared with her background, Concubine Lin Xian is naturally inferior to Queen Xiang, who is the great-grandson of Prime Minister Xiang Min during the Zhenzong period. Concubine Lin Xian, a native of Nanjian, the granddaughter of the third envoy Lin Te, and the daughter of Si Nongqing Lin Zhu. However, Concubine Zhu De dramatically had three fathers, her biological father's surname was Cui, and her stepfather's surname was Zhu, and her mother later entrusted her to a relative surnamed Ren to raise.

This point is also somewhat similar to Fan Zhongyan, Fan Zhongyan's biological father's surname is Fan, his adoptive father's surname is Zhu, Dazhong Xiangfu for eight years, Fan Zhongyan used the name "Zhu Shuo" at that time, and he was on the list, and he was ranked 97th in the B family.

As for why these two children died, if it were the past, people would at most sigh in private. After all, Song Shenzong's heirs have always been a little difficult, before the crown prince Zhao Maid, he had already died a lot of children, and even Empress Xiang's only daughter did not live long. But at this point in time, it has to make people think deeply.

This time, the news in the palace was very strictly blocked, but those who were interested naturally guessed that the two children were likely to be infected with smallpox at the same time. All of a sudden, rumors spread, inside and outside the palace, and the entire Bianliang City became noisy.

Since then, the number of people who leave the capital every day and who want to leave the capital has increased.

However, the panic did not spread to the Cai Academy, and its interior has been quiet.

There are not many people who know, Cai Dao, Hua Qiyi's brothers, and Zeng Gong, of course they will not tell these ignorant children about this situation. However, even if Cai Dao tells these children the truth, there will probably not be much commotion among them. Because this has become his second home, it is even much safer than his original home.

Of course, this is also because most of the parents of the remaining children are poor.
