Chapter 497: Cowpox Comes Out
In front of the Xuande Gate, people came from all sides early in the morning to seize the position.
A woman looked at the dense crowd in front of her and complained to her husband, "I just said come early, you see that the front is full of people, and we can't see anything." ”
"It's only five watches now, and the morning market hasn't dispersed."
The man wiped a handful of sweat, and as soon as he went out, he was dragged by the woman to trot all the way, but there was no way, the woman saw some people trotting, so she pulled him and ran away, but I didn't expect it to be late.
"The prince invented cowpox, and we don't have to be afraid of acne in the future, who doesn't want to come and see. It's all your fault, I have to lie in bed and I can't see anything. ”
The man dozed off, licked his face and said: "The Di newspaper has said that in the future, the imperial court will set up an epidemic prevention bureau to plant pox for us, you want to see it, I will take you to the epidemic prevention bureau every day in the future." I can't see it today, so let's go back to sleep. ”
The woman immediately raised her eyebrows, glared at the man, and said, "You know how to sleep, and then you will sleep to death." Today is the prince's pox, so I just came to see it. You stinky men have pox, what do I see? ”
The men next to him also broke out in a cold sweat when they heard the woman's fierce words.
"Yes, we just want to see the prince, who is rare for you ordinary people."
"What my sister said is that the prince is a god descending from heaven, and you will not show us if you strip naked."
……
There are also men who feel that their own women do not abide by women's morals, but when they see that the women around them are all echoing one by one, they all wisely shut their mouths.
"Look, the prodigal son of the Zhang family who made the hat has entered."
"Don't you see people's honor guards? It must be that the Zhang family bought a baron for the prodigal son and wanted him to enter the prince's aristocratic college. ”
The left and right sides of the Xuande Gate have been surrounded by water, but no one dares to block the royal road facing the Xuande Gate. The square in front of Xuande Gate was only accessible to officials and people with titles.
When the Imperial Forest Army saw a baron's guard of honor coming, he saluted and said, "The entourage stops, and the baron can enter the square and wait." ”
The prodigal son of the Zhang family saw the Imperial Forest Army saluting him. Suddenly, his stomach was a little higher again, and he felt that there were no white flowers in his family, so he waved his hand and said to his family: "You are all waiting outside." ”
The prodigal man turned his head to look at the envious crowd around him, and threw a wink at a few women before walking towards the Xuande Gate.
Originally, it was planned to plant cowpox early and backward, but the crowd of onlookers in front of Xuande blocked several streets, and the pressure on Kaifeng Mansion increased greatly, so Chao Gai had to let people hurry up to recruit Chao Yong.
Chao Yong heard it in advance, so he came to Xuande Gate with his own soldiers.
"Prince Chitose."
"Prince Chitose."
"Prince Chitose."
Chao Yong arrived at the Xuande Gate in the cheers of the people. With a wave of his hand, the people around him were quiet.
After waiting for a while, ceremonial music sounded in the palace, the Xuande Gate was opened, and Chao Gailong, who was dressed in a dragon robe, walked out.
"Long live our emperor"
"Long live our emperor"
"Long live our emperor"
In the sound of the mountain and tsunami, Chao Gai walked to the square in front of Xuande Gate. Lang said: "No courtesy." ”
Only then did everyone straighten up, and the barons who paid for the food saw the emperor up close, and their faces were red with excitement.
The sun just jumped out and shone in front of the Xuande Gate, and the golden dragon embroidered on the father and son of Chao Gai was more vivid.
The official of the Ministry of Rites said a word of praise to the emperor and the crown prince, and then announced that the prince had discovered cowpox to prevent acne, and the prince was the first to be vaccinated with cowpox.
The ceremony begins. The Imperial Medical Bureau takes out the cleaned cows.
People in close proximity can see pustules growing on the cow's body, which are very similar to pox. The fear of acne for thousands of years has made the people in the square in front of Xuande retreat.
Chao Yong's face did not change, and he waved at the people around him. Approaching the cow, he rolled up his sleeves and showed his strong arms.
"Prince Chitose"
"Prince Chitose"
"Prince Chitose"
Chao Yong's dashing movements provoked the surrounding women to scream again.
Antao Quandao was offended. Open the medical box and take out a shiny silver knife. A shallow wound was drawn on Chao Yong's arm, and then a little pus was taken from the cow, wiped on the wound, and then wrapped it in gauze.
The people around saw An Daoquan smearing the pus suspected of acne on Chao Yong's wound, which reduced their fear of cowpox.
After Chao Yong was vaccinated, Shi Yong took ten more personal soldiers to vaccinate, and An Daoquan also led the people of the Imperial Medical Bureau to vaccinate all of them.
The Ministry of Rites officials announced that the vaccination had been completed, and if the vaccination was successful, the prince would lead the imperial doctor to Dengzhou to inoculate the people who had not contracted acne in Dengzhou.
In the shouts of the people and the tsunami, Chao Gai and his son and civil and military officials entered the palace and started today's early dynasty.
The people gradually dispersed, and the prince risked his life in order to prevent pox from being a disaster in the world, and the first vaccination of cowpox became more and more popular.
When he arrived at the court, Chao Yong did not sit on the sidelines, and proposed to take Taixue, martial arts, medicine, and law as the four universities that were juxtaposed, and expand the enrollment of students in martial arts, medicine, and law. Each state has a judge who is responsible for adjudicating cases, and is appointed by a student of law.
The military generals have long been equal to the status of civil officials, but the status of medicine and Taixue and martial arts is equal, but it has been opposed by civil ministers. Moreover, Daliang has already made it clear that he wants to divide power, and the prime ministers have been removed, who dares to oppose the division of local civil official rights, not to mention that they are all court officials.
However, under Chao Yong's prestige, the four major academies still became the same level.
When the news of the court spread out of the palace, the city was boiling again.
The prince descended to earth, taught mathematics, physics, invented spaceships and telescopes, and could be said to be a pedantic celestial, who did not want to be a student of the prince. The fact that the aristocratic academy is sought after by the rich people in the world is a clear proof, but after all, there are only a few people who can enter the aristocratic academy, and the people of the world still have a lot of complaints about the prince's practice of opening an aristocratic college.
Now I hear that the prince is in charge of the Guozijian and lists the four schools as the four universities of Daliang, expands the enrollment, and all the scholars can apply for the examination, which is undoubtedly a chance for everyone to learn.
After the early dynasty was dispersed, Chao Yong was also afraid of a mistake. did not go to the harem to ask for peace in person, but just sent Shi Yong to ask the queen mother for peace, and then brought his own soldiers to the palace.
After entering the palace, Chao Yong locked himself in the Yanfu Hall and wrote physics behind closed doors.
Physics is more laborious to write than mathematics.
After two days, Chao Yong began to have a fever, but it was less than a day later.
Chao Yong asked Shi Yong and others to ask him again, and learned that Shi Yong and others also began to have a fever, so they knew that he had been successfully vaccinated. It's just that his body is strong and his reaction time is shorter.
Shi Yong and the others were only fine in two or three days, although the imperial doctors were not as strong as the prince's personal soldiers, they were all proficient in the way of health preservation, and their bodies were also very healthy. It's only a few days. People with fever are all fine, but there are two people who do not have a fever, and An Daoquan judged that the vaccination failed and needed to be re-vaccinated.
On the first day of June, Chao Yong led five imperial doctors to Dengzhou, and at the same time transferred hundreds of cowpox-infected cattle to various state capitals.
As soon as I entered the boundary of Dengzhou, I saw that some officers and soldiers had set up a blockade to block the road.
Enter the territory of Dengzhou. Whether it is an official road or a country road, it is rare, and the state capitals along the way put Buddha in two worlds.
Daliang was exempted from agricultural taxes and forced labor, and there were more people visiting relatives and friends. The fact that taxes are not levied repeatedly in the same state capital also allows many more businessmen to pass through the state.
In addition, the new soldiers of Daliang continue to exterminate the grass robbers in the country. Make the roads in the territory of the girder too peaceful. Although the girder has only been established for a year, it has already flourished.
After nine months of Chao Yong's southern expedition, Tokyo trained 150,000 new soldiers, all of whom were sent to various routes. Replace the surrendered Song Dynasty soldiers and horses. Although the recruits trained by Wang Jin are not as good as the Western Army, they are compared to other corrupt forbidden armies and box armies in the Song Dynasty. The combat effectiveness is high, but it is more than a notch.
When I arrived outside the city of Dengzhou, I saw many military tents set up outside the city.
Two miles from the city, patrols are much tighter.
Hu Cheng had already received the news that the prince was coming to Dengzhou, and learned that the prince's honor guard had arrived outside the city, so he hurriedly led people to greet him.
After the establishment of the Great Liang, Chao Yong knew that Hu Cheng's martial arts were not high, and he did not let Hu Cheng fight in the south and the north, but let Hu Cheng be a bandit general, exterminate the grass and the defeated troops in the territory, and most of the defeated troops have been swept away by the army that conquered the city, but Hu Cheng also accumulated military achievements and became a captain, which can be said to be a general with the smallest gold content in the Great Liang.
This time, acne suddenly broke out in Dengzhou, and Hu Cheng happened to lead his troops to go to Wang Qing's rampant state capital to suppress bandits, so he was transferred to the nearest blockade of Dengzhou.
Hu Cheng didn't dare to be pampered and arrogant, and took a group of generals to pay homage to the prince.
Chao Yong excused everyone and asked, "Can the grain allocated by the imperial court be sent to the city on time?" ”
Hu Chengdao: "Every day, soldiers who have been infected with acne will be sent to carry food into the city. ”
Chao Yong nodded and said, "Do you know the situation in the city?" ”
Hu Chengdao: "The officials in the city have separated all the neighborhoods, but almost all the neighborhoods have people who have infected with pox, and I have asked the officials and people in the city to separate the infected people from the uninfected people. However, some of the people who are not infected also fall ill from time to time, and now all the people in the city dare not go out to the streets except to go to the streets every day to receive food. They were all locked up at home, afraid of getting acne. ”
"How many people have died in the city now?"
"The total population of the city is more than 70,000 people, more than 50,000 people have contracted the disease, and now nearly 40,000 people have died."
Chao Yong frowned and said, "Why is there such a high mortality rate?" ”
"Some people get sicker because they have no one to take care of them; In some cases, the family is reluctant to leave, and finally all of them are infected; There are also many people who commit suicide after developing sores. Now the people who are sick in the city are taken care of by people who have had acne and have recovered, and the imperial court gives them a daily subsidy of 100 yuan. During this time, the number of people who have been cured of acne has gradually increased, and they have been able to take care of all those who have acne. ”
Chao Yong nodded and said, "That's good, open the city gate, and I'll take the imperial doctor into the city." ”
Hu Cheng hurriedly said: "The prince ......"
Chao Yong shook his head and said, "It's okay, I've already planted cowpox, don't be afraid of acne." ”
Chao Yong only brought ten personal soldiers and five imperial doctors who had pox into Dengzhou City.
The officials of Dengzhou City had already received the news and greeted them at the gate of the city, and when they saw the prince in a dragon robe entering the city, they all cried and lay on the ground, causing another burst of crying in the city.
From the cries of the people, everyone could hear their helplessness.
"I'm late, and I've made the people of Dengzhou suffer. The imperial court has sent a royal doctor, as long as they vaccinate you with cowpox, as long as the fever passes, you will no longer have to be afraid of acne. ”
After Chao Yong publicly planted pox in Tokyo, Hu Chengcheng spread the news to Dengzhou to appease the people.
Although the news has long been known. But when they heard the prince say that they would never have to be afraid of acne again, everyone was still excited. One by one, they cried and thanked the prince.
In order to prevent contagion, the imperial doctor did not let all the people line up to be vaccinated together, but the imperial doctor was vaccinated in different neighborhoods.
The imperial doctor inoculated those who were not sick, and Chao Yong led his own soldiers to the neighborhood where he was suffering from pox.
Hearing the noise on the other side, the people suffering from acne were also very excited, and wanted the prince to save them, but they were stopped by the people who received the imperial court subsidy.
When Chao Yong and his party appeared on the streets. The pox-stricken people fell to their knees and cried for help.
"Prince, help."
"The prince can prevent acne, and he will definitely be able to cure acne, please save us."
When Shi Yong and the others saw the situation here, their scalps were also numb. When a person with acne is cured, he will also have scars on his face, and he will look pockmarked at a glance. People who are not good are even more sores on their faces, and they are dripping with white pus, which looks very scary.
Rao is Shi Yong and the others are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and their legs are weak when they walk to the acne neighborhood.
Chao Yong walked into the crowd and looked at the faces that were extremely eager for life. I couldn't bear to tell the truth, and said, "I have already asked people to put medicine in the food distributed, you just have to eat and drink well, as long as you don't give up on yourself." It's going to be fine. ”
"Thank you for saving your life."
"Thank you for saving your life."
When the pox-stricken people heard that they were saved, they immediately prostrated themselves on the ground, and many of them were bleeding from their foreheads.
Chao Yong walked around the city before coming out of the city with his own soldiers. The royal physician stayed for vaccination.
Shi Yong couldn't help but say, "The prince really released the medicine?" ”
Chao Yong shook his head and said, "There is no cure for acne, so you can only take care of it carefully." Heal yourself slowly. However, the mortality rate of acne is not so high, and as long as they are carefully cared for, at least half of them will survive. ”
Hu Cheng had already prepared hot water for Chao Yong, and everyone who came out of the city soaked in the hot water for a long time, and then changed their clothes before passing through the outposts and really going out of the city. The changed clothes will all be burned, Chao Yong and others have planted pox, not afraid of pox, but the soldiers and horses outside the city are not seeded pox, once the pox is raging in the army, the epidemic will be serious again.
Cowpox is limited, and can only be planted for the suffering people in the city. The imperial court has already begun to artificially breed cowpox-infected cattle, and soon the state capitals will begin to grow pox.
Chao Yong returned to Tokyo and soaked in hot water in the Enfukuden for another day before coming to the Ruizhu Hall.
Hu Sanniang was already walking around on the ground, and when she saw Chao Yong coming back, she said, "The prince has come back from Dengzhou?" ”
Chao Yong nodded and said, "I came back yesterday and soaked in hot water in Yanfu Hall for a day, so as not to bring unclean things over." How are the kids? ”
Hu Sanniang smiled: "Very well-behaved, and I don't cry much." ”
Chao Yong saw that the palace maid was going to hug him, and hurriedly said: "Don't get too close to me, I'll just take a look." ”
When the palace maid heard this, she hurriedly stopped.
The two teased the child for a while, and Hu Sanniang said again: "Is my brother okay?" ”
Chao Yong nodded and said, "Well, they didn't enter the city, and no one in the army contracted acne. In a few days, the people of Dengzhou will be planted with pox, and they will be given pox. ”
Chao Yong chatted with Hu Sanniang for a while, and said, "I won't stay much today, and I'll come back in two days." ”
Hu Sanniang also knew Chao Yong's thoughts, and sent Chao Yong off with a smile.
The Tokyo elite have also started vaccinating against cowpox, but Hu Sanniang, who has just given birth, and the newborn baby have not been vaccinated.
"Daddy, Daddy"
Chao Feng had just been pushed outside the hall, and when he saw Chao Yong, he immediately shouted.
Chao Yong saw Chao Feng sitting on the tricycle he had just designed a few days ago, with a palace maid pushing behind him, followed by two palace maids on the left and right.
Chao Yong only came up with a simple pattern, and the master craftsman in the palace made it, which could not only be pushed, but also made gears that could be ridden.
"Is this car fun?"
"Yes, it's fun."
Chao Yong said to the palace maid on the side: "Has Feng'er planted pox?" ”
The palace maid hurriedly said: "It's planted, it's already overheated." ”
Chao Yong heard that Chao Feng had pox, so he walked up to Chao Feng with confidence. He also likes Chao Feng, who has been very smart since he was a child, although he can't compare to a prodigy like Fang Zhongyong, but he is also much smarter than ordinary children.
It wasn't long before Chao Yong came back from the southern expedition, but he just played with Chao Feng a few times, and Chao Feng was very close to Chao Yong. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that there are no men in the palace.
Chao Yong touched Chao Feng's head and said with a smile: "Do you still want to play?" Daddy pushes you. ”
Chao Feng's chick nodded his head like a peck of rice, clapped his hands and said, "Yes, Feng'er still wants to see cranes, cranes, cranes." ”
"Okay, Daddy will take you."
Chao Yong pushed Chao Feng through the palace for a while, and then came to the lake behind.
All the buildings in the palace were built in the era of Zhao Ji, and I have to say that Zhao Ji and his gang are definitely higher than the previous emperors in terms of pleasure. Of course, Zhao Ji's own artistic attainments are also the first emperor of the ages.
The lake behind the palace is not the water that attracts it, but the spring is dug open and the water gathers into a lake. Another embankment was built in the lake, which leads directly to the center of the lake, a stone pavilion was built in the center of the lake, and a beam was built on the embankment to lead into the lake, and the beam was set up with Maoting Gate, Hezhuang Gate, Luyan Gate, Kongcui Gate. Raised white cranes, sika deer, peacocks, every day someone carefully served, take care of the fur, although there is less wildness, but the fur is more beautiful by people.
"Crane, crane."
As soon as he arrived in the lake, Chao Feng danced and shouted.
Beautiful white cranes, sika deer, and peacocks walk on the beams in the lake, like a fairyland on earth.
Maybe Zhao Ji didn't paint here, but he never had the opportunity to come to this fairyland again.
Chao Yong carried Chao Feng into the Hezhuang Gate, allowing Chao Feng to get close to the white crane.
Usually Chao Feng came to see the crane, but the palace maids accidentally injured Chao Feng, and they couldn't afford to be guilty, so they didn't dare to let Chao Feng get close to the white crane. Chao Feng, who had close contact with the white crane for the first time, kept letting out a crisp laugh.
