PS: Thank you for the monthly pass support of the snake silent book friends, I'm so excited~~ We can also get the monthly pass~~
"Wang Jian Cheng is back!"
"Brother-in-law is back!"
The three of them spoke almost at the same time, their faces were full of surprise and excitement, especially Xiao Lori, who was still gloomy just now, and almost cheered at the moment, in her opinion, as long as her brother-in-law came back, there was nothing that could not be done, and it was not a problem at all whether smallpox was incurable.
Li Zhi also clenched his fists excitedly, he and Xiao Lori's thoughts were similar. Whether ignorant or blind, in the eyes of children, even the hope of facing trust and worship will be magnified countless times.
Li Chengqian's lifeless eyes also rekindled the light of hope at this time.
"Wang Zixin and Sun Daochang will really come?" Li Chengqian's voice trembled slightly.
Li Chengqian's psychology has changed a lot in the past few days, he feels that he has been abandoned by everyone, and no one will come to see him. He knew that smallpox would be contagious, and even if Li Shimin wanted to come to see him, his ministers would not let him come, although he understood it in his heart, but it was still difficult to accept it emotionally.
At this time, when he heard that Wang Zixin and Sun Simiao would come, he suddenly had a special feeling in his heart that Wang Zixin might be more reliable than his father.
"Marquis Jiayuan is preparing medicinal materials for the treatment of smallpox with Daochang Sun, it will take a few days to come, Marquis Jiayuan asked the villain to pass the word, Miss Xiaowu and the two highnesses should not be afraid, smallpox can be cured, don't worry too much."
In fact, the sergeant didn't think that what Wang Xiang said was true, in his opinion, these were just words of comfort, but Li Chengqian, who heard this, was all excited.
Li Zhi opened his mouth and asked, "How is my queen mother now?" ”
When he was sent here, Empress Changsun fell into a coma due to grief, sorrow, and qi attacks. Although he was in danger, he still didn't worry about the body of Empress Changsun.
Li Chengqian listened to Li Zhi's question, and also straightened his mouth and said: "Is the queen mother awake?" ”
The sergeant hurriedly nodded and said, "The queen has woken up." I heard that the Marquis of Jiayuan had a way to cure smallpox, and the whole person was much more energetic. ”
Li Zhi smiled with relief when he heard this: "That's good." Thinking about it, there will be no obstacle to the anger of Wang Jian Cheng in the queen mother. ”
"Of course, my brother-in-law can even cure smallpox." Little Lori also regained her former look, although there were still traces of tears in the corners of her eyes, but the panic and worry in her eyes had been reduced a lot, and now she was full of pride and pride.
Li Zhi was overjoyed when he saw it, and nodded again and again: "Well, Wang Jian Cheng will definitely come to save us." ”
"What did you bring us today? Smelling the real fragrance, ...... "With hope, Li Zhi, a snack goods, immediately cared about the contents of the food box."
Seeing that Li Zhi and the others were about to eat, the two sergeants packed up the food boxes they brought yesterday and bowed down to leave.
"Wow, my favorite ruffle chicken! There is also Sister Xiaowu's favorite Tangram Dim Sum! ”
"Brother Prince, and your favorite agate egg!"
"Childish slave. I'm going to eat lotus leaf chicken too! ”
Looking at the shouting Li Zhi and the little Lori, Li Chengqian had a rare smile on his face, the feelings of people in distress will always be easier to get closer, hearing the little Lori directly call Li Zhizhi Zhizhi slave, Li Chengqian not only did not feel abrupt, but had a warm feeling.
"Haha, the lotus leaf chicken can't be eaten by the young slave alone, I like to eat more than just agate eggs!"
The inconspicuous thatched hut was suddenly filled with laughter, which was particularly abrupt in Xishui Village, which was full of wailing and cursing.
No one noticed that after the two sergeants left, a sneaky figure appeared outside the grass hut, and after looking at the grass hut thoughtfully for a while, he quietly left.
……
The home remedies that Wang Xiang thought of were the herbs mentioned in a TV series he had watched before.
Although there is no scientific research to suggest that it has a therapeutic effect on smallpox, there are rumors in history that it can cure smallpox.
Not everything can be explained scientifically, and many folk remedies for curing diseases cannot be explained scientifically but are very effective. Since the rumor that the grass can be used to treat smallpox can be passed on to future generations and can still be used in TV dramas, there is a reason.
It is now late autumn, and most of the plants and trees have withered. Fortunately, even if the rhizome of the grass is withered, it also has medicinal effects, this grass is very easy to grow and reproduce quickly, it is not difficult to find, and almost every common people's house will grow a few clusters of grass near the wall.
As soon as Li Er heard that it might be effective in treating smallpox, he immediately sent a large number of people out to find this herb.
It was cowpox and weed, a large number of sergeants were dispatched from the palace, and Chang'an City was jumping for a while.
The sergeants rushed to the houses of the cattle keepers, and without saying a word, rushed to the cattle pen, squatted down to look at the milk, and when they saw the puss that Wang Xiang had said, they threw down a piece of silver and asked the cattle to be pulled away.
Ordinary people mostly trade copper coins when they have seen such a large ingot of silver, watching the sergeant pull the ox away, they were surprised and happy, surprised why the sergeant wanted to pull away his own cattle, happy that such a large ingot of silver is enough to buy several cows.
Some sergeants rushed into the people's houses and went straight to the corners, and when they saw the withered weeds, they collected all the weeds.
"Your cattle were pulled away?"
"Your family too?"
"Yes, I still have a silver ingot of fifty taels left, which is enough to buy several cows."
"No, fifty taels of silver! Why didn't you take my cattle? I just pulled some dry grass from the corner of my house, and I didn't see a single copper coin. "Some people are envious and jealous.
"Who knows, what do you say those military masters are squatting to watch, why do I think they seem to be looking at the milk of our cows......"
Although the people of Chang'an rarely go out to contact people because of smallpox, everyone can't help but whisper to their neighbors about such a strange thing.
Wang Xiang didn't know if the cowpox would be invalid, so he asked people to directly bring the cow with cowpox.
One by one, the cattle were led into the palace by the soldiers, and the front of the Taiji Hall was originally a wide martial arts arena, and when encountering large-scale pilgrimages and other things, hundreds of civil and military officials from all over the country stood on this martial arts arena.
But now, the martial arts arena is a mooing cow.
Everyone followed Wang Xiang down the martial arts arena, squatted down and looked at the milk like him, and there were indeed small pus pockets on it, which looked exactly the same as the symptoms of smallpox patients.
At that moment, many people couldn't help but take a few steps back, their faces a little ugly.
Sun Simiao, instead of retreating, came closer to observe: "This is what you call cowpox?" ”
Wang Xiang nodded.
"It's true that the symptoms are quite similar to smallpox, but why this cowpox is born near cow's milk, if you don't say it, I'm afraid no one will find out."
Why cowpox was born near cow's milk Wang Xiang didn't know, the reason why he knew about cowpox was also heard from others, and it was the first time he saw the real thing.
Naturally, the cow was pulled in to inoculate cowpox, but no one dared to try this kind of thing, even Cheng Yanjin, who was not afraid of heaven and earth, twisted his body and hid back.
"I'll do it." Sun Simiao said lightly.
Wang Xiang was suddenly in awe, got up and saluted solemnly to Sun Simiao: "In ancient times, Shennong tasted a hundred herbs, and now there is a medicine king who tries cowpox, and the name of the medicine king is well deserved, and the kid admires it." ”
Li Ermian, who was pulled back a few steps by the eldest grandson Wuji, jumped slightly, and said in his heart: This kid has never had such heartfelt respect in front of me, but the title of the medicine king is really in line with Sun Daochang. (To be continued......)
