When he heard that no one died from the plague after using his methods and prescriptions, Yu Shiji couldn't help but take a breath.
As an important minister of the court, he also knew about the outbreak of plague in Xingyang County. At his age and managing affairs in the court, he knew very well how terrifying the plague was to the people.
Even though Xingyang County was very close to Dongdu and medical officers from the Imperial Medical Office were sent to help, more than ten lives were still lost during this period.
But the report actually said that after using Yang Qian's prescriptions and prevention and treatment methods, no one died again. Such extraordinary methods are really shocking.
"Yu Qing, you don't know something. Yang Qian is not a famous doctor hidden in the market, but just a young man under the age of sixteen. However, although this young man is under the age of sixteen, he is already in Xingyang County.
Quite famous..."
Yu Shiji was amazed when he heard it. "It turns out that the song "Compassion for the Farmers" was also written by this young man. It seems that I am really too ignorant."
"A young man who is well-read and able to learn what he has learned is indeed extraordinary. Fortunately, Your Majesty has a keen eye for pearls..."
Yang Guang smiled calmly and put the memorial aside.
"Now that the plague in Xingze County has been determined, the ban on Xingyang County can be lifted, but now it's time to reward according to merit. According to Yu Qing's opinion, what should be done?"
Yu Shiji saluted Yang Guang and replied sternly, "Your Majesty, how can a minister come down to comment on such a major matter of merit and reward? It should be decided by His Majesty."
"Haha, Yu Qing doesn't have to be like this. In fact, what I want to ask is Yang Qian. This man is extremely intelligent and cares about the people. Now he has made great contributions in fighting the epidemic..."
After listening to Yang Guang's words, Yu Shiji understood Yang Guang's hesitation, and after complimenting Yang Qian with two sentences, he changed his words.
"It's just that this person is too young. He is only fifteen years old. If he is given excessive rewards, he will easily attract criticism..." As he spoke, Yu Shiji kept paying close attention to Yang Guang's subtle expressions.
Yang Guang narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded with deep approval. "Yes, that's why I hesitated and couldn't make a decision."
Yu Shiji stroked his three long strands of beard, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly had an idea.
"I heard from Your Majesty that Yang Qian's father, Yang Ning, is an official of the Ministry of Industry. He can educate such an intelligent son. I think he should have some abilities."
Yang Guangruo stroked his handsome eyebrows with enlightenment. "Yu Qing is really my butt. What you say makes sense. I'm here, Yang Ning, a member of the Propaganda Department, comes to see you..."

Yang Qian stood in front of a large shop on the street in Dongshi, Yingze County, looking at the empty shop that had obviously been covered in dust for a long time, and said loudly.
"Well, I'm very satisfied, it's nice here... I didn't expect that my home in Xingze County actually has such a big shop, but why not continue to rent it out?"
"Sir, we rented to a businessman named Zhang to build a high-end restaurant before, but he just rented it and the flood came..."
Uncle Song, the housekeeper, looked at the large dusty shop and explained helplessly.
When the flood came, a businessman surnamed Zhang, who was just about to purchase items to open his business, saw that the entire Xingyang County was affected by the disaster, and Xingze County was the worst affected area.
After the catastrophe, opening a high-end restaurant here would be like squeezing in even though you knew it was a dead end.
As a result, the businessman surnamed Zhang did not even ask for the three-month deposit paid in advance, and left Xingze County directly.
In the following days, the plague was raging, and everyone was thinking about how to save their own lives all day long, and how could they think about doing business.
As a result, this store with an excellent environment and location has yet to find a suitable tenant.
Yesterday, the housekeeper, Uncle Song, chatted with Mr. Han, seeing that the situation in the mansion was in dire straits, and whether he should sell this shop.
Yang Qian was thinking about how to operate his leek box. When he heard that there was a shop, he immediately stood up.
That's why he appeared here. After a round of inspection, Yang Qian was obviously very satisfied with the location and location of this shop.
"Sir, although that box of leeks is very delicious, wouldn't it be too wasteful to sell it in such a large shop?" Seeing that Yang Qian was very satisfied, the housekeeper, Uncle Song, was still a little hesitant.
"Uncle Song, don't worry, the leek box will only be the first delicacy sold in this shop, and there will be more and more in the future." Yang Qian laughed.
This kind of confidence does not come from Yang Qian's own cooking skills, but from the speechless rewards of the Yao Mo sub system.
Yang Qian believes that this gourmet recipe for gourmet leek boxes will definitely not be the last one.
The plague has been suppressed, but the medical officers of the Imperial Medical Office are still busy dealing with the subsequent patients. With the recovery of the patients, Xingze County and even the entire Xingyang County have regained their vitality.
The news that Yang Qian, the son of the Yang family, was planning to open a restaurant in Dongshi, soon spread throughout the streets after Yang Qian, a celebrity from Yingze County, appeared in Dongshi.
However, Yang Qian was quickly summoned back to Daze Village by the servants from the mansion, because his father, who had been missing for many days, finally sent a messenger back with good news.
Mother Han, full of joy, pulled Yang Qian who had just entered the door and said impatiently.
His father, Yang Ning, was a member of the Ministry of Works. Because the flood this time affected Dongdu, his father had to work overtime with a group of officials from the Ministry of Works.
I originally wanted to send someone back to deliver a letter to inquire about the situation at home, but due to the outbreak of the plague and the ban on the surrounding areas, my father Yang Ning really had trouble sleeping and eating in Dongdu.
Yesterday, my father Yang Ning was sent to the palace. He thought that his honesty and hard work had won the favor of the emperor, but he did not expect that the emperor sent him to go because he gave birth to a good son.
He did a lot of good things in Xingze County. Even the emperor Yang Guang praised the poem "Compassion for the Farmers" because Yang Qian's prescriptions cured the plague.
Therefore, the emperor bestowed upon him thousands of catties of gold and hundreds of bolts of silk and satin, and promoted his hard-working father from the position of Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Water Affairs, a subsidiary of the Ministry of Works, to the position of Langzhong, the head of the Ministry of Works.
"Your father was summoned by His Majesty, and His Majesty personally praised my son's great achievements in Xingze County..."
"It's a pity that my son is too young and has not yet reached the age of crown. Otherwise, your Majesty might have ordered you to join the Eastern Capital."
Yang Qian felt quite emotional when he heard his mother Han's words. He really didn't expect that Chen Yiling and other medical officers in the Imperial Medical Office were real people and did not deny his own contribution.
As for the emperor Yang Guang who passed the credit to his father because he was still young, Yang Qian was not unhappy, but rather secretly happy.
As the saying goes, if a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it, let alone the Sui Dynasty, which is about to start a great political turmoil.
