After finally finishing their meal, Xiaodong and Lengzi came in and removed the tables and food, leaving only one table in front of Xiao Han and Sun Simiao.
After brewing two cups of Xiao Han's special fried tea on the table, Daniel came over and lit a stick of fine sandalwood in the incense burner, and then left respectfully.
The door slowly closed, and now only Xiao Han and Sun Simiao were left in the room. The hot tea and sandalwood in front of them mixed together, creating a strange smell in the room.
Xiao Han and Sun Simiao sat face to face, kneeling down. This was a formal matchmaking specification. Xiao Han had heard of it, but had never tried it.
There is no way, when Old Man Hua comes to Xiao Han, he usually starts talking before finishing a few words! As for Li Shimin and the others, they mostly talk about things at the wine table. As for the others... considering Xiao Han's lazy temperament, he still There is really little contact with outsiders.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. Sun Simiao did not show any surprise as Xiao Han imagined. It seemed that on the way from Hanzhong, the fat cook had already served him fried tea.
Putting the tea cup on the table, Sun Simiao raised his head, looked at Xiao Han and said: "Xiao Hou, a few days ago, I have compiled all the information about malaria and sent it to Chang'an. In addition, malaria attacks often occur in Sichuan, and Yuan Dake also I have sent someone to make a copy and send it to Li Xiaogong in the south, hoping it can help him."
After hearing this, Xiao Han nodded and replied with a smile: "That's very good. Master Sun understands the pros and cons of these things better than the boy, and he is more thoughtful when doing them."
Sun Simiao smiled and said: "Haha, Xiao Hou is too modest! You are the one who can selflessly dedicate your methods, which is even more admirable."
Xiao Han shrugged his shoulders, made a strange look and said: "Pluck a hair and benefit the world, why don't you do it? Besides, this is not the result of you alone! You, as well as the officials and people of Hanzhong City are all great contributors." ."
"Haha, people will decide this matter!" Seeing that Xiao Han was neither arrogant nor impetuous, Sun Simiao said to him with a look of appreciation on his face and smiled.
Then, Sun Simiao paused and said: "There is one more thing that you may not know. A few days ago, the messenger sent by Li Xiaogong to Chang'an passed through Hanzhong and left a message: saying that they were approaching Lingnan at this time, but the weather in Lingnan Rainy and humid.
Many of the disciples in Guanzhong he brought were not used to it. Some of them had rotten hands and feet, and the itching was unbearable! This would cause a great loss in combat effectiveness, so everyone was asked to think of ways to see if they could come up with any clever strategies. I wonder if you, Marquis Xiao, How to see it?"
"This..." Xiao Han touched his cheek, pondered for a moment, and then said to Sun Simiao with some embarrassment: "There is really nothing we can do about this kid. As far as I know, this disease is also a tiny fungus similar to malaria." Caused by it, if you want to treat it, you have to find a way to kill these things! And I really don’t know how to kill these things quickly without hurting my feet."
"Oh..." When Sun Simiao heard this answer, he nodded thoughtfully, and then asked again after a moment: "Then, what about other than this method?"
"Perhaps, it would be okay to make the environment unsuitable for them to survive!" Xiao Han thought for a while and said: "These little things appear because of the humid environment, so it should be okay to keep your hands and feet dry!"
"In this way..." Sun Simiao lowered his head and thought for a while, and then suddenly, as if by magic, he took out a pen and paper from his arms, and began to write something with his head down.
Xiao Han looked forward strangely and found that the pen Sun Simiao was holding was a graphite pen that was only used in his own family! He couldn't help but sigh to himself: These prodigal sons spread everything to the outside world!
"Keep dry and look for herbs to soak your feet on the spot! Well, these two are the only ones? No more?" Sun Simiao had already finished writing on the paper and raised his head to ask Xiao Han.
Xiao Han touched his nose and said, "No, I'm not very familiar with this either..."
"What about the miasma? Is there any way?"
"Forehead……"
It can be seen that Sun Simiao is using himself as Baidu's messenger! Miasma is almost extinct in later generations, and I have only seen it a few times in books. How could he possibly cure such an awesome thing?
Sighing, Xiao Han said to Sun Simiao: "There is really nothing we can do about the miasma. It seems to be poisonous gas emitted by marsh gas, mud, leaves and rotten grass. The toxicity is different every time, so we can only avoid it in advance! However, I heard that
Things only appear in specific places and at specific times. When passing through dense forests, find a local to guide you and be careful!"
"Well! General Li should know these things. We don't need to elaborate on them." After wrapping up the graphite pen and putting it aside, Sun Simiao smiled kindly at Xiao Han. It seemed that he was very satisfied with Xiao Han's answer.
Seeing that Sun Simiao was sitting down and seemed to have stopped asking, Xiao Han quickly moved forward and asked the question that had been bothering him for a long time: "Daozhang Sun, you seem to be very familiar with the emperor and these generals?"
"this……"
Sun Simiao may not have thought that Xiao Han would ask this question. He was startled for a moment, then slowly looked out the window, as if he was recalling something, and said slowly: "Speaking of which, in the previous Sui Dynasty, I had been in and out of the palace.
I got to know the emperor at that time, but he was just a minister in front of Yang Guang at that time. What impressed me deeply about him was his good temper. No matter how angry and humiliating Yang Guang was, he would never get angry."
"Ah? Is it because of this?" Hearing what Sun Simiao said, Xiao Han was immediately disappointed.
He thought that Sun Simiao saw Li Yuan's potential and got to know him, but he didn't expect that he just saw Li Yuan as honest and pitiful...
"That's not..." Sun Simiao looked at Xiao Han's disappointed look, smiled and shook his head, and then said to him: "It was just a simple impression at that time! Later, the emperor was sent to Jinyang. And my Taoist disciple Yuan Dao
My brother made a mistake while drunk, and the rumor that Li was the emperor started again! For this reason, all the Li Xings in the court suffered a great disaster! The emperor was in Jinzhong. After getting the news, he relied on greed to accept bribes and defiled himself, so he went into hiding.
After a calamity! Only then did I discover the emperor’s wisdom.”
"What? Li Shi is the emperor? This sentence is actually true?!" Xiao Han didn't hear Sun Simiao say that Li Yuan was pretending to be crazy. When he heard the first half of the sentence, he was stunned and stared at Sun Simiao with his eyes.
, as if trying to distinguish whether his words were true or false.
It’s no wonder that Xiao Han was so surprised. After all, anyone who has studied history knows that there is a clear passage in the history books of the Tang Dynasty: At a time when the world was in chaos, the surname Li suffered great misfortune because of a prophecy. Only the one who truly fulfilled the prophecy
Li Yuan hid!
However, many people in later generations believed that this was deliberately fabricated by Li Yuan in order to promote the legitimacy of his accession to the throne! Now that he heard this true sentence, how could Xiao Han not be moved?
Sun Simiao was a little confused about Xiao Han's sudden reaction. This matter was not a secret, everyone in the Tang Dynasty should know it!
"Yes, this sentence has always been there!" Sun Simiao nodded and replied.
"It's true!" Xiao Han rolled his eyelids and almost fell over.
Sitting up in a hurry, Xiao Han looked at Sun Simiao with bright eyes and said, "Then who said this? Brother Yuan Dao, it was Yuan Tiangang who said it?!"
