The fifty-seventh chapter cowpox shocked the world (1)
"My lord... my lord..." Xu Xi stumbled up to Zhao Xin early in the morning, paused and reported: "It's done! It's done! It's done!" "The technique taught by the lord is done!"
He was so happy that he was almost incoherent, so much so that even his demeanor had been completely lost, and his whole person was as crazy as a madman.
"Xu Yuanshi, get up first..." Zhao Xin asked Gan Zhaoji to step forward and help the Imperial Medical Officer who was almost dancing because of excitement: "Speak slowly... don't be in a hurry..."
"My lord..." But Xu Xi refused to get up, and knelt on the ground, crying and laughing at the same time: "The technique you taught is a magical technique, and everyone who inoculates the vaccine will...
Luojia has recovered..."
"Pox disease can no longer kill people!"
"All parents in the world have no worries from now on!"
Pox, also known as the smallpox virus in the textbooks of later generations, is now the number one killer of infants and young children in the Song Dynasty.
Even for adults, once infected, the mortality rate is more than 30%!
Even if the disease is cured by luck, the patient will have a face full of acne for the rest of his life.
Therefore, the name of acne causes people to change their temper and become frightened.
What's even more terrible is that this terrible infectious virus never treats everyone equally regardless of status, nobility, nobility, nobility or common people, Chinese nobles or barbarian beasts.
But now, Xu Xi has witnessed with her own eyes that this terrible disease has ended due to the method taught by Duke Shou.
He had just returned from the pox hospital secretly set up by the Imperial Medical Bureau in a valley outside Bianjing City. Throughout April, Xu Xi was conducting experiments on the vaccination method there.
He followed the method taught by the Duke in front of him and carried out every step meticulously.
So, the experiment was a complete success!
The three batches of 'pox people' recruited in the pox hospital all recovered safely after using the cowpox method.
A miracle happened just like this.
Xu Xi was shocked, awed, worshiped, and ecstatic...
Even Liu Yongnian and Gan Zhaoji, who knew what Xu Xi was responsible for, were flushed with excitement and wanted to congratulate, but they couldn't even say anything.
no way!
Among the lives taken away by pox, there were also their childhood friends and even clan brothers.
Only Zhao Xin remained as calm as ever, because he had expected this.
Vaccinia is a safe and effective smallpox vaccine that has been scientifically proven by later generations.
In Zhao Xin's previous life, after he came to the throne as an adult, he ordered Xu Xi to study cowpox prevention techniques and achieved success.
Now, it's just a matter of doing what we've done before.
Naturally, there is no disturbance in my heart.
"Does Father already know?" He asked calmly.
"Reporting to the Duke, I have sent people to report the good news to the officials..." Xu Xi kowtowed and said, "I will come to the Duke to report this matter to the Duke..."
"Then Envoy Xu Yuan missed a great opportunity to be promoted..." Zhao Xin said with a smile.
Naturally, for such a thing, whoever runs to the front of the emperor first will be rewarded by the officials.
Moreover, it must be promoted to a higher position.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, all officials within the state system had the opportunity to be at the top.
Even a craftsman officer, as long as he is outstanding enough, can get a special commission, a fish bag, or even a title such as defense envoy, observation envoy, Jiedu envoy, or governor.
It was such a big event like this, and the officials of the current government were famous for their grandeur in this regard.
The first person to report the good news will definitely be allowed to serve Fei. If Xu Xi goes to report the good news in person, he can at least get the title of observer.
Although it is of no great use, the salary will definitely increase significantly, and the status and treatment after becoming an official in the future will be better.
"How dare I take credit and ask for rewards?" Xu Xi kowtowed and said, "This is all due to the grace and might of God, the Duke of our country!"
"The envoy of the hospital is wrong..." Zhao Xin calmly pointed out the flaws in Xu Xi's words: "Grace comes from above, virtue comes from heaven. This is all the kindness of the father and emperor, and heaven is moved by heaven.
Just hand in hand..."
Zhao Xin knows her father too well.
You know, this official doesn't care about anyone else, he only cares about one thing - status!
That is to say, Zhao Xin, as his only son, can be unscrupulous. No matter what he does, he will not care about it and take it to heart.
But if other people think that they can do the same, they are totally wrong.
No matter how good-tempered an official is, he is still a king. When the king is angry, he bleeds and drifts away!
Zhao Xin stood up and told Liu Yongnian: "Let's go to Yanhe Hall with Gu to express our congratulations to our father and the Song Dynasty Sheji!"
As soon as the cowpox method came out, Zhao Xin already knew that he could officially step onto the stage of power.
From today on, everyone in the world, including the people in the imperial city, including the civil servants and military officials of the twenty-two prefectures, counties, and even the emperors and ministers of Yuan Hao, the emperors and ministers of the Liao Kingdom, and even the Tubo, Uighurs, and Jiaozhi,
Korea.
Everyone must open their eyes wide and face his existence carefully.
And Zhao Xin will also decisively use all the political means, methods and the power in his hands that he knows, and give a profound lesson to all those who dare to provoke or challenge him!
Let them know that the Song Dynasty has awakened, and China must not be insulted!
Because of his presence, the Song Dynasty will be completely different from now on.
So, under Gan Zhaoji's service, Zhao Xin put on brand new robes and a small tiara specially made for him by the ceremonial court.
Then, surrounded by everyone, he got on the carriage specially customized since he was born.
So, in the spring square, flags were flying, music and harps were played, and the ceremony was majestic.
Just at this time, several civil servants entered the palace from Donghua Gate and were about to go to the Political Affairs Hall. Suddenly, they heard majestic drums and harp sounds coming from Chunfang next to Daqing Hall.
"This..." Someone who had been an official during the Zhenzong period said in surprise: "The prince is the ceremonial guard when he goes on tour!"
Since Zhenzong, it has been difficult for the country to have heirs. The grand tours of princes that people often saw during the reigns of Taizu and Taizong have gradually become less known.
Especially after today's official family takes the throne, the country has not heard of the prince's appearance for more than ten years.
Unexpectedly, he would be lucky enough to meet again today. The official was immediately moved and burst into tears: "God is lucky to my lord! God is lucky to be my lord!"
It feels so good to have an heir to the throne!
There is no way, civil servants cannot live without two things.
The first is their official position, which is their lifeblood.
The second one is the object of allegiance. If they don’t even have the king, then they will be worse off than the Yi and Di barbarians!
Didn’t Mencius say that?
Without a king and a father, he is just a beast!
Therefore, later Lu Xun said that although the braids on some people's heads were cut off, the braids in their hearts were still there.
Nowadays, the entire Song Dynasty, and it can even be said that everyone in the entire Northeast Asia region has a braid in their hearts and heads called: Junfu.
A monarch, to many people, is more than just the king of a country.
Or their spiritual sustenance and hope.
This is especially true for Confucian officials!
only……
Seeing the prince and his team coming out of Chunfang with great momentum, these officials suddenly looked at each other: "Isn't Duke Shou only two years old?"
"According to the regulations, the prince who has not left the cabinet cannot have special orders and cannot leave the cabinet at will!"
"What's more, the Duke of the country is the foundation of the country! He cannot leave the cabinet without a purpose or a major event!"
"Could it be that..." They all looked towards the direction of Yanhe Hall.
So they knew that a major event concerning the country had happened.
