Just when Shen Xi thought that it was the old man who was suspected of being Qincha and returned, when people came in, he realized that he had guessed wrong, and it was Han County Ling and Xia Zhushu and others who were supposed to be waiting outside the North City Gate to greet Qincha.

"Master Zhixian, the woman has asked you to say goodbye."

Hui Niang hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Han Xian Ling took a look inside the pharmacy, and was slightly relieved to see that there was no one he imagined, and stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Lu Sun, this official asked you, but there are unusual people coming in today?" ”

Hui Niang's face was at a loss.

She had been busy all morning, and she had seen a lot of people who had come to ask for medicine, and she had no unusual people who she could remember at all.

"Back to the words of the county master, the women did not notice it."

Hui Niang lowered her head and replied.

Han Xie sighed: "This is strange, it stands to reason that it should be time to arrive, either from the north of the city into the city, or from elsewhere...... Master Xia, hurry up and send someone to visit the city, no matter what, you have to find someone. ”

After saying that, Han County Ling left the pharmacy with Xia Zhushu and others, which made Hui Niang a little baffled.

After everyone had walked away, Hui Niang turned her head to look at Zhou: "Sister, have you noticed that there is anything special?" ”

Zhou suddenly slapped his forehead and said: "At that time, Han Wazi said that the school did not attend classes, and as soon as he came back, he behaved mysteriously, and I asked him to read the recipe, but he ran out of the store and said that an old gentleman had come, and said that the person might be Qincha...... Could it be that the county master is looking for that person? ”

Hui Niang was taken aback.

How can it be said that Qin Cha also represents the supreme imperial power, and she actually came to visit the small pharmacy without making a sound, she was so ignorant that she was busy entertaining guests.

Hui Niang was a little anxious: "What can I do about this, if the reception is not good, I'm afraid it will not be easy to explain to the yamen." ”

Shen Xi was a little disapproving: "Aunt, you haven't done anything wrong, why worry?" Now the uneasy person should be the magistrate of the county, he greeted Qin with great fanfare, and he was also subdued into the city to inspect the people's customs, if there is any problem in the city, it may be difficult to protect it. ”

"What do you know?"

Zhou scolded Shen Xi, and then said to Hui Niang, "Sister, you put your heart back in your stomach, Qin sent to come, we really didn't do anything wrong, I'm afraid he will do something!" ”

Shen Xi stuck out his tongue, the meaning was obvious, mother, you scolded me, and in the end, didn't you express the same as me?

In the afternoon, the business of the pharmacy somehow turned out to be much lighter, and Shen Xi didn't need to help now, so he practiced copying calligraphy in the shop.

At dusk, a lot of people suddenly came outside, not only people from the government, but also a large number of people followed behind to watch.

Shen Xi noticed that the momentum was not right, and took the initiative to greet the door, at this time, the old man he had seen in the morning was still the same as in the morning, but the people who followed him all showed the guy, and the cold light flickered and pierced people's eyes. Han County Lingzuo was by his side, but he smiled and arrived at the door of the pharmacy as he spoke.

"The Lord of the Wine Festival came this time, which is the luck of Ninghua and the blessing of the officials. If the Lord of the Priest sends anything, the ruler must do his best. Han Xie said attentively beside him.

The old man's face was full of emotion: "The old and decrepit people who have entered the earth are now worshipping the old man and returning to his hometown without trust, and he no longer records the name of the dynasty." This time, the plague was prevalent in the coastal areas of Lingnan, and His Majesty was very worried in Beijing, so he sent the old man to inspect. ”

Shen Xi heard this next to him, and thought about it carefully, could it be that this was Xie Duo, a great writer who was as famous as Li Dongyang in the middle of the Ming Dynasty?

When the old man stepped forward, Hui Niang and Zhou stepped forward to salute.

Han Xie introduced on his behalf, and sure enough, as Shen Xi thought, this old man was indeed Xie Duo, the former Nanjing Guozi priest Xie Mingzhi, who had already paid tribute to Shi and was currently idle in his hometown of Taoxi, Taiping.

The poetry and literati of the Ming Dynasty, if they are famous, they naturally cannot be compared with the famous masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, and there are only a few literary scholars in the entire Ming Dynasty, including Xie Duo.

Shen Xi doesn't know much about Xie Duo, and all he remembers is that this person is one of the "Seven Sages" of Yanshan, who has entered the official career three times, and the sentence "Lovesickness is not as good as double flying birds, and flowers fall at the head of the red rain stream" is his handwriting.

"Mr. Xie, this is the goddess doctor Lu Sun, who is praised by the people...... After the death of her husband, she took care of the pharmacy alone, and was able to help her neighbors by planting pox, and the people were grateful for her kindness, and even sent a plaque to show her appreciation. ”

Although Xie Duo refused to call himself a courtier, he was after all the emperor's envoy, plus Xie Duojian was in the emperor's heart, and he had a good relationship with the emperor's close minister Li Dongyang, Han Xie was respectful and behaved extremely docile.

Xie Duo smiled and nodded, looked at Hui Niang and said, "The old man came to visit in the morning, but unfortunately there were too many people who came to ask for medicine, and the old man couldn't bear to disturb it." Before that, I had written to the imperial court, asking Your Majesty to follow the method of planting pox in Fujian and promote it in the south and north of the Yangtze River. In the future, the plague will not recur, so that the people of Li will suffer and His Majesty will be worried. ”

Xie Duo entered the pharmacy and inquired in detail about the process of planting pox, although the method of planting pox has been fully promoted in the land of Tingzhou Mansion, but the method is slightly different. Xie Duo asked very carefully, Hui Niang answered them one by one, and Xie Duo even took notes in person and prepared to play the court according to the facts.

This shows that Xie Duo attaches great importance to the matter of pox.

After Xie Duo asked about the situation, he said that he would personally test the pox and turn back to explain it to the emperor in detail. But this stumped Hui Niang, who is a female streamer, and there are many inconveniences.

Xie Duo asked in surprise: "Mrs. Lu was in the pharmacy before, what should I do when I meet a man?" ”

Hui Niang didn't answer, but Han Xie next to her opened her mouth to explain: "It's through the screen that this child can get rid of illness and save people." ”

Because Han Xie had already asked for the details earlier, he knew that in fact, the men who came to the city to plant pox did not know that behind the screen, it turned out that a six-year-old child was giving them treatment.

Otherwise, these people will definitely doubt Shen Xi's professionalism in planting pox.

Xie Duo couldn't help but smile dumbly when he heard this, looked at Shen Xi a few times, nodded slightly, and had a look of approval: "Then just bother this little brother to sow pox for the old decay." ”

Han Xie hesitated: "This ...... I'm afraid this is not appropriate, I have already sent someone to learn the method of pox in detail earlier, so I might as well let the doctor in the city who is more proficient in pox inoculation come to inoculate Mr. Xie. ”

"You don't have to. Since the old man came, he had to see what was going on with the pox at the beginning, if it was too perfunctory through the hands of others, and this little brother could plant pox for so many people, is the old man more precious than the body of the people in this world? Come, you don't need a screen, you can just demonstrate on the spot. ”

Shen Xi had no choice but to demonstrate in person.

Fortunately, there were cowpox sores that he kept in a simple petri dish before, which was also for the convenience of future access, after all, only when smallpox was overflowing, there would be sick cows, and this culture liquid could only be carefully stored in case of emergency.

When Shen Xi used a needle to break Xie Duo's arm and plant cowpox for Xie Duo, Xie Duo kept watching carefully, and his mouth was amazed. When the needle was over, Xie Duo looked at Hui Niang and asked, "Is this okay?" ”

"Yes."

Hui Niang nodded and explained, "After the pox, it varies according to the body, if the weak person may have a few days of physical discomfort, but it can be cured in a few days, and the long one can be cured in ten months, and then there will be a plague flood, which can almost protect it from the erosion of the disease." ”

Hui Niang didn't say anything.

After all, planting cowpox is not foolproof and will definitely not be infected, otherwise if there are one or two exceptions, she can't afford to be investigated by the court.

Xie Duo bowed slightly, and at this time, the attendants he had brought with him bandaged his arms with white gauze, just to prevent the wound from becoming infected.

After that, Xie Duo praised Hui Niang's kindness in curing the disease and saving people, and praised Hui Niang a little embarrassed, so she got up and left. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
