Chapter 263: Feng Hou, I really wronged others
As soon as the eldest grandson Wuji left, Mrs. eldest grandson began to ponder. Who is the master talking about, who has such a great ability to cure smallpox?
The woman's family likes to think crankily when she has nothing to do, not to mention something, the more she thinks about it, the more excited she becomes, and the more she thinks about it, the more "deep" she thinks. The old man had just met Wang Ping'an, and they were talking about something at the dinner table, but it happened that she was not present and could not hear it. So did Wang Ping'an mention that smallpox could be cured?
She called a servant and asked, "You were serving in the hall just now, did you hear the young master of the Wang family and our master mention something, did you talk about smallpox?" ”
At the mention of smallpox, the name of this plague, when everyone talked about the tiger changing color, the servant actually shuddered, shook his head and said: "Back to Madame's words, when the master and the young master of the Wang family talked, the little ones didn't wait on the side, and I didn't hear what they said!" ”
Mrs. Eldest Sun sighed, confirmed, ten **...... Ten out of ten, it was Wang Ping'an who mentioned this matter, if he didn't talk about important things, his master would not signal the servant to retreat!
She asked again: "This Wang Ping'an, in our Chang'an, is a very famous person, what do people outside say about him, have they talked about him?" ”
The servant was stunned for a moment, and thought, "Why is Madame asking this?" Should I say it for better or for worse? He recalled in his heart that he had also heard about Wang Ping'an's deeds, a lot of good ones, but none of them were bad!
The servant was a little hesitant, and he said: "Back to Mrs. Hui's words, the young master of the Wang family is indeed very prestigious, the little one usually works on an errand in the house, and rarely goes outside to play, but he has heard it, but he is all saying good things about the young master of the Wang family, and there are no bad words!" ”
Mrs. Changsun was overjoyed, clapped her hands and said: "It's not bad at all as the old man expected, sure enough, Wang Ping'an is a good boy, how do outsiders praise him, how can you say it!" ”
It dawned on the servant that he wanted to hear good words, and that was great, so I didn't have to bother making up bad things. He hurriedly said: "The young master of the Wang family is willing to treat the poor, and he also gives mung bean porridge in the Inspiration Temple, other doctors are all treating people with medicine, but no matter who the patient is, he treats them equally, and he has the style of the ancients." Besides, he's very well educated......"
This servant praised Wang Ping'an in a big exaggerated way, and when he heard Mrs. Changsun smile, the old lady was very happy, just like listening to others praise her own children!
After listening to the servant's words, Mrs. Changsun couldn't sit still, so she went back to the back hall first, went to see the little fat boy, asked the maids to take care of her, and then changed her clothes, and asked someone to prepare the carriage, and she was going out.
I didn't go out for anything else, just to see the old sisters, casually talk about the good sons of the Wang family, and then talk about the daughters who can't get married. Don't think that the daughter of a wealthy family doesn't worry about getting married, it's really wrong, the higher the status, the more difficult it is for the daughter of the family to marry, in her old sisters' family, everyone has a girl in the family who can't get married, anyway, either they pick others, or others pick them, in short, pick and choose, pick and choose, just can't pick the right one!
Wang Ping'an, it is definitely a suitable one, the vision of the eldest grandson and old sister, can there be anything wrong!
The eldest grandson of the old family, one plans to go and tell the old sisters how suitable Wang Ping'an is to be a son-in-law, while the other wants to go to the palace and talk to his brother-in-law about how Wang Ping'an is a good courtier who helps the Tang Dynasty!
The eldest grandson Wuji entered the palace, and after the little eunuch informed him, he entered the Ganlu Hall again, and after entering the palace, he saw that the plate had just been removed from the palace, Li Shimin had already used lunch, and Li Ke did not leave, it was obvious that he was accompanying Li Shimin's lunch!
Although it is a father and son, the rules of the royal family are different from ordinary surnames, and those who can accompany the emperor to dine are the most intimate children. In the heart of the eldest grandson Wuji, except for the prince and princess born to his sister, no one has this qualification, even if it is a father and son, what can be done, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, out of the palace to open a mansion, it is a courtier, how can you enter the palace again to invite pets, it is simply a big rebellion, and there is an ambition to replace the prince!
As soon as the eldest grandson Wuji entered the hall, the color on his face was wrong, Li Ke was playing "Chenghuan on his knees", and when he saw "uncle", his face was still blue and not slippery, he knew that things were going to be bad, and he had to be trained!
Outside the palace, even if the so-called uncle of the eldest grandson Wuji, how he trained his nephew, it didn't matter, anyway, he had long been used to it. But if in front of his father, the so-called uncle said a few ugly words, so that he couldn't get off the stage, it would be really fatal. My father didn't take anyone's words to heart, but he especially listened to this uncle's words, he must not leave any bad impression in front of his father, so that it affected his possible "future" in the future!
As soon as the eldest grandson Wuji entered the hall, Li Ke said with surprise and joy: "Uncle, you are here!" He stood up, strode to the front, saluted the eldest grandson Wuji, and said: "Uncle is here, there must be something important to tell my father, and my nephew doesn't dare to disturb him." He turned to Li Shimin and said, "Father, the son will retire and go back to study!" ”
Li Shimin hummed, he knew that the eldest grandson Wuji was extremely disgusted with Li Ke, and he didn't want to see the two of them staring at each other, so he waved his hand and said: "Go back, take a look at more books on water conservancy, such as how Li Bing built Dujiangyan's book, these things are very useful, much stronger than what you read!" ”
Li Ke agreed, and bowed to the eldest grandson Wuji, and then exited the door and left the Ganlu Palace.
The eldest grandson Wuji saw that Li Ke was quite sensible, and he was quite afraid of himself, so he felt a little more comfortable, so he could be regarded as giving up. He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, you must be very strange if the old minister goes and returns, right?" ”
Li Shimin sighed in his heart, and thought: "What's so strange, you oppose next year's scientific examination question is to dredge the Grand Canal, but Ke'er is in favor, you two saw it outside the hall, you were afraid that he would move me, so I went and returned, and when I saw him with such a face, if I can't guess this, then what else can I guess?" ”
He pretended to be puzzled and said, "Yes, I am very strange, Mowgli, why are you back again, but there is something important to tell me?" After that, he waved his hand at Shi Zhongchen, who was waiting next to him, and motioned for him to move a pier over, and Shi Zhongchen immediately moved a red lacquered wooden pier and placed it behind the eldest grandson Wuji.
After thanking him for the seat, the eldest grandson Wuji sat on the pier and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something unclear and wants to ask the emperor." ”
"Alas, if you have something to say, you can just say it, Ke'er's kid is actually good, you don't always have to be difficult for him!" Li Shimin frowned, he thought that the eldest grandson Wuji was talking about this matter.
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said: "The matter of King Wu, the old minister has never liked to say much. He didn't believe it. Then he said: "Your Majesty, the old minister wants to ask, among the plagues in the world, which is the most harmful and causes the most deaths and injuries to the people?" ”
Li Shimin was slightly stunned, why did he suddenly talk about this? He didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Naturally, it is smallpox, this evil disease is so harmful and widespread that there is no second plague in the world that can be compared with it!" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and said: "The emperor sees it, can the emperor know that the smallpox disease was not originally a disease in the Central Plains, but came from the grassland?" ”
Li Shimin snorted and said: "I naturally know that the grassland is filthy, and it is they who introduced this disease to the Central Plains. ”
Speaking of smallpox, in the Tang Dynasty at that time, I am afraid that no one who read a book would not know, ordinary people may not know history, do not understand where this evil disease came from, but for politicians, how can they not know the reason? Every time this kind of evil disease occurs, the politicians are terrified, smallpox starts, and it is not only the poor who die, but also the rich, who can't hide from it, it can be said that everyone is afraid!
The eldest grandson Wuji sighed and said, "Your Majesty, do you know about cowpox?" ”
"Wuji, what's wrong with you today, why did you ask me about these things? Cowpox is a rinderpest, how could I not know! Li Shimin is very puzzled, the eldest grandson Wuji has never been a talkative person, why do you ask endlessly today!
The eldest grandson Wuji said loudly: "Your Majesty, do you know that cowpox is also a type of smallpox?" And is it a smallpox that can be transmitted to humans? ”
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, his body sat up straight suddenly, and his voice became louder, "Cowpox is smallpox?" Who said this? Mowgli, who did you hear say that cowpox is smallpox? ”
Not only was the emperor surprised, but even Shi Zhongchen, who was waiting next to him, was also shocked, smallpox disease, if the cow could also get it, then this thing could not be raised, no matter how useful the cow worked, it would be useless to take human life!
After saying this, Li Shimin suddenly said: "No, if cattle can also get smallpox, then why didn't the people of the Central Plains get it before the Han Dynasty, why did it have to wait for Hulu to come over, and the Central Plains had this kind of plague?" ”
The emperor is the emperor, Li Shimin is Li Shimin, he looks at the problem, and he can see the key point of the problem at once! Like killing all the cows in the world, this kind of stupid trick, the eldest grandson Wuji can say it in a hurry, but he can't say it, and he doesn't even think about it!
The eldest grandson Wuji finally smiled and said, "In the emperor's words, he directly saw the point that the old minister was about to say!" After the old minister dispersed today, he thought of the topic of next year's scientific examination, there are two of them, both of which are the latest current affairs......" Speaking of this, he paused, did not say any more, and coughed twice.
Shi Zhongchen is a person who understands things, as soon as he saw the appearance of the eldest grandson Wuji, he scolded in his heart: "Old bastard, you want to drive our family away, but our family doesn't serve you tea, you're thirsty!" ”
He was angry in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Your Majesty, the old slave remembered that a batch of good tea has recently come from Xingong in Lingnan, and the old slave will go and make it for the emperor and the eldest grandson!" ”
Li Shimin hummed and said, "Okay, let's go make tea!" ”
Shi Zhongchen smiled and arched his hand at the eldest grandson Wuji, and the eldest grandson Wuji nodded and smiled at him, one is the first minister, the other is the first eunuch, no one wants to offend anyone, no one can offend anyone!
After Shi Zhongchen left, the eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, one of the topics that the old minister came up with is the new disaster relief law, which is a good deed that is greatly beneficial to the court and the people, and it is appropriate to use it as a topic!" ”
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Very good, the new disaster relief law can be set as an official topic." He suddenly laughed, and said, "That's going to be cheaper for Wang Ping'an!" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji also smiled and said: "The alternative topic is related to smallpox, which is very coincidental, and it also has something to do with Wang Ping'an, he is not small to pick up!" ”
"It was Wang Ping'an who brought up the issue of smallpox, and he said that this plague can be cured?" Li Shimin's eyes were full of brilliance, if smallpox could really be cured, it would undoubtedly be a great joy for the Tang Empire!
The eldest grandson Wuji stroked his beard, shook his head and said, "It is true that Wang Ping'an mentioned this matter, but he has no way to cure smallpox!" ”
The brilliance in his eyes dimmed in an instant! Li Shimin slowly leaned his body against the back of the chair behind him, like a deflated ball, and said, "He has no cure for smallpox, why should he bring it up?" Do you want to suggest that I can't kill all the cattle in the world? ”
With a shake of his hand and a few beards, the eldest grandson Wuji grinned, thinking: "The trick of killing cattle was originally what I wanted to mention to you, and it has nothing to do with Wang Ping'an." ”
"There is no cure for smallpox, but there is a way to prevent it," he said. Wang Ping'an said this himself, who had been observing the shepherd boys in their village for almost ten years and had figured out how to prevent smallpox! ”
Li Shimin sighed, slammed the table, and said angrily: "Wuji, Wuji, how can you only talk halfway, there is a way to prevent it, isn't it better than treating it when you get sick!" If you don't finish it in one breath, it's hard to think about it......"
What he wanted to say was: Isn't Mo entertaining me? I'm embarrassed to say it, if I say this, the eldest grandson Wuji will immediately lie on the ground in fright, and it will be very boring!
Before he finished speaking, Li Shimin's face showed a smile, could it be that smallpox can really be prevented? If this is the case, how many families will be saved, and how many people will survive!
The eldest grandson Wuji saw that the emperor's reaction was exactly the same as his reaction when he heard Wang Ping'an's words, and he was very happy. He was not in a hurry to talk about cowpox, but said: "Your Majesty, if Wang Ping'an can really find a way to prevent smallpox, how are you going to reward him?" ”
Li Shimin smiled: "Wuji, you old man, you have a weird temperament." If you don't like anyone, you will endlessly say bad things about that person, and if you look at anyone, you will even ask for a reward for him in person. What's the matter, have you accepted Wang Ping'an as a disciple? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji also smiled: "If the old minister accepts him as a disciple, he will not ask for a reward for him." Your Majesty, if Wang Ping'an can really prevent smallpox, how about the marquis? ”
"Fenghou, that's wronged him!" Li Shimin touched the beard on his mouth, and said: "You can make a marquis first, and then send him to serve in front of the army. ”
