The Tang Dynasty started from saving Empress Changsun

Chapter 305 Nasty
Sun Simiao vaccinated more than [-] people with vaccinia, and then expressed apologetically that the liquid medicine was used up, and the remaining people should wait for the collective vaccination later.

The people who were vaccinated were proud of themselves, but fortunately they stood up quickly.Those who didn't have their turn regretted it. If they knew it earlier, they would have taken the lead, and if they hesitated, they would lose.

But the emperor and more than [-] ministers were vaccinated, and the effect was indeed obvious, which completely dispelled everyone's doubts.

There is only one thing that everyone cares about now, when will the universal vaccination start.

Li Shimin was very satisfied with the effect, so he said: "It takes time to make the medicine, but you are all pillars of the court, so naturally you don't have to wait so long."

"I will give priority to making a batch of liquid medicine to vaccinate Zhuqing and Zhuqing's family members. It won't take too long, and we can start in half a month at most."

The officials immediately felt relieved, and said gratefully: "Thank you for the grace of the saint, I have repaid the grace with all my heart."

After retiring from the court, Sun Simiao did not rest, but went to the harem to inoculate people.

When he said that the liquid medicine was used up, he meant that the medicine in his medicine cabinet was used up.Li Shimin has several bottles in his hand, which are specially reserved for use in the palace.

Even the people in the palace are divided into different classes, and not all people can be vaccinated today.

In fact, only a small group of people like Changsun Wugou needed Sun Simiao to do it himself, and the others could only wait for the follow-up medicine to arrive and the imperial doctor would do it.

Chen Jingke also touched it early and waited in the Lizheng Hall.

After Sun Simiao's arrival, everyone didn't delay too much, and started the vaccination simply after seeing the ceremony.

The first one was of course the eldest grandson Wugou, she didn't shy away from anything, rolled up her sleeves and exposed her arms.

Sun Simiao picked up the silver knife and tapped it. Without any hesitation or consideration, he just picked up the silver knife and stabbed it.

The wound was neither deep nor shallow, just enough to see blood, so I took a cotton ball and dipped it in the vaccinia liquid and applied it on the wound.

The whole process is done in one go, and the whole process takes less than 1 minute.

Then came Li Lizhi, Li Tai, Li Zhi, Gao Yang, Cheng Yang and others.

The few people in front were normal, but when it was Princess Chengyang's turn, this girl started yelling like a slaughtered piglet.

Everyone thought it was funny, this girl was afraid of nothing but pain.

Then... Princess Jinyang and Princess Xincheng were frightened by her. They looked timid, and Princess Xincheng was even more frightened and burst into tears.

Chen Jingke glared at her angrily, and quickly comforted his daughter-in-law: "I'm not afraid, my little one. It doesn't hurt, just like an ant bite."

"Yeah." Xiao Si nodded slightly, but her tightly closed mouth and flickering eyes told everyone that she was very nervous.

Chen Jingke didn't want her to be afraid, so he said, "It really doesn't hurt. If you don't believe me, I'll vaccinate you first and you'll know."

After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and exposed his shoulders and said, "Master, please vaccinate me first."

As a post-[-]s generation, he had never been vaccinated against smallpox in his previous life. He was no different from the ancients in the face of this disease, so he was vaccinated together this time.

Since Sun Simiao didn't know what to say, he picked up the knife and was ready to strike.

His technique is indeed very good, but it would be a lie to say that it doesn't hurt.It's just that he was quick, and it was over as soon as he felt the pain.

Chen Jingke smiled and said: "Look, I just said it's the same as an ant bite, it doesn't hurt. Don't be fooled by your sister, she is scared by a coward."

Princess Chengyang said unhappily: "You are the coward, and you are the one who was frightened."

Xiao Sizi is more than five years old and already sensible, and she is already precocious and worried, and she understands that Chen Jingke is doing this to make her not afraid, and she is very happy but not afraid anymore.

He nodded heavily and said, "Well, I know, I'm not afraid."

Chen Jingke smiled and said, "Little Si is really brave."

Then he personally rolled up the sleeves for Xiao Sizi, revealing the pure white Sai Xue's arms.He also gently held her hand and gave her encouragement.

Sun Simiao didn't do anything special to vaccinate his apprentice's daughter-in-law. He also picked up a knife and stabbed it quickly.

Xiao Si subconsciously grasped Chen Jingke's hand, and opened his mouth to scream.But when he thought of his brother by his side, he closed his mouth again.

It's just that the little brows were frowned, the eye sockets were a little moist, and the little mouth was slightly pouted with an aggrieved look.

Chen Jingke quickly comforted him: "Okay, ok, the vaccination has been completed. The little si is so brave, my brother likes such a little si the most."

Hearing this, Princess Gao Yang shuddered and said, "Eh... I can't stand it, I'm so disgusting."

"Haha..." Everyone else laughed.

Two red clouds rose on Xiao Sizi's shy face, but the little grievance in his heart disappeared.

The eldest grandson Wugou was very pleased. The more he looked at Chen Jingke, the more he felt satisfied. If he can love his wife so much, the younger son will be blessed in the future.

Apart from the empress and the four noble concubines, as for the other concubines and children, they should all be left behind to wait for the imperial doctor to act.

Orient Palace was not vaccinated either.

Li Shimin said: "Although cowpox is very safe, it is also a type of smallpox, which has certain dangers."

"So we can't vaccinate at the same time, and wait for the results in the harem in half a month before moving to the East Palace."

Li Chengqian naturally knew why, and said: "Yes, my son understands."

……

The emperor and all civil and military officials collectively accepted smallpox prevention and treatment at the meeting on the first day of the lunar new year, and the medical skill was performed by Zixiao Guansun personally.

This news spread throughout Chang'an City at the fastest speed, and was quickly spread to all parts of the world.

The common people no longer doubt the authenticity of this matter, and no one is worried about whether it will be dangerous, and they can't wait to get vaccinated.

Many related people even took the initiative to go to the Yamen to inquire when to start treating the common people, and whether their own family can give priority.

All the answers they got were: it is difficult to make medicines and they have to wait.

This is not a lie, but the demand is too great, and it will take time to cultivate so many cowpox.

Li Shimin chose two places in the mountains of Longshouyuan and Qinling to raise cattle and breed pox, and all the pardoned prisoners went to raise cattle.

After all, vaccination is a matter of great importance. These death row prisoners cannot be trusted. It is the safest way to let them raise cattle.

There is no shortage of cattle in Datang now, and it is still very easy for Tian Khan to want cattle.

In order to keep the secret of vaccinia, a large number of medicinal materials were deliberately purchased, but these medicinal materials were secretly made into medicine for use by the army.

While cultivating vaccinia, the imperial court also transferred personnel for simple training.There is really nothing difficult about vaccinia vaccination, as long as you can do it with your own hands.

The so-called training is nothing more than teaching them simple nursing knowledge, and at the same time vaccinating them first, so as to avoid accidents when vaccinating others.

But even so, it is very troublesome to gather so many medical staff in a short period of time.

Fortunately, when the personnel sent by Taoist temples from various places to study at Zixiao Temple arrived, Li Shimin directly ordered to requisition on the spot, so these Taoist priests were recruited by the state.

The attitudes of the Taoist sects towards this are naturally wishful thinking.

At first, I was worried that such a big move of Taoism would cause misunderstanding by the court, but now I directly join the court team to do it openly, why not do it.

After learning about this, Buddhism was immediately paralyzed.

Falin was silent for a long time before sighing: "I know that Taoism's prosperity is unstoppable, but I didn't expect it to be so fierce... Doctor of Medicine, you are really enviable."

Fang Ming said: "There are also many people who know medical skills in my Buddhist family, why don't we also ask the sage to allow us to join?"

Falin shook her head and said: "This method was created by Master Sun at the risk of contracting smallpox. How can we act like villains and do ghosts and ghosts. And, even if we join, how should we explain it when we face the common people?"

Fang Ming was speechless for a moment.

Yes, how to explain it to the people?To be honest, tell them that this method was created by the Taoist leader Sun Zhenren?Isn't that making Taoism famous?

In case the people ask a lot, Taoism conquered smallpox, what did you do with Buddhism?How do they answer?

"But, don't we do anything?"

Farin nodded and said, "Yes, we can't do anything but watch."

Fang Ming said unwillingly: "Taoism's influence in the court has surpassed ours. If the people lose, we will really be ridden by them."

Falin said: "Amitabha, Taoism has become a major trend, we should avoid its edge and preserve our strength."

"If you refuse to admit defeat and forcibly collide with others when they are strongest, you will only suffer greater losses. This is not what a wise man does."

"Convey my meaning to the suzerains, and they will know how to do it."

Fang Ming said helplessly, "Here."

……

Chen Jingke didn't have the time to care about Buddhist ideas, and he didn't even bother with Taoism, but handed it over to Yang Tianlu and Wu Shu.

He himself was planning another thing.

"Auntie, the world is vast and boundless. If the Great Tang wants to occupy the most land, it needs more people..."

"There are only two ways to increase the population, one is to encourage births; the other is to prolong the life of the living and reduce unnatural deaths."

"But whether it is to increase the newborn population or improve the survival rate, it is inseparable from medical treatment..."

Changsun Wugou nodded and said, "Then, what do you want to say?"

Chen Jingke did not answer directly, but continued: "In the past, everyone knew little about the human body and diseases, and medical skills were not subdivided. No matter what the disease was, they all went to the same doctor."

"After the emergence of new medicine, the situation has changed. Master has subdivided medical skills, and each department is very huge."

"It is very rare for a person to spend his whole life mastering one of the sciences, but he is powerless in other sciences."

"But there is a very troublesome situation. When people get sick, they can only go to a specialized doctor."

"But how do they know so much? Even if they understand, how can they find the corresponding doctor? Running back and forth may not cure the disease, and the person will die first."

Changsun Wugou thought about the situation, the problem was really big, so he said: "You said so much, there must be a solution?"

Chen Jingke said: "I can't hide anything from you. I do have a solution, which is to open a comprehensive large hospital."

The eldest grandson Wugou said: "Tell me what to do in detail."

Chen Jingke talked about the situation of the general hospital. To put it bluntly, it is to open a large hospital with different departments inside. When a patient is sick, he can find the corresponding doctor when he goes to the hospital.

The eldest grandson Wugou couldn't help but nodded and said: "Good idea, this will really make it easier for the common people to see a doctor... But why are you telling me this? You don't want me to open a hospital, do you?"

Chen Jingke nodded hurriedly and said, "Auntie is so smart, I just hope you will come forward to open a hospital."

Changsun Wugou didn't object directly, but said with interest: "Why? Give me a reason."

Chen Jingke had been prepared for a long time and said: "First of all, a general hospital is not just as simple as a hospital. It has all internal organs and involves a myriad of things."

"Ordinary people don't have the ability to handle these things well. It must be done by someone with status."

"Secondly, this kind of general hospital must be opened all over the country. Like the academy system, at least every county must have one."

"Such a huge scale is closely related to the lives of the people. If it is in the hands of others, His Majesty may have trouble sleeping and eating."

Changsun Wugou knew the consequences just by thinking about it, the people who controlled these hospitals would definitely be killed.

"Finally, doctors used to be handed down from father to son or from master to apprentice. It would be good if a doctor can teach three or five apprentices in a lifetime."

"This has also led to a serious shortage of doctors in the world, and the level of doctors is also uneven."

"Now new medical skills are even more troublesome...so if you want to open a hospital, you must first open a medical school to train all kinds of doctors..."

"The cost is too high and the time-consuming is too long, and the benefits may not be seen for decades, so this matter can only be done by the court."

"But the princes in the court are definitely not willing to do this. After thinking about it, you are the only one who is the most suitable."

"You are a queen, you can coordinate all aspects of the relationship, and His Majesty will not be suspicious of you... The key is that you are rich."

The eldest grandson Wugou said with a light smile: "Then how can you be sure that I will agree? My money didn't come from the wind."

Chen Jingke said with a look of admiration: "Because your majesty has the world in mind and aspires to be an emperor through the ages, you and your majesty will definitely help him because of your deep affection."

The eldest grandson Wugou smiled and said: "Flaty."

Chen Jingke didn't argue, but changed the subject: "So, what about you?"

The eldest grandson Wugou asked in bewilderment, "What's wrong with me?"

Chen Jingke said: "Your Majesty wants to be the emperor through the ages, don't you want to be the queen through the ages?"

The eldest grandson Wugou showed a surprised expression.

Chen Jingke said persistently: "Admonish the saint, be a mediator between the saint and the ministers...you are really excellent in these things."

"But many people have done these things in history, and even many queens and queen mothers have done great feats that you have not done."

"Compared with them, you don't have much advantage. You need to work harder if you want to be the queen of the ages."

"But if you personally build a medical system for Datang, who else can compete with you?"

"Now Datang is doing universal vaccination to eliminate smallpox, which is a good opportunity to start. That's why I came to you, and I hope you will come forward to do this."
