Chapter 168

Mrs. Guo went out of the palace with great grievances, and when she went back and told the matter to the master, she shed tears.

"Rong's daughter is bullying too much!" Guo Ruike felt that he was losing face. After all, it was his wife who handed the sign into the palace, which represented his face. Concubine Rong dared to insult her, obviously not afraid of his revenge: "You too, I let you You go to Gu Zhaoyi to intercede. How did you find the imperial concubine?"

Annoyed, he didn't look at the madam who was covering her face and weeping: "You know how to cry, and you can't even do this little thing well."

Mrs. Guo explained: "After I greeted the empress, the maid who led the way took me directly to Zhaoyang Palace. Gu Zhaoyi was also there, but she was very quiet, as if she also listened to the concubine's words."

On that day, Jiang Xian did not say anything to taunt her.

Compared with the overbearing Concubine Rong and Ma Wanyi, Mrs. Guo has a better impression of her, and also feels that if it is not in Zhaoyang Palace, there may be room for things to turn around, because the concubine is too unkind.

After hearing what she said, Guo Ruike shook his head: "She didn't feel anxious when she was sitting here. Judging by the mood you described, I'm afraid she didn't intend to see you at all."

There are a lot of people like this in the officialdom. They don't fight for a moment, and laugh at those who don't like it. It's hard to pry his mouth away: "It's just you, a woman, who thinks she is good."

Mrs. Guo is only here.

Guo Ruike thought about it for a second: "However, your trip is not in vain. I said something that didn't suit the emperor's wishes in the court. If you were scolded by them, the emperor's anger will somewhat dissipate. This is the credit, really. It will fall on Gu Zhaoyi."

As for the forces in the harem, Gu Zhaoyi is obviously from the noble concubine's faction.

She is also said to have a good relationship with the Queen.

It's just that his own daughter is ignorant, and it's unnecessary for Guo Ruike to blush with her, but there is no possibility of reconciliation, so he can only find ways to suppress her, so that her promotion speed will be slower, and she will be stuck below the concubine position.

The next day, Guo Ruike asked to see the emperor.

The emperor also saw him, and asked him to talk about his wife's experience in the palace with a bitter face, and then bowed pitifully: "It's because I offended the imperial concubine, and it's not wrong to beat me." I just hope the Holy Majesty sees that Madam Weichen has already suffered it once, and that the whole Guo family has changed their past, and for the sake of repenting, he will give a slack and give the magic medicine."

In the eyes of Yanchi people, there is no so-called science, and there is no concept of vaccines for the time being.

So it can "prevent" smallpox vaccinia, and there is a saying that it is a magic medicine.

"Do you know what this is?"

When Guo Ruike came in, Xie Che raised his teacup and took a sip of hot tea.After he finished speaking, he put down his teacup, took out a booklet that was sorted by category, and threw it in front of Guo Ruike.

"Weichen...don't know."

"Then pick it up and read it, and then return to me after reading it."

Trembling, Guo Ruike bent down to pick up the booklet, which contained a piece of parchment written in foreign languages.There are only a handful of people in Yanchi who can understand foreign languages, and he doesn't understand either. Fortunately, there are translations in the booklet.Yanchi was weak and lagging behind in naval battles. Except for some small foreign countries that were friendly to Yanchi, the rest had not yet opened up trade routes with Westerners, and could not find an opportunity.

Among them, Margom, the hometown of the missionary Chen Blessing, who came to preach, suffered greatly from the raging smallpox.

Hearing that Yan Chi had a miraculous method to prevent smallpox, Chen Fufu was so excited that he wanted to go back and report the matter to His Majesty and the Pope as soon as possible, and promised that he would come with great sincerity, and all cooperation could be opened accordingly.

Xie Che had no doubts that the missionary would go back to report the news. After all, there is a method to prevent smallpox, and it must be vigorously implemented throughout the country, and foreigners don't need to bother to inquire.What's more, this is not to use one less pill. After the missionary Chen Fufu learned about the concept of "vaccine", he called it amazing, and it must be able to dispel the other party's more unruly thoughts.

Besides, if he wants to fight, Yan Chi is really not afraid.

On the one hand, it wastes people's money, and on the other hand, it makes everyone rich. Xie Che believes that the ruler of Margom will make a wise choice.

"Gu Zhaoyi's move is not only to save the people of Yanchi from suffering from smallpox, but also to promote Yanchi's national prestige. I have named this prevention method Yanchi vaccinia, and will use Yanchi's unique long turtle Spread the word that grass-fed cattle are more suitable for vaccinia... This is all Gu Zhaoyi's idea. As a second-rank official in the imperial court, you don't want to think of ways to benefit the country and the people, so just focus on that. Credit, it's ridiculous!"

There are two things Jiang Xian thinks about, one is "getting hot".

Groups can be stigmatized, which in turn can be stigmatized.

Westerners have been afraid of smallpox for a long time, and now they have come up with a way to prevent it. With Yan Chi's name, who can not have a good impression of Yan Chi?How strong must a country be that can defeat a terrible infectious disease?

The second is to take the opportunity to make money.

Long turtle grass is not helpful for vaccinia. The good thing is that it is only found in the land of Yanchi, and it is highly recognizable. The leaves have patterns that resemble the back of a turtle, so it is not easy to be mistaken for real.

Both were proposed by Jiang Xian to the emperor.

……

Xie Che spoke slowly at first, but later he got angry and scolded.

One reproach from the emperor is better than a hundred sentences from the imperial concubine.

"The emperor is angry!" Guo Ruike was frightened, and his head fell to the ground: "This humble minister is also thinking about the emperor's prestige! Think about the method of preventing smallpox, from the hands of the emperor, it should be more instructive than from a woman's mouth convince."

Can Guo Ruike say he wants to suppress Gu Zhaoyi?
He had to bite to death for the emperor's good, but to kill him was foolish loyalty.

"My prestige does not need to be built by taking other people's credit. I have already found out that in the name of loyalty to the emperor, you have actually received a lot of gifts behind your back. You have united to suppress my Gu Zhaoyi because she is not a noble daughter. , his father's official position is low."

"Your Majesty, I was confused for a moment!"

Guo Ruike's forehead was bruised from knocking, and he begged the emperor to raise his hand once more.

Xie Che really couldn't beat him to death, he gave him a stern warning, punished him to shut himself up and think about his mistakes, and pay him a year's salary... Although he didn't mention the gift he received, it was taken for granted that he would have to return it.

After leaving the imperial study room, the panicked Guo Ruike staggered on the road and nearly fell, but was helped up by a pale and strong hand: "Master Guo, be careful when walking."

After standing firmly, Guo Ruike saw the person coming, and hurriedly saluted: "I have seen Prince Xie."

Prince Xie: "I don't really want to see you."

Guo Ruike was puzzled.

Xie Wang Ye: "The emperor just met you, and he must be very upset and difficult to deal with."

Guo Ruike: ...

A lifetime of being disliked by the Xie family.

He was still embarrassed at the same place, Lord Xie had already gone in to face the saint, before he saluted and greeted him, he glanced at the screen next to him from the corner of his eye, there was no one inside, but there was a very faint fragrance.

In a trance, what I smelled was a kind of incense that the late emperor loved to use.

 I'm afraid everyone will forget that the incense used in the rolls can make people smell the smell they want to smell the most
