Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

"Your Majesty, it has been four days now and there is still no news from Ningguo Mansion. Do you want to send someone to investigate?"

Yu Xin reported to Zhu Di with a worried look on his face.

"Your Majesty, what Mr. Yu said is absolutely true. Ningguo Mansion is so close to the capital. If it works, there should be news.

But now, it has been four days, but there is no news. "

"Your Majesty, whether the good doctor Han can cure the pox or not, the court should be prepared.

If the doctor Han Liang fails to treat the disease and the entire Ningguo Mansion does not take care of it, I am afraid that before all the people in Ningguo Mansion are infected with smallpox, those people will have starved to death! "

"His Majesty……"

Zhu Di thought for a moment and then shouted in a deep voice: "Yi Shiha, go and order the Jin Yiwei to send a fast horse to Ningguo Mansion to see what's going on?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Yi Shiha responded quickly and stepped back quickly.

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

Your Highness, Yu Xin, Yang Jing and other important ministers all breathed a sigh of relief.

After so many days, they had huge doubts about Dr. Han Liang's ability to treat smallpox.

However, when Yu Xin, Yang Jing and other important ministers left the palace and were about to go back to their respective offices, they saw Yi Shiha, who had just left, walking into the palace with a dusty old man.

Yi Shiha's face was full of joy.

Yu Xin's heart moved, and he asked curiously: "Yi Daban, who is this?"

Yi Shiha replied: "This is Dr. Han Liang who went to Ningguo Mansion!"

"what?"

Yu Xin, Yang Jing and others were immediately shocked and hurriedly asked Han Shi.

"Doctor Han Liang is not in Ningguo Mansion, why did he come back to the capital?"

Han Shi replied honestly: "Reporting to you superiors, the errands assigned by Your Majesty have been completed, and I am here to return my orders!"

"Done?"

Yu Xin was stunned, "What does Dr. Han Liang mean?"

Yi Shiha said hurriedly: "Mr. Yu, Mr. Yang, and Dr. Han Liang have cured all the pox patients in Ningguo Mansion!"

"what?"

"It's only been four days...how is that possible?"

Han Shi just raised his hand and ignored it.

Yi Shiha said quickly: "Don't worry, Mr. Yu, the Jinyi Guards and Shunde Guards who followed Dr. Han Liang have already confirmed this matter!"

"Confirmed?"

Yu Xin, Yang Jing and others suddenly widened their eyes, still in disbelief.

However, there was no further obstruction.

Yi Shiha quickly took Han Shi to the palace.

His Majesty is even more worried about the situation in Ningguo Mansion.

He must hurry up and report such a happy event to His Majesty!
After entering the main hall, Yi Shiha reported directly.

"Your Majesty, Dr. Han Liang is back!"

"Doctor Han Liang is back?"

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Han Shi standing aside, and his face suddenly became happy.

"Han Xi meets your Majesty!"

Zhu Di asked directly: "Han Qing is a member of the family, please tell me how the situation in Ningguo Mansion is?"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Han Shi reported directly: "Back to Your Majesty, after Wei Chen arrived at Ningguo Mansion, he directly asked the prefect to send someone to take Wei Chen to rescue people..."

"well!"

When Han Shi finished speaking, Zhu Di was overjoyed.

Yu Xin, Yang Jing and others who followed Yi Shiha and others were dumbfounded.

The smallpox epidemic that made them blush was so easily cured?

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, God bless me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, Dr. Han Liang's merits are immeasurable. I sincerely ask your Majesty to reward Dr. Han Liang generously!"

"What the Qing family said is absolutely true!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, "The Han Qing family has made such great contributions, I want to confer a title on them to show their effectiveness and encourage the doctors of our Ming Dynasty to develop more magical medicines so that the great epidemic will no longer ravage our Ming Dynasty!"

Yu Xin: "..."

Yang Jing: "..."

Another title?
Shouldn't they say more?
Zhu Di continued: "Not much, this matter still needs to wait for the memorial from Ningguo Mansion. You all can go down and discuss this matter!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

Yu Xin, Yang Jing and others responded and quickly retreated.

In the hall, Zhu Di asked Han Shi some questions again with a happy face, and then let Han Shi go back to rest.

Han Shi quickly thanked him.

On the way back, Han Shi felt dazed.

Your Majesty really wants to knight him!
They doctors finally have a chance to shine!
Your Majesty’s grace is so great!
Shunde County Prince's Mansion.

With the return of the three hundred-household Shunde guards, the entire Shunde County Prince's Mansion suddenly burst into joy.

Everyone was relieved.

The smallpox epidemic in Ningguo Mansion has been resolved, and the prince's marriage can proceed as scheduled.

The most important thing is that from now on, everyone in the Shunde County Prince's Palace will no longer worry about contracting smallpox and losing their lives.

"Three hundred guards, all of them will be rewarded with two taels of silver!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

……

at dusk.

The memorial from Ning Guofu finally arrived in the capital.

Along the way, they entered the palace directly. The cabinet did not stay for a quarter of an hour before being delivered to Zhu Di.

The situation written in its content is roughly the same as what Han Shi described.

Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi were immediately overjoyed.

This situation was sent to all the yamen in the court.

the next day.

The news that the smallpox epidemic in Ningguo Mansion had been completely cured quickly spread throughout the capital.

At the same time, it was spread outside the Ming Dynasty.

In the newspaper, a group of editors also looked at the copy of the memorial and began to compile articles and publish them in the newspaper!
The dark clouds that shrouded everyone in the Ming Dynasty suddenly disappeared.

Everyone was full of joy.

He even praised Han Shi.

A few days later.

Han Shi's title was also determined.

Viscount Anyang!

At the same time, Han Shi's disciples were also rewarded with a lot of money.

This knighthood caused another shock in the Ming Dynasty.

but.

Not many people objected to this.

This viscount poses no threat to them and can save all their lives!

Simultaneously.

After learning that the medicine to prevent and treat smallpox was actually related to cattle farming.

Moreover, the entire Shunde County Prince's Palace had already planted that kind of medicine earlier.

Many powerful officials and gentry asked Viscount Anyang to vaccinate them with cowpox.

In this regard.

After discussing with a group of officials at the court meeting, Zhu Di decided to start vaccination with cowpox in the capital.

Then, slowly promote it nationwide.

Han Shi, Viscount of Anyang, was the principal and responsible for this matter.

The whole Ming Dynasty became noisy again.

Simultaneously.

Everyone in the Shunde County Prince's Mansion also started to get busy.

There are only a few days left for the marriage between the crown prince Guo Shen and Princess Xianning.

Everything must be prepared. finally.

It's the wedding day.

The person who presided over the wedding was Zhou Wang Zhu Ju.

Guo's father and Guo An took Guo Shen to the ancestral hall of the county prince's mansion to offer sacrifices.

Afterwards, a large group of people went to the palace to marry Princess Xianning.

As the prince of the county, Guo Shen was different from those ministers and naturally different from ordinary princes-in-law. He did not accept the etiquette of imperial orders.

But despite this, there are still many kinds of rituals and visits.

Working from morning to afternoon, Guo Shencai welcomed Princess Xianning back to Shunde County Prince's Mansion.

Seeing this, Father Guo, Liu Weiyuan and other old men all laughed from ear to ear.

……

Imperial Palace, Wenlou.

Zhu Di held a golden sweet potato in his hand, ate it over and over again, and said to Guo An beside him.

"The wedding is over, it's time for Guo Qing to go and preside over the compilation ceremony!"

Guo An responded quickly: "Wei Chen will go and have a look soon!"

"have a look?"

Zhu Di frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied.

Guo An explained slowly: "Your Majesty clearly knows that Fang Xiaoru and Xie Jin are presiding over the ceremony.

In this aspect, they are the most professional.

As for Wei Chen, the most he can do is see where there is something inappropriate or where Wei Chen can help..."

Zhu Di smiled and said, "Finally there is something unprofessional about Guo Qing!"

Guo An didn't care at all and said slowly: "Your Majesty clearly knows that Wei Chen is only professional in craftsmanship.

Even when doing business, I only dare to give general opinions and don’t dare to get too involved! "

Zhu Di nodded slightly and said again: "Speaking of this, it seems that the two cement straight roads are also completed!"

Guo An nodded quickly, "Your Majesty, the two cement straight roads were finally completed before the year!"

Zhu Di said: "Very good, we have some expectations. After the construction of these two straight roads is completed, how much better will the lives of the people on both sides of these two straight roads be?"

Guo An also looked forward to it and said, "Wei Chen is also looking forward to it!"

Zhu Di asked again: "Guo Qing, how long will the train take?"

After thinking for a moment, Guo An said, "Your Majesty, after the two straight roads are completed, His Royal Highness can dispatch the craftsmen and soldiers from the Road Construction Department to lay the trains and railways.

In this way, the railway can be completed in a year at most! "

"One year!"

Zhu Di murmured to himself, then nodded slightly.

"That's good!"

"Guo Qing, where is the train?"

"Your Majesty, as long as there is sufficient supply of steel, all trains can be cast in less than half a year!"

"That's it. Now that there is no war in the Ming Dynasty, more steel from various places can be allocated to train workshops!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Now that your Guo Shen has not only grown up, he has also become our son-in-law. It's time to arrange an official position for him and let him display his talents!"

"This one……"

Guo An was stunned for a moment, then said helplessly: "I will obey your Majesty's arrangements!"

"How about letting him go to the East Palace first?"

"Your Majesty is wise! That boy Guo Shen is a bit pedantic. Let him go to the East Palace. The things he handles are not very important. Your Highness the Crown Prince can also teach him. I would like to thank your Majesty for the arrangement!"

"As long as you are satisfied!"

"Where's that boy Guo Lu?"

"Your Majesty, that bastard will stay in the military academy for another year!"

"There's still one year left..."

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen plans to wait until Guo Shen has a child before sending him to Guozhou.

After all, Guozhou will be handed over to him sooner or later, so that he can take a closer look! "

"Let Guo Shen go? You won't go?"

"This... Your Majesty is aware that Wei Chen will also go. Wei Chen will take Guo Shen with him!"

"Well! It will take two or three years..."

"Yes, I hope that boy Guo Shen can give Weichen some words. Don't wait until the railway has been built. He has not yet given birth to an heir for Weichen's Shunde County Prince's Mansion!"

"Humph……"

Zhu Di suddenly glared at Guo An.

Guo An looked confused, "Your Majesty, what happened?"

Zhu Di asked again: "Guo Qing said before that there is a continent to the east of Japan, which is very rich, but is it true?"

Guo An said: "Your Majesty, what I said is true. However, there are no fleets traveling to the east of the Japanese country, and the waterway is unfamiliar and very dangerous."

"Ok!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, "What if we go from the West?"

"Western?"

Guo An was stunned.

Zhu Di added: "Didn't Guo Qing say before that the world we are in is a sphere? If we start from the Ming Dynasty and go west, we will eventually return to the Ming Dynasty from the direction of the Japanese country?"

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

Guo An quickly flattered me, "I didn't expect that your Majesty would still remember a sentence he said many years ago.

However, the fleet has to travel a long distance from the Western Ocean! "

"It doesn't matter!"

Zhu Di waved his hand casually, "It's not for us to go to such a far away place anyway.

We just think that in a few years, when the princes of the royal families have grown up, the South and West will not be enough for them to toss around, and there happens to be the East for them to toss around. "

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

Guo An quickly flattered him again.

Hearing this, Zhu Di couldn't help but scolded, "You and I are waiting for our children to marry, and you are still so polite?"

After saying that, he threw the sweet potato peels into the spittoon aside and cleaned his hands under the service of two waiters.

Guo An said cautiously: "Your Majesty is aware that the higher the status of a minister, the more he should set an example and safeguard your Majesty's dignity!"

"It's up to you..."

Zhu Di waved his hands helplessly, then stood up and lay on a recliner, holding fragrant tea in his hand, and recalled old scenes with Guo An.

"Everything in the world is unpredictable. We, the King of Yan, were originally going to defend that desolate place in Beiping.

Unexpectedly, I saw Guo Qing when he was beheading his head at the vegetable market! "

“In just a few years, our Beiping Mansion began to undergo earth-shaking changes!
When you become rich, you can catch up with the capital.

Our father was shocked..."

"And that little king of Goryeo still dares to provoke us? And that Japanese king... that time, going to sea to conquer, was very enjoyable for us.

It's a pity that since we became emperor, we can't go out or lead troops to fight! "

"...Our father probably never imagined that in just a few years, our Ming Dynasty would be like this?
The people live and work in peace and contentment, the country is prosperous and the people are strong, and there are no border dangers. Timur's country continues to send people to pay tribute to our Ming Dynasty.

And the kings of the Ming Dynasty can also lead their troops to the sea to fight and secure enough vassal territory for them...

The wealth of the entire Southeast Asia and the West has all entered my Ming Dynasty! "

"..."

"The humble ministers are what they are today, and the great Ming Dynasty is what it is today, all thanks to your majesty's ability to recognize people and employ people in an eclectic way!"

"Fortunately, Guo Qing didn't let us down either!"

"Wei Chen will never let down Your Majesty in this life!"

"Hahaha……"

After leaving the palace gate, Guo An headed towards the Hanlin Academy.

There were more than 3,000 people who compiled the canon. Among them, all members of the Hanlin Academy entered.

Therefore, the place of compilation was in the Hanlin Academy.

Guo An went in and took a look around, then came out directly.

He is truly an amateur in compiling canons.

Back home, Guo An sat with Guo's father, Liu Weiyuan and others and chatted.

After the New Year, Father Guo, Liu Weiyuan and others returned to Xingtai!
