General Huo held the chess pieces in his hand with a calm expression. As he placed the chess pieces, he said: "Your Majesty, in fact, the humble minister knows that great achievements overshadow the master's, and supporting troops with self-respect is a taboo."

"Your Majesty cannot change the art of balance just because of a certain minister, and you must maintain the balance of the court. All the ministers understand it and have no complaints."

Of course General Huo followed Emperor Yan Ping's words. He might have complained in his heart before, but now he sees that his son has grown up.

He gradually began to understand Emperor Yan Ping's difficulties.

If the Huo family is disloyal, it will be a disaster for Dayan.

Emperor Yan Ping was afraid of such a disaster, so he took precautions before it happened. Generally speaking, any emperor would do that.

It's just that His Majesty took those messy pills and listened to those slanderous words with bad intentions, and lost his sense of proportion, which made people sad.

But fortunately, the wise emperor found his way back.

Even though he knew his life was coming to an end, his words were kind.

Emperor Yan Ping smiled. As a high-ranking emperor and a very smart man, he controlled the overall situation.

"Zhengping, I will continue to suppress the Huo family. Even if I know the loyalty of the Huo family, I will still do it, and I will do it even more ruthlessly than before."

"Don't hate me, wait until I die. When the new emperor comes to power, he will be kind to the Huo family, so he will not be suspicious of the Huo family."

When General Huo heard this, he stood up quickly and said, "Your Majesty, take care of yourself!"

Emperor Yan Ping waved, "Sit down, you won't die for a while. You can still sort out some things, don't worry."

"Yingjie is worthy of being my great hero. This operation in Qi Country was very smooth and successful. However, Yingjie stole a lot of treasures from the major tribes in Qi Country."

"There will definitely be serious accusations from the Qi State, and the courtiers in the court will definitely criticize Yingjie's actions. They will accuse him of being murderous and ruthless."

When General Huo heard this, he snorted coldly, "Those people will chirp. If Divine Doctor Liu hadn't discovered smallpox in time, tens of thousands of people would have died in a prosperous place like the capital alone."

"Maybe there are family members of those elders, and maybe it will spread across the country. There will be countless casualties, insufficient troops, and the inability of the people to farm, and the impact will be great. You can refer to the 13th year of Taizu Dayan."

"My son kills people with swords and arrows, which is called murder. Those despicable and shameless people from the Qi Kingdom kill people with smallpox. Isn't it called murder?"

"Don't retaliate against them. If they use this method smoothly, they will use it frequently in the future. What will happen to the people of Dayan Dynasty then?"

Emperor Yan Ping was convinced, "Yes, but those people have a compassionate heart because they have never experienced it. Once they experience such helplessness, they will hate it more than anyone else."

"This time Yingjie wins, I want to reward him heavily. However, I must also find a reason to punish him. In fact, this is not my original intention, but I want to suppress Yingjie and prevent him from being attacked repeatedly by the courtiers."

General Huo was stunned. He didn't expect Emperor Yan Ping to tell him such a thing directly.

"Your Majesty, that's what you said. Thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness. I will also write to Yingjie to let him reflect on it."

Emperor Yan Ping smiled, "Yes, let him reflect on it, but never change."

General Huo also smiled, "Okay, thank you for your trust, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yan Ping replied: "You and your son have worked for me for so many years on the border, protecting the people on the border and maintaining the stability of the court. I don't trust you, who should I trust?"

"Oh, I won."

General Huo smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you just deliberately distracted me with your emotions and reason, otherwise I would not have lost so easily."

Emperor Yan Ping laughed loudly, "Don't make excuses. If you lose, you lose. Come on, let's play another game."

They played chess and talked about the past.

At this time, they are not kings and ministers, but a pair of good friends who have fought together since youth.

Lunch was also eaten in the palace with Emperor Yan Ping.After lunch, we took a walk in the Imperial Garden.

When Emperor Yan Ping felt a little sleepy, General Huo left.

After leaving the palace and sitting in the carriage again, General Huo was alone and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He can have a good death!
His son Huo Yingjie is also temporarily safe.

Fortunately, Li Heifeng came to the capital once and persuaded the awkward and fearful Emperor Yan Ping.

As long as this emperor is not afraid of aging and death, he will not do anything too stupid.

When the throne changes, there won't be too many mistakes.

He can also stay in the capital with peace of mind, and Yingjie can also stay at the border with peace of mind.

As for the youngest son at home, he will also teach him martial arts in the future and supervise his children to study.

At this time, Li Changan and his master, Doctor Liu, had completed the second phase of the experiment.

"Master, we have also succeeded in the second stage." Li Changan was excited and looked at the various data recorded in his hand.

Doctor Liu looked at Li Changan's records and felt that such account books and figures were very practical and clear at a glance.

"Yes. After reporting to His Majesty tomorrow, we will start the third test."

"For the third time, we will expand the scale. The test subjects will not only include death row inmates, but also men, women, old and young, and people of all ages."

"This cannot be forced. It needs to be considered in the long term. Chang'an, when the method of preventing smallpox is successful, you and I, the master and the apprentice, will definitely be famous in history."

Li Changan was also quite excited in his heart. As the saying goes, the passing geese leave a voice, and the passing people leave their names.

He is really lucky to have such an opportunity at such a young age.

"Master, in fact, this is the result of your hard research. I have benefited from the master's credit."

Doctor Liu shook his head, "That's not the case. It was you and your mother who brought it up that you had cowpox. That's when I started to pay attention to the possibility and started to demonstrate."

"If it weren't for you, I might still be studying human pox and not think of cowpox. Chang'an, you are my apprentice. You are better than your master. It proves that I, as a master, am capable and can have such a good apprentice."

"So there is no need to refuse or decline. Our masters and disciples are worthy of this heavy credit."

Li Changan smiled and said, "Thank you, master."

When Yan Pingdi Street Li Changan presented the second phase report.

When I saw the numbers inside, it was quite strange.When Li Changan explained to him that these numbers could become any number after being combined together.

In addition, this recording method is clear at a glance, which is much cleaner than the usual full text records used by the household department.

"Chang'an, you and your master have done a good job." Emperor Yan Ping smiled, "I will send someone to prepare for you in the third stage."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Changan thanked him, "This time the quantity is larger, and it is more useful for reference."

"That's great!" Emperor Yan Ping laughed, "Don't worry and do it, I'll wait and see."

Give rewards to Li Changan and Doctor Liu, and encourage Li Changan again.

Li Changan left the palace with confidence.

He kept his grandfather's instructions in mind and acted as a pure person in front of His Majesty. (End of chapter)
