Farmer’s Little Girl

   Chapter 2115

  Mr. Zhuang is now the attendant of the sixth rank. The prince didn't transfer him to a post, so he just squeezed people into the Hongyou Temple to work part-time.

The Secretary of Hongyou Temple knew more inside information, and didn't mind if there was such a person in the department. He told his subordinates this way, "If there is no accident, your Majesty will go to the Western Regions to find smallpox vaccination in this February. At that time, there will be one person from Honghe Temple. Zhuang Xun will not come. Maybe who of you would like to go with the Doctor Zhou from the Taiyuan Hospital?"

  The people who thought that Zhuang Xun had occupied the position immediately had nothing to say.

  Western Regions, is that so easy to go to?

  Especially, they are still a group of literati. Forget it, forget it, it’s pretty good to do some translation in Hongyou Temple.

  So Mr. Zhuang’s appointment book ended.

  Bao happily, happily and Bai Shan said: "In this way, we can go out and study with peace of mind without having to resign."

  Bai Shan was also very happy. After all, they had already done a good job before giving up Zhuangzi’s investment in the past two years. Who knew they could turn around?

  He asked: "How is the situation of the twelve patients?"

"Six of them have completely eliminated the acne," Man Bao said, and said, "No. 5 didn't get through last night, but No. 7 is much better today. I used three sets of needles for him yesterday. Most of the fever has been gone, as long as it is not repeated, it should be fine."

   "The situation of others is also improving."

  Bai Shandao: "Then we can write a letter and talk about our trip to the Western Regions."

  Man Bao nodded, "Wait for everyone's pulse case to come out, so that the book will be more confident."

  In two days, the remaining five patients were also out of danger one after another, and the acne on their bodies slowly disappeared. Some people left acne marks on their bodies because they could not resist scratching, but compared with their lives, few people cared about this.

   Besides, they are all repeat offenders.

  Man Bao sorted out their pulse records and presented them to the emperor together with the emperor Lu Zheng of Xiao Yuan.

  The emperor didn’t have many expressions on his face, but he was actually a little excited, “With the current probability, even if you can’t find the vaccinia method, human pox can be used.”

Man Bao and Xiao Yuan looked at each other, bowed their heads and replied: "Yes, if we encounter smallpox raging, it is much better for us to take the initiative to inoculate than to infect it unintentionally, but the shortcomings of human pox are also visible. , The reaction is still a bit big, and many people can't help but scratch, leaving pockmarks on their faces."

  Mazi is equivalent to disability, and this is still a serious disease at the moment.

  The emperor nodded in contemplation, and returned the pulse case to Xiao Yuanzheng, so that he and Grand Doctor Lu left behind Zhou Man.

  He said: "The queen has something to ask you. You can stay with the queen for lunch."

  Man Bao slightly stunned and lowered his head to respond.

  In fact, the emperor had something to ask her, and their movements were not small. Recently, Bai Erlang was bidding farewell to people in Chongwen Hall, even receiving gifts.

The emperor asked her, "Bai Shan and Bai Cheng also go to the Western Regions with you?"

  Man Bao bowed his head and replied with some guilty conscience, "They also want to see what the Western Regions are like."

  The emperor snorted softly: "Do you want to see what the Western Regions are like, or is it because this is a planned study tour in the morning?"

  Man Bao didn't expect the emperor to know, so he lowered his head and dared not explain.

  The emperor walked slowly with his hands on his back, and said after a while, “Young people, I know, I should walk more. It’s better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles.

  Man Bao nodded again and again, "Yeah, yeah, my husband always said that the third brother has no answer in his heart, so he should go out and practice more."

  The emperor glanced at her and asked, "So is there really a cowpox method in the Western Regions?"

  Man Bao immediately said solemnly: "I heard this from a merchant in the Western Regions. Your Majesty, how dare you lie about such a thing?"

  The emperor also felt that she would not lie about such a thing, and asking such a question was just to be sure.

  He sighed: "In that case, go back and prepare."

  Man Bao was overjoyed, and immediately bowed and saluted, "Yes, your majesty, the minister must fulfill his mission."

   After giving the ceremony, he asked: "Then I still go to lunch with the empress?"

  Emperor: "...Mingda and Changyu are still waiting for you. Go ahead."

  Man Bao immediately saluted and retired, and ran to the Queen's Palace first.

The emperor shook his head, and Gu Zhong smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Master Zhou looks like a child."

  The emperor said: "It was not very old at first, so I have been hesitant to let them go to the Western Regions. The three young people are still too young."

   "Isn't there still Zhuang Shi talked about it?"

   "It's too old again."

  The emperor remembered something, and suddenly smiled: “It’s not in a hurry, wait a minute, and then it’s time to call them two more people.”

  Gu Zhong was puzzled, and the emperor didn't explain, so he walked away with his hands behind his back.

When Man Bao went to the Queen’s Palace, Mingda and Chang Yu were sitting cross-legged on the couch embroidering. Seeing her coming, Chang Yu threw the embroidered shed in his hand immediately, jumped down, and had no time to put on his shoes. He ran towards her, "Are you here to give your mother a peace of mind?"

  The queen glanced at the half-embroidered flower by Changyu, and shook her head, no longer holding her.

  Man Baochong Changyu smiled and saluted the queen first.

  The queen smiled and asked, "Your Majesty asked you to come?"

  Man Bao replied, "Your Majesty asked to come and see the Niang Niang, and said Niang Niang has something to tell me."

  The queen knew that the emperor had agreed to let them go to the Western Regions. She smiled slightly and turned to look at the grand palace lady on the side.

  The lady of the palace turned around and went to the inner room, and after a while she took out a box.

  The queen opened the box. Inside was a short dagger, and the scabbard was black leather. She took it out and pulled the dagger halfway out. The light hit the surface of the knife to reflect some dazzling light.

She turned the knife around and smiled: "This is Princess Pingyang's knife. You are going to the Western Regions. The journey is long and dangerous. I have nothing else to give you. So I will give you this knife that Princess Pingyang used. , I hope to keep you safe."

  Man Bao was surprised, and he didn't dare to pick it up for a while, "Give it to me? Wouldn't it be bad?"

The queen inserted the knife into the scabbard and placed it in her hand with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with it, your majesty also knows this. Smallpox is not stingy with scourges. If you can find a way to prevent it, you will not be credited with it. You deserve the knife."

  Man Bao took the short knife and nodded earnestly after a while, "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely work hard."

  Try to discuss the cowpox method with Teacher Mo, and then implement it.

  The queen nodded in satisfaction, nodded and smiled slightly: "Let’s have lunch here at noon today."

  She glanced at Mingda who was sitting on the side, got up and smiled: “There are still some palaces to deal with in this palace. You speak first.”

  　See you at nine in the evening
