Father can be an enemy to the country

Niu Boyi, fifth brother! Lao Liu hurriedly sent his first like today.

Hahaha, we are the same cows. Lao Wu smiled happily and boasted to each other in business: If it weren't for Lao Liu who came up with the method of inoculating cowpox, how could we have achieved today's success!

No, no, no, I just inspired you. It's all thanks to Fifth Brother. Lao Liu said with false humility: When you write medical books in the future, please don't include my name in it. That would be too polite. .”

Then it must be written, and it must be written with rich ink and color! Fifth Brother said matter-of-factly.

The fourth child stared at the two bratty brothers from the side with his mouth open. After the two had finished complimenting each other, he interrupted and asked:

No, what do you mean by defeating smallpox? Can you cure acne?

It's not curable yet. Lao Wu shook his head and said with a smile: But we have a way to prevent people from getting smallpox in their lives. No matter how many times they come into contact with pox patients, they will not be infected!

Isn't that amazing?! Lao Liu shouted excitedly: As long as we promote universal vaccination, from babies to the elderly, no one will be left behind, won't no one get smallpox anymore? Isn't this better than treating it again? Much stronger?!”

That's right. As the saying goes, 'not to treat the disease, but to treat the disease before it's gone', prevention is definitely better than cure! Lao Wu nodded heavily and said: The experiment in Ningguo has been successful. I will ask my father to issue an order to carry out universal vaccination!

Is it the 'cowpox' vaccination? The fourth child asked curiously: How to vaccinate?

Look... Lao Wu wanted to roll up his sleeves to show off his acne marks, but his winter coat was too thick and he couldn't do it. I had no choice but to say: I went home and took off my clothes to show you.

Let's show it to your wife. The forty-year-old boy refused, and the brothers laughed obscenely.

Lao Wu briefly explained to Fourth Brother the principles of cowpox and how to inoculate it.

...In the end, a scar the size of a bean will be left on the shoulder. This is the only mark of cowpox on a person. People who have been vaccinated with cowpox can rely on this mark to avoid smallpox for the rest of their lives!

Are you so awesome? Although the fourth child didn't quite understand, he was deeply shocked and said, Then give me one as well.

That's necessary. Lao Wu agreed: Our royal family will set an example first, and then it will be much easier for the whole people to promote it!

~~

It was already afternoon when the brothers returned to Beijing.

The prince actually led hundreds of officials to welcome Lao Wu at Zhengyang Gate, accompanied by a band and full of ceremonial guards.

Oh, brother, what are you doing? Lao Wu was flattered and even a little at a loss. He was not used to being the center of attention.

Of course you are the 'hero in the war against acne' who is welcoming us. The prince smiled happily and said: The magistrate of Ningguo has reported your deeds of saving hundreds of thousands of people from the plague in the local area. My father, Emperor Longyan, is very happy. I will return tonight. We have to hold a special banquet to celebrate your success.

Ah, I can't do it, I can't do it. Lao Wu couldn't help but become more and more nervous, wishing he could hide in the crowd. He no longer looked as confident as before when he talked about cowpox.

Why can't you do it? Lao Liu on the side cheered him up: Don't look at so many emperors and generals in the history books. You just finished singing and I came on stage. In fact, it can only leave a field of chicken feathers, which only brings disaster to the people. .

Fifth Brother's contributions and achievements can benefit generations of people. In my opinion, none of them can compare to Fifth Brother!

Sixth brother... He is really the fifth brother's lifelong confidant. Lao Wu was moved to tears.

Haha, good brother, never forget to take care of your brothers' feelings. The fourth child also smiled and gave the sixth child a thumbs up. Without Lao Liu's company and guidance in the second half of the year, his life would have been even more difficult.

That's necessary. Lao Liu beat his chest and pointed at Lao Si and Lao Wu.

The fourth child also beat his chest and pointed at the fifth and sixth children.

What Lao Liu said is right. The prince pretended not to see the two living treasures playing tricks, and said sternly to Lao Wu: You can defeat smallpox, which is definitely a contribution to the present and will benefit the future. Your achievements are no less than those of the famous generals in ancient times. !”

Thank you for the compliment, brother. Lao Wu couldn't help but burst into tears. He is always unknown and does not compete or compete, but it does not mean that he does not desire to be recognized by his father and brother like Lao Liu.

Okay, great. Zhu Di also looked very relieved, and said with wet eyes: It turns out that we, the fifth one, are also good, and we are not the same as the seventh one...

Fuck... Lao Qi originally came with his eldest brother, and was hesitating whether to go over and say hello to his fourth brother. Hearing this, he felt depressed and moved as far as he could...

~~

An emperor like Boss Zhu who was born from the common people knows very well the sufferings of the people. The infectious disease that ranks first among the diseases is pox.

Therefore, he attached great importance to the report from Ningguo Mansion, and even sent an imperial envoy to Ningguo County for secret visits to verify the truth, so as to avoid causing any misunderstandings.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Lao Wu, well, he just doesn't believe it... After all, this is smallpox that has been raging for more than 1,300 years, leaving famous doctors of all dynasties helpless!

But the results of the investigation made him very happy - at the beginning of the year, Ningguo County, which was described in the report as purgatory on earth, or ten rooms and nine empty rooms, by the end of the year, there was no more smallpox patient in the county.

In fact, smallpox has been eliminated in Ningguo County since the second half of the year...

If it weren't for the sight of people who had recovered from smallpox with their faces covered with acne scars, and the endless new graves as far as the eye could see, the censors and imperial doctors who came to investigate would have doubted whether smallpox had really been raging in Ningguo County in the first half of the year.

Now Boss Zhu was finally convinced, and he was so happy that he jumped up and down in front of Queen Ma.

Therefore, even though he had read and reread the relevant reports, Boss Zhu immediately summoned Lao Wu as soon as he came back to hear for himself what ‘Hao Wu’er’ had to say.

Speaking of which, this was the first time that Lao Wu was playing solo with his father, so he was inevitably very nervous.

Fortunately, when it comes to his profession, he has never been afraid of anyone. Then he told his father the origin of cowpox and the research process.

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized: We said that there were flowers in the county that year, so it was okay for us to help carry the dead. It turns out that herding cattle has this benefit.

As he spoke, he smiled at Lao Liu who was accompanying him: Now you understand why we asked you to go back to your hometown to herd cattle, right?

Ouch... Lao Liu responded perfunctorily. My heart says yes, yes, even the hens laying eggs are all your fault.

It seems simple once the truth is explained. The prince said seriously: But not everyone can observe the unusual from ordinary life and use it to his own advantage. At least except for Lao Liu, I have never seen Pass.

That's right, inoculating cowpox into people is really not something that ordinary people can think of. Boss Zhu's compliments are always sarcastic.

Yes, Father, Lao Liu has inspired me with more than just cowpox... Lao Wu also said with admiration: I really don't know how he can have so many wonderful ideas in his mind.

What about Fifth Brother? Don't turn to me. Lao Liu quickly waved his hands and said, You continue, don't go off topic.
