Chapter 30 Epidemic

Dai Yi went to inoculate Zhu Xiurong, but he stayed in the west hall of Kunning Palace and did not come out.

That night, Zhu Youtang went to see his wife.

After Empress Zhang saw her husband, she cried and said, "Your Majesty, why do you listen to the people in the market and give your child some medicine of unknown origin? The child is still so young, and ordinary medicine cannot withstand it." ”

Zhu Youtang said, “I didn’t believe it at first, but after thinking about it carefully, Jiangnan Township Examination Jie Yuan and Cheng Guo Gong’s children recommended it together. Even if it is not harm, it is just fishing in troubled waters. What good will it do to them?” Originally, I was looking for ministers to discuss countermeasures, but now that someone dares to make suggestions and offer medicine, is it necessary for me to reject them thousands of miles away?"

When Queen Zhang thought about it, she was right.

The ministers don’t have any ideas. Now it’s not easy for someone to have an idea. If you ignore it, who will give advice on such a life-and-death matter in the future?

"Don’t worry, Queen, my daughter will be a lucky person." With the help of heaven, I believe she will not catch the disease."

After the vaccination, everything was calm in the palace.

After a few days, everyone in the court seemed to have forgotten about this incident. However, the smallpox epidemic was still spreading in the capital. Because smallpox had reached the palace, Zhu Youtang would occasionally ask.

In the past few days, maids and eunuchs have been sent out of the palace every day, and the spread of smallpox in the palace has never stopped. The palace is still full of soldiers, and even some people with common illnesses will be infected. He was temporarily sent out of the palace to find a place for resettlement.

On the morning of September 12th, the court meeting was still going on.

It was just an ordinary court meeting that day, and only civil servants participated.

Zhu Youtang was listening to the report on the grain storage in the Beijing warehouse. This was a summary report before and after the autumn grain was put into the warehouse. However, a servant came in a hurry and just said something in the emperor's ear. After saying this, Zhu Youtang stood up and walked out.

"Your Majesty"

Liu Jian reminded the emperor.

The court meeting is still going on. If there is something urgent, let us continue to wait for you, or we should disband and wait for tomorrow.

Zhu Youtang said with a sad face, "Dear gentlemen, My little princess has acne, and I want to go visit her."

"Your Majesty, take care of the dragon body."

The ministers were equally sad, but they wanted to persuade Zhu Youtang. Restrain yourself from meeting the little princess suffering from smallpox.

Zhu Youtang said sadly, "I know, please go back first. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow. Let's give up today's sutra feast."

"Yes."

Liu Jian was very considerate of the emperor.

The emperor's daughter has contracted smallpox. Can we still force the emperor to be diligent and self-denial at this time?

When the ministers came out of the palace, Xie Qian said coldly, "What are you talking about?" If you believe the words of the folk alchemists, you will have endless troubles."

Li Dongyang said, "I can't say that. There is one thing that the alchemist said."

"Oh"

Xie Qian was startled, and then thought, didn’t the alchemist predict that the little princess would be born on September 12th or 13th?Onset

This is not very accurate

Someone on the side asked "How is this calculated?"

No one could answer.

We couldn't talk deeply, so the ministers sighed and left in regret.

For Zhang Zhou, it is easy to calculate the time of Zhu Xiurong's illness, which is to go back to the 16th day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar when Zhu Xiurong's death was recorded in history.

The onset of smallpox usually takes three or four days to die, and the incubation period averages twelve days

When the news of the little princess's smallpox spread outside the palace and to Zhu Fu, Zhu Fu was furious. .

"Go and call that scoundrel to kneel in front of the hall"

Zhu Feng was pulled to kneel as a punishment.

Being punished to kneel down was also Zhu Daqi who came with Zhu Feng.

"How could it be possible? How could the princess get acne?"

At this time, Zhu Feng still trusted Zhang Zhou.

Zhu Daqi couldn't stand it anymore and said coldly, "Second Young Master, you still haven't understood that Young Master Zhang is deliberately taking advantage of you."

"Use"< /p>

"That's right, even if he is Jieyuan, the second young master can't trust him. This person talks about some weird things that mess up the gods, but the young master still listens to him. This time, I'm afraid even the Duke's Palace will follow him. I heard that my father-in-law has ordered someone to go to Nanjing to teach Zhang Zhou a lesson."

"This is not something I discussed with him. The responsibility is not his alone."< /p>

When Zhu Feng heard this, he almost got up and went to argue with his father.

Zhu Daqi said with a nonchalant expression, "It's useless to talk about it. He used the second young master to involve the Duke of Chengguo in this matter. Of course he will be punished. If he just teaches him a lesson, the second young master will take advantage of him." After you return, you must not interact with him again."

"Ah"

Zhu Feng shouted to Tian Chang, "Zhang Jieyuan treats me sincerely, I'm afraid I'm going to hurt him."

The next day.

The minister was still waiting for the court meeting, but the eunuch Chen Kuan, the eunuch Chen Kuan, the eunuch of the ceremony, arrived in a hurry and informed him that the court meeting would be postponed.

The ministers had already expected this.

Getting smallpox is equivalent to waiting for judgment from heaven.

The little princess is still young, so smallpox is more dangerous, even if she is a daughter of the royal family.

Li Dongyang told a piece of news, "It is said that no one in the Imperial Hospital left the palace yesterday. Perhaps the disease has spread further in the palace."

Tu Fu, the Minister of Civil Affairs, said, "I hope that Your Majesty She is fine, and I hope the princess can turn the corner."

"Yes."

All the ministers nodded.

The little princess is already sick. There is nothing we can do. We hope that the disease will not spread to the emperor.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the court meeting began.

And Zhu Youtang arrived dragging his tired body.

"Dear gentlemen, I have kept you waiting for a long time." Zhu Youtang looked very tired, sitting there breathless even to speak, with this look, which made the minister feel distressed when he saw it.

"Cough cough"

Zhu Youtang also coughed twice.

This made the ministers present feel alarmed, maybe even the emperor was infected

"What did I say yesterday?"

As soon as Zhu Youtang came up , as if to reopen yesterday's topic and continue to talk about the storage of autumn grain.

Wang Ji from Governor Cangchang came out and said, "Your Majesty, if you haven't had a good rest, it's better to postpone these things until later."

"Oh."

Zhu Youtang was startled at first.

Probably because he didn't sleep enough, his mind wasn't very clear. Then he thought of something and smiled in front of everyone, with a look of relief on his face.

When all the ministers saw this scene, they were all dumbfounded. The emperor could still laugh at this time

Zhu Youtang waved his hand to Wei Bin, the eunuch and eunuch who was in charge of etiquette. Let Wei Bin do the talking.

Wei Bin said, "Everyone, the condition of the little princess has improved greatly."

"Ah"

The ministers present were stunned.

I only got sick yesterday, but I am much better today

We don’t know how serious the disease of acne is, right? Even a strong young man has to stay in bed if he gets acne. In three or four days, those who can escape death will basically leave scars from acne.

Wei Bin said, "Yesterday, the little princess suffered from acne. The illness started very quickly, but after the onset of the illness, it was strange to say that there was only a red rash on her body and no pustules appeared. Even if she had a fever, , the fever was not serious, and it went away by yesterday afternoon. Several imperial doctors and Eunuch Dai were taking care of her last night. Even the rash on the little princess's body had gone away in the morning, and she took good food and medicine. It's normal, I can already go to the ground to play."

As soon as these words came out, the ministers present couldn't help but look at each other.

Liu Jian came out and asked, "Your Majesty, was there any misdiagnosis of the princess's condition earlier?"

In the minister's view, if the condition is unusual, it must be caused by a disease. The diagnosis was wrong.

Zhu Youtang said with a pleased expression, "I have asked the imperial doctors, and they also said that there is no doubt that there is acne, but this condition of the little princess is extremely rare. Maybe the princess has God's blessing. However, I even feel that it is because the son of Chengguo's family has done a good job in donating medicine. He can go all the way to the capital to donate medicine without avoiding suspicion. He is a good boy."

"This" Liu Jian is originally a good boy. I also want to deny that the two things are related.

But the problem is

Liu Jian can’t explain it clearly.

Acne has also appeared, which means that the little princess has indeed been exposed to patients with acne, but the illness is surprisingly mild. Can this be explained by common sense?

"I I also asked the imperial doctor, and he said that Dai Yi had been undressed for the past few days and had worked very hard to take care of him. He also had a rash on his arm, but it soon faded away and it turned out that the medicine was really effective. I was ready to take the medicine myself. ”

Zhu Youtang said another piece of news that greatly surprised everyone present.

This time the ministersThere was almost unanimous opposition: "Your Majesty, no"

Zhu Youtang said, "I know your worries, but even the princess is fine. Do you still think there is something wrong with the medicine? But I am not in a hurry." , I first used the medicine for the palace servants. They often go in and out of the palace gardens. It will be fine after they have used it. I, the queen and the prince will use it again." Please remember to collect it. The latest and fastest website without anti-theft is free. Read
