Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 262 Vaccination Available

Wang Ping'an was really depressed, and Changsun Wuji was too extreme. In order to eradicate smallpox, he actually had the idea of ​​killing all the cattle in the world. This project is too huge!

Of course, this kind of thinking is extreme in the eyes of modern people, but in ancient times, especially in the era when smallpox was at a loss, this kind of thinking was extreme, but if it was really forced by the state, it might be true. Will get the support of more than half of the people!
There is nothing wrong with the fact that cattle can plow the fields and are important means of production.But no matter how important the means of production are, they are not as important as human lives.Smallpox does not mean that if you exercise your body, you will get it. Everyone will get it, no matter how expensive or not.

In China, emperors who died of smallpox were by no means rare. In feudal society, their lives were as valuable as the sky.In the West, King Louis XV of France died of smallpox. If he is expensive, he should be very expensive, so he still dies!And Washington, it’s not cheap, he got smallpox, luckily he didn’t die, but he got pockmarked because of this disease, and was printed on the dollar bill!
If all the cattle were killed, not to mention how many people's lives could be saved, as long as an emperor's life could be saved, then this order would most likely be carried out.Fortunately, Jenner found a way to prevent smallpox at the same time he discovered that cowpox is also smallpox, otherwise the cows would really be in bad luck!

Changsun Wuji wondered: "Isn't killing all the cattle a way to prevent smallpox? Ah, you mean killing all the sheep too? This is a bit difficult, but if it is really possible to make people feel safe from now on, they don't have to worry about it." , no longer suffer the pain of losing a loved one, then kill them all, it’s nothing special!"

Wang Pingan hurriedly said: "My lord, you have misunderstood the meaning of the student, please sit down and listen to the student explain to you in detail, okay?"

Changsun Wuji sat down slowly, and said: "This matter is no small matter, it can definitely be regarded as a major event related to the national economy and people's livelihood. If you explain it in detail, the old man must listen carefully!"

Wang Pingan said: "Vaccinia is smallpox from cows, and people can get it too. But some students observed... well, I mainly observed the cowherd boys in our village, and I found that they also got smallpox, which was infected by cows." , but it is extremely slight, not serious, and it will be cured soon, and there will be no scars on the face!"

Changsun Wuji uttered a sigh, and said, "This is actually happening. How many cowherd boys are there in your village?"

Wang Pingan said casually: "Over the years, there have been more than a dozen or twenty of them. They are all like this, without exception. So the students thought that although smallpox is a vicious disease that kills people, if they get it once, they will die." There will never be a second chance in life. So if cowpox can give a person a mild case of smallpox, which doesn't kill and doesn't leave scars, why not let a person get a small case of smallpox first, so that he can live with it for life? Don't have a second time, isn't this the best preventive method!"

After Changsun Wuji heard this, he didn't say anything for a long time. After a while, he said: "So, you said that if you want to prevent smallpox, you must first get smallpox. That's what you mean. This is the way to avoid the serious and take the light!"

Wang Pingan nodded and said: "Exactly, that's what the students mean. Avoid the heavy ones and take the light ones. Get the light ones first, and then you won't get the heavy ones again!"

Changsun Wuji gave a heavy hum, and said: "This method is absolutely sure? No disease, you have to know, this matter is very important, and it will bring more benefits than any war. You can't mess with it." Say it!"

Wang Pingan nodded heavily, without any hesitation, he said: "This method is what the students have observed in the past ten years. Although there is no proof that the method is feasible, the students are willing to find out a way to prevent smallpox through dialectical evidence. No matter how hard it is, even if it takes a lifetime, the students will not hesitate!" These words are resolute, very masculine!
People in the early Tang Dynasty were the most pioneering spirits. The more difficult things were, the more they had to do it. It was with this enterprising spirit that the country gradually became prosperous and strong, and finally created the glory of the prosperous Tang Dynasty!Although Li Bai has not yet sung the poems that I am born to be useful, but this spirit has been deeply planted in the hearts of the people of Tang Dynasty many years ago!
Changsun Wuji clapped his hands, applauded loudly, and said: "Okay, I am ambitious, I am a man of the Tang Dynasty, I should be like this, the old man has not misread you!"

After a pause, he said again: "This matter must be carefully planned and thoroughly tested. This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. You have to do it, and you have to do it well. The old man will support you. Report it to the emperor, and the emperor will support you!"

Wang Pingan said loudly: "Students dare not do their best to find a way to prevent smallpox for the people of the world, so that they will not suffer from the plague again!"

Changsun Wuji also nodded heavily, pressed Wang Ping'an's shoulders, and praised: "Seeing you, this old man can't help but think of his youth, when he was also full of vigor, and the emperor, he also faced difficulties. There are so many heroes in the end, all of them are stronger than us, but we haven't wiped them out one by one, what is the reason, what is the reason for this kind of ambition!"

"Students don't dare to compare with the emperor and the eldest grandson, as long as they meet the emperor and the eldest grandson, the students will be satisfied!" Wang Pingan hurriedly humbly.

Changsun Wuji shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, you are naturally incomparable, but old man, you are more than ten times out of ten. If this matter is done well, you will not go to the court, regardless of the government. But it is far beyond the old man. Thousands of years later, not necessarily a few people will remember the old man, but there will definitely be someone who will remember you!"

He suddenly lowered his voice, and said: "Your Turkic apprentice, Ashina Qiboer, will be returning to the grassland in a few days. Before leaving, he will definitely bid farewell to you. About smallpox , you can't reveal the slightest word anyway... Well, you haven't talked to him about it, have you?"

Wang Pingan said: "No, the student has never mentioned it to anyone. If it wasn't for Mr. Changsun, if you asked the student today and insisted on telling the student that he is ugly, the student would still not have said it!"

Changsun Wuji hummed, and suddenly smiled and said: "It seems that the old man really did one thing right. If you don't force you, you won't be able to remember it. If it really happens, it seems The old man also has a contribution!"

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "Of course, it is the elder grandson who deserves the most credit. The students just put in some effort, so there is no credit at all!"

"Hey, I've learned to lie!" Changsun Wuji laughed.

He is very happy today. If the method Wang Ping'an said really works, not only will the people of the world benefit, but the candidate test questions that he is worrying about will also be settled.

There is no need for Wang Pingan to prove it. As long as he mentions this matter to the emperor, the emperor will definitely pay attention to it, and the scientific examination questions can be set as, how to prevent smallpox, what path to find a solution, what kind of method? Policy theory will be more representative than this?
Of course, there are, and that is the new disaster relief law!
Changsun Wuji took a hissing breath suddenly, he thought, if it develops like this, then the two test questions of next year's scientific examination will become the questions given by Wang Pingan, and he will become the chief examiner!
Others are taking the Jinshi examination and looking forward to the top prize. Wang Ping'an is good. He makes up the questions and takes the exam by himself. It is impossible not to win him the top prize!If he couldn't win the first place after he came up with a question, wouldn't it be a big joke in the history of scientific research!

Changsun Wuji was thinking about his thoughts, he would pluck his beard when he was thinking about his thoughts, this time he thought a little more, and accidentally pulled off a few, which made him grin in pain!

Wang Pingan asked: "My lord, grandson, why don't you go back and write down how to use cowpox in detail and present it to you?"

Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "You are more impatient than the old man. There is no need to be like this. Let's eat first. After eating, you can go home and write." He thought for a while, and said: "The emperor has not Before making the decree, don’t tell anyone, let alone do it in the Imperial Medical Office, do you understand?”

Wang Pingan nodded quickly and said, "Understood, understood, students understand these things!"

While the two were talking, Mrs. Changsun came back with a very smug face. As soon as she entered the lobby, before she sat down, she clapped her hands and said, "Okay, okay! The old nephew's problems are finally cured, even the previous problems It’s all cured, so I won’t think about any miscellaneous things this time!”

Changsun Wuji said, "What's wrong with him before? Didn't he just like planting flowers to fumigate the house? Besides, what else did he think about?" Not too clear.

Mrs. Changsun also let out an ah, she was happy for a while, and even slipped her mouth. If the master knew that her natal nephew liked to dress up as a girl, he would have to be kicked out directly, and he would not show mercy at all.

She said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, it's just that I won't make fragrance powder anymore, change my mind and be a man!"

Changsun Wuji was taken aback for a moment, thinking: "He also made incense powder, when did this happen?"

Seeing Mrs. Changsun's embarrassment, Wang Pingan hurried out to smooth things over, he said: "Master Changsun, the student came to the mansion this time to inquire about the position of the Imperial Physician. When will the Ministry of Officials issue official uniforms to the students?" ? It's really embarrassing for students to sit in class in casual clothes!"

Seeing that Wang Ping'an was so sensible and trying to smooth things over for herself, Mrs. Changsun glanced at him and thought, "This kid is really sensible, he is a good boy, his parents are not in Beijing, no one cares about him, I have to care about him, and speak out for him." Good family to go!"

Changsun Wuji immediately stopped thinking about incense powder, turned his head, and said to Wang Pingan: "It doesn't matter how many ranks you have, and it doesn't matter whether you sit or not. The emperor means that you only have a name." , Letting you act as an imperial physician's order is an affirmation of your medical skills and a compliment, not to ask you to sit in any hall. What else is there to sit in the hall of the Imperial Medical Office!"

After thinking for a while, he said again: "Emperor Medical Office, you can go around if you have time, and forget it if you don't have time. According to the old man, the emperor probably has no intention of letting you enter the court immediately as an official. You can still take part in the scientific examination next year." Yes, when the time comes, you will be selected as a Jinshi, become a first-class scholar, and ride your horse through the streets, wouldn’t it be wonderful!”

Wang Pingan sighed: "To be honest, my lord, the student has not yet reported to the Ministry of Rites. Up to now, he still hasn't considered what to take the exam. I don't think there is any need to take the exam for the medical department. The student has already made a doctor's order. The road is only half a step away, and it has come to an end. As for the Jinshi examination, students can write poems fairly well..."

Changsun Wuji smiled and said, "If your poems are passable, what will others do? If you want to be as good as you, it is estimated that in the entire city of Chang'an, in three to five years, it is impossible to find such poems. people are coming!"

Wang Pingan chuckled dryly, and said: "But the students don't know anything about current affairs policy, and have never written it. I'm going to take the Jinshi examination, so I can only wait for the failure of the exam, and it is impossible to be selected, so...for a while I am very hesitant, do I want to take part in the scientific examination next year?"

Changsun Wuji thought to himself: "You haven't written policy theory? If you knew what you will be taking the exam next year, you wouldn't have said that. So what if you haven't written it. Once the topic is issued, you can write whatever you want. You can write whatever you want. You can win, no examiner dares to say that he won't nod you!"

But of course he would not say such things clearly, and said with a smile: "It's better to be admitted to the Jinshi Department. You don't have to worry about some matters reported by the Ministry of Rites. The old man will order someone to do it for you. You just need to stay at home and take care of that matter. Write it down in detail, and that's it!"

Wang Pingan hurriedly said: "Yes, the students will definitely handle things seriously, adults can rest assured."

Mrs. Changsun let out a cry, and said, "What are you talking about, you're talking like a godsend, and you're still playing a riddle. What are you going to do? Can't you hide it from me?"

Wang Pingan hurriedly said: "No, no..." Just as he didn't know how to explain, Madam Changsun waved her hand and said, "Don't tell me, what I am most impatient with is listening to these things!"

She smiled at Wang Pingan again: "Ping An, what is your birth date, tell me!"

As soon as Changsun Wuji heard what she said, he understood that the old wife wanted to show her enthusiasm, so he hurriedly said: "There is no reason to tell outsiders about everyone's birth date, you are so stupid, you need to ask more. "

He winked at the old wife, and then said: "If you are not sick, the old man will not keep you. You can go home now and do what you need to do." As he said, he stood up unexpectedly, looking It's to see off guests.

Mrs. Changsun was about to act as a matchmaker, but he interrupted her and said in an unhappy way: "What are you doing, why are you driving the child away, keep him for a while, I still have something to ask!"

Changsun Wuji ignored her complaining, took Wang Ping'an's hand, led him out of the lobby, and he personally sent him to the gate.As soon as Changsun Wuji came out, the people outside the door who were waiting to flatter him all stood up with a bang, bowed and saluted together, and shouted: "See Xiangye!"

Changsun Wuji ignored them, not even interested in taking a look, and said to Wang Pingan: "The weather is hot, if your place is too hot, then send someone here to fetch some ice cubes to cool off the heat. Well, the old man asked Someone send it to you!"

A servant had brought the white dragon horse long ago, Wang Pingan got on the horse, and on the horse he clenched his fists at Changsun Wuji, saying that he should leave. Changsun Wuji nodded and said, "Slow down, ride carefully!"

Just as he was about to leave, he heard someone in the mansion shouting: "Master Wang, walk slowly!" A maid ran out with a food box in her hand, trotted to the front, handed the food box to Wang Pingan, and said: "Master Wang, Madam said that you didn't eat well today, so she specially packed the dishes for you and asked you to take them home to eat!"

The little girl spoke in a crisp voice, and as soon as she finished speaking, the hundreds of people at the gate of the mansion all exclaimed in unison!
