The news in the palace is actually very strange. Sometimes it doesn't leak at all, and other times it falls apart quickly.
On this day, Brother Ninth was reprimanded, and then the news spread quickly. The doctor at the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs would start calculating the qualifications of others and his own qualifications whenever he had nothing to do.
Who doesn’t want to be promoted to head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs? Even if it's to help Brother Jiu, that's fine! As long as you go up and do it for a long time, Sun Wuyou and the whole family will be able to take advantage of it; if you don't do it for a long time, if you transfer to the outer dynasty, you can make up for the full number of ministers.
Everyone was excited, but they could only wait. There was no place to camp. It's up to the emperor to choose, do they still dare to go to Qianqing Palace to camp?
Everyone had resented Dong Dianbang because of the gossip outside, and secretly collected information about Zhang Baozhuo and Gao Yanzhong to see if they had pigtails.
As a result, Dong Dianbang said that it was Master Jiu who said that the emperor would look at seniority, and the two doctors in our court were junior and were not among the candidates. The same was true for Dong Dianbang, a doctor who had been in office for less than half a year.
Everyone thought about this and then turned their attention away from these people. On the eighth day of November, the Holy Spirit left the Forbidden City in a mighty manner and went to the Nanyuan Paddock. The eldest brother, the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother, the fifth elder brother, the eighth elder brother, the tenth elder brother, the thirteenth elder brother and Fourteenth brother is accompanying him.
The ninth elder brother came here early according to the rules, and brought the twelfth elder brother and the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to see the emperor off.
When the ceremonial guard of the Holy Master was far away, Brother Jiu was a little startled. Fu Song in Nanyuan Paddock. Is Khan Amma really pregnant, or is he going to see the results of the cowpox test?
The twelfth elder brother was standing by, watching the ninth elder brother calm down, and he didn't know how to comfort him. He still remembered Brother Ninth's words at noon yesterday, and was worried that he would feel uncomfortable.
The ninth elder brother touched his chin and looked back at the twelfth elder brother. It is strange no matter how much you think about the royal father's disregard for the twelfth elder brother. You must know that the twelfth elder brother had acne and was seriously ill and almost died, which is why Khan Amma started to call for people to try it out.
"Volume". If you really don't like this son, how could you do this? But I liked it when I was a child, but why did I ignore it when I grew up?
But there was no way to ask. The twelfth elder brother saw the unpredictable expression on the ninth elder brother's face, and his face showed confusion.
Brother Jiu rubbed his eyes, yawned, and said, "I woke up so early. I'm really sleepy. Go back and catch up on your sleep!" There was an Arhat couch in the back room of his duty room, ready for a summer nap. of.
The ninth elder brother told the twelfth elder brother and went inside to catch up on his sleep. *On the imperial road outside Beijing, there was a huge team.
The princes and elder brothers are all dressed up similarly, wearing uniform hoods, riding horses and accompanying the Holy Chariot. The eldest elder brother was talking to the fourth elder brother, and they were talking about the Holy Emperor's patrol of the Yongding River in the next few days. He said: "The lawsuit has started again on the river. These people don't do their jobs properly. They spend the whole day thinking about forming gangs and attacking each other. If you are so annoyed, you should arrange for the Eight Banners to go to work in armor, just like in spring, how happy it is, and the river work is progressing quickly!" But the fourth brother knew that this was not a long-term solution, and he would just transfer it once in a while. In the long run, it would be The Eight Banners accumulated grudges.
Everyone wears armor to find a job, and they hope to make meritorious deeds in battles, but few people watch the Yongding River work all year round.
The third elder brother was staring at the fifth elder brother's Zaohua horse, which was another Tianshan horse. How many Tianshan horses did the fifth elder have?
Although he is currently riding a Tianshan horse, he only has one horse to ride on, so why does he feel that Lao Wu has changed several horses?
When I visited the north in the summer, I took two horses with me, one white and one black.
"Fifth brother, is this another new horse being honored outside?" Third Brother couldn't help but ask. The fifth elder brother touched the horse's neck, nodded with a smile and said: "Sent from Horqin..." The two horses in summer were thinner, and they didn't get better in autumn. This time he changed to two new horses when he went out. .
The eighth prince was standing by, listening to everyone talking and laughing without interrupting. A while ago, the Ministry of Punishment was busy reviewing the death row prisoners, and the officers sent to various provinces also received news one after another.
The fraud in the middle has been confirmed beyond doubt. The eighth prince felt excited in his heart. Even if he couldn't be directly promoted back to Baylor for his achievements this time, he could still accumulate half of it.
At this time, he has to be more careful. He glanced at his brothers. This time he will not be fooled again, nor will he conflict with them.
The Baylor Hat must come back before we can talk about anything else. No one will wish him well, they wish they were worse off than they are.
There are several small ones on the other side, but they are much quieter today. The fourteenth elder brother glanced at the tenth elder brother, and then at the brothers on the other side, feeling that he understood the ninth brother's dissatisfaction.
In fact, Ninth Brother has many injustices just like him. Outsiders say yes
"The beloved concubine's young son", but whether you are favored or not, you have to compare with who... Nanyuan Paddock is just twenty miles south of Yongding Gate. In the middle of today, the Holy Driver arrived at Nanyuan Paddock and stayed at Nanyuan Palace. .
The perimeter of the paddock is one hundred and twenty miles, divided into four quarters. Starting tomorrow, there will be several sieges. Today there is no unified arrangement.
The fifth elder brother simply settled it and went to find the paddock manager. There are many deer, deer, roe deer, etc. raised in the paddock here.
The fifth elder brother still remembered the doe he sent to the Ninth Prince’s Mansion last year, and he wanted to choose a few this time, not only for the Ninth Prince’s Mansion, but also for himself.
As a result, he asked people to search around but couldn't find it. At this time, the manager of the paddock had already led Kangxi out of the palace and to a house in the southwest corner of the paddock.
There were already people waiting in the yard. The young, handsome and tall person in front was Fu Song, and the two men with white beards next to them were two old doctors from Tai Hospital who were responsible for acne epidemics.
Seeing Kangxi coming, everyone greeted him respectfully. Kangxi raised his arms and shouted, then strode into the house.
Everyone followed in. Kangxi looked at Fusong and asked: "What time is it? What's the result?" Fusong held the booklet in his hand and replied: "In the sixth time, there were a total of 180 people. Twelve people failed to be vaccinated, but they survived smallpox. According to the imperial physician, even if the vaccination fails, the toxicity of smallpox can be weakened... Three people died, one suffered from cold, and two suffered from intestinal colic, all after the vaccination was successful and had nothing to do with the vaccination..." Kangxi nodded and motioned to Fusong to present the booklet.
The booklet is an inch and a half thick, and the data recorded on it are more detailed. The time before and after each vaccination, the time of flowering, the time of fever, and the time of defervescence are all detailed down to every moment.
Kangxi looked at the two old doctors. The faces of the two old doctors also showed determination and joy. The leader said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Majesty. Cowpox is more appropriate than 'ripe vaccine'."
The fatality rate of "variolus" raw vaccine is 10%, and the mortality rate of mature vaccine is reduced to 30% to 40%. Even so, it is also daunting.
First, they are expensive. Mature seedlings are difficult to collect and store. They need to be prepared in advance. The cheapest ones cost more than ten taels of silver.
The second is the mortality rate of three to four percent. People are afraid of death, and no one wants to bet on whether they are one of the three or four percent.
that's why
The "variolation" program has been implemented for many years, and the internal results of the Eight Banners are good, but it cannot be popularized among the people. Many of the Eight Banners have requirements for selecting guards and filling flag vacancies.
A "familiar person" means someone who has had sex before. so
"Volume" was easily promoted among nobles. But for the people, it cannot be forced, it can only be done voluntarily.
"Cowpox" here has a fatality rate of less than one percent. Perhaps this statistic is not rigorous and needs to be further tested and verified, but at the moment it looks better than
"Mature seedlings" are better, but the cost is the same
The same as "seedlings", even better than
"Seedlings" are even lower. Kangxi did not praise the two imperial doctors, but looked at them and said: "In February next year, I will send the seventeenth elder brother to come for vaccination!" After hearing this, the smiles on the faces of the two old imperial doctors froze and their bodies shook.
Kangxi's face was serious and he said: "What? Are you treating me in the lake?" An old doctor hurriedly said: "I don't dare, it's just the prince's daughter's body, cowpox has just been tested and has not been promoted, so it is not as good as the mature vaccine." ." Another imperial doctor was also nervous and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, the imperial hospital has prepared the 'cooked vaccine' needed for the prince. It has been promoted for more than ten years and has improved the method of vaccination, which is more reliable." Kangxi But he was unmoved. He looked at the booklet in his hand and said, "If the records here are true, then it would be more appropriate for Brother Seventeen to be vaccinated against cowpox rather than human pox." Fusong watched the whole process, and there were two eunuchs in front of the emperor. There is no way to falsify this data.
Even so, the two imperial doctors still couldn't feel at ease. Although the fatality rate has dropped to less than one percent, or a few thousandths, or even less a few thousandths, that is not 100% certain.
What if Brother Seventeen is that few thousandths or ten thousandths? When the time comes, even if they lose their minds, the whole family will be affected.
The two looked at Fusong. Fusong followed the imperial doctors throughout the entire process, witnessing and recording data. Even if he is not the one who personally performed the vaccination, Fu Song will not be able to escape the blame if his elder brother really fails to get vaccinated on February 17th next year.
Fusong had nothing to say. For an Ama, is there any need to choose between a few percent and a few thousandths?
The reason why we chose February next year instead of waiting for another two years is because the seventeenth brother is here, which is the time when children are most susceptible to smallpox and die young, so there is no time to delay.
After the emperor said it, they listened. The two imperial doctors looked at Fusong's reaction. They lost their last hope and their bodies collapsed. They bowed and agreed... *It was the last half day of the month, so they rolled around asking for monthly votes.
