The secret room didn't seem that scary, except that there were some strange bottles and cans displayed on the shelves, and the crying coming from the corner of the room was a bit scary.
Li Sixu and Princess Yue followed the sound of crying and saw several children crowded in the corner. They were hugging each other and crying loudly. They looked at a man who covered himself tightly with a green robe with horrified eyes.
There were several old men arguing fiercely next to him.
"I have only read in the "A Thousand Gold Prescriptions" left by the medical sages that the yellow pus from the sores of people with sores is taken and used to fight poison with poison. I have never heard that you can take abscesses from sick cows and plant them on people. If someone is put to death for making such ridiculous remarks, can you, Mr. Wang, bear the responsibility?"
Wang Tao, Wang Ziqing's grandfather, who covered himself tightly with a green robe, argued: "No, I didn't take the abscess directly from the sick cow, but from the person who was infected with cowpox by the sick cow." The abscesses were removed from the body.”
"The use of cowpox to prevent smallpox is really a ridiculous statement."
Another old man with a white beard advised: "It is better to take the acne pulp from people suffering from smallpox and try it first. It can also be considered as a tribute to the medical sage's words to fight poison with poison."
Li Sixu now knew why the child in the secret room was crying so loudly!
She wonders where these children came from?
However, several old guys from the Imperial Medical Office had not yet reached an agreement on the method of vaccination with cowpox, so they started arguing in front of them, which deepened their panic.
If the noise continues like this, they will only think that they are the guinea pig who was captured and sent to die.
Li Sixu interrupted: "Take the pox pulp from people suffering from smallpox and stuff it into the nostrils with cotton, or grind the pox sores of the sick people into fine powder and blow them into the nostrils. Clothes are given to people who are not sick, and these methods can make healthy people immune to smallpox once infected, so that they will not suffer from smallpox in the future."
"This is what some adults call fighting fire with fire."
The old man's eyes lit up when he suggested taking the acne serum, and Li Sixu immediately said: "But this method is risky. An accident may cause the spread of smallpox, and improper operation may also cause people to get seriously ill and lose their lives. "
"But cowpox is different from smallpox. The symptoms of cowpox are similar to smallpox, but they are milder than smallpox and will not cause death. People who contract cowpox will not die either."
Li Sixu concluded: "So vaccination with cowpox is the safest method. It will not cause the spread of smallpox. The risk is very small, and the Imperial Medical Office can be exempted from responsibility."
The crying children in the corner of the room suddenly became quieter when they heard that vaccination with cowpox would not kill them.
Although what Li Sixu said was reasonable and well-founded, the old men at the Imperial Medical Office could not be convinced by such words coming from the mouth of a child with a yellow mouth.
At this time, Sun Yizheng, who had carefully hidden the blood jade unicorn, came out to protect the calf: "My disciple is right. There is indeed such a record in the medical notes left by my great-grandfather, but the notes are related to the inheritance of the Sun family's medical skills and have not been circulated. go out."
With Doctor Sun's support, the third prince looked at Li Sixu, his eyes seeming to ask her if she was sure?
Li Sixu nodded firmly towards him.
The third prince made a quick decision and said: "Do as my little imperial sister and the imperial doctor say. If anything happens, I will be responsible for it."
Old Man Sun is very protective, and Li Sixu knows this, which can be seen from the fact that he asked her to deliver medicine to Eunuch Yang.
Otherwise, the naughty slave next to Wu Jieyu would bite her before he died, which would be enough for her and the fish beauty.
Because he, a cunning old man, planned for her in advance, not only did she successfully escape the disaster, but she also became a blessing in disguise.
It was just that her Third Emperor brother trusted her so much, which surprised Li Sixu.
She was liked by Yang Guibin and Sister Yue. Although the Third Emperor Brother did not show any hostility towards her, Li Sixu could still catch from his subtle eyes from time to time that he was actually wary of her.
Now he suddenly stood up and said that he was responsible for something, which made Li Sixu momentarily moved, and she felt that she could not betray his trust.
The older children who were crying together were about the same age as Yue'er, and the younger ones looked to be six or seven years old, about the same age as themselves.
They stopped crying now, but their little shoulders were still shaking slightly.
Before asking Wang Tao to vaccinate with cowpox, Li Sixu had one more thing to do. She asked the third prince: "Where did the third prince find these children?"
"They are a few little beggars who were not taken in by the Beitian Hospital. Some of them had family members who had died, and some were abandoned. They had been wandering on the streets for a while. I promised to give them food and they were willing to come to the Imperial Medical Office. "
The third prince said that some of their families had died and some had been abandoned, which meant that their backgrounds had been investigated before bringing them to the Imperial Medical Office.
However, there are many people in the Imperial Medical Office, so it is inevitable that no one will have bad intentions to fish in troubled waters.
If Brother Sanhuang fails to handle this errand, he is likely to get into trouble.
Li Sixu considered it for a moment, then walked towards the children and knelt down in front of them: "Are you willing to be vaccinated with cowpox? It will hurt a little and you may get some minor illnesses, but you won't die."
The children moved back in fear. The older one looked at Li Sixu with wary eyes, and the other boys looked frightened.
Only the younger girl looked at Li Sixu with some curiosity and thought she was really good-looking and had a nice voice.
Knowing that they were afraid, Li Sixu's voice became softer: "I guarantee that you will not die if you are vaccinated with cowpox. If any of you are willing to be vaccinated with cowpox, you can work with me as an errand after you are cured."
Can you stay with her?
The little girl blinked at Li Sixu curiously and mustered up the courage to nod.
Then he said timidly: "I believe you."
The boy who was wary of Li Sixu said anxiously: "You stupid girl, these noble people are not good people. They only treat us as little mice to test medicine."
After Li Sixu said something that Yue'er couldn't understand, she successfully stopped the old men from the Imperial Medical Office from arguing in the secret room. Even her third brother seemed to trust sister Sisi.
Yue'er admired her sister Sisi very much, she could say a lot of things that she didn't understand but seemed to make sense.
She simply couldn't bear it!
How is her sister Sisi not a good person?
Yue'er was so anxious that she wanted to stand up for Li Sixu, but was pulled back by the third prince, so she had to give up.
On the contrary, Li Sixu, who was scolded as not being a good person, was not anxious at all. She chuckled: "Since you know that a noble person like me is not a good person, then whether you are willing or not, I can test the medicine on you."
"If you become a little mouse, you will have the opportunity to stay with me, and you will no longer have to worry about sleeping in the open."
Li Sixu asked him: "Then do you want to be this little mouse?"
