"Brother Hong, please don't do this in the future. It really scares the queen mother!"
After reading the newspaper, Queen Zhou almost fainted on the spot. Although she had not seen her son for some days, which was also due to the need to isolate her illness, the maid came to report her eldest son's condition every day, so she could sit back and relax.
But the content in the newspaper shocked all the beauties in the imperial palace, including her. If the prince was seriously ill, the government and the public would be in panic. Min's heart was wandering, and the army's morale was wavering. How could they hold on to such a huge capital when the Donglu army was approaching the city? ?
If it was because of Wu Youxing's improper medical treatment that his son became seriously ill, he would be severely punished.
Fortunately, when they arrived at the East Palace, the eldest son and the second son were both eating snacks, and they didn't look seriously ill at all.
After some questioning, she found out that it was a false alarm, and Queen Zhou immediately taught her son a lesson for making her feel uneasy.
"My son, I sincerely ask my mother to rest assured. This is just a strategy to delay the attack! If you cooperate with the immortal magic, it will be easier to defeat the enemy!"
My ability to create mysteries is quite high, as high as a skyscraper.
As long as you can fool the fool, it's worth it.
It is a prerequisite that the capital city is not lost, and you can play whatever you want with the rest.
As old as you are, you have never seen a black man carrying a coffin, right?
A certain prince borrowed ten strong black soldiers from Mr. Zheng, and he could have a lot of fun at that time.
You can also play that tune with the suona, and then it's an improvisational performance.
Perfect!
"If you don't inform Empress Ming in advance, Brother Xun will really worry Empress Ming for nothing!"
Empress Zhou was not in a position to ask about how to defeat the enemy. Since her son had vowed to do it, she could only wait for good news.
"It's not in vain to worry! Mother, look, isn't the child already recovered?"
Speaking of which, when the braided army came to rob me, didn't it give me time to recover from my illness?
Now that a certain prince has recovered from a serious illness, the smallpox virus will not harm himself in a short period of time, so he can use biochemical weapons as he likes!
"Let the queen see it quickly!"
Empress Zhou loved her son so much that she hurriedly stretched out her jade hand and looked at the eldest son's arms and hands carefully.
"Okay! Okay! That's great!"
After seeing that not even a little red spot or scar was left, he smiled with satisfaction.
"Brother is fine too! Come here and let your mother take a look!"
A certain prince hurriedly stretched out his hand to greet Zhu Cijiong, "I am the heartfelt king of the Ming Dynasty." During this period, the little fat man did not delay eating or drinking due to his illness.
"My child, please give your regards to your mother!"
The chubby little fat house was still very polite, but he was just pretending. Except that he didn't jump into the arms of his beautiful biological mother and act coquettishly, everything was the same as before.
"No need to be polite! Let the queen see how she recovers!"
Empress Zhou was very at ease with her eldest son. She was able to force her husband to go to Nandu. His mind was far beyond that of an adult. The third son was still a child and she had to take good care of her.
"Queen Mother, please take a look! Brother Emperor, can I return to my palace now?"
Zhu Cijiong is also extremely excited about recovering from the smallpox virus. He has further strengthened his determination to eat and drink a lot in the future. By the way, he can also travel around the world and play with more beauties...
"You have to follow the doctor's advice and observe for two weeks to prevent recurrence. Once you are sure that you are completely healed, you can eat whatever you want!"
Since the beautiful biological mother no longer wanted to take care of the child and left this troublesome matter to herself, a certain prince had no choice but to act as a temporary nanny. He had to keep an eye on the little fat man's house, lest no one would take care of him after he returned and cause trouble again.
"Oh~! Okay!"
Although Zhu Cijiong was a little disappointed when he heard his brother's answer, he forgot about it. At least he had a sister-in-law to take care of him, and the food and drink were similar to those at his own place.
The imperial brother entertains civil servants and generals, and he can eat and drink with him, and saves the trouble of going back and forth. There is nothing more tiring for the little fat house than walking. Riding a bicycle to generate electricity is at least sitting down...
"Mother, the vaccination of my son and my brother is the first phase of the entire plan. It is now coming to an end, and the results are gratifying. I think it is time to start the second phase, which is to vaccinate the entire noble family. Then the vaccinated people will be vaccinated. We will be quarantined in a centralized place for the time being, and then return to our residences in various places after we recover. My sons and younger brothers, who have weak resistance, will recover, and other nobles will naturally be able to do the same, such as Changping."
Waiting for the third stage, it will be a city-wide vaccination, with officials and soldiers first, and finally the common people.
If the braided army dares to attack the city, it can use "super biochemical weapons" that have never been seen before.
With a certain prince, it is a historical necessity that Ming Dynasty masters the most advanced military technology!
This thing can cover a large area once it is infected. After infection, it will spread all over the mountains and plains.
Once the smallpox virus breaks out, it can infect millions of people in less than two months in high-density areas.
The braid's camp was set up in the wild, which meant that the air circulated quickly because the smallpox virus could spread through the air.
The camp is a place with extremely high population density. With these two prerequisites, once infected wounded soldiers live in the camp for a long time, it is only a matter of time before an outbreak occurs.
"Brother Hong, my mother only knows a little bit about medicine and knows nothing about the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. She has to rely on Brother Hong for everything. The mother just wants Brother Hong to be cautious. This noble man in the queen's residence They are all relatives of Brother Xang, so we must not let anything go wrong."
Queen Zhou also felt that what the eldest son said made sense. Since children could be cured, it meant that this method was symptomatic and could completely prevent the smallpox virus. However, the specific implementation must be methodical to avoid rushing for success and making mistakes while busy.
"Please rest assured, mother, this is an immortal method. Otherwise, I would not dare to use it on myself and my brother. Didn't my mother see it? My son and brother are almost recovered, and they are expected to recover in a few days. This is The blessing of the Ming Dynasty!"
After defeating the pigtails and publishing the good news in the newspapers, Jun Min in the whole city will bow to me in admiration. It is no exaggeration to say that he is Quan Min's idol.
Being able to defeat the smallpox virus is something that only gods can do. If I can do it, my status will be close to that of gods. Now the matter of immortal travel can be completely finalized, and no one dares to deny it anymore.
"If this method can indeed prevent smallpox, it will be a great blessing. From now on, the people of Li will no longer have to talk about being a tiger!"
Queen Zhou knew how serious smallpox was, and if she had a way to prevent it, it would be a great event that had never happened before in all dynasties.
"Mother, I will inform Dean Wu now that in view of the differences between men and women, just ask Dean Wu to bring his female apprentice to diagnose and treat the nobles. I also ask my mother to invite the nobles who have not had smallpox to the queen's residence. Go to the East Palace and receive diagnosis and treatment.”
This matter still needs to be troubled by Old Wu. In the entire army hospital, he is the only one who knows what is going on. Even if others have participated, they only know a certain part of the process.
If you really understand the whole set, you won't be far away from losing your head...
It was okay to tell these noble people that they were undergoing smallpox surgery, as long as they continued to keep the cowpox secret.
If you don’t know the ingredients of a vaccine, you will never know its secrets.
"Your Highness! My Majesty! What a happy event! What a happy event!"
"How happy are you?"
"Feng Quan! Feng Quan is back!"
"Oh? This guy is really lucky!"
"Your Highness, Feng Quan and Xu Dingguo brought more than ten boxes of silver!"
"...Declare it!"
This Feng Quan is really capable. He went around the braided camp and not only did he not be beheaded, but he was also able to bring back boxes of silver. It seemed that he would not be able to do without a reward. Bar
"Your Majesty! Feng Quan! Xu Dingguo! I pay homage to the Queen and His Royal Highness, and wish..."
"You two dear ladies, please go free of charge! Come here! Give me a seat!"
In the East Palace, only ministers with meritorious service can take a seat, and these two people just meet this standard, otherwise they can only stand and wait for orders.
"Feng Quan, tell me the whole story to my mother!"
"I obey!"
Feng Quan's back was soaked now. He was originally frightened in the Donglu camp, but later he was so anxious to return home.
Now he finally had a moment to show off that he had saved the day from danger, and of course he had to take advantage of it.
He immediately recounted his adventures in Donglu's camp, especially how he played tricks on Donglu's group.
Xu Dingguo, who was going with him, was impressed by it. It would be considered a dereliction of his talent if he didn't go to the teahouse to tell stories.
"Get back twenty-two thousand taels?"
"Back to Your Highness, exactly!"
"Okay! It's not too little! Let's do this, Xu Dingguo!"
"The general is here!"
"Ai Qing's loyalty is a lesson. I will reward you with two thousand taels of silver!"
"Thank you very much, Your Highness. I will fight to the death for Your Highness!"
"Okay! Retreat first and go back to have a good rest. When Donglu attacks the city, let's see how Aiqing's troops perform!"
"General, I will obey your order! I will definitely live up to His Highness's expectations!"
After walking around outside the city, he could earn two thousand taels. Xu Dingguo was very satisfied and went back happily to prepare for a feast.
"Feng Quan, your performance really impresses me. I believe that after publishing this matter in the newspaper, you will be greatly praised by your colleagues and the people!"
"Going back to Your Highness, I don't expect to be famous. I just hope to be with Your Highness and solve your problems. I still have a secret to tell you, I don't know..."
"This is my queen mother, I love you and it's okay to speak frankly!"
"Your Highness, I secretly observed Xu Dingguo's words and deeds this time. This person may have the intention to surrender! I dare not make a conclusion, so I would like to inform Your Highness!"
After Xu Dingguo left, Feng Quan immediately made a small report on the other party in order to show his loyalty. Only in this way can he appear safer by sacrificing a scapegoat in time.
Then Feng Quan repeated all Xu Dingguo's words and added some of his own opinions, making people think that Xu Dingguo was a traitor and might retaliate at any time.
"Feng Quan!"
"I'm here!"
"Why do you think I asked you to deliberately express your willingness to surrender to the Qing Dynasty and also presented a defense map? That is a real defense map, there is no fraud at all!"
"...I am stupid and really don't know!"
"It's very simple, because Huang Taiji has always been cunning and cunning, and there are still a large number of Donglu craftsmen in the city, so you can't deceive him with a fake defense map. I will give you this map and ask you to dedicate it to Huang Taiji, and let you Raising Xu Dingguo into the water, do you understand the mystery behind it?"
"...I...I have a bold guess that His Highness must know that Xu Dingguo is planning to rebel!"
"This is the reason why Xue Guoguan recommended you to me. You are smart and able to do things. Because of this, I arranged for you to do this errand. I believe you can also guess who the second minister I mentioned at the court meeting is. , However, with this achievement, most of the doubts others have about you will be dispelled in the future. Can you accept my intention?"
"Your Highness is so lenient and forgiving, and your kindness to me is as great as a mountain. I am so grateful that I can't help but have no intention of surrendering! If the capital is destroyed, I will close my door and commit suicide to repay His Highness's holy grace!"
Feng Quan was so smart. After the prince's guidance, he immediately understood the true purpose of this errand. He never expected that the prince had such an intention.
I really underestimated the Crown Prince. Now it seems that the Crown Prince is truly a wise king, and he will definitely be an emperor in the future. With him accompanying me, he will naturally be remembered in history.
As for reducing the Qing Dynasty?
How can the capital be reduced even if it is not broken?
Wouldn’t it be better to be a loyal minister and eat delicious food?
In the past, Zhao Zilong of Changshan entered Cao's camp single-handedly, but now we, Feng Quan, want to get ten thousand taels of silver from Donglu's camp.
How heroic is such a feat?
How can it be compared to Zhuge Liang who crossed Jiangdong and united with Soochow?
From now on, when people mention their names, the first thing they think of is their loyal ministers. Everyone knows and knows him.
Thinking of this, Feng Quan was so beautiful that he almost laughed out loud...
"Now that you have settled the matter, I might as well tell you that the capital will be captured by the Donglu, but the King's Division will win in the end!"
"...???"
Feng Quan was dumbfounded. Being captured by the Donglu was no joke. This was a dangerous move for the army!
Has the prince lost his wits? How could he act like this?
Could it be...
Even Queen Zhou was extremely nervous when she heard this. If the Donglu soldiers were allowed to attack the city, the capital would be in danger.
"It was part of the plan that you took Xu Dingguo to Donglu Camp to ask for money. What I just said was also part of the plan! This is called 'a plan within a plan within a plan'! Even if Huang Taiji guessed my plan, It can't be cracked, because one link is connected with another. If Donglu wants to capture the capital, he will definitely fall into the trap. This is my palace's 'serial scheme'!"
"Your Highness is wise! I don't dare to have any wild ideas, nor do I dare to leak this matter. I will keep my mouth shut!"
Feng Quan finally understood it now. It turned out that everything was planned by the prince. Regardless of whether he and Xu Dingguo really surrendered, things would definitely happen. The prince had already taken control of the situation.
I thought that Xu Dingguo still had the dream of sitting on his own two feet, but he didn't know that the prince had already seen through him, and this was the defense area that led the Qing army to attack him.
Feng Quan also carefully studied the defense map and found that only Xu Dingguo's defense area was considered the weak point of the entire capital's defense. If the Qing army focused its attack there, it would indeed be possible to break the city.
But now that the Crown Prince is saying this, it means that the Crown Prince deliberately sold a vulnerability to Donglu to lure Donglu to attack Xu Dingguo's defense area. This is "asking you to put yourself in a urn"!
Feng Quan didn't know how the prince could allow the Qing army to break through the city without falling into it, but since the prince said it with certainty, he must have a countermeasure, and this was not something he should inquire about.
Soldiers who, deception also!
That is to say, it is necessary to use falsehoods and falsehoods, true and false, to make the enemy unable to guess their true intentions.
At this moment, Huang Taiji may not know that he has fallen into the trap set by the prince.
The Qing army attacked the west and north sides of the old city, which were the defense areas of the East Palace Guards and could not be captured in a short time.
After hitting a wall, Huang Taiji could only order the Qing army to attack Xu Dingguo's defense area, and now he fell into the trap.
After tasting the benefits, even if he told Huang Taiji directly that this was a trick, he wouldn't believe it.
It just depends on Huang Taiji's ability whether he can swallow the sweetness that just came into his mouth...
