The place where Zhao Yunshu's mother and son live is a separate small courtyard, divided into two sets: inside and outside.
The mother and son lived inside, and the female doctor lived outside.
After questioning, I learned that the female doctor had to spend seven days here and was not allowed to go out because she had close contact with the mother and son.
This made Zhao Yunshu feel very sorry and apologized repeatedly.
The female doctor took it for granted and just said that this was the rule and asked her not to take it to heart.
The small courtyard where Zhao Yunshu, mother and son live is very exquisite, with not only a bedroom, a living room, and even a separate bathroom.
Whether it's a clean flushing toilet or a shower with constant hot water, Zhao Yunshu's cognition is washed away all the time.
Their daily meals are delivered on time from outside.
Put it at the door first, and then the female doctor will take it in after the people leave and distribute it to them mother and son.
The food for every meal is either rice, steamed buns or noodles. The dishes are also a combination of meat and vegetables and are full of oil.
She was fine, but her son was very happy. After all, I have rarely eaten so many delicious things since I was a child.
"It's too much to spend so much money on the slave mother and son. You are so kind and kind, and you don't even know how to repay it?"
The female doctor listened and chuckled.
"You are a relative of Director Wu. According to regulations, you should be treated this way. Don't take it to heart."
He learned that everything he encountered was actually because of his senior brother whom he had not seen for a long time. Zhao Yunshu vaguely noticed that Wu Youxing seemed to be very impressive now.
"Is my senior brother okay here?"
Speaking of Wu Youxing, the female doctor's eyes were full of admiration.
"Director Wu is amazing. In the entire medical system now, apart from Lu Guoshi, Director Wu has made the greatest contribution."
"Lu Guoshi?"
Of course, Zhao Yunshu understood what it meant to be an unparalleled national scholar, and he immediately had an unknown and powerful feeling.
The female doctor knows everything she knows.
"Lu Guoshi is His Highness's adopted sister. Although she is young, her medical skills are unparalleled in the world. She also tried poison herself and found a way to control smallpox. From now on, people in the world will no longer have to suffer from smallpox."
"What? Is there a way to control smallpox?"
Zhao Yunshu was shocked.
She was the daughter of a famous doctor, her family was well-educated, and her father was an expert in plague, so she certainly understood what smallpox meant.
Now that we hear that smallpox has been conquered, how can we not be surprised?
She thought of something again.
"Since the Xia Kingdom has conquered smallpox, why does it still regard this plague as a formidable enemy? Why not save the people of the world?"
The female doctor shook her head repeatedly.
"According to Director Wu, the current plague is completely different from smallpox. It is probably brought by rats. How to treat it has not yet been found."
Zhao Yunshu sat down again, thinking a lot.
"The reason is rats? Aren't rats everywhere? Why didn't the plague happen before, but it happened now?"
The female doctor couldn't resist.
"I don't know the specific reason. I heard that Director Wu has been studying it. Maybe I can know the reason in the future."
Zhao Yunshu quickly apologized.
Suddenly, seven days passed quickly.
On this day, the female doctor came in again. He was holding a small glass tube with a red thread in it, but he didn't know what it was for.
Zhao Yunshu is no stranger to glass.
The wealthy families in Shaanxi have already used glass to decorate their windows. Bright and clear, far better than paper.
"Tuck this thing under your arm."
The female doctor handed the glass tube to Zhao Yunshu and taught her how to use it.
Zhao Yunshu followed the instructions out of curiosity and asked at the same time.
"What is this?"
"This is called a thermometer. It can measure body temperature. If a person is sick and has a fever, it can be clearly seen at a glance."
Zhao Yunshu was amazed and his curiosity was aroused.
After a while, the female doctor asked her to take out the thermometer and observe the scale on it.
"Look, the red line here has risen to this point, which is your body temperature. 36.7 degrees, which is within the normal range. It means that you are healthy and have not been infected with the plague."
Zhao Yunshu only saw the red lines stopping on a few unfamiliar symbols. She didn't know that they were called numbers.
"What is a normal human body temperature?"
"About 36 to 37 degrees."
While talking, the female doctor took the child's temperature again. Both mother and child were healthy.
"Congratulations, you can leave the yard today."
Hearing this, Zhao Yunshu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Looking at this place where I have lived for seven days, I feel a little complicated.
The female doctor returned the things she had brought with her and took them outside.
Wang Changliang and others were already waiting, looking completely different from before.
"Team Leader Wang, your hair..."
Wang Changliang felt very happy as he touched his body.
"I wore a wig before to work in the Ming Dynasty. Now that I have returned to Xia Kingdom, I will naturally return to my original appearance."
Zhao Yunshu looked around secretly and found that almost all the men nearby had weird short hair.
I have long heard people say that Xia State is here to be deviant, but now it seems that it is indeed true.
Wang Changliang didn't know what she was thinking about.
"Director Wu already knows the news of your arrival, but he is busy with the work at hand and cannot come to greet you in person. It is better for us to escort you there and reunite you as soon as possible."
Zhao Yunshu put aside his mood and bowed.
"Sorry to trouble you all."
Mother and son boarded the carriage again and slowly embarked on the journey.
But this time the carriage was particularly different.
No longer two-wheeled, but four-wheeled.
Not only is it more spacious, it is also gorgeously decorated. The road underfoot is also extremely smooth, with no bumps felt at all.
Moreover, the carriage's carriage was made of glass, and the scene outside the carriage came into view clearly.
Zhao Yunshu looked at the unfamiliar Xia Kingdom curiously, but felt that it was full of vitality and prosperity, and it was completely different from the desolation, misery, and decline that he had experienced along the same journey.
Just seeing this scene makes people feel refreshed and full of strength.
Along the way, various sentences were painted on the walls on both sides.
【Eradicating rats is everyone’s responsibility. 】
【Stay healthy and avoid the plague. 】
[Wash hands frequently and ventilate frequently, and the disease will not catch up with you. 】
“This is such a great place!”
Thousands of miles away in the east, there was someone who had the same emotion as her.
That is Sakai Tadakatsu.
The actions of the Tokugawa shogunate and the soteri daimyo to compete for the emperor failed to achieve their goals because of their efforts to contain each other.
The resulting conflict quickly evolved into a full-scale war.
In order to have honor and justice in the confrontation, both sides knew that they must keep the emperor in their hands.
Therefore, both sides quickly sent more troops to Kyoto, forming a confrontation.
The Tokugawa shogunate, with Sakai Tadakatsu as the general general, had as many as 250,000 troops, and almost gathered the vast majority of pro-domain daimyo and genealogical daimyo.
The total strength of the coalition forces on the outside of the Daimyo's side is also 200,000.
The lord of the Choshu vassal, Mouri Hidemoto, was the general.
Because they were worried about Xia Guo, neither side dared to invade Osaka. So the battlefield was placed in the Yodogawa River area north of Osaka Castle and between Kyoto.
This battle attracted the attention of the entire Japan and would also determine Japan's fate.
