Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

You can tell what Li Shimin is thinking by looking at his expression.

"Yes, Aye. I have already tested it. And our Prince Ji's Mansion has been vaccinated from top to bottom. We are currently inoculating the pox in the military camp." Li Shen said and exposed his arm to let him see the pinhole. Location.

"Okay, if it is really possible. Can it be implemented nationwide?"

"Yeah, it may take a long time to implement it nationwide. Because cowpox grows on sick cows. We don't have that many cows. After these cows recover, they will not be infected again. We can only tell them one by one. Implementation. And local cattle are needed to infect them. Because I don’t know how long it will take for these pox to be ineffective after leaving the cattle, so I can only vaccinate the pox on site. So I am afraid it will take a few years for smallpox to disappear in the Tang Dynasty." Li Shen knew that smallpox would disappear in later generations. Disappeared.

"Disappeared in a few years?" Li Shimin was overjoyed after hearing this. Smallpox appears every few years. A lot of people die every time. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is one of the reasons for suppressing population.

Li Shen thought Li Shimin had disliked him for a few years. So he said: "If the imperial court decrees that the states and counties cooperate and recruit a group of people for training, let them go to various counties. This will take a shorter time. But the imperial court needs to give these people some salary. They cannot be allowed to work in vain. Life is not."

"Okay, let's see if your method is effective first. If it is effective, then do as you say. The imperial court is responsible for promoting it. Someone, go to the Imperial Medical Office and call all the imperial doctors. Let them observe it too."

Li Shimin also meant that he was afraid of danger.

After a while, the imperial doctor ordered Li Xiuwei to come over with more than a dozen imperial doctors. Hearing that King Ji could prevent smallpox, Li Xiuwei came at a trot.

When Li Shen saw that the imperial doctor had arrived, he didn't waste any time. He took out some pox liquid with a tool and injected it into Concubine Wei. Then he called Li Mengjiang, followed by all the servants of Daji Palace. In fact, vaccination with cowpox only requires a little bit. (For the sake of rigor, Concubine Wei and Li Mengjiang did not use the same needle.)

"Your Highness Prince Ji, I wonder if I can give it a try." Li Xiuwei wanted to experience it for himself.

"Of course. I hope you will teach others in the future." So Li Shen gave Li Xiuwei another pox vaccination. Except Wei Guifei and Li Mengjiang. Others use a knife to apply it on shallow wounds. When Li Xiuwei asked why there were two methods, Li Shenzhi said that the knife cut hurt, leaving Li Xiuwei speechless. The main reason is that Li Shen doesn't have so many sterile needles.

"Aye, do you want to give it a try? I also plan to do it for my mother. I think it should still be useful. There are two sisters in Sizi Xincheng who also want to plant. It is best for children to plant." Li Shen asked road

"Your Majesty, I have something to do later. I'll wait for two days before planting." Wang De saw that Li Shimin wanted to talk and answered immediately. Wang De was afraid of being unsafe and wanted to observe what Concubine Wei and the others were talking about.

"Don't worry. The most filial person for Lao Shi is the imperial concubine. Even if something happens to me, he will not let the imperial concubine get into trouble. Since he came to Daji Hall first, it proves that this thing is safe, and he is the first to leave good things to him. Mother and concubine. Then you will consider me." Li Shimin said sourly to Wang De.

Wang De thought about it for a while. Every time there is something good, it must be the Daji Hall first. Then there are His Majesty and the Queen. It's definitely safe to come here first this time.

Li Shimin stepped forward and Li Shen directly made a cut with a knife. Li Shimin's eyes were on fire. It's not that it hurts much. Mainly because Li Shen didn't let him get the same treatment as Wei Guifei, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. But Li Shen said that the remaining needles should be reserved for a few children. It’s hard to say anything myself. Half an hour later, all the planting in Li Zheng Hall was finished. Not many people actually. There are not many people in each temple.

"In the next three days, you will have some symptoms, but it doesn't matter. The doctor can prescribe some medicine. Everyone's symptoms are different. But there is not much danger to your life, so don't be afraid. When you get sick, try to have people who have not been vaccinated take care of you. . If this person is infected by luck, then he will save a chance to vaccinate others. Drink more water and rest and it will be fine in two or three days." After Li Shen explained everything, he led the cow away. The cow can be used for a few days after returning. Then after recovery, it is returned to the farmer. (The statement is based on experts’ opinions after masks were opened. An infectious source with mild symptoms will also have mild symptoms when infecting others.)

Sure enough, as Li Shen said, Li Shimin started to have a fever that night. There is pain all over the body and pimples appear on the body. Li Shimin did not go to court the next day. By the morning of the third day, most of the pimples had gone away and he no longer had a fever. Li Shimin recovered on the fourth day. Most of those who received cowpox in the palace were like this, only some were weak for a longer period of time. For example, Queen Changsun was ill for six days before she recovered.

On the morning of the fourth day, when the ministers saw Li Shimin coming to court, they all asked about Li Shimin's physical condition.

"My dear friends, my body has recovered. I was about to talk about this today. I was sick for three days because I received the cowpox from King Ji. You may not know what this cowpox is. As long as you are vaccinated with cowpox, you will not be sick anymore. You will get smallpox. Now everyone in the harem has started to be vaccinated against cowpox." Li Shimin happily recounted

"What do you mean, you can't get smallpox in the future?"

"And this magical bean?"

"I haven't heard of it before. I only heard that some people won't get it again after getting it, but most people who get smallpox have bumps on their faces."

"Okay. Now let the Imperial Physician Ling explain it to everyone." Li Shimin interrupted everyone's discussion.

"My lords. It is indeed recorded in medical books that if a person recovers from smallpox, he will never be infected again in this life. King Ji's method actually has the same effect, but the symptoms of the disease are reduced several times.

I haven't had time to ask Prince Ji for the specific reason. But King Ji had a joke. "Li Xiuwei has read many medical books and has rich experience. So he figured out the principle of Li Shen's vaccination.

In fact, there were similar methods in ancient times, such as wearing the clothes of infected people. But the risk is too great.

"What did King Ji say?" Cheng Yaojin asked with an expression as if he was listening to a story.

"King Ji said, it is said that smallpox is a punishment sent by heaven, and those who have been punished will not be punished in the future. Then he will find a way to cover up the secret of heaven and make God think that you have been sick. Then you will not be punished in the future. You won’t get it again.”

People in this era advocate the theory of ghosts and gods. The more you cannot understand something, the more you feel it is caused by ghosts and gods. So after Li Xiuwei told Li Shen's nonsense, some people actually believed it.

Otherwise, the raging smallpox for thousands of years would definitely be a sin from God. Why can Li Shen solve it?

"No matter what the reason is. As long as it works, it's a good idea. I plan to spread the word to all states and counties in the world to cooperate in vaccination, and recruit 1 people to go to the states and counties to vaccinate with cowpox. I want everyone in the Tang Dynasty to be vaccinated with cowpox within two years. . From now on, we will no longer be afraid of smallpox." Li Shimin made the final decision

"Your Majesty is wise. This will benefit the present generation and benefit the future generations. Your Majesty will definitely be remembered in history." Fang Xuanling's flattery came one after another.

"Yes, yes. This is a major event that benefits the country and the people."

"Your Majesty is holy and wise."

"Your Majesty"

The ministers of the imperial court also flattered Li Shimin. He was so beautiful in his heart that he originally planned to go to Mount Tai to become a Buddhist monk next year. But since there is such a thing, of course we will talk about it in two years. This is a great achievement.

Next, Li Shimin began to recruit personnel. Li Shen asked the thousand guards who knew how to vaccinate to start teaching and vaccinating at every city gate in Chang'an. Li Shen had to inoculate all the people in Chang'an first before he felt safe. Li Xiuwei and several imperial doctors rushed to Zezhou to conduct large-scale vaccination.

All the cattle near Chang'an have been requisitioned by the government. When they are used up, they will be sent to you. If they die, you will be compensated. Who dares not to borrow it?
