After the Fifth Prince had finished speaking to Xue Yao, he turned back to see if Seventh Brother had gained any valuable experience from this, only to find that his fat younger brother was already spread out on the table in a state of hopelessness.
"What's wrong with Old Seven?" The Fifth Prince wondered, "Still so tired from sitting here resting all the time?"
The fake-dead Seventh Prince suddenly straightened up and looked indifferently at Fifth Brother, "Next month, when we watch the lion dance, Brother will stay in a guest room by himself."
"Brother sleeps with you." The Fifth Prince didn't really care as he picked up the herbal tea and took a sip, "Big brother asked me to keep an eye on you."
"Don't sleep together." The Seventh Prince didn't care about brotherhood in the slightest.
The Fifth Prince put down his teacup and said suspiciously, "Why?"
"Brother snores." The Seventh Prince was full of resentment.
"Aigoo! Old Seven has grown up and dislikes his brother?" The Fifth Prince slammed the table, "When I was a child and went to the academy for the first time, who hugged Fifth Brother's leg and coaxed him to sleep?"
Pretending not to remember, the Seventh Prince asked solemnly, "Sixth brother?"
"It's you!" The fifth prince raised his eyebrows and eagerly hooked up his arm, gesturing: "You have to sleep on my arm like this! The little fat hand also tugged on the collar, not allowing me to turn around, you sleep so soundly! How come you didn't mind my brother's loud snoring at that time?"
The seventh prince sideways pointed to his left ear, explained: "Master this ear may have been brother holler deaf, now only one left, can not risk with brother sleep."
"You ungrateful little brat!" The Fifth Prince raised his arm to strangle the little chubby cub, and was pulled back by the calf-protecting Xue Yao!
In the end, they compromised, and the Fifth Prince and Sixth Prince stayed in the guest room they had booked, while Xue Yao and Little Fatty lived in the next room and watched the game together during the day.
*
Two days later, the Crown Prince's entourage came to the academy and invited Xue Yao to the Crown Prince's Hall to catch up.
Xue Yao's intuition was that something had gone wrong, and as soon as he entered the hall, he saw the Crown Prince frowning with his hands folded, pacing back and forth.
"Your Highness." Xue Yao stepped forward to greet him.
The Crown Prince turned his head sideways slowly, "Xue Yao, you are truly divine."
Upon hearing this, Xue Yao guessed that in all likelihood, something had happened in Ping Rong County.
But he couldn't say it outright, and waited for the crown prince to make it clear.
He has the ability to foretell things and is not worried about not being honored by the Crown Prince, but foretelling can be due to anticipating things as if it were God, or it can be due to evil magic and sorcery, the latter of which can easily lead to disaster.
He had to keep his abilities within the bounds of his talent and strategy to keep himself safe.
The Crown Prince did not like to sell secrets and told him directly, "Ping Rong County is really plagued, I listened to your advice half a year ago and dispatched seven famous doctors to station in the area, and I have just gotten urgent information that two famous doctors are dying because of a strange disease in the area. Most of the other healers refused to take any more consultations and are clamoring to leave the affected county, leaving only one healer still tending to the sick."
Xue Yao nodded and said, "I was looking for my family and friends that day, and I happened to see a patient - the patient's face was greenish gray, and from time to time black blood overflowed out of his mouth and nose, which made the situation very horrifying."
The Crown Prince nodded: "Thanks to you reminding Lone to make preparations first, if a large-scale farmer's death from illness or relocation occurs in the trial counties of the new policy, and then exploited by someone with a heart of gold after the fact, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Xue Yao thought for a moment and returned, "Reporting the epidemic to the Emperor may prevent the traitors from blaming the sick and dying populace on the new law."
"I'm afraid not." The Crown Prince frowned and said, "This time the new law is competing with the nobles and gentry around the countryside for profit, stopping them from exploiting and annexing the fields at high interest, how many pairs of eyes are staring at the three trial counties, once rumors of a large-scale plague arise, they will definitely take the opportunity to say 'the new law goes against the heavens and invites doom for the people', when the plague rages as usual, the new law will be repealed, and the people will begin endless suffering again."
Xue Yao opened his mouth to speak.
Actually, I wanted to politely remind the Crown Prince that he could wait until he was on the throne before engaging in new laws, but that was not easy to explain.
Because the Crown Prince didn't know that the Emperor was going to be on imperial leash in a few years.
According to the Emperor's current state of health, it would be no problem for him to live to be eighty years old.
Daqi Royal men, each top body bones times great, the old emperor is seventy years old after the birthday of the initiative Zen position, the current emperor is not their own death, at least can still be the emperor for decades.
So in the Crown Prince's mind, it was still early days for him to become Emperor, and at this point, Xue Yao had no reason to advise him to be patient.
"Now we can only send additional famous doctors to save the day." Xue Yao had prepared for this plague.
Although he did not devour the medical books, he read through the records of the several plagues that were recorded as having haunted the countries of Asia and Europe in ancient times.
Disease, he would not cure, but the recipe for the cure, he had transcribed.
However, the symptoms of the plague in Ping Rong County were not the same as the plague that had been documented in the book, and the formula was certainly not entirely applicable.
Although there was no symptomatic formula, Xue Yao suspected that this plague was an offshoot variant of the historically documented plagues, and that healers might be able to gain insight from these formulas.
However, even in ancient times, you can't just take a living person as a guinea pig, it still has to be tailored to the individual.
"Your Highness." After Xue Yao decided, he immediately arched his hand and asked for an order, "Next month, after celebrating the seventh prince's birthday, can I ask for an order to accompany the renowned doctors to Ping Rong County to save the day."
The Crown Prince slightly narrowed his phoenix eyes and waved his hand, "There is no need, for one thing, this plague is extremely fierce and unpredictable, and for another, you don't know medicine, so why take this risk?"
Xue Yao returned, "I'm not only slightly versed in the art of medicine ......"
"A slight proficiency in healing skills certainly won't come in handy, those who are proficient in healing skills have all collapsed, so why should you take the risk?" The Prince said, "Lone let you come, not want to let you heal and save people, but want to listen to your prediction of the state of affairs, to be honest, Lone really admire you this anticipation of the ability of God."
Xue Yao: "......"
Prince see him look overwhelmed, and comforted: "This moment certainly no clue, don't be anxious, you go back for lone think about it."
Xue Yao nodded and said, "Your Highness, I still want to accompany the famous doctor to Ping Rong County to aid the sick."
The Crown Prince frowned, "I appreciate your thoughts, but there's really no need to take this risk." He turned his head towards his book case and raised his chin, signaling Xue Yao to take a look, "That's an urgent report from Ping Rong County, read it once and you'll understand."
Xue Yao led the way over and took out the letter paper and unfolded it to read-
In addition to mentioning that the two healers were seriously ill, the letter recorded some sensationalized symptoms of the plague.
Even though the ancient letters were all in refined literary language, Xue Yao could still sense from them how terrible the situation on the ground had become.
The letter even records the folklore of "looking at each other and inviting the plague".
Meaning: normal people have contracted this terrible plague because they looked at the patient.
Xue Yao certainly didn't believe in this means of transmission.
But this rumor, which implied that the plague was spreading violently, he had prepared for it, and had previously refreshed a kind of 【Medical Extra Protective Breathable Fabric】in the mall, which was suitable for making into protective clothing.
Most of the formulas for treating plague documented in the book require the extraction of plasma from self-healing patients and the use of immunoglobulins and antimicrobials in conjunction with injections for treatment.
It's hard to explain this new and innovative treatment to the Prince or the ancient doctors.
You may be taken for a lunatic for saying it, or you have to operate on your own.
Moreover, several formulations of antimicrobial drugs, all of which Xue Yao had refreshed and bought from the system's medicinal herb mall over the past few years, were only enough for a total of one to two hundred people.
If he waited until the epidemic had spread, he wouldn't even have enough potions on hand.
The urgent report sent back from Pingyong County said that more than seventy peasants had been infected with the plague and could not afford to be delayed.
Therefore, he insisted on following the healer and traveling with him to Ping Rong County.
The Prince felt that he would not be able to help if he went and that it was really dangerous, so he still refused to agree.
Xue Yao then took out his own credits from raising food, flaunted his abilities, and stubbornly insisted on going.
The Prince couldn't argue with him, so he had to make a deal with him - no unauthorized contact with the patient.
"Xue Yao, you're so impenetrable." The Crown Prince said to him, "Several of your younger brothers are very dependent on you, I always thought you had the cleverness to charm the Lord, and the matter of raising grain made me impressed with you. I thought you had career aspirations, but you refused my invitation. And thought you know the art of Huang Lao, the torrent of courage to retreat to protect themselves, now you risk your life to ask for orders, what are you really thinking about?"
Xue Yao: "......"
I didn't realize that Aido imagined him so highly!
What Huang Lao technique, he had never heard of it!
The young royals depended on him because they had been fed from a young age with his flavored milk and novelty zero hours.
The grain was raised to protect the Crown Prince and to keep the little chubby cub's backing intact.
The reason for not joining the civil service is that there will be a period of time in the future when the political situation will change suddenly and it will be difficult to stand in line, so it will be very easy to get in and out of trouble, and it will be difficult to protect one's life.
Going to control the epidemic was still to protect the crown prince and complete the system mission in the meantime.
Xue Yao's idea was that simple.
But analyzing it from the Prince's point of view is indeed bizarre.
Xue Yao, who had no way to explain, could only reveal a vicissitude and mysterious bitter smile.
"......" The Prince looked at him with growing admiration.
After obtaining the Prince's approval, Xue Yao has to face an even bigger problem - the little fat kid won't let him "go out to work".
Last time I went back to Jiangzhe dropped the value of security, it took three months to milk back to one hundred, this time I do not know how much to drop.
Xue Yao discussed with the Crown Prince that he couldn't tell the several young emperors that he was venturing to the Plague County, and only said that he was going to his hometown to visit his family.
However, this plausible excuse can only be used to say goodbye to a warm baby.
For the little chubby boy, it's still "abandon my son".
*
In the evening, in the Qingdao Palace's side hall, Xue Yao had his evening meal with Consort Shi and the Seventh Prince.
Faced with the little fat cub's wary gaze, Xue Yao's heart was weak.
As if he hadn't even opened his mouth, the little chubby boy had already sniffed out his intention to "run away" again.
"I really don't want to leave Your Highness' side for a moment." Xue Yao was about to say "but" when he was interrupted by the Seventh Prince -
"Your Highness don't but." The Seventh Prince had a cold face.
Xue Yao still said it, "But I haven t seen my ...... uncle grandfather for many years."
"Have him come to the capital to meet you." The Seventh Prince gave the solution.
"He's not in good health now." Xue Yao had a pleading face, "I have to go to my hometown to visit my uncle and grandfather."
Seventh Prince: "Your Highness visited Uncle Grandpa with Yao Yao."
"You don't have a grand-uncle." Princess Shio calmly shattered her son's illusion.
Xue Yao coaxed, "I will soon return to the capital, your highness can't delay studying and practicing martial arts, if you can't follow me out of the capital, the emperor and the empress won't agree."
The Seventh Prince immediately patted Consort Shio on the back, "Your Highness will be reasonable enough to let my son out of the palace."
"No." It was as if Shiofei was an emotionless killer.
The Seventh Prince turned his head to curry favor with his mother consort, "How about Master gives you a Quaestor to catch the sun?"
"Not listening." Princess Shio was unmoved.
The Seventh Prince picked up his chopsticks and picked up a small ribs and handed it to his mother consort's bowl and asked her, "Which is the most well-behaved Your Highness?"
"Sixth Prince." Consort Shio grabbed the answer without giving face.
"...... "The seventh prince's little bun face was stunned on the spot, and after a moment of despair he looked up and around, "This must not be the Green Vault Palace, my son is looking for other mother consorts to ask."
"Just go." Princess Shio had a cold look on her face, "The Mother Consort you live here doesn't want you anymore anyway."
The Seventh Prince thundered from the clear sky, turning his head to look at Silly Yao Yao with an aggrieved face!
Xue Yao: "......"
Let you talk to your pussy!
