There is a big problem with my harem [Qing Chuan]

In the evening, Concubine Zhao was busy in and out directing the palace people of Yikun Palace to prepare a large table of dishes in the flower hall, all of which were the emperor's favorite.

The dishes were ready, but Concubine Zhao was still not satisfied.

She directed the maids to come back from the imperial garden with bouquets of just-opened flowers, carefully adorned and placed in the middle of the vase.

She didn't return to the main hall anxiously until everything was finished, and sent someone to guard at the gate of the palace.

And Mother Tang even directed the four little eunuchs to guard the gate of the apse, with thousands of urgings and ten thousand urgings that the two concubines in the apse must not be allowed to come out to make troubles.

Concubine Guo Luoluo and Concubine Jia Shu were not stupid either. Seeing this, they both went back to the bedroom early and ordered the maids to close the door.

Simply out of sight and mind is quiet!

But the unusual silence outside made Concubine Guo Luoluo and Concubine Jia Zhang Er Monk puzzled.The emperor who came to have dinner left after only an hour!

On the second day, news spread that Concubine Zhao was seriously ill.

It didn't take long for concubine Zhao's elder brother to be thrown into prison for fear of being questioned. There was an uproar about the kidnapping case's popularity, and there was a reason for Niu Colufujin Bayara's crying yesterday.

Many concubines laughed so hard that they almost lost their breath, and couldn't help gloating.

Fortunately, Concubine Zhao has only been dancing for a few days, so I'm afraid she's about to die again!

The news soon fell into the ears of Kangxi who returned to Dongnuan Pavilion after the next court.

Kangxi said not to be angry...can he not be angry?

As the eldest son of the Niu Gulu clan, Se Liang was actually involved in the kidnapping case. Fortunately, he was afraid that the Niu Gulu clan would have a hard time after Ye Bilong was released from prison, so he offered a lot of rewards, but now he directly dumped a lot in his face A few slaps!

That crackling sound made him very angry even thinking about it now!

Thinking of Concubine Zhao who fell ill after being vented by him for no reason yesterday, Kangxi felt a little uncomfortable.

"emperor?"

Liang Jiugong looked at Kangxi's uncertain complexion and spoke cautiously.

Before Kangxi walked back to the imperial case, he looked at the table quietly for a long time. His slender fingers were holding the writing brush, which hung in the air but did not fall for a long time.

Suddenly, he held his breath and concentrated, dipped the pen in the ink, and wrote a line of large characters on the paper with a few swipes.

After waiting, he nodded towards Liang Jiugong.

"Have someone send my imperial brush and the gift to Niu Gulu's residence together."

"twitter!"

The chief eunuch Liu Tongfang held the framed calligraphy hand-carried by Kangxi himself, and the eunuchs behind him carried all kinds of imperial gifts from the emperor, and went to Niu Gulu's mansion in a mighty manner.

When he came down this trip, everyone inside and outside the palace would naturally know that although he was extremely dissatisfied with Niu Gulu's bright color, the emperor treated Concubine Zhao and Niu Gulu's family as usual.

This not only made Ye Bilong heave a sigh of relief, but also made Concubine Zhao, who was dejected in the palace, heave a sigh of relief, knowing that Se Liang's matter is finally over!

After appeasing Niu Gulu's house, Kangxi returned to the kidnapping case.

Staring at the topographical map brought by someone, Kangxi stood behind the case with his hands behind his back, thinking about something thoughtfully.

Standing in front of him are Suo Etu, a scholar of the Palace of Preservation, Ker Kedai, Minister of the Ministry of War, Wei Yijie, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and Li Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Households.

Wei Yijie's mouth was full of bitterness. He never imagined that the case of Lin Ruhai's daughter's abduction would involve so many people. Not only were many families in the capital suspected of covering up the connection business, but also there was a vague figure of a feudal prince behind him!

In particular, the fact that the Zhen family secretly sent money to Wu Sangui made him shudder.

It is clear that there are still several years before the San Francisco Rebellion in history, but Wu Sangui has already had a wolfish ambition, and the Zhen family's methods may not be able to do it in a year or two!

Li Wei was even more frowning. Mi Sihan, the left servant of the household department, cried to him not once or twice, complaining that the San Francisco is now becoming more and more powerful, not only occupying the tax collection of the salt government in its territory, but also intensifying its demands for various things from the court. The money made the whole household department miserable.

There are even ministers who have written to try to increase taxes, but the taxes have been increased, and now the people who have finally breathed a sigh of relief since the end of the war will probably suffer again.

There is also the category of Corkodai—a cold light flashed in Kangxi's eyes. This person was unaware of the power of the San Francisco. He didn't know about soldiers and horses, and he didn't know about grain. It's like a decoration!

Just as the atmosphere in Dongnuan Pavilion was gradually stagnant, a young eunuch entered the Qing Palace to communicate.

"Your Majesty, the head of the House of Internal Affairs, Garu, please see me!"

"Announce him in."

"twitter."

"The slave sees the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

"Exemption." Kangxi nodded and asked eagerly, "How is the cowpox matter arranged?"

Galu stood up with a smile on his brows and eyes: "Your Majesty, the people sent by the servants to the surrounding area and the cattle ranch in the north have returned! After the examination by the accompanying imperial physician, it is true that none of the cattle breeders died of smallpox as the emperor said. situation, but many people have scars on their bodies or faces!"

Thinking of the few children he had died from smallpox in succession, Galu said excitedly with trembling voice and tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, if smallpox can be prevented, it will be a merit of all ages!"

"Why are you so excited if you haven't succeeded yet?"

Kangxi just shook his head at Galu's flattery—although he knew the existence of cowpox in later generations, how to apply it to children still needs careful research and experiments by the imperial physicians, and it may be difficult to implement it within a year. .

Just thinking of Chengrui who passed away, and Chenghu who is white and fat now, Kangxi became more serious: "I will hand over this matter to you, Galu, what I want is to be foolproof!"

"The slave obeys the order!"

"Your Majesty!" Suo'etu, who had stood silently on the side, took a step forward full of surprise, "What is cowpox?"

There was surprise in his eyes, and he vaguely had an idea from Garu's mouth, which shocked him greatly.

As soon as the news of the cowpox spread to the harem, it immediately set off a huge wave!

Concubine Ma Jiashu, not to mention the loss of her beloved son, was full of thoughts, and the empress and other concubines were immediately shocked!

You must know that so far, smallpox is a discoloration disease that everyone hears, especially infants and young children.Even if the concubines in the harem were not as good as the concubine Ma Jiashu, there would always be one or two, two or three relatives who died of smallpox in the family.

All of a sudden, there was a turbulent sea, and even the empress dowager was shocked, and she repeatedly asked people to drag the emperor to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to ask for clarification!

When Kangxi came to the Compassionate Ning Palace, the main hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace was already full of neat concubines, looking at Kangxi with curiosity and excitement.

Kangxi paused when he stepped into the main hall, and then walked in as if nothing had happened.

"The grandson is for the emperor's grandmother, and the emperor's wife pays her respects."

"Concubine (concubine) pay respects to the emperor!"

After saluting, the empress dowager hurriedly pulled Kangxi to sit next to her: "Emperor, Aijia heard that Galu has developed vaccinia...? What is this vaccinia? Can it really prevent smallpox?"

As soon as this question came up, not to mention the empress's hand tightening around Cheng Hu, the concubines next to her couldn't help raising their heads and pricking up their ears to listen carefully.

Among them, Concubine Borzigit stirred the handkerchief, staring at Kangxi with twinkling eyes.
