After the father of the subjugated country secretly read my heart, he became angry.

After the emperor praised the five princes for their success, he announced the imperial physician's audience.

Not long after, the ministers who were still in the cabinet heard about the matter.

"The Emperor is feeling unwell?"

"But are you angry with Mr. Jiang?"

"The Emperor is ill. Will the examination for our ministers be postponed?"

The cabinet ministers thought and discussed.

Soon, four or five imperial doctors of all shapes and sizes were seen hurriedly carrying medicine boxes into the inner hall.

At this time, the ministers' expressions became serious.

If the emperor's dragon body is damaged, it will be a major matter for the country and the country!

The daring ministers had already left the antechamber where the cabinet handled government affairs and went to inquire with the eunuchs.

"What's the matter with so many imperial doctors coming in?"

The little eunuch took the money and rolled his eyes.

It wasn't a secret that couldn't be told outside, so I didn't hide it.

"The emperor said that Dr. Xuan will study the prescription."

The ministers were stunned and speechless.

The emperor is still researching ways to prolong life?

Instead of taking elixirs, do you want to take medicine instead?

This is not doing your job properly!

"Lord Fucha, should we persuade the emperor?"

Mr. Fuchage was also troubled for a while, "Let's wait for two days, the emperor is angry."

Jiang Yixu had done a lot of harm to a group of their important ministers today.

When the emperor gets angry, he will test their skills.

Three days later, let them take the exam in the main hall.

The emperor's meaning is very obvious. Those who fail the exam and have no knowledge are not qualified to give advice to him, the emperor!

Fuchage always thought about it and looked at a group of important ministers, "When you go back on duty these days, you all...remember to read Wen Shu."

The expressions of several ministers suddenly changed from red to black.

They are all in their forties or fifties!

Many people's grandchildren have finished their science exams. At such an age, do they still have to go back to study like children? ? ?

"I am in a high position, not to mention that I have the level of a top scholar, but at least in this emperor's examination, I can answer the level of a new scholar."

Mr. Fucha Ge frowned, "Otherwise, you have the nerve to host Enke at the beginning of the new year?"

Several ministers immediately touched their chests in pain.

Three days later, the emperor will give them a test. If they fail, they will be publicly embarrassed at Zhengyangmen!

Like Jiang Yixu, he will no longer have the shame to claim that he is a scholar!

"Mr. Ge is right. Then I will call it a day and go home to read."

"I'm going back too. Hey, I asked my grandson to borrow a set of Ten Years' Scientific Examination Editor-in-Chief."

"Mr. Ge, then I'll take three days off."

"..."

The corners of Old Fuchage's mouth twitched.

A bunch of bastards!

I don’t usually read books, so I have to take temporary leave to make up for it!

He sighed heavily, "Go wherever you go."

Looking in the direction of the emperor's palace, Mr. Fuchage felt heavy.

The emperor is becoming less and less like before.

It seems that it is gradually out of the control of their cabinet.

After this ministerial assessment, he must find a way to give the emperor a blow.

"Londo, you were the top pick, you will definitely pass the test in three days."

Fuchage always thought about it and said.

"You will write a memorial when you get back today, asking the emperor not to be addicted to longevity medicine and not to do business with the imperial hospital."

"The results of the minister's assessment will come out in three days. If you are among the best, you will immediately send in the memorial."

Censor Longdo immediately said yes.

Mr. Fuchage nodded.

If the emperor despises those who scold him for being incompetent, then he will find a champion to scold the emperor.

In this way, the emperor has no objection at all!

Is it time to be obedient?

Emperor's study.

A group of princes saw with their own eyes that Xiao Yunzhou's face changed from a tense look to a face full of joy.

"Okay, Cheng Qian, your story about the plague is very good."

"Read the ancient books and find out how to isolate the body from high temperatures and bury the body as soon as possible. I will immediately send a letter and order the magistrate in the Yellow River Basin to do it!"

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou was greatly appreciated.

Several princes looked at the fifth prince Cheng Qian in astonishment or envy.

Cheng Qian's face was expressionless, still showing the mature look of a young adult, "Father, my son was so worried that he only read the book when he heard the master in the study talk about the floods in the past years."

"But my son hasn't found many ways to combat the plague."

As he spoke, he took advantage of the emperor's break in writing to look gratefully at the baby in the emperor's arms.

It was only after his sister reminded him that he remembered to start researching.

That day, my sister said that she had won three books, one of which was about plague.

But my sister was attracted by E Niang's plan to make winter clothes. She only talked about the improvement method of weaving and did not mention the plague.

Cheng Qian was very sorry at the time, and later wanted to tease his sister before talking, but the prince's studies were very heavy, and when he went to see his sister after dark, she was often asleep.

He never found a chance to hear his sister tell him the secret recipe for the plague.

Cheng Qian thought that he might as well write an article so that his father would pay attention to it.

This is better than doing nothing.

Unexpectedly, today Chu Chu happened to be awake and was picked up, and she was still very conscious.

She lay in the emperor's arms and secretly read the plague article.

Nuojiji’s heartbeat couldn’t stop.

[In addition to the high-temperature disinfection of patient utensils and isolation that my brother mentioned, there are also methods of burying corpses in time. 】

[In addition, there is a prescription for dispersing plague, which contains three qian of Schizonepeta, five qian of gypsum, three qian of trichosanthin, one qian of raw licorice... decoct it in water and take it. 】

The emperor pricked up his ears and his eyes brightened.

The fifth prince Cheng Qian was also overjoyed.

Even if it was possible to reveal that he had heard his sister's thoughts, he felt that it was worth the risk to mention the plague to his father.

If he can save hundreds of thousands of people in the world from the plague, so what if he, a prince, is feared by his father?

Cheng Qian lowered his head, extremely happy, and the corners of his straight mouth could not help but rise.

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou quickly memorized the prescription. He looked up and saw a faint smile on his fifth son's lips. He couldn't help but be startled.

The fifth son has always been mature, and his joy and anger are invisible.

He used to think that this son was the most unkind.

Who would have thought that now that his father had praised him, the fifth son couldn't help but laugh.

Xiao Yunzhou was shocked. After all, his son longed for the praise and attention of his father.

Suddenly, Xiao Yunzhou, who usually practiced Taoism and was indifferent to family ties, felt a rare trace of father-son affection.

It has nothing to do with imperial power or wealth, but something simple, just like the little pride and joy shown in a common family when a child is praised by his father.

It's so heartwarming.

Xiao Yunzhou got a god-given medicine and the love between father and son, and he was immediately overjoyed.

"Your Majesty, the doctors are here."

When Xiao Yunzhou heard the little eunuch's report, he nodded, immediately stopped smiling and let his sons go to study.

"Today I will reward the fifth prince with a bowl of Bijing rice."

"If you other brothers, like Cheng Qian, work for the benefit of the people and have the safety of the world in your heart, I will reward you in the future."

The expressions of the eldest prince and the third prince changed.

After the children left and the imperial doctors came in, the emperor got straight to the point.

"After the flood, there will be a plague. I want you to discuss an effective plague prescription immediately."

The imperial doctors glared upon hearing this, "Your Majesty, plague has been a trivial matter since ancient times. It has not happened yet, and the symptoms are completely unknown."

"How do we study prescriptions?"

Xiao Yunzhou stared.

He was about to get angry when he felt his arm feel heavy.

When he lowered his head, he saw his precious daughter sleeping soundly in his arms, her little head resting peacefully on his right arm, not to mention how well-behaved and cute she was.

Xiao Yunzhou immediately calmed down his anger and lowered his voice for fear of waking up his daughter, Baby Chu Chu.

The imperial doctors were still protesting, "Your Majesty, every line is like a mountain. How could the plague prescription be so easy as the Emperor said?"

The emperors of Jingguo have always been very peaceful, and Xiao Yunzhou was a Taoist. He used to pay attention to cultivating one's moral character and refraining from doing evil in order to live a long life.

Therefore, the imperial doctor was also very courageous. He knew that the emperor would not punish him severely, so he spared no effort to punish Xiao Yunzhou.

"In short, this matter is difficult. So far, there is no effective cure. I hope the emperor will know about it." The leading physician raised his chest.

Xiao Yunzhou's eyes twitched.

But soon he lowered his head and looked at the desk, where he saw the plague prescription that his daughter had written just now.

He glanced at his daughter's sleeping face and recited it shamelessly, "If you read through ancient books, you will know that plague fever since ancient times was mostly caused by the fire in the lungs and stomach meridians."

"You should use Schizonepeta to suppress the evil, and then use gypsum and skullcap to purge the fire..."

Xiao Yunzhou said it in a catchy way.

The head of the Imperial Palace, who was clasping his hands behind his back and looking disapproving, changed his expression as he listened.

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou continued to mutter, "You can't do it, but I was thinking about the safety of the people, so I read the book all night and drew up a recipe."

"Three qian for Nepeta, five qian for Poria..."

"I named this recipe Sanwen Decoction."

"What do you think, huh?"

In an instant, the doctors all opened their mouths and raised their heads.

Looking at Emperor Xiao Yunzhou, they seemed not to recognize him!

Wait a moment.

Wait a moment……

What did the emperor say?

It's not nonsense, it's a precise recipe! ?

The imperial doctors were so shocked that they were speechless.

The emperor was busy with everything, dealing with government affairs. Why... why was he so precise when formulating prescriptions? !
