Qing Dynasty Transmigration: After Lying Flat, Kangxi Heard My Inner Voice

Yinreng has lived for three lifetimes. In this life, he just wants to get along well with his brothers, be a carefree prince, live a life without worries about food and clothing, and explore the be...

Chapter 477 Cowpox

"At this point, you're still sticking to those ridiculous etiquettes. Your life is over."

Yinreng stabbed Soetu in anger, then realized that his words were inappropriate, sighed and said,

"I know that your greatest wish in this life is to watch me ascend the throne. Now your wish has been fulfilled. I will look after the Hesheli family in the future... You can relax..."

A smile appeared on Soetu's old face. He had been with Yinreng for so many years and knew his character best.

Apart from being a bit cruel when dealing with corrupt officials, Yinreng basically never made a big deal about other things.

So he just told his children and grandchildren to be more cautious and refrain from doing evil things.

As long as they didn't do anything bad, even if they had no talent in the imperial examinations, Yinreng would help them find a job that could make a living.

"Thank you, Your Majesty... Your Majesty's visit to visit this servant... is already a great favor..."

Soetu still couldn't stop calling himself a slave in front of him. Yinreng looked at his weak appearance and his throat was choked with choking, unable to utter a word.

Perhaps people talk more when they are about to die.

Soetu pulled his two grandsons over and made them swear that they would do their best to assist Yinreng and Yuanbao in the future.

His mind had been confused for most of his life, but at this moment he finally became clear and did not mention the advice that Yinreng did not want to hear.

A moment later, Yinreng pulled Yuanbao out of Soetu's house, and the sad cries of Bosile and Chengfengyou were heard behind them.

Soetu died.

For some reason, Kangxi ran out of the palace to burn incense for Soetu.

Yinreng felt uncomfortable for a while, and then he plunged into new government affairs.

Less than two months after Soetu's death, the director of the Imperial Hospital checked Yuanbao's pulse and suggested to Yinreng that Yuanbao be vaccinated against smallpox.

Only then did Yinreng remember that Yuanbao still wanted to be vaccinated against smallpox.

Smallpox vaccination is very dangerous, especially for children whose immune systems are not yet fully developed. It can kill the child if you are not careful.

In order to accumulate merit for himself in his previous life, Yinreng revealed the fact that cowpox could also prevent smallpox early on.

At that time, his reputation among the people was unprecedentedly high, so there were many people who joined his army.

It was precisely because of that incident that he became alert that in this feudal dynasty, it was not a good thing for the prince to have too high a reputation.

So for the next twenty years, he tried to keep a low profile as much as possible.

Let the brothers do all the things that require attention.

The result was the same.

He tried his best to avoid it in this life and completely forgot about the cowpox.

It wasn't until his son was facing a crisis that he dug out those ancient memories.

Yinreng immediately ordered the Imperial Medical Bureau to study the connection between cowpox and smallpox.

Although Lin Weikai and others did not understand the situation, they still followed Yinreng's instructions and began to recruit "volunteers" from the public at a large price to inoculate human smallpox and cowpox for experiments.

At first, Yinreng thought about using the death row prisoners in the Tianlao for experiments, but after thinking about it, he felt that such a thing would still be against the harmony of nature.

In the end, I gave up this plan.

Compared with other dynasties, the death penalty trials in the Qing Dynasty were very strict, and the emperor was the final judge.

Having lived in an era in later generations when human life was more important than anything else, Yinreng still had great respect for human life. There was no such thing as unjust, false or wrongful conviction for anyone sentenced to death by him.

Those death row prisoners in jail can no longer be called human beings, they are all beasts.

Yinreng had been on the throne for seven or eight years. During these seven or eight years, the people he sentenced most were beggars who trafficked in human beings.

Basically, as long as it was confirmed that a criminal had kidnapped someone, even if it was only one person, Yinreng would sentence him to death without hesitation.

What's more, it is impossible for them to kidnap only one person.

In this era without surveillance, the chance of being discovered while trafficking one or two people is very small.

But it is impossible for them to abduct only one or two people.

After all, human trafficking costs the least and makes the most money.

Once they tasted the sweetness, those people began to think about how to make more money.

Therefore, those who were thrown into the cells were basically gang members.

Just as the Imperial Hospital was conducting experiments intensively, a jaw-dropping incident occurred in the commercial street.

That day, several foreigners with slightly dark skin, deep eye sockets and high nose bridges came to the jewelry shop under Yin'er's name.

As soon as they entered the store, they asked the shopkeeper in extremely poor Chinese to give them the most valuable jewelry in the store.

Seeing those foreigners dressed in luxurious clothes, the shopkeeper thought they were important customers, so he invited them upstairs in a friendly manner.

He brought the best jewelry in the store in front of them and asked for a huge price, raising the price by 20%.

After several foreigners commented on the jewelry, they paid for the most expensive set.

She took the jewelry and left the shop.

The shopkeeper happily accepted the gold and silver, and sent the man out with a smile on his face. He felt that this business was really easy.

Over the next few days, this group of foreigners did the same thing. After buying three or four sets of jewelry, they set their sights on the pearl headpiece in the center of the store.

In this era without pearl farming, it is extremely difficult to collect a set of plump and round pearls to make jewelry.

Even if there were any, they were all collected by the royal family and even high-ranking officials. Some were made into jewelry, and some were made into court beads.

A longan-sized Dongzhu can be sold for ten thousand taels of silver, and it is still priceless.
