Chapter 70: The 70th Day of Wanting to Die
Seeing that he was really scared, Yin Zhuo touched his little head and explained the principle to him again.
It was the first time that Yinzhen heard such a magical thing.
Is cowpox more effective in preventing smallpox than human pox?
The reason why he was so disgusted was because it was cowpox, which was extracted from cows. At least it was still a human before, and his brothers were also vaccinated with human smallpox. How come it became cowpox when it came to him?
So Yinzhen couldn't accept it for a while.
Although this was proposed by the sixth brother, it was the second brother who went to study it.
He felt uncomfortable at the thought of getting the cowpox.
But since Sixth Brother said so, he had no choice but to agree.
"Don't be afraid, I'll go with you."
Yinzhen was about to refuse: "No need, Fourteenth can go by himself."
He was really worried about Sixth Brother's small body.
Never mind. Since he is the stronger one, let him go first.
This moved Yin Zhuo deeply. The little brat finally had a sense of responsibility.
"In a while, Sixth Brother will do something big. Do you want to come along? I'll teach you how to do the experiment."
[We need to find some time to teach them some biological knowledge, such as hybridization and grafting. We need to explain these principles to them. Then we may be able to grow hybrid rice, and then people all over the world will no longer be hungry.]
Yin Zhuo thought about it and then felt fortunate. Fortunately, his grades in biology were pretty good and he still remembered it clearly in his mind without forgetting it at all.
Just when Yin Zhuo was rejoicing, he suddenly realized something.
Wait, why didn't I forget?
Yin Zhuo secretly swallowed his saliva, feeling a little excited.
Could this be his golden finger?
Have a photographic memory?
Yin Zhuo remembered again that he had only taken a quick look at the Jenny machine, but the entire principle of the machine was written down on the note he had given to the Emperor.
Yinzhen felt that his sixth brother had become strange again. He could not understand what he was thinking at all.
Because Sixth Brother started speaking English again!
What are the differences?
Yin Zhuo suspected that he had found a bug!
Not only does he not know how to treat illnesses as a medical system, but now he has discovered that he has a photographic memory. If this isn't a bug, what is it?
Yin Zhuo was dizzy.
Yinzhen became even more dizzy!
Should he tell the Emperor about Sixth Brother's situation?
Sixth brother doesn't look normal.
He has been in a daze for a quarter of an hour, and he really can't understand what is in his mind.
This was the first time that Yinzhen felt that he was so useless.
It would be nice if the Emperor were here.
The Emperor would definitely understand.
Okay, Yin Zhuo figured it out. This way he will have something to do in the future.
In this case, he decided to take his younger brothers to do some interesting experiments.
After Yin Zhuo figured it out, he and his brothers decided to add a biology class.
Tell them about the biological sciences they learned in middle and high school, so that they don't foolishly think they are really dragons.
[The Emperor is already foolish enough, others should not be so stupid.]
Yinzhen's body stiffened as his sixth brother spoke ill of the Emperor again.
Fortunately, the emperor is not here at this time. What can he do?
I can only help Sixth Brother keep the secret.
But Yinzhen felt that even if the emperor heard it, he would not do anything to his sixth brother.
Now the sixth brother has become the number one person in the emperor's heart.
Even though Sixth Brother always says how much the Emperor loves Second Brother, he is still not as good as Sixth Brother now.
When Kangxi heard that Yin Zhuo was going to accompany Yinzhen to get vaccinated, his first reaction was to oppose it.
"No, you are too weak. I cannot let you take risks."
Kangxi frowned and said firmly to Yin Zhuo.
Nothing must happen to Xiaoliu.
[Alas, if I don’t go to hell, who will? Besides, there is nothing wrong with getting vaccinated against smallpox. I want to set an example for people all over the world. Otherwise, we don’t know how long the vaccination will last. The sooner it is implemented, the sooner some people will be spared from suffering.]
Just when Kangxi was moved, he heard him mention Baocheng again.
[The emperor must have been very sad to see that the second brother had smallpox at such a young age. It is better to have less tragedies like this. After all, not every child can have the good fortune and conditions that the second brother had.]
Kangxi was silent.
At that time, he didn't dare to close his eyes day or night. He was afraid that if he closed his eyes, Baocheng would not wake up.
He has fulfilled his responsibilities as a father by treating Baocheng well throughout his life.
He taught him personally until he was 12 years old, and then allowed him to study with other teachers in the Shangshufang.
Baocheng lived up to his expectations and performed extremely well, meeting his expectations in every aspect.
He hasn't chatted with Baocheng for a long time.
As Baocheng grew older, the relationship between father and son became less close.
[Alas, when he was young, the second brother should have been the most perfect work of the emperor. Whether in terms of knowledge or ability, he met the emperor's expectations. But the second brother is also an individual, and he has his own ideas. Think about how the emperor changed the palace maids in Yuqing Palace regularly to prevent the second brother from being too close to the emperor. Such a desire for control is really scary. The second brother has been a lonely person since he was a child. Maybe this is also the reason for the formation of the second brother's arrogant character. He is cold-blooded and lacks empathy for ordinary people. Maybe the final ending is all in the foreshadowing. ]
Yin Zhuo was inspired to write this.
But no one could stop his determination to get vaccinated against smallpox.
"Don't worry, my dear Emperor. Nothing will happen."
Kangxi moved his mouth as if to say something, but was confused by Yinreng's affairs and finally said nothing.
He said to Xiaoliu: "Good boy, you have suffered."
Kangxi was completely intolerant.
Xiaoliu suffered too much for them.
Although the mortality rate of cowpox is low, the physical fitness of those who are vaccinated is enough to vaccinate eight times, so he still can't let it go.
He turned to look at Yinzhen and warned him, "As a younger brother, you must take good care of your sixth brother and never let him get into danger."
But he was still a little worried, and finally Yin Zhuo used both soft and hard tactics to make him give in.
Yinzhen watched helplessly from the side, feeling that he was such a pitiful person, but he accepted the mission to protect his sixth brother!
Who can guarantee that he will become a great general in the future? It is his duty to protect the Sixth Brother.
He assured Kangxi: "Don't worry, Father Huang, I will protect my sixth brother with my life."
Kangxi was amused by him and reached out to touch his head, but Yinzhen dodged subconsciously, and Kangxi paused.
Or maybe Yin Zhuo couldn't bear to watch it anymore. What were these two people doing?
He pushed Yinzhen, and Kangxi's hand finally fell on Fourteen's head. Then Kangxi said with emotion: "Fourteen has grown up too."
I know how to protect my brother.
Fourteen’s face turned red.
When they walked out the door, they all walked hand in hand.
Yin Zhuo found it funny.
【Fourteen's face is red, he still likes the stinky old man, is it because he is old or because he doesn't wash his feet? Alas, Fourteen's previous life was also pitiful. He grew up with Eighth Brother, but Eighth Brother died. Fourteen stayed in the capital and lived on his memories. There seem to be many fan fictions about 148. I met you when I was young, you protected me and I grew up, and after you died, I gave up everything and spent the rest of my life guarding my memories with you.】
Yinzhen was stunned, and even Kangxi in the room was confused.
Has the relationship between Fourteen and Eighth reached this extent?
Yinzhen's hair stood on end when he heard what his sixth brother said. Is his relationship with his eighth brother so good?
Yinzhen said nothing and began to reflect.
I was too cruel and willful to the starling.
After hearing what Sixth Brother said, he decided not to play with him. Eighth Brother has always been sensitive, and I wonder if he will be sad.
Now Yinzhen suddenly wanted to see him.
Because the Emperor and the Sixth Brother don't want to see them fighting with each other anymore, otherwise why would the Sixth Brother do so much.
Are you asking for trouble?
Yinzhen's eyes were slightly red, and he tugged at the corner of his clothes helplessly, looking completely dazed.
He was still very young, but he knew the fate of everyone. He abandoned his fourth brother and joined the eighth brother's camp. He never bowed to his fourth brother until his death. This might be the result of political games.
But now he wants to win both, he is a little too greedy.
Yinzhen knew, but he wanted them all!
Yinzhen wiped his eyes quietly, not wanting his sixth brother to notice anything unusual.
Then, he quietly increased his speed and stretched out his little hand to pinch the corner of Sixth Brother's shirt.
Yin Zhuo was stunned, then turned around with his eyes crooked: "Boy, are you scared? If you want Sixth Brother to hold you, just tell me, Sixth Brother will protect you."
[I knew this kid was just trying to save face in front of Mr. Kang, but now he can’t hold it anymore. He even said he would protect me, but now let’s see who is protecting whom. Do I still need an eight-year-old kid to protect me at my age? Humph.]
Yin Zhuo snorted twice in a proud and coquettish manner.
Yinzhen shook his hand back, his eyes sparkling, and he looked childish for once: "Sixth brother, I'll take you riding a horse when the time comes..."
Along the way, Yinzhen told him a lot about future plans. It was the first time that Yin Zhuo realized that he was a chatterbox.
Saonian, your character has collapsed!
Aren't you very cold and indifferent to everyone?
Yinzhen doesn't care whether his image collapses or not, he just wants to grasp the present and enjoy the present moment.
He was indeed too depressed before, keeping everything in his heart. Perhaps his reliance on the starling was because there was someone who cared about him and was willing to listen to him.
Kangxi watched the two children walk away hand in hand. He felt relieved but also sad. He couldn't believe what kind of path the brothers would have taken in the future if Xiaoliu hadn't said these things.
The fourth and the eighth...
Fourteen and Four...
How can I put it? As the emperor, he doesn't want to see such tragedy happen again.
So, Kangxi thought about it and called Yinreng over.
Yinreng is feeling very awkward now. Ever since Xiaoliu told him about his unique hobby, he has felt a little guilty towards Kangxi and doesn't know how to face him.
The emperor raised him by hand, but when he grew up, he wanted to fly even before his wings were strong enough.
As a result, he was unable to escape the high wall built for him by his father. He lived under his father's watchful eyes all his life, and Yinreng felt that he was quite useless.
He doesn't deserve the emperor to be so kind to him.
康熙見到胤礽的第一眼,就嘆了一口氣,然後道:“皇阿瑪這麽久沒仔細看你,你都瘦了。”
說着,他給胤礽整理了一下衣服,發現胤礽的衣服都寬松了不少,臉上也蒼茫一點,沒有之間那種細皮嫩肉的感覺。
有種孩子一夜長大的感覺。
康熙給他整理還衣服之後拍了拍他:“不知不覺你都這麽大了,都有孩子了。”
想到弘皙,胤礽臉上也柔和了一些。
“兒臣大了,皇阿瑪也老了。”
胤礽眼睛慢慢變紅,十分的感慨。
兩個人對視着都沒有說話。
半晌,康熙才道:“朕這段時間都沒有怎麽關心你,你有沒有什麽想法?”
要知道之前小六也說了,他親征的時候着小子都不願意親自給他回封信,別提多狠心了。
胤礽伸出手抱了抱康熙,然後帶着些委屈的道:“兒臣還以為皇阿瑪不愛兒臣了……”
康熙吸了吸鼻子,也抱住拍了拍他的背:“你呀,現在知道皇阿瑪的好了。”
胤礽認錯:“是兒臣之前太放肆了,不知道珍惜。”
康熙雙手一僵,然後道:“好了,還跟小時候一樣跟皇阿瑪撒嬌呢,弘皙都沒這樣,你這做了阿瑪的還一團孩子氣。”
胤礽道:“兒臣說實話而已,而且兒臣在您面前一直都是孩子。”
康熙聽到這話也很熨帖,然後腦子裏就想到了小六。
“對了,牛痘推廣的如何?大家是不是都還在觀望?”
胤礽聽到他說正事了也乖乖做好跟皇阿瑪彙報:“是,大家都認為牛痘不可信,畢竟那是從牛身上出的痘。”
康熙背着手,說出了他的想法:“剛剛小六帶着十四過來了,說他們願意接種牛痘為天下人做個表率。”
胤礽心中一震。
沒想到皇阿瑪竟然同意讓小六去試試。
小六那身子骨能行嗎?
胤礽覺得十分不靠譜。
他擔憂的道:“小六的身子沒問題嗎?”
康熙也嘆了一口氣:“他說他相信自己。”
胤礽不語,既然這樣的話,那他也不放心,雖然小六透露了很多關于他的秘密,但他也沒有怨恨他,反而有點挂念。
他想了想,決定還是親自做點什麽:“皇阿瑪,放心,他們二人兒臣來照看。”
康熙點頭:“也好,你出馬,朕也放心。”
他原本就想跟胤礽說這事,現在見他主動提了,也順勢應下,然後又對他道:“朕打算讓索額圖去東北造船廠,你有何想法?”
索額圖一直都跟胤礽有聯系,康熙都是知道的。
胤礽現在聽到皇阿瑪這麽說沒有一點害怕,因為二人的關系更加的親密了,他也相信皇阿瑪不會對他做什麽。
他也想知道索額圖和納蘭明珠的下場是怎麽樣的。
但現在小六不在,他也不能去找小六問,皇阿瑪既然有了安排,那他也點了點頭:“聽皇阿瑪的。”
康熙滿意了,難得胤礽說了這麽多軟話,他心情高興,處理政事的折子效率都高了不少。
等到晚上讓人喊小六他們過來一起用膳的時候,就聽梁九功道。
“兩位阿哥已經種上痘了。”
梁九功額頭都冒冷汗了。
怪他,沒想到想到六阿哥的效率這麽高,一回去就去找人來幫他們種痘了。
康熙也是一驚,打算親自去看看,但阿哥所那邊已經封起來了。
他進不去,而且衆人也不會讓皇上去冒險的。
誰知道這牛痘是什麽結果呢,雖然太子殿下沒事,但皇上畢竟年紀大了。
康熙只能在外面聽裏面的消息,讓人看好他們兩個小的。
然後就去找永和宮找德妃了。
太醫院動作很快,鄭太醫親自過來給接種的牛痘,然後尹灼就跟十四隔離在一起了,兩個院子外面也讓侍衛看着,不讓別人靠近。
德妃聽到她兩個兒子都去接種了牛痘都快暈過去了,這都是什麽事啊。
先是老四被派去江南,都沒跟她見一面就走了,然後就是這小六跟十四,派人跟她說了一聲,面都沒見就去接種了那什麽牛痘。
那牛痘是太子帶人研究的,但太子本人也沒接種過啊,而且太子之前他得過天花,這輩子都不會再得了,但她的小六跟十四不一樣啊。
康熙過來的時候就猜到了德妃的狀态,見她果然要死要活的,都成淚人了,也連忙安慰了一番。
話雖然那麽說,但德妃是兩個孩子的親額娘,那心怎麽可能就放下,于是拼死拼活的要去照顧兩個人。
最後康熙派人給攔下了。
他離開的時候忍不住搖了搖頭,小六要離了他可怎麽辦啊,也只有他能給小六收拾爛攤子了。
阿哥所,十四跟尹灼都露着胳膊,肩膀上破了一個口,牛痘已經接種上了,下面就是觀察。
太醫院拍了兩個太醫過來,嚴格按照步驟來的。
尹灼給他們講了一下關于處理病患中的注意事項。
“鄭太醫你們知不知道洋人那邊有那種消毒酒精,就是高濃度的酒,然後能夠消毒,消毒的意思就是空氣中有很多灰塵,要是混入傷口會使傷口發炎,然後紅腫潰膿,而消毒酒精就可以消滅那些灰塵。就像剛剛鄭太醫一樣,雖然用火烤了一下刀尖,但并不保險……這種酒精……你們可以試試。”
尹灼把消毒酒精如何制作的給他們說了一下,現在重點還是蒸餾技術。
【唉,難不成我要開始制作玻璃了嗎?沒有玻璃怎麽做燒瓶,怎麽蒸餾啊!】
胤祯都聽呆了,他知道有的人受傷了會在上面吐一口酒,但沒想到酒的濃度也有要求。
鄭太醫早就有經驗的讓人記了下來,然後嚴肅的道:“六阿哥放心,臣記下了,會讓院使大人跟皇上說的。”
這肯定要跟皇上通氣。
尹灼覺得有道理,那這樣他還在這廢什麽話。
直接找個機會跟皇阿瑪說了不就行了嗎?
胤祯瞅了他一眼,覺得不行得讓六哥繼續說,剛剛他轉移了注意力沒有注意到傷口的疼痛感,現在一停下來跟要命了似的。
火辣辣的疼,他感覺鄭太醫給他切的傷口比六哥的大。
六哥的就一個小點點。
胤祯撅起了嘴,然後哼唧着道:“六哥,你知道的好多啊,那酒精能喝嗎?”
【!!這啥孩子怎麽什麽都想喝?!】
尹灼嚴肅的道:“不行,喝不得,濃度太高會死人的。”
胤祯好奇的道:“為什麽?”
尹灼又給他巴拉巴拉解釋了一下什麽叫做氧化,兩名太醫都聽呆了。
尹灼講的口幹舌燥的。
【好家夥,我原本是打算發揚生物學知識的,結果現在開始講起了化學的氧化還原。】
胤祯更加的好奇了。
氧化他大致理解了,但氧化還原又是什麽?
胤祯突然又重新認識了一下六哥,原本以為他只知道幾個兄弟的結局,現在看看六哥在未來學的東西可真多大。
他也想去未來看看。
不知道是什麽樣的。
六哥講的話都讓人聽不懂,但感覺很深奧的樣子。
雖然六哥不會被論語古詩,但胤祯覺得六哥是最厲害的。
比張英張大人還博學。
尹灼知道了肯定要冷笑,他何德何能跟張大學士比啊,他只是上了十幾年的學罷了。
【等等,玻璃要盡快研究了,洋人是不是還靠着這個賺走了很多白銀?】
尹灼又嚴肅了起來。
他在左手點的花,所以現在右手還能寫字,他把玻璃的制作方法寫在了紙上,然後讓鄭太醫給康熙。
上次他讓康老爺子讓人去研究精油這些,現在都沒有給回信,肯定是設備達不到啊。
這老頭子也不過來問問他,他正愁着如何施展才華呢。
沒錯,尹灼驕傲了。
他看到了十四仰慕他的眼神,還有鄭太醫和其他人雙眼亮晶晶的看着他的樣子。
讓尹灼生出了一股自信。
別管能不能成他堅信只要他給出一個方向,其他的人就能少走幾十年的彎路。
胤祯都差點給六哥鼓掌了,說的太好了。
他差點都要感動了。
六哥怎麽那麽好呢。
好可愛。
聽着六哥心聲的十四覺得這次賺了。
得虧他勇敢,敢跟六哥過來接種牛痘啊,不然不就錯過這些知識了嗎?
之後,尹灼又帶着十四開始研究起了凹凸鏡。
這個年代已經有眼鏡和望遠鏡了,但很稀少。
就像他之前說的那樣,透明的玻璃難尋。
有些還是從洋人那邊得來的。
而十四心中一直有個疑惑,于是,他偷偷的沾了一點六哥胳膊上的血放到了杯子裏。
尹灼第一眼就發現了,他震驚的道:“你不會不是皇阿瑪的孩子吧?”
【這臭小子不會是想滴血認親吧?】
胤祯面上一慌,但聽到六哥的話之後又是滿頭黑線,然後咬牙道:“我當然是!”
六哥這話要讓別人聽了,他們腦袋都不保。
皇阿瑪是允許有人給自己戴綠帽子的人嗎?
而且這後宮嚴的一個蒼蠅都飛不進來。
尹灼不解:“所以,你懷疑我不是你哥?”
Yin Zhuo has already started to roll up his sleeves: "Don't you think I can't touch you just because I have a fever?"
[No wonder some people say that you should spank your younger brother as early as possible, it’s too late! ]
Yinzhen jumped up and down: "No, no, I just want to experiment and see if blood test is true?"
He was curious. Since Sixth Brother had told him such strange knowledge, he also wanted to explore it.
It's pretty boring anyway.
Yin Zhuo's eyelids felt heavy, and he slumped down on the bed, saying to him, "It's fake. If it were real, your blood would melt with that of a dog."
[Oh, being uneducated is terrible. I feel so helpless. How can I explain ABO blood type to this illiterate brother?]
Yin Zhuo was so tired just thinking about it.
He now realizes the hardships of being a teacher.
It's really not easy for teachers. How did they teach them in the beginning?
Yin Zhuo couldn't bear to watch Fourteen's stupid look.
He sighed and said, "Forget it. I'm going to tell you something you don't understand. Don't ask me how I know it. Your sixth brother is smart."
Yinzhen's eyes lit up; this was exactly what he wanted.
What Sixth Brother said was so interesting.
So Yin Zhuo, while holding on to his sick body, told him a story about blood transfusion, and then patiently guided him.
Don’t worry that Fourteen didn’t understand, but Yin Zhuo tried his best.
After hearing the story, Fourteen was a little scared.
"So, can people really donate blood to each other? Then Sixth Brother, your pale face before was also due to lack of blood. Then can you drink my and Fourth Brother's blood?"
Yinzhen didn't understand the relationship between blood transfusion and drinking blood.
Yin Zhuo: …
"No, who said I want to drink blood? I'll have to poop if I drink it. And I'll die if I don't drink your blood."
[Close relatives cannot receive blood transfusions, as this may cause hemolytic disease.]
Yin Zhuo suddenly thought of a CP video that was very popular before.
[Should I tell Fourteen that if your child is born to you and he gets sick and needs a blood transfusion, anyone else can receive the blood transfusion except Eighth.]
Yinzhen was confused. What did his child’s illness have to do with the myna?
Sixth brother is weird for no apparent reason.
Yinzhen became even more dizzy.
Yin Zhuo almost died of laughter at the wicked scene he imagined in his mind, and then his joy turned into sorrow, and he squeezed a pimple on his arm and popped it.
He immediately started howling, "Help! I'm going to have pockmarks like my father!"
Doctor Zheng rushed in and was shocked by the mess on the table.
What did Fourteenth Prince do? Why is there blood in the cup?
And why does Sixth Prince have so many acne?
Fourteenth was also shocked. Sixth brother had five or six pimples on his arms without him noticing.
His expression changed: "Sixth brother will be fine!"
Fourteen looked down at his arm, and apart from the redness and swelling, there was nothing wrong with it.
And Sixth Brother's face was already flushed.
He started to have a fever.
Doctor Zheng looked solemn.
Yin Zhuo was so happy that he turned into sadness. It is true that one should not do anything immoral!
[I'm sorry to Fourteen, sorry to Eighth, sorry to my brain, my brain is dirty! ]
He no longer had random thoughts.
Looking into Fourteen's innocent eyes, he felt like a bad guy.
Yin Zhuo burned for a whole day, filled with sin, and during this time the crown prince also came in.
He was really worried about the two of them.
As a result, I saw two extremes.
The fourteenth one was fine, but the sixth one had a red fever and his arms were covered with pimples.
Yin Zhuo felt like he had become a toad, so ugly.
"Will I end up like my father, a pockmarked man?"
[Wuwuwu, you should know that people nowadays call Kangxi another name, Mabao... because he had pockmarks on his face when he had smallpox, but I think this Mabao also refers to the second brother, after all, he is the treasure of the emperor's father. ]
Yinreng blushed. He was really impressed by this little six.
How could he still have such crazy thoughts when he was so sick? It's all thanks to the Emperor's father not being around, otherwise...
Otherwise, it’s nothing, the emperor won’t do anything to Xiaoliu. Thinking of this, Yinreng felt a little jealous.
From now on, Mabao is Xiaoliu.
He is the emperor's treasure.
Kangxi, who was in his study, could no longer sit still.
He sneezed, which only hardened his resolve.
If he sneezes twice, it might mean he has a cold, but if he sneezes once, it definitely means Xiaoliu misses him!
