Chapter 72: The 72nd Day of Wanting to Die
Yinzhen swore to defend his little braid to the death.
But the voice in Sixth Brother's heart broke his defense.
[Alas, do you know how later generations evaluated the hairstyle of the Qing Dynasty? It was called a rat tail, and the first thing the Qing Dynasty did was to shave their heads and break the bad habit of the half-moon head. They believed that this was a restriction imposed by the feudal dynasty. It was because of this that the Republic of China and the modern era came into being.]
So, later generations hate their hairstyle?
Yinzhen started shaving his head at the age of six and didn't think his hairstyle was ugly.
Everyone around him has the same hairstyle, so Sixth Brother is the odd one out without a braid.
The half-moon head was also a symbol of the Han people's submission to the Manchus. Shaving the head represented submission.
Yinzhen thought that his sixth brother's ideas were extremely rebellious, but inexplicably he also felt that they made sense.
After all, history will give the correct answer.
He is now looking at the correct direction of history through Sixth Brother.
Yin Zhuo was still trying to persuade him: "It's really ugly, and the emperor is hypocritical. Why doesn't he allow those foreigners who come to the Qing Dynasty to shave their heads as well?"
[Double-label dogs are the most annoying. ]
Yinzhen: ...
What a heinous crime! What a heinous crime!
He cursed the Emperor again. The Emperor seemed to have been drugged by Sixth Brother. No matter how Sixth Brother cursed him, he didn't get angry at all. It really made people not know what to say.
Yin Zhuo gritted his teeth and then comforted himself.
[It's okay, Fourteen is still young, he doesn't have the concept of beauty and ugliness yet, he will cry when he grows up. Everyone has the right to pursue freedom, why do you want to restrict my pursuit of hairstyle? If I want, I can dye my hair into a rainbow! ]
Yinzhen was stunned. Can hair be dyed into a rainbow?
Sixth brother wants to go up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun. If it really gets contaminated, the emperor will be the first one to fail, and no one will be able to protect him then.
I think a lot.
Yinzhen was even more confused. A real man has the freedom to pursue any hairstyle he wants.
Just keep it clean and well maintained.
But thinking of this, Yinzhen touched his braid. In the past two days, he calculated the time and realized that he hadn't washed his hair for three days.
For a moment, he withdrew his hand in disgust, inexplicably moved.
"Sixth brother, is your hair easy to wash?"
Yinzhen wanted to laugh after he finished speaking.
I forgot that Sixth Brother has no hair, haha. Just wash your face at the same time when washing your hair.
Yin Zhuo noticed that Fourteen was laughing at him, and mercilessly hit him: "You are disrespectful."
He stretched and decided to ignore Fourteen, but Fourteen felt bad about it.
He seems so unfair.
Sixth Brother has been so good to him, but now he can't even meet this request. Besides, Sixth Brother will definitely be sad when he knows that he doesn't have long hair.
He wanted me to accompany him, so he said that.
Looking at the sixth brother's chapped lips, Yinzhen was very considerate and poured him some water, then said to him: "Sixth brother, I am willing to shave my head."
Anyway, he won't be staying here for long.
Well, actually Yinzhen is a bit rebellious in his heart.
Yin Zhuo pinched his little face and said, "It's up to you. By then, we will be the only two bald guys in the Forbidden City."
Yinzhen chuckled.
There's nothing wrong with being bald with Brother Liu.
When this is written in history books, will anyone think that his relationship with his sixth brother was the best?
That's not bad.
Humph, he also wants those people to write fan fiction about him and Sixth Brother.
Since the one between him and mynah brother is called 148, then the one between him and 6th brother should be 146?
Although he didn't know the difference between putting the number in the front and in the back, Yinzhen inexplicably felt that putting the number in the front looked more impressive.
Yin Zhuo had no idea that his dear fourteenth brother had already had such an outrageous and unethical idea in his mind. He was applying medicine to his arm.
As for Fourteenth's hair, let the palace maids cut it for him, he doesn't know how to do it.
Yin Zhuo also took the opportunity to shave off the few hairs that had sprouted from his head.
His head was now smoother, whiter, and appeared smaller.
Yin Zhuo measured his height twice and lay down on the bed uncomfortably again.
He felt that he was not as tall as Yinyou and Yinsi, and he was still the older brother.
It's so sad.
On the third day, Yin Zhuo no longer had a fever, the pimples on his body scabbed over, and he regained some strength.
Yinzhen, who had become a little bald head, was fine and was working hard on his homework.
Sixth brother taught him about Arabic numerals, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
What decimal point is there?
Yinzhen was working on a math problem given to him by his sixth brother. It was so difficult that he kept scratching his head, but now there was no hair left for him to scratch.
Yinzhen wants to cry now. He doesn’t want to do homework. He wants to grow up.
Yin Zhuo's head was buzzing with anger. He had never seen such a stupid student before.
Yinzhen also felt aggrieved, he had not learned this yet. He was also learning numerology, but had never seen these strange symbols.
It's good that he was able to recognize everything today, but his brain can't wrap around when it comes to doing the questions.
Seeing that he was very worried, Yin Zhuo came over and talked to him.
Soon, Doctor Zheng heard the sound of chairs being thrown inside, and he was so scared that he ran inside quickly.
Then I saw the Sixth Prince pointing at the paper on the desk with his finger, his face red with anger: "Don't ask why I did it this way."
Yinzhen also collapsed: "Why do you do this?"
Yin Zhuo: “Ah——”
He is not alive anymore!
[No wonder some people today get so angry with their children that they end up going to the hospital. This is really infuriating.]
Yin Zhuo felt that he couldn't go on like this. His life span was already short, and now he was about to be angered to death by Fourteen.
He took a deep breath, then gently picked up the chair he had kicked and said to him, "Get out, go next door. I don't want to see you now."
Yinzhen pouted.
Sixth brother was too impatient. He didn't ask anything, so why did he die of anger?
snort.
If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. He doesn't believe that he can't do it. He is the fourteenth prince of the Qing Dynasty, the future Batulu, and the general in a dozen years.
As a man who had to lead troops in battle, these small Arabic numerals were no problem for him.
Seeing that his sixth brother had turned his back in anger, Yinzhen also started moving his things to the next room.
When Yin Zhuo heard his noise, he wanted to take action.
Yinzhen seemed to know his next move and ran away first.
He was afraid that Sixth Brother would beat him. Now they were locked in a yard and he couldn't find anyone to help him, so he decided not to challenge Sixth Brother's limits.
Seeing that the Fourteenth Prince had left, Doctor Zheng dared to speak loudly: "Sixth Prince, are you two okay? It's better not to get angry, it's not conducive to recovery."
The two princes were in good condition, so except for the first day when the Sixth Prince had a fever and he was so nervous that he couldn't sleep, Doctor Zheng treated the rest of the time as a holiday.
But he still needs to study the task assigned to him by Sixth Brother.
For example, distillation flasks, serum, blood type and so on.
He was a professional and his mind worked faster than the Fourteenth Prince, but he was still frightened and took a step back.
This is what happens when you can’t learn.
It's so scary.
Yin Zhuo smiled kindly: "Get out."
He felt that if he continued like this, he would really pass out from anger.
Yin Zhuo believed that it was better to be angry with others than to let himself be insulted, so he decided to calm himself down.
Yin Zhuo felt that he was not as good as the third graders in the 14th Company and could not learn a single score.
Wait, Yin Zhuo paused in the action of drinking water. At the age of eight, he should be in the third grade.
Yin Zhuo licked his lips. After being with Fourteen for so long, he subconsciously thought that Fourteen was an adult.
After all, he acts and speaks like a little adult, and he is not as childish as me.
Yin Zhuo sighed. The children in the Qing Palace are all precocious.
After expressing his feelings, Yin Zhuo went back to making the test papers.
He thought the boy had potential.
And he just likes this torturous feeling.
Let Fourteen also experience the pain he had before.
But what Yin Zhuo didn't expect was that while he was recuperating, there was already an uproar inside and outside the palace because of him and Fourteen's vaccination against smallpox.
The Empress Dowager was extremely angry that Xuanye had dared to put Xiaoliu and Shisi in danger.
What about cowpox?
I heard that Xiaoliu had a fever on the first day he entered the palace. The old man was so worried that he even scolded Kangxi.
Kangxi had no choice but to withstand the pressure, appease the Queen Mother, and let Tana stay with him.
He also asked Yinqi to go over and accompany the old man for half a day.
Tana ran back and forth between Yonghe Palace and Ciren Palace.
When Concubine De found out that Xiaoliu had a fever, she almost fainted.
She couldn't believe what would happen if Xiaoliu's little body caught a fever, let alone that it was smallpox.
Something that even the emperor and the prince are afraid of.
The emperor still had traces of smallpox on his face.
Although no one dares to say it, it does exist.
Defei couldn't sleep well in bed. She either dreamed of Xiaoliu calling for his mother with a hot body, or she dreamed of him saying that he had marks on his face and that he was as ugly as Kangxi.
Defei woke up in the middle of the night, thought about Kangxi's face, and immediately closed her eyes in pain.
She couldn't accept Xiaoliu becoming like that.
Kangxi didn't know that he was being rejected.
Now he has released the news that his two brothers had been vaccinated against smallpox.
Those principles and regulations were also posted.
Kangxi found that this method was quite useful, except for some useless people. Those people didn't have the ability to do this job before, and now they had to run around everywhere to pass on the news, and they were all exhausted.
But there are also benefits, income has increased.
That's fine.
The first reaction of the people was surprise.
The emperor actually dared to let his own son be vaccinated against cowpox. This shows how much trust he had in cowpox.
But no matter what others say, I am no longer so averse to smallpox.
Some far-sighted people have already signed up. After all, the vaccination is free now and there are specialists to take care of them.
After that, fees will be charged, and the level of the doctors who give vaccinations will definitely not be as good as it is now.
Not only is it a waste of money, but it also requires an extra person to take care of it.
Gains do not make up for losses.
Some people who have their own children have decided to wait and see, as the cost of vaccination against smallpox is not high.
Ordinary people can also afford it.
Let's wait and see how the two young princes in the palace react.
Soon the news came out that the cowpox was discovered by the Sixth Prince, and then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hired someone to conduct experiments on a farm in the imperial suburbs. It was only announced now that there were no problems.
So, in places that Yin Zhuo didn't know, he was almost praised as a goddess.
Everyone said that the Sixth Prince was very wise and would definitely live to be a hundred years old.
After all, the news that the Sixth Prince was frail and sickly had spread everywhere.
Some people still remembered that the Sixth Prince had passed away, and were shocked when they heard the news that the Sixth Prince had been diagnosed with cowpox.
Is Sixth Prince a fake corpse?
