Chapter 329: Taking Advantage of the Situation
Although I have been sleeping in the same room with Yiren these days, this is the first time we have slept in the same bed.
Li Nuo turned his head and took a look. She saw that her eyes were closed and her hands were tightly grasping the quilt.
This reminded him of the first time he and the beauty shared bed.
It took them a long time to go from sleeping in separate beds to sleeping in the same bed, from using two quilts to using one quilt, and from wearing clothes to not wearing clothes.
This time, although the progress is still slow, it is always moving in the expected direction.
Li Nuo slowly closed his eyes.
After a while, Song Yiren's eyes slowly opened.
She glanced at her side with the corner of her eye, and a charming smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
early morning.
When Li Nuo woke up, only a faint fragrance was left around him.
Yiren's quilt was folded neatly, and the sound of her practicing martial arts could be heard outside.
In fact, Li Nuo didn't get up too late, but Yiren got up earlier. As a high-level warrior, she is full of energy. She only needs a short sleep every day to restore all her energy.
After washing up, Li Nuo walked into the yard.
He pretended not to know that she had secretly kissed him in the morning. It wasn't the first time anyway.
After a while, Zhao Zhiyi came in from outside and asked the servants of the princess's mansion to bring breakfast.
When the three of them were dining in the pavilion in the courtyard, Li Nuo looked at Zhao Zhiyi and said, "In the next few months, I will inevitably cause trouble for Your Highness."
Zhao Zhiyi smiled slightly and said, "Don't say that. Lord Li has helped us so much. These are nothing. If you and Miss Song need anything else, just ask..."
Li Nuo said: "Thank you, Your Highness. There is nothing you need for the time being."
Song Yiren glanced at Li Nuo secretly. He didn't say he needed a bed. Doesn't that mean they have to sleep in the same bed tonight?
I don't know if he forgot, and she didn't remind him.
After breakfast, Yiren continued to practice.
Li Nuo heard from the Sixth Princess that after they started planning to build a medical school, the other three princes also followed suit and prepared to build their own medical schools.
These princes are quite interesting. As long as one of them accomplishes something, the others will definitely follow suit.
Li Nuo smiled slightly and said, "This is a good thing. No matter what, the people will benefit from it."
Zhao Zhiyi nodded and said, "I think so too."
Li Nuo had to admit that the emperor of Zhao who first established this system was truly wise.
In other countries, all kinds of means are used in the fight for succession, and no one is afraid of using anything to get to the top.
The court was in chaos and the people suffered greatly.
In Zhao State, the more intense the fight for the throne was, the more the people benefited.
Even if the benefit is only short-term, it is better than living in dire straits forever.
Li Nuo took paper and pen from the study, intending to continue writing the medical manual in the pavilion. When he saw the Sixth Princess preparing to grind ink, he subconsciously said, "I'll do it myself..."
Zhao Zhiyi was grinding ink by himself and said, "I don't have the profound knowledge of Lord Li, nor do I have the connections of Doctor Sun. I can only help you with these small things..."
Since she said so, Li Nuo could only let her continue.
While grinding ink, Zhao Zhiyi asked, "Master Li, are we friends?"
Li Nuo nodded and said, "Of course."
At the beginning, the two could only be considered as partners.
Li Nuo helped her with things, and she promised to help him practice in the future.
However, after spending such a long time together, Li Nuo admired this princess who was as capable as any man. The relationship between the two became much closer than at the beginning, and it was not an exaggeration to call them friends.
Zhao Zhiyi said, "Since we are friends, Lord Li, can you please not be so polite to me in the future and stop calling me Your Highness. You can call me Zhiyi like your brother does."
Hearing this, Li Nuo nodded and said, "I understand."
Then he added: "You don't have to call me Lord Li anymore, call me..."
He suddenly realized that when it comes to a girl's name, you can omit the surname once you're familiar with her.
For example, beauty, sweetheart, peace, understanding and so on, but it always feels weird when men omit them like this.
He waved his hand and said, "Anyway, just don't call me Lord Li. There's no need to call each other by name among friends..."
The two reached an agreement on this matter.
Li Nuo edited the manual for a while, and Doctor Sun came to the princess's mansion.
He raised another 20,000 taels of silver and recruited two gentlemen to the medical school.
These doctors not only donated money and manpower, but also contributed many unique prescriptions.
Each of them is good at different treatment areas. Some are good at pediatrics, some are good at gynecology, some are good at internal medicine, and some are good at surgery. For example, Dr. Sun has his own unique secret recipe for infertility.
It must be said that although they may not have been called benevolent doctors before, this time, no matter what their original intentions were, in fact they have made great contributions to the development of medicine and the welfare of the people.
It's time to give them a little sweetness.
Letting them get some benefits first can also tie them more firmly to this boat.
Doctor Sun handed the banknote to Zhao Zhiyi and said to Li Nuo, "I have some rich friends, but they don't live in the capital. I plan to look for them again..."
Li Nuo said: "There is no rush for this matter. I have a more important matter to give to Doctor Sun."
After a moment, after listening to Li Nuo's words, Doctor Sun asked in astonishment: "Preventing smallpox?"
He thought he had heard wrongly.
Any doctor would tremble when hearing the word "smallpox".
This is one of the most horrific plagues, and there is no effective treatment so far. Not only is it contagious very quickly and has a very high mortality rate, but the cause of death is also extremely miserable.
Once infected with smallpox, not to mention ordinary people, even low-level doctors may not survive.
If smallpox could be prevented, there wouldn't be so many deaths from it in the history of various countries.
Although high-level doctors were not afraid of smallpox, they could not save too many people.
Treating a smallpox patient can completely drain the inner energy of a fourth-level physician, and it will take a long time to recover.
Therefore, whenever smallpox broke out in a certain place, they could only choose to treat the dignitaries and watch ordinary people die in large numbers.
Even if it was just preventing smallpox rather than developing an antidote for it, it would still be an incredible achievement.
This kind of thing that will benefit future generations, as long as it has something to do with me...
Just thinking about it made him tremble with excitement.
If anyone else told him that there was a way to eradicate smallpox, he would not believe it.
But he didn't doubt a word of what Doctor Li said.
Li Nuo nodded and said, "It is to prevent smallpox. If this can be done, smallpox may be completely eradicated in due time, and no one in the continent will die of smallpox anymore..."
When Li Nuo was compiling a medical manual, he noticed the disease of smallpox.
Before he came to this world, smallpox in another world had been completely eradicated. Li Nuo had learned about the process of eradicating smallpox in history books, which is also a classic plot in various historical time-travel novels.
He had read quite a few novels when he was in school, which deepened his understanding in this area.
But he really has no idea how to do it specifically, and what is written in those novels may not stand up to scrutiny.
I believe these doctors have their own methods.
He gave Doctor Sun some inspiration, and Doctor Sun's old face turned red with excitement, and he couldn't wait to run out of the mansion.
When Li Nuo was about to continue writing the manual, he found that Zhao Zhiyi was staring at him in a daze.
He looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Zhiyi came back to his senses and said, "I thought Lord Li was only proficient in the Six Arts, but I didn't expect Lord Li to be omniscient and omnipotent..."
He was proficient in all six arts, could catch thieves, judge cases, reform martial arts techniques, and cure the plague. It seemed that there was really nothing he didn't understand.
He alone is worth all the counselors in the houses of the other royal brothers.
No wonder Master Gongsun said that as long as he was invited, the throne would not be lost.
Li Nuo said modestly: "I don't know everything either. I just read a lot of books and stand on the shoulders of my predecessors..."
To be precise, he is standing on the shoulders of future generations.
This knowledge has always been stored in his mind. He doesn't think about it at ordinary times, but it will naturally come to mind when he needs it.
Inside the courtyard.
Yiren was practicing swordplay attentively, Li Nuo was also writing a manual seriously, Zhao Zhiyi was sitting opposite him, his eyes always on him, but his thoughts were drifting to who knows where...
At this time, in Huichun Hall, Doctor Sun was flipping through a medical book, his hands shaking with excitement.
Smallpox, that's smallpox, one of the most serious plagues.
If smallpox can be completely eradicated across the continent, the fifth realm will be nothing, even the sixth realm will have hope...
At that time, it was the master's turn to call him master.
People who have had smallpox and survived will never get smallpox again in their lifetime.
This is common knowledge among doctors, but no one has figured out the reason behind it yet.
Doctor Li said that this is because people who have had smallpox have a substance in their bodies that resists smallpox.
If people who have never had smallpox can produce this substance in their bodies, they will not be infected with smallpox again.
He knew very well that Dr. Li could do this by himself.
That way he can take all the credit.
But he gave this opportunity to himself.
All my hard work these days has really not been in vain...
He didn't plan to do this big thing alone.
He believed that as long as he continued to follow Doctor Li, such good things would happen again in the future. Since those old guys had helped him so much this time, he must guide them so that they could make money together and improve their skills together.
A moment later, he arrived at the Jindan Hall.
On the third floor of Jindan Hall, Doctor Jiang looked at him and said, "I really don't have any money to donate. You can't force me to sell the clinic, right?"
Doctor Sun glanced at him and said, "What do you think of me? I'm not here to ask you to donate money, but to find you for good things..."
Doctor Jiang looked at him doubtfully. The two had known each other for decades. Even if Mr. Sun had something good to offer him, he would inevitably have to pay a huge price. He just didn't know what the price would be this time.
Doctor Sun said: "Doctor Li discovered a way to prevent smallpox and gave this matter to me to handle. I specially asked you to come with me. Don't say that I didn't think of you when I had good things to do..."
Doctor Jiang was startled when he heard this, and blurted out, "Tianhua, are you kidding me?"
If smallpox could be prevented, why did it kill so many people in the past?
Doctor Sun was too lazy to explain to him and said, "Believe it or not, forget it. I don't have time to argue with you. I have to go to Qianjin Hall to find Lao Zhang..."
His nonchalant attitude made Doctor Jiang feel uneasy. When he saw him walking down the stairs, he immediately chased after him and said, "Wait for me..."
…
Princess Palace.
Li Nuo finished writing another chapter of the manual. However, after writing these chapters, his cultivation level did not improve as much as when he first wrote the title of the book.
With the medical books of the past as reference, Li Nuo did not find this strange.
All things are difficult at the beginning. When he first decided to do this, he made a pioneering contribution.
The impact of this incident is lasting. By the time this book is officially compiled, there should be another surge in cultivation.
Next, as the influence of this book continues to expand, even if he does nothing, his cultivation will continue to grow.
In the past two days, Dr. Sun has been leading a group of doctors to study cowpox, and they should be close to developing a smallpox vaccine.
Li Nuo put down his pen, stretched, and prepared to practice martial arts to stretch his body.
Compared to other practices, martial arts practice is too slow. Li Nuo encountered a bottleneck a long time ago, but until now, he has not developed internal energy.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that he is too busy on weekdays and does not have much time to practice martial arts.
Every bit of growth in martial arts skills requires real hard training.
If he had Yiren's time and effort, he would have broken through long ago.
Li Nuo had just practiced for a while when a servant from the princess's mansion walked into the courtyard and told Li Nuo that someone was looking for him.
Li Nuo walked out of the courtyard and met the person who was looking for him in the gatehouse of the princess's mansion.
There were three people coming, none of whom he had seen before.
A middle-aged couple, with cultivation at the peak of the fourth realm.
There was also an old woman, whose aura was obscure and hidden, and she must be a master without a doubt.
The old woman looked at Li Nuo and asked politely, "But is Li Nuo Doctor Li?"
Li Nuo nodded and said, "It's me, you are..."
The old woman clasped her fists to him and said, "Hello, Doctor Li. I am the leader of the Yunxia Sect. I am coming to you with great honor because I have something to ask of you..."
After a moment, Li Nuo was slightly stunned and asked, "You want me to help you change your mindset?"
The old woman nodded and said, "Yes, although the cultivation speed of our Yunxia Sect's mental method is extremely fast, it is difficult for female disciples who practice this method to have children. I heard that Doctor Li can improve the martial arts method, so I would like to ask for your help. You can offer any price for the consultation fee..."
Needless to say, it must have been the couple from the Tianjian Sect who told them.
This was not a difficult task for him. Li Nuo extended his hand to the others and said, "Let's go inside and talk in detail."
Not long after, in the small pavilion in the courtyard, Li Nuo withdrew his fingers from the middle-aged woman's wrist.
The old woman couldn't wait to ask, "How is it?"
This woman did have a cold body, but her condition was much better than that of the beauty and the female master last time.
Li Nuo had just seen their martial arts techniques.
He nodded and said, "It's not a big problem. It will only take half a day."
The three of them were all delighted. The old woman clasped her fists and said, "Then I'll leave it to Doctor Li. As for the consultation fee..."
Li Nuo waved his hand and said, "It's just a small favor. You can pay the consultation fee as you see fit. If possible, please do me a favor..."
The medical school has sufficient funds and is not short of money for the time being.
But Yiren is in great need of a sparring partner.
Although Li Nuo also wanted to help her, his martial arts skills were too weak to put enough pressure on her.
These martial arts masters from the State of Zhao are undoubtedly good sparring partners.
The three of them readily agreed to Li Nuo's request.
In addition, they insisted on giving Li Nuo five thousand taels of silver as a reward.
Improving martial arts techniques is undoubtedly a huge matter for a sect.
These five thousand taels are probably the most worthwhile five thousand taels they have ever spent.
The three people from the Yunxia Sect stayed in the capital of Zhao State for a few days.
It was not until Yiren completely mastered the Yunxia Sect's swordsmanship and figured out a way to crack it that they happily left with the improved technique.
And just in these few days, people from two other sects came to the door with the same purpose as the people from Yunxia Sect.
They all came to Li Nuo to ask him to improve his skills.
It was at this time that Li Nuo learned that he had become famous in the martial arts world of Zhao State.
After the master couple from the Tianjian Sect returned, they handed over Li Nuo's improved martial arts to the sect's sixth-level seniors and obtained feasible demonstrations from them.
The Tianjian Sect has a semi-saint of the sixth realm and is the leader of the Zhao martial arts world, similar to the status of the Sanqing Sect in the Daxia martial arts world.
It just so happened that during this period of time, strong men from various martial arts sects in the Zhao State were exchanging martial arts in the Tianjian Sect.
This incident spread throughout the Zhao State martial arts world in a short period of time.
All the sects knew that there was someone in the capital who could improve the martial arts techniques.
There are many things in this world that cannot be achieved at the same time. The emperors of various countries who are blessed with national fortune have the strength to sweep across the sixth realm of each family, but their lifespan is pitifully short. The Yin-Yang family can see through the secrets of heaven and deprive others of their lifespan at will, but they are also unable to resist the erosion of time.
As far as martial arts techniques are concerned, those top-level techniques that can be practiced extremely quickly often have huge side effects, so few people practice them.
If the side effects can be eliminated, even if the speed of practice is slightly reduced, it is not unacceptable.
After leaving the Tianjian Sect, they immediately headed towards the capital of Zhao State.
Li Nuo has already learned that these three are not all, and more martial arts sects are on the way.
It would be a waste if you don’t take advantage of this wave of wool.
Of course, it is more enjoyable to use the code than to practice hard on your own.
Upon hearing the news, Li Nuo immediately found the Sixth Princess.
Zhao Zhiyi looked at Li Nuo in astonishment and asked, "Health management regulations?"
Li Nuo nodded and said, "Zhiyi, when you went to Daxia last time, did you find that the streets of Daxia were exceptionally clean?"
Zhao Zhiyi nodded. Of course she had noticed it. The Zhao delegation had specifically discussed this matter at that time.
After she returned to China, she wanted to follow suit.
But then he thought, the people definitely don't want to be controlled, and might think that the law is too harsh, which would be detrimental to the emperor's reputation and prestige among the people, so he never took action.
Li Nuo said to her, "You don't have to worry about this at all. At the beginning, the people will definitely feel that the government is interfering too much, but within half a month, they will be able to feel the improvement of their living environment. After a few months, when they are used to it, they will even take the initiative to maintain it. Although this is a small political achievement, it is very intuitive and the effect is fast..."
Zhao Zhiyi had absolute trust in Li Nuo. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll let my brother do it."
Li Nuo added: "Also, in the next few days, many people from martial arts sects will come to the capital. We might as well hold a martial arts conference for them in the name of the court. The court can use this opportunity to strengthen its ties with the martial arts world. It would be best if we could reach a cooperation with them and make these martial arts sects an important force in maintaining local stability..."
Zhao Zhiyi asked, "Like what you did in Daxia?"
Li Nuo nodded and said, "You just need to get in touch with the court, provide a venue for the conference and arrange for the reception and accommodation. Leave the rest to me. I have experience in this kind of thing and I guarantee that it will be done beautifully..."
