Chapter 290 Deception
After hearing his answer, Feng Qingsui smiled and said, "I have a very good eye."
There is probably no other man in the world like Ji Changqing who is willing to do his best to support his daughter to ascend to the throne.
Ji Changqing glanced at her sideways: "You just found out?"
Feng Qingsui chuckled: "You should be happy now, but don't regret it later and create a bunch of illegitimate children to compete with Xin'er for power."
"That won't happen." Ji Changqing curled his lips into a smile, "Just wait and see."
After saying that, he left the bedroom and brought over the toiletries.
"You wash up first, I'll go to the kitchen to steam two dishes."
Feng Qingsui nodded and said ok.
After she finished washing up, Ji Changqing's dishes were ready. After she ate and fed the child, she felt sleepy.
Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
When she woke up, she saw her master sitting beside the couch, taking her pulse. She quickly put a pillow under her and half-lay down.
"Master, I saw my sister and the others while I was unconscious," she said impatiently, "They traveled to another world, a world very similar to the dream world you described."
The fifth one was slightly surprised: "Are they in the Flower Country?"
Feng Qingsui nodded: "Yes!"
After that, he told her what he saw and heard on the island.
Diwu Qingqing listened quietly and laughed loudly, "It's the same world I originally lived in, and the timeline is similar."
The world you originally lived in?
Feng Qingsui was stunned: "Master, which world were you originally from?"
"Your sister and I are exactly the opposite. They traveled from Daxi to the Flower Country, while I traveled from the Flower Country to Daxi."
The fifth one replied softly.
I see.
Feng Qingsui suddenly understood.
No wonder the master knows so much advanced technical knowledge.
"Then can you still go back?"
The fifth shook his head gently: "I probably can't go back. Even if I have the chance to go back, I will choose to stay here."
Because her mother died of cancer when she was in middle school, she chose to study medicine. Unexpectedly, her father died in a car accident just after graduating from medical school.
She worked alone in the hospital for several years and took the initiative to apply to join the peacekeeping medical team.
After a year of rescuing sick and wounded soldiers in foreign countries, she was killed in an air raid while on a medical round.
When she woke up, she found herself traveling back in time to the body of a girl from a mountain village in Daxi.
The original person's mother died early, and his father made a living by hunting, but unfortunately he was killed by a tiger.
Because Daxi did not allow female households to be established, after her parents died, she was adopted by her uncle, and the family's houses and fields also belonged to her uncle's family.
Seeing that the original body was beautiful, the uncle wanted to give her to the county magistrate as a concubine so that his son could go to the county school.
The original body did not want to be a concubine, so she fled into the mountains and died after accidentally eating a poisonous fruit.
As she had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place, she continued to stay in the mountains and survived by relying on her medical knowledge and the survival skills she learned in the peacekeeping medical team.
And rescued a seriously injured young man.
The young man was well-dressed and looked like a wealthy man. After being rescued, he learned of her experience and was filled with indignation. He promised to help her with her household registration.
She cured the young man and followed him out of the mountains and headed for the county town.
On the way, he met an old farmer leading a cow with pox. She was overjoyed and told the young man that vaccination with cowpox could prevent pox.
The young man bought the cow and had her vaccinated against cowpox.
It was only when she arrived in the county town that she learned the young man's identity - Zhao Qi, the fourth prince of Daxi.
Zhao Qi arranged an identity for her, the adopted daughter of his wet nurse, and asked her to stay and work as a female doctor.
She intended to use this as a transition, and after becoming familiar with the laws, customs and people of Daxi, she would find another way out, so she agreed.
Zhao Qi treated her very attentively. She could see his affection, but she never considered being with him.
In this era where matching social status is important, with her background, she is not even qualified to be Zhao Qi's concubine, let alone his wife.
She didn't want to be a concubine, and even less did she want to share a man with others. No matter how Zhao Qi tried to seduce her, she remained unmoved.
After staying in the capital with Zhao Qi for more than half a year, she decided to leave.
Zhao Qi tried every means to stop her and refused to let her go.
She drugged Zhao Qi and waited for an opportunity to escape. She used a fake household registration she had purchased to leave the capital and went to Jiangzhou.
Jiangzhou is a wealthy city with a large floating population, so it wouldn't be a big deal for her, an outsider, to practice medicine there.
She never expected that just as she settled down, Jiangzhou suffered a once-in-a-century flood, and most of the villages and towns were submerged.
The prince rushed to Jiangzhou to fight the flood and provide disaster relief. He recruited doctors to serve as accompanying medical officers to treat the victims.
She was just a bell doctor and was not among the recruits, but because she could not stand the inappropriate rescue and treatment provided by the medical officers, she volunteered to join.
The prince was not picky about who he employed. After seeing her abilities, he immediately promoted her to be a touring medical officer, in charge of medical officers recruited from the public.
She and other medical officers followed the prince to provide rescue services in various places in Jiangzhou.
She solved all the epidemics encountered during this period.
Unexpectedly, he encountered smallpox in Mo County.
When the first case of smallpox was discovered, she ordered the prince to seal the city gates.
It takes about seven days for the cowpox vaccination to take effect and twenty-one days for complete immunity to be achieved. Unless a cow with smallpox can be found in Mo County, it will be too late to vaccinate against the smallpox.
Despite this, she still told the prince how to prevent smallpox.
After Zhao Qi returned to Beijing, he told her that he had reported to his father the fact that vaccination with cowpox could prevent smallpox. His father had arranged for the imperial physician to conduct a trial, and would implement it once the test results came out.
"If the imperial physician is conducting an experiment, he should have smallpox cows on hand."
She said to the prince.
"Have them preserve the pox pus and send it to Mo County as soon as possible. It should be in time to vaccinate those who are not infected."
The smallpox pus from a successfully vaccinated person can be inoculated into other people, without having to take the pus from the smallpox cow.
Upon hearing this, the prince said, "I have never heard of this."
She was stunned.
It is not known whether the emperor asked the imperial physician to keep it secret or Zhao Qi lied to her.
The prince ordered the people guarding outside Mo County to contact the capital. After verification, it was found that the Imperial Medical Bureau had never conducted vaccination experiments, so he asked people to contact Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi didn't respond.
She finally understood that Zhao Qi had deceived her.
He concealed the fact that cowpox vaccination could prevent smallpox and never reported it to the emperor, and now he has no intention of handing over the cowpox vaccination.
The prince did not say anything, but ordered people to search for smallpox cows in Jiangzhou and surrounding areas, and then do their best to treat the infected people.
She also gave it her all.
But the virus spread too quickly, and the supply of medicinal materials was insufficient, so it could not be contained at all.
Half a month later, even the prince fell ill.
She couldn't save him.
I could only watch him die.
After his death, Zhao Qi brought doctors from the Imperial Hospital and soldiers from the Beijing Camp to rescue him, winning him great fame.
After she realized that the smallpox in Mo County was deliberately spread by Zhao Qi, she felt deeply guilty - if she had not told Zhao Qi how to prevent smallpox and vaccinated him with cowpox, the prince, Jiangzhou Tongpan Ji Peizheng and so many people in Mo County would not have died in vain.
So he fled from Zhao Qi again and traveled around various states to save the wounded and sick.
"I will never be able to repay the people of Daxi for what I owe them in this lifetime."
After telling Feng Qingsui about her experience, she smiled bitterly.
Feng Qingsui hugged her.
"Master, the guilty one is not you, but Zhao Qi. He is also the one who should atone for his sins."
