Chapter 112 Fall
Yuying was shocked when she heard the news about cowpox in Qingxi Book House. She didn't expect that the cowpox she had been talking about that day would actually appear. Could it be that there was another person who had traveled through time beside Kangxi?
Yuying tried to persuade Kangxi indirectly and begged him to let her meet the man who discovered cowpox.
Kangxi felt guilty and had to tell countless lies to cover up his lie. He didn't dare to let Yuying know that he could hear her inner voice, so he pushed the discovery of cowpox onto someone else, but he didn't expect Yuying to insist on meeting this person and even pester him for it.
Kangxi was so annoyed that he had to decline and say he would do it another day.
He then called Ye Tianshi, who was in charge of the cowpox vaccination that day, to his side, and told him that Yuying wanted to meet him, and specifically asked Ye Tianshi to insist that he was the one who discovered the cowpox.
Kangxi's words left Ye Tianshi completely confused. He had no idea what the emperor and his concubine were up to, but he dared not disobey the emperor's order and nodded in agreement.
…
Kangxi had been putting off the meeting with the discoverer of cowpox for several days, but there was still no progress. Yuying could not help but urge Kangxi.
"Your Majesty, do you still remember what you promised me? You wouldn't have forgotten it, right?" Yuying's eyes became dangerous, as if she would make a scene in front of Kangxi if he said he had forgotten.
"Ahem..." Kangxi pretended to cough, "Of course I haven't forgotten. I was planning to take Aying to see him today."
"Really?" Yuying's tone was full of doubt.
So Kangxi took Yuying to the Nine Classics and Three Affairs Hall, where Ye Tianshi was already waiting.
Seeing Kangxi coming over with Yuying, he quickly knelt down and greeted: "Your humble servant greets the emperor and the queen."
"Get up." Kangxi signaled him to get up, but Ye Tianshi still kept his head down, not daring to look at the emperor and his concubine.
Yuying looked curiously at the young man in official uniform in front of her. Could this be her fellow villager?
"This is the person you want to see. Ask whatever you want to ask, Ying."
After saying this, Kangxi took a few steps back and signaled Yuying to do as she pleased.
Yuying took a few steps forward and stood in front of Ye Tianshi. "Are you the one who discovered cowpox? What's your name?"
"Your Majesty, it's me, your humble servant Ye Tianshi, paying my respects to Your Majesty." Ye Tianshi took a few steps back, with an attitude of self-discipline and courtesy.
Seeing this, Yuying did not move forward and just stood there, "Well, Ye Tianshi, let me ask you a few questions."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
A hint of anticipation ignited in Yuying's heart, and she was about to recite the slogan.
"Palace Jade Liquor!"
Ye Tianshi stood there at a loss.
"The odd number changes but the even number does not change!"
Ye Tianshi still pursed his lips and said nothing.
"What about hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium and boron?"
The question mark on Ye Tianshi's head was about to become concrete. He bent over and clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, please forgive my humble subject for his lack of talent and knowledge."
Well, since the slogan didn’t match, it seemed that this person was not her fellow villager.
Yuying's originally high spirits were gone. "It doesn't matter. Then you tell me... tell me," Yuying urgently withdrew an "I", "Tell me how you discovered cowpox."
Ye Tianshi glanced at Kangxi secretly and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the emperor told him how to answer this question.
Ye Tianshi told Yuying the speech he had prepared earlier.
After hearing this, Yuying completely gave up.
Perhaps this is how cowpox was discovered by accident.
Yuying returned to Kangxi and told him that she had finished her questioning and could let Ye Tianshi go.
After Ye Tianshi left, Yuying looked unhappy.
"Why is Ah Ying unhappy?" Kangxi asked knowingly, "Is it because you didn't get the answer you wanted just now?"
"But then again, I don't know what Ah Ying just said. Ah Ying, can you explain it to me?"
Well, now it's Yuying's turn to feel guilty. She doesn't have time to be emo anymore. She racks her brains to think of how to fool Kangxi so that he won't continue asking questions.
Before she could think it through, Kangxi took the initiative to change the subject.
Yuying breathed a sigh of relief.
Kangxi just thought it was funny. He also wanted Yuying to divert her attention, but he didn't expect Yuying to be so scared.
The cowpox issue came to an end, and Yuying completely gave up the idea of looking for her fellow villagers.
After a rain, the continuous heat was extinguished and the weather turned cooler. When the first leaf in Changchun Garden turned yellow and fell from the branch to the ground, autumn had arrived in the blink of an eye.
Yuying woke up early in the morning and sat in front of the window, looking out with her chin in her hand. An autumn wind blew over, blowing down leaves all over the ground, and even sent one of them to Yuying. Yuying reached out and took it and put it aside.
"My queen, it's a bleak autumn day, you should put on some clothes." Qingtao's voice sounded from behind.
As a result, her limbs, which had been chilled by the wind, were wrapped in warmth.
Yuying turned around and said, "Thank you Qingtao."
Kangxi has been busy with the autumn harvest these days and has no time to take care of Yuying.
Early in the morning, Kangxi brought the eldest prince and the crown prince, and even the younger third and fourth princes, to the imperial farm.
After being beaten with a stick by Kangxi that day, Yinzhi had recovered under the careful care of the First Concubine, but he was still worried about Huipin in the palace. He couldn't even muster the energy to compete with Yinreng and kept thinking about pleading for Huipin.
Kangxi now really disliked Huipin. In the past, he always thought that she had raised his eldest son for him, so he was very tolerant of her and even made her the first of the four concubines.
But now Kangxi didn't even want to hear Huipin's name, so whenever Yinzhi mentioned her, Kangxi's face turned dark.
Kangxi did not want Yinzhi to know what Huifei had done, and did not want Yinzhi to know that he had a vicious mother, so he had to keep the reason why he punished Huifei deep in his heart and did not tell Yinzhi.
But precisely because of this, Yinzhi felt that there was still room for maneuver in Kangxi's punishment of Huipin, and every time he got angry, Kangxi wanted to give him another beating.
Kangxi was unhappy and made things difficult for his sons. There were farmers who were specifically assigned to harvest the rice, but Kangxi insisted that his sons personally do the harvesting.
The rice planted in the Royal Farm is the last crop of the year, and it is planted using the seedling raising method proposed by Yuying. This method is indeed effective, and the harvest has increased by nearly half compared with previous years.
The harvest increased and fewer people starved to death. Isn't Kangxi happy?
Kangxi was so happy that he wanted to reward Yuying, so a lot of rewards were sent to Yuying.
Everyone in the harem was numb when they saw this.
In the past, when others were favored, they could at least have a sip of soup. But now the emperor could only see Concubine Jin, let alone a sip of soup. Usually, they could not even see the emperor.
Concubine Jin is really lucky.
