I just want to live a happy life

Chapter 276: Startling Steps - 4 Fu Jin 22

A few days later, Yinzhen, Yinxiang and Yinzhen went out of town to handle some matters.

They all attended court, which was a very common occurrence.

But this time was a little different from every previous time. After these three people returned from other places, they immediately went to the palace to meet the emperor after returning to the capital.

The emperor was about to ask them how they were handling the matter, so he let them into the Qianqing Palace.

Yinzhen first reported on his duties before talking about the discoveries the three of them had made outside.

Yinzhen said: "Father, I have something important to report."

"Oh?" It seems that this matter is very important, otherwise Yinzhen would not have such a serious and earnest expression.

Yinzhen replied, "Father, I was passing by a place on the road when I overheard an old farmer tell me a story. He said that the farm where he worked had cows, and many people had contracted cowpox because of the cows. Those who had cowpox recovered quickly, but what surprised me was that these people did not get smallpox either."

"So after I, Thirteenth Brother, and Fourteenth Brother finished our work, we investigated the matter and found that people who were infected with cowpox would not get smallpox again, and that people who were infected with cowpox basically survived and were not in danger of death."

The emperor stood up from his seat and asked: "Are you telling the truth?"

Yinzhen: "I dare not speak nonsense."

The emperor laughed and said, "Good, very good. If this is true, you have done something that will benefit future generations."

Yinzhen was terrified: "I dare not. This matter is not entirely due to me. My thirteenth and fourteenth brothers also did a lot."

The emperor smiled and said, "Well, I am very pleased that you brothers are in harmony and friendship. I will have someone investigate this matter, and you will definitely benefit from it."

The three brothers all knelt on the ground: "Thank you, Father Huang."

After these sons left, the emperor did not delay at all and immediately ordered someone to investigate the matter. A month later, it was confirmed that people infected with cowpox could effectively prevent smallpox. The emperor was very happy and also rewarded Yinzhen, Yinxiang and Yinzhi who discovered this.

Yinzhen was already a prince, and the next rank above him was an iron-hat prince. The emperor would not confer the title of an iron-hat prince casually. After thinking about it, the emperor decided to make Yinzhen's princely title half a level higher, which means that his title was between an iron-hat prince and a prince. Not to mention all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry. Since the bondservant families were raided, the national treasury was very rich, and there were a lot of these, so the emperor was not stingy in this regard.

As for the Thirteenth Yinxiang and the Fourteenth Yinzhen, they were originally Beile and now have become Princes.

This matter was announced during the morning court. When the reward was announced, Yinsi was very dissatisfied, not to mention Yinzhen. Yinzhen's status was much higher than his, and he didn't know how much he had to do to catch up.

And Thirteen and Fourteen were younger than him. He had done some things with great difficulty, and the Emperor conferred him the title of a prince, but Thirteen and Fourteen became equals to him so easily.

To be honest, he was quite panicked.

Now he has the Ninth and Tenth Brothers by his side. The Ninth Brother still treats him the same as before and works wholeheartedly for him, but the Tenth Brother has changed. Since he married his wife, he has been more perfunctory towards him, and the Mongolian forces behind his wife cannot be used by him.

Also, Fu Jin has always been angry with him, and the Prince An Mansion behind her is not close to him.

The power on his side is really weak, and as for the Fourth Prince Yinzhen, not to mention the Thirteenth and Fourteenth, just talk about the Fourth Prince Yinzhen, his wife's family fully supports him, and the men of the Ulanara family are very capable. In just a few years, they have been promoted. And Nian Gengyao is also a talent.

Yinsi had a premonition that the fourth prince would be his strong rival for the throne in the future, so it seemed he had to make some preparations.

Of course, he was not the only one who was jealous. The other princes also felt uncomfortable, but the emperor was still in front of them, and they could not do anything to make him angry.

So no matter how jealous or uncomfortable she was in her heart, she had to put on a smile and congratulate Yinzhen and the other two.

Yinsi was very panicked. After finishing his shift, he returned to the mansion and began to discuss solutions with his staff and the ninth and tenth brothers.

At this time, Ruoxi in the backyard was also a little at a loss. She couldn't understand how the Fourth Prince Yinzhen discovered cowpox. Could it be that he also traveled through time to this era like her?

When she thought of this, she shook her head subconsciously. Absolutely not. It must be her alone. How could there be someone else besides her?

And he doesn't look like him. She has seen Yinzhen, and his every move doesn't have any modern trace. Also, she heard that Yinzhen has a lot of people in his backyard.

If he was really a modern man, how could he have so many women? Modern people are monogamous. Wouldn't he want to be with one person for the rest of his life?

Thinking of this reason, she also felt it was ridiculous. Modern men are likely to cheat. How could he restrain himself if he came into this world?

But she subconsciously deceived herself, thinking that what she thought was correct, that the Fourth Prince Yinzhen's discovery of cowpox was a coincidence, or that it might be because of her arrival, the butterfly effect, that led to this situation.

In short, in Ruoxi's heart, she is the only special person, and there can't be a second one.

If she was Yinzhen's person, she would be happy to see this situation, but it was not the case. She was the Eighth Prince's person, and if she wanted to help, it would be the Eighth Prince.

Fortunately, she knew history and everyone around Yinzhen. If she told Yinsi, he would probably be on guard.

So after Yinsi came to her, Ruoxi brought up this matter.

"You should be more careful about Prince Yong, and the people around him, such as Nian Gengyao, Longkodo, Wu Sidao, and Tian Wenjing..."

Yinsi was puzzled: "Why do you say that? How do you know the people around him?"

Ruoxi exclaimed, "Don't worry about how I know this. I'm your concubine, and I can't possibly harm you."

This is true, so Yinsi didn't ask, but he was a thoughtful person. Although Ruoxi didn't say how she knew it, he just put aside his worries temporarily and kept it in mind.

Although he didn't know whether Ruoxi had lied to him, he decided to investigate it in order to be safe. Perhaps he could take the initiative and get rid of some people around Yinzhen.

Yinsi investigated and although it was not too obvious, Ruoxi told him in advance, so he still found some clues. But among the people Ruoxi mentioned, everyone else knew, but who was Wu Sidao?

He asked Ruoxi, and Ruoxi said, "He is Prince Yong's staff member. If I remember correctly, it seems that his legs and feet are not very good. Have you really not investigated it?"

Seeing Yinsi shaking his head, Ruoxi thought, perhaps this aide of Prince Yong has not yet entered Prince Yong's mansion. She is sure that there must be such a person around Prince Yong.
