Chapter 964

Qin Huaidao began to carry out treatment and prevention in Yangzhou, allowing students from medical schools to go to various counties and to save people in those places, while Qin Huaidao was in charge of the central command.

A few days later, Li Shimin, who was in Chang'an City, received a letter from Qin Huaidao and was very happy. The letter was written by Qin Huaidao in Jiangning. He learned that the epidemic in Jiangning was basically over. All the people were vaccinated, and most of the infected people were cured. Li Shimin was very happy and even took it to the morning court to read it, so that the officials knew how much Qin Huaidao had done there.

After Li Chengqian learned the news, he was very happy. At least it can prove that Qin Huaidao is fine now. As long as he is fine, that's fine. Then Qin Huaidao can continue to help him in the future.

"Father, this is a great thing. Boping really solved this matter. Father, if he can solve the problem, Boping's contribution will be highly rewarded!" Li Chengqian stood up excitedly and said to Li Shimin.

"That is a reward. Have you sorted out your previous military merits?" Li Shimin said happily, touching his beard.

"We will be able to hand it over later today!" Li Chengqian replied with bowing.

"Okay, I will reward you all. You said before, Boping may not be able to solve it. Now you have heard it. In addition, there is a letter from the prefect of Jiangning here. The content is the same as Boping's writing. However, it also wrote Boping's contribution. Now the people in Jiangning see the students of medical schools, but they all regard it as Bodhisattvas. The same is true for Boping. They praise our court and say that the court has not given up on them!" Li Shimin said happily to the officials below, and at the same time gave the letter to a eunuch next to him for his recitation.

The eunuch heard this and began to recite it. Of course, he must have performed his merits for Qin Huaidao. After all, Qin Huaidao saved the people of Jiangning Mansion and also saved him.

When the ministers of the aristocratic families heard it, they felt bad. At the beginning, they hoped that Qin Huaidao went to die, but they did not expect that Qin Huaidao not only did not die, but also made him successful and could really cure the disease of smallpox.

"Everyone, what do you want to say?" Li Shimin and Deyi were even more proud of the officials of the aristocratic families below, rather than seeing the bad expressions of the officials of the aristocratic families below, he knew that many people hoped that Qin Huaidao would die. If Qin Huaidao died, the royal family would lose a sharp sword.

"Your Majesty, Duke Hu's contribution must be rewarded. I wonder what your Majesty wants to reward Duke Hu? Is a prince?" At this time, an official from the Cui family stood up and asked Li Shimin.

When other officials from the aristocratic families heard this, they were stunned for a moment, and then immediately said, "Your Majesty, you cannot reward the prince's title. Although there are kings of different surnames in the Tang Dynasty, these are kings, chiefs, and Duke Hu who surrendered before, no matter what, they cannot be named kings of different surnames!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be cautious!" Other officials from the aristocratic families were also panicked. If Qin Huaidao was granted a title of king, it would definitely not be a prince. The prince had no meaning to Qin Huaidao, and it would be better to be a duke. The duke was hereditary, and if he wanted to grant it, it would definitely be a prince.

"Why can't there be a king in a different surname? Boping's contribution to our Tang Dynasty cannot be granted a king. Not to mention anything else, just talking about the treatment of smallpox is enough to be granted a king!" Li Shimin sat there, staring at the officials and asked.

"Your Majesty, that's what he said, but if Duke Hu is so young, he will probably not convince the old ministers who followed His Majesty before. So many old ministers followed His Majesty to fight in the east and west, they only made a Duke, even Qin Huaidao's father, but only a Duke. Of course, Qin Huaidao has made great contributions now, but if he wants to be a king, I believe many Dukes will disagree!" At this moment, Xiao Yu stood up and bowed and said.

"Who doesn't agree? Do you don't agree?" Li Shimin looked at Xiao Yu angrily and asked.

"Yes, I don't agree. I believe that there are still a large number of dukes who disagree. Duke Hu did make contributions, but it is completely unnecessary to be crowned king at a young age. Now, there are so many titles in Duke Hu's mansion. Your Majesty has given him enough gifts to Duke Hu. There is no second one in the Tang Dynasty!" Xiao Yu immediately admitted that he and Qin Huaidao were not in the way, and the whole court knew about it.

"Your Majesty, it's still a little earlier than the king. But you'll still give a charter for your Majesty's matters about the queen. Now the people in the world are talking about it. They all say that Your Majesty needs to establish a queen, otherwise the court will be in chaos. I think this matter is the top priority!" At this time, a minister of the Wei family stood up and said to Li Shimin.

Now they also found that if Qin Huaidao comes back and publicly supports Li Chengqian, then there will definitely be no hope for the matter of the Empress. Qin Huaidao alone can stop it. And they also analyzed that Qin Huaidao may stop it. After all, Li Lixian is the sister of Li Chengqian's mother and compatriots. If it cannot be stopped, then there will be no help at that time.

"It's nonsense. Now when talking about the epidemic, why did you talk about the Empress Dowager?" Li Chengqian stood there, staring at the officials of those aristocratic families and said,

Li Shimin was sitting there thinking about this. He knew that many officials from aristocratic families were afraid that Qin Huaidao would be crowned with kings. Once Qin Huaidao was crowned with kings, it would be even more difficult for those aristocratic families to deal with Qin Huaidao. Now they are all afraid of Qin Huaidao. Qin Huaidao has very high prestige, whether in the people, in the army, or among some officials.

"Okay, I have talked about the matter of establishing the Queen, and I will only consider it clearly. Moreover, the Crown Princess and the Princess are also handling it very well. It doesn't make much sense to establish the Queen or not!" Li Shimin sat there and spoke,

When the ministers of the aristocratic families heard this, they knew that Li Shimin might have changed his mind and did not want to establish the queen. If he did not want to establish the queen, he would fully support Li Chengqian. They didn’t know where the change had happened. Li Shimin was not like this before.

"His Majesty!"

"Okay, let's talk about Boping's affairs and the Yangzhou epidemic. Boping may be in Yangzhou now, and I don't know what the situation in Yangzhou is. In addition, other prefectures in Yangzhou have also come here to write a letter, hoping to send people from the medical school. They now know the situation in Jiangning Prefecture, and I hope Qin Huaidao can bring people there. Let's discuss it!" Li Shimin sat there, looking at the officials below and said.

"Your Majesty, I guess there will be news about Duke Hu in the past two days. However, in other prefectures, I believe that Duke Hu needs to send people to treat him quickly. After all, other prefectures are not as serious as Yangzhou, so they need to be treated first to avoid greater losses!" Fang Xuanling said before he could wait for other ministers to speak, and directly took over the topic. At this time, other ministers still wanted to discuss the matter of establishing the queen, so there was nothing he could do.

"Well, but Boping brought about 100 people to let them spread, and he might not be able to be treated!" Li Shimin sat there, thought for a while and said.

"Yes, this is exactly what I am in a dilemma. I originally wanted to write a letter to Boping myself, but because of this, I dare not write it over!" Fang Xuanling continued to bow and said.

"Well, where are you? Do you have any suggestions?" Li Shimin sat there, looking at the ministers below and asked.

After the court was over, Li Shimin carried his hands behind his back and went upstairs, while Li Chengqian followed behind. In fact, Li Shimin had been considering the title of Qin Huaidao. Now Qin Huaidao has five dukes who continue to reward Dukes. Qin Huaidao would definitely not want it. According to Li Shimin's opinion, the prince asked the next emperor to enfeoff.

He hoped that Qin Huaidao could assist the next emperor with his heart, but now Qin Huaidao's contribution is beyond reward, and it is impossible not to be granted. If he is granted, Li Shimin didn't know what to rely on to win over Qin Huaidao at that time. He did not lack money, Qin Huaidao did not want power, and his title was already at its peak.

Soon Li Shimin arrived at the study on the fourth floor, and Li Chengqian also followed him.

"Father, I'm still worried about smallpox. I believe Boping will definitely consider this!" Li Chengqian saw Li Shimin considering the problem there, so he asked.

"No, my father also believes in Boping. What my father is thinking about is what to reward Boping? Reward the prince?" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and asked.

"Of course, it's meaningless to reward the prince!" Li Chengqian nodded affirmatively and said, while Li Shimin was a little confused about how to tell this son. He didn't know whether this son really didn't understand or pretended not to understand.

"Father, why, is there any problem?" Li Chengqian was very happy today, so he didn't think deeper.

"Have you ever thought about it? If the father rewarded him as the prince, what would you rely on to win him over?" Li Shimin stared at Li Chengqian and asked.

"Will win over?" Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin without understanding.

"Yes!" Li Shimin nodded, staring at Li Chengqian.

"No, Father, I and him still need to win over?" Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin without understanding.

"If you don't win him over, why should he do things for you?" Li Shimin continued to ask back.

"Father, he is the brother-in-law of the son minister and his good friend. The son minister needs to win him over. At that time, Boping probably just stares at the son minister. If there is anything wrong with the son minister, he will definitely say that the other son minister does not need to win over at all!" Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin and explained.
