Chapter 012, Inoculation of Human Pox
As expected, Lin Xianyu's vaccination of acne was approved by the Empress Dowager and Shunzhi. Soon she was about to go to the imperial village in western Beijing to where to fed acne.
Given the contagiousness of smallpox, it is obviously impossible for Lin Xianyu to conduct these dangerous tests in the palace.
But the Empress Dowager had already set up a special person to serve her and assigned an imperial physician to take care of her.
Lin Xianyu is already busy asking people to start picking up clothes, which is very soft. She doesn't plan to bring too many people on this trip... Well, the few palace maids and eunuchs around her are obviously unhappy to accompany her to take risks. In today's era, everyone is afraid of talking about smallpox.
Lin Xianyu simply said, "Forget it, you don't have to follow me."
The two eunuchs and two little palace maids were both relieved of pardon and quickly kowtowed to thank them.
Only Shulu, the personal palace maid, gritted her teeth and stood up: "I am willing to serve the little master!"
Lin Xianyu was stunned. After the days of traveling through time, she could naturally see that the palace maid and eunuch next to Shulubi was indeed loyal and meticulous, but she did not expect Shulu to take the initiative to accompany her out of the palace to get acne.
Lin Xianyu nodded: "Okay, if you have this loyalty, I will not treat you badly." - She herself knew that the risk of human acne was low, but it was not without life danger. It was just that in a few years, the real smallpox would sweep the capital. Why not take this opportunity to plant human acne for Shulu, this loyal servant - naturally, I have to ask her if she is willing.
In addition, when I went to the imperial village to suck acne, although the empress dowager would arrange for her to serve her, they were all strangers and were not as loyal as Shu Lu.
At this moment, Concubine Shu rushed in anxiously, "I heard from the Queen Mother that you want to go out of the palace to plant that little thing smallpox!"
Lin Xianyu, black-line, explained quickly: "It's not smallpox, but human acne. This is very safe." - Well, it's not too safe, but it's much safer than the real smallpox virus.
Concubine Shu stamped her feet in an anxious mood, "Okay, why are you doing this?"
Lin Xianyu hurriedly explained to Shufei, "If the flowers are spreading to the north today, I am afraid they may be spread to the middle of the capital. After planting human acne, they will no longer have smallpox."
Shufei finally understood the meaning of this sentence, but she still looked anxious and uneasy, "But... But isn't this thing getting acne from the smallpox-harvest people on you? Is this difference between this and smallpox-harvesting?"
Lin Xianyu had to patiently explain the difference between acne and smallpox to Shufei, and said, "This method was found by me, Ama, he wouldn't harm me, right?" - In fact, Badu himself probably didn't expect his biological daughter to experiment with her, right?
After hearing this, Concubine Shu finally believed it three times. She held Lin Xianyu's hand and sighed: "Anyway, the Empress Dowager has already allowed it. It's too late for you to regret it now. I just hope that this method will be really useful."
Lin Xianyu hurriedly comforted Concubine Shu Loli with soft voice: "Don't worry, I will definitely return safely."
Seven days later, Lin Xianyu, accompanied by his personal palace maid Shulu, left the palace from Xihuamen, took an inconspicuous blue car to the imperial village west of the capital.
The Queen Mother was indeed a reliable boss. Although this imperial farm was not luxurious, it was relatively far away from the crowd. The Queen Mother also ordered people to find a few mama-faced ladies to serve them. - Mazi is not uncommon in this era, otherwise how could there be Mapo tofu?
The doctor who specially vaccinated her with acne from the south. It is said that he vaccinated children with acne, and only five or six out of a hundred people died.
However, considering the shortcomings of the acne vaccination method in this era, Lin Xianyu said that "I am a concubine in the inner palace and should not be in contact with a male outside." So he asked the doctor to leave the acne powder and gave him silver, so he asked him to leave.
Next, Lin Xianyu asked Shulu to prepare a strong liquor and a sharp fruit knife. Considering that Shulu was unlikely to use a knife to her, Lin Xianyu had to do it himself.
First, I took off my jacket, robe and middle clothes, exposed my snow-white arms, and then applied strong wine to... the place where I was often vaccinated. The fruit knife also disinfected the liquor, then gently scratched a little skin, and then pasted the acne powder.
By the way... this person's acne powder seems to be unsterilized...is it no problem?
But now I can only make up for it. I don’t even know if the strong wine is 75 degrees.
After receiving the acne in his arms, Lin Xianyu looked like he didn't feel anything for several days. It was not until seven or eight days later that he felt a little fever and his arms were itchy. After taking off his clothes and checking, he found that there was a red pimple, like a larger acne.
When she found out that she had acne, the imperial village immediately entered a tightly sealed state. Shulu and the mapo became nervous, and Lin Xianyu couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Without a thermometer, Lin Xianyu could only rely on her feelings. Her head was not too hot, she should have just a low fever and a little weak body. Apart from that, she didn't feel too discomfort.
But she still rested in bed under the advice of Mapo’s servant, and used physical cooling methods to apply a cold veil to her head day and night.
This low fever lasted for several days. The acne on the arm became bigger, and there were a few itchs on the body. In the end, even the acne on the neck and face appeared!
Alas, now it's going to be disfigured.
On her data panel, the physical strength data dropped three points in three days, which made her feel more suspenseful than the virus on her body.
"This is because I was infected with the smallpox virus and my body fell into a weak state, so I lost my energy. When I recovered from the illness, I should recover, right?" Lin Xianyu shouted at the palace fighting system in his heart.
However, the system is silent!
It is precisely after traveling through time and after the basic introduction, the system becomes mute.
Damn it!
Lin Xianyu cursed in his heart.
This broken system is indeed unreliable!
Lin Xianyu felt quite uncomfortable. In addition to the continuous low fever, she gradually felt headache and dizzy, and was in a daze.
Fortunately, Shulu and a few Ma Pozi fed her food and medicine every day and wiped her body with alcohol. After the physical strength fell to two points, they did not continue to lose.
This condition lasted for more than half a month, and the body finally improved. The symptoms of heat, headache, dizziness gradually eased and subsided. The acne on her body did not ulcerate or suppurate, and did not spread on a large scale. The number was much smaller than that of smallpox patients. Her physical strength began to gradually recover.
After a month, the acne on her body matured and began to fall off.
Lin Xianyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had taken this person's acne through it.
