After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

I pushed Doctor Sun and said, "Don't just stand there. Go and discuss with the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Internal Affairs how to make these two things. I'll go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony to discuss it with His Majesty now."

Doctor Sun said in panic, "You can't go to His Majesty!"

"I know I might have been infected with the virus. In the early stage when there are no symptoms, I can drink some detoxifying drugs to suppress the outbreak of the smallpox virus." I picked up a pen and wrote three prescriptions on it. "These three prescriptions are for the early, middle and late stages. In order to prevent some drug dealers from raising prices after the outbreak of the plague, your majesty must issue a ban. Forget it, I'd better go to your majesty to discuss it directly."

I was about to leave when I thought of something and turned to ask Doctor Sun, "Do you have any strong liquor?"

"Yes." Doctor Sun quickly asked the medicine boy to bring a bottle of white wine.

I poured the white wine on my hands, rubbed them vigorously, and then wiped my face. The strong smell of alcohol almost made me faint.

Then he sprinkled some on his body as a simple disinfection.

I pulled a handkerchief out of my sleeve, tied it around my face, and said to Doctor Sun, "Time is of the essence. Don't delay."

Doctor Sun nodded quickly.

I felt a little dizzy from the smell of white wine. As soon as I turned my head, I hit it on the door panel, which made my head buzz.

Doctor Sun was so frightened that he screamed, "Ah Man, be careful."

I waved my hand and said, "I'm fine, go ahead and do your work."

I stumbled out, but I really underestimated the power of this ancient high-proof white liquor. As soon as I walked out the door, I fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

When I woke up, I found myself lying on the big bed in Chang'an Palace!

I touched my still swollen head and felt too tired to complain about how unlucky I was, a person who could never accomplish anything and always caused trouble. I wanted to detoxify myself but ended up getting myself drunk. This was probably the biggest joke in the world.

I was feeling upset when I suddenly heard Zheng Xian's voice: "Are you feeling better, Ah Man?"

I jumped up in shock and saw Zheng Xian standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, staring at the red plum tree in the corner without moving.

I was so scared that I spoke incoherently, "I have had close contact with a smallpox carrier and I am very likely infected with the virus. Your Majesty, please go back quickly. If you are infected, it will be troublesome for you."

Zheng Xian said slowly, "Didn't you get the power of the White Witch? Why are you afraid of infection?"

When I heard that, I thought, yes, I have my own healing abilities, why would I be afraid of being infected?

No, how did Zheng Xian know that I had the power of the White Witch? I never told him about it!

I always thought that this secret was well hidden, but I didn't expect that it was just my own thought in the end.

I secretly glanced at Zheng Xian. His face was very calm, without any fluctuations.

"What? You have nothing to say to me?" Zheng Xian said again slowly.

I touched my head and said, "Don't you know everything?"

"Why did you hide it from me?" Zheng Xian turned his head at this time and stared at me with a creepy look.

I couldn't help but be shocked. The crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by death!

Zheng Xian's temper is unpredictable now. In the past, I relied on his luck and could do whatever I wanted, but now my fate is no longer connected with his. I'm afraid he has noticed it a long time ago. The reason why he has not troubled me before is that I guess I am still of some use. Otherwise, with his temperament, he would have chopped me up and thrown me to feed the fish.

I thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an excuse. Zheng Xian had already lost his patience and snorted heavily, which scared me so much that I shuddered and blurted out, "The power of this White Witch is only as much as a piece of white thread. I really don't want to use it for public use."

Zheng Xian sneered and said, "You don't want to use it for public use, but you use it to treat Master Bai instead of detoxifying me."

Huh? So this is why he's angry?!

I had no choice but to walk forward and flatter him, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will leave the rest to you and will not give it to anyone else."

In fact, my heart was bleeding. I wanted to keep this little bit of Bai Nu Gong's strength to attack the remaining acupuncture points, so that I could become a top expert among experts. Who knew that Zheng Xian would intercept me halfway? He had been poisoned for a long time, and the poison had already penetrated into his bones. I am afraid that the little bit of strength left is not enough to detoxify him.

I feel like crying but I have no tears.

Zheng Xian smiled brightly after hearing this, thinking, it is indeed more effective to ask directly than to beat around the bush. This stupid girl wants to embezzle such precious power, so forget it!

Zheng Xian said: "I like Ah Man who is well-behaved and obedient."

I rolled my eyes secretly. Everyone knows that I am not a submissive person. It would be extremely difficult to get me to be obedient.

I thought of the smallpox virus and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, the virus has been brought back to the country from the border by those two doctors. I'm afraid it will spread soon."

Zheng Xian nodded and said, "I understand. I heard from Dr. Sun that cowpox can prevent and cure smallpox. Is this true?"

I nodded quickly and said, "Yes, there is no highly effective vaccine at present. Only the smallpox vaccine is the most effective."

"What is cowpox vaccine?" Zheng Xian asked puzzledly.

I answered, "We implant the smallpox virus into cattle, which will cause herpes to grow on the cattle. We extract the pus from the herpes and inject it into the human body, which can play a preventive and therapeutic role."

Zheng Xian's scalp was about to explode when he heard this. His eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.

This method will shock anyone who hears it in this era of shortage of medical care and medicine, but it is the most effective method.

After a long while, Zheng Xian swallowed hard and said, "Does this recipe come from your era?"

I shook my head and said, "In our time, the smallpox virus had long been eradicated. Even if there were one or two cases, the vaccine used was the safest and most effective vaccine that had been repeatedly studied and tested in the research laboratory. And it was not the cowpox vaccine directly extracted from cows."

Zheng Xian took a deep breath and asked, "What is the cure rate of the cowpox vaccine?"

I answered: "About 70% to 80%."

Zheng Xian asked in surprise: "So high?"

I was even more surprised than he was and said, "Is this still considered high? If the mortality rate reaches 20 or 30 percent, the vaccine will be considered a failure."

Zheng Xian nodded and said, "I feel relieved that Ah Man is here. How do you want to use cowpox to make a vaccine?"

The word was a bit difficult to pronounce, and Zheng Xian took a while to figure it out.

I said, "We will first plant smallpox virus in cattle. When the cattle become sick, herpes will grow on their bodies. The onset time of cattle will be shorter than that of humans, but I estimate that it will take about ten to fifteen days to extract the cowpox vaccine. During this period, the epidemic is estimated to have broken out in various places. The disease will last for three to five days. If there is no drug treatment, the patient will die. Therefore, the prescriptions I wrote to Dr. Sun should be made into pills as soon as possible and distributed to various places to delay time and wait for the arrival of the vaccine."
