A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

Chapter 307 Returning to Beijing in Succession

This protracted war lasted for nearly six months.

Actually, it only looked like a war for the first two months. In the later stages, it was basically a siege, waiting, and cleaning up the mess.

The siege catapults didn't throw a single stone; instead, they hurled the corpses of many smallpox patients into the uncooperative city.

The Quanrong people did not understand why their wolf god was no longer protecting them.

Why are the people of the Great Jin Dynasty immune to smallpox while they are left to wait to die?

It's not fair! They're all made of flesh and blood, so why doesn't smallpox infect them?

No matter how unwilling you are, that's the reality.

The falling corpses, covered in pustules, shattered all the pride and psychological defenses of these Quanrong warriors.

After three months of fighting, they received the second reinforcements from the imperial court.

It's not that I'm afraid they can't be defeated, it's that I'm afraid they have too many good things and I can't bring them back.

Of course, there is one small factor as well.

It was the Regent who came to take advantage of the situation in order to secure a title for his beloved, because it was General Xie Zhuo who came.

Actually, Bao Beibei wanted to go with them when they set off; fighting in war had always been his dream.

Jin Zekang stopped him back then, but this time, upon hearing it was a war to annihilate a nation, Xie Zhuo insisted on going.

They argued and made a scene, and Jin Zekang suffered in silence. They tried to coax him for a long time, but it was no use, so they had to let him be.

Xie Zhuo's army met up with Xiao Yuan and his group halfway there.

To avoid troubling two people at once, they took the opportunity to get vaccinated, and by the time they arrived in Beirong City, the vaccine had already taken effect.

With the advance team setting an example, they had nothing to fear. They basically went empty-handed and returned fully loaded with spoils of war.

Not only the gold and silver treasures of the royal city, but also the people in the city were almost all dead, so their private property became ownerless.

Some of the gold, silver, and valuables were taken back, and the remaining houses and their furniture were registered to prepare for future migration of people to this area.

With more people, things got easier. They cleared out the enemy city by city, and after half a year, the entire Quanrong were completely garrisoned by the Jin army.

As for the remaining Quanrong people, in the face of absolute power, there was no need to wait for them to slowly die of illness.

Healthy women and children were either taken as slaves and transported back to the Great Jin Dynasty or sold to other countries.

As for the elderly and boys over ten years old, they were all executed to prevent future troubles.

The fire burned the corpses for ten days and nights, and all the wolf head patterns were replaced with the banners of the Great Jin Dynasty.

When the last wolf flag was taken down, it officially marked the complete extinction of the Quanrong people.

To be honest, some of them had already fled to Dongyi City or other countries.

But so what? They no longer have a country. How long can a rootless duckweed drift?

Without a strong nation as their backing, even if they possess wealth, they are nothing more than easy prey in the eyes of others.

Such a large-scale operation could not be kept secret, and the other countries condemned the Jin Dynasty for being too ruthless.

Unfortunately, the scholars of the Great Jin Dynasty were not to be underestimated. They had prepared in advance and even revised the drafts of their defense and supporting evidence eight times.

Is spreading plague against the natural order?

It's none of our business!

This wasn't the first time the Quanrong had experienced a smallpox outbreak; it was just that this time, the war prevented them from containing it quickly enough, leading to the destruction of their kingdom.

As for why we, the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, are not afflicted with smallpox...

That's definitely thanks to God's blessing.

You don't know, but during the battle between the two armies, some of our Jin soldiers were also infected.

But what can we do? We're just lucky.

Lord Xiao, the Marquis of Zhenguo, was a man of wide learning and once obtained an ancient prescription for treating smallpox.

Through repeated experiments, it was found that not only could smallpox be cured, but it could also be perfectly prevented.

What, you can't treat it and you won't let us treat it either?

Everyone acknowledges that the medical standards of our Great Jin Dynasty are three levels higher than those of the Quanrong.

Is it strange that they died of illness while we cured them?

Furthermore, the fact that Master Miaowu was able to attain Buddhahood at Huguo Temple in our Great Jin Dynasty proves that we are a place blessed by gods and Buddhas.

May Buddha have mercy.

Who knows if this is not retribution for the many evil deeds committed by the Quanrong?

They were the ones who started the war in the first place, so we can't just stop fighting because they broke out in a plague.

It was clearly sophistry, yet it was presented with seemingly logical arguments and evidence, leaving the other countries powerless to refute it even though they knew the truth.

The main reason is that they are also afraid.

Smallpox infection is not exclusive to dogs.

If it weren't for the arrival of the Quanrong people within their borders, which infected the Eastern Yi and Northern Frontier, they wouldn't have bothered arguing with the powerful Jin Dynasty about these matters.

Originally, I wanted to take this opportunity to get some benefits, preferably the prescription for treating smallpox.

But seeing the other party's attitude now, they dare not say anything.

What others think doesn't matter; the common people of the Ming Dynasty have unwavering faith in the Heavenly Blessing of the Great Jin.

As a result, Xiao Yuan's reputation also soared.

At this point, who still remembers the ruthless King Yama Xiao? Everyone wants to say that he is the reincarnation of a divine healer who came to save all living beings.

As for the murders he committed in the past?

Hehe, those people must have done terrible things and deserve to die.

Killing evil people is a good deed.

Lord Xiao is right.

Chief Supervisor Xiao is right.

Lord Xiao will be remembered forever.

It's true that people can say whatever they want, and Xiao Yuan felt so embarrassed listening to the praise he received from the public that he scratched his toes on the ground.

Jiang Xinyu was very satisfied with the result, and tacitly made no mention of why the Quanrong tribe broke out with a plague after they were vaccinated.

This is clearly not the kind of tactic that someone like General Xu would use.

The person who came up with this despicable idea must be either her precious child or her husband, Xiao Yuan; it could be anyone else.

What's there to ask? Does she expect her to condemn them out of righteous indignation?

Xiao Yuan was nervous for two days, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his wife had no reaction.

At the same time, he was also a little frustrated, because his sister-in-law knew his wife better than he did.

But overall, the result was good.

He had already reached the pinnacle of his power and no longer needed to use war to make money or gain military merit. This reputation for helping the world and saving people was just what he needed.

Nationwide vaccine rollout is no easy task; they've been on this path for almost a year.

In the later stages, it was no longer just about promoting smallpox vaccination.

Taking the opportunity, Jiang Xinyu also taught the doctors she had come into contact with the general medicine doctors about the prevention and treatment of common diseases in the maternal and infant handbook she had compiled.

They even used government officials to recruit women skilled in medicine to establish women's clinics, thus solving the embarrassment of women being reluctant to seek medical treatment from male doctors.

Unfortunately, many things cannot be accomplished overnight. Even if she writes many maternal and infant manuals, most of the girls are illiterate, so it will be in vain.

In the city, things were better; even women from wealthy families had the opportunity to study.

But in the countryside, it wouldn't be appropriate to have those teachers read to the village women.

As Jiang Xinyu and her companions traveled, they observed the ills of society, and the more they saw, the more things they took on.

Household chores are something that people can't stand to see. In fact, these problems have existed for a long time, but no one has paid attention to them and they've just been left there.

Xiao Yuan is a complete henpecked husband.

Anything that the lady disapproved of, he would do invariably be:

It can be solved.

no problem,

Not afraid of offending people

Go ahead and do it with confidence.

Jiang Xinyu, this lazy bum, gradually lost herself in Xiao Yuan's flattery.

He forgot that he used to just want to live a life of leisure and idleness, and now he's started to worry about the country and its people.

These two, so engrossed in their pleasure, not only forgot about the two children left behind at home, but also about the infant emperor who was crying for food and Jin Zekang, whose back was bent from the weight of official documents.

In the end, the regent had no choice but to bring forward the marriage between him and the eldest daughter of the Bashu general to bring the two of them back.

Jiang Xinyu was the matchmaker, so even if it's fake, you should at least show your face.

If the promotion of vaccines is for the sake of the Great Jin Dynasty, then their marriage alliance is also a key step in stabilizing the Great Jin Dynasty's power structure. How can it not be for the benefit of the country?

So, hurry up and come back!

Jiang Xinyu slapped her forehead in surprise, realizing that almost a year had passed.

She didn't feel guilty for forgetting Jin Zekang; she felt guilty for forgetting to ask Bao Beibei about her love life.

No wonder some people say that doing good deeds can be addictive; she was fooled by all those words of thanks.
