The Ming Dynasty started with saving the eldest grandson

Chapter 94 Demonic Monk Yao Guangxiao

Chen Jingke, who was talking to Zhu Di, saw the monk out of the corner of his eye. He thought of someone in his heart and couldn't help but turn his head and look over.

Zhu Di noticed his gaze and thought he was curious about why he brought a monk with him, so he said casually:

"This is the monk sent by my father to assist me. His Buddhist name is Daoyan. I gave him his common name Yao Guangxiao."

Sure enough, it was him, the demon monk Daoyan, the prime minister in black, Yao Guangxiao.

Chen Jingke felt a little excited.

"It turns out to be Master Daoyan. I have also heard of his name in Beijing. He is a great man who has learned from all three religions."

Zhu Di smiled and said: "Master Dao Yan is very knowledgeable, and I often ask him for advice."

From his expression, Chen Jingke could tell that Dao Yan had not yet encouraged Zhu Di to rebel.

It's normal when you think about it. Zhu Di has only been a feudal lord for less than two years, and Dao Yan only went to Beijing this year.

The relationship between the two of them should not be good enough to discuss such a topic.

What's more, Ma Xiuying, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Xiongying are all still alive, and there is a high probability that Dao Yan will not dare to open his mouth to seduce Zhu Di easily.

"To be praised so much by King Yan, it seems that Master Daoyan's ability is indeed extraordinary. I will ask him in person if I have the opportunity."

Zhu Di didn't think too much, just smiled and said: "When we settle down, you can come to him at any time."

Daoyan also noticed that the two of them were looking at him, so he saluted from a distance, but did not come closer.

Zhu Di just nodded in greeting, while Chen Jingke returned the greeting.

After confirming the identity of the other party, Chen Jingke was not prepared to continue talking and asked instead:
"By the way, I wonder if disinfectants are promoted in the military and how effective they are?"

Zhu Di immediately put the matter behind him and said happily:
"Okay, the effect is really great. And the "Epidemic Prevention Manual" is also very effective."

"Not only has the military camp become cleaner, but the number of sick people has also decreased by at least [-]%..."

The "Epidemic Prevention Manual" was also written by Chen Jingke. The content is very simple, including hygiene, frequent bathing, and drinking hot water.

It was sent to Peiping together with the disinfectant. It will be promoted in a small area first, and if feasible, it will be promoted nationwide.

Peiping is Zhu Di's vassal, so he knows the effects of these two things best.

When I mentioned it now, I was naturally very excited.

Pulling Chen Jingke along, they began to discuss: "Chen Bandu, your medical skills are truly the best in the world. You can even detect disease..."

"If you hadn't said it, who would have thought that washing hands, bathing, and drinking boiled water would reduce illness..."

Chen Jingke was very proud of himself. As a time traveler, the happiest time is when he gets a "wow" from the knowledge of his previous life.

Speaking of which, the tradition of drinking boiled water for all people is not as old as everyone thinks.

People who were proficient in health preservation in ancient times indeed found that drinking boiled water had certain benefits for the body.

But they don't know the reason and can only speculate that it has something to do with heat.

Because of this uncertainty, no one will specifically promote hot water.

Even the rich and powerful rarely drink hot water, let alone ordinary people.

Until the middle of the [-]th century, we had a fight with Laos and the United States in Liaodong.

The United States launched germ warfare against us, causing many military and civilian casualties.

So the national campaign of "Drink boiled water to prevent aging" was launched.

After the war ended, this habit remained.

By the way, China is the only country in the world that boils water for drinking.

The reason why many people believe that drinking boiled water is a traditional habit since ancient times is largely due to the influence of movies and TV series.

It's like when we see the common people in movies and TV dramas whose bodies are similar to those of modern people, we subconsciously think that they eat well.

However, in fact, ancient people were generally thin.

The reason is very simple, the food is poor, the work is heavy, and the nutrition is not up to par.

Chen Jingke saw with his own eyes that [-]% of the people in Yingtian Mansion were on the thin side, let alone other places.

This is still the time of peace, and in troubled times, people will starve and die everywhere.In the same way, everyone in movies and TV shows drinks boiled water. Subtly, we may mistakenly think that we have been drinking boiled water since ancient times.

In fact, many things that modern people take for granted were completely different in ancient times.

Many of the traditional habits we think of are actually not that old.

While they were talking, the followers of Prince Yan's Mansion had already prepared the frame of the carriage. Everyone got on their horses, pedaled their carriages, and headed towards Yingtian Mansion.

Zhu Xiongying originally wanted to ride a horse, but Zhu Di picked him up and threw him into Xu Miaoyun's carriage.

"If you are not in good health, just ride in a car and ride whatever horse you want."

Zhu Xiongying was dissatisfied and wanted to refute, but was immediately pestered by Zhu Gaochi and could only sit in the car obediently.

On the way, Zhu Di continued to chat with Chen Jingke, and soon the bored Xu Yungong also joined in.

Then Uncle Lang discovered that the other party was truly a military genius and was no weaker than me.

The more we chatted, the more speculative it became.

So Chen Jingke could only listen. Even as a time traveler, in front of professionals, he could only listen.

But this was also a rare learning opportunity for him, and he listened very seriously.

Soon the carriage entered Yingtian City and was stopped by several eunuchs before entering the city:
Your Majesty summoned King Yan, his wife and their children to the palace.

So Zhu Di ordered his men to return to his house in Yingtian, and he took his wife and children to the palace.

At this point, it has nothing to do with Chen Jingke and Xu Yungong.

Xu Yungong resigned and returned home. After Chen Jingke entered the palace, he returned to his residence alone.

Zhu Di, Zhu Xiongying and others went to Kunning Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma had been waiting for them for a long time.

Both of them were very happy to see their children and grandchildren return.

Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Di to ask about the situation in Peiping and check the gains and losses of his work.

Xu Miaoyun accompanied Ma Xiuying with her children, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked about life matters.

Only Zhu Gaochi was taken to play in the courtyard by Zhu Xiongying.

At this time, Zhu Di already had four children, two sons and two daughters. The eldest, Zhu Gaochi, was only five years old, the second and third were all daughters, and the youngest was Zhu Gaoxu.

There is a child in the belly, it is Zhu Gaosui.

It can be said that after marrying Zhu Di, she basically had one child a year.

In the past, Ma Xiuying would have been very happy. It was a blessing to have many children and grandchildren.

But now he looked at his daughter-in-law and said with distress, "Hey, it's been a hard life being married to the fourth child all these years."

Xu Miaoyun was a little confused and suddenly said, "What are you doing?"
But he was still very moved by his mother-in-law's concern and said, "Thank you for your concern, it's not hard work."

"I am a princess, and I will be attended to when I come in and out..."

Ma Xiuying said: "That's not what I meant, I meant to have a baby."

Xu Miaoyun was even more confused, but she still explained: "The children are also taken care of by a nanny. I only need to accompany them on weekdays."

Ma Xiuying shook her head and said: "You don't understand... I didn't understand before either. I thought it was a blessing to have children."

"After listening to Chen Jingke's lectures on medical skills every day for the past few months, I realized that having children continuously will shorten one's lifespan."

"Ah? This..." Xu Miaoyun was shocked.

Will having children in succession shorten your lifespan?How come no one has ever heard of it?
But she had also heard of Chen Jingke's medical skills in Peiping, which were ranked No. 1 in the world.

And he didn't dare to lie about this kind of thing.

If what he said is true, then the problem is even more serious.

It's about life, who can't panic?
