Chapter 791: Chapter 791 Taking Action
....Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Thank you, Grandmother.” After the Emperor thanked her, he instructed the little princess to be a good girl and went to work.
The moment he left, the previous Empress Dowager first sent Nanny Liu to count all the beautiful women who had never slept with the previous Emperor.
She sent someone to call Consort Xian and her daughter-in-law, King An’s family, and the three generations of the old woman into the palace.
“I called you all here today to ask for your help.”
“Mother, if you need anything, just tell me.” Consort Xian said.
“Yes. If there’s anything you need, please instruct us.” Elder Consort An echoed.
“I will say it directly.
“You should also know that a group of women in the palace have served the previous Emperor. Some of them are even virgins who have never slept with him. Letting them accompany him for the rest of their lives is too cruel.
“The current Emperor is kind and wants to let them go out and get married, so he wants to invite you to their parents’ homes to investigate their willingness. If they are willing to accept this arrangement, we will let them out of the palace.
“We won’t force those who aren’t willing.
“However, the girls won’t be qualified to be selected again if they go home.” “What will happen to those who are unwilling to accept it?” The old consort asked.
If they didn’t accept it and would end up very miserable, it was believed that not many would give up for their family’s reputation.
“Many young men in the army still have yet to get married. The Emperor will a.s.sign them to them when the time comes.” The Empress Dowager replied.
The old consort and the others looked at each other and had an idea.
After a while, Nanny Liu returned with a detailed list of names. She handed it to the previous Empress Dowager. “Madam, this is the list of the women who have never slept with the previous Emperor.”
After the previous Empress Dowager took it, she glanced at it. She didn’t expect there to be quite a lot. The younger one entered the palace during the last selection and was only 22 years old.
The older one was nearly forty years old. Her d.a.m.ned son was really guilty.
She was too careless. Those who were over 25 should have been released like palace maids.
She selected those who had family members in the capital and a.s.signed them to five people.
After they left, she handed out the list of people with no family in the capital. She gave it to Nanny Liu. “Send these letters to their families and ask for their opinions.”
“Yes.” Granny Liu paused and asked, “Madam, the two oldest ones want to stay in the palace. They used to work in the embroidery room when they had nothing to do. They said they wanted to become embroiderers.”
The previous Empress Dowager nodded thoughtfully and said, “Check them out first if these two people are safe. If they are, they can stay. Otherwise, they can’t stay in the palace.”
No matter what, the late Emperor wasted their youth. It would be dangerous for the current Emperor if they were to harbor resentment in their hearts.
“Yes.” Nanny Liu responded and left with the name list.
After the Emperor returned to the royal study, he thought about it and could not decide on what official he should give Gu Chengrui.
Luckily, this matter was not urgent. What was urgent was to spread the vaccine as soon as possible.
At the thought of this, he summoned the imperial physicians, including Gu Chengrui, into the palace and asked, “Everyone, tell me, how can we quickly and effectively promote the spread of vaccines?”
“I think we can send two more imperial physicians out to supervise the local doctors’ cooperation.” Imperial Physician Liu replied.
“It will be a little slow. We can send more doctors from the capital and teach them how to get the vaccine from cowpox. Everyone will head out to different places together, and it will be promoted faster.” Princ.i.p.al Zhou stepped forward and suggested.
Following that, the other imperial physicians also came forward to express their thoughts, but they were all similar and had no new ideas.
The key was to control the doctors among the people and not spread the fear of cowpox..
