My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 484 - 330 Bidirectional Rush_2
In Zhao Country, regarding the Martial Arts sector, all the major sects owe him favors. Although he has no control over the court, Princess Six has a certain degree of influence.
The two persons—one managing external affairs, the other internal—complement each other perfectly.
Just as they finished discussing this matter, Doctor Sun came rushing in from the outside. He tripped over the threshold but quickly got up and ran to Li Nuo, exclaiming: "Doctor Li, we did it, we succeeded!"
In recent days, under Li Nuo's guidance, he and a few old friends have been researching smallpox.
They travelled several hundred miles from the capital and finally found a village suffering from a smallpox outbreak.
After numerous experiments, they successfully confirmed that the fluid from the pustules on cows with cowpox can prevent people from contracting smallpox.
Although this does not cure smallpox, it eliminates the disease before it can take hold.
This represents a significant advancement in the Medical Path.
After verifying this discovery, all of their cultivations improved significantly.
And this is just the merit of the discovery.
When more and more people are spared from smallpox, they will undoubtedly reach the Fifth Realm.
Li Nuo actually already knew about this. The moment his True Qi surged significantly, he realized Doctor Sun and his group had succeeded.
His cultivation was much lower than theirs, but as the one who proposed the idea, he benefited more. He had just recently broken through the Second Realm and was now touching the barrier of the Third Realm.
This is the advantage of the Hundred Schools' path. If you find the right direction, cultivation can progress even a realm a day.
Doctor Sun straightened up and bowed deeply to Li Nuo, saying: "Doctor Li, on behalf of the medical practitioners and the people of the world, thank you for your contributions to the Medical Path..."

In the past two months, significant events occurred every few days.
The two major events in the last half-month are particularly influential.
The first is that the court has strengthened its ties with the Martial Arts Sects and has reached significant agreements with them.
For the citizens of the capital, this isn't very meaningful, but it is greatly beneficial to the people in the areas where these Martial Arts Sects are located.
The court's essential forces are concentrated around the capital and military, while the local government forces are relatively weak.
These sects, each housing a Grandmaster, are local powers, and their assistance significantly enhances regional stability.
The other event concerns everyone.
From nobles to commoners, everyone benefits.
Several renowned imperial physicians and doctors from the Medical College of Zhao Country jointly announced that they have found a way to eradicate smallpox.
Speaking of smallpox, everyone, from commoners to nobles, is horrified.
Although for high-realm doctors, smallpox isn't incurable,
once smallpox spreads, high-realm doctors will be tightly controlled by the Imperial Family.
By then, whether commoners or dukes, once infected, they can only resign themselves to fate.
This news caused a huge uproar both among the upper echelons and the commoners of the capital, and even greater waves within the medical community.
After the news spread, countless medical practitioners flocked to the capital to verify it.
Behind both these events, one person is inextricably linked.
Princess Six.
The Martial Arts Tournament was her proposal.
She also single-handedly founded the Medical College.
Speaking of Princess Six, one naturally links her to the Fourth Prince.
She is the Fourth Prince's blood sister, and everything she does represents him.
During the struggle for the throne, her achievements will naturally be credited to the Fourth Prince.
If previously the other princes could still compete with the Fourth Prince in political achievements, now they have no hope at all.
There are less than four months until the Emperor announces the heir to the throne.
In these four months, it is impossible for them to accomplish something greater.
King Shun Mansion.
The three princes rarely gathered together.
King Shun, the eldest prince, glanced at the other two figures and said: "How long has it been since we, three brothers, sat down and had a good cup of tea like today?"
The other two princes remained silent.
Although they were close in childhood, they naturally grew apart as adults.
Especially after Father Emperor announced the regent competition, almost every meeting between them was a confrontation, with neither giving way.
Seeing them quiet, King Shun said: "Are you willing to watch King Sheng take that position?"
Angry King An, with pent-up frustration, said: "He even solved the smallpox problem; what can we do?"
Whether catching thieves, solving cases, or establishing a Medical College.
These are not significant achievements.
But his people solved a terrifying plague that has ravaged the continent for thousands of years; who can compare to that?
Such an achievement is worthy of the court erecting a monument for him.
The three of them want to achieve more.
But they have the will but not the power.
Previously, they distributed porridge and money and held many free clinics, and are now planning their own Medical Colleges. No amount of money can sustain such expenses.
They lack Sixth Sister's fundraising abilities, and their mansions are nearly bankrupt, but still must ensure daily porridge distribution.
If they stop, the people might immediately start cursing them.
Through these efforts, the Fourth Prince's reputation among the people has reached a peak.
With the popular sentiment behind him, most neutral courtiers will likely lean towards him.
