At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

Hearing someone coming in, Zhu Qiyu hurriedly said: "Don't come in, talk at the door if you have something to say!"

He was worried that his sores would be contagious, and he had been shutting himself in the room these days.

"...Your Highness, the imperial decree has arrived!"

Zhu Qiyu sat up suddenly and asked, "Who passed the decree?"

"It's His Royal Highness King Zhou!"

"King Zhou?"

"Exactly, His Royal Highness King Zhou came here with a decree, and brought more than [-] imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital. The purpose of this trip is to clear up the sores."

When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he immediately became excited. He thought that the emperor would send at most two imperial physicians here, but unexpectedly, he found King Zhou and brought more than [-] people with him. Didn't he move the entire imperial hospital here?
"Immediately summon all the civil and military officials on the island, pay attention, there is no disease, go to receive the order on behalf of the king, and tell the king of Zhou that the king has a malignant sore, please forgive me for not being able to come forward."

"Yes!"

Zhu Qiyu lay on the bed, the worries in his heart were slowly relieved.

King Zhou's lineage has profound attainments in medical skills and is well-known among the people. With King Zhou personally sitting in the town, Nanhaiwei's sore disease was cured!

What's more, the identity of Zhou Wang is here, and if there is any accident in his body, he can still hold the situation.

Thinking of his own body, he stretched out his arms, and seeing the dots of poisonous spots, he couldn't help but smile wryly.

Since contracting the disease, my body has been deteriorating, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this test...

His mind was in a daze, and he didn't know how long it had been before he heard someone outside the door come in to deliver food.

"Is it Yuan Fu?"

"Returning to Your Highness, it is the old slave."

This person's name is Yuan Fu, who was originally an eunuch next to Xuanzong. In the first year of Zhengtong, he was assigned to Prince Yi's mansion. It has been almost 20 years now.

Zhu Qiyu struggled to get up and asked, "Where is King Zhou now?"

"His Royal Highness King Zhou has already led people to set off."

"Go? Where to go?"

"To investigate the condition and look for medicinal materials to treat the disease."

Only then did Zhu Qiyu heave a sigh of relief, and said: "The king of Zhou traveled thousands of miles across the ocean and came here. He didn't have time to rest, so he set out to heal the sick. This is a great righteousness!"

"That's right, Your Highness!"

Yuan Fu put the dinner plate on the table and said: "His Royal Highness Zhou Wang also said that because this kind of sore is too contagious, the number of infected patients is already too large to count, and a large amount of medicinal materials may be needed in the future. It might be too late to buy and then ship it over, so it’s best to solve it locally.”

Zhu Qiyu frowned and said: "The climate here is hot and the vegetation is flourishing, so there must be a lot of medicinal materials, but... there are too few doctors here, even if we go to the mountains to collect medicinal herbs, I'm afraid it will be a drop in the bucket!"

Yuan Fu said: "His Royal Highness Zhou Wang said that as long as some people are dispatched, the imperial physicians will teach you a simple method of distinguishing medicinal materials, which can solve the problem of medicinal materials."

"So good!"

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and said: "I pass on the king's orders. From now on, the Nanhai Guard will fully cooperate with the king of Zhou. No matter what the needs are, they must obey them unconditionally!"

"Yes!"

Yuan Fu agreed, turned and left.
-
When King Zhou arrived at Nanhaiwei, he immediately started working.

Ben believes that as long as there is sufficient preparation and enough medicine, the disease can be controlled.

However, after a simple visit, it was found that the situation faced was completely different from what was expected.

This kind of acne is not only highly toxic, but also extremely contagious. Even if two people have no contact, they can be contagious as long as they say a few words in the house.

The problem now is that everyone's views on the etiology are not uniform.

"This disease is caused by cold evil and heat poison, so medicines for clearing heat and detoxifying, dispelling cold and dampness should be used."

"I can't see it. When I visited patients today, some patients had chills and fever, and their limbs were extremely cold. This is a symptom of cold poison entering the body. The method of warming the yang and dispelling the cold should be used, such as Lizhong Decoction, Sini Decoction, etc. A prescription for expelling yang and dispelling cold."

"No, it is recorded in "Tiaodian of Febrile Diseases" that sores are all febrile diseases. Those with heat toxins are blisters, and those with less heat toxins are spots, which means heat toxins!"

""Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" says that the Meridian of Shaoyin governs the heart, Tiancold governs the abdomen, heavenly heat governs the head, and pemphigus is a sore. It is clearly cold poison!"

"Don't bother arguing. In my opinion, you can try acupuncture to regulate the loss of Qi and blood in the human body, and strengthen the foundation and protect the essence."

All of a sudden, there were different opinions, and they all had their own reasons, and no one could convince the other.

The King of Zhou listened to it for a long time. Some people thought it was heat poison and needed to clear away heat and pathogens, while others thought it was cold poison and needed to warm yang and dispel cold.

The treatment methods for heat poison and cold poison are completely different. If the cause cannot be determined, it is difficult to prescribe the right medicine.

Some people suggest acupuncture, no matter what kind of poison, first stick a few needles to see.

Everyone discussed and discussed, but there was no conclusion. In the end, they all looked at King Zhou.

Although these people are from Tai Hospital, their identities are quite special.

They are doctors recruited from the private sector after the reform of the imperial hospital, and they are also the first batch of non-hereditary medical officers.

Ever since the imperial hospital began to be restructured, the older generation of imperial physicians headed by Wang Sizu have been depressed every day, as if everyone owed themselves hundreds of taels of silver.

Because their descendants would not be so simple if they wanted to enter the imperial hospital and get mixed up.

No matter who it is, they need to take the same exam as ordinary people, and only those who pass the test are eligible.

In addition, King Zhou didn't have a good impression of them, so it was even more difficult to cheat.

This time when they went to sea, those old doctors all found reasons to evade, King Zhou knew in his heart that bringing these people out would only increase troubles, so he simply didn't take them.

As a result, what was supposed to be an orderly tour turned into a decisive battle within the imperial hospital.

If Nanhaiwei's sores can be cured, then the Tai Hospital will be completely changed, and those old imperial doctors will no longer have any right to speak.

On the contrary, if this trip fails, the restructuring of the Tai Hospital cannot be regarded as a success.

King Zhou said lightly: "The "Huangdi Neijing" has a saying that people with typhoid fever can't understand it for [-] days, and then they can go on after the solution. They develop a rash, red and white, first on the neck, then on the chest, abdomen, and limbs, like beans, when you can't stand it. From the beginning, only sweating will resolve, this is pemphigus. According to the current understanding of the disease, it is roughly consistent."

"In "Su Wen" it is mentioned that the sores on the head and face are yellow in color, the patch has rotted, and the tendons are broken, like the wind running through the body, sometimes hot and sometimes cold. It can be seen that the root of this disease is evil poison, Fengyao, scrofula. It also mentioned a treatment method, using lard, aloe, ephedra and other medicines to make external plasters and applying them on the affected area, which can reduce inflammation, dispel toxins, dispel wind and relieve itching. In addition, acupuncture and moxibustion can also be used , regulate the circulation of Qi and blood in the body by stimulating acupuncture points."

After hearing this, everyone frowned and thought about it. After a long while, someone asked: "Your Highness, you still can't tell whether it is heat poison or cold poison?"

King Zhou nodded and continued: "This king thinks that whether it is heat poison or cold poison, it is a manifestation of evil spirits. Now we should focus on the treatment effect and experiment according to the method recorded in "Nanjing" , if feasible, promote it immediately, if not...then continue to find new methods.”

Everyone didn't have a clue, and when they heard this, they nodded in agreement.

They are different from those old scholars in Taiyuan Hospital. Although they also pay attention to etiology and medical theory, they pay more attention to curative effect.

It is said that Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs. Did Shennong know whether these herbs were poisonous or not, whether they were yin or yang, hot or cold before tasting all kinds of herbs?
It's not one kind after another, I tasted it myself!

It was night and no one slept.

Under the leadership of King Zhou, they searched through the medical books they carried.

Finally, some effective prescriptions are summarized.

The moxibustion points mentioned in "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", moxibustion on the spleen, Shengxiang, Zhishi Decoction, etc.

Xiaoqinglong Decoction and Mahuang Decoction recorded in "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber".

In addition, there are related treatment methods in medical books such as "Qian Jin Fang".

In the end, King Zhou selected five potentially effective prescriptions, and then divided them into five groups, each leading people into the mountains to collect herbs.

I took the rest of the people and continued to go deep into the patients, especially for the seriously ill. No matter what method I use, I will save my life first, and then talk about other things.

Nanhaiwei received the order and fully cooperated.

Fortunately, the climate here is extremely suitable for the growth of herbs, and the harvest is quite rich.

After a few days, the local condition has been brought under control to a certain extent, but there is still no obvious improvement.

The five prescriptions formulated at the beginning could at most alleviate the lesions, but did not have miraculous effects.

For this reason, King Zhou also had a headache, but there was nothing he could do.

After hearing Yuan Fu's report, Zhu Qiyu learned that King Zhou's progress was slow, but he was very annoyed that he was bedridden and couldn't help much.

"His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness King Zhou has arrived!"

Zhu Qiyu was a little surprised, and hurriedly said: "Nephew Qi Yu, I have seen my uncle! I can't salute because of my health, but I hope my uncle will forgive me!"

King Zhou came with a medicine box. Before entering the door, he covered his mouth and nose with a piece of thick cotton gauze, and then said, "I will spare you the polite words. Let me see the sores on your body first!"

As he spoke, he came to the couch and opened the curtain.

Zhu Qiyu hurriedly said: "Uncle, be careful, the acne on my nephew has been present for ten days, and the poison is very strong."

The king of Zhou said: "Don't worry, this kind of sore is transmitted through droplets from the mouth, just cover your mouth and nose."

He carefully observed the acne on Zhu Qiyu's body, which had turned into blisters.

Some have scabbed over, but new red rashes can be clearly seen on the scabbed part, and these small red spots will slowly turn into blisters again.

In about ten days or so, the blisters dry out and scab again, and repeat.

"Aside from the blisters on the skin, what are the symptoms?"

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said, "Headache, fever, fatigue, loss of appetite, sore throat... Cough cough, and cough..."

King Zhou pressed Zhu Qiyu's pulse, listened to it for a while, and then asked, "How is your mental state?"

"not good……"

Zhu Qiyu shook his head slowly, and said: "The drowsiness is severe, and I feel that my consciousness is gradually becoming blurred, and I may even fall into a coma."

King Zhou stood up and paced back and forth, as if making a decision.

"Uncle has something to say, but please speak up!"

Zhu Qiyu is not a procrastinator, if things are inevitable, it's better to make it clear.

King Zhou pondered for a long time before he said: "We haven't found an effective method yet. We are trying. However, trying must be risky. I don't know..."

"I can!"

Zhu Qiyu knew what he wanted to ask, and answered neatly.

King Zhou didn't answer in a hurry, but persuaded: "Actually, you can wait, although your situation is a bit serious..."

"No need!"

Zhu Qiyu smiled wryly, and said: "Since it is an attempt, there will be risks. I understand this truth, and you can try it on me."

"You have to think about it, if something happens to you, what will Nanhaiwei do?"

"Nanhaiwei is Ming Dynasty's Nanhaiwei, not my Zhu Qiyu's Nanhaiwei. Besides, my uncle is here to preside over the overall situation, so my nephew can feel at ease."

King Zhou nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'm relieved."

As he spoke, he took out a wooden box from the medicine chest, which contained a black ointment.

"This is my newly formulated Scutellaria Yinhua Ointment. I don't know how effective it is yet."

"Nephew is willing to try medicine!"

Zhu Qiyu answered very simply, he believed in Zhou Wang's medical skills, and at the same time, he also suffered from his half-dead appearance.

It would be better to die happily than to suffer every day.

King Zhou didn't hesitate, and carefully applied ointment on the blisters on Zhu Qiyu's body, and then wrapped them with cotton cloth.

"Be careful when you are in bed. Don't wipe off the ointment on your body. Combine it with Dihuang Jiedu Decoction. It will take up to three days to see the effect!"

"Nephew understands!"

The king of Zhou explained some precautions before leaving.

He never thought of trying the medicine directly on Zhu Qiyu, but none of the five prescriptions found in the book worked.

So, I read the medical books by myself, combined with years of experience, and prepared a medicine.

However, those five prescriptions still have traces to follow, and there are books to look up. No matter whether they are successful or not, there is no problem in using them to test the medicines.

In contrast, it's hard to describe the medicine I prepared myself.

King Zhou even thought that if it was impossible, he could take the initiative to catch the disease, and then try the medicine himself.

Fortunately, Zhu Qiyu believed in himself and was willing to try the medicine.

Otherwise, he would really consider getting some sores and blisters on his body...
-
Three days later, King Zhou came to Zhu Qiyu's bed again.

When he carefully brought out the wrapped cotton cloth, his brows frowned again.

Seeing this, Zhu Qiyu already knew what happened, and said: "Uncle, don't worry, this medicine doesn't work, you can change it."

King Zhou frowned, and said: "It's not ineffective, it's just like other medicines, the disease has been relieved, but it can't be eradicated no matter what!"

Seeing that many blisters on his body had scabbed over, Zhu Qiyu said happily, "It's really much better!"

King Zhou shook his head and said, "It's not enough, it's not enough!"

Zhu Qiyu didn't think so, and said: "Since the symptoms are mild, it means that it has worked. Is it a matter of dosage?"

"no!"

Zhou Wang sighed and said: "I have tried it before, and the dosage does not affect the efficacy of the medicine. It must be that the medicine is not right!"

PS: In the past few days, I have issued anti-theft badges several times, because I was insulted by pirated copies.

A friend saw this book in a certain browser, and then showed me the screenshot of the comment.

This made me very angry. Those people don’t mind watching the pirated version, but also commented. To be precise, it’s all kinds of sprays, all kinds of bad reviews...

Deceiving too much!
