Chapter Seventy-Nine: Trust
Benzoin is not enough, it affects the production of Zhibaodan, Zhibaodan and Zixuedan, Angong Niuhuang Pill are known as the three treasures of Liangkai, but also the three treasures of warm disease, is the representative of the method of opening the body and awakening the mind, is a good medicine for the treatment of epidemic and warm disease, and is very suitable for today's Zhigu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Because if Zhigu is followed by a major epidemic, these two pills can treat the epidemic, if God is fortunate that there is no outbreak of the epidemic, but it does not mean that there will be no outbreak of other acute fever, this kind of external disease in addition to the nature of wind and cold acute fever belongs to the scope of temperature disease, at this time the most prone to outbreak is summer temperature, humid temperature. Although it is not more terrible than the epidemic government, but it is also contagious and epidemic, the three treasures are very effective against this kind of warm disease, but all three are very valuable, especially the Zhibao Dan, as soon as you hear this name, you know, it is a collection of many precious medicinal materials in one, the curative effect is outstanding, and the people who get it are like the treasure, so it is named.
Originally, the ancient recipe of Zhibaodan not only had musk, rhino horn, amber and other expensive medicinal materials, but also needed to use 50 pieces of gold and silver foil, which was to strengthen the effect of amber and cinnabar in the prescription to calm the nerves. At the same time, because the black rhino horn has become a treasure and is extremely rare, it has also been changed to buffalo horn.
Speaking of rhino horn, this kind of animal horn was originally used as a precious ornament, especially in the Han Dynasty, the rhinoceros horn of Daqin, Tiaozhi and other countries was introduced to China through the Silk Road, which greatly satisfied the demand for rhino horn in the upper class. Later, rhino horn was found to clear heat and calm shock, cool blood and detoxify, and other therapeutic purposes, which were in short supply. Nowadays, there is a rhino horn called Tongtian rhinoceros, which is produced in Tianzhu, that is, India, there is a rhino horn produced in Java, called Wen rhino, which is a very rare fragrant rhino, and there is a Brahmin rhinoceros from Sumatra, which is even more rare in the world - now that the sea has been banned, all kinds of exotic rhino horns cannot flow into China, but fortunately, China also has its own buffalo horn, the effect is similar to that of rhino horn, generally used as a substitute for rhino horn, but it is still not as good as rhino horn.
That is, in the palace medicine, the rhino horn can be seen, which is still the inventory in the court of the Yuan Dynasty, and now it has all been taken out by Princess Xu and handed over to the Huimin Pharmacy, but another medicinal herb, benzoin, this thing is far away from the ancient rest country of Central Asia, Qiuzi country, Cao country, Arabian Peninsula and Iranian plateau, and the nearest one must be imported from Sumatra.
"For the sake of the future," said the princess, "there is only four sides to seek medicine." ”
She summoned the deacons who could be used in the house and sent them out one by one: "Hurry up and send a letter to Daning, Yanzhou and Datong, Brother Jin should not be in Taiyuan now, but will hunt in Shuozhou, Datong has urgent letters that can be sent directly to Shuozhou." King Lu is an orphan and widow, you should discuss things with the chief of the palace, although the king of Qi is located in Qingzhou, not far from the king of Lu, but you can't ask the king of Qi for help, remember to remember!"
She arranged these people away, and used the golden seal of the prince to mobilize the left guard of Yanshan, and ordered them to escort medicinal materials and be responsible for guarding, patrolling and responding to tasks, each guard under the jurisdiction of the station, there are about more than ten officers and soldiers patrolling, usually have been stationed, today all mobilized, and it is three different directions, Zhang Zhaohua is dizzy when he sees it, but the princess is like a lightweight, one by one will be the defense talisman to the commanders of each thousand households, at a glance, it is familiar with the transfer of troops.
Before all this was arranged, a second urgent letter reached the palace, which confirmed the worst outcome, with more than 6,000 people killed and wounded in the Zhigu salt works, close to 4,000, and a suspected outbreak of the epidemic.
"Without further ado, first transport the medicinal materials from the Huimin Pharmacy in Beiping Mansion to Zhigu," everyone was sweating on their foreheads, but the princess became more and more calm: "Pass through all the guards along the way, and call all the doctors to Zhigu to solve the urgent need." ”
"This time, not only do you have to recruit good doctors in Beiping Mansion and various prefectures and counties," the princess sent Wang An out: "Even if you are a person who is familiar with pharmacology and knows how to dispense medicine, follow me to Dong'an County." ”
"What if no one answers?" Ge Changshi seemed to remember the old events of the five years of Hongwu.
"Then forcibly recruit!" There are still a few doctors in Beiping, they are old, and it is okay if they don't want to go," the princess actually had a flash of murderous intent in her eyes: "But if you borrow their medicinal materials, if you still push them back, you will be too ignorant." At this time, if there are people who take the opportunity to hoard and resell medicinal materials, they will all be arrested and punished, and they must not be tolerated. The princess was so decisive to kill, but it reassured everyone, but Zhang Zhaohua suddenly remembered that pharmacies have been set up in various states and counties, and now the pharmacy ambassador only counted the medicinal materials in Beiping, but why didn't the medicinal materials in other states and counties mention it.
"Only one prefecture pharmacy can distribute medicinal herbs to various places," the ambassador explained, "but the prefecture and county can only ensure that the medicinal materials are sufficient locally, and if all the medicinal materials are requisitioned, the epidemic will spread to the local area, and it will not be cured." ”
"What's more, the pharmacy is actually under the jurisdiction of the Tai Hospital, and the government pharmacy can have greater power to respond to the situation, but the state and county pharmacies must see the posts jointly signed by the government and the Tai Hospital before they can call the medicinal materials. The ambassador said: "But when the news reached Jingshi, five or six days passed back and forth, delaying the best diagnosis and treatment." ”
"Now it's an urgent matter of sparks," Zhang Zhaohua said: "The outbreak of the epidemic, racing against time is to save lives, and His Royal Highness King Yan is on the front line, if it is contaminated with a little unlucky thing, let alone the state and county pharmacies, it is the Jingshi Tai Hospital, and they will all be punished! What do you care about the posts of the Tai Hospital now, is it that the Tai Hospital still does not allow the use of medicinal materials? Sooner or later, it is the lives of tens of thousands of people, and we have to wait for these processes! Even if someone criticizes or participates, this is to save people and give relief, will the emperor still hold on to this point? ”
The words were very reasonable, everyone nodded yes, and the princess said: "That's a good point, when the post of the Tai Hospital arrives in Beiping, then I don't know how many people's lives will be delayed - I think I will take the official post of the Beiping envoy and the seal letter of the palace, go to Changping, Tongzhou and Jixian County, collect the medicinal materials from the pharmacy, and send them to Zhigu as soon as possible." ”
The places that the princess said are all very exquisite. Because if the victims go north, Dong'an County has not had time to stop them, they will go to places like Daxing or Fangshan along the way, so just in case, the pharmacies in these places will not be requisitioned, and Tongzhou in the east of Beiping, Jixian in the northeast, and Changping in the northwest are places where the disaster victims cannot go, and the requisition of the drug bureau is naturally harmless.
It's just that all the eunuchs and deacons in the palace have been sent away, and there is no suitable person to handle this errand for a while. Ge Changshi asked for his own order, but the princess shook her head and disagreed: "This matter has to go back and forth, going all over the place, Changshi is old, and his body can't bear it, not to mention that I went to Dong'an, and the house still has to rely on you to take care of it." ”
"Mother, I have a candidate here," Zhang Zhaohua thought about it, and suddenly said: "There is a eunuch named Huang Yan in the manufacturing office, who was originally from the dining house, and he is short and festive, do you remember?"
The princess thought for a moment and said, "There was such a person, and then Gao Chi sent him home, why did he go to the office again, why did I never see him in the office." ”
"He went to the eldest son's camp town to supervise the official kiln," Zhang Zhaohua said: "This person is very clever and sleek, if he is sent to collect medicinal materials, he will make the best use of it." ”
Zhang Zhaohua is right, although Huang Yan has some thoughts of climbing upward, and he is also good at flattery, but this person cannot be said to be unable to do things, and such a matter of requisitioning medicinal materials without complete procedures can only make all parties thoughtful and have no resentment.
The princess smiled slightly and said: "Since you recommended him, I think you have a good grasp of his ability, so I don't ask him if he has such experience, I just believe that he can do well." ”
Zhang Zhaohua was very moved for a while, the princess did not trust Huang Yan, but trusted herself - she hurriedly promised: "Mother trusts her son, and her son will naturally not let his mother down." ”
