Chapter Twenty-Nine: Zhang Zhongjing's Request

After solving the annoying fly of Qincha, Liu Hou turned his head, arched his hand to Zhang Zhongjing, and said, "The divine doctor is also here." Great, with you here, many injured soldiers have another chance to live. ”

Zhang Zhongjing also bowed his hand and said, "The old man has a request, I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can agree." ”

"Oh, Doctor Zhang, please speak, I will try my best to do what I can." This promise is nonsense, but Liu Hou just likes to make this kind of promise that is the same as what he said and what he didn't.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, please also treat the people in the city well after you capture Changsha City."

Liu Hou understands Zhang Zhongjing's request, after all, Zhang Zhongjing once served as the county guard of Changsha, and his love for the people is well-known. Although he has been away from Changsha for many years, he still has the people here in his heart, and Liu Hou is not surprised that he is making this request now.

"Divine doctor, please rest assured, everywhere this palace goes, it will definitely appease the people, open a warehouse for disaster relief, and reduce taxes and servitude. This is obvious to all, and I believe you can see it along the way.

If you are still not at ease, after I capture Changsha City, you will still be the county guard, and then you will personally pacify the people? ”

Liu Hou rarely called himself the main palace, but now that he is growing up, he feels that he is about to start entering the role, and he is slowly learning to be a political character, so when he saw Zhang Zhongjing this time, he began to regard himself as the main palace.

"No, no, no, I won't do it, I'm still interested in medicine. As long as you promise to treat the people of Changsha well. Along the way, I have also seen that you are indeed very good to the people, and I am afraid that you will be angry with the people of Changsha and kill them more. If you can still treat the people of Changsha like you do to the people of other places, then I can rest assured. ”

At this time, Liu Hou understood that after Zhang Zhongjing came to the Shu camp, he saw that the Shu army had suffered heavy casualties, and he was worried that Liu Hou would be angry with the people of Changsha because of the huge losses of the Shu army, so he made an irrational move to slaughter the people in a fit of anger.

This fear is not unreasonable, and many generals in ancient times were angry with the people in the city because of the excessive losses during the siege, so they committed the brutal act of slaughtering the city.

"Doctor Zhang, you're too worried, this palace has never been a person who loves to kill and be brutal. These people are my people after me, how can I be against them. You can rest assured, after I invade the city, I will only kill the resisting Eastern Wu generals, and I will definitely not attack the unarmed people.

Even if it is a general of Eastern Wu, as long as they surrender, I will not kill them. Our army has always had a rule that surrender will not kill, if you don't believe it, you can go to the army and ask, even ordinary soldiers are familiar with this military regulation. ”

In this way, the old man was relieved. On behalf of hundreds of thousands of people in Changsha, I would like to thank His Royal Highness the Prince. Zhang Zhongjing bowed to Liu Hou again as a token of gratitude.

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Liu Hou also returned the salute.

"By the way, His Royal Highness the Prince, the old man came here this time mainly to understand the detailed process of treating malaria and some details of the crude drug law." After pleading for the common people, Zhang Zhongjing talked about his purpose of chasing thousands of miles to Changsha.

"It's easy to do, in fact, there is nothing mysterious about crude drug law, that is, some drugs will decompose or denature under high temperatures, so they will lose their efficacy, so we treat them at a lower temperature to keep them active.

I'm sure you know the process of penicillin extraction, and the principle is the same. Penicillin also breaks down at high temperatures. In fact, not only the high temperature, but also some medicines will be destroyed by the digestive juices in the stomach after digestion, which will become ineffective or greatly reduce the efficacy of the medicine.

Therefore, some medicines cannot be eaten, and can only be injected directly into the body through guò injection. However, the injected drug requires a high level of purity, and the slightest impurity can kill the patient.

This requires us to study more drug purification technology. The crude drug method is actually a kind of drug refining technology at low temperature, and if it is combined with the purification technology of injection drugs, it is believed that a new medical discipline will inevitably be developed.

But these are just some beautiful ideas, and a lot of people need to do a lot of experimentation and research. I'm worried that I don't have the research talent to do this. It just so happens that you are interested in this area, so it is better for you to preside over this research.

I will bring together the doctors who were involved in refining artemisinin to treat malaria and the researchers who cultivated and purified penicillin last time to form a research team to specialize in the purification technology of pharmacy and injections for injections. I don't know if you are willing to take on this important role? ”

Zhang Zhongjing was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "The old man has this intention.

"But I have a request." Liu Hou said to Zhang Zhongjing, who was overjoyed, at the right time.

"You say, you say." Zhang Zhongjing got what he wanted and is now happy, not to mention a request, even if Liu Hou makes ten requests, he will agree without hesitation.

"The request of this palace is that your original medical knowledge and experience are also very remarkable, and they cannot be discarded in vain, but they must be passed on to reliable people, so that they can be passed on and carried forward."

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, please rest assured, I have been teaching my "Treatise on Typhoid Fever" and "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" in the medical school for many years, and later accepted several graduate students as my personal disciples. They can now say that they all have my true biography.

Especially Dong Xiao, his medical skills are not under the old man, and over time, he will definitely be able to be better than the blue. ”

"That's good, since the divine doctor has such a promising disciple, why don't you recommend him to serve in front of our army. First, it can also find a career for them, and secondly, it can also give them more opportunities to save lives and help the injured, so as to hone their experience. ”

"In this way, the old man will thank the prince on behalf of my unscrupulous disciples." Hearing that he could give his disciples a good future, Zhang Zhongjing was also very happy. It's not easy to be a master these days, and a good master often has to worry about the future of his apprentices.

And Liu Hou is even happier, Zhang Zhongjing is old after all, it is indeed not suitable for him to run around with the army, but his young and strong disciples are different, and they are suitable for doing this.

There were also many graduates of medical schools who served as military doctors, but their level was still very different from Zhang Zhongjing's personal disciples.

This time he was able to recruit them, and Liu Hou thought that he had picked up a treasure. In fact, it is true, in fact, what Liu Hou doesn't know is that Dong Xiao is Dong Feng's father. And Dong Feng is one of the "Three Divine Doctors of Jian'an" who is as famous as Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing.

Therefore, with Dong Xiao's service, Liu Hou's medical care within three generations basically does not need to worry too much, and there are miracle doctor-level figures by his side.
