"Later, after trial and error, I found that using shochu instead of water for cold brew would be more effective. The cure rate can reach more than 90 out of 5! In fact, Zhu Hu didn't care whether this method was found by Liu Bowen or Zhu Zhen, he only cared about whether it worked or not.

"But as the weather got worse and worse, so did the number of malaria people, and even a few marquis fell ill. I found that passive treatment is not enough, and active prevention is the main thing. ”

"Of course. Prevention is always better than cure. Zhu Zhen agreed.

"Yes, but malaria is so pervasive." Zhu Hu sighed and said: "I have ordered the Epidemic Prevention Department to treat this disease with first-level epidemic prevention, and all patients must be isolated and treated, but it still cannot prevent the outbreak of malaria among the military and civilians." ”

"yes." Zhu Zhen comforted the fifth brother and said: "This disease is very complicated, our conditions are limited, and it is normal to be unclear about some things." ”

"No, I've pretty much figured it out." Zhu Hu opened a thick record book on the table, flipped it to the sixth child, and said:

"I first collected blood samples from thousands of soldiers, and then looked at them one by one with a microscope, and found that many seemingly healthy soldiers could still find the so-called malaria parasite in their blood."

After a pause, he said in a deep voice, "And then a few days later...... It was as short as seven days or as long as a month, and the soldiers also became ill one after another. What does this mean? ”

"Incubation period." Zhu Zhen said.

"Yes, the incubation period." Zhu Hu nodded heavily and said: "I found that the incubation period for falciparum malaria is seven to twelve days, and the incubation period for vivax malaria is thirteen to fifteen days, and the incubation period for malaria malaria is the longest, nearly a month. During the incubation period, patients have no obvious symptoms, but they still have Plasmodium parasites in their blood...... At this time, one mosquito is enough to infect a room of people. ”

"That's really hard to prevent." Zhu Zhen sighed and said: "I can only work mosquito prevention and control." ”

"I found that not only mosquitoes, but also bed bugs, fleas, and so on, but anything that can suck blood can spread malaria." Zhu Hu said slowly: And there is no shortage of these little guys in the barracks. ”

"Shave your head, take a bath, and sanitize......" Zhu Zhen sighed and said: "No, I will directly order, all soldiers and civilians should shave their heads, bathe with sulfur soap every day, and order everyone to maintain personal hygiene with the strictest requirements!" ”

"That's great." Zhu Hu praised it, and said inch by inch: "Of course, it would be better if there was a vaccine like cowpox." ”

"No, don't even think about it." Zhu Zhen's words extinguished his thoughts.

"Okay, then I'll go back and write you an epidemic prevention manual, you send it to the military and civilians, and order them to do it." Zhu Hu sighed, seeming very disappointed.

So much so that Zhu Zhen wanted to visit Mei Sizu and Jin Chaoxing, but he was too lazy to accompany him. Well, no matter how happy he is, he won't waste time on this kind of thing.

~~

When Zhu Zhen came out of the laboratory, Pan Yuanming couldn't help but whisper:

"In fact, the prevention and control effect this year has been very good, and after a year, only 10 percent of officers and soldiers have fallen ill. The number of serious cases and deaths is even more minimal, and the big ministers and others are unexpected. ”

"If my fifth brother hears this, I have to scold you for being inhumane." Zhu Zhen smiled and sighed lightly: "The benevolence of the doctor is different from the standard of our people. ”

"Yes." Pan Yuanming nodded, and said thoughtfully.

"Lord Zhou is really a living bodhisattva who saves suffering." Mei Sizu, who was on the hospital bed, said first when he saw Zhu Zhen was that he was grateful to the fifth child.

"yes." Jin Chaoxing also echoed: "When I got sick, I was all burned and confused, thinking that I was going to die, but fortunately, Zhou Wangye rejuvenated with his skillful hands and picked up this life." ”

"Why are you two so sick?" Looking at the bedridden two marquis, Zhu Zhen asked puzzledly: "Just now Lao Pan also said that there are very few seriously ill patients, and you two are among them." ”

"Alas, it's all dragging." Mei Sizu sighed and said: "When the ministers started to have a fever, they were just in time for Yang Tho to besiege the city, how could they let themselves fall?" I relied on my body to hold on, but I dragged it around and became more and more sick, and the siege was lifted over there, and I also fell ill here. ”

"It's a similar story with the last general." Jin Chaoxing smiled bitterly: "I fell ill on the way back to the aid with Deputy General Zuo, and if I return to Kunming, I can't do it." ”

"Don't do that in the future. If you are sick, treat it quickly, in case it is delayed, it is not always possible to save it. Zhu Zhen instructed the two.

"Yes." The two marquis were naturally grateful. "Don't worry, the prince, we will recover as soon as possible and come back at the mercy of the dispatch."

Zhu Zhen also instructed the two to have a good life and recuperate, and they must be completely good before being discharged from the hospital, and then they left the military hospital and returned to the Dian Palace.

~~

Back at the palace, Zhu Zhen didn't care about resting, simply washed his face, changed his dragon robe into a swallow robe, and came out to meet Feng Cheng and the others.

"Brother Feng's father is my fifth brother's father-in-law, and Brother Xie's father is my third brother's father-in-law. Lao Pan, we are also old acquaintances, we are all our own people, don't be polite. Come and talk while eating. Zhu Zhen beckoned the three of them to sit at the table.

After thanking His Highness, the three of them sat down to dine with him.

But the meal was not a pleasant one.

When Zhu Zhen left, Yunnan was calm, but it was only half a year, and he was directly full of wolf smoke and rebellion everywhere.

The emperor had such a high evaluation of Yunnan before, but in the second half of the year, he slapped his face, and with the emperor's temper, there must be no good fruit for the prince to eat. Otherwise, the prince would not have just gotten married, so he would have kicked him back to Yunnan.

A few of them were ready to be severely criticized by the prince, and even pushed to the end to be the head soldiers, but Zhu Zhen has always been kind and pleasant, and he didn't say a word to them, but the three of them couldn't really pretend that nothing had happened......

I finally got to His Highness to eat and drink to his heart's content, and picked up the tea bowl to rinse his mouth. Feng Cheng finally couldn't help but speak: "Lord Wang, you should scold us a few words, we are really uneasy to be polite to us all the time." ”

"Yes, Lord Wang, we have embarrassed you." Xie Xiong also said in a sullen voice: "You still punish us, let's get angry." ”

"That's right." Pan Yuanming belongs to the old comrades who have been rehired by Zhishi, and he can't pull down his face like two young people, but he also agrees.

"Am I scolding you, or punishing you, so that Yunnan can be safe?" Zhu Zhen looked at the three of them with a calm expression.

"Neither." The three shook their heads.

"Isn't that the end of it?" Zhu Zhen said lightly: "What are you doing in vain." ”

"If you can let the prince out of anger, we can feel better." Feng Cheng said busily.

"I know that the situation in Yunnan has taken a turn for the worse, and the most uncomfortable ones are a few of you. It's going to be a tough time, right? Zhu Zhen looked at the three of them and asked.

"That's it." The three of them nodded heavily and said: "Seeing the good situation erode in an instant, we have this torment, this discomfort, and this self-blame in our hearts, we just don't want to live anymore." ”
