Whenever a couple lives together, there must be one who is strong and the other who is weak.
If both of them are strong, this life will definitely be noisy all the time! If both of them are weak, it will be a big problem for the family and they will be bullied to death...
This simple principle is actually very useful when it comes to being an official!
There must be two chief officials in a place. These two chief officials must depend on each other, cooperate with each other, and restrict each other. This is just like a husband and wife living together.
Yuan Dake, the governor of Hanzhong, had a strong temper, but he was also resourceful! And Zhang Bao, the city guard, was smooth and a little tenacious! The two of them were strong and soft together, and they were a match made in heaven!
On the way to the west of the city, Zhang Bao coaxed and deceived and tried his best to find out Xiao Han's details! And this information was passed to Yuan Dake in the blink of an eye. When the group arrived at the west of the city
, Yuan Dake has become more and more respectful to Xiao Han!
A capable person will only respect a capable person!
Originally, Yuan Dake thought that Xiao Han was so young, and his position as a marquis was due to his family's blessings. Now that he knew that Xiao Han got it all on his own, this fundamental change made him treat Xiao Han more and more.
became curious.
To the west of the city, a large hospital is hidden behind a patch of green trees! It has green bricks and red tiles, and is full of ancient charm! If Yuan Dake hadn’t pointed it out, Xiao Han would never have imagined that this was a place to house patients!
"Prince Yuan, does this need heavy guarding? Aren't you afraid that the people inside will run out and cause a greater disaster?" Xiao Han, who was standing under a big willow tree, looked at the courtyard in front, frowning and asked Yuan beside him.
Could have.
Yuan Dake cupped his hands and said with a wry smile: "Master Hou, everyone here is already sick! Run out? Where to run? There are doctors guarding you inside. When you go out, there is nothing.
! And these people are all from this city and have other relatives at home. Even for them, these people will work hard to survive there! "
"That's it." Xiao Han nodded after listening to Yuan Dake's explanation. He thought that this should also be related to the fact that the epidemic was not vicious. If the people here knew that they were bound to die, how much sense would they have?
It's really hard to say.
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly a group of people came from the street on the other side. They were in groups of two, and they seemed to be carrying something in the middle. When they came to the door of the yard, they stopped without stopping.
He pushed the door straight and walked in.
"What do these people do?!" Xiao Han watched these people go in, and couldn't help but feel shocked. He quickly walked a few steps and came closer. Looking in through the open courtyard door, it turned out that it was dinner time.
These people are carrying meals into the yard!
Patients are also human beings, and they naturally need to eat. But seeing that the person who delivers the food has no protection or avoidance, and just carries the food directly to the hospital, is he not afraid of contracting the plague?
Yuan Dake seemed to have noticed Xiao Han's doubts, and pointed at the door and said, "Don't be surprised, Marquis Xiao. After these few days of exploration, the doctors also found that the epidemic was not too severe. They spent time with the patients day and night.
, but he did not contract the disease. On the contrary, people would get sick from time to time in other parts of the city. The Taoist priest of Qingxinguan said that there was a god of plague wandering around, and the terrified people did not dare to go out."
"The theories about ghosts and gods are so absurd and bizarre, how can you just believe them!" Xiao Han actually said this with a guilty conscience. A good young man who was born in the new society and grew up under the red flag really shouldn't believe in ghosts and gods. But since he came to the Tang Dynasty inexplicably
After that, Xiao Han's atheism became somewhat looser. Science doesn't seem to be able to explain everything!
Yuan Dake accepted the instruction, and then led Xiao Han and his party into the courtyard gate. After crossing the high threshold, Xiao Han was the first to smell the strong smell of Chinese medicine filling the courtyard! Following this familiar smell,
Looking at Yaoxiang, there was a row of soup stoves in the corridor not far away, and several people were busy adding firewood to decoction.
The courtyard in front of him was very quiet. Even if the governor of the city came here, it would not cause any disturbance. The haggard patient just raised his head and looked at Yuan Dake, and then went to get food. It was just the governor, every day for the past two days.
Everyone can see it, it’s no longer unusual.
Not in a hurry to go down, Xiao Han first stood on the high steps, looking down at the people in the courtyard, but he neither asked questions nor checked their pulse, and just watched quietly.
"What is Xiao Hou doing? Don't you say he is a miracle doctor? You are all here, why don't you go down and take a closer look?" Zhang Bao and Yuan Dake looked at each other, and the same question arose in their minds. It's just that they were hindered by the
Identity cannot be stated clearly.
"Prince Yuan? Have you noticed that most of the sick people are from poor families?" Just when some people were about to lose their patience with Xiao Han, Xiao Han suddenly spoke.
"This..." Yuan Dake was stunned and subconsciously looked at the patients in the yard. Under Xiao Han's reminder, he suddenly discovered that the sick people were really poor people in the city! As for the wealthy families, they actually
Not one!
"Hey, it's true! Is this epidemic still picking on people?!" Zhang Bao exclaimed in surprise.
Xiao Han shook his head, looked around, and then went straight to the place where the medicine was cooked. He picked up a handful of medicinal materials and looked at them, and then said: "Diseases are unconscious, so they naturally won't pick on people! But different people's behavior habits,
But it will affect the occurrence of diseases! In my opinion, the epidemic in the city this time is probably malaria! I don’t know if the medicine here is suitable for the disease."
"Habit? Malaria?!"
When Yuan Dake and the people around him heard this name, they all looked at a loss, as if they had never heard of this disease. Of course, Xiao Han was not surprised by this. Malaria was just a name of later generations. How did he know that this thing was in ancient times?
What a weird name it would be called.
Xiao Han threw down the medicinal materials in his hand and sighed. Just as he was about to explain something to a few people, he suddenly heard someone beside him say suspiciously: "Malaria? But is it cold malaria or warm malaria in "Huangdi Neijing, Su Wen"?"
"Who is talking?!" Xiao Han was surprised that there was someone here who knew about malaria. He followed the voice and found that the person who spoke was a middle-aged man making medicine!
"Are you the doctor here? What's your name?" Xiao Han walked over in surprise and asked.
The middle-aged man who had just spoken looked a little downcast, with disheveled hair and unkempt beard. Seeing Xiao Han asking him something, he stood up unsteadily, casually cupped his hands and said: "Young man Yelu, he is just a village doctor.
"
"Wild donkey? Do you know malaria?!" Xiao Han doesn't care what kind of wild donkey or deer he is now! As long as he knows malaria and knows how to treat it, that's enough! After all, Xiao Han only knows that Cinchona frost is
The miracle medicine for treating malaria. When Emperor Kangxi got malaria, he was cured by the missionaries’ Cinchona frost! But in this era, where can Xiao Han find the Cinchona frost tree?
