Jiao Xin already knew that the man in front of him was King Zhou of the Ming Dynasty, so the wound on his head was in vain.
However, he was not angry in his heart, so what if you are the prince, I am the imperial physician!
Treating diseases and saving people is my old profession. If you, a prince, don't enjoy the glory and wealth at home, why are you here messing around?
What's more, I am an imperial envoy sent by the imperial court to take charge of the Dongxiang miasma. Why should I listen to you?
King Zhou smiled faintly and said: "Isn't it Imperial Physician Jiao? I would like to ask you for advice. According to your opinion, how can this miasma be eliminated?"
Jiao Xin knew that he would not get any good results if he offended Prince Zhou. However, he had the arrogance of a scholar welling up in his head, so he did not care much.
Anyway, I have already been offended, so even if I apologize now, it may not have any effect.
Just go head-on and at least not lose to others in the field you are good at.
Maybe Prince Zhou was impressed by his talent and the matter just now would be forgotten...
"It is recorded in the Secrets of Waitai that miasma and malaria are divided into two parts, which are actually the same. They may be cold first and then hot, or hot then cold. Lingnan is called miasma, Jiangbei is called malaria, and Lantian is located in Jiangbei, so it is malaria.
.”
While Jiao Xin was talking, he felt a stream of blood dripping from his forehead, and had to stretch out a hand to hold his scalp.
"Malaria can be divided into malaria ovale, malaria vivax, and malaria malaria malaria malaria. These days, I have visited the people and observed that the symptoms of the people here are mostly chills, headaches, high fevers, and then severe anemia, which is vivax malaria.
"
"It is recorded in "Su Wen" that the Yellow Emperor asked Qi Bo: All diseases and malaria are born from the wind, so what is the reason why it is caused by wind? Qi Bo replied: The Qi is deep and the inside is thinner than Yin. Yang Qi only develops and Yin evil is present.
"Yin and Yang can't compete with each other, so they do it by taking advantage of the sun."
King Zhou felt a little impatient when he heard this, so he asked: "I have said a lot of things, which are just words for doctors to buy donkeys. I just want to ask you, how to treat this disease?"
Jiao Xin, however, put on a proud attitude and continued: "There are many ways to treat malaria. The Bupleurum Guijian Decoction in "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" uses Bupleurum, Scutellaria baicalensis, cassia twig, dried ginger, and licorice to reconcile the exterior and interior.
To warm the yang and remove evil, Trichosanthes trichosanthes and oyster can loosen knots and soften hardness. Shuqi or Changshan can be added to dispel evil and cut off malaria."
"The recipe for Shan Mi malaria recorded in "Waitai Mi Yao" is to boil soybean seeds, grind rhinoceros juice and take it, and add kudzu root juice at the same time. If it is very hot, it will be about as big as two dates with Zixue, drink it with water
, it is also good to make Huanglong Decoction together, and you can take three to two liters of each."
"There is also Dabupleurum decoction, two and a half qian of Bupleurum, three qian of rhubarb, one qian of Citrus aurantium, two qian of red peony root, two qian of skullcap, and two qian of pinellia. Take one serving, two minutes of water, five slices of ginger, and one qian of red dates.
Take one piece, simmer for one hour, take it well before eating. It can cure typhoid fever that persists for more than ten days, evil heat trapped in the body, body heat and irritability, delirium, difficulty in defecation, and tingling pain around the navel."
After reciting the medical book, Jiao Xin raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and then said: "As for the Artemisia annua mentioned by Your Highness, according to the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica", Artemisia annua has the effects of reducing deficiency heat, cooling blood, relieving summer heat, and treating malaria.
, I dare to ask, Your Highness, are you planning to make Artemisia Qinqingdan Decoction?"
King Zhou did not comment on this statement and asked: "Do you still know about Haoqin Qingdan Decoction?"
"That's natural!"
The look of pride on Jiao Xin's face became more and more obvious, and he shook his head and said: "This Artemisia Qingdan Decoction is made from half to two qian of Qinghao Nao, three qian of Danzhuru, half of Xian Banxia, and three qian of Red Fuling."
, take half to three qian of Qingziqin, half a qian of raw Citrus aurantium, half a qian of Chen Guangpi, and 3 qian of Jasper powder, decoct it in water and take it.”
King Zhou nodded and said, "You are quite good at endorsements, but you just don't know how to be a good doctor?"
Jiao Xin didn't hear the sarcasm in these words at all, and continued to show off: "Haoqin Qingdan Decoction can treat Shaoyang triple burner with dampness and heat depression, poor Qi movement, chest pain, nausea, cold and heat like malaria. Use it.
The miasma that came to Dongxiang is symptomatic, but now sixty-seven out of ten people in Dongxiang are infected. I wonder how many medicinal materials His Highness has prepared and how many people can be cured?"
"If I remember correctly, His Highness just ordered people to buy Artemisia annua. Could it be that other medicinal materials have been prepared? There are not one thousand but eight hundred people infected with the disease right now, but I don't know how many have been prepared by Your Highness?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
King Zhou suddenly burst out laughing, and everyone present was at a loss.
Qiu Yuan thought that King Zhou was being squeezed by Jiao Xin and didn't know what to say, so he hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "Mr. Jiao, please don't be rude to His Highness!"
Seeing this, Jiao Xin's face became even more arrogant and he said: "Your Majesty will not give up, so you sent me here to eliminate the miasma..."
"Only you?"
Before Jiao Xin finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by King Zhou, and his face suddenly became ugly.
After all, I am also an official of the imperial court, a doctor of the eighth rank, and a special envoy sent by the emperor. Even if you are a vassal king, if you don't give me face, you must give face to the emperor and the court, right?
King Zhou took a step forward and said: "Since the emperor sent you to eliminate the miasma, why don't you tell me what you have done?"
Jiao Xin suddenly blushed and said: "The medicine prepared by the official is effective, but... the common people move around each other and the infection is repeated, so it is difficult to cure..."
King Zhou sneered and said: "So, the Taiyuan Hospital can only endorse this recipe and that medicinal material. It is very familiar with it. It really wants to cure diseases and save people, but it is helpless."
"I... lower the rank..."
Jiao Xin didn't know what to do for a moment. His forehead twitched and he said, "Does your Highness have any good ideas?"
King Zhou solemnly said: "For the miasma, Artemisia annua is enough."
Hearing this, Jiao Xin once again showed an arrogant expression on his face and said: "Although your Highness's Haoqin Qingdan Decoction can drive away colds and eliminate malaria, my official thinks that this prescription is not as effective as Dabuihu Decoction, and the dosage is very large. I don't think so."
If we want to cure millions of people at the same time, where can we purchase so many medicinal materials?"
“Who told you to use Artemisia Qingdan Decoction?”
"Your Highness didn't mean to use Artemisia annua..."
"I said to use Artemisia annua, but I didn't mention Artemisia annua Qingdan Decoction!"
Jiao Xin was a little puzzled and said: "This official is stupid, please give me a clear explanation from your highness!"
The king of Zhou then said: "You imperial doctors, you memorize a series of prescriptions. I would like to ask, have you used all those prescriptions? What is the effect? Just now you mentioned Shennong's Materia Medica, Suwen, and Typhoid Fever.
Regarding the secrets of Hewaitai, is there no other way to eliminate malaria in the world?"
The arrogant look on Jiao Xin's face slowly disappeared, but he still said bravely: "Three generations of imperial doctors have studied medical books since childhood. Miasma and malaria are not some difficult and complicated diseases. These prescriptions are enough.
"
King Zhou shook his head helplessly and said: "The "Behind the Elbow" written by Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty records five common prescriptions for treating cold and fever malaria, including the method of soaking Artemisia annua in water and twisting the juice. You, a family of imperial doctors, actually
