Chapter 174 Military supply prescription

Zhu Lian stood up directly and hummed softly: "Qingyun, let's go!"

Chen Zhao and Wang Daquan, who were standing at the door, were selectively blind. It was not until Zhu Lian left that they heaved a sigh of relief.

Chen Zhao quickly stepped forward and asked cautiously: "When does the prince plan to visit Yue Fei?"

"My subordinate went to take a look earlier and found that Yue Fei was already a little confused."

In order to escort the rebel leader of the Ever Victorious Army, Yue Fei was hit by several arrows. Although he avoided his vital points, his physical condition declined sharply due to blood loss and the fact that his wounds were not treated in time.

Zhao Huan had no time to visit Yue Fei before, but now he is not in a hurry.

He asked slowly: "Do you have a fever?"

Chen Zhao nodded repeatedly: "Yes! And the fever is not serious!"

After receiving a positive answer, Zhao Huan was basically certain that Yue Fei's wound had been infected with bacteria. If not treated properly, it could range from amputation to death.

Zhao Huan immediately called Changfu and asked in a deep voice: "How did the doctor diagnose and treat Yue Fei?"

Changfu quickly recalled what happened: "It seems to be nothing special. It was just the same as usual treatment of trauma, cleaning the wound, applying medicine and bandaging."

At Zhao Huan's signal, Changfu took the prescription prescribed by the doctor.

When Zhao Huan examined the prescription, Chen Zhao poked Wang Daquan's arm with his elbow and whispered.

"I can't tell that the prince actually knows medical skills..."

"What else in this world can the prince not know?"

Wang Daquan didn't look sideways and replied angrily: "You talk too much!"

Although these two people cooperated well with each other in serving Zhao Huan, they were extremely difficult to deal with in private.

Chen Zhao made a "tsk" sound in his mouth and looked at Wang Daquan with a look of disapproval.

At this moment, Zhao Huan had already handed the prescription to Changfu, and Yun Danfeng said lightly: "It is indeed a serious medicine for bruises, but external application is not enough."

"Go to the drug store and buy two taels of Houttuynia cordata. Crush it and squeeze out the juice. Let Yue Fei drink it directly."

"Two dollars each time, once in the morning, noon and evening, for five consecutive days."

As far as Zhao Huan knows, Houttuynia cordata is a natural antibiotic. It is non-toxic and has no contraindications for its use.

The Houttuynia cordata contained in it is particularly effective in dealing with Staphylococcus aureus.

Once this bacteria enters the blood, it can cause a high fever that persists.

Changfu stood in front of him with a blank look on his face.

"My lord...what is Houttuynia cordata?"

Zhao Huan then remembered that there are many names for Houttuynia cordata. Not only do they have different names in different places, but even the names recorded in medical books are also very different.

Zhao Huan tried hard to recall the experience he gained from talking to the old Chinese doctor: "Have you ever heard of Cen Cao?"

Changfu shook his head, still confused.

"What about Zucai?"

"Stinky vegetables?"

"Nine-section lotus?"

"Holy crap, do you have to ask me to go to the drug store to screen them one by one? This Houttuynia cordata has many uses, and it must be available in the drug store. That's the name..."

"By the way, have you ever heard of amaranth?"

Changfu, who was still confused just now, slapped his thigh: "Hey! It turns out to be a wild cabbage. Your Majesty, let's see you go around in such a big circle."

"I'm going to go to the drugstore now, but... you may not be able to buy fresh amaranth. Be safe and send someone to the mountains to pick some."

Zhao Huan thought it made sense and was about to give the order when he suddenly remembered something and quickly swallowed the words that were on his lips.

"Changfu, don't talk too much when you go to the drug store."

"The news that Houttuynia Cordata can cure trauma must not be leaked."

Changfu immediately understood Zhao Huan's intention, grinned, turned around and ran away quickly.

Chen Zhao also reacted very quickly and hurriedly came forward.

"Your Majesty, the Houttuynia cordata you are talking about... is also the waterweed. Can it cure arrow wounds?"

"As the saying goes, apricots and plums are not divided into different families. My subordinates have also studied medical skills for a period of time. Amaranthus is mostly used to treat heat stroke, subdued heat and depressive disorder."

"There are also doctors who use it to treat dysentery."

"But I've never heard that wildflower can also treat arrow wounds."

Of course Chen Zhao did not dare to question Zhao Huan, but he needed to be rigorous in practicing medicine, otherwise someone might lose his life if he was not careful.

Besides, Yue Fei is Zhao Huan's arm, so if he makes any mistakes, he will regret it.

Faced with Chen Zhao's question, Zhao Huan rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "You can pull me down. You're really going to put money on your own face."

"Every doctor must be a scholar, but a scholar is not necessarily a doctor."

"I'm afraid you only read the title page of the medical book you studied and then threw it away, right? It's not embarrassing enough!"

"There are so many medical books in the world. Practicing medicine and asking for medicine is also a matter of experience."

"Different doctors use the same medicine differently."

"It is recorded in "Rihuazi Materia Medica" that amaranth can treat malignant sores."

"It is stated in the "Shen Nong Baicao Jing" that it can cure dysentery."

"The Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases says that it can treat snake and insect venom."

"So, which book do you believe?"

Chen Zhao looked embarrassed. His so-called study of medical books was just a casual remark. Who would have expected that Zhao Huancai had actually done a comprehensive study of medical books.

Li Kui met Li Gui, and the scene was extremely embarrassing.

Fortunately, Chen Zhao was thick-skinned and just kept giggling: "Hey, my subordinates will believe whatever the prince says."

Zhao Huan snorted lightly, not bothering to share the knowledge with Chen Zhao, and said seriously: "All the medical books are correct, but the records are not comprehensive."

"As the saying goes, you will never learn until you are old. Just reading books is not enough. You must also combine practical experience to find your own set of methods."

"I have never said that Houttuynia cordata can cure arrow wounds, so you can just treat it as an auxiliary medicine."

What Zhao Huan said was mysterious and mysterious, but actually he didn't know how to explain it at all.

Many people, young and old, read medical books, and they all swallowed them wholeheartedly, only learning a little bit.

If we combine it with Western medicine, we don't know how to explain it. Just one "bacteria" is enough to give Zhao Huan a headache.

But no matter what, both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine show that Houttuynia cordata can play an antibacterial role.

As long as this natural antibiotic is used as one of the combat readiness supplies, the survival rate of soldiers can be greatly improved.

After all, arrow wounds are not terrible, what is terrible is wound infection.

Unfortunately, these days, there is no concept of bacteria. As long as it is used properly, Zhao Huan can make a lot of money, which can not only benefit the country and the people, but also solve Yizhou's financial problems, killing two birds with one stone.

He glanced at Chen Zhao and Wang Daquan, and said solemnly: "The use of wild vegetables to treat arrow wounds must not be spread to outsiders!"

Although the two of them didn't understand what kind of medicine Zhao Huan was selling in his gourd, they still nodded knowingly.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I have no merits except my good mouth," Chen Zhao vowed.

In the end, Wang Daquan said directly: "My subordinates don't have a mouth at all. They only listen, not speak."
