Gu Xun smiled when he heard the words and said comfortingly, "There are so many good things in the world that have the best of both worlds. It is a blessing to have such an effect."
What's the pity for Nian Duan?
In fact, it is a pity that even with such a tree, it cannot save a few more patients.
The branches and leaves of the hibiscus sacred tree are indeed powerful in medicinal effects, but their effects are far different from the mildness of the jade leaves and flowers, and are much more overbearing and dangerous.
She was able to swallow the test medicine directly because she was depleted and suffered serious losses. Now she relied solely on Gu Xun's energy to survive, so she didn't have to worry about the overbearing and rude effects of the medicine.
But for other patients, we must find ways to use auxiliary medicines to neutralize the power of the medicine so that patients can safely absorb and digest it.
Although I have only briefly tried it once, based on Nianduan’s experience, I am afraid that ordinary medicinal materials cannot achieve this goal.
We still need rare medicinal materials that are expensive and have no market value.
In other words, 99% of people cannot afford it.
Nianduan is not a crazy doctor who is keen on incurable diseases. For her, treating more people is her most important pursuit.
Moreover, in this era where colds and fevers are fatal, it is difficult to say who is more deadly and dangerous than cancer or fever.
The importance of human lives cannot be calculated based on the number of people. Likewise, patients should not be classified based on severity or difficulty.
Therefore, to Nianduan, the hibiscus sacred tree is just a special plant that makes people happy.
Well...for now, it's still her life-saving straw.
After a brief sigh, Gu Xun said to Nianduan, "You already understand the problem with this thing, so what we need to solve now is how to resolve the overbearing medicinal power so that the human body can absorb it freely."
"To completely cure your disease, you need more than just one or two leaves."
"My true energy can help you dissolve some of the power of the medicine, but after all, there is an upper limit, and what you need is probably far beyond this upper limit."
Nian Duan nodded slightly. After trying the properties of the medicine, she basically knew it.
Gu Xun continued, "My previous research on it focused on Han Fei's inherent deficiencies. Your current situation is somewhat similar to his, but it is fundamentally different after all, so I basically have to start all over again."
"But the war between Qin and Chu is about to begin. I have some things that I have to deal with. I can only try my best to spare time to help you, so you mainly have to rely on yourself."
"It doesn't matter, the help you gave me is enough." Nian Duan glanced at Gu Xun gratefully and replied.
"Hmm..." Gu Xun nodded and reminded, "The vitality in these branches and leaves is lost far faster than normal medicinal materials. Basically, they will turn into ordinary branches and leaves that are completely ineffective within three to five days. They can only be sealed in an ice room.
Only in this way can the loss of its effectiveness be prevented."
"So you can only use it as you go."
As he spoke, the ice cube he cut off for the second time also melted, and handed the sacred tree branches and leaves to Nian Duan.
"These should be enough for you these days. I will pick them up again in three days."
Nianduan frowned slightly, "It's so strange..."
She couldn't help but shook her head and sighed slightly.
Being so difficult to store...the use value of this thing is further reduced.
"Anyway, thank you very much."
Gu Xun waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Nothing, anyway, you go and study it first."
"I still have some things to deal with, so I'll leave first. If you need any medicinal materials, just go to the treasury and find them yourself."
"If the house doesn't have it or it's not enough, just ask me if I'm here. If I'm not there, just ask Jingbao for my official order and go to Xianyang Gongtai Hospital to get it."
"Hmm..." Nianduan responded softly and nodded.
………………
Zhang Han bowed to Gu Xun, bowed his hands, and said hello, "I have finally met you, sir."
Gu Xun waved his hand, signaling him not to deal with those useless things, and went straight to the point and asked, "How is it? Did you find anything over there in Chen Di?"
Gu Xun had previously specially asked Zhang Han to keep an eye on Lord Changping who was demoted to Chendi.
At present, the Qin Dynasty has begun to discuss the strategy for the war against Chu. Gu Xun felt that Lord Changping should also take action, so he called Zhang Han and planned to ask about the situation.
Facing Gu Xun's inquiry, Zhang Han hesitated for a moment and then replied:
"My lord, at present... there is nothing unusual about Chang Ping-kun."
"The most noteworthy thing is that Lord Changwen made a request to the king and also went to Chendi."
It stands to reason that Lord Changping, the leading figure among the Qin officials of the Chu clan, has been demoted from the center of the imperial court. Lord Changwen should take over the banner honestly and hold the banner for his brother for the time being.
After all, if both brothers leave the center of power, the power of the old Chu faction will definitely be greatly squeezed out by other factions.
But he still made a request to temporarily transfer Chen Di.
Of course, a mere piece of old land is not enough for the two prime ministers of Qin to govern it together.
Lord Changping was responsible for governing Chen Di and appeasing the people of old Chu, while Lord Changwen went there to prepare for the mobilization of the army.
No matter how many troops Qin finally decided to send, the most suitable route for sending troops would always be the Chen land.
As for why Ying Zheng agreed... Just as Lord Changping was the most suitable candidate to appease the people of old Chu, Lord Changwen, who was born in the Chu Kingdom's official office, was the most suitable person to handle matters in this area where the capital of the old Chu Kingdom was located.
Ying Zheng has no reason to disagree. The worst thing is... just arrange a few more people to keep an eye on it.
Hearing this, Gu Xun narrowed his eyes and murmured, "Mr. Changwen is gone too?"
Zhang Han nodded, "I already set off for Chendi two days ago."
"Well..." Gu Xun rubbed his chin and asked again, "Apart from that, is there nothing else wrong?"
Zhang Han frowned, thought for a while, then slowly shook his head and said, "There is nothing obviously wrong."
"But..."
"But what?"
Zhang Han said uncertainly, "General, I feel like something is not right, but...according to the analysis of the information collected by the Shadow Guard, there is indeed no problem."
During this period of time, although Lord Changping did not appear much, his governance of Chendi has not fallen behind.
Generally speaking, under his governance, the Chen land is prosperous, the people are living a good life, everything about farming and mulberry farming is going well, and business and trade have increased a lot, and there is basically no problem to be found.
In Zhang Han's opinion, if Mr. Changping has a problem, the most likely reason is that he met some people he shouldn't have met in private.
With his ability, it is not impossible to do such a small trick without telling the Shadow Guard.
But there is no sign that this situation exists, and you cannot assume that there is something wrong with him just because he is capable.
If we have to deal with the problem of abandoning food due to choking, the top ministers of the Qin State will no longer need to be hired, and the government can be abandoned.
Moreover, it is difficult for such small actions to really harm Qin.
Reality is not a strategy game, you just click on the strategy and it will produce results.
There are no soldiers, no generals, and no strong execution force. No matter how many people sit in a secret room and plot, they can only plan some trivial things.
At least, it must be a trivial matter for the upcoming battle between Qin and Chu, in which both sides will invest a total of no less than 400,000 troops.
