"After completing the consultation with Mr. Yao, I will take you to a place!"
Doctor Sun was different from his usual playful and joking demeanor. His expression was quite serious. His serious look made Li Sixu a little nervous.
"Old man, you're not going to find a place to sell me while I'm out of the palace, are you?"
"There are only a few taels of meat in the body, so it is worthless. Even if I want to sell it, I have to fatten it up and sell it."
Dr. Sun was taking out a medical book from his sleeve, tapping her little head as a punishment for her nonsense, and then giving her the medical book.
"Old man Du asked me to give it to you!"
Dr. Sun said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "Old man Du said that Du's pulse diagnosis technique is unparalleled in the world, and he put all his praises on it. In my opinion, it is not enough. You can just read it to relieve your boredom. Don't take it too seriously."
Li Sixu thought that her master, Dr. Sun, was really a jealous old man, but even if he competed with Dr. Du in terms of medical skills, he would still give her the secret book of Du's pulse diagnosis as soon as possible.
Seeing his angry look, Li Sixu couldn't help laughing for a moment.
She smiled playfully to make him happy: "Sisi secretly learned Dr. Du's pulse diagnosis technique, and then integrated it into a comprehensive one to learn from the best of others, so as to strengthen the inheritance of Sun's medical skills!"
This statement is very useful to Old Man Sun!
He no longer hates Old Man Du for robbing his good disciple, and feels that he has earned the right to do so.
Yesterday, after Li Sixu performed acupuncture on Yao Chong, he fed him freshly kneaded Artemisia annua juice. When leaving Wangji Temple, Li Sixu told Yao Yi to feed Mr. Yao another kneaded juice before going to bed at night. Artemisia annua juice.
Yao Yi followed suit!
Yao Chong's symptoms of chills and high fever no longer recurred, except for some headaches and fatigue. After struggling for so many days, he finally had a good night's sleep.
By the time Dr. Sun took Li Sixu into Wangji Temple, Yao Chong was in much better spirits.
Yao Yizheng was waiting in front of the bed to feed his father porridge. When he saw Li Sixu following Sun Yizheng into the house, he stood up to greet him with enthusiasm: "The imperial doctor Zheng and the little miracle doctor are here!"
Yao Yi put down the porridge bowl and bowed respectfully: "The imperial doctor is on a trip with the little miracle doctor."
"Young master Yao, you don't have to be polite. Sisi just learned some superficial acupuncture skills from the Sun family. You should never be a little miracle doctor."
Li Sixu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Did Mr. Yao have any more chills and high fever?"
I heard that the medical sage during the Taizong period was proficient in decoction, acupuncture, mantras, talismans, and guidance massage. He was a famous all-rounder and could always cure diseases with acupuncture.
She just learned some basic acupuncture skills from the Sun family, but the little princess is already so powerful. If she inherits the Sun family's medical skills, who knows how powerful she will be?
Yao Yi was even more in awe of Li Sixu and replied: "To tell you the princess, my father no longer had chills or fever, nor did he vomit anymore. He finally had a good sleep."
"Yes, Dr. Lao and the little princess are treating me. I feel much better. I walked in front of the gate of hell for a while, but the little princess forcefully pulled me back."
After a good night's sleep and another bowl of porridge, Yao Chong felt much better. With loving eyes, he pulled Li Sixu to talk.
After taking her pulse, Li Sixu said: "Actually, your malaria has not completely recovered yet. You need daily injections, combined with artemisia annua juice as medicine, to be completely cured."
Malaria is the most recurring disease. Even if you are temporarily cured, there is still the possibility of recurrence, which is why it is a headache.
When she said this, Yao Chong cooperated and let her perform the acupuncture.
Li Sixu was sweating profusely from applying acupuncture on him. Yao Chong hurriedly asked Yao Yi to order his servants to get a clean handkerchief to clean her hands and wipe the sweat.
"I believe that Artemisia annua juice has miraculous effects when used as medicine."
Even though Yao Chong was still ill, he was thinking about the people all over the world. He discussed with Li Sixu: "Can the little princess ask the Imperial Hospital and the Imperial Medical Office to promote the use of artemisia annua juice as a medicine, so as to benefit the people all over the world?"
"Artemisia annua juice does have an anti-malarial effect against common malaria and falciparum malaria, but using artemisia annua as medicine requires fresh juice to be effective. If it is boiled, it will lose its efficacy. After Sisi returned to the palace yesterday, she had already administered it to the adults. I reported the treatment process to my father, and planned to use Artemisia annua to develop a magical medicine to treat malaria, and make it into tablets or potions for easy storage."
Industry specializing in surgery!
He was very good at managing government affairs, but it was up to the imperial doctor Zheng and the little princess to develop medicines.
Yao Chong was overjoyed to hear that Li Sixu had informed the emperor about using Artemisia annua as medicine to treat malaria.
Dr. Sun was honored that the good disciple he had accepted was so loved by the virtuous ministers of the world: "Not only that, yesterday my disciple and her senior brother went to Song Qing Pharmacy to find fresh Artemisia annua for Yao Yao to use as medicine. The owner of the medicine shop had talked about malaria, and he also found out that people who live close to the city’s drainage channels are more likely to get the disease, so he concluded that the onset of malaria and intestinal tract disease is most likely related to mosquitoes and flies.”
"Really?"
Yao Chong was shocked, but felt that it made sense: "If this disease is really caused by mosquitoes and flies, open ditches in densely populated areas should be changed into culverts, and the imperial court will send people to disinfect mosquitoes and flies in the city every few days."
"My disciple thinks so too."
Dr. Sun's expression showed some unconcealable pride: "So your Majesty has sent Imperial Physician Du and Zi Qing to investigate the matter today with the officials from the Imperial Medical Office. Today, only the minister and the princess are here to consult you. Please bear with me."
Yao Chong already liked Li Sixu very much. When he heard Sun Yizheng's words, he looked at her in a different way. Those deep eyes were full of energy.
"I think that the Tang Dynasty is really lucky to have the little princess!"
In the vast Tang Dynasty, she was as small as a drop in the ocean. How could she deserve such praise from Lord Yao?
During the Song and Qing Dynasties, he collected various miraculous prescriptions and prepared decoctions for the people for free. Li Sixu was determined to make such a strange person a model for the Tang Dynasty.
"Sisi cannot afford such praise from your lord. In Sisi's heart, a wise minister like your lord is the most dazzling pearl of the Tang Dynasty."
Li Sixu explained with a smile: "Actually, the discovery that the onset of malaria may be related to mosquitoes and flies is the credit of the owner of the medicine shop in the Song and Qing Dynasties. He would cook different decoctions at low prices according to which diseases were more frequent in Chang'an City every season. Selling them took a lot of pressure off the court, so he analyzed where malaria symptoms frequently occurred among the patients who never bought the decoction."
Yao Chong was surprised to hear Li Sixu's story about how the Song Qing Dynasty asked poor people to write IOUs. At the end of the year, some people couldn't repay the money for medicine and simply tore up the IOUs.
"So there is such a strange person in Chang'an City? After I recover, I will go and meet him!"
After Li Sixu guided Mr. Yao's acupoints with gold needles, Sun Yizheng re-prescribed the medicine based on his gradually improving symptoms.
After leaving Wangji Temple, Mr. Sun said mysteriously that he would take Li Sixu to a place. At first, the carriage was still walking in the busy city, but gradually it entered a deserted alley.
Seeing the carriage go further and further to a secluded river embankment, Li Si Xu looked at Sun Yizheng, who was trying to get away with it: "Old man, where are you going to take Si Si?"
