"Young Master Xia doesn't know?" Imperial Physician He turned his head to look at Xia Hongsheng. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xia Hongsheng scratched his head and said, "It's true that I haven't heard of this name, and it's a bit wrong." Doctor Ho told me that I may have heard of such a disease, but it is not called by this name. ”

Doctor He nodded, and while walking, he explained to Xia Hongsheng: "This pea sores are a kind of acne, and the spread is very fast, once a person gets this disease, the high fever does not go away, and then the sores on the head, face and body, must be around the turn, like a fire wound, all carry **, follow the decision, not cured, and the drama will die." Those who are poorly cured will have purple and black sores and will be extinguished at the end of their lives. Once this pox poison is infected, nine times out of ten people will die. If you are lucky enough to recover from the disease, you will not suffer from the disease again in the future, but your face will be ruined and full of pits and you will not be able to look at them directly. ”

After that, Imperial Physician He asked again, "Have you ever heard of this disease?" ”

Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Mazi, isn't this Wang Mazi! Xia Hongsheng slapped his thigh: "Smallpox!" ”

"Smallpox?" Imperial Physician He and Sun Simiao turned their heads together and looked at Xia Hongsheng.

"Does a person with this disease have signs of chills, high fever, fatigue, headache, aching limbs and lower back, convulsions and coma when the body temperature rises sharply?" Xia Hongsheng asked: "After that, the patient's skin appeared in batches of macules, papules, herpes, and finally pustules?" If it heals on its own, it will eventually scab over, break off, and leave acne scars? ”

Sun Simiao turned around suddenly: "That's right! ”

"If it's smallpox, it's scary." Xia Hongsheng shook his head: "At the moment, it should be a blockade of the epidemic area, and all patients must be isolated separately, and they can only be contacted by those who have recovered from it before." Otherwise, it will spread quickly, like a flood beast. ”

"It's better to see Your Majesty first!" Doctor He said.

The three of them quickened their steps again and hurried towards the Liangyi Palace.

Smallpox is ferocious and rapidly developing, with a very high fatality rate in unimmunized people. Not only that, even if you are lucky enough to heal yourself, the acne scars left by smallpox are often all over the face or even the whole body, causing serious damage to people's appearance, making people dare not look directly, and the impact of this is also a lifetime.

This infectious disease has caused great losses in the world. Even in Xia Hongsheng's later life, there was no definite effective treatment for smallpox. Patients infected with smallpox must be strictly isolated for more than a month until they recover on their own.

However, in Xia Hongsheng's time, he had not heard anything about the smallpox epidemic for many years. Xia Hongsheng's memory of the latest news about smallpox is that the world's last smallpox virus has been stored in the specimen bank of Antarctica.

Humanity eventually triumphed over smallpox.

There is no cure for smallpox, but there is a way to predict it.

While thinking about it, the three of them had already arrived outside the Liangyi Palace, and they were able to enter through the inner attendants.

"How?" When Li Shimin saw the three of them enter, his expression was a little grim.

"The son-in-law just retired, and met Sun Daochang halfway through, and learned that there was an epidemic in Lingnan, and they came over together." Xia Hongsheng said to Li Shimin: "For the specific situation, let's ask Doctor He to talk about it!" ”

Li Shimin looked at Imperial Physician He, and Imperial Physician He saluted again and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the Imperial Hospital received a letter from the medical officer of Yongzhou, Lingnan Province, saying that more than 1,000 people have died of pea sores in Yongzhou!" ”

"Pea sores?" Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Why don't you listen to the reports from the three provinces?" ”

In the event of an epidemic in the local area, the local officials should go to the Ministry of Households, the meeting of the three provinces, and then report to the emperor according to the seriousness of the epidemic. It seems that more than 1,000 people have already died, and it is already a great epidemic.

The three of them looked at each other, but no one answered.

Li Shimin turned his head to Wang De and said, "Send someone to summon Fang Qing to come." ”

Wang De was ordered to go out, and Li Shimin asked Sun Simiao again: "This epidemic is quite serious, according to Sun Daochang, how should I deal with it?" ”

"If you don't block the place, I'm afraid it will spread more and more." Sun Simiao shook his head and said, "If you take honey and smear it all over your body, or use honey to boil cohosh, and drink it frequently, you may have a solution." You can also boil the cohosh and then apply the liquid to the sores. It is best to soak the cohosh in wine and then wipe it, but the severe pain is unbearable, and there is no guarantee of healing. ”

"There is no cure." Li Shimin said: "I have also seen people suffering from this disease, and there was also a spread of this epidemic in the customs during the former Sui Dynasty, and I remember at that time that about tens of thousands of people died before it gradually stopped. I have heard that some people who have this disease can recover on their own and will not get it again in the future, but their appearance is disfigured. ”

"Exactly." Imperial Physician He said: "Your Majesty, if you get this disease, it is all up to fate. If you are lucky, although you have disfigured your face, you can save your life, and you will not be afraid of this disease in the future. But nine times out of ten, they all end up dying. ”

In other words, the only way to do this is to lock down the place and prevent the epidemic from spreading. As for those who are already sick, there is nothing they can do. Li Shimin sighed and said, "Is it possible to watch so many people in Yongzhou get infected with this disease and fend for themselves?!" Doctor Sun, even you can't do it? ”

Sun Simiao shook his head and sighed: "The evil plague is fiercer than the tiger!" ”

After that, Sun Simiao suddenly seemed to remember something, and as soon as he turned his head, he looked at Xia Hongsheng and asked, "The smallpox person mentioned by Young Master Xia seems to know something about this epidemic. Does Young Master Xia have a way? ”

Sun Simiao looked at Xia Hongsheng expectantly, thinking that Xia Hongsheng could make malaria and cold disease no longer become an epidemic, and even had a way to prevent and treat it. Nowadays, people are no longer afraid of malaria and cold disease, and maybe there will be a solution for pea sores.

"Yes, Young Master Xia just listened to Weichen's description, and blurted out the name, but neither Weichen nor Sun Daochang had ever heard of it. I'm afraid I understand something. As soon as Imperial Physician He heard Sun Simiao's words, he immediately thought about it, and quickly looked back at Xia Hongsheng.

"This ......," Xia Hongsheng scratched his head.

"Is there a way for a virtuous son-in-law?" Li Shimin hurriedly asked: "If there is, you should take it out to save the people!" ”

"This ...... I wonder if Sun Daochang has ever heard of pox? Xia Hongsheng thought for a moment and asked.

"Planting beans?" Li Shimin frowned, and immediately felt a little displeased: "What does this mean by virtuous son-in-law?!" Could it be that planting beans can cure pea sores? ”

Xia Hongsheng shook his head: "The son-in-law is talking about the pox of acne." ”

Sun Simiao was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Poor Dao has heard of the method of deliberately planting acne sores artificially and attacking poison with poison. Could it be that Xia Gong said this? ”

"Huh?" Xia Hongsheng was stunned, now there is a way to get pox? It shouldn't be!

"If you deliberately plant a pox, don't you also get the disease?" Doctor He asked rhetorically.

"Poor Tao is just hearsay." Sun Simiao said: "It is said that if you squeeze the pox of a sick person, dip the pus inside with a needle, and then prick it into the nose of another person, the latter will not be infected with pea sore." Poor Dao had only heard of it once, and thought that this method was pure nonsense and a harmful act, so he did not try it. ”

"No, no, no......" Xia Hongsheng waved his hand again and again: "It's too dangerous to do this, the pox seedlings of human pox are too toxic, and the chance of infection is too high." I'm not talking about human pox, I'm talking about cowpox! ”
