Chapter 197 Chatting with the Miracle Doctor

Although it said so.

But Zhang Wenjing was still puzzled, because it was really unbelievable!

Because looking at Su Changan, whether it is his face or body shape, he is exactly the same as a woman.

The only difference may be the difference between the chest and the chest of the woman.

There are also many ordinary women, so in fact they can be said to be no different.

And it's the throat.

Zhang Wenjing knew very well that men's throats were larger than women's, but Su Changan's was exactly the same as a woman's.

so.

From a professional perspective, Zhang Wenjing was a little surprised.

But to say that I am happy is also true.

Because for Zhang Wenjing, the better it is if there are fewer patients in the world.

As for the matter of Su Changan dressing as a woman, it involved the temple.

That's not something a doctor like him can think about.

but.

Looking at Su Changan, Zhang Wenjing felt incredible, but also marveled at the wonders of the world.

For men.

But he is so handsome, even more handsome than a girl. What a sigh!

But suddenly

Zhang Wenjing realized that there was something wrong with what she had just said, and then she looked at Su Changan and hurriedly bowed, "I am old and stupid. Now that I know you are a man, I still call you Madam. Please forgive me."

Hearing this

Su Changan smiled helplessly.

Xia Fengxiang said, "She is the Empress, so just continue to call her that. Although I don't care if others know about it, the fewer people who know about it, the better. Now that Mr. Zhang knows about it, just continue to treat her as a woman."

Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang and wanted to say something.

But when he saw Xia Fengxiang glaring at him, he could only curl his lips and say, "Okay, it's your fault that you're a pervert, and I just happen to like you, a pervert."

Zhang Wenjing was surprised, but thought that the empress must have her own plans, so he quickly bowed and said, "I only know that the empress is not feeling well today, I don't know anything else."

Xia Fengxiang smiled and didn't plan to dwell on this matter any more. After all, if he told Zhang Wenjing about this, he couldn't hide it from this miracle doctor, and there was no need to hide it. Now that everything was out, there was no point in dwelling on it.

Moreover, Zhang Wenjing had worked in the Imperial Medical Service for more than ten years, and Xia Fengxiang also knew the old man's character.

Therefore, he did not explain too much, but asked, "He vomited blood when he took a step into the sixth rank a few days ago. When you examined his pulse, did you find anything wrong?"

Zhang Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then thought about it carefully and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen is in good health and is much healthier than ordinary people. However, regarding the blood she vomited that day, may I ask Your Majesty, was the blood she vomited thick black blood?"

Xia Fengxiang thought about it and nodded: "Well, yes."

Zhang Wenjing immediately smiled and said, "That mouthful of blood must be the dirty blood in your body. Your Majesty is a natural person. When she entered the sixth rank, she must have used some internal strength, and coupled with her anger, she vomited the dirty blood in her chest. Your Majesty, don't worry. This is a good thing. If you don't vomit it out, it will become a hidden danger."

Hearing this, Xia Fengxiang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

After saying that, Xia Fengxiang looked at Zhang Wenjing and remembered something, and immediately said: "Mr. Zhang, you don't need to address me as a commoner. Although you resigned from the position of Imperial Physician, and although you rejected your father's idle position as Imperial Physician Doctor, you have always been the Imperial Physician Doctor on the list of the Imperial Physician Department, so you don't need to address me as a commoner."

After that, Xia Fengxiang smiled and looked at Zhang Wenjing and said, "I know you are writing medical books now, hoping to help patients all over the world, but the doctor of the Imperial Hospital is just a sinecure, and it will be good for you to travel around the world."

Zhang Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then he bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xia Fengxiang thought for a moment and asked again, "Sir, how long will you stay in the capital this time?"

Zhang Wenjing said immediately, "I came to Beijing this time to treat the queen, and also to stay in Yao Yuanzai's residence temporarily. It will take some time to complete the outline of my medical book. After that, I will go to Yuzhou to find folk doctors. I heard that the folk doctors there have traditional methods to treat smallpox. I want to learn more about it and see if I can find a way to completely curb smallpox."

Su Changan, who had not interrupted the conversation between Xia Fengxiang and Zhang Wenjing, heard this and thought for a moment before saying, "Sir, what method do you use to treat smallpox now?"

Zhang Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying truthfully: "Your Majesty, I cannot completely cure smallpox."

Hearing this, Su Changan said directly: "I have an idea, sir, can you listen to it and see if it is useful?"

Zhang Wenjing was stunned for a moment.

Xia Fengxiang on the side also looked at Su Changan with some surprise.

However, Zhang Wenjing looked at Su Changan and bowed, "Your Majesty, please speak."

Su Changan said, "Sir, you must know that people who have been infected with smallpox will never get the disease again in the future."

Zhang Wenjing nodded: "That's true, but among a hundred people who have smallpox, only one can recover safely. It's really rare. But for those who have recovered, let alone touching the clothes of smallpox patients, even touching the poisonous sores and wounds, they are safe and sound."

But after saying this, Zhang Wenjing immediately asked, "Your Majesty, do you mean to find a way to treat smallpox from those who have recovered?"

Su Changan shook his head: "Yes and no. After all, what I thought of was the method of fighting poison with poison, and those people were no longer afraid of smallpox after they recovered. Doesn't that mean that after getting smallpox once, you will have no worries for the rest of your life? And as far as I know, the cure rate of early smallpox symptoms is very high."

"Fighting poison with poison? Early cure?" Zhang Wenjing looked at Su Changan with some doubts, but after thinking about it, she shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, you don't know that some people have tried to use the blood and saliva of recovered people as medicine to treat smallpox, but it didn't work."

But when he said this, Zhang Wenjing suddenly showed a look of enlightenment on his face, and then looked at Su Changan: "If early smallpox is discovered in time, it can be controlled with drugs such as Pueraria root, so the probability of cure is very high."

At this point, Zhang Wenjing began to think carefully again, then looked at Su Changan anxiously and asked, "Your Majesty, do you mean to use the things used by smallpox patients to infect people who have not had smallpox, so that they will develop smallpox symptoms and be treated to achieve a preventive effect? ​​No, this method is correct, but if you want better treatment and prevention, it is better to extract the seeds from the sores. No, no, no!! If you infect people directly like that, the toxicity is so great that the vaccine recipients may even skip early and die directly. It is better to use things used by patients."

"But what if we extract and refine the venom? And instead of extracting the toxin directly from the pox, we use the scab powder, and then select and refine it, and continuously extract it. After the fire poison is eliminated, we will implant it into the human body. Then, the human body will have the early symptoms of smallpox. But if we take good care of it and wait for it to recover, won't it be the same as those who recovered from that pox?"

As Zhang Wenjing talked to herself, her face became more and more excited.

After saying this, Zhang Wenjing suddenly thought carefully for a moment, took a breath, and said excitedly: "It's feasible! It's feasible! We can give this method a try! Although it's troublesome, if we can use this method to implant smallpox into the human body, it will definitely prevent smallpox!"

When Su Changan heard this, he looked at Zhang Wenjing in surprise.

I was thinking, why not call him a miracle doctor? I just said a few words casually and haven't gotten to the point yet, but this came to my mind immediately.

Because the method Zhang Wenjing mentioned does exist.

And it’s called the smallpox method.

In Su Changan's previous life, the human pox vaccination method, also known as the nasal vaccination method, appeared during the Longqing period of the Ming Dynasty.

It is generally divided into two types. One method is called the dry seedling method, which is to take the scabs of smallpox patients, grind them into fine powder, add camphor and borneol, and blow it into the nose of the person being vaccinated.

Another method is called the water seedling method, which is to add the patient's smallpox scabs to human milk or water, dip a cotton swab in it, and insert it into the nose of the person being vaccinated.

However, both methods were designed to allow the recipients to be mildly infected with smallpox, causing fever and rash. After careful care, the symptoms would disappear, which was equivalent to having had smallpox and thus having immunity.

Su Changan used to be a history student, and he liked to learn about these things, so he had seen these things and understood them very well.

However, due to its high toxicity, this method could not guarantee the life safety of the vaccine recipients 100%. "Among ten people who receive the vaccination smoothly, eight out of ten people who receive the vaccination injurious to the vaccine will survive." Therefore, various methods of vaccination emerged later.

What Zhang Wenjing was talking about at the time was the more mature "mature seedling vaccination" that appeared later. After the seedlings were raised, selected, and vaccinated for seven generations in a row, the fire poison was eliminated and it was very safe to use it on healthy people.

So Su Changan was naturally surprised at Zhang Wenjing's advanced thinking.

However, thinking about how Zhu Mianlu and the others had only provided a map before, and the technology tree for muskets had made great strides forward, Su Changan was not surprised at the moment.

And looking at Zhang Wenjing's excited expression.

Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan in surprise.

Epidemics have been a matter of concern for emperors since ancient times.

After all, when the epidemic came, the disease came like a mountain, especially those life-threatening diseases, which caused large-scale deaths and spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred.

Xia Fengxiang still remembers the Yuzhou epidemic more than ten years ago, in which tens of thousands of people died of the disease. His father was even more worried at the time.

Although the plague was finally solved by finding a cure, there were still too many diseases that could not be cured, and smallpox was one of them.

If smallpox can be treated and prevented, it will be a great blessing for Daxia and all people! !

So Xia Fengxiang was naturally excited and happy, and he also understood why Zhang Wenjing, whose only goal in his life was to cure diseases and save lives, was so excited.

Su Changan could naturally understand it. After all, doctors have kind hearts, especially when it comes to solving difficult and complicated diseases, even terminal illnesses. If they could find a cure, how could they not be happy?

but

This method can be used to treat smallpox, but this is not what Su Changan actually wants to say.

So Su Changan said, "Mr.

But Su Changan spoke.

Zhang Wenjing, however, had already entered a state of deep thought, as if she hadn't heard anything at all.

So Su Changan deliberately raised his voice and said, "Sir."

This time, Zhang Wenjing heard it and immediately realized that he had lost his composure. He immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was too excited."

However, after finishing speaking, Zhang Wenjing looked at Su Changan and said, "What the queen said, after I thought about it, the method is absolutely feasible. If it succeeds, the queen's contribution will be valuable for thousands of years and benefit all the people."

After saying that, Zhang Wenjing bowed deeply to Su Changan again.

Su Changan smiled and said, "It was you who came up with the idea, sir. I just made a suggestion."

Zhang Wenjing immediately shook his head: "If it wasn't for the Queen's suggestion, how could this old minister have thought of it? Besides, the Queen didn't finish her words just now, but this old minister interrupted her because of excitement."

As he said this, Zhang Wenjing's face showed an anxious look, and he was obviously anxious to test whether this method would work.

Su Changan shook his head and said, "Sir, I haven't finished yet."

Zhang Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then immediately adjusted her thoughts and looked at Su Changan respectfully.

Just by proposing this idea, Su Changan has already occupied an extraordinary position in Zhang Wenjing's heart.

Su Changan continued, "When I was a kid, I saw some cows and horses with smallpox-like sores on their bodies. I saw many people touching them but not getting infected. So I thought, what if we use the poisonous sores of those animals to fight poison with poison?"

Zhang Wenjing blinked, then frowned and thought about it. Then she suddenly remembered something, looked up at Su Changan, but immediately stopped talking.

Su Changan continued, "Some people may also be infected by the pox on cows, but they are just not used to it. Very few people will get sick and die from it. So I thought, if cowpox can fight smallpox with poison, then is there a vaccine that can also prevent and treat smallpox? If a vaccine can be extracted from cowpox and implanted into the human body, then can we no longer worry about smallpox like those who have recovered from smallpox?"

Zhang Wenjing heard, "Cowpox."

Su Changan said, "It's just a hypothesis, but it depends on whether Mr. Zhang thinks it's feasible. I just think that the ulcers on the cow are no different from smallpox on humans, so I wonder if they are from the same origin. They are both the same virus, but because the disease carriers are different, their roots are different. But if a person recovers from smallpox, he can live a worry-free life. And Mr. Zhang just came up with a method to inoculate human pox, why not try to extract cowpox and experiment with it."

"After all, cowpox is safer than human pox, and if they are from the same origin, they must be able to resist smallpox."

Su Changan said something specifically so that Zhang Wenjing could understand.

Although he didn't understand some of the terms and didn't know how to say them, he said that.

but

Zhang Wenjing understood it, and heard it very clearly.

Fighting fire with fire

Fight poison with poison!

Zhang Wenjing understood it all at once.

Although Zhang Wenjing had never heard of the fact that cows could also get sores like smallpox, he had seen the tragic scene with his own eyes, and it was exactly the same as that of smallpox patients.

And then I thought of what Su Changan had just said.

Zhang Wenjing breathed rapidly and began to think of all the possibilities in her mind.

His heart was in turmoil, as if hearing what he said today had opened up a new field of medicine that he had never thought of.

finally

Zhang Wenjing took a step back, then looked at Su Changan, bowed and said, "Your Majesty's words are like a revelation. Not only does this old minister suddenly feel enlightened, but I can also feel that if this method is successful, smallpox will no longer be a difficult disease! And if it is successful, Your Majesty will benefit our Great Xia and all the people of China!"

As he spoke, Zhang Wenjing bowed deeply towards Su Changan.

Su Changan stood up and bowed to Zhang Wenjing in return: "This matter cannot be done by one person alone. Besides, I am just imagining it. If it weren't for someone with profound medical skills like Mr. Zhang, how could he have thought of these things."

In fact, Su Changan just wanted to tell Zhang Wenjing the method of smallpox vaccination at the beginning.

The idea of ​​using cowpox vaccination was to give Zhang Wenjing some ideas so that she could study it herself.

After all, Su Changan didn’t know what to do specifically.

He only knew that cowpox was created by a foreigner.

but

Foreigners can do it, but we Chinese can't? ?

Although this world is not the same as the previous life, this world is also Chinese!

So Su Changan said it out loud to give people some ideas.

But Zhang Wenjing obviously understood it completely. However, as for how to make the cowpox vaccine, Su Changan didn't know. It depended on professionals like Zhang Wenjing.

But looking at Zhang Wenjing's appearance, Su Changan felt that Zhang Wenjing should have some ideas.

Zhang Wenjing looked at Su Changan, unable to hide his excitement, and said, "If it weren't for your Majesty's reminder, how could I have thought of that? I just thought it was smallpox, and it was incurable with ordinary medicines. It's just because we haven't found a suitable prescription yet. I'm so stupid! And your Majesty's idea has made me have some ideas about other diseases. So, your Majesty, please don't give in. I will definitely go all out to make the cowpox and human pox vaccine. When it's successful, I will tell the world that it's your Majesty's credit."
