Chapter 360: Pharmaceuticals
I'm afraid that no princess consort in all dynasties would dare to scold him, the crown prince, like she did.
However, compared to her previous gentle and submissive attitude towards him, he preferred the way she treated him now.
In the past, she always seemed to be separated from him by a veil, hazy and unclear, making it difficult to grasp or understand.
At this moment, her true feelings were revealed.
She was really mean to him because she was worried about him, nervous about him, and afraid.
"As long as you are here, I can't die." He whispered softly in a doting and trusting tone.
All of Chen Fenghe's curse words were stuck in his throat in an instant, and he couldn't utter a single word.
His nose felt sore and his eyes were uncontrollably moist, but the next second his anger rose again.
"Since you knew you wouldn't die as long as I was here, why did you let Yuan Xu hide it from me? Do you have to wait until you're terminally ill and it's too late to tell me? Do you want me to spend the rest of my life...living in the regret of not being able to save you in time?"
The word she didn't say was heartache.
It was as if once she said this word, it would confirm the futility of all her alienation and rejection of him.
It turned out that the thought of him dying, the thought of him being so close to death as he was at that moment, made her feel so... panicked and terrified...
Xiao Yunshuo stared at her quietly with his dark eyes. After she finished speaking, he curved his lips into a slight smile and said softly, "I can't take the risk..."
What can't be risked?
Chen Fenghe was still angry and didn't react for a moment, just looking at him in confusion.
Xiao Yunshuo smiled and continued, "Before you came, I wasn't sure if you could cure this illness. So I couldn't risk telling you. Because, if I told you, and you came, but I couldn't cure it, then you would only get infected with the disease, which would harm you..."
Shen Fenghe was stunned.
Is this why he would rather approach death step by step alone than let anyone inform her?
indeed.
She was an excellent doctor, and he should have known that.
When she was treating his poison, she fed him poisons like heartbreak grass every day. Even so, he always drank the medicine obediently and never expressed any doubt about her medical skills.
However, as long as one is human, there will be blind spots.
No matter how skilled a doctor is, there may be difficult and complicated diseases that he is not aware of.
He didn't know that she came from another time and space, a future time and space with a high level of modernization and that had conquered many deadly diseases.
——Even if he knew, he couldn't be sure whether that time and space had conquered the disease.
So, in order not to implicate her, he would rather die...
However, why go to such lengths?
Since ancient times, emperors, generals, and those in high positions all felt that their lives were more precious than others and that they could create more value by living. Therefore, for the sake of their own lives, or even immortality, they would rather sacrifice the lives of countless people.
Since he is the prince, why doesn't he do so?
She would rather he find her immediately when he finds out he is sick and ask her to help with diagnosis and treatment.
If he had done this, she might not have gotten so caught up in it, and perhaps... she could have gotten away more easily.
Why, knowing that he would die if he didn't tell her, did he still insist on...refuting it?
"Xiao Yunshuo, you are a big bastard!"
Chen Fenghe opened her mouth, but in the end, after thousands of words of questioning, only this one sentence remained.
Xiao Yunshuo's consciousness was a little hazy. He didn't know if it was because she was beside him that he could sleep peacefully for a while without having to worry about falling asleep and never waking up again...
Yuan Xu quickly boiled the medicine and brought it over.
This medicine uses gypsum, buffalo horn, coptis root, pinellia and other medicinal materials. These can relieve the symptoms to a certain extent.
But for Xiao Yunshuo, who is now very ill, the most effective thing is a large amount of streptomycin.
She ordered Yuan Xu to bring a pen and paper, saying, "Yuan Xu, write down everything I'm saying now. Then go shopping. Buy as much as possible. Also, find more people who are not sick and take them to a safe place. Remember to keep them away from the sick."
Yuan Xu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked in a trembling voice, "My Queen, are you going to make medicine to treat this disease like last time?"
Chen Fenghe nodded and said, "The medicine we need to make this time is much more difficult and less common than last time, so we must be more careful. However, I heard that Youzhou City has been surrounded by soldiers. We are in this isolated city, and there is no other way except to save ourselves."
Yuan Xu immediately said seriously, "Your Majesty, I know the seriousness of this matter. Please rest assured!"
Chen Fenghe still trusted Yuan Xu, and immediately read out: "What we need to prepare are bean cake powder, sweet potato powder, and some animal bone powder..."
After talking about the raw materials for making the culture medium, Shen Fenghe told Yuan Xu in detail how to make the culture medium for Streptomyces and how to cultivate streptomycin.
Then, she continued, "Also, buy as many Chinese medicinal herbs as possible from the pharmacy I gave you earlier. Then boil them into a decoction. If the patient's symptoms are relatively mild, distribute the decoction to them three times a day. If they are in good health, they should be able to be cured directly. If there is no cure, wait until the medicine is cultivated and then inject some of this medicine..."
After hearing this, Yuan Xu agreed to go.
This Youzhou City is like other places in Dayu, and there are also many people from the Dark Chamber in the city.
Xiao Yunshuo was the one who founded the Dark Pavilion. Therefore, when Yuan Xu appeared with the token, he immediately gathered enough people to be responsible for the entire process of purchasing and finding places, allocating isolation areas and pharmaceutical areas, etc.
But in just one day, he had prepared the culture medium according to what Shen Fenghe had taught him and started mass-producing streptomycin.
On the other hand, according to the prescription written by Chen Fenghe, the people in the Dark Pavilion also set up another place to distribute medicine, distributing medicinal soup to patients with milder symptoms in the city three times a day.
Ever since Youzhou City was surrounded by the governor of Hejian Prefecture, there has been no order. Everyone felt that they were doomed, so many scoundrels took the opportunity to rob and commit all kinds of evil.
But now, with the method of making medicine and the prescription of decoction for mild symptoms, everyone in the city suddenly regained hope.
Many people who were waiting to die at home or even took the opportunity to do bad things came forward voluntarily to help.
Within just five days, order was restored and everything became organized.
Shen Fenghe heard all these things from Yuan Xu.
She was worried about Xiao Yunshuo, so she stayed by his side for the past five days. She would only leave for a while and then enter the space to confirm when she needed to check whether the streptomycin produced by Yuan Xu was successful and effective.
Fortunately, everything went well.
The first batch of streptomycin was quickly produced and injected into the city's seriously ill patients.
