Chapter 653 Xinbao is very capable

To make cat ear dumplings, you need to roll the dough into a large sheet first, and then cut it into a square with one end larger than the other.

Xinbao doesn’t need to roll out the dough or prepare the filling, he just needs to wrap it.

While cutting, the pastry chef respectfully asked: "Your Highness, may I tell you something?"

“No need,” Tuanzi said confidently, “Xinbao is great at it!”

She stood up, picked up the ones that were well cut, and started to wrap them clumsily.

Cat-ear dumplings are very simple to make. Just put the stuffing in the small end, roll it up and pinch it. Xinbao really knows how to do it, but her little hands are a little hard to turn. Finally, she simply put the dough on the board, then put the stuffing on it, push it on both sides with her little hands, roll it up, pinch it, perfect! ! Tuanzi's eyes lit up with joy, and she showed it to her wife.

Yuan Shenjue smiled and nodded: "Xinbao is awesome!!"

Tuanzi was smug: "Xinbao is amazing! He's so skillful!!"

Yuan Shenjue smiled and said, "Yes, you have very skillful hands."

The dumplings are wrapped happily one by one. Although there is not much filling, they look pretty good after being wrapped.

The small kitchen was not big. Yuan Shenjue stayed with her inside while Hao Huashi strolled outside.

He was familiar with Lu Sanchi, so he came over to chat with him. However, as they were chatting, he always felt that Lu Sanchi seemed a little absent-minded.

He asked him, "What's wrong?"

Lu Sanchi was stunned, and subconsciously turned his eyes away, smiling, "What's wrong?"

Although he covered it up immediately, Hao Huashi still felt something was wrong. He glanced at him, then came over and took a look inside.

There was a pastry chef inside, a eunuch who looked to be in his thirties or forties. He was very humble and considerate.

A ten-year-old eunuch stood in the corner stirring the stuffing. He seemed a little uneasy, but he probably didn't know any kung fu.

Hao Huashi knew that he was overthinking. It was probably not what he thought, but something else.

He hugged his shoulders and watched from a distance.

The young monitor noticed it, turned around and saw it was him, he was so scared that his legs went weak and he almost fell.

Then, as if he had made up his mind, he turned around, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed, "Your Highness! Your Highness, I want to beg you!"

Xinbao was so startled that his chopsticks dropped, and then he turned his head and asked, "What?"

Lu Sanchi said anxiously: "Xiao Wuzi! Stop messing around!!"

He quickly knelt down and said with a smile: "Your Highness, please forgive me. It was my fault that I didn't take good care of the child and let him disturb Your Highness."

Xinbao shook his hand: "What do you want to say? Come over here and say it."

Little Wuzi hurried over on his knees, walked around to Xinbao, and kowtowed, saying, "Your Highness, my foster brother Wu An fell ill and was moved out of the palace. I would like to ask Your Highness..."

Hua Shuang couldn't help but scold: "Of course you have to move out of the palace when you are sick! What are you asking for?!"

"No, no," Little Wuzi said anxiously, "Your Highness, several people have been moved out of the palace these days, and Wu An has been out for three days. Your Highness, people say that this disease can be cured, and that the medicine given by the imperial physician is useless. Only your little prince can save him..."

Yuan Shenjue couldn't help but frown: "There are already several? What diseases are they?"

Xiao Wuzi said: "Shivering, fever, I heard some people have diarrhea..."

Yuan Shenjue interrupted him and asked, "What did the imperial physician say?"

Xiao Wuzi said: "The imperial physician said it was called something like... Wen, warm malaria!"

Xinbao opened his eyes wide, stood up suddenly, and subconsciously touched his little ears.

Warm malaria is malaria, commonly known as malaria. It is an infectious disease transmitted by mosquitoes and is more common in summer and autumn.

However, this disease does not develop immediately. There is usually an incubation period, which can be as long as ten days or several months.

When an attack occurs, you will have chills, fever, thirst, palpitations... In severe cases, you may also have vomiting and diarrhea, high fever, severe headache, etc. After long-term and multiple attacks, it may also cause anemia, splenomegaly, etc.

Xinbao casually patted the noodles in his hands and said, "Fourth brother, where is fourth brother?"

Yan Ke ran to call Yan Shisheng over. Yan Shisheng said, "In the past two days, four eunuchs did fall ill and were moved out of the palace. I didn't know it was malaria at first. I only found out this morning. But the imperial physician said that malaria is not good for treating people! And those who were moved out have been well treated. I went to see them this morning."

At this time, the doctor can diagnose malaria, but he does not know that it is transmitted by mosquitoes, nor does he know about the incubation period. He is a typical case of knowing the results but not the reasons.

Xinbao said, "Where is it? I'll go check it out."

Yan Shisheng turned around quickly, took her there personally, and asked people to check who was the first to get sick and whether there was anyone who concealed the disease.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The eunuchs who had been moved out were all outside the palace. Xinbao went over to take a look and found that it was indeed malaria. He immediately panicked and patted his head anxiously.

You know, malaria can be called a plague in many cases. Even people in the palace are sick, so what about outside? Xinbao had a bad feeling, and his throat was a little dry from anxiety: "Hurry, let's tell Yeye quickly."

Hao Huashi quickly went to find Cui Dunyi, and then followed them back to the palace: "I heard that there are indeed a few people in the capital who have malaria."

Yuan Shenjue's expression also changed slightly.

Only a few people know it, what about those who don’t know it? ?

You know, there are many poor people in the world who are sick but don't see a doctor! There are also many big families who employ doctors! Then the news won't get out! Emperor Mingpei listened to what they said and said in a deep voice: "Xinbao, do you mean that this may affect many people?"

"Yes!" Xinbao nodded and gave a simple example: "For example, horses..."

She paused, but was kind enough not to use Ma Shiwen's example: "A person has malaria, and a mosquito bites him, and the mosquito also has malaria in its body. Then the mosquito bites someone else, and that person also gets infected... One person spreads it to another, and the spread is very fast. This is a very serious public health problem."

Emperor Mingpei asked, "Can't it be cured?"

"It can be cured," Xinbao paused.

The specific medicine for malaria is quinine cream, and artemisinin, which appeared much later.

If the conditions are not met to extract artemisinin to a level sufficient for medicinal use, even Artemisia annua is useless. But Cinchona...

Xinbao quietly felt the space and actually found a few cinchona trees! ! Xinbao was so happy that he shouted loudly: "It can be cured! Xinbao has a special medicine!!"

"Okay," Emperor Mingpei said gently to comfort him, "Xinbao, don't worry. You guys go make the medicine. Yeye will take care of the rest."

Xinbao nodded vigorously.

As the space grew larger, her control became greater, so she didn't have to go in to cut down trees. She could just ask Yan Ji to carry out two trees, and then called the imperial physician over to peel the bark together.

There is no time to do anything difficult at this moment, and there is no need to make elixirs. You can just grind the bark simply and roughly. Because quinine has many side effects, there was no such concept when it was discovered in the West, but here, you can add two main, auxiliary and supporting medicines to make it effective. For mild cases, one pill will be effective, and for severe cases, only two or three pills are needed.

The group of people were very busy, and Xinbao was also very busy.

While he was busy, he felt the San Sheng Stone flash.

The brightness was much brighter than when she had rescued her grandfather… It was obvious that this could have been really serious, but now, although the medicine had not yet been prepared, it was obvious that the disaster had been almost averted.
