Chapter 151
[Malaria is a parasite-borne infectious disease transmitted from mosquitoes to humans. The protozoa first infected mosquitoes, causing poison to appear on the mouth. Then the mosquitoes suck human blood and infected the parasites to humans.] Yinreng did not understand what malaria was, and Xiaomei used the most simple language to give Yinreng a popular science explanation.
Since it is a mosquito-borne infectious disease, it often occurs in places with a lot of mosquitoes, along the coast and river areas, and moist environments are prone to mosquitoes.
The current conclusion reached by the research is that black soldier flies can effectively inhibit the "toxicity" produced by mosquitoes, but that is also used for prevention rather than treatment.
[The Qing Dynasty has malaria treatment methods recorded in medical books since ancient times, mainly targeting the symptoms after malaria. People will have chills, chills, high fever, etc. In severe cases, various concurrent diseases will be caused by high fever. Therefore, for superficial symptoms, Chinese herbal medicine has good healing effects. These are all curative but not root causes, so that people with malaria will often relapse, and will relapse when their resistance is low.] Yinreng is reluctant to let Yao Qisheng cherish the golden and brilliant person. He is staring at Xiaomei on parasite infectious diseases caused by mosquitoes. He is also an urgent illness and seeking medical treatment.
[Artemisinin can treat malaria, especially for severe falciparum. Ancient books record artemisinin treats malaria, but this is an ineffective treatment because artemisinin does not have artemisinin at all.] [Extracting artemisinin can effectively kill 98% of parasites within four hours! This was discovered by a great researcher named Tu Youyou, but... with the current extraction technology of the Qing Dynasty, it is impossible to extract artemisinin from other plants.] Xiaomei tried to explain it as much as possible when she gave Yinreng science popularization. Everything was to solve the urgent problem and save Yao Qisheng's life. Then spending a lot of manpower and material resources to improve the extraction technology, and finally studying the extraction of artemisinin is obviously unrealistic.
Finally, Xiaomei told Yinreng with the information in the database.
[According to the search keywords, Xiaomei found that drugs for the treatment of malaria were abundant in the Americas from the database.] Yinreng:...
It is even more impossible to build a ship to the Americas to get medicine.
"It's over, Lord Yao wants the soul to pass away forever."
[Old friends first listened to Xiaomei's words. It was obviously impossible for the Qing Dynasty to build a ship to the Americas, but more than a hundred years ago, the West had already begun colonial and plundering the Americas.] Xiaomei once again put a world map for Yinreng, this time more detailed than the last time she saw it.
[There is a kind of tree in the Americas called the cinchona tree. It has the effect of treating malaria from the roots to the bark of the tree, and can kill 70% of parasites! The Western countries plundered this cinchona tree and made it into a drug that can treat malaria, and plundered people from countries that have colonized the Americas. Every missionary carries this drug with them.] After Xiaomei's popular science, Yinreng took the lead in thinking of finding Nan Huairen.
Nan Huairen told Yinreng regretfully: "I have been in the Qing Dynasty for decades and I don't have this drug around me."
But if Yinreng needs it, Nan Huairen can send a message to the Jesuits behind him and ask other missionaries of the Jesuit to deliver medicine to the Qing Dynasty through sea boats. This is the fastest way, and it takes about one to two months.
Yinreng felt a little anxious. In one or two months, can Yao Qisheng last until that time?
He asked Xiaomei again: Is Master Nan trustworthy?
Perhaps he defined himself as a native of the Qing Dynasty since he was a child, and the Western missionaries who came from abroad were defined by him as a foreigner of the Qing Dynasty. Yinreng always had a certain degree of vigilance towards the missionaries who came here. Even though Nan Huairen acted harmlessly, he used a name for the Qing Dynasty in his travel notes, which was enough to show that although Nan Huairen was an official in the Qing Dynasty, he did not return to the Qing Dynasty.
[Nan Huairen was very active in delivering medicine to treat Yao Qisheng. With Yao Qisheng in the West, the maritime trade route to the Qing Dynasty would be faster and smoother. If he used life-saving medicine, it would be of great benefit to the Belgian Jesuit group behind him. Although the Qing Dynasty was in a state of ban on sea, the other side of the sea was always seeking a trade route to the east. The original maritime overlords were Spain and Portugal, and then England, Frank, the Netherlands, etc., have been challenging the old colonial overlord status.] The knowledge Xiaomei taught Yinreng was a blank area that Kangxi did not know. The sea ban on the Qing Dynasty was too long, and it was long since the Qing Dynasty was ignorant of the outside, which also made the outside contempt for the Qing Dynasty.
[Yao Qisheng and Shi Lang captured Taiwan, which made the people of Japan dare not act rashly in England, which they supported behind them, and were afraid of the Netherlands, which had been peeping at for a long time. I believe that as long as the Qing Dynasty opened the maritime ban, they would definitely rush to send envoys to the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, the idea of the great friend is not wrong. The Qing Dynasty needs a strong navy and needs to improve artillery and firearms.] Xiaomei was extremely despised by the policy of maritime ban, although the maritime ban was to resist the power of Zheng Chenggong in the past few years, and the consequences and disadvantages brought about by the maritime ban were too great.
[You can no longer lock your child at home and lose people because you are afraid of being bullied. Children have to grow up and rely on themselves to avoid being bullied. Children outside the house are communicating, playing, and fighting. This is an inevitable fact. Opening the sea ban and closing the country is a self-blind mentality of blinding themselves and pretending to deceive themselves without children outside. Over time, children can sing, dance, fight, and wear fashionable clothes. Children locked up at home will only have what they originally had, wearing rusty clothes.] Yinreng thought hard, afraid that Yao Qisheng would be gone.
Yinreng proposed to Nan Huairen, hoping that he would offer medicine to Khan Ama. If Khan Ama agreed to open some ports first, so that the medicine made from the cinchona tree could be transported as soon as possible.
Nan Huairen responded in one go.
As for the others, Yinreng couldn't do anything. At this time, he was particularly sad that he was still young, had less manpower, had too little ink in his stomach, and had too little knowledge to learn that when things came to an end, he could not think of a way to solve it.
The Imperial Hospital sent by Kangxi used the prescription from "Emergency Prescriptions for Elbows", with Artemisia annua as the main medicine, but its effect was very little.
In order to relieve Yao Qisheng's high fever, he used the "Chaihu Guijiang Decoction" recorded in "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" to relieve exterior and expel evil spirits, and added Changshan to intercept malaria.
In the eyes of Yao Qisheng, malaria, was infected with malaria, which was considered to be infected with humans. Therefore, except for the Imperial Hospital in the courtyard where he lived, no one was allowed to visit him.
Time was under Yinreng's anxious waiting, and good news finally came. The symptoms that Yao Qisheng had developed temporarily stabilized under the bold treatment of the Imperial Hospital. Once the high fever subsided, the next step was to replenish the blood and energy of Yao Qisheng who was anemia.
The court verdict wrote to Kangxi a memorial: Inspired by His Royal Highness the Prince's previous research on insects, Weichen tried to treat leeches, black soldier flies and other insects. The blood sucking of leeches helps eliminate blood stasis, but it is not used frequently because of ischemia of Lord Yao. The black soldier flies contain rich nutrition in medicinal use, but it is not as effective as another insect called "foreign insects".
Foreign insects, also known as Jiulong insect, were introduced to the country in the previous dynasty. People at that time believed that if foreign insects appeared, there would be people with longevity in the square.
There are many people who continue to discover insects and conduct research experiments in the insect research institute created by Yinreng.
Due to this folk rumor, they attached importance to the study of foreign insects, and even used Poria cocos and safflower to raise foreign insects. Compared with whether the foreign insects grown up with these medicinal materials are more effective than ordinary foreign insects.
The foreign insects used by the Institute of Criminal came from the Institute of Insects. In his memorials, he praised the research results of the Institute of Insects and praised His Royal Highness for his "foresight" and "wise and wise".
People at that time said that the Insect Research Institute was very disgusted. Apart from these imperial physicians, many officials thought it was founded to solve the problem of rotten garbage by cultivating rotten insects. The court magistrate praised the achievements of using insects as medicine to temporarily cure Yao Qisheng, which once again brought insects into people's sight.
The magistrate of the hospital requested a report from Kangxi: I hope the emperor can support the Imperial Hospital in cultivating and breeding foreign insects.
This insect is effective against the symptoms of heart and stomach pain, abdominal distension, vomiting and diarrhea caused by malaria.
Kangxi was stunned when he received this memorial. After a while, he came to his senses and said to the people around him with emotion: "I originally thought that Baocheng's Insect Research Institute was just a small fight, but I didn't expect it to be useful this time."
The emperor was just a little moved at first, and supported the proposal of the court, and reviewed the word "approval" on his memorial.
Who knows that in just seven days, the harem was also in a sensation because of this "foreign insect"?
All of this is also attributed to another wonderful use of "foreign insects". It has miraculous effects on treating irregular menstruation and red, white and smelly women with red and white smell!
The foreign insects had not become popular in the Imperial Hospital, but they were the first to make a big splash in the harem. Concubine Hui also asked the Imperial Hospital to ask for a return to the palace to keep and praise the foreign insect larvae for being "shaped like a small silkworm, with a cute luster".
The insects are cute in lust and rosy when eaten, and the face is rosy and cute in lust.
This bug is very cute and afraid of the cold, so she needs someone to hold it in her arms.
Kangxi:...
You can play or you can play.
The emperor could not speak out to stop Concubine Hui from raising small animals. The prince's little donkey is still in Concubine Hui's palace!
In response to this, Kangxi could only warn Yinreng: You are not allowed to raise insects.
Yinreng is very innocent: Who wants to raise insects? I have the entire institute of insects, so how many insects are needed!
Ten days after the separation, Yao Qisheng returned and entered the palace to thank the emperor for his grace.
Look at his first recovery from a serious illness, he seems to be thinner and hunched than he had seen before.
Kangxi didn't dare to say anything bad again this time. Just as Yinreng said, who would have thought that Yao Qisheng was a glossy heart?
The emperor said: "I am waiting for you to recover, and only you can take charge of the overall situation in Fujian."
Feeling the softening in the emperor's words, Yao Qisheng's heart was sore.
The emperor still had him in his heart, otherwise he would not have sent an imperial physician to treat him repeatedly, and even the magistrate who treated him was sent out to him.
Yao Qisheng's depression in his heart that was out of favor was faded.
"I thank you for your kindness!"
Seeing that Kangxi ordered Yao Qisheng to go home to recuperate, Yinreng stood up and quietly pulled Kangxi's clothes.
Only the two of them knew the little movements of the father and son. Kangxi lowered his head and patted his shoulder with his palm, warning: Don’t bother with the old minister, Yao Qisheng can’t be damaged!
However, Khan Ama sealed a false title on the top of Yao Qisheng's head, calling him Prince Taibao!
Yinreng was extremely aggrieved: Is Gu the kind of person who is unrestrained and chaotic?
The author has something to say: Kangxi: I have a bad premonition.
