Feed the sick prince, start from the Krypton Gold Mall

Chapter 4 Malaria, Your Strong One is Coming (Overhaul)
As the prefect of Xuzhou,
Ji Yongchang is the one who can know anything happening in Xuzhou the fastest.

However, even so, the speed of the epidemic outbreak was far beyond their imagination.

By the time they found out, many people in the city had already shown symptoms of the disease, and people from other parts of Xuzhou, both sick and healthy, also came in droves...

Settle the refugees outside the city and isolate the sick people;

Strictly control the people in the city and prohibit the residents from moving around freely;

Burning moxa to exorcise evil spirits,

Gather all doctors for consultation...

Officials in Xuzhou tried every method of dealing with epidemics recorded in ancient books, but more and more people became sick and the situation became more and more serious!
The price of medicinal herbs has tripled, and they are still unavailable;

All the coffins in the city were sold out, and white cloth was hung everywhere;

There were corpses lying on the road outside the city where the refugees were resettled.

It was hot in the summer, and the stench of rotting corpses filled the air inside and outside the city...

Even the imperial doctors sent by the emperor after reporting to the court shook their heads after seeing the situation in the city.

"Master Ji, the situation is much worse than we imagined. Thirty percent of the people in the city have contracted the disease, and there are countless more outside the city. Your most important thing now is to control the disease in Xuzhou and prevent it from spreading."

"Doctor Zhang, I have already sent people to guard the place and will definitely not let the sick people leave.

I just asked the imperial physician to try other methods.

I have 200,000 people in Xuzhou.

Please save them!"

Ji Yongchang looked haggard, and his bloodshot eyes looked at them pleadingly.

Doctor Zhang couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. "Master Ji, we have seen your efforts these days. It's not that we don't want to save you, but there has been no effective way to treat malaria since ancient times.

If it is a minority who gets it, it is not too bad. You can read ancient books and try folk remedies.

But now that the disease has spread on a large scale, the only thing we can do is try our best to prevent it from spreading to other places.

The emperor has given you an oral instruction, asking you to control all patients in the city and not allow malaria to spread beyond Xuzhou.

The old man suggested..."

Doctor Zhang closed his eyes halfway through his speech, then lowered his voice, "Deal with the sick people, burn them, and save the rest."

Doctor Zhang's words,
Ji Yongchang was filled with thoughts.

Especially on the way back home, he didn't even dare to look up at the people on both sides of the street.

However, bad news always comes in pairs.

He had just returned home when the servant came rushing over, "My lord, something bad has happened. Madam and Miss suddenly felt unwell today. It seems they have also been infected with the disease!"

"what?"

His mind suddenly buzzed, and he hurried into the house, "Madam and the eldest daughter are sick, what about the second daughter?"

"The second young lady has already gone to see them."

The servant trotted to catch up with Ji Yongchang and answered.

Ji Yongchang didn't pay attention, but when he rushed into the room and saw Wen Shi with red cheeks but wrapped tightly in the quilt and crying cold, his eyes instantly turned red.

If this disease comes on quickly,
That's it.

First, I say cold.
Afraid of heat,

Then they started to convulse and vomit, and some even didn't survive more than 12 hours...

"lady!"

"master!"

Wen, who was lying on the bed, had been exhausted by malaria. "I'm sorry, Master. I'm still holding Xuzhou back..."

Ji Yongchang wanted to speak, but his voice was stuck in his throat, and he choked up as soon as he spoke. He took two deep breaths and said, "Yinyin, I am sorry for you..." Tears kept falling.
He lowered his head and wiped it off with his sleeve, "I'll go see Nan Yue again."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and pretended to be strong and walked out. But when he saw Ji Nanyue doing the same, he couldn't hold on any longer and stumbled and fell in the yard.

The housekeeper quickly supported him and said, "Master, the entire Xuzhou and the Ji family need you, you can't fall!"

"I know."

Ji Yongchang waved his hand, returned to Wen's room, and sat there until late at night.

He even began to wonder if he had done something bad in his previous life, which was why his wife, daughter and Xuzhou suffered such a disaster...

The moon is high in the sky,

Frogs croak and insects chirp,

The city of Xuzhou, which was supposed to be asleep, was occasionally filled with cries and funeral music.

Ji Yongchang saw the red fever on the bed subsided in the moonlight, and it seemed that Wen Shi's sleeping face became much more relaxed. He stood up and touched her forehead with his hand, and suddenly found that she seemed to no longer have fever and chills, and there were signs of improvement!
In the quiet courtyard, his excited voice rang out, "Housekeeper, go get the doctor!"

The imperial doctors had already left Xuzhou in the afternoon.

Late in the night, the doctors in Xuzhou, who had just gone to bed after a busy day, were called up to work overtime.

But surprisingly -

"Sir, the lady and the young lady are both showing signs of improvement!"

Ji Yongchang's red eyes widened, and then he laughed wildly with great sorrow and then great joy, "Quick, send the prescription for the madam and the young lady to treat their illnesses today!"

The prescription was sent.

But it is a common recipe in the city.
But for many malaria patients, it is completely useless after taking it.

He immediately pulled over their personal maids and asked, "Madam and Miss, what else have you taken besides the medicine on the prescription?"

"Master, when the second young lady came to visit the mistress and the eldest young lady, she seemed to have fed them a small white thing..."

South star?

Ji Yongchang was stunned. He had never expected to hear such an answer. "Go and invite the second young lady!"

"No, I'm here."

Ji Nanxing appeared in front of him with a stack of papers filled with writing, and in his left hand was a pot of strong tea specially used to stay up late and stay energetic. "Father, there is no more special medicine available, but I may have a way to solve the epidemic. Let's go inside and talk."

##
In Ji Yongchang's study, the candlelight illuminated the inside clearly.

Ji Nanxing handed him the information in his hand and said, "Malaria is a disease caused by infection with Plasmodium. That is... this disease is caused by something similar to roundworms parasitizing the human body."

Considering Ji Yongchang's ability to understand, she tried to explain in plain language: "This insect is very, very small and cannot be seen by the naked eye, but it can be spread on the human body through mosquito bites.

It's summer now.
The time when mosquitoes breed,
That's why the epidemic broke out so quickly.

So the first step is to send people to clean up the places in the river where mosquitoes are likely to breed, and distribute mosquito repellent medicine or plants to the people inside and outside the city."

Ji Nanxing said as he handed him a bottle of floral water. "This is the mosquito repellent I just developed. Remember to use it with the mosquito repellent sachet."

Don't let yourself fail to resist the disease, you will be poisoned first.

Stack a double buff.

finished,

Let’s start talking about treatment.

In her time, there were already effective medicines for malaria made from quinine or artemisinin.

This was the medicine she gave to Wen and Ji Nanyue.

In the Points Mall, exchanging a tablet of quinine requires...
