doctor knife in hand

The discovery of the effective medicine was not publicized for the time being. The ministers and clansmen only knew that Song Heng had entered the palace, and the prince's attitude became tough in an instant.

Seeing the commander of the imperial army staring at them coldly with a long knife, they could only go back to discuss while wondering.

This bought Lu Jin a few more days.

The penicillin solution is temporarily limited, and the concentration is still subject to discussion. In the end, three newly infected soldiers were selected in the isolated area in the west of the city. They have good physical fitness and strong self-conditions to resist the disease. With penicillin, the effect will be more obvious.

Everyone is looking forward to and patiently waiting for the changes in the conditions of these soldiers.

"Bed No. [-], had diarrhea five times the day before yesterday, vomited three times, vomited even after drinking water, rapid heartbeat, and lethargy. Yesterday had diarrhea four times, vomited three times, drank some porridge and sugar water, and was still depressed. Today... Up to noon now, there have been two diarrhea and one vomiting, and there has been no obvious change for the time being." Ding Xiang reported to Lu Jin with a record booklet in her hand.

"Bed No. [-], I had three diarrheas the day before yesterday, one vomiting, drank porridge and sugar water, my spirits were listless, and my heart beat faster. Yesterday I had two diarrheas, one vomiting, drank porridge and sugar water as usual, and let out a lot of lethargy. Today... until now, just He had diarrhea once, but he hasn't vomited yet... Doctor Lu, he seems to be improving." Ye Meixiang said pleasantly.

"Bed No. [-], the symptom was the lightest when it was discovered. It only started to have diarrhea twice, without vomiting, and today there is no diarrhea, and the body is a little hot. Doctor Lu, has he recovered?" Another medical soldier reported. .

Lu Jin flipped through their records and said, "Let's go and have a look."

The three soldiers were individually isolated, separated from other patient areas, with dedicated nursing staff tracking.

According to the brochure, the condition is indeed improving.

Although Lu Jin knew that penicillin was effective, he was still apprehensive before the results of clinical trials were obtained, but now he can finally relax.

"Continue to observe with medication until they recover. If these three can get out of the quarantine area, this will be the greatest hope, and the epidemic will be overcome."

"The spies came to report that the King of Qi has already joined the Qiang army, abandoned Pingyang City, and went all the way south from Taiyuan City. It will take less than ten days to reach the capital."

Song Heng opened the map and said to the prince.

"Brother Qi came here to fight for the emperor." The prince said, "Qiang Rong is very ambitious. This is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger. Even if the capital is broken, will he really help him to the throne?"

Song Heng nodded, "You don't believe that Qiang Rong will wholeheartedly help King Qi. King Qi is not stupid, and he won't believe it. The alliance between the two parties is inherently unstable. Now it's nothing but the plague in the capital, and the turmoil in the city makes them feel that there is a chance By the way, once the city gate is opened, the royal driver will leave the capital, which is exactly in their arms. But now there is a cure for the epidemic, and there is no need to leave the city. The enemy can also defend. The minister has ordered the Northwest Army to return to the defense to support the capital, and the edict of King Qin's escort has already been issued. It only needs to wait for a few days, and the danger of the capital can be resolved. After forming a stalemate, King Qi and Qiang Rong fought for the benefit The fragile alliance in the Qin Dynasty will soon disintegrate, the king of Qi has nowhere to go, but the Qiang Rong can still retreat from Dachu, and the troops from all sides will rush to them, and they will be the ones who are afraid of being surrounded."

The prince listened and responded, his heart calmed down a little, but when it came to the epidemic, he asked: "Don't you say that there is a medicine to fight it? Why don't you let Gu inform the capital, so as to calm the hearts of the soldiers and civilians?"

Song Heng said: "You wait for two more days, Ah Jin is leading someone to test the medicine."

The prince was stunned when he heard it, "So I don't know if it will work..."

Song Heng saw the Prince's expression of wanting to cry but not tears. He rubbed the bridge of his nose with a headache and said, "I don't understand medicine, so it's fine if you don't believe it. Don't you believe it, too? Are you still taking the medicine for asthma?"

When Song Heng said this, the prince put away his emotions and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Uncle, Gu's mood has been unstable recently, and I really can't control myself."

Song Heng sighed understandingly, and encouraged him: "You must stand up, the people of the world are still counting on you."

Just as he was talking, Song Yang walked in quickly, "His Royal Highness, my lord, Dr. Lu said that the raw materials and utensils can be prepared now. Here is the list, because it needs to be used immediately. The more people the better."

Song Heng had seen that list too many times just to extract penicillin. Song Heng knew what Lu Jin meant by saying that. He smiled in a low voice, handed the list to the prince, and said proudly: "Your Highness can rest assured now."

After speaking, he walked out in high spirits.

The prince glanced at the list, and quickly called to him, "Uncle, where are you going?"

"Order troops to resist the Qiang Rong."

"Then what's the matter with this list, why is there such thing as penicillium, where can I find it?"

"Moldy buns and stuff like that."

Can this cure?The prince was suspicious.

Lu Jin was developing a medicine to fight the epidemic, and the whole capital knew about it, and all forces tried their best to inquire about the prescription, but they didn't expect such a weird list.

The prince murmured: "No wonder Gu reminded Uncle Baobao to ask for a prescription. He didn't take it seriously. If this thing is not mentioned, even if it is placed in front of Gu, Gu will not think it is a raw material prescription for curing diseases."

Eunuch Ying said with a smile: "If you say that this disaster is caused by God's dissatisfaction with the emperor, I don't believe it. Otherwise, why would you send a genius doctor like Dr. Lu to help Da Chu get through his distress?"

"Then how many people have to be sent, Doctor Lu didn't say anything." The prince wondered.

Eunuch Ying thought for a while and suggested: "Since Uncle Guo gave this list, he must have been able to announce the news that there is a cure for the disease."

"Let the people in the whole city help find it?"

"To make trouble at the city gate just to survive, this is just to ask them to help find raw materials. If there is something to do, the chaos can be stopped."

The prince thought it was reasonable, "Then draw up a decree."

This edict was issued very quickly, and within an hour, everyone in the government and the public knew that Lu Jin had developed an anti-epidemic drug, and some people were getting better.

Shocked, joyful, and reassuring filled the minister's face, naturally there were also disappointment and frowns.

The minister who wanted to leave Beijing to open the city gate was not only to escape from the epidemic, but also to cooperate with the outside world. After all, the king of Qi was still waiting outside to capture the king, and he could force the prince to open the city. I didn't expect someone to seriously develop it. Anti-epidemic medicine was released.

That's a plague that turns pale upon hearing about it. Normally, a plague that would never disappear if tens of thousands of people died, how could there be a way to deal with it in less than [-] days?

They coincidentally sent people to inquire about the prescription and the truth, but they did not expect that there was a list following the edict.

"Penicillium, rice milk, charcoal, vinegar and alkali, what kind of prescription is this? Is the prince crazy? This is not curing the epidemic but aggravating the disease!"

"Leaving aside the Penicillium of Shilaozi, is it possible that the others are used for steaming cakes?"

"Then did Lu Jin develop the medicine, or was it just to bluff people and delay time?"

No matter what their thoughts were, those who saw this list were dumbfounded.

So what exactly is this drug?Has anyone really recovered?

The list was circulated layer by layer, and among the common people of Shilin, this kind of doubt became even more.

But no matter what, for the sake of Lu Jin's name, those who want to leave the city will inevitably hesitate because of their doubts. After all, their ancestors have lived here for generations, and the capital lives in a prosperous and stable life, and no one wants to leave their hometown just like that.

"Seeing is believing, otherwise I won't believe it. If the court is fooling the people, it will be even more abhorrent."

Suddenly, whoever made such a request spread the word and received strong support. The scholars who were forced to leave from the gate of the palace once again became excited.

"That's right, what if there is no such medicine, do you want the whole city to die together?"

"Then what should I do? The prince sits quietly at the gate of the palace and ignores him, and will be locked up if he moves a little bit."

"That's because our strength is too weak. Water can carry a boat and overturn it. Only the people, let the people question the court with us, will we have the answer."

"Yes, when you go to the street, the common people are ignorant, and they will be fooled by a few words. Who doesn't know that Lu Jin has such a relationship with the British Duke, and it is only normal to help the court."

"Walk."

However, as soon as he entered the street, he saw people rushing in one direction.

A scholar pulled a man and asked, "Uncle, what's the matter, where are you going?"

"Doctor Lu is here, and he said he wants to explain the situation to everyone in person, and he is at the gate of the palace."

"Doctor Lu is very skilled in medicine, he must have found the medicine, I'm afraid we won't believe it."

"But the prescription is too strange."

"You're not a doctor, you know nothing, don't care what it does, as long as it can cure the epidemic."

There was a lot of discussion among the people, but their feet were not idle, rushing towards the palace gate.

The amount of penicillin used is large, and it is difficult to extract. The imperial court is currently in a credit crisis, and the ministers are swinging from side to side. It is too slow to rely on layers of appeals from top to bottom.

After much deliberation, Lu Jin still had to come in person.

In front of the palace gate, a simple high platform was built, and the forbidden army surrounded the four sides to isolate the crowd.

For Lu Jin's safety, Song Heng deployed another team of personal guards to protect the left and right.

On the high platform was placed a batch of cultivated Penicillium petri dishes, which had already grown bluish-white hairs, and a series of other vessels and raw materials needed to extract penicillin. Except that there was no sterile environment, from this appearance, Lu Jin was I plan to demonstrate the extraction process live.

Things and equipment were still being transported to the high platform, but the crowd had already gathered quickly, and more and more, the huge palace gate was instantly full of people.

Then the gate of the palace opened.

The prince came out with the clan ministers. The ministers stood neatly on both sides of the high platform, while the prince and clan members sat behind the high platform and could clearly see the things placed on the high platform.

The ministers discussed with each other, they were well-informed people, and it was the first time that these strange things could be used to make medicines.

After everything was ready, Lu Jin took two apprentices and several doctors to the high platform.

"Doctor Lu has lost weight."

Almost all the people who can come to the gate of the palace are people from the east and south of the city. Lu Jin's People's Hospital is located in the busy East Street, and many people have seen him.

Lu Jin is a kind person. Although he is young, he has excellent medical skills, patience and carefulness, and gives a good impression.

Especially when major disasters occurred in central Beijing, he always rushed to the forefront, saving lives and treating illnesses without sleep. Although Lu Jin didn't say anything, everyone with a heart could see it.

This epidemic is even more so. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid more people would die.

Seeing his emaciated appearance now, some people feel distressed.

When Lu Jin appeared on this high platform, no matter how unimaginable the prescription was, most of the people already believed him, because it was Doctor Lu.
