Seeing Man Bao's persistence, Xiao Yuanzheng could only cough lightly and said: "Mr. Lu, why don't you go to the main hall and watch His Majesty?"

The emperor's illness improved. Wei Zhi and Zhao Guogong left the palace early in the morning and went home to rest. There was no need to keep imperial doctors in the main hall. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

The reason why I asked Dr. Lu to go at this time was just to get rid of him.

Doctor Lu rolled up his sleeves and left angrily.

Man Bao hummed softly, and Xiao Yuanzheng and the others looked down at her. If other colleagues were like this, they would definitely be angry, but now looking at Zhou Man who was so angry,

They weren't even angry.

Xiao Yuanzheng shook his head, sat down on the main seat, and then asked: "Doctor Zhou, may you find out what nitrate is?"

"Found it," Man Bao's consciousness sank into the system mailbox and glanced at Teacher Mo's reply, saying: "Nitrate is the crystal left after boiling sea water, while Glauber's salt is re-extracted nitrate. There are too many impurities in it.

It needs to be purified again."

Xiao Yuanzheng and the other three were stunned. Doctor Liu hesitated and said: "Then the so-called nitrate is Haiwei, isn't it? Glauber's salt is salt and salt?"

He looked at Xiao Yuanzheng and Doctor Fang uncertainly.

Doctor Fang: "...is it Pu Ni? Isn't there a pharmacy in the hospital that can treat intestinal abscess swelling and pain?"

Xiao Yuanzheng said: "According to what Imperial Physician Zhou said, this should be another name, but the saltpeter is taken from the salt lake, not the sea. Imperial Physician Zhou, why don't you check if it has the same effect?"

Man Bao also came to her senses now. She knew about Pu Ni, why didn't she think of it at the beginning?

She was a little annoyed, so she nodded, and decided to ask Teacher Mo later, but said: "Since we have Pu Ni, why not try it first? I will check it out and test it here."

Because she was not sure that Teacher Mo knew that the names of many medicines had changed with the passage of time.

Xiao Yuanzheng didn't know about the change of time, but he knew that the same medicine often has different names in different places and different doctors.

He didn't know if Zhou Man could find out the similarities or differences between Glauber's salt and Park's salt. After thinking about it for a while, he nodded, "Okay, let's give it a try first."

Glauber's salt may not be available, but plain salt is definitely available. This watermelon is difficult to find outside, but it is not difficult to find it in the palace. It is grown in the palace.

However, this thing is a product from the West after all, and may not be well adapted to the climate of the Central Plains. Not only is it not as sweet as the West, it is not as big as the West, and it seems that it is not as productive as the West.

Xiao Yuan was looking for Gu Zhong to ask for watermelons. In fact, Tai Hospital had its own purchasing channel, but he felt that it would be most useful to ask Gu Zhong at this time.

As soon as Gu Zhong heard that he was making medicine for the emperor, he immediately sent someone to get it. However, he was very curious, "This cold melon is as cold as melon, but it is not as sweet as melon. How can I use it to make medicine?"

Didn't Gu Zhong clearly say that His Majesty got sick from eating melons, and now he wants to eat cold melons to cure his illness?

When Xiao Yuanzheng heard this, he was afraid that the emperor would switch to eating watermelon in the future, so he quickly explained: "Your Majesty's illness is not due to eating watermelon..."

He paused and then said: "It seems that it is because of eating melon."

Gu Zhong:……

Xiao Yuanzheng couldn't help but slapped his forehead and said: "Oh, how can I say this? The melon that His Majesty ate was iced, and there were too many ice basins in the palace before, so he walked out for a while at noon.

It was when the hot air came out of the body that it entered the palace again, and the heat and cold were blocked on the surface of the body. When His Majesty ate the iced melon, the cold air in the body became even heavier, and because there was an ice basin in the hall, there was hot air inside.

So it’s hard to tell.”

Xiao Yuanzheng was also very sorry and said: "If your Majesty had taken the medicine prescribed by Dr. Zhou at that time, nothing would have happened."

But he didn't listen. He kicked off the quilt because of the heat at night, and it was cold late at night. He had a fever after alternating between hot and cold.

But this is not important, because it is not very serious, Xiao Yuanzheng and others can treat it, if the weather is stable.

However, the weather had been very unstable these past two days, and it was extremely hot and muggy the night before. The emperor's condition suddenly became serious.

Therefore, the emperor's illness was half due to himself and half to the weather.

Gu Zhong listened vaguely, but he understood the truth. The emperor's illness had nothing to do with the melons, as long as the melons were not frozen.

So normal melons can still be eaten...

Gu Zhong was very generous and directly asked people to bring baskets of watermelons to them. However, the Imperial Hospital did not have that much saltpeter. After all, this was medicine and no one would eat it, so Doctor Fang asked people to go out to the drug store to buy it.

.

The three of them squatted in front of the melon, looked at the prescription, then looked at the melon in the basket, and asked, "So the flesh of this melon must be dug out?"

Man Bao rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll do it!"

Xiao Yuan said politely: "What about this basket? Even if you only eat half of it, you can't eat so much, right?"

Man Bao looked for the welfare of his friends, "Why don't we go to Chongwen Museum? Let Bai Shan and the others help."

Xiao Yuanzheng directly rejected it, "It's hard to worry about it, just stay here and find a few maids and chamberlains to help."

After all, this medicine involves His Majesty, so it has little to do with the East Palace.

Man Bao was a little disappointed, but she quickly recovered. She picked out the largest melon, made a few gestures, and then used a knife to make a slit on the top of it.

The flesh of the melon was already red, so Man Bao found a spoon to scoop it out and eat it.

The maids and chamberlains who were called to help:...

So their job is to eat?

Xiao Yuanzheng studied the prescription carefully and said to them: "Don't take too much, only about one third."

Man Bao said while eating: "You can obviously eat half of it."

Xiao Yuanzheng: "...This is just in case. If the melon meat is gone, where can I go to find another watermelon in a while?"

Man Bao thought the same, tilted his head and thought for a while before asking: "Xiao Yuanzheng, can I go back to Chongwen Hall in the afternoon?"

Xiao Yuan just thought about the emperor's condition and nodded.

Man Bao and the palace maid asked for a large porcelain bowl. When they ate delicious melons, they dug out large pieces and put them into the bowl.

Xiao Yuanzheng saw it, glanced at the particularly well-dug melon meat in front of her, and then looked at the melon meat in the big basin in front of everyone, and couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?"

Man Bao said: "I want to take some back to Chongwen Hall."

After she dug it out, she handed it to a palace maid she knew well and asked her to put the bowl in an ice basin to keep it cold.

Xiao Yuanzheng looked at it and shook his head. Anyway, there was enough meat on the melon, so he couldn't help it.

Here in the side hall, we had a great time digging out the melon meat. The palace maids and chamberlains were hesitant to eat it at first, but after they found out that it seemed to be really edible, they started eating it.
