Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 138
Chapter 138 The Dawn Is in Front of Us
“Bai Junzhuo, a 24-year-old national-level microbiologist, died at 10.43 a.m. On June 7, 2014 after suffering an infection while studying archaea X,” a cold, mechanical voice echoed in his mind.
Yes, the archaea X, which she used in modern animal experiments, reacted exactly the same way.
She remembered that everyone at the research facility had told her not to try to revive the archaea. It was not a virus. It had been sealed in the soil for so long, but it still retained its vigor like a virus. This proved that its infectivity was as strong as its vigor. However, he didn’t listen to his advice and insisted on trying to conquer this ancient creature. As a result, he was infected by it and even died.
Bai Junzhuo was glad that she remembered what had happened before. Her mind clearly retained all the information about the bacterium, its enzymes, its nucleoid, its mode of transmission, and its weaknesses!
Back then, he was only one step away from completely controlling and conquering this bacterium, but at that time, he was infected and died. Perhaps the reason why the heavens sent her back to ancient times was to continue the mission that she had not completed before.
Thinking of this, she cut a hole in the infected and uninfected mice, injected pus from the patient’s body, and sewed up the wound. After waiting for about two hours, the sickly dying mouse’s illness eased up, and the other one, although much weaker, showed no signs of developing the disease at all.
Sure enough!
Bai Junzhuo asked the palace servants to take out these used mice and burn them. He immediately rushed to the west inner courtyard and immediately said to Yin Xun, “I have a way to control this plague!”
Yin Xun’s eyes lit up with joy as he hurriedly asked, “Is there a way so soon?”
“Of course,” Bai Junzhuo nodded, “you have to quickly decree for all the doctors in the city to cooperate with me.”
Yin Xun nodded and took out a token from his body. He handed it to Bai Junzhuo and said, “There’s no need for a decree. Just take this.”
Bai Junzhuo took the token and saw that on the front of the token, there was the word “Oracle” engraved on one side and the word “Yin” engraved on the other side. There was a lifelike dragon wrapped around the word.
Bai Junzhuo put away the token and said to him, “It’s not too late. I’ll leave the palace now.”
Just as she was about to leave, Yin Xun grabbed her and said, “Wait, I have something to ask you.”
Bai Junzhuo said anxiously, “Let me go out of the palace to do some serious business first. If you have anything to do, wait for me to come back.”
“It won’t take long,” Yin Xun continued to hold her wrist tightly, staring at her. “You go to the Little Manchu Palace and take care of Royal Brother’s concubine?”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and whispered, “She was the one who provoked me first. She sent someone to assassinate me.”
“Assassinate you? She is a concubine. You have nothing to do with Royal Brother. Why did you send someone to assassinate you?” Yin Xun raised her head and asked her, “What is your relationship with Imperial Concubine Shu? Why are you standing up for her?”
“We are good friends. My friend was bullied, just like myself. Of course, I have to stand up for her.” Bai Junzhuo smiled and said to him.
Yin Xun frowned and said, “Friend? You lived in Luoyang before. She was Fu Hou’s daughter. How could you know each other?”
“She has been living in the countryside and had a strange illness. Once she saved me, I cured her illness and we became good friends.” Bai Junzhuo stretched out his hand to smooth his eyebrows and said, “Have you forgotten? I also asked you to send someone to send her back to Xuchang.”
Yin Xun thought about it carefully. It seemed that something like this had happened. After hesitating for a while, he said coldly, “No matter what, she is the daughter of the Fu Clan. You are not allowed to get close to her.”
“It’s alright. Although she is the daughter of Fu Hou, she has a deep hatred for the Fu Clan. Furthermore, she loves the Emperor wholeheartedly and stands on the Emperor’s side.” Bai Junzhuo said.
Yin Xun touched her face and shook his head, “You’re too naive. No matter how much she hates the Fu Clan, she still has a bloodline with the Fu Clan. It’s impossible for her to unjustly betray the entire clan for her own sake.”
“No, she’s a good person!” Bai Junzhuo continued to argue.
“A good person? Do you think a good person can survive smoothly in this harem? A good person can live until she is pregnant with the Dragon Child?” Yin Xun earnestly said to her, “Listen to me and do as I say. I’m protecting you!”
Bai Junzhuo stared at him. This was not easy. Her boyfriend was jealous of her best friend. What should he do?
“Also, no matter what happens in the future, you are not allowed to provoke the concubine in the harem. You can tell me that I will stand up for you.”
Bai Junzhuo was speechless. He still had the nerve to say that if he hadn’t thrown himself onto the dragon bed last night, would they have misunderstood? Can you not point the spear at her one by one?
Yin Xun pinched her face and said, “If you dare to act so foolishly again, I will lock you up and not let you out for the rest of my life.”
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly smiled and hugged him. She said softly, “Didn’t I dare to act rashly because of your protection? Don’t be angry. I know that I was wrong, and I won’t dare to do so in the future.”
Yin Xun couldn’t bear to say anything more about her weakness. He rubbed her head and said, “Go.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded and took advantage of Yin Xun’s carelessness to imprint a mouthful on his face. Then, he immediately jumped away, waved his hand proudly, and ran out of the room.
Yin Xun stroked his face in surprise, then narrowed his eyes and looked at her lively figure.
Wait, I’ll deal with you when I get back!

Not long after, Bai Junzhuo left the palace under the escort of Lu Kang and Shen Qing. She ordered all the doctors in the city to gather at Taibai Pavilion. After everyone was almost here, Bai Junzhuo took out the gold medal in his hand and said, “I am the imperial physician sent by His Majesty to control the plague. I have just developed a prescription for curing the plague and have not tested it with a real person. Now, call all of you here and ask for your opinions.”
All the doctors looked at each other. After a long time, a white-haired old doctor said, “Your Excellency, please speak.”
“I wonder if you have examined the corpses of those who died of illness,” Bai Junzhuo explained calmly. “Apart from skin ulceration and bleeding, their internal organs also have extremely bad lesions. Their spleens are swollen and their livers are stiff and brittle, and they are decolorized. They look like white tofu residues.”
A few doctors nodded and said that they had dissected the corpse, and what they saw was the same as what Bai Junzhuo had said.
Bai Junzhuo nodded and continued, “I have seen this disease before. It can be relieved by decocting Agarwood, Eucommia ulmoides, Angelica dahurica, Magnolia officinalis, Phellinus communis, Red Euphorbia, Mercy Mushroom, Realgar and Thousand Gold Seed Cream. As for the radical cure, we still need a medicine.”
“What?” The doctors asked in unison.
“The pus from the patient’s wound.” Bai Junzhuo replied.
“How is this possible?” A doctor immediately objected, “We all suspect that this pus is causing other people to contract the disease. You actually want to use this pus to treat the disease?”
Bai Junzhuo did not know how to explain the protective effect of T-cell B-cell to them, nor did he know how to discuss the immune response with a group of ancient people. After a long silence, he probed and asked, “Do you know about smallpox?”
“Of course I do.” Many doctors said.
Bai Junzhuo heaved a sigh of relief. Since they knew about smallpox, it was much easier to explain it. So, he wanted to speak. Suddenly, he heard someone say, “Oh right! Why didn’t I think of it?”
Bai Junzhuo’s voice was somewhat familiar. He looked carefully at the owner of Ji Citang who had argued with her yesterday.
“There is a record in ‘Elbow Reserve Emergency Prescription’ that when one is sicker than years old, one still suffers from sores on the head and body. In an instant, it turns around and is like a fire sores. All of them are dressed in white ointment. They will die as soon as they are decided. The dramatists will die more often.” The boss said a lot of classical Chinese and then said, “At first, I thought that the disease was similar to smallpox, but it was much more severe than smallpox, so I was at a loss. I didn’t expect that since it was similar, I could use the same method to prevent it.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded. This was great. The dynasty’s medical skills weren’t too backward, so he could still communicate with them.
She said: ‘I read a book of medicine that tells me how to treat smallpox. It can be prevented by dipping cotton into a normal person’s mouth and nose, or by opening an opening in a normal person’s body and injecting the vaccinia syrup of a person with smallpox.’
Everyone came to a sudden realization, but the owner of Ji Ci Hall immediately asked, “Sir, what you said is only a method to prevent illness, and your prescription just now, I don’t see anything special. Can it really cure people who are already sick?”
Bai Junzhuo glanced at him. This person was indeed not bad. Every time he asked, he would come up with an idea. In the future, he would definitely receive him to do something on his side.
Bai Junzhuo did not answer him. Instead, he asked, “May I know your name?”
“I’m Zhang Liangyan.”
Bai Junzhuo nodded, “I don’t know if the prescription is useful, but these medicines are completely incompatible. Even if they can’t be cured, they won’t be any worse. I think I can try them.”
Everyone was silent for a moment, but there was no longer any objection.
“Therefore, the first thing we need to do now is to take the pus from the patient to prevent normal people from getting sick. The second thing is to use my prescription to treat the patient. The third thing is to find the source of the disease and prevent it from happening at all.”
“Source?” Someone was puzzled, “The plague descended from the sky. Could there be a source to follow?”
Bai Junzhuo glanced at them. Sure enough, he was still an ancient person. He actually felt that the plague had descended from the sky.
However, the truth was that it was an eternal truth that one would not die unless one died. It’s like eating a civet triggers SARS, eating an ape gets Ebola, and all the plagues have been caused by humans since ancient times.
Bai Junzhuo thought for a while and didn’t know how to explain it in words that the ancient people could understand. He simply didn’t explain and said, “There are a lot of patients in the city. I need the cooperation of all of you here. When the plague is under control, His Majesty will definitely not treat any of you unfairly. Follow what I said just now and do it.”
The doctors accepted the order and Bai Junzhuo also stood up to join them. However, Lu Kang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, “Miss Bai, I seem to know where the source of this plague is.”
