Chapter 230: Golden Wound Medicine
In the carriage, the third prince asked Zheng Sisi: "Why are you going to the medicine shop at this time?"
Zheng Sisi replied, "The last time I went to buy herbs, Doctor Liu asked me for the recipe for Yunnan Baiyao. I said I would give it to him when I found it. I took some time these days to write out the recipe and will send it to him today."
The third prince murmured: "What is Yunnan Baiyao?"
Zheng Sisi: "It's the powder I used to stop Liu Shitou's bleeding last time. It's very effective in stopping bleeding."
Hearing that it was a hemostatic drug with good effects, he became interested. He had been to the battlefield and knew that many people injured on the battlefield died from excessive bleeding. If there was a very good hemostatic drug, there would be fewer deaths on the battlefield and many families would have an extra pillar.
The third prince asked, "Can I see the prescription?"
Zheng Sisi took out a piece of paper and a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve pocket and handed them to the third prince.
The third prince opened the lid of the porcelain bottle first, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and said, "This seems to be better than the wound medicine developed by the Imperial Hospital and the military doctors."
Then the Third Prince leaned over and opened a small drawer under the seat, took out a small porcelain bottle, removed the wooden lid, and held his hand out to Zheng Sisi: "Smell it, this is a golden wound medicine, the best hemostatic powder on the market."
Zheng Sisi took it and put it under her nose to smell it: "Why is the smell so strong? I don't know much about medicine. I can ask Doctor Liu to compare it later."
The Third Prince took back the medicine bottle and capped it. "That's fine. If Yunnan Baiyao is more effective, can you sell me the recipe? I'll pay a high price for it."
Zheng Sisi glanced at him and said, "Am I the kind of person who only cares about money? This medicine can save lives. I was about to give this prescription to Doctor Liu. You still paid a high price for it. You are so rich and stupid!"
The third prince chuckled, thinking that Zheng Sisi was so adorable. He wanted to reach out and touch her head, but then he remembered what she said last time that he couldn't hit her on the head, so he forced himself to suppress his hand.
He said, "Our Lord of Anping is a righteous man who cannot bear to see the people of the world get hurt and die. You don't have to pay me. I will report to my father that it was you who gave me the prescription."
Zheng Sisi said indifferently: "There's no need to tell the emperor about such a small matter."
The third prince said seriously: "This is not a trivial matter. If the effect is good, it can save many injured soldiers on the battlefield. Sometimes a few more people and a little more strength on the battlefield can turn the tide of a battle."
Zheng Sisi understood this principle very well. It was also because several of her uncles and cousins were stationed at the border, where wars were common. She didn't want the family in Duke Zheng's Mansion who cared about her to be sad because of the loss of their loved ones, so she took out this prescription in front of the third prince.
But she still said: "I didn't think so much. Haha!"
The Third Prince still reached out and touched the top of her head and said, "It's okay, I can help you think about it."
Zheng Sisi looked at his hand as he took it back and said viciously, "Are you comforting a kitten or a puppy?"
The third prince was speechless. He could only put his fist under his nose and clear his nose. He smelled a faint fragrance, very elegant. The third prince thought that this must be Zheng Sisi's body odor.
Qingfeng's voice came from outside: "Master, County Master, we've arrived at the medicine shop."
The third prince responded: "Okay!"
Then he lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage. When he wanted to help Zheng Sisi out, Zheng Sisi jumped down by herself swiftly and walked straight to the door of the pharmacy, leaving the Third Prince's hand still stretched in the air. When he saw that the person had left, he could only take it back awkwardly.
Doctor Liu, who was taking the patient's pulse, saw Zheng Sisi coming. His eyes lit up and he continued to see the patient at hand.
Zheng Sisi motioned for him to continue and let her take a look at it casually.
After Doctor Liu finished his work with the patient, he came to Zheng Sisi and said, "Finally, you are here, County Lady. Have you found the prescription?"
When they met, Doctor Liu asked directly about the prescription, and it seemed that he really cared about it.
Zheng Sisi also said casually: "Well, I have been thinking about it for a long time these days before I found it. Take a look at the prescription."
