Her words awakened the dreamer!
Ge Qingyue's last sentence shocked everyone in the meeting room. They instantly recalled the scene where Li Zexuan took a porcelain bottle from Du E and fed a pill to Zhang Wenzhong.
Xuan Qing couldn't help but change his expression. Unlike others, he knew Du E's identity and knew what was in the porcelain bottle. That thing was a devil in the eyes of the world, but sometimes it was a life-saving medicine!
"Back then, Hua Tuo was a genius. He used a variety of herbs to synthesize mafeisan, which could be taken orally or applied externally. As long as the patient took the mafeisan with wine, he would fall asleep and lose consciousness. The doctor could use this time to perform surgery on the patient. When the surgery was done, the patient would wake up. The pill that I fed Zhang Wenzhong before was an anesthetic similar to Ma Feixan! "
Li Zexuan's expression became serious and said in a deep voice.
"Mafeisan? Isn't the formula of Mafeisan lost? Our Ge family searched for it for a long time but couldn't find it. Marquis, how did you find it? "
Ge Qingyue opened her eyes wide and said excitedly.
Ge Qingyue came from a super medical family like the Ge family, so she naturally heard of Mafeisan. Not only her, but the Ge family also spent a lot of effort to search for the formula of Mafeisan and the medical books written by Hua Tuo. However, after so many years, they didn't find anything substantial.
That was because Hua Tuo's medical books were lost a long time ago!
It was said that Hua Tuo treated Cao Cao's headache. After acupuncture and medicine, Cao Cao was cured. Cao Cao was very happy and wanted Hua Tuo to be his personal doctor. Hua Tuo didn't want to be a doctor who lived in the palace all day, so he refused Cao Cao.
Cao Cao wasn't easy to talk to. If Hua Tuo didn't agree, Cao Cao wouldn't let him go. Again and again, he had stayed there for more than two months in one go. Later, Hua Tuo lied that his wife was sick in bed for a long time and no one was taking care of her. He wanted to go home and wait for his wife to recover before coming back to serve Cao Cao. Cao Cao believed him and sent someone to send him home. After the person came back, he told Cao Cao that Hua Tuo's wife was sick, but he didn't want to be a doctor. Cao Cao was very angry.
Not long after, Cao Cao's head started acting up again. He had no choice but to send for Hua Tuo. Hua Tuo looked at Cao Cao's condition and pondered for a moment. He then said to Cao Cao, "If you want to completely cure your illness, you must first drink 'Mafeisan' and then cut open your skull to extract the Wind Saliva in your brain. Only then can you be completely cured."
Cao Cao was hesitant. In addition, the vile man secretly spoke ill of Hua Tuo. Cao Cao suspected that Hua Tuo had bad intentions and did not dare to ask Hua Tuo to treat him in time. Seeing this, Hua Tuo ridiculed Cao Cao in public. In a fit of anger, Cao Cao threw Hua Tuo into prison.
After Hua Tuo was imprisoned, he fell ill and realized that there was no hope for him to be released. Thus, he made up his mind to summarize his life's experience in treating people and pass it down to the later generations. It took Hua Tuo one year and three months before he finally finished writing it. It was called the Green Capsule Scripture!
Before Hua Tuo died, he gave the Green Capsule Sutra to a prison guard named Zhang Mingsan. After Zhang Mingsan received the medical book, he was afraid that Cao Cao would blame him. So, he sent the book back to his home and gave it to his wife to carefully store. Who knew that just as he left the prison, Hua Tuo died in the prison.
After Hua Tuo's death, the prison guard Zhang Mingsan was very sad. He swore to study hard and treat people to comfort Hua Tuo's soul in heaven. Not long after, Zhang Mingsan 'resigned' and returned home. When he happily walked into the house with his luggage on his back and recited the medicinal song, he was shocked when he looked up! He saw his wife burning the Green Capsule Scripture! Zhang Mingsan disregarded everything and ran up to save it. Unfortunately, it was too late. Only half of the book was left.
It turned out that Zhang Mingsan's wife did not want her husband to follow in Hua Tuo's footsteps after seeing what happened to Hua Tuo. Thus, she decided to burn Hua Tuo's medical book.
As a result, the Green Capsule Scripture, which was the culmination of Hua Tuo's lifetime of medical skills, was lost the moment it was born. The formula for Mafeisan and those miraculous surgeries also gradually disappeared from the memories of generations after Hua Tuo's death.
"I don't have the formula for Mafeisan. The anesthetic that I gave Zhang Wenzhong was made from Furong's fruit."
In the meeting room, Li Zexuan's gaze swept across everyone's faces. Then, he said something shocking.
"Furong?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was overwhelmed with shock (Xuan Qing)!
Sun Simiao could not help but exclaim, "Xiao Xuan, is this Furong the kind of Furong that His Majesty recently issued an edict and strictly prohibited all emperors?"
On the eve of the Dragon Sect's attack on Chang 'an, Li Zexuan had personally entered the palace to tell Li Er about the dangers of opium poppies. At that time, Li Er declared in front of Li Zexuan that after the Dragon Sect was eliminated, he would issue an edict to completely ban the Jade Lake holy water and list Furong as a forbidden flower. He would strictly prohibit all future emperors of Great Tang from touching this taboo.
Li Er also did as he said. In the afternoon after the rebels were eliminated, the imperial court issued an edict. It was first posted in Chang 'an, and then in the various provinces and counties of Great Tang. Lantian County was adjacent to Chang 'an, so the citizens had long seen this edict.
In addition, the imperial court later built a "drug rehabilitation center" in the south of Chang 'an City and locked up all the people of the Dragon Sect who were addicted to drinking the holy water of the Jade Lake. The news that Furong could make people addicted to it gradually became known to many people.
