"A Furong's fruit~? Isn't this kind of poisonous?"

When Li Er and Li Chengqian heard this, they were immediately surprised. Not only Li Er knew about A Furong, but Li Chengqian also heard about it. After all, there is now a "drug rehabilitation center" in Chang'an City. Everyone is locked in!

Li Chengqian also heard that those people looked like crazy whenever they were "addicted to drugs", which is enough to show that A Furong is terrible, but now Li Zexuan actually said that the anesthetic pills that Zhang Wenzhong took were made of A Furong, how is this? Don't let him and Li Er be shocked.

Seeing that Li Er and Li Chengqian were both shocked, Li Zexuan quickly explained: "Your Majesty, everything in the world has two sides. Some drugs are poisons in some cases, but they are life-saving medicines in some cases! This A Furong can make People numb the pain and feel refreshed for a while. Long-term use is indeed harmful to the human body, but this thing can make people forget the pain for a short time, and it can be used for pain relief for patients! It is almost equivalent to the effect of Huatuo Ma Fei San!"

Hearing this, Li Er frowned, and after a moment of silence, he muttered: "There is a Taoist saying that all things are mutually reinforcing, so it seems that this is really the case!"

Li Zexuan said with a smile: "That's right... Your Majesty, through this incident, I intend to vigorously develop this method of treating patients in the Datang United Medical Center. Although Hua Tuo's medical book "Blue Nang Jing" has been lost, it can cure diseases. The method of directly excising the lesions is still worthy of our reference.

Today's doctors focus on yin and yang balance and internal recuperation, while Hua Tuo's medical skills are more simple and direct. He believes that complete medical skills must be cultivated both internally and externally, so that more diseases can be cured and more diseases can be cured. suffer! The boy who was cured of the disease of intestinal carbuncle and pus is the best example! "

After listening to Li Er, he couldn't help but look thoughtful. After a while, he opened his mouth and said: "The medical skills are broad and profound, you are under the tutelage of Lingxu Zhenren, you know more about the medical way than I, since you think that Hua Tuo treats patients The method is worth learning from, so let’s do it! At least in the future, there will be patients who often suffer from purulence, and the Datang United Medical Center will also be able to treat them~!”

Li Er certainly hopes that Li Zexuan can push the medical level of Datang to a new height. Yugong, this move can benefit all people, and privately, the medical level of Datang is high, so he can live longer as an emperor, right?

After all, this is a good thing for others and for oneself!

Li Zexuan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty Shengming! However, this kind of treatment method of excising the lesions often requires the anesthetic that the minister just mentioned, and this anesthetic is refined from the fruit of Ahibiscus. If you want to implement this kind of treatment If you are sick, you must plant Ahibiscus!"

"Huh~? Nonsense!"

Li Er heard the words, and then realized the real purpose of Li Zexuan's mentioning this matter, he glared and said annoyed: "I only issued an edict a few days ago to completely ban A Furong in the Tang Dynasty, and strictly order the emperors of future generations. Don’t get contaminated with this thing, and now you tell me that you want to plant Ahirong, doesn’t this make me go back on my word~?”

Speaking of this, Li Zexuan couldn't help covering his face and beating his chest, because Li Er's order to ban A Furong was mainly due to him. Now it seems that he really shot himself in the foot!

But then again, things like A Furong must be banned, there is no doubt about this, because this thing is too harmful to the common people! But for doctors, this thing is too important, and it should be treated in special circumstances!

"Your Majesty, Ahirong is easily addictive, and it should be banned, but it is an indisputable fact that it can be used to cure diseases and save people. We can't give up eating because of choking! In fact, we can plant some Ahirong in a small area, and the court will come here. Management and control are specially used to cure diseases and save people!"

After a moment of silence, Li Zexuan suggested to Li Er.

This is actually very similar to the modern opium poppy control system. Of course, ordinary people are strictly prohibited from planting this stuff, but the state will specially plant some for pharmaceutical use, because many analgesics are made of this stuff.

"What you said is reasonable, but as the ruler of a country, as the saying goes, you have no jokes, and I will never go back on your word! There is no room for negotiation on this matter!"

Li Er frowned and waved his sleeves.

The scene was at a stalemate for a while.

After a while, Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said, "Imperial Father, I have a plan, maybe we can get the best of both worlds!"

Li Er suddenly regained his spirit and said, "You say it!"

"Yes! Father!"

Li Chengqian bowed his hands, and then said: "My son thinks that since this A Furong was born in Tianzhu, why don't we secretly purchase a batch every year in the name of the imperial court, and use it to treat diseases. Father, you only need to start from the source. It is enough to control the use of A Furong! In this way, it will not only meet the needs of the Datang Medical Center, but also will not embarrass the father!"

After hearing Li Chengqian's idea, Li Zexuan's eyes suddenly lit up. Isn't this almost equivalent to the plantation plan implemented by Britain in the modern world? It's just that at this time, Tianzhu was controlled by the Jiedi Dynasty, not a colony of the Tang Dynasty!

In the previous life, at the beginning of the sixteenth century, after Portugal occupied India, they began to cultivate opium poppy and produce opium in large quantities. Due to the amazing profits of opium, they began to dump them into China. Later British merchants frequently clashed with Dutch and Portuguese competitors in the Indian Ocean.

In 1612, the East India Company formed by the Emperor defeated the Portuguese and made them favored by the Mughal Emperor Jahangir. Later, with the completion of the British domestic industrial revolution, the British

The overall national strength has become unprecedentedly powerful, and India has basically become a British colony.

In the 18th century, China's demand for opium was very high. In order to reverse the trade deficit and weaken the national strength of China, a major eastern country, the East India Company frantically cultivated opium in India and exported it to China.

Although the then Manchu Qing government had always prohibited the import of opium, and reiterated the ban on opium in 1799, the East India Company still smuggled opium from Bengal to Guangzhou, China and other places through traders and intermediaries, with an average of 900 tons per year. The continuous import of opium into China caused a huge trade deficit between China and the UK. Although China exported tea and silk, it still failed to prevent the problem of a large outflow of silver. In 1838, when the amount of opium imported into China was as high as 1,400 tons, China had to impose the death penalty on the smugglers and sent the imperial commissioner Lin Zexu to supervise the smoking ban.

Of course, the consequence of the smoking ban was the Opium War of 1840, which eventually led to the Qing government ceding Hong Kong Island to Britain.

Li Chengqian's routine of planting almonds (that is, opium) under the guise of other countries' land is very similar to that of Britain at the time. Li Zexuan had to think about whether the future Tang Dynasty should embark on the road of colonization, encroaching on Tianzhu, and then using Tianzhu's Land, plant hibiscus wildly, and dump it to other countries!

Although this method is not in line with humanism, it is the safest method of "subduing the enemy without fighting" for those small neighboring countries that are hostile to the Tang Dynasty!

I don't know if there are any people on that piece of land in Great Britain. If they do, they will sell opium there as well, which will be regarded as repaying their own lives with their own way!

Li Zexuan thought to himself.

I have to say that our classmate Li Zexuan is very vengeful!

Seeing Li Zexuan's eyes shifting, Li Er gave Li Zexuan a thoughtful look, and asked lightly, "Marquis of Yongan, what do you think of the Prince's proposal?"

Hearing Li Er's summons, Li Zexuan suddenly recovered from his deep thoughts, he quickly shook his head, got rid of the "evil" thoughts in his mind, and then cupped his hands: "This minister agrees with His Royal Highness's proposal, but the imperial court is here for the convenience. Strict control must be done, and A Furong is strictly prohibited from appearing in the public!"

Li Er nodded and said: "Well, it should be so! I will issue an edict that anyone who sells A Furong without permission will be punished with death! I will never allow this thing to spread among the people of the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Er also listened to the reports of the drug addicts in Chang'an City's "drug rehabilitation center". He had to be thankful that he had such a well-informed minister as Li Zexuan. The Tianlong Sect has completely spread in the Tang Dynasty, and the situation will be completely out of control by then!

"Your Majesty Shengming~!"

Li Zexuan bowed his hands and said.

"Well, do you have other things~?"

Li Er nodded, and just as he was about to lift his foot to leave, he asked again.

Li Zexuan thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I have something else to do! It's about the telegraph relay station!"

"Oh? What happened to the telegraph relay station? Come on!"

Li Er raised his brows and said.

"Go back to Your Majesty, the telegraph relay station must use electricity. Since the relay station consumes a lot of electricity, the battery produced by the workshop alone cannot solve the problem, and Bingzhou and Yunzhou are not necessarily suitable for the construction of hydropower stations, even if Suitable for construction, but also time-consuming and labor-intensive!

Therefore, the minister taught Qingque a method of using thermal power to generate electricity, but the minister will be entering the military camp in the next two days, and I am afraid that I cannot give Qingque detailed instructions, so I implore Your Majesty to allow the minister to communicate with Qingque in the army. ! "

"Thermal power generation? Fire can also generate electricity~?"

Just like Li Tai, Li Er and Li Chengqian also widened their eyes in surprise when they heard about the method of using thermal power to generate electricity.

Li Zexuan had to explain: "Your Majesty, whether thermal power or water power is used, the essence is to convert thermal power and water power into power, and then convert it into electricity, which is nothing magical! However, there are some technical problems in the middle that require green energy. Que and the teachers and students of the academy went to conquer together, so the minister begged His Majesty to grant the minister the convenience of communicating with Qing Que in the army!"

Li Er seemed to understand, but after pondering for a while, he nodded and said, "That's right! I will mention this to Duan Zhixuan in person. You can bring a telegraph into the barracks. If necessary, Duan Zhixuan will take care of you. His cronies are assigned to you to watch over the telegraph!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty~!"

Li Zexuan quickly cupped his hands.

If you can specially bring a telegraph to join the military camp, then the communication with Li Tai will be much easier!

"Well, if you have nothing else to do, I will go back to the palace!"

Li Er nodded lightly and said softly.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Li Zexuan bowed and saluted.

Li Chengqian hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said: "Father, my son has not been to the academy for a long time. I want to see more here. I will return to the palace in the afternoon, and I beg for the permission of the father!"

Li Er gave Li Chengqian a thoughtful look, and said lightly, "Yes!".

After all, he turned around and left, and went to join Empress Changsun and Princess Changle.
