Chapter 177 Master Shi: You have experience
The doctor from the Liu Mansion, whose eyes were a little tired, suddenly widened, and he took the prescription with trembling hands.
After reading it, his pupils suddenly shrank: "This... was this something Prince Beile found? This recipe... is amazing!"
Before Wenjiu could say anything, he suddenly moved closer, staring at her with his energetic eyes: "Girl, who wrote this prescription? It's really wonderful! How did you think of using the herb Gelsemium elegans as the medicine? We have been thinking about it for a long time, but we don't know how to neutralize the poison. Once this prescription comes out, it may be able to cure the epidemic!" He patted his head as if he suddenly realized something.
Then he took out two prescriptions and kept on talking in a way that Wenjiu couldn't understand. Something like "For those with internal cold and external heat, sweating and fainting, use Si Ni Tang..." and other nonsense.
After warming the wine for a quarter of an hour, I felt that she seemed to be studying medicine in vain.
Doctor Liu finished his rambling and looked at Wen Jiu again: "Miss, please tell me, who wrote this prescription? Could you introduce me to someone? If I could talk to this person, I would have no regrets in my life."
Wen Jiu took a look at the old man, who looked very excited. He said, "I don't know where the Fourth Master found the prescription. I guess we'll have a chance later. Why don't we prepare the prescription first? Everyone's illness is the most important thing."
"Right, right, right." Doctor Liu slapped his forehead in annoyance. "Look at me! As soon as I saw the prescription, I actually forgot the important matter."
He immediately led Wen Jiu inside and said, "I'll go inform the other imperial doctors. If everyone knew that the Fourth Master had found a prescription, they would definitely be happy."
An hour later, the whole yamen was filled with the aroma of medicine. Unlike the previous gloomy and depressing atmosphere, it now seemed a little brighter and more cheerful.
Although there were few servants in the yamen, the imperial doctors all rolled up their sleeves and cooked medicine with high spirits, holding fans.
Among these imperial doctors, the oldest is over 70 years old, and all of them have smiles on their faces.
The most prestigious doctor there was named Liu, and even now he was cooking medicine with others, his beard trembling.
With trembling hands, he cupped his fists and said to the doctor beside him, "Brother Liu, when we finish this matter, please help us speak well of this to the Fourth Master and see if we can get this expert to give us some advice."
The imperial doctors beside him nodded after hearing this: "That's right..."
"Yes, this guy is really a genius in using medicine."
"Indeed, this man must be very knowledgeable. We have searched through all the pulse records and have never seen such a disease. I never thought it would be cured so quickly. I just gave the two maids medicine, and they are already recovering. After two more days of use, I am afraid they will be fine."
"Brother Liu, if you meet this person in the future, don't forget to introduce him to us!"
Although Liu Fuyi had been a royal physician for several years, his medical skills were not outstanding. This was the first time he was surrounded by so many people he once admired, but he could not agree to this. He could only clasp his fists and say, "I have no idea. I still don't know where the Fourth Master found this expert. But if we are lucky enough to meet, I will definitely tell you a few words..."
Everyone was very satisfied with the answer and started talking about the miracle doctor.
Not long after, another imperial physician came trotting back: "It's getting better! It's getting better! I gave the two guards medicine, and their pulses are gradually getting better."
"Great, that's great!" Doctor Liu said, "Then we can give Master Jiu the medicine. Let's all speed up. Once the medicine is ready, we'll deliver it as soon as possible."
Everyone responded in agreement, and morale was immediately boosted.
Wenjiu looked at everyone's happy faces and couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
These old doctors, who had seemed to be stumbling just before she brought the prescriptions, now seemed to be running even more swiftly than she was. They rolled up their sleeves and took care of patients without hesitation. This gave her a deeper understanding of the medical profession of this era.
Many people today consider Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to be ignorant and foolish. Wen Jiu wonders if this is because so few of these remarkable medical skills have truly been passed down.
She had been smug, thinking she had learned a lot of pharmacology. But now it seemed that what she had learned by cheating on others was nothing compared to what a doctor with decades of experience in medicine could learn.
People who can concentrate on doing one thing for decades, are serious and a bit stubborn, but they are really lovable.
Wen Jiu couldn't help but feel a little respect. She thought that she should take medical skills more seriously in the future.
The time for the medicine in his hand was almost up, so Wen Jiu stood up and said, "My fellow doctors, I have prepared the medicine. Why don't you take it in and give it to Master Jiu first?"
When everyone heard Wen Jiu speak, they immediately stood up and bowed to her respectfully. The leading doctor Liu said, "Miss, you have worked hard. Fortunately, Miss Wen sent the prescription in time to solve the urgent problem."
How could Wen Jiu accept their gift? He immediately bowed slightly and said, "The government office brought the situation under control so quickly, thanks to the great work of the imperial physicians.
You are all quite old, and if you were the elders in your families, you should really be sitting in the upper room. Now I have asked you to serve as such a crude servant, which is really shameful.
Without you, I'm afraid our Fourth Master's journey would have been very difficult. I've already said today that I'm very grateful for your help. Please take care of yourselves."
After Wen Jiu said this, all the imperial doctors were so happy that they smiled and said they were not worthy of the honor.
As doctors, everyone here has a kind heart, but after all, we all hold official positions. Officials inevitably have to think a little more carefully.
Although they had been busy following the Fourth Master for a long time, they hadn't come up with a suitable prescription. In the eyes of the royal family, their efforts were in vain. It was best not to dwell on the mistakes on this trip, but they didn't expect to hear such a statement.
Doctor Liu also liked Wenjiu very much. This delicate girl from the harem had been busy with them for so long without a single complaint. Instead, she was thoughtful and clear-minded, and spoke frankly. No wonder the Fourth Master thought highly of her.
Then he said gently, "We all have taken note of what you said, young lady. Let's send the medicine to Master Jiu first."
Doctor Liu also picked up his medicine pot and pointed to the pot next to him: "The preventive medicine has been boiled. Let's each drink a bowl."
Then he turned back to look at Wen Jiu and said, "Miss, why don't you pick up the jar in your hand and go in together to deliver medicine to Master Nine and Master Ten?"
Wen Jiu nodded and followed the two doctors from the Liu Mansion into the main hall.
Inside, Master Shi was startled when he saw Wen Jiu: "Little Fourth Sister-in-law, why are you here?"
Wen Jiu said, "I have nothing to do anyway, so I came to help."
Then he poured out a bowl of medicine from the medicine jar and said, "This medicine can cure Master Jiu's illness. Wait until it cools down a bit, then give it to Master Jiu."
The Tenth Master had heard the news a long time ago, but when he saw the medicine, he still couldn't help but show a bit of joy.
He picked up the medicine bowl and poured it into Jiu Ye's mouth.
"Wait, it's hot!" As soon as the words to warm the wine were finished, the Tenth Master spilled half a bowl of it with his rough hands.
The corner of Jiu Ye's mouth was burned red by him. Jiu Ye seemed to be a little more sober at this moment. He frowned and muttered something to himself, but it was not very clear.
Just as Doctor Liu was about to go forward to help, he suddenly heard someone outside shouting, "Hurry, someone, help lift him up."
Turning back, he saw Doctor Liu, carrying a large medicine jar, walking past the door. He was quite old and had an old back injury, so Doctor Liu was startled and immediately put down the jar and went out to help.
The tenth master had no choice but to turn to Wenjiu for help.
Wen Jiu was silent for a moment: "Don't look at me, I've only stuffed Buddha Jumps Over the Wall into a dead duck's stomach, but I've never stuffed medicine into anyone..."
Master Shi: "...I've never even force-fed a dead duck, so you do have some experience."
