Chapter 1040: Like a sponge absorbing water
Manbao touched his chin and thought for a while. Seeing that the last imperial physician had finished taking the patient's pulse, he took it again and nodded slightly after confirming it.
The prince and his men still had handkerchiefs tied around their arms, and seeing this, they hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
"The pulse is a little better, but we need to observe it for a few more days." Manbao looked at Doctor Zheng and others.
Doctor Zheng and the others nodded quickly, "That's right."
Manbao was very happy after completing his task. He stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, he didn't hurt his brain, did he?"
Doctor Zheng and the others looked at the Crown Prince and Du Yu together.
The prince looked at Du Yu with a sneer.
Du Yu was silent for a moment and then said, "Probably not."
Manbao breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Let's wait until tomorrow. If everything goes well, he should wake up before dusk tomorrow. If he wakes up, half of the battle is won."
Doctor Zheng and others nodded repeatedly.
The old lady, who had only brought her daughter-in-law in, heard this and asked anxiously, "Why is it only halfway through waking up? Shouldn't it be all right now?"
Manbao coughed lightly and said, "The wound on his body is large and there is a risk of inflammation, so we have to wait and see what happens next."
Doctor Zheng quickly explained, "The young master had internal bleeding, and Doctor Zhou was able to stop the bleeding by cutting open his abdomen immediately, saving him. However, how the wounds will heal after this depends on fate."
God’s providence…
Manbao couldn't help but glance at Doctor Zheng and said to the old lady, "Wounds are most afraid of dirt, so from now on, apart from the doctor and one or two attendants, no one else should come in or out. Oh, and do you have any empty rooms here? It would be best to clean up a clean one and move the patient in. This bed is too dirty."
The three imperial doctors nodded repeatedly.
The beautiful woman frowned and said, "But isn't it taboo for patients to be moved? What if they bleed again..."
Three Imperial Physicians: ...
Man Bao said, "The dirt is more dangerous than the movement. From the time he was brought back until now, there's been so much dirt on him, as well as the dirt brought in by everyone coming in and out. If you can control the movement of people, can you also control these dirt?"
The old lady thought for a moment and said, "Listen to Doctor Zhou and the imperial physicians. Have them clean out the side room. Don't put anything in there. Once it's clean, move Sanlang over there."
Everyone responded.
The imperial physicians could provide guidance on moving, and they even had much more experience than Manbao. They knew where to change clothes, how to change clothes, how to move, what medicine to prescribe, and what medicine to use...
Manbao followed them happily to learn. She would read every prescription they wrote before handing it to the servants.
The three imperial doctors didn't know Man Bao's background and thought she was checking the prescription. She occasionally pointed out a few medicines and asked them why they prescribed them that way and what the relationship between the emperor and his ministers was. They thought she was testing them, so they explained it to her in detail.
Manbao took careful note of them and felt that they were better than Teacher Mo in prescribing medicine for specific diseases. She planned to write down these prescriptions and make annotations after returning home, and then study them with Teacher Mo.
Bai Shan only listened once and then stopped listening because he didn't understand most of it.
Although he knew some medical knowledge due to Manbao's influence, it was too profound for him to understand. When he stood next to the prince, he heard him mocking the Du brothers.
He took two steps back and listened to the story with his ears perked up.
After Manbao finished reading all the imperial doctors' treatment plans for tonight, she patted her butt and stood up to leave. Imperial Doctor Zheng hurriedly tried to stop her, "Doctor Zhou, aren't you staying tonight?"
Manbao glanced outside and shook his head, "Forget it, it's not convenient. I'd better go home and come back tomorrow morning."
"But if people catch fire..."
"If it's really serious, just send someone to call me. We're in the same neighborhood, so we can walk at night." Man Bao said, "But when it comes to reducing fever, I'm afraid I can't compare to you."
Doctor Zheng: "Young Doctor Zhou, you're too modest. I've heard from Doctor Ji that you're an exceptionally skilled acupuncturist, and you have a set of techniques for reducing fever..."
Manbao asked, "Do you want to learn?"
Doctor Zheng's face froze, and he said awkwardly, "...I do want to learn, but..."
"I'll teach you," Manbao said with a smile, "The blood-enriching and fever-reducing recipe you mentioned earlier is recorded in a book at home. It's an improved recipe, and it also records..."
Doctor Zheng was silent for a moment before saying, "I can lend the book to Doctor Zhou to read for a while."
Manbao was extremely happy and felt that today's harvest was really huge.
She said goodbye to Doctor Zheng with a smile, then looked at the other two doctors and said, "Let's exchange medical skills together in the future."
The three of them smiled stiffly and nodded, all thinking the same thing: no wonder she had such medical skills at such a young age, she was bold and careful, but she was probably also thick-skinned.
Who would think of exchanging medical skills when they first met?
They have worked with Imperial Physician Zheng for many years, and their communication is usually superficial. There is also a limit to learning from each other. Every imperial physician has his own specialties and plans. If others learn from them, how can they gain a foothold in the Imperial Medical Bureau?
If the person who made this proposal was not a girl who was not allowed to enter the Imperial Medical Bureau, not only would they not agree, I am afraid that Doctor Zheng, who had a deeper connection with her, would not agree either.
Although I can also learn something from Manbao.
But they knew their own talents, and it was obvious that they were no match for Manbao.
The same knowledge cannot be mastered after learning, nor can it be mastered only the learned part.
Recalling how skilled Dr. Zhou was at opening the abdomen, finding the bleeding site, and suturing it, I wonder how many rabbits, pigs, and sheep he had dissected in private.
The two doctors shuddered, then looked at Doctor Zheng in unison. "Doctor Zheng, I think the tool kit used by Doctor Zhou seems to belong to Doctor Fan."
Doctor Zheng then said, "She once exchanged medical expertise with Doctor Fan when she was in Yizhou. Her family members said that Doctor Fan and she got along very well."
The imperial physicians sighed, "Imperial Physician Fan is a famous ulcer doctor. We didn't realize it before, but now that he's been transferred, we've discovered that there's no one in the Imperial Hospital who can inherit his skills. Sigh~~"
In the past, everyone looked down on surgeons, thinking they were always cutting things and were inferior. But now it seems that surgeons do have some advantages over them in treating emergency bleeding injuries.
"Although we've replenished the young master's blood, the most important thing is to rely on his own blood production to stabilize his body." Doctor Zheng was the first to come back to his senses. He glanced at the written prescriptions, selected one, and said, "Use this for the second prescription."
The two imperial doctors slowly came back to their senses. After examining the patient, they considered the matter for a moment and nodded, saying, "That's right. Let's do it this way."
Manbao found Bai Shan and said, "Let's go home."
The old lady tried to persuade him to stay, but Manbao refused. "Everyone in the mansion should know where we live. If the doctors can't diagnose my fever, they can come and get me. I'll come back tomorrow morning."
Seeing that she was young and a little girl, the old lady was worried about her family, so she said to the nanny beside her, "Send Doctor Zhou and Young Master Bai out, and have the housekeeper send them back personally, and prepare generous gifts."
When she was changing clothes just now, she secretly took a look at the bandaged wound on her son's stomach, and asked the servants, only then did she know that her son had half of his body stepped into the gates of hell. It was because of this that the prince killed the imperial physician Ji.
The next update will be around 8pm
