Chapter 1043 Surprise
The emperor stayed in the Duke of Pi's mansion until late at night, and was escorted back to the palace by the imperial guards after visiting Su Jian.
Of course the Crown Prince and Crown Princess had to go back with him.
As soon as the three big bosses left, the Du brothers said goodbye and left with weak legs.
After the Duke of Pi waited for everyone else to leave, he returned to the main courtyard with his wife. "What's going on? I heard that Du Shu and Du Zhong gave our Sanlang a blood transfusion? Can this blood be directly injected into the body?"
Madam Su was also quite shocked today. She nodded and said, "I saw with my own eyes that she transfused blood into our Sanlang. The imperial doctors also said that Sanlang has improved a lot. He had lost too much blood before and was almost dying."
Duke Pi was lost in thought. "With this blood transfusion method, wouldn't that mean we could save a life?"
Madam Su sat down on a chair and poured herself a glass of water. "Don't let your imagination run wild. Doctor Zhou said that blood can't be transfused casually. If you give the wrong blood, the person might die. We need compatible blood."
Duke Pi was quite disgusted and asked, "Why is the Du family's blood the same as ours?"
Madam Su glanced outside and said in a low voice, "Your Highness's blood is the same as ours."
She frowned and said, "I heard from Doctor Xiao Zhou that this blood test is not accurate."
Duke Pi tilted his neck and said, "It's never accurate to begin with. Only you women believe in such things."
Old Madam Su glanced at him and snorted coldly. She just didn't believe it, just like he didn't believe it before.
The emperor, who was riding back to the palace in a carriage, was also surprised. "So this blood test is not accurate?"
Gu Zhong bowed and smiled, "It seems that this is not certain. Otherwise, these Du brothers and His Highness cannot be brothers, right? According to Doctor Xiao Zhou, one out of every four people in this world has mixed blood."
Gu Zhong carefully observed the emperor's expression and said softly, "I didn't expect that Doctor Zhou was really capable and actually saved the young master."
The emperor nodded slightly. "She is quite courageous. She opened the abdomen immediately and even persuaded the prince. Dalang has a bad temper."
Gu Zhonghan smiled and said nothing.
The emperor pondered for a moment and then asked, "Let Minister Feng investigate the matter of the nail. How could a nail be embedded in the sole of a boot?"
Gu Zhong agreed, then reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Zheng just said that the servant who passed on the message to him was captured by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's men. This..."
The emperor closed his eyes slightly and said, "Just take him. Once we find out that he is not guilty, we will release him."
Gu Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.
The water in the capital city suddenly became as hazy as the night, making it even harder to see clearly.
However, the head manager of Jishiditang, who was like a floating duckweed in the water, did not sleep a wink the whole night, and the next day he stayed in Jishiditang with dark eyes waiting for news.
Manbao and Baishan, who were also floating around, had a good dream that night. Early the next morning, they jumped off the carriage refreshed and went into Jishidiang to find the manager Zheng.
"Boss, how is the doctor Ji who was sent yesterday?"
When the shopkeeper Zheng saw them, his eyes lit up. He answered and asked, "The man was sent back to the Ji family. Doctor Ding is watching over there. He stopped the bleeding in time and saved the man. By the way, how is the young master? How is Doctor Zheng?"
"They were all fine when I got home, but now my son doesn't know."
Manager Zheng: "...Then, why are you here? Shouldn't you be going to the Su family?"
Manbao said, "I'm worried about you and Doctor Ji, so I came to check on you. Since you're all okay, I'll go to the Su family."
Manager Zheng immediately followed her and said enthusiastically, "Come on, come on, I'll take you there."
The servants of the Su family had been waiting for Manbao for a long time. As soon as they arrived, they invited him in. Even the manager Zheng who came with them was warmly received. He no longer had to wait in the front yard, but was invited to the hall for tea.
Manbao and Baishan carried baskets and went to the backyard to see Su Jian.
There were only two people in the room, a doctor and a servant.
Last night, two imperial physicians and two servants took turns on duty. The one on duty now was Imperial Physician Zheng, who was sleeping leaning on the couch, while the other servant was sleeping on the footstool.
The patient on the bed was also unconscious in a deep sleep.
Manbao walked up and touched his forehead. It was slightly hot, but the temperature was acceptable.
Manbao felt relieved, put down the backpack, and took out the needle bag from it.
The servant lying on the footrest was awakened. Seeing Manbao standing beside him, he jumped up and knelt on the footrest in panic, "Damn it, damn it..."
Manbao looked at him doubtfully and said, "Did I wake you up? You can't sleep well here. I'll look after him now, you go and get some rest."
Her voice was gentle, and the servant calmed down a little. He quietly looked up at Manbao, and when he saw that she didn't look angry, he breathed a sigh of relief and got up and said, "Thank you, Doctor Zhou. I'm not sleepy anymore."
Seeing Manbao lift the quilt, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Doctor Zhou, if you have any instructions, please call me."
Manbao thought for a moment and said, "Please get me a basin of warm water. I need to wash my hands."
The servant breathed his last, happily agreed, and turned to fetch some water.
Doctor Zheng had also woken up by now. He stretched and came in to ask, "How is it? Is your fever?"
"A low-grade fever."
Doctor Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. "That's not bad. With such a large wound, his internal organs must have been injured as well. Oh, and here's the prescription we plan to use today. Once he wakes up, he'll be able to have some rice and water."
Manbao nodded, "No need for oil or water, just some water and rice first."
She took the prescription written by Doctor Zheng and others and studied it carefully.
After the servant brought the water, he washed his hands and gave him acupuncture.
Doctor Zheng watched for a while and asked, "To reduce fever and stimulate blood circulation?"
Manbao nodded. "I don't plan to give him another blood transfusion. His bleeding has stopped anyway. From now on, his body will have to rely on its own blood production. It will be good for his health to let his internal organs recover as soon as possible."
Doctor Zheng nodded in agreement, thinking that two of Manbao's acupuncture points were well-targeted. He had never thought of acupuncture in this way before.
The two of them started discussing this.
After Manbao pulled out all the needles, he and Doctor Zheng looked outside and found that the people from the Su family had gathered in the yard and were talking to Bai Shan.
Doctor Zheng also had a deep impression of Bai Shan. After all, this man had confronted the prince twice yesterday.
God knows he was always worried, afraid that the prince would raise his sword and strike him at any moment.
Doctor Zheng coughed lightly and asked, "I forgot to ask you, why do you always bring that young master Bai with you?"
Manbao said, "That's my junior fellow apprentice. Is there any problem with him following me?"
The next update will be around 8pm
