Chapter 1258 Encounter (Reward for the book friend "Non-existent Lover")
Opening the abdomen is different from opening the feet. The incision on the abdomen is much larger and the bleeding will be greater. Once the patient wakes up or feels pain during the operation, he will definitely bleed profusely, which can be fatal.
Manbao also understood this, so he nodded and said, "I have two new anesthesia prescriptions on hand. I want to try combining acupuncture pain relief with anesthesia prescriptions within the next two months. Unfortunately, Jishiditang doesn't have many trauma patients, and not many people can use anesthesia."
That's true, but for ordinary injuries like a broken head or a cut on the hands or feet, there is no need for anesthetics. It's not safe either. What if a large dose of the drug kills a lot of people?
Therefore, doctors like these will not use anesthesia when possible.
"So how do you try?"
Manbao then said, "Let's try the effect of acupuncture anesthesia first."
As for drug anesthesia, that can only be left to Teacher Mo to study.
Doctor Liu and Manbao both looked down at Xiang Mingxue.
Xiang Mingxue: ...
Doctor Zheng coughed lightly and said, "Is the operation successful?"
Manbao turned his neck and nodded, then put the things in the toolbox away as he had to cook and sterilize them later.
Doctor Liu took one last look at Xiang Mingxue's pulse, and after confirming that there was no danger to his life, he nodded to indicate that it was okay.
Manbao finally found the time to comfort the patient, "Brother Xiang, it's okay. Just lie down and rest for a while."
Xiang Mingxue: ...
At this time, almost two hours had passed. Mr. Zhuang asked Doctor Zheng and Doctor Liu to stay for dinner, while Manbao and Xiang Chao gave medical advice.
For example, he had to ensure the room was clean and tidy, Xiang Mingxue couldn't move his feet, and if it hurt too much, he would ask her to give him acupuncture. Of course, there were also the soups and medicines to drink...
After giving the instructions, Manbao went to eat.
Doctor Zheng asked her, "Are you going to the palace to see the Empress soon?"
Manbao nodded.
Doctor Zheng nodded and said nothing more, but he felt that with Zhou Man's intelligence, he should be able to guess what he meant.
In fact, Manbao didn't bother to guess, because Bai Shan had reminded her long ago that if she entered the palace again, it might not be so peaceful.
But Manbao was not very scared. In fact, she was a little curious about the prince's illness.
Before leaving, Manbao removed the needles from Xiang Mingxue's body and said, "After the needles are removed, the pain will gradually return between a quarter and two quarters of an hour. Xiang Chao, please help me record how long it takes for him to start feeling more and more pain, and when it feels the most painful. I'll come back this afternoon and take a look at his condition and give him another acupuncture treatment."
Xiang Mingxue was now certain that she was using him as an experiment.
But he just sighed.
The people in the palace seemed to be well-informed. Instead of going to Jishiditang, they came directly to her doorstep to pick her up.
Manbao raised his eyebrows, changed into the clothes of a young eunuch, and went out with Daji. He smiled at the carriage coming from the palace and said, "Let Daji take me there today. You can just walk in front."
The young eunuch from the palace hesitated for a moment and then agreed, driving the carriage to the front.
Manbao jumped off the carriage and walked forward with the little eunuch, carrying the empty basket as usual. After the guards checked them, they waved their hands to let them go, and a sedan chair came out of the palace.
The Third Prince sat on the sedan chair, looking down at Zhou Man and asked, "Which palace is this servant from? I've never seen him before."
The young eunuch was so frightened that his face turned pale. He quickly knelt down and pulled Manbao.
Manbao, who had her head lowered, hesitated for a moment before also kneeling down, still keeping her head down and saying nothing. The eunuch next to her said in a low voice, "Your Highness, we servants are from the Eastern Palace."
The Third Prince stared at them for a long time, then smiled and said, "I'm familiar with the people in Big Brother's palace, but you look unfamiliar."
He looked at the guard standing beside him with his back bent, and asked in a deep voice, "Have you checked everything? Don't let anyone in with unclear credentials."
The guard lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I have checked everything."
The Third Prince sneered and then pressed his hand. The eunuch beside him said, "Fall—"
The sedan chair then came down.
The Third Prince got off his sedan chair and landed in front of Zhou Man. He looked down and saw that she had her head lowered, so he could only see her hair and back. He snorted coldly and said, "Let's go."
After saying that, he took his men out of the palace.
Manbao thought for a moment that these words were addressed to her, so she straightened her back and was about to stand up, but the young eunuch beside her quickly grabbed her, and the two of them continued to kneel with their heads lowered.
When the footsteps faded away and he could even hear the sound of the carriage leaving, the young eunuch hurriedly helped Manbao stand up.
Manbao turned his head to look at the departing carriage, then looked at the pale-faced eunuch and the guard with a bad look on his face, and couldn't help but sigh.
She finally understood what Bai Shan said, "Once you are in the officialdom, you have no choice."
She shook her head and asked the young eunuch, "Didn't they say that the Third Prince was going to be relocated? Why hasn't he left yet?"
The young eunuch was startled by her question. He looked around and whispered, "Auntie, please keep your voice down. He will be leaving tomorrow. He should be coming to the palace today to say goodbye to His Majesty and His Majesty."
That's unfortunate; she should have come a little later.
Manbao said, "Let's go."
The guard also heard what they said and breathed a sigh of relief. He felt a little better. He just hoped that the Third Prince would not remember who he was because he was in such a hurry to leave.
The prince was also in the Queen's palace, but his face didn't look very good and he seemed to be angry. Man Bao guessed that he must have just had a quarrel with his brother.
The queen didn't seem to be in a very good mood, but facing Manbao, she still forced herself to cheer up and take Manbao's pulse.
Manbao felt her pulse for a long time, and as usual, he advised her to relax, and then prepared to give her an acupuncture.
The queen wanted to say something, but after looking at the prince, she closed her mouth and went into the inner room to remove her clothes and give her acupuncture.
This time, even after all the needles were inserted, the queen did not fall asleep. Instead, she was very energetic and said to Manbao, "Miss Zhou, please go to the outer room and have some tea and snacks. I will let Aunt Shang take care of me here."
Manbao agreed, glanced at the needle, and then stepped back from behind the screen.
The prince was sitting at the table drinking tea. There were only two or three palace servants in the hall, and everyone else had left.
Manbao came out and saw him and couldn't help but pause. The prince raised his eyelids to look at her and said, "Come and sit down."
Manbao stepped forward, bowed, and sat down.
The prince asked, "How is my mother's illness?"
"It's much better. Although it can't be cured, it's under control. After two more acupuncture treatments, it can be reduced to once every seven days. When the situation gets better, it can be once every ten days."
The prince looked at Zhou Man curiously and asked, "It's strange! You're obviously not that old, how did you learn so many medical skills?"
Manbao thought for a moment and said, "I have a good teacher and many medical books."
See you tomorrow
