Chapter 1526 Rules
Unfortunately, Xiao Yuanzheng is on duty today.
So when Manbao walked into the Imperial Hospital under the setting sun and handed in the medical records, Dean Xiao stood up nervously and asked, "Your Majesty, did you have an upset stomach?"
Manbao nodded. "The stomach and intestines caught a cold, and he ate too much. He probably had an inflammation."
Xiao Yuan was looking at the pulse diagnosis written by Man Bao. Seeing that she was the only one who made the diagnosis, he couldn't help but feel anxious, "Why did they only call you over?"
Manbao said, "I happened to be in Daming Palace at the time."
"The Imperial Hospital also has imperial physicians stationed there."
After all, most of the royal family are now in the Daming Palace, so the Imperial Medical Bureau naturally sent imperial physicians there. However, the two palaces are not far apart, so an imperial physician was also left in the palace.
Except for Zhou Man, all the imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau were on duty on both sides.
When treating the emperor, there must be two or more imperial physicians. Even if one of them only takes notes, it is a kind of testimony. This is the rule.
Xiao Yuanzheng thought Manbao didn't understand this rule, after all, it was her first time treating the emperor. Just as he was about to remind her, Manbao said, "Master Gu hinted from the beginning that it shouldn't be included in the medical records."
Since she also serves as the imperial physician of the Imperial Medical Service, Manbao must be well aware of the hospital's rules, and she understands these rules.
For this purpose, Bai Shan also studied it with her. Finally, after looking at many cases of the Imperial Hospital, the two came to a conclusion that the rule of the Imperial Hospital is to obey the emperor in everything. For minor matters, they follow the rules set by the emperor, and for major matters, they follow the emperor's personal decision.
Act according to circumstances based on this.
So Manbao understood the rules set by the emperor, and that was it.
After studying the rules of the Imperial Medical Service, the two felt that the Medical Service lacked the pride of a court official. How could it obey the emperor in everything?
The benefit came out at this moment. When Xiao Yuanzheng heard that Gu Zhong did not want to be implicated in the case, he immediately stopped saying anything.
Gu Zhong is the emperor's confidant, so these words were probably not said by Gu Zhong, but by the emperor, right?
Xiao Yuanzheng turned aside and let Manbao take the case.
Who knew that Manbao filled out the case file, put the pulse record and prescription in it, and then showed it to him, "Xiao Yuanzheng, this is my first time in a case. Do you think there are any problems?"
Xiao Yuanzheng: "..."
"Master Zhou, you don't have to show it to me specifically."
Man Bao said, "But doesn't it require two seals to treat His Majesty? There was no one around at the time, and you happen to be here now, so could you please stamp one for me?"
When investigating the case in the future, if there are any questions, someone will testify for her.
Xiao Yuanzheng: "Master Zhou, there's no need to say this explicitly."
Seeing that he couldn't get away, Xiao Yuanzheng was straightforward. He picked up the case file, looked at it carefully, and nodded, saying, "It's well written, there's nothing wrong with it. However, I haven't personally felt your Majesty's pulse, so I can't sign it for you."
Manbao didn't force it, nodded and said, "Okay, then let's file it like this."
Anyway, the rule of the Imperial Medical Service is that everything must be done according to the emperor's will. As long as there is no problem, the case files will not be checked.
Xiao Yuan was instructing Man Bao to file the case files. Seeing that they were alone, he simply sat down on his chair and sighed, "Your Majesty is too greedy for pleasure. How can you eat too much melon?"
Manbao also wanted to eat melon, so he gestured with his fingers and said, "I ate six."
Xiao Yuanzheng: "...This is too careless. Why didn't the servants remind him? How can he be so indulgent?"
Manbao didn't take it seriously. During festivals, when her sister-in-law made many delicious dishes, she couldn't help but eat more. She often prescribed hawthorn slices for herself to help with digestion, but...
"Your Majesty really shouldn't eat so many melons at once. You can split them up and eat two in the morning, two at noon, and two more in the afternoon before or after dinner."
Xiao Yuanzheng couldn't help but scold, "Don't talk nonsense, that's still overeating. Melon is cold, how can you eat so much in one day?"
"But the stomach and intestines usually tolerate it and don't get sick. After a few days, it will adjust itself."
Xiao Yuanzheng was shocked. It was the first time he saw an imperial physician arranging his own body in this way. It would be fine for ordinary people, just to satisfy their appetite, but you are a doctor, you are an imperial physician.
After a long pause, Xiao Yuanzheng finally swallowed his saliva and asked, "You didn't tell His Majesty this as well, did you?"
"No, I'm not stupid. There were many servants in the palace at that time. I don't know where the attendant is hiding. I don't want to leave my name as a traitor in the history books."
Dean Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, even if she was a fifth-rank editor and even if she was young, he would have to punish her on behalf of the Imperial Hospital.
"Don't say that again, especially to His Majesty and the royal family. If they really indulge in their greed and something happens, neither you nor I will be able to bear the consequences. Alas, Lord Wei will have to make another remonstration in a couple of days."
"I just ate a few more melons, that's not a big deal, right?"
"Of course not. Gastrointestinal inflammation can also kill people." Seeing Manbao's astonishment, Xiao Yuanzheng stroked his beard and said, "Drinking water can kill people, let alone eating melon. Is this surprising?"
"But aren't these all accidents?" Manbao said, "Deaths from drinking water are extremely rare. How can they be included in cases with identifiable causes?"
Xiao Yuanzheng: ...I'm talking to you about accidents, and you're talking to me about medical principles?
Xiao Yuanzheng suddenly didn't want to talk to Manbao anymore.
Seeing that she was about to continue rambling, Xiao Yuanzheng immediately spoke before she could, "Master Zhou, aren't you going back to Chongwenguan yet? I think it's getting dark, and the palaces will be locked up soon, right?"
Manbao was surprised to realize how quickly time passed and it was almost dark.
She immediately stood up, said goodbye and left quickly.
After all, she was young, and after leaving the Imperial Hospital, she ran to the Eastern Palace without paying any attention to her image.
Running fast in the palace was also taboo, but after the palace servants along the way saw clearly that it was Manbao, they looked up at the sky and silently pretended not to see him.
Manbao ran into the East Palace and then stopped to vent his anger.
Bai Shan was reading a book not far away and waiting for her.
Seeing her running in, he said "Hey" and asked, "What did you do so late?"
He said, "Today, your disciple, Dr. Liu, came to Chongwenguan specifically to ask you for advice on two illnesses she was unsure about. However, you were not there, so Dr. Zheng went with her."
After Manbao calmed down, he said, "I went to Daming Palace today. I took a boat there and went to look for wild duck eggs with Mingda Changyu and the others. You don't know, Daming Palace is really fun. It's not like here where the paths are marked out and people can only walk on the sidewalks. Many places over there are still deserted, but to make it look better, they spread a lot of grass seeds. Some of the roses are growing particularly beautifully. There are grasses everywhere..."
She had also dug up three plants in the past two days that were not found in the palace. Koko scanned and found that there were many plants that had not been included near the foot of the mountain. Unfortunately, she could not get there for the time being.
Hahahaha, I have successfully reunited with Gu Wanyin.
The big thing is done, I will update it tomorrow, yeah
