Chapter 866 From the Palace
It’s no wonder they were suspicious, after all, they were just looking for a yard in the western suburbs yesterday.
Bai Shan couldn't help swallowing, stood up and was about to talk to the young man over there, but Manbao grabbed his sleeve.
She then stood up and turned to look at the young men with a sharp gaze.
The young men being stared at by the two men: ...
Only then did they realize that they were talking about the two young boys and girls and others could hear them.
After all, he was his younger brother's guest, so Qi Dalang felt quite rude and quickly stood up to apologize. However, Manbao looked directly at Guan Erlang and asked, "Are you the son of Master Guan from Guanjiazhuang outside the city?"
Guan Erlang was stunned, looked at Manbao for a while, then stood up, bowed and said with a smile: "I haven't been in Yizhou City in recent years. I wonder which family my little sister is from?"
Manbao looked him up and down, but couldn't see any resemblance between him and Master Guan, so he was a little skeptical. "Are you really Master Guan's son?"
Guan Erlang: "...Yes, young lady?"
Manbao said, "Doctor Ji and I went to see Master Guan, but we only met the eldest son of the Guan family."
Guan Erlang couldn't help but turn his head to look at his friends. Qi Dalang smiled and said, "Is this Miss Zhou who studied medicine with Doctor Ji?"
Seeing Manbao nod, he turned around and introduced Guan Erlang: "Ms. Zhou's medical skills are very good. She once worked with Doctor Fan to treat the young master of the Ji family."
Guan Erlang looked at the young Manbao with suspicion and could only smile politely.
Qi Dalang understood what he saw. When he came back and heard his brother talk about this, he was also full of doubts. But even his father said that Ji Hao was in danger at that time. Thanks to a young female doctor beside Doctor Ji who stopped the bleeding and seemed to have given him a prescription later, the man came back to life.
Manbao didn't pay attention to Qi Dalang, but stared at Guan Erlang. She felt it would be bad to ask about the other courtyard without warning, so she used Master Guan as a starting point and said, "I've been sorting through Master Guan's medical records recently and found that his headache problem has not only lasted for ten years, but since eleven years ago..."
Manbao paused here, subconsciously turned his head to look at Bai Shan, and inexplicably felt that the timing was a bit coincidental.
Bai Shan also glanced at her and nodded slightly.
Manbao then said to Guan Erlang, "There are many reasons for headaches, but in fact, no matter what kind of disease you have, it is related to your daily life and diet..."
Manbao chattered a lot to explain the cause of Guan Erlang's illness, emphasizing what she believed to be the main reason why Master Guan was ill.
Not only Guan Erlang, but everyone else was stunned as well, mainly because they had never understood the cause of the illness in such detail.
If you are sick and go to see a doctor, the doctor will at most say something like "wind evil has entered the body" or "liver qi is not flowing smoothly". However, the doctor will not tell you that the illness is caused by the imbalance of yin and yang due to different reasons such as daily life, season, and diet.
Several people were stunned by what they heard. Guan Erlang didn't understand very well, but he felt that the other party seemed very powerful, so he pretended to listen and occasionally asked a few questions. Manbao explained everything in detail.
Qi Dalang and the others became interested and simply stood up to make room for two seats for them to sit down. One of them even rolled up his sleeves and held out his hand, "Young lady, since you are so capable, why don't you help me see if my daily life and diet have been appropriate these days?"
Manbao didn't want to pay much attention to him. He just wanted to talk to Guan Erlang so that he could find out more about the villa and Master Guan.
But she vaguely knew that it would be bad for her to refuse, and everyone was still curiously watching, so she folded her sleeves, looked him up and down, put her hand on his pulse, looked at his tongue and said, "It's not appropriate. You eat too much meat, which can't be digested, and your stomach qi is damaged and out of balance. You drink too much in winter, which damages your liver qi and liver and kidney function, so you've had trouble sleeping recently..."
Manbao glanced at the pimples on his face and said tactfully, "Your complexion is not good because your inner and outer appearance are not in harmony."
The young master was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but look up at his friends, "You're right, I love eating meat. Since the twelfth lunar month last year, I've been having endless social events and drinking non-stop. These past few days, I've been unable to fall asleep late at night. I wake up before the roosters even wake up."
He became excited and asked Manbao, "Is there a prescription for treatment?"
"Yes," Manbao thought for a moment and said, "I'll prescribe a conditioning prescription. You'll need to drink it for three days. In spring, you should eat less meat and more grains and vegetables. You can have some sweets."
He asked curiously, "Why do you want to eat sweets?"
Man Bao glanced at him and said, "In spring, the liver qi is strong, and strong liver qi affects the spleen. Sweetness strengthens the spleen, and sourness enters the liver, so in spring, you should eat less sourness and more sweetness. You eat too much meat. Spring is the beginning of the four seasons, when all things grow, so you should eat more grains."
Manbao looked at them curiously, a little puzzled, "Haven't you read the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine?"
Qi Dalang and others: ...Why should they read the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine? They are not doctors.
Manbao pointed to Bai Shan who was standing beside him and said, "He has read it, and my husband has also read the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine."
Qi Dalang and the others laughed stiffly and said, "Your teacher is truly knowledgeable and erudite."
Manbao and Baishan nodded together.
Then Manbao let go of the young man and looked at Guan Erlang. "Second Young Master Guan, I've given Mr. Guan acupuncture several times, but every time it was Doctor Ji who did the consultation. Mr. Guan didn't seem to want to be treated anymore, so he didn't like to answer questions from either Doctor Ji or me. Actually, I think if Mr. Guan's headache is treated properly, there's still some hope."
Manbao didn't say anything definitive, but simply said, "It's not an acute illness after all. He's been ill for eleven or twelve years, right? Do you remember when he first complained of a headache?"
Guan Erlang had no doubts, and neither did the young masters around him. After all, Manbao was young, and it was normal for a doctor to want to take the opportunity to learn more about the patient's condition when meeting the patient's family.
Guan Erlang thought carefully and said, "It seems like it was about ten years ago when my father suddenly fell ill. We invited many doctors to see him, but it was of no use. Even the prince sent the imperial physician to see him. He took a lot of medicine and had a lot of acupuncture, but his condition was intermittent and has been getting worse over the years."
Bai Shan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he smiled softly as he stood beside Man Bao, "I didn't expect that Master Guan and the prince were friends."
Qi Dalang laughed and said, "That's why you came so late. Master Guan originally came from the prince's mansion, and the prince has always treated Master Guan well."
Manbao couldn't help swallowing, and his body turned slightly, his sleeve brushing against Bai Shan's sleeve. Her fingers lightly touched his, making him swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Manbao asked with sparkling eyes, "Is it because Master Guan suddenly changed his residence, or because he has irregular diet, that caused the headache?"
She swallowed and asked, "I just heard you say there is a separate courtyard. Could it be that Master Guan used to live in the separate courtyard?"
The next update will be around 6:00 PM
