Chapter 414 Genius Doctor, Fake Daughter, and Deposed Prince 23
When Cha Jiu saw Yun Zhiruo's expression of surprise and regret, he knew that she should have realized where she was wrong.
So she turned to Pei Yu, the emperor and the others, and explained to them clearly: "Eating a small amount of Guanyin soil can make you feel full and avoid hunger. So when people in famine-stricken areas are desperate, they will eat Guanyin soil to fill their stomachs."
"But you can't eat too much of this kind of soil, otherwise it will damage your spleen and stomach; you can't drink a lot of water after eating it, otherwise the soil will stick to your intestines and harden, causing obstruction."
The patient who had taken the Guanyin soil had already had his intestines and stomach severely eroded and blocked, and Yun Zhiruo's strong soup made it even worse.
It would be strange if he didn't vomit blood.
Saving a life is already a miracle.
Yun Zhiruo actually understood this principle.
It's just that she has been in the circle of nobles in Beijing for too long, and now it is difficult for her to change her mindset when treating such poor people and poor diseases. For a while, she can't react to such small details.
Yun Zhichu...only won because of this small information gap.
It's just luck.
The doctors suddenly realized: "So internal medicine doesn't work, so you use the external method of stimulating the acupuncture points with gold needles to open the intestinal obstruction."
Cha Jiu nodded: "That's right, I used acupuncture on the Tianshu, Guanyuan, and Qihai points..."
"Wait." Doctor Chen, who had secretly joined Pei Yu's party, deliberately stopped the treatment and looked at Yun Zhiruo and asked, "I wonder if Miss Yun Zhiruo has the ability to use acupuncture to open the intestinal knot?"
Yun Zhiruo's body stiffened slightly.
Doctor Yun’s face also turned dark.
This Doctor Chen! Why is he always against him?
Seeing the two people's ugly expressions, Doctor Chen was secretly pleased. He stroked his beard and sighed, "Since it can't be done, it seems that Miss Yun Zhichu's victory was not due to luck, but strength."
The others nodded in agreement.
This acupuncture method is also mysterious. The acupuncture points are actually just a few, but the strength, depth, and duration of the needles are different for each person, so the effects also vary greatly.
This forms the personal skill of the acupuncturist.
Obviously, Yun Zhiruo lost this game completely.
Pei Yu could no longer hide the smile on his lips, his eyes were full of admiration and pride for his own child.
The fourth prince was almost biting his teeth to pieces.
Fortunately, there is still one last round, they must...
"There has been no famine or natural disaster near the capital, so how come there are hungry people who have to eat Guanyin soil?" the emperor suddenly asked with a frown.
Finally you hit the point.
Cha Jiu's eyes flashed with brilliance, but on the surface he pretended to be ignorant of the inside story and said frankly: "I don't know much either, but I once passed by this deserted village full of hungry people when I went up the mountain to collect herbs. They said something... their fields and houses were seized by the Lin family, and they were not allowed to go into the city to beg or go up the mountain to hunt..."
Lin Family
The fourth prince's wife's family, the Lin family
The emperor had a subtle expression.
The fourth prince's heart skipped a beat.
Oh no, Yun Zhichu and Pei Yu are coming for him!
“Father…”
The fourth prince wanted to explain, but was ruthlessly interrupted by the emperor: "Zong Heng!"
"I'm here." The leader of the Yulin Army, Zong Heng, stepped out to receive orders.
The emperor had a blank expression on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking: "Go and investigate this matter thoroughly."
Zong Heng accepted the order.
An hour later, Zong Heng returned to the hall and brought the truth.
It turned out that after the Fourth Prince came to power, his cronies, concubines' families, and others in the capital became more and more overbearing and erratic, especially the Fourth Prince's concubine's family, the Lin family. The children of the main family occupied various lucrative positions in the court, while the children of the side branches monopolized the imperial merchants, occupied the land and houses of the common people in the suburbs, and even forcibly took women from the people.
In order to prevent them from complaining, the Lin family even colluded with the officials guarding the city to prevent those who had lost their land and had no means of making a living from entering the city to beg.
Even if someone was lucky enough to sneak into the city and report to the authorities, the government offices in the capital had already been bribed by the Lin family. Without saying a word, they would beat the person with a stick 100 times and throw him out of the city to die.
As a result, people who had land became landless, their homes could not be returned to, good people became refugees, and the prey in the mountains and forests was seized by the nobles in the capital as their private property. They could not hunt to fill their stomachs, and could only survive by eating tree roots and Guanyin soil.
Nowadays, there are at least ninety people who die from intestinal obstruction caused by eating Guanyin soil.
After Zong Heng finished speaking, the emperor's face was already filled with gloom and anger.
He threw the teacup in his hand hard, hitting the Fourth Prince's head and causing him to bleed. He sneered, "Pei Yan, you are really very good! Even the city guards and the government offices are under your control. Otherwise, I would just let you sit on my throne!"
The Fourth Prince's face turned pale, his body went limp, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, repeatedly asking his father to calm down.
Cha Jiu quietly retreated to Pei Yu's side and watched the show coldly.
Pei Yu thought she was frightened, so he pulled her closer to him, patted her back gently, and comforted her like a child.
Cha Jiu noticed this, curled his lips in dissatisfaction, and whispered: "Your Highness, I am no longer a child. Look, I can still make our enemies suffer a lot today."
we.
This word inexplicably made Pei Yu's brows relax.
However, he soon grasped more important information: "You deliberately used this patient as a test subject to deal with Pei Yan."
Cha Jiu nodded.
In fact, she treated many patients with intestinal colon disease in the deserted village, but her treatment was only temporary and not the root cause.
These people have no land and no way to make a living, so they will continue to eat dirt and get sick, over and over again until they die.
Only by resolving the root cause of the Lin family's enclosure and returning the land can they have hope of survival.
Coincidentally, Yun Zhiruo's competition today was like a pillow provided for her when she felt sleepy, which was just the right thing to do.
Pei Yu didn't expect that she could react so quickly and come up with such a meticulous plan in such a short time. He couldn't help but be surprised: "It seems that you have really grown up. Even I can't understand your thoughts right away."
Cha Jiu licked his lips and said, "So Your Highness, please stop treating me like a child."
I no longer treat you as a child.
Pei Yu really wanted to say this.
His eyes wandered and inadvertently fell on her plump and shiny lips, and he couldn't help but imagine what it would feel like to bite them.
It must be more delicious than dragon liver and pheasant gall.
No, I can't think about it anymore.
Pei Yu felt that he had a dirty mind and had developed desires for the child he had raised.
The other party is completely unaware of this and may even just regard him as a brother, trusting and relying on him wholeheartedly.
How abominable he is
Cha Jiu next to him looked at him strangely, not understanding why his favorability suddenly went up and down like a roller coaster.
On the other hand, the Fourth Prince, after much persuasion, finally managed to get the Lin family's land enclosure resolved.
But the seeds of doubt in the emperor's heart took root and grew rapidly.
He temporarily dismissed the Fourth Prince from his position and duties in the court, and had the idea of letting Pei Yu return to the palace to check and balance power.
At the same time, a eunuch came into the palace to report that the ghost doctor Du Zhong was seeking an audience outside the palace.
…
There is still one chapter to be written, and I hope to finish it before midnight.
