The black pill was squeezed open, and the brown liquid inside looked a bit like iodine. It didn't look magical when poured into a spoon.
Qi Rongrong drank it obediently, and Fu Chenan and Wei Xu looked at her reaction nervously.
Fortunately, there was no reaction.
No reaction means it is not a strong poison.
Fu Qingnian was also taking the pulse carefully.
The pulse is normal, so this medicine is OK.
Seeing him nod affirmatively, Fu Chenan and Wei Xu both breathed a sigh of relief.
Fu Chenan explained to Qi Rongrong, "The doctor said that it will take a day for the medicine to take effect."
"Just take a good rest these two days. We are all next door."
In order to make the medicine take effect faster, Qi Rongrong ate something, was given an acupuncture treatment, and then fell asleep.
Fu Chenan and Wei Xu went to the next room and then talked about the situation of Princess Wuyang.
People from Princess Wuyang's mother's family and her husband's family were brought to Tianwu for trial, but Tianlang was in a state of disarray.
Before Wei Xu left, he instructed the six ministries to perform their respective duties, and also reminded the princes of the royal family and the military generals to take good care of their own jobs and subordinates.
He was frank: "Those people dare not make any big moves in the short term. After all, they are under the control of His Highness and the Emperor."
Tianwu's military strength has left the surrounding countries far behind. No matter who wants to take power at this time, they will not be able to sit still.
No one wants to be a short-lived emperor, with his entire family dying within three months of taking the throne.
Fu Chenan nodded and asked about Wei Xu's marriage.
Fu Chenan is about to have her second child, and at Wei Xu's age, it's time for him to arrange a marriage.
But Wei Xu was not in a hurry.
He smiled bitterly and said, "I only realized after becoming an emperor that this job is too exhausting. I am not good enough and it is very strenuous for me to do it."
"At this moment, I just want to do my job well and finish Tianlang's work first before getting engaged, otherwise it will distract my attention."
It would be fine if the person next to you can be a support, but what if you marry someone who is thoughtful?
He really felt it was difficult.
Fu Chenan didn't force it: "The burden is a bit heavy, you are still too thin, eat more."
Wei Xu nodded and said "yes", but also explained: "I can eat two bowls of rice in one meal. Because I am afraid that my physical strength can't keep up, I also learn from His Highness and let Master Wu take me to practice boxing every day..."
Plus, he was still growing taller and was consuming a lot of energy, so he was indeed very thin.
The two brothers were talking about family matters in a calm manner, and the atmosphere was unexpectedly more harmonious than ever before.
Wei Xu was secretly excited but puzzled at the same time.
Fu Chenan was fairly friendly to him except for the time when he first became his master. Later on, because of his mother, he became very distant from him. What happened this time?
Fu Chenan looked at Wei Xu sitting upright with a questioning look in his eyes. He suddenly sighed and explained, "I don't know if this medicine is effective or not. My mother told me before that she hopes that we brothers can live in harmony..."
At that time, Qi Rongrong felt that she was about to die and wanted to leave some last words.
Fu Chenan took it to heart.
It was then that he suddenly felt that Wei Xu was as pitiful as himself, having never been loved by his mother since childhood.
All in all, I'm even better than Wei Xu.
After all, my own father really loves me.
Wei Xu, on the other hand, is not loved by his father and mother, and the little guy has to survive in the cracks...
The irritation he once had miraculously disappeared, and he was finally able to talk to Wei Xu calmly.
The two talked for a while, and Fu Chenan left Wei Xu here to accompany Qi Rongrong, and turned to go to the East Palace to find Xiao Yingchun.
Xiao Yingchun had just returned from Zhan Yunfu's place.
Zhan Yunfu didn't want to get close to Qi Rongrong, but she was always paying attention to the situation here.
Xiao Yingchun was just telling Zhan Yunfu about the situation here.
When Zhan Yunfu heard about this kind of medicine, she was also excited.
If such a medicine really exists, can I just take one pill when I get older and prolong my life?
Xiao Yingchun ruthlessly shattered her fantasy: there is only one pill in total, and it will be gone once it is used up.
Now I have to think about: if the pills are effective, how to settle Qi Rongrong in the future.
When it came to this, both of them stopped laughing.
Qi Rongrong's identity is sensitive. It is inconvenient for her to stay in the palace, and it is unsafe to leave her outside.
Neither of them could think of a good solution for a while, so Xiao Yingchun came back and discussed it with Fu Chenan.
Fu Chenan was unwilling to think further: the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Let’s wait until there are results.
When he talked about his relationship with Wei Xu, there was a hint of relief in his words: "It hasn't been easy for him these past few years..."
Xiao Yingchun only knew how difficult it was for Fu Chenan, so she agreed while pinching Fu Chenan's fingers for fun.
Fu Chenan has long and beautiful fingers, but one can still see the scars on his hands that have long since healed.
Those were traces left over from cutting vegetables, slaughtering pigs and hunting.
"As long as you like."
At this moment, the palace maid beside Fu Siyan came to ask: Can you get some videos and information about caesarean section?
It was Fu Siyan who asked someone to ask.
Fu Chenan was surprised: "How could she think of this?"
Fu Siyan could understand the English instructions on the instrument and was the first to master the operation of the plasma exchange instrument. Recently, she has been helping to take care of Qi Rongrong, and she looks visibly haggard.
When she saw Fu Chenan and Xiao Yingchun, her eyes immediately lit up: "Yingchun is here too! How are you doing recently?"
Fu Siyan talked about her original intention: this plasma exchange instrument gave her an additional idea.
Compared with this era, people in the 21st century are so happy.
There is not only traditional Chinese medicine, but also Western medicine, as well as various instruments and surgeries.
It is difficult for women here to get medical treatment, and giving birth is notoriously difficult.
Many women have lost two lives due to trouble giving birth.
She heard about one a few days ago.
When she saw the instrument again, she wanted to learn more about modern medicine and try to perform caesarean sections on pregnant women with malpositioned fetuses and difficult labor.
Xiao Yingchun and Fu Chenan both felt that it was not easy: "Will this work?"
First of all, preparing the operating room is not easy.
Disinfection is the first step, how to maintain a sterile environment?
How can we make people of this era know what "bacteria" are?
How to avoid infection after surgery?
If the mother dies due to infection, how will people view it? Will they cause trouble?
Then there’s the level of acceptance of this sort of thing in this era.
Cut open a person's stomach, take the baby out, and then sew it up...it's bloody just thinking about it.
Another issue is the difficulty in promoting caesarean section surgery.
Even if Fu Siyan could perform caesarean sections after learning, she could only save a very small number of pregnant women.
Most people in this world would not be willing to make such an attempt...
In front of Fu Chenan, Xiao Yingchun told Fu Siyan about all these difficulties one by one and asked her: "How do you plan to overcome these difficulties?"
Fu Siyan looked at Xiao Yingchun with a serious and bright gaze: "Just because it's difficult, should we not try?"
"We started doing it in Beijing, for women who had difficulty giving birth. Even if it failed, there would be no worse consequences..."
"As time goes by, everyone will know that there is such a way to save lives."
"Will there be more women willing to try it in the future?"
"Besides, everyone has learned how to disinfect and avoid infection through popular science. Can this surgical method be used to treat other diseases in the future?"
Xiao Yingchun was moved by the light in Fu Siyan's eyes: "Have you really thought it through?"
Fu Siyan nodded heavily.
Xiao Yingchun gritted her teeth and said decisively: "As long as you are determined, I support you!"
Fu Siyan smiled: "Yingchun, I knew you could support me."
After all, you are also a pregnant woman now, so you will be more sympathetic to pregnant women who have difficulty giving birth in Tianwu Time and Space. (End of this chapter)
