Chapter 352 Xiang Mingzhu, You Lose
Just see.
A young and thin figure covered his mouth and coughed while pushing Li Songwen away.
Li Songwen's head hit the cabinet and he was a little confused for a moment.
When he saw the man in front of him clearly, he became angry and said, "Shen Xuanzhi, what are you doing?"
Shen Xuanzhi ignored his anger, put a portion of Gentian and a portion of Poria in Qiao Xi's hands and said, "I saw the herbs you tried to take just now, and I guessed that you drew the Gentian Decoction, which contains Gentian and Poria."
Qiao Xi looked at him in surprise.
Li Songwen's face turned pale: "Shen Xuanzhi, this is a competition! You are cheating for her!"
Shen Xuanzhi's cold, world-weary face remained calm as he said, "If you're causing trouble for her, aren't you cheating for Xiang Mingzhu? You can exploit loopholes in the rules, but we can't? Is this the Chinese Medicine Association owned by your family?"
"you……"
Li Songwen was speechless and immediately wanted to report this behavior to the examiner.
But the examiner squinted his eyes and leaned back in his rocking chair, remaining calm. "Anything not prohibited by the rules is permitted. As colleagues, we should help each other. This was Mr. Zhong's intention when he oversaw the needle testing conference in his early years. It's a shame it took so many years for someone to understand this."
Li Songwen's expression became even uglier: "Then why don't you just say it?"
The examiner said coldly, "We didn't expect anyone to make things so difficult for our colleagues. The rules are designed to have loopholes, but there are ways to break them. Do you really think we old guys are vegetarians?"
Li Songwen's face turned pale from the ridicule, and he could only grit his teeth and look at Qiao Xi with hatred.
Qiao Xi didn't hesitate to take the herbs from Shen Xuanzhi and said, "Thank you."
Shen Xuan had heard that there were conflicts between the Shen family and the Lu family in the imperial capital, and he knew that this move was probably aimed at Xiang Mingzhu.
"It's just a piece of cake."
Shen Xuanzhi carried a few medicine bags and slowly walked out of the Chinese medicine cabinet.
He had already prepared the medicine.
Qiao Xi quickly withdrew her gaze from him and took another dose of licorice according to the prescription. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she thought for a moment and took another dose of angelica.
When she finished everything, she handed the brown paper seal and medicinal materials to the examiner.
The timer is reset to zero.
The game is over.
The big screen shows that the points are being settled.
Many people held their breath.
"Did this Chinese medicine apprentice complete the competition?"
"Is her prescription correct? Why is it just settling the bill and not updating it?"
"I think it's a bit risky. Who knows if someone will figure it out at the right time? Maybe they just took some without gathering all the herbs. Speaking of which, Xiang Mingzhu is more reliable."
Most of them came for the bet and wanted to see the excitement of the Chinese Medicine Festival. Therefore, they were very concerned about Qiao Xi's points.
When Qiao Xi sat down in the rest area, Xiang Mingzhu was staring at her eagerly.
"Qiao Xi, there's an extra herb in the herbs you brought. There are 10 herbs in the Gentian Decoction, but I see you brought 11. Did you remember the recipe wrong?"
Xiang Mingzhu smiled widely. "How could you have made a mistake with such a simple medicinal recipe?"
She was originally angry that Shen Xuanzhi, that ignorant guy, helped Qiao Xi, but now it seems that some people are hopeless.
"Miss Xiang, this must be her first time witnessing such a grand occasion. She's probably too nervous."
"Haha, how come there are 11 herbs in Longdan Decoction?"
Xiang Mingzhu motioned for them to be quiet and said to Qiao Xi, "Miss Qiao, don't forget our bet. We originally agreed to admit it in public, and I think today is a good opportunity."
She didn't want Qiao Xi to default on her debt.
Qiao Xi looked at Xiang Mingzhu and the others and said in a cold voice, "The second round of competition is about treating the symptoms, not just memorizing the prescription. I'm willing to accept the loss. If I lose..."
She extended a slender white finger, pointed at the platform in the middle of the Chinese medicine clinic, and said, "If I lose, I will stand there and fulfill the bet in public."
Xiang Mingzhu curled the corners of her mouth: "Okay, me too."
Han Jia, who was sitting next to him, seemed to have thought of something.
Under what circumstances is Angelica sinensis added to Longdan Decoction? It is also used to treat children's symptoms. I have read this prescription.
The answer is obvious!
Xiang Mingzhu claims to be familiar with various prescriptions. Hasn't she learned to integrate them?
He stared blankly at Qiao Xi's delicate and cold face.
at this time.
The standings are updated on the big screen!
Everyone looked at the name at the top, and many of them opened their mouths wide and were speechless for a long time.
"this……"
Qiao Xi slowly raised her eyes, and the familiar name was reflected in her eyes.
She stood up, looked at Xiang Mingzhu, and said, "You lose."
Xiang Mingzhu was stunned.
Her mind went blank, and she was almost overwhelmed by the blow. Then she said sternly, "This is impossible! How could she win with her Gentiana sac soup that uses 11 herbs? I strongly demand that Qiao Xi's competition questions be made public!"
Tang Chengde, the honorary president of the Haicheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Association, has a close relationship with Qiao Xi. He might be helping her on purpose!
Xiang Mingzhu was furious. She had clearly instructed Ma Hongwen to trick Qiao Xi into getting the most difficult test possible, yet why was it just a Gentian Decoction? She should have been given a decoction with at least twenty herbs!
Could it be that Ma Hongwen also helped Qiao Xi?
Xiang Mingzhu's mind was in a mess. She felt that many people had betrayed her!
It was clearly a foolproof situation, so how come she ended up losing?
How could she lose!
The matter has become a big deal!
"Miss Xiang is right!"
“We want to see it too!”
"Reveal Qiao Xi's test questions!"
The forum bet had sparked widespread discontent, and Xiang Mingzhu's fans weren't expecting such an outcome. They felt there was something fishy going on, perhaps the Huo family had used some powerful connections.
But insiders know that no matter what kind of connections they have, they can’t deal with those old antiques in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association.
But it can't resist the speculation of outsiders.
Sun Shao complained: "So Qiao Xi's victory is a problem, but that pig's victory is natural? These people are unreasonable."
Shu Xue said coldly, "It's because they are related to the Lu family. I believe Qiao Xi must have her own considerations. Don't tell me, I love watching this kind of face-slapping drama, it makes their faces swollen!"
Doesn’t Qiao Xi know that Longdan Decoction contains 10 main medicinal ingredients?
When she was helping Qiao Xi at Haicheng City Hospital, she saw her seeing many pediatric patients and had prescribed Longdan Decoction.
The Liu family was worried.
Old Lady Liu said softly, "I asked a few old friends to act as intermediaries. I just hope these old gentlemen can make a fair and objective judgment. But I didn't bribe them to help Qiao Xi cheat. I don't understand this Chinese medicine decoction either. What's going on?"
Xu Yunye's expression was indifferent: "Just watching, she can't possibly be cheating."
…
The crowds are noisy and the people are eager to learn.
Several older examiners decided to teach them a lesson and agreed to make Qiao Xi's test paper public. Then Tang Chengde walked up to them with Qiao Xi's prescription.
He passed the test paper that Qiao Xi had picked out to them, and the camera recorded it in high definition.
"That's right. Longdan decoction should be used for epilepsy in children. For children aged three or four, the dosage should be increased. But why add angelica sinensis?"
"Fever, vomiting, wheezing, and abdominal pain. Wheezing and abdominal pain... I remember it was recorded in Qianjin Fang! This seems to be... I understand!"
"I think I understand too!"
