Chapter 171 People with heart disease should avoid taking ephedra
"Wait a minute, girl. I'll get it right away!"
After Wang Hongxuan finished speaking, he turned around and ran out.
After his mother died, he was worried that there was something fishy about her death. In his grief, he secretly kept some of the food and things that Madam Wang usually ate and used. However, the coroner had done a hasty autopsy and left without asking to check those things, so he did not take them out.
Seeing this, Liu Jiaojiao couldn't help but tighten her grip on the handkerchief.
But he still felt that it was impossible for a little girl like Song Yuntang to detect anything, so he pretended to be calm and supported Mr. Wang while standing aside to watch the fun.
After a while, the medicine residue, the incense burner in Wang's room, the leftover cakes and plates from the day were brought over.
After checking one by one, Song Yuntang took out a few small, thin and seemingly ordinary medicinal herbs from the residue and put them under his nose to smell them.
"I may know the cause of Mrs. Wang's death."
After hearing this, Master Qin quickly took out a pen and paper to take notes.
"What was the cause of death?" Zhu Deming asked.
The boys and girls on the side also looked at Song Yuntang with burning eyes.
"Mrs. Wang's body had no external injuries, but her heart was swollen and full, which is a common phenomenon in people who died of heart disease. It can be seen that her heart disease symptoms must have been quite serious, but it cannot be ruled out that it was caused by the addition of ephedra to her recent medication."
As she spoke, she held up the thin strips she had just picked out from the medicinal residue.
After hearing this, Master Qin quickly picked up his pen and wrote it down.
Zhu Deming frowned.
"Ephedra? Miss Song, please tell us in detail."
Song Yuntang nodded, "We usually treat patients and prescribe medicine. If the patient suffers from a serious heart disease, we usually avoid using ephedra."
"The most obvious side effect of ephedra is that it increases the risk of hyperactivity of liver yang. After taking it, patients with heart disease may experience rapid heart rate, panic, and myocardial contraction, which aggravates the heart disease. In severe cases, there is even the possibility of stroke and sudden death."
"Combined with what Young Master Wang just said, Madam Wang has been suffering from palpitations and chest pains recently. It can be judged that ephedra has been added to the medicine Madam Wang has been taking for some time."
After hearing what Song Yuntang said, Miss Wang fell to the ground and burst into tears.
"Mom, you died so unjustly!"
Wang Hongxuan's eyes also turned red, and he knelt down in front of Zhu Deming.
"Please find out the truth and give my mother justice!"
As he spoke, he bowed deeply.
Seeing this, Zhu Deming quickly reached out and helped him up.
"Hurry up, now that I have accepted your complaint and have found out the cause of death, I will naturally find out who is behind this."
As he spoke, he waved his hand.
"Come in, everyone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of yamen runners rushed in from outside the door.
"First, control the Wang family. Except for Mr. Wang and Miss Wang, no one is allowed to leave the house without my permission until this case is solved!"
Liu Jiaojiao was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
How is that possible?
She did it so secretly, how could she still be discovered?
If this were to be discovered, wouldn't she have to spend the rest of her life in jail?
Zhu Deming looked at Liu Yiyi, who had the biggest reaction. "I heard that Aunt Liu is deeply favored by Master Wang. There are many rumors in Anyang County that Master Wang favors his concubine over his wife. Let's start investigating the people around Aunt Liu."
After saying this, he left Master Qin to take charge of the situation and took Song Yuntang away, heading straight to the Li family.
…
Song Yuntang looked up at the sky. After such a delay, it was already the end of the afternoon. It seemed that he would not be able to return to Cile Town tonight.
The young master of the Li family is eleven years old. Although he is lying on the bed with his eyes closed, one can still see his handsome features.
When Mrs. Li and the old lady learned that Zhu Deming had brought a very capable doctor, they all rushed in.
Although he had some doubts about the medical skills of the little girl in front of him, he also felt that Lord Zhu was not someone who liked to play jokes on others.
It's great that we can bring this girl here. Maybe she is really capable. After all, we have no other options now, so we might as well let this girl give it a try.
"Young lady, if you can really wake my grandson up, the Li family will definitely reward you handsomely." Old Madam Li said solemnly.
The Li family has few direct descendants. Young Master Li is the only child in the family. Madam Li has not been pregnant since she gave birth to him. If anything happens to the child, she will either divorce him and remarry, or adopt a child from the side branch and place him under the name of the direct line.
Just by doing this, the direct bloodline will be cut off.
In addition, Young Master Li has been smart and sensible since he was young. Old Madam Li likes him very much, and the Li family also values him very much. Of course, they still hope that he can wake up.
Song Yuntang stepped forward, first took the pulse of the child on the bed, and then opened his eyelids to take a look.
After a careful examination, he said, "The young master's coma is not due to poisoning."
"If he wasn't poisoned, then why did he suddenly fall into a coma? The doctor examined him carefully before, and didn't see any external injuries." Mrs. Li asked hurriedly.
"It's not an external injury." Song Yuntang said, "The young master has signs of bleeding in his brain stem, which is why he is unconscious. As for the cause of the bleeding, I just felt a soft little bump in his brain stem, which is most likely caused by the small lump in his brain. I wonder if the young master has headaches on weekdays?"
Mrs. Li thought about it carefully. Her son was sensible and filial in front of her. He always reported good news but not bad news. She really didn't know about such a thing.
So he looked at the boy about fourteen or fifteen years old standing next to him.
"You usually take care of Qi'er's daily life. Has he ever had a headache?"
"I have a headache occasionally, but the young master said he didn't want the lady to worry, so he never let me tell the lady. I saw that the young master's headache was not common, and it was not severe, so I didn't take it seriously." The young man knelt down and said, "It is my fault, I hope the lady will punish me."
Old Madam Li sighed. Qi'er was such a sensible child that it made people feel sorry for him.
"Although you have made a mistake, it was Qi'er who instructed you to do this. Get up first. I'm sure your wife won't punish you." She looked at Song Yuntang, "Miss, I wonder if my grandson's condition can be cured?"
It is not scary if the disease is somewhere else, but it is extremely risky if the disease is in the brain.
Even if it is cured, there is a high possibility that there will be sequelae.
Song Yuntang nodded.
"able."
Zhu Deming saw that the young master of the Li family was not unconscious due to human error, so he looked at the people present and said, "Since the reason for the young master's coma is clear, I will not stay here any longer."
He looked at Song Yuntang.
"Miss Song has helped me a lot today, so I deserve to treat her well. I will ask my wife to prepare a guest room and a light banquet. After Miss Song finishes her work here, she can stay overnight before leaving."
Song Yuntang hurriedly shook his head.
"No need to bother. I'll find an inn later. I won't bother Mr. Zhu and Mrs. Zhu."
Although she helped Lord Zhu, Lord Zhu also helped her.
Compared to staying at Zhu's house, she felt it would be more comfortable to stay in an inn.
