Chapter 20 020 Dying



Half an hour later, the maid came with a bowl of hot medicine, and General Ming could hardly wait to drink it.

Madam Ming looked at General Ming nervously from the side, and personally wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

After a moment, General Ming's expression became delicate, and he asked the servant to help him go to the bathroom. After a cup of tea, he came out of the bathroom with a relaxed look and refreshed body, and he didn't need anyone's help anymore.

"Madam, please have someone serve me a bowl of noodles quickly!" General Ming said hurriedly.

Mrs. Ming was relieved to see that he looked happy and cheerful: If he wanted to eat, that was good!

Madam Ming quickly ordered the maid to cook noodles and said with a smile, "Master, Doctor Wang from the Imperial Hospital is truly an extraordinary doctor. When you are fully recovered, I will come to treat you personally..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw General Ming's face change again, and suddenly turned as pale as paper.

"vomit……"

General Ming bowed his head and spat out a large mouthful of blood, leaving a pool of glaring red blood on the ground.

Mrs. Ming was terrified and screamed, "Master!"

General Ming's face became even uglier, and he opened his mouth and vomited another mouthful of blood. The blood splattered on his white undershirt and Madam Ming's dress, which was shocking.

"My stomach hurts... so badly." General Ming didn't bother to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. He covered his stomach with one hand and felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, as if his intestines were being repeatedly pulled and twisted.

He endured the severe pain and cold sweat dripped down his face.

Mrs. Ming was shocked, scared, and distressed when she saw her husband like this. She felt the same way and her eyes were filled with tears.

The maidservant beside her was also at a loss, and said in panic: "Didn't Doctor Wang say that the medicine would cure the disease?"

"Quick...quickly go and invite Doctor Wang again..."

Madam Ming hurriedly ordered her servants, but saw General Ming spit out another large mouthful of blood. She was so scared that she forgot what to say next.

"Husband, Madam..." The maid thought of something and said with a pale face, "The doctor from Jishitang told us not to use Panax notoginseng, saying that the master had vomited a large amount of blood and was in danger. If Panax notoginseng is used to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis and stop bleeding, it will make the hematemesis worse and his life will be in danger!"

Madam Ming was stunned, thinking back to what Doctor Wang had said just now. Doctor Wang said that Panax notoginseng must be used to treat hematemesis, but what was the result? Her master was now vomiting blood even more severely!

The doctor at Jishidiang was actually right!

"Where is the prescription from Jishidiang?" Mrs. Ming asked hurriedly.

The maids around subconsciously looked towards the large desk that Imperial Doctor Wang had used when he wrote the prescription, but the desk was empty now.

There was chaos inside and outside the house.

Soon, the little maid who had just been cleaning was called to Madam Ming. She timidly took out the silk paper with the prescription from her sleeve and presented it to her.

Mrs. Ming took a closer look and saw that the prescription on the silk paper was written in regular script, which was crisp, elegant, vigorous and rich.

Different from Doctor Wang's prescription which used at least a dozen medicinal ingredients, this prescription was extremely concise, using only five simple medicinal ingredients: raw yam, raw rehmannia root, cooked rehmannia root, purified cornus fruit and raw ochre.

These five herbs are very common and are not rare or precious medicinal materials.

She read on patiently and saw seven more words below the prescription: Second dose will be prescribed tomorrow.

Mrs. Ming's eyes flickered brightly and dimly. Regardless of whether the doctor who wrote this prescription could cure the general's illness, one thing the other party said was right. Doctor Wang used Panax notoginseng as the medicine, but it made the general's hematemesis worse.

She gritted her teeth and said quickly, "Quick, go get the doctor from Jishidiang..."

He was interrupted by General Ming when he said, "...Send me to Jishidiang!"

As a result, the entire general's mansion was shaken. Two servants helped General Ming onto the sedan chair, and then lifted him onto the carriage, and took him all the way to Jishidiang on Huahong Street.

The huge noise alarmed many people on Huahong Street, and people in other nearby shops thought that someone had come to Jishiditang to cause trouble again.

But I don’t want to——

"Hey, buddy, which doctor wrote the prescription that was just delivered to General Ming's mansion?"

The head maid took the prescription that she had read over and over again and asked the waiter at Jishidiang.

Of course the waiter knew who had written the prescription. He shook his head and answered honestly, "It wasn't the doctor..."

What?! Mrs. Ming, who was standing behind him, also heard it and frowned slightly.

At this time, Doctor Liu came out from the back hall and said, "Madam Ming, this prescription was not written by the doctor in our clinic, but by a young lady. That young lady is an extraordinary doctor. Because the general's hematemesis is serious, I asked that young lady for this prescription."

Hematemesis is not uncommon, and Doctor Liu has treated hematemesis before. However, General Ming has suffered from hemoptysis since last winter. He has seen countless famous doctors in Beijing, but his condition has not improved. In the spring, the hemoptysis has become more serious and turned into hematemesis. His condition is critical!

At this point, neither he nor the doctors in other clinics were able to do anything.

If Chu Qianchen had not been so skilled in medicine, Doctor Liu would not have dared to offer the prescription so easily today.

"Where is that girl?" Mrs. Ming walked a few steps closer to Doctor Liu and asked.

"The girl usually comes only once every five days. However, since she wrote on the prescription that the second dose will be taken tomorrow, I think she should come tomorrow morning." Doctor Liu said.

As soon as he finished speaking, a little maid screamed, "Master!"

General Ming on the sedan chair spat out another large mouthful of blood. He seemed to be breathing out more than inhaling, and looked like he was dying.

Anyone could see that General Ming looked like he wouldn't be able to wait until tomorrow.

Doctor Liu also saw it naturally. He even guessed that General Ming might not have used the prescription he had offered, which led to the aggravation of his hematemesis.

Madam Ming didn't bother to talk to Doctor Liu anymore. She rushed to General Ming and shouted in panic, "Master! Master, how are you?"

What responded to her was another large mouthful of blood, which frightened her so much that she almost burst into tears.

This was the scene that the veiled Chu Qianchen and Amber saw when they came to Jishidiang together.
