Chapter 77: Prescription
"The military doctors here were all recruited by the prince." Qin You lowered his voice and told Li Zheng something, then glanced outside. Before Li Zheng could say anything, she heard a commotion outside. She thought someone must have gotten the news and came over.
"You go and stop them, and tell them that I need to treat a patient and outsiders are not allowed to come in." Qin You knew what she was worried about at a glance. He was also worried that someone might do something bad to Cheng Ze on the way. "Okay, I'll go stop them. If you need anything, just call me outside." He didn't dare to trust the soldiers outside for the time being.
When Qin You opened the curtain, he saw General Wang and his party coming this way. When General Wang saw him, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well done, Qin You. It's only been a few days and you've brought the person back." He then quietly approached him and said, "But I heard people say that the person you brought back is a woman." Someone reported this to Qin You when he just came back. He was worried about Cheng Ze and was curious about who this person who could detoxify was.
Hearing this, Qin You's eyes turned and he said, "You all know this person. It's Mrs. Cheng Ze." These people had all attended Cheng Ze's wedding, and since they couldn't hide it anyway, they just admitted it openly.
The generals were shocked upon hearing this and looked at each other, realizing that no one knew about this. They hadn't expected Cheng Ze to be so lucky, to have such a skilled doctor. They had all been there the day Cheng Ze was poisoned, and had witnessed Cheng Ze's complexion improve after taking a pill. They were all curious about the drug. If they had this drug, wouldn't it be a way to save his life? Didn't they see Cheng Ze just hold on until the doctor arrived after losing his breath?
Qin You knew what they were thinking when he saw them getting ready to do something, but it was impossible now, after all, the person who wanted to harm Cheng Ze had not been found yet. He stopped them and said, "Don't go in now. Madam Gu is treating Cheng Ze right now. Don't disturb her. I'll let you know when she's better. Go back first." Then he started to drive them away.
These people had no choice but to return. Even though they were curious about Li Zheng's methods, it would be inconvenient for men like them to go in with her as she was a woman. They could only suppress their curiosity and return to wait for news. After all, the enemy had unexpectedly used poison to attack them recently, which caught them off guard. They were currently discussing how to deal with it.
"Okay, then wait for Cheng Ze to wake up and send us a message, and then we should go back to discuss how to attack the enemy." General Wang said to Qin You and left with the generals. After all, now that Cheng Ze has a doctor, the most important thing now is to discuss the enemy.
Li Zheng overheard their discussions outside, but didn't sense anything was wrong. It seemed this person was hiding something. Could it be that he had set his sights on the medicine? The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was the case. Otherwise, why would he give up such a great general? It seemed that this medicine was very important to that person.
After hearing them leave, she carefully examined Gu Chengze's injuries. According to Qin You, he must have inhaled the poison through his mouth and nose. After stripping him of his clothes, there were no special wounds or marks on his body. She could only feed him some spiritual spring water to delay the poison. It seemed that the person who made the poison was very skilled, but she couldn't see it anyway.
She could only use the most stupid method. Li Zheng took out a knife and cut Gu Chengze's arm. She used a bowl to catch the dark red blood and poured some of the blood into the spiritual spring water. Slowly, she could see the black substance in the blood disappearing and the color of the blood turning red.
It seems that this spiritual spring water can detoxify. In this way, the road ahead will be easier. I took out the medicinal herbs in the space and began to experiment one by one.
Qin You was guarding outside at this time. Although he was very sleepy and tired, he couldn't trust anyone now, so he could only cheer up. At dawn the next day, he heard Li Zheng calling him from inside. Qin You lifted the curtain and went in and asked, "What's wrong?" Could it be...
Li Zheng didn't have time to deal with him and handed him three prescriptions. "Here are the prescriptions. Go get them yourself." Qin You took the prescriptions with trembling hands. This meant he could be saved. Qin You knew she was worried about the medicine being tampered with, and he was worried too. "Don't worry, I'll go myself."
Li Zheng knew what he was thinking at first glance, but she didn't say much. After he left, she scanned the space with her consciousness. In fact, all these medicines were in the space, but it was inconvenient to take them out now. She asked Qin You to get the medicine just to have an excuse to take the medicine. She didn't plan to use the medicine outside. The medicine in the space was of better quality and worked faster. What was the point of using the outside medicine?
Li Zheng walked to the bed and fed Gu Chengze some spiritual spring water. She hadn't rested in the past few days, so she simply lay on the bed and took a nap. However, he put a bell at the door of the tent so that she could wake up if someone came in.
Qin You had just ridden his horse to get medicine when someone quietly walked into a tent to report the matter. The man turned around and asked the military doctor, "How long can you hold on?" He looked at the person lying on the bed beside him, and when he got closer, he saw that the person's symptoms were exactly the same as Qin You's!
The military doctor looked at the man and was unsure, but he still said, "Your Highness, this condition may occur at any time." The young man's complexion improved a lot after taking the medicine, but his physique was not as good as General Gu's, so he could not hold on for too long.
That’s right, Gu Chengze’s other medicine is with King Qi.
"Tell someone to follow." The guard immediately understood what the King of Qi meant, "Yes."
Qin You didn't know that just as he went to the pharmacy to buy medicine, someone said to the pharmacy, "What did he just buy? I want some too."
The child who was dispensing medicine was very cautious. "You and the person in front are..."
The guard didn't want to alert the enemy and directly took out his badge. When the child saw the badge, he didn't dare to say anything and immediately grabbed the medicine.
Qin You returned with a large bag of medicine and a clay pot for boiling it. Li Zheng took the bag and immediately opened it to sort out the ingredients. Qin You immediately understood, "This medicine..." Although he didn't know much about medicine, he knew that most purchased medicines were pre-mixed and could be boiled directly. He thought to himself, what a clever idea.
That's right, the prescription Li Zheng gave was divided into three parts, and some of the herbs were unused. If it was really as she thought, this person would probably follow her and buy the same medicine as her. If he found the problem with the medicine, he would naturally take the bait. But now is not the time to talk about this. The most urgent thing is to boil the medicine and detoxify it first.
While she asked Qin You to fetch water, she took the opportunity to replace the medicine with the one prepared in the space. However, she still needed to drink a few more doses of this medicine, as the poison had been in her body for too long.
The military doctor here had already received the three packets of medicine from Li Zheng. He opened them and examined them carefully. His frown deepened, but he still said, "Your Highness, there might be something wrong with this medicine."
