Chapter 78 Detoxification
Is there a problem? The King of Qi realized that this was a warning to them. It seemed that General Gu's wife was quite smart.
The military doctor also reacted. Yes, how could someone with medical skills not see that Gu Chengze only took one pill? It seemed that this move was to guard against them.
After Li Zheng boiled the medicine, she fed it to him spoonful by spoonful, but it was not very noticeable at the moment. At this moment, a military doctor wanted to come over to check on the situation. She thought about it for a moment and agreed.
The military doctor greeted Li Zheng as soon as he entered. "Hello, Doctor Gu." Li Zheng was a little surprised by the address. There had never been a female doctor in this dynasty, so why would she be called a doctor? "Hello, may I ask who you are..." Li Zheng saw that the man looked to be in his twenties, with regular features and clear eyes. He was dressed in a long, cyan robe and had a very elegant demeanor.
"Hello, Doctor Gu. My name is Liu Yun and I'm a doctor. I heard that Doctor Gu can cure this poison, so I came here to see you." Liu Yun was just picking up herbs in the pharmacy in the military camp when he heard someone say that General Gu's wife had arrived and was treating him in General Gu's tent. Military Advisor Qin also bought the medicine and came back.
Liu Yun couldn't help but want to come over to see General Gu. They all knew that General Gu was ill, and he had even gone there that day to check on General Gu's pulse. However, he really didn't have any way to treat him. Although he had been in the pharmacy for the past few days, reading medical books, he hadn't found any effective treatment.
At this moment, Li Zheng arrived, which really hit Liu Yun right in the bud! Liu Yun didn't care about anything else and hurried over to take a look. Of course, he didn't covet the prescription, but just wanted to ask how it was confirmed. Coveting other people's prescriptions is a taboo.
As soon as Li Zheng saw Liu Yun's eager eyes, she knew that Liu Yun might be a research fanatic or something like that. "Hello, Doctor Liu, please don't call me doctor, I'm not a doctor." She didn't dare to call herself a doctor after all, she didn't know how to take a pulse.
Liu Yun disagreed with this and said, "Doctor Gu, the fact that you were able to cure General Gu's poison shows how powerful your medical skills are. If you don't dare to call yourself a doctor, then we don't dare either." He just smelled the smell of medicine and knew that General Gu had just drunk the medicine. Looking at General Gu's face, although he had not woken up yet, his face looked much better, so he knew how powerful Li Zheng was.
Seeing that he was being too serious, Li Zheng couldn't continue, so she asked him to take Gu Chengze's pulse. Liu Yun readily agreed. This meant close observation. He didn't realize that Li Zheng didn't know how to do it, and thought it was a chance for him to observe. He was even more convinced that Li Zheng was not only a good doctor, but also a good person.
Li Zheng saw Liu Yun taking the patient's pulse and asked him quietly, "Doctor Liu, are you the only doctor in this barracks?"
"No, there are several other people besides me. Otherwise, if it were just me, no one in this barracks would be able to see a doctor."
"Who treated General Gu before?" She hadn't asked Qin You who that doctor was yet, so she could ask Doctor Liu now and find out his whereabouts and why he hadn't been seen in the past few days.
"It was previously under the care of Doctor Xiang, who is the best doctor here. However, it seems that someone has fallen ill these days and has been coming there every day." Li Zheng understood as soon as she heard it. It seemed that Doctor Xiang had given the medicine to that person. She admired the fact that he could still keep his composure until now.
"Doctor Gu, General Gu's pulse has become much steadier. He will probably be fine after taking a few doses. He should wake up tonight." Doctor Liu didn't know Li Zheng's last name was Li, so he kept calling him Doctor Gu, but Li Zheng didn't want to correct him.
She thought to herself that this pulse diagnosis was truly miraculous; it could even tell when the child would wake up. "Thank you, Doctor Liu."
"Hey, Doctor Gu, you absolutely can't do that. I didn't do anything." Then he remembered something and said, "Doctor Gu, I'll come back tomorrow morning." Li Zheng was also amused when she saw this. It seemed that Doctor Liu really had the potential to study crazy demons. But it was nothing, so she agreed.
Just after sending Doctor Liu away, Qin You came in with a bad look on his face. Seeing that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, it was only when Li Zheng asked him what happened that he said, "The prince wants to see you." Qin You had just learned that the prince was going to summon Li Zheng, so he hurried over. It seemed that the prince really did it.
"Yeah, I get it." It seemed like he couldn't wait any longer. "I'll go with you." Qin You was also afraid that the prince would do something bad to her. She thought about it and agreed. It would be better to have someone around.
When they arrived at the tent of King Qi, someone stopped Qin You at the door and said that the prince had only summoned Li Zheng. Li Zheng said to Qin You, "It's okay, you wait here, I'll be back soon." Qin You wanted to say something, but when he saw the tent of King Qi, he shut up and signaled her with his eyes to call him if anything happened.
Li Zheng understood his gesture and nodded before going in. Once inside, she saw a figure sitting upstairs. It was obvious it was the King of Qi. Li Zheng simply bowed her head and said, "Hello, King Qi," without kneeling in greeting. This caused the King of Qi's eyes to narrow and then open again. Without any hesitation, he asked directly, "I heard you cured General Gu?"
"Although I have used medicine, the poison has not been completely detoxified." She did not want to hide it. Doctor Liu knew that Gu Chengze's condition had improved, so she certainly could not hide it from him.
"Then please show me my son. He has the same illness as General Gu." Without waiting for her to reply, he led her behind the screen. When she came back in, Li Zheng smelled a faint medicinal scent, exactly the same as the prescription she had written. She clenched her fists tightly, suppressing the anger in her heart.
When I got behind the screen, I saw the man lying on the bed. His cheeks were sunken, his eyes were dark, and his lips were black. He was in a worse condition than Gu Chengze. But this man looked very familiar. Suddenly I remembered that he was Wang Lang, the son of a prince. No wonder he was being hunted down.
She didn't say much, seeing the three packets of medicine next to her, she began to sort them. She put the selected herbs aside and bowed before leaving. Li Zheng walked faster and faster, suppressing her anger. She was so fast that Qin You saw her coming out and she hadn't caught up with her before she left.
When Li Zheng saw Wang Lang, she knew that the medicine was for him to take, but she didn't expect that he would take all the rest. Otherwise, how could he have survived until now! No wonder when she came, he was almost there, he just...
It seems that the King of Qi is not a good person either! His son's life is his life, isn't it? Moreover, taking it away without asking is simply a bandit act. And the King of Qi just took out the medicine bag without saying anything, just telling her not to waste any time, and his attitude of knowing everything about you made her angry.
