Chapter 68: Lying, the famous female doctor in Kyushu
Bad liver?
Lin Miaoyin subconsciously looked at the Queen Mother's chest.
The Queen Mother noticed her gaze, slowly raised her hand, and pulled open the collar of her shirt, revealing a few old scars the size of keyholes. "When the Emperor was young, he had a serious illness, and I once donated my liver to save him."
Donate liver to save son?
Lin Miaoyin looked surprised.
As far as she knows, in this era, treatment is all done with traditional Chinese medicine, and there is no systematic surgical operation yet, right?
Even if someone wants to undergo surgery, the conditions are not met.
Unless... there is assistance from the medical system.
Obviously not possible.
Emperor Ming is forty-six this year. His childhood illness happened at least forty years ago, and the research institute only started studying the medical system twenty years ago.
And before her, all the volunteers who had the chip transplanted, except Fanfan, had died.
She had seen with her own eyes the bodies of the volunteers being buried.
Only Fanfan's "body" is missing, which is why she firmly believes that Fanfan is still alive.
If the Queen Mother lied, how do you explain the scar on her chest?
This is clearly a scar left after minimally invasive surgery.
It doesn't belong to this era at all!
Lin Miaoyin's consciousness wandered within the medical system and she began to examine the Queen Mother.
Her liver is intact, so there is no question of liver removal.
What is going on?
Just when she was suspicious, the empress dowager suddenly threw something out from under the pillow, which startled Lin Miaoyin so much that she opened her eyes wide.
Stethoscope!
How can there be stethoscopes in this era?
Could it be that besides her and Fanfan, there were other people who had traveled here with the medical system?
The Queen Mother looked calm, "It seems that you are familiar with this thing."
"The Imperial Grandmother is joking. My granddaughter-in-law doesn't recognize me."
"If you don't recognize him, how did you pass on the finger to the young master of Prince Qi's mansion?"
The Queen Mother looked like she knew everything. She glanced at the stethoscope beside her and said, "Okay, now use this to check my body."
Lin Miaoyin knew that she couldn't deceive her, so she did as she was told.
The Queen Mother slowly closed her eyes and calmly accepted Lin Miaoyin's inquiries.
Lin Miaoyin was a little puzzled. Since someone had once performed a liver resection on the Empress Dowager using minimally invasive therapy, why was her liver intact?
"Is there something wrong with my liver?"
"Grandmother, because part of your liver was removed in your early years, you often have indigestion problems. But it's not a big problem. Just ask the imperial physician at the Imperial Hospital to prescribe some medicine for you. You should pay attention to your diet and try to eat light food, less greasy food, and eat small meals more often."
The Queen Mother did not take Lin Miaoyin's words to heart. She raised her eyelids faintly and asked, "What is your relationship with Gu Luoxi?"
Lin Miaoyin's heart skipped a beat.
The name Gu Luoxi left some impression in the original owner's memory, but he did not know much about it.
All we know is that she is a female doctor famous throughout the entire Kyushu continent.
She spoke cautiously, "Grandmother, I don't know this person."
"lie!"
The Queen Mother said in a dignified voice, "This thing in your hand is what she left behind!"
Lin Miaoyin immediately understood.
It turns out that Gu Luoxi is the predecessor who traveled to this time and space with the medical system!
She knelt down hurriedly and said, "Please calm down, Grandmother. I really don't know this person. When I was a child recuperating in Jiangzhou, a female doctor taught me medical skills and gave me a lot of medicines and treatment tools, including this stethoscope. She never told me her name, so I don't know that she is the famous female doctor of Jiuzhou."
"That's her style," the Queen Mother murmured.
Lin Miaoyin went to Jiangzhou to recuperate ten years ago, which coincides with the time when Gu Luoxi disappeared.
It turned out that Lin Miaoyin was the successor she chose.
only……
"Since you know medical skills, how come I have never heard of it before?"
"My granddaughter's father is a well-known old-fashioned man who has always believed that women are virtuous if they are not talented. I dare not let him know about this. If my father was not seriously ill, I would not have revealed my medical skills."
"What a pity." The Queen Mother looked a little disappointed.
Given Gu Luoxi's personality, why would he choose such a timid and cowardly person?
"Where is your master now?"
"My granddaughter-in-law doesn't know that after we parted that year, I never saw her again."
The Queen Mother lost interest immediately and said, "I am tired, please go back."
"Granddaughter-in-law, take your leave."
Lin Miaoyin bowed and left, and the Queen Mother stopped her again, "The Emperor is asking questions, you know what to say, right?"
"Yes. The Royal Grandmother had some liver discomfort. My granddaughter-in-law checked her with a stethoscope and it's not a big problem." Lin Miaoyin answered truthfully.
The Queen Mother said "hmm" faintly, motioning Lin Miaoyin to leave.
Lin Miaoyin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The Queen Mother asked her to enter the palace tonight to see a doctor, but that was a lie. The real purpose was to find out the whereabouts of Gu Luoxi.
It seems that the Queen Mother had already determined her identity before she entered the palace.
Was it the hemostatic patch she left behind after she treated Emperor Ming last time that exposed him?
Last time she offended Emperor Ming, he not only did not punish her, but also rewarded her. She had always thought that she had discovered the secret of Emperor Ming pretending to be sick, so he could only take advantage of the situation and acknowledge her medical skills. Now it seems that this matter is also related to Gu Luoxi.
I guess after tonight, she will become Gu Luoxi's closed disciple.
Lin Miaoyin was somewhat curious about this "master".
How did she travel to this time and space with the medical system forty years ago? What is the difference between the medical system she brought back then and the medical system she has now?
After leaving Fushou Palace, Lin Miaoyin let out a long sigh.
She did not gain nothing from tonight's incident. At least she had a reasonable explanation for the secrets of the medical system and her medical skills.
Even if she used modern medicine to treat patients, she didn't have to worry about being regarded as a witch. All the inexplicable medical skills and behaviors could be attributed to her "master" Gu Luoxi, after all, she was a pioneer of modern medicine in this time and space.
It seems that this era is very receptive to advanced medical technology and equipment, and she was being too cautious.
She finally felt relieved that she could practice medicine normally in the future. However, she did not expect that the problem that had been bothering her would be solved in this way.
As soon as she walked out, Beigong You came up to her and asked, "How is it?"
"Grandmother is in good health."
Lin Miaoyin gave a simple reply, and Beigong You did not ask any more questions. The two of them went to the imperial study to report.
However, when he arrived at the Imperial Study, he was told that Emperor Ming had returned to the Palace of Heavenly Purity a cup of tea ago and should have gone to bed by now.
Beigong You bowed respectfully, then said to Lin Miaoyin, "Go back."
The two men left the palace and rode back home.
Beigong You, who was sitting behind Lin Miaoyin, could clearly feel that her state of mind at this moment was completely different from when she entered the palace. It seemed that even her breathing had become a little lighter. He vaguely guessed that something happy must have happened when she was in Fushou Palace.
But as far as he knew, the Queen Mother did not like Lin Miaoyin.
He never treated her well.
He originally thought that the Queen Mother summoned Lin Miaoyin to see a doctor this time, but the purpose was fake and the reprimand was real. After all, Lin Miaoyin had been too bold to see the emperor without authorization last time!
"What exactly happened in Fushou Palace?" he asked.
