Chapter 435: Miserable
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The older Yao Yao and Yu Jianjia shared the same bloodline, so she was the most suitable candidate to be the “medicinal catalyst.”
Therefore, Song Mingzhao had gathered all kinds of expensive and rare medicinal herbs and poisons in the world, raising the older Yao Yao into a “medicinal catalyst” for Yu Jianjia to extract blood.
Every time the older Yao Yao was pricked with a needle to draw blood, a silver needle would be inserted into her chest.
This silver needle would make the older Yao Yao’s heart feel like it was being stabbed by a knife. She would be in so much pain that she would rather die. Just like Song Mingzhao, her entire body would convulse.
When it was extremely painful, Yao Yao would even vomit blood. A maidservant held a jade bowl and specially for her blood.
This was the “heart blood” that Yu Jianjia needed.
After that, the silver needle was removed. They would not waste the blood that seeped out of her chest!
Yu Youyao suddenly took a step back, her expression not too good.
Not to mention Yu Youyao, even Old Madam Yu, who had lived for most of her life, couldn’t help but be shocked. She couldn’t help but tear up. “This child, why are you like this…”
“Mingzhao.” Tears rushed out of the Marquis of Zhenguo’s wife’s eyes again.
She quickly rushed to the bed. As she took a handkerchief and hurriedly wiped Song Mingzhao’s blood, she cried, “Why are you vomiting blood again? How much blood do you have to vomit like this? You child, are you scaring me to death…”
Old Madam Song, who was leaning against the bed, also wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
The atmosphere in the room was gloomy.
Old Madam Yu immediately turned around and said to Yu Youyao, “Hurry up and use the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill on Mingzhao.”
“Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill?!” Old Madam Songs turbid eyes were red and swollen as she looked at Yu Youyao. “Yes, yes, Lord Shi said that the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill is most effective for fainting without taking medicine…”
Yu Youyao wasn’t sure if the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill could save Song Mingzhao. Under the expectant gazes of the room, she couldn’t help but feel a little flustered.
For a moment, she was stunned.
Old Madam Yu had also guessed this situation. She patted her hand. “Just do your best.”
It turned out that it was also because Song Mingzhao was about to die that they had asked the Yu Residence for the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill. They were treating it as a last resort. Whether Song Mingzhao could survive depended on his own luck. No matter what, it was not the Yu Residence’s fault.
The Zhenguo Marquis Residence found out that Yao Yao had made the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill, and that Yao Yao had saved Brother Si l s life with it previously.
Even Lord Shi said that this medicine had a miraculous effect.
Even if she hadn’t asked Yao Yao to come to the Zhenguo Marquis Residence, the Marquis’s wife would have knelt down to her for her son. She definitely would have asked Yao Yao to come along.
Yao Yao couldn’t refuse when the Marquis’s wife opened her mouth. Instead of waiting for someone to speak, she might as well just open her mouth.
Yu Youyao also understood this logic, so even if she was unwilling, she had tacitly agreed when her grandmother wanted to bring her to the Zhenguo Marquis Residence.
Yu Youyao took a deep breath and said, “The Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill only needs to be burned in an incense cauldron!”
As she spoke, she opened the incense cauldron and quickly cleaned up the incense ash inside. She took out a musk medicinal fragrance pill the size of a longan that was sealed with wax. After removing the wax, she placed it into the incense cauldron.
There was still small charcoal burning in the fire under the incense cauldron.
Yu Youyao instructed the maidservant beside her, “Put the incense burner on the small table beside Heir Song.”
The maidservant immediately did as she was told.
After that, Yu Youyao took out another Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill. “I need a medicinal mortar for medicinal purposes and straw paper for moxibustion.”
Song Mingzhao had been unconscious and his condition wasn’t good. He had to use medicine from time to time, so some of the commonly used items were prepared in the room.
Yu Youyao spoke.
Immediately, someone handed it to her. “You want to use the Musk Medicinal
Fragrance Pill as moxibustion to treat Song Mingzhao?”
Yu Youyao felt that this voice sounded a little familiar. She looked up. “Imperial Physician Shi.”
Imperial Physician Shi stroked his long beard and nodded. He continued, “This isn’t a bad idea. The incense needs to be breathed into the body through the nose, then circulated through the human body’s meridians to have an effect. However, Song Mingzhao has been in a coma for a long time. Not only is his breathing weak, but he’s also unconscious. The incense won’t be able to achieve the treatment effect for a while. However, the medicinal effect can seep into the human body as soon as possible.”
Yu Youyao nodded. “I don’t know much about the acupuncture points of the human body. I don’t know how to treat him or which acupuncture points to target. I’ll have to trouble Imperial Physician Shi to do it for me.”
In fact, Nanny Xu had also taught her about acupuncture points. She just didn’t want to save Song Mingzhao personally.
Not to mention whether the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill was useful to Song Mingzhao, could her method save him? Since she was not confident in this matter, she should try her best not to get involved, in case she did not save him and caused trouble instead.
The Yu Residence had taken out the rare Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill to treat Song Mingzhao. She had also come to the Zhenguo Marquis Residence with her grandmother today. This was because of the relationship between the two families.
Even if Song Mingzhao was not saved, it was only because he was unlucky.
The Yu Residence could also still remain friends with the Zhenguo Marquis Residence.
However, if she interfered too much, it would easily cause resentment.
She didn’t trust human nature. The best thing to do was never test it in the first place.
Imperial Physician Shi was old and wise, so he did not refuse. However, when he looked at Yu Youyao, he was very happy. “Girl, you’re very ingenious. I heard that you learned pharmacology from Nanny?”
Yu Youyao nodded. “I just learned a little.”
The pharmacology that Nanny Xu had taught was for “nurturing”. It was very different from what doctors had learned. Some medicines had the same medicinal properties, but there were thousands of ways to use them.
Different usages could not be generalized.
When Imperial Physician Shi heard this, he knew that this girl was being humble. He did not believe that she could make a rare medicine like the Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill just by learning a little.
He felt that Yu Youyao was an interesting little girl. “Little Yuj I see that you have some talent in treating and saving people. Do you want to learn medicine?
This wasn’t the first time Yu Youyao had heard this.
Nanny Xu had sighed with emotion. If she hadn’t been from a wealthy family and studied medicine well for a few years, there might have been a “female divine doctor” with brilliant medical skills in this world.
Uncle Sun had also said that he even wanted her to acknowledge him as her master.
She liked pharmacology purely because she felt that she could use all kinds of medicinal herbs to make all kinds of medicinal fragrances, medicinal tea, and even medicinal cuisine.
On the other hand, she had the spiritual dew and was proficient in pharmacology. It could allow her to maximize the effect of the spiritual dew.
She was not interested in learning medicine.
Her greatest wish was for the person she liked to live a long and peaceful life.
“Do you think that’s possible?” Yu Youyao poured the crushed Musk Medicinal Fragrance Pill out of the medicinal mortar and rolled it into a moxibustion strip with straw paper. There were only two moxibustion strips.
Imperial Physician Shi immediately remembered that she was the daughter of an official. He stroked his beard awkwardly. “That’s a pity.”
Yu Youyao handed the rolled moxibustion strips to Imperial Physician Shi.
Imperial Physician Shi did not waste any time. He took the moxibustion strip and went to bed. “Take off the heir’s shirt and wash his body with warm water..”
