Chapter 5 Surprise
The queen closed her eyes. She knew whether the imperial physician would come soon, or even if she did, she would not appear until the baby in her womb was born.
Both the first two times.
Right now, she can only pin her hopes on this ten-year-old child.
Xie Zhiwei skillfully pricked several large points on the queen's body, and she injected the needles steadily, accurately and quickly.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen silver needles appeared on the queen's body.
At the door, Imperial Physician Wang, who stepped in with one foot, was stunned, his eyes full of horror.
A layman watches the excitement, while an insider watches the doorway. He has been practicing medicine for decades, and he can tell at a glance that although this little girl is only about ten years old, her acupuncture skills are extraordinary. People are comparable.
The atmosphere in the room was very dull, making people breathless, everyone's eyes were on the empress, and everyone was silent.
It wasn't until the Queen's frown became flatter, and the pained look on her face gradually disappeared, that everyone's faces showed surprise, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Physician Wang is here!" A court lady in Tsing Yi whispered, and everyone looked at the door, only to see Doctor Wang trotting in with a medical box, and with a plop, knelt down and confessed, "Empress, Your Majesty!" Guilty, late!"
"You are indeed guilty!" The eldest princess said angrily, "The queen mother is pregnant, did you know it?"
Imperial Physician Wang kowtowed, "Princess, please calm down. I haven't asked for a peace pulse for the empress recently, and there has never been a pregnancy pulse in the empress's pulse case. I don't know!"
Those who do not know are not guilty!
The eldest princess still wanted to reprimand her, but the empress said weakly, "Yuan Jia, it's none of Wang's business!"
Doctor Wang breathed a sigh of relief, he only had time to look at Xie Zhiwei at this time, seeing that the little girl was only about ten years old, she gave each injection very quickly, and used different techniques, such as rubbing, scraping the tail, or Pressing, or shaking the bomb, flying through and out of breath, the empress's gray face soon became a little more lively.
Xie Zhiwei pinched the handle of one of the silver needles, twisted it several times, then spread two fingers, rubbed and released, repeated several times, like a bird spreading its wings, and the queen's whole body relaxed accordingly.
"alright!"
Xie Zhiwei raised her sleeves and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She quickly reported the names of the medicines, "Four cents for Polygonatum odoratum, three cents for angelica, one cent for Dipsacus and five cents for Eucommia, one cent for Poria, one cent for Scutellaria, and one cent for Atractylodes macrocephala. Money, Chuanxiong and Licorice are eight cents each..."
Imperial Physician Wang frowned. This prescription should be based on Baotai powder, but Chuanqiong and licorice only cost eight cents?
He was suspicious when he heard Xie Zhiwei say the last two medicines, "3 qian for ramie root, 3 qian for dodder seed, 1 qian for perilla seed..."
Sure enough, she was just a ten-year-old girl. Although she was really good at acupuncture, it was probably just a family background. The prescription was not only based on memorizing a few medical books, but experience.
"I don't know if the girl knows the medicinal properties and efficacy of perilla seeds?" Imperial Physician Wang couldn't help asking.
Just now, it was clear that Xie Zhiwei saved the queen's life. Even if Imperial Physician Wang looked down on Xie Zhiwei's ability, he shouldn't have asked such humiliating words.
Xie Zhiwei looked at Imperial Physician Wang coldly. If she recited the medicinal properties and efficacy of perilla seeds on the spot, even if she was correct word for word, she would be inferior. Doctor Wang clearly meant that she could not prescribe accurate prescriptions by memorizing medical books.
"Dare to ask who you are?"
Imperial Physician Wang's face turned cold. He was wearing a fifth-rank imperial physician's official uniform. This little girl is clearly from a good family background, can't you tell?
"My surname is Wang!" Imperial Physician Wang said arrogantly.
"You look like an imperial doctor in your clothes. I don't know who your teacher is? If you don't know the medicine and efficacy of perilla seeds, you might as well go back and read more "Compendium of Materia Medica."
Physician Wang was so angry that his face was livid. "Compendium of Materia Medica" is for people who study medicine, just like "Three Character Classic" is for scholars, it is used for enlightenment.
A ten-year-old girl humiliated him so much!
"Dare to ask who is the teacher of the girl?" Wang Taiyi thought, he didn't have to be serious with a ten-year-old girl, and asked her about her education, but he would go to the little girl's teacher for advice.
Xie Zhiwei could see clearly the thoughts of Imperial Physician Wang, she glanced at this man with a half-smile, and decided to save some face for him.
"Why, the girl dare not say it?" Imperial Physician Wang stroked the long beard on his chin triumphantly, "Practicing medical medicine is related to human life. If the teacher of the girl has not taught the girl these things, the old man is willing to do it for her."
The eldest princess snorted coldly, she really didn't know what her father did to raise these useless imperial physicians, each of them was not very capable and angry, she couldn't help mocking, "Miss Xie studied under her uncle Cui, the imperial physician, and you are the imperial physician?" With a serious tone, help Miracle Cui to heal and teach his disciples!"
It was Dr. Cui! Doctor Wang gasped, but he forgot that every generation of the Cui family has a genius doctor who "becomes a good doctor if he is not a good looker".
But Miss Xie, is only ten years old? Mother began to study medicine in her womb, and it was impossible for her to be very good.
Xie Zhiwei picked up the prescription written by the little **** and took a look. There was no mistake, and nodded, "Take the medicine and decoct it!"
Seeing that the queen was already well, Nanny Xi didn't hesitate any longer, and without waiting for orders, she quickly arranged for someone to grab the medicine and stared at the decoction herself.
Wang Imperial Physician shook his head in disappointment, how could he drink the soup casually, and said to the queen again, "Your Majesty, please listen to my advice..."
"Doctor Wang thinks the empress is having an ordinary miscarriage?" Xie Zhiwei didn't wait for the doctor Wang to finish, and said again, "Even if the empress doesn't fall like this today, within three days, the fetus will be lost."
Physician Wang was shocked. Although he hadn't asked for the Queen's Ping An pulse recently, he often asked for it in the past. Why didn't he find any abnormalities?
Xie Zhiwei seemed to see through his thoughts, and squinted, "The empress has a toxin in her body. This toxin is not harmful to the empress's body, but it will make the empress unable to conceive. If you are pregnant with a dragon species, you will definitely be pregnant within one month. There will be a miscarriage, if repeated many times, the empress's body will not be able to bear it, and she will not be pregnant again in the future."
Imperial Physician Wang's legs were like sieves, and his body was covered in cold sweat. At this moment, he couldn't care about anything else, and sat down on the stool in front of the Empress's bed, "My Lady, please take the pulse!"
The empress was also stunned and stretched out her hand tremblingly.
"The left inch is heavy, the left pass is heavy, the right inch is thin and weak, the right pass is needy but lacks spirit..." Xie Zhiwei pointed out, "My lady must have dizziness from time to time these years, and occasionally night sweats when sleeping at night. In the boat, the dysmenorrhea did not recur in the past. All the signs are actually related to the poisoning of the empress. Fortunately, the empress is in a strong body. Even if she slips through the second child, it will only make her body less damaged. Otherwise, this child, even if there are ministers Girl, it is bound to be hard to protect."
After signing the contract, there will be more updates!
The contract is on the way.
