The carriage stopped outside the Liu Mansion on Nankang Street. Two long strings of lanterns were hung outside the door, illuminating the red lacquered door particularly dazzlingly.
Two huge stone lions squatted outside the door, highlighting the noble status of the owner of the mansion.
The official rank of Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs is from the first rank, and his position among the hundreds of officials shows his prominence.
Liu Shangshu, who returned to the mansion first, had already arranged things in the mansion and was waiting at the gate of the mansion. When he saw the carriage stopped, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
After the last time in the main hall, King Jing showed his thoughtfulness and love for Xia Yuanqiu. No matter how intimate they were at this time, Liu Shangshu didn't feel anything was wrong. From the appearance of the two, they looked like a match made in heaven. Plus the emperor's I agree, it is only a matter of time for the two of them to get married, and it is normal for them to be intimate.
Liu Shangshu led the two of them straight to the Juning Courtyard where the old lady lived. Perhaps because of the late night, the courtyard was a little cold. There were a few lonely lanterns hanging on the road. The huge courtyard had a sense of depression and loneliness. feeling.
Yuan Qiu began to believe Zhu Yan's words. Liu Shangshu might not have a good relationship with his aunt, and he tried desperately to save her life just to keep his official career unhindered.
She shook her head and shook away the thoughts from her mind. What did these have to do with her? She is just a doctor, isn't it enough to just save people
There must be something hateful about the poor people in the world, she firmly believed that.
The old lady was confused, her skin was yellow and thin, her eyes were sunken, her heartbeat was rapid, and she had recurring low-grade fever, but there was no sign of wind or cold invading her body.
She was once the best general practitioner and the top master of traditional Chinese medicine in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. Even without the aid of advanced medical equipment, she could draw diagnostic conclusions based on these appearances.
The old lady suffered from type 2 diabetes, which was called diabetes mellitus in ancient times. She had not received correct and effective treatment for a long time, which led to the emergence of complications, and she became increasingly weak.
She inserted a silver needle into an acupuncture point on the old lady's back and used her unique method to detect the old lady's blood pressure.
As she expected, the old lady's blood pressure was very high, which was the direct cause of her sudden coma.
"How? Is there still hope?" Liu Shangshu looked anxious, full of hope for Xia Yuanqiu in his heart. Although the doctors at the imperial hospital asked him to start preparing for the funeral, he still had confidence in Xia Yuanqiu.
Xia Yuanqiu frowned: "It's not clear yet. I'll give her acupuncture first and see how it goes."
After all, she is getting older and it is not clear whether she has other diseases. The old lady is unable to speak now, and she is not sure. She will lower her blood pressure first and then check the situation.
The Nine Yin and Nine Yang decompression acupuncture method is a relatively simple and commonly used acupuncture method in the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Acupuncture Secret Code. Yu Xia Yuanqiu is even more proficient in it.
Liu Shangshu was also a well-informed person, and the imperial doctor often gave his mother acupuncture. He had seen a lot, but he had never seen a doctor who could practice acupuncture so beautifully and quickly. She could identify the acupuncture points accurately and administer the acupuncture quickly. , the speed of narrowing the needle is like an old embroiderer embroidering on an embroidery frame, she can accurately put the needle in the right place with her eyes closed, without any error.
After the decompression acupuncture was completed, she felt the old lady's pulse again. The original impatience and confusion had subsided, and her blood pressure had dropped.
"How is it?" Liu Shangshu saw her frown gradually widening and hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
Yuan Qiu nodded: "Well, it's getting better!"
Liu Shangshu was overjoyed and was about to thank him when he heard Yuan Qiu say again: "Don't thank me yet, it's just that things have improved, not that we are completely out of danger!"
She stood up, turned to face Liu Shangshu, and said, "The old lady has been ill for a long time. Is she probably bedridden for a long time?"
