The Prince Regent’s Violent Medical Consort

Chapter 17: Tit for tat

Views:

The muscles on the Queen's face trembled a few times, and her eyes seemed to be ignited by fire, making people afraid to look directly at her. She pointed at the imperial doctor and shouted almost at the top of her lungs: "No matter what method you use, I will kill Liang Liang." Wang rescued him."

"Yes, yes!" The imperial doctor was frightened, turned around hurriedly, and asked someone to go to the Tai Hospital to find someone.

All the imperial doctors came, and even the court judge hurried over.

There was chaos in the palace. The Queen was sitting on the Grand Master's chair. Her former dignity had been torn apart by fear. She held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand and recited scriptures randomly, but her heart could not calm down and her eyes kept looking towards the bed. .

The prince was also standing by, but his expression was quite leisurely, which was in sharp contrast to the anxiety and panic in the room.

It seemed that the person lying on the bed about to lose his life was not his brother.

The court judge looked very solemn as he drank the decoction, but he choked so much that King Liang almost stopped breathing. He did not dare to use any more medicine.

In this situation, if the breathing problem cannot be relieved quickly, King Liang will be in danger of life.

Using acupuncture is the fastest and most effective method. It can open the meridians from acupuncture points. Although it cannot be said that it can definitely save King Liang, it can at least make breathing easier and postpone the danger.

Moreover, now that medicine cannot be used to get in, the only way is to use needles.

However, there are almost no people in Taiyuan Hospital who are proficient in acupuncture. The only one who has studied it is the court judge.

The decision-making power of final treatment is also in the hands of the court.

The court judge looked at the queen who was turning Buddhist scriptures to the side, and slowly knelt down, "Queen, the only way to save Prince Liang now is to use acupuncture."

"Acupuncture?" The queen's eyebrows beat a few times, and she couldn't help but think of Xia Zian's words again.

She hurriedly put down her beads and looked at the judge, "Are you confident about acupuncture?"

The court judge looked a little embarrassed, "I don't have much confidence, but this is the only way."

The Queen couldn't help but feel disappointed, "Then the Japanese Palace asked you about acupuncture, and you said that acupuncture is not appropriate. What should you do if you make a mistake when using acupuncture?"

The court judge said: "There are risks in administering acupuncture at will, but if it is administered by someone who is proficient in acupuncture, it can greatly alleviate the current situation of His Highness Prince Liang. When the Empress asked me about it that day, I would answer like this, It’s because I have never met a doctor who is proficient in acupuncture, but the theory of bloodletting is feasible, but it is a pity that I don’t know where to find such a miracle doctor. "

He suddenly raised his head and said, "Madam, who is the person who suggested pricking acupuncture points for bloodletting? Even if he doesn't know the art of acupuncture, he may know some expert."

The queen thought of Xia Zianlai and expected that a boudoir girl did not know the art of acupuncture. However, she talked about these things in one way. Could it be that she really knew some expert

No, no, logically it wouldn't happen. Then Xia Zian and Yuan Shi have been in the Prime Minister's Mansion and have never seen much of the world. Prime Minister Xia will not let her go out to interact with people. How can she know any experts

After hearing what the court judge said, an imperial doctor stepped forward and said: "Empress, it's impossible for Xia Zian to know any masters. What medical skills does a woman know? She only knows a few words. In the field of history or some folk doctors I saw it in a third-rate medical book, so I boasted that the best doctors in the world were all in the palace."

This imperial physician's surname was Liu, and he was the imperial physician who came to rescue King Liang when he fell ill. He had recently been promoted to deputy court judge.

That day, An proposed acupuncture, and he was very unhappy with Zi An. A woman in a deep boudoir dared to give advice to the imperial doctor of the court.

The Queen looked at Imperial Physician Liu and felt that what he said made sense. When she was about to speak, the Crown Prince on the side suddenly became interested after hearing what Imperial Physician Liu said. ?”

Liu Yuyi said: "Your Highness, Xia Zian has no medical skills. What he said seems feasible, but it is difficult to implement. If it is not handled well, it will kill people's lives. Such words must not be believed."

The prince looked at the judge, "Did you just say that acupuncture is the only way?"

The court judge told the truth truthfully, "If I return to your highness, Prince Liang is now having trouble breathing due to a foreign object choking his trachea. In addition, he cannot pour the concoction. There is really no other way except acupuncture."

The prince hummed, looked at the queen and said: "Mother, in the current situation of the emperor's brother, we have no choice but to rely on acupuncture to save him. Although acupuncture has certain dangers, if we don't use acupuncture, we will just watch the emperor helplessly." If my brother dies, it is better to summon that Xia Zian to the palace. It would be best if she knows medical skills. If not, ask her who said those words and invite that expert to come to the palace. Heal your brother."

The queen did not expect him to say these words. It seemed that although there were fights in the past, there was always brotherly love, and it showed at the critical moment of life and death.

Tears welled up in her eyelashes, "Qiao'er, my mother is really happy that you can say this. It shows that you always care about your imperial brother."

The prince also had a sad look on his face, "Mother, the reason why the emperor is disabled is because of my son. If he hadn't saved his son back then, he wouldn't have been injured and became disabled. I have always been grateful to the emperor in my heart, but I feel guilty. Excessive, unable to face it, over time, a rift developed in my heart. Looking back on it now, I feel very regretful. Now my father is still lying on the hospital bed, uncertain about his life or death, and my brother is like this. If I am still ignorant, what will happen in this world in the future? Who do you expect?"

The queen held his hand, feeling mixed in her heart. She was happy that the two brothers had finally reconciled, but sad that Xin'er was still lying on the bed, not knowing whether she would live or die.

She had to be cautious, especially as it related to Xin'er's life.

After pondering for a moment, she still had to make a decision, "Come on, invite the regent into the palace first."

The emperor is seriously ill and no one is allowed to visit him now. However, he had said before that any major decisions must be made before the regent Murong Jie.

Therefore, even though the queen was very reluctant to see this brother-in-law, she still had to send someone to ask him for advice.

Because if anything goes wrong, in addition to losing a son, she will also be implicated in her wrong decision.

The people in the palace hurriedly went to invite the regent.

The court judge hesitated for a moment and said: "Empress, His Royal Highness Prince Liang is in critical condition now. If we invite the regent to come, we may prevent his condition from changing again."

The queen raised her eyes and said, "Then what do you have in mind? Neither of you are good at acupuncture, nor are you proficient in it. Someone must make the decision."

Doctor Liu immediately knelt down and said: "Empress, I have studied acupuncture. Although I am not proficient in it, I think it can alleviate the condition of His Highness Prince Liang."

When the court judge heard this, he looked horrified, "Master Liu, this is not an act of force. It involves the life and death of His Royal Highness Prince Liang. Your acupuncture skills are not yet up to par, so you must not use acupuncture indiscriminately."

Ever since Dr. Liu was promoted to deputy judge, he had been thinking about kicking this official away. Although he scolded Xia Zian that day, he thought about it later and checked the medical books and found that she was very right. Makes sense.

Although he was not fully confident in his acupuncture skills and could not perform the step of pricking acupuncture points and bleeding, he could still relieve his breathing.
