Chapter 154: Heng Zhao’s words in a dangerous place
After the man finished speaking, he didn’t even wait for Doctor Zhou and the others to agree. He grabbed the horse’s reins and led him away to the roadside.
Passing through the dense snow curtain, parked beside the road was a four-horse oil-walled incense cart with hanging flowers and Qibao roof and Sichuan brocade curtain.
There were many tall and powerful attendants standing around, which frightened Dr. Zhou so much that he did not dare to speak.
"Tell the people below to stand far away so as not to scare the imperial doctor." A woman in the car said.
The attendants hurriedly stepped aside, and also pulled away the young eunuch who was holding the horse for Dr. Zhou.
The curtains of the car were lifted, and the two maids were at the front. Because the wind was at their backs, the snow could not blow into the car.
"It turns out to be Dr. Zhou," the person in the car laughed, "It's hard for you to save people in such a cold weather."
Imperial Physician Zhou looked up and saw that sitting in the car were cousins Ma Feiyan and Yao Wanyi. He knelt down and paid his respects: "I don't know that I am the two princes and concubines in my humble position. Please forgive me!"
"Doctor Zhou, don't be too polite. Get up quickly! Our sisters have something to ask of you today." Ma Feiyan said and motioned to the maid in the car.
The maid jumped down and forced a heavy purse into Doctor Zhou's hand.
Imperial Physician Zhou did not dare to take the call, so Yao Wanyi said with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, if you don't take the call, are you too young or unwilling to serve us?"
Dr. Zhou knows this person's temper, and Dr. Lu, the most skilled medical practitioner in the hospital, has been demoted because he did not agree to replace her with human eyes.
He can't afford to offend.
Seeing Doctor Zhou take the purse, Ma Feiyan couldn't help but smile: "Mr. Zhou, what are you going to do when you go to see Lan Ning?"
When Dr. Zhou heard this, he trembled with fright and knelt down again.
"Beizhi came out of the palace to treat the fifth prince's concubine on the orders of Concubine Ying and Concubine Xian. If something goes wrong, Beizhi may lose his head."
"What Dr. Zhou said is too scary. You might lose your head." Ma Feiyan chuckled and shook her head. "It's true that I want you to go to the doctor. But since she has already had a difficult delivery and narrowly escaped death, what if anything goes wrong?"
I don’t blame you.”
"Then according to the wishes of the prince and concubine...how should one behave in a humble position?" Dr. Zhou gritted his teeth, but still said his bottom line, "It's just that since he is a doctor in a humble position, he must not harm others. What's more, the fifth prince's concubine...
”
"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to harm anyone." Ma Feiyan interrupted him, "As long as you don't try your best to cure them, that's enough."
The sky is dark and the lights have been turned on in the house.
"Why hasn't the imperial doctor come yet?" Mrs. Lan was so anxious that she couldn't sit still and walked back and forth underground.
"The snow is too heavy and the road is difficult to walk." Lan Ning's sister-in-law said, "I think we will get there if we wait a little longer."
Baoning Pill was not found either, and Nanny Qi did not dare to tell Lan Ning in front of her, for fear of making her anxious.
"Mommy, I'm a little anxious." Xue Hengzhao whispered to Grandma Qi, "I'm going to go outside."
Aunt Qi looked at her back and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
This girl is clearly an embroidered pillow beauty and lamp, she is just a beauty but not useful.
The empress thought she was clever and sent her out, but she didn't expect that her cleverness was only used for embroidering and making tea. When life was really at stake, not only were they of no use, but they became a burden.
Let’s talk about the Baoning Pill. How could she have lost it if she hadn’t been careful?
It would be great if we can find it in the end, but what if we can’t find it?
It is impossible to ask the queen for another pill, this thing is so precious.
Losing it is already a sin, and you still have to cover it up. How can you dare to ask for it again?
According to the mother-in-law's temperament, she will definitely not do anything to her. Now I just hope that the two mothers will have good luck and can both be safe.
By the time Xue Hengzhao came back from outside, Dr. Zhou had already arrived.
She was feeling Lan Ning's pulse, then walked outside and said to Mrs. Lan and others: "It is most dangerous for a mother to give birth. The fifth prince's concubine is suffering from excessive blood loss, so I can only prescribe some drugs to stop the bleeding.
We also have to consider the dosage and medication, for fear of harming the fetus. After all, the baby is still in the mother's womb, and it is impossible to use too much medication, and even a humble job cannot bear the risk."
Mrs. Lan and others naturally had no doubts about the imperial doctor and just kept saying good things.
At this time, two midwives came out from the inner room, covered with sweat. They held the table and said: "Madam, madam, our physical strength cannot support it anymore. Please replace us quickly!"
"How, how can this happen?" Old Mrs. Lan said, "It is a critical moment, how can you give up your choice?"
"Old madam, we really didn't mean it. We have been struggling for almost a day. We are also made of flesh and blood!
Besides, the princess's fetus is a bit big and the position of the fetus is not correct. She is afraid that the umbilical cord will be wrapped around the neck of the fetus and she dare not move hard..." The two midwives looked embarrassed.
"Go! Go out and find someone for me! Find a midwife!" The old lady was so anxious that she was sweating.
"I just heard from the servants in the mansion that there is a woman in the capital called Gui Pozi. She can perform acupuncture to guide the Qi and can cure any adverse pregnancy. Why not invite her over?" Xue Hengzhao said.
"No way, no way!" Someone immediately objected, it was the roommate of the Lan family's eldest grandma, "I know that woman has a weird temper and ugly appearance. Only poor families who can't afford a doctor will ask her to go there.
How could such a lowly person allow her to deliver a baby to a noble person?!"
Xue Hengzhao just said he went out to relieve himself, but it was just an excuse.
She knew that whether she was delivering Lan Ning's baby or diagnosing her pulse, they would definitely have reservations because they were afraid of taking responsibility.
Therefore, everyone is conservative and will never take risks.
Especially those who deliver babies, who are used to serving noble people, must have many worries when doing things, and once a person has worries, it is impossible to let go.
It's better than the midwives in the countryside who dare to take action when encountering difficult and dangerous situations.
She had already seen that these people did not seek merit but no fault, so she could not expect them to help Lan Ning break through the door of life and death.
"In emergencies, extraordinary measures should be taken." Xue Hengzhao said, "What if we continue like this and something happens?"
"Why are you so ignorant, girl?! Those are the prince's concubine and the emperor's grandson. If something goes wrong, your heads will fall off!" Aunt Qi wished she could cover Xue Hengzhao's mouth. p>
Did she bring a helper here? She clearly brought a troublemaker.
"But is it possible to just call that ghost woman here? If something happens because of her misconduct, who will bear the responsibility?!" Grandma Lan asked.
Lan Ning is the whole hope of their family. If something happens to her, the sky will fall.
"Everyone is afraid of taking responsibility, so everyone is afraid of hands and feet." Xue Hengzhao said, "I will ask the princess for instructions and see what she wants."
Xue Hengzhao went in to ask Lan Ning for instructions. Lan Ning was weak and weak, but he was not confused: "Go and ask for it! You can only wait for death if you waste it like this. Even if it is a dead horse being treated as a living horse doctor, there is still a chance."
"You are a lucky person and heavenly minister. Nothing will happen to you." Xue Hengzhao said, "I will go and fetch the old woman. Please be patient for a while."
