After doing all this, Wang Sizu seemed to realize that something was wrong.
He looked at the chopsticks in his hand and thought to himself, that's not right. It was the palace maid who insisted on doing this. How did it happen...
"Well!"
Empress Dowager Sun suddenly moved, and Wang Sizu immediately pulled out the chopsticks before he could think too much.
"Cough, cough!"
I saw Empress Dowager Sun's chest rising on the bed and she coughed violently.
Wang Sizu was overjoyed that it was successful!
At this time, he looked at the chopsticks in his hand again. This remedy worked really well!
"Ahem..."
Queen Mother Sun was still coughing. Wang Sizu quickly threw away the chopsticks, slapped Queen Mother Sun on the back hard, and then said: "Quickly, give the Queen Mother some water."
Immediately afterwards, he directed the other two imperial doctors: "You two, what are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and make some medicine!"
"Yes, yes, decoction!"
Only then did the two realize that there was no need to be buried with him...
Moreover, he also made great achievements.
However, it was the palace maid who suggested the use of folk remedies to treat the disease, and Wang Sizu who did it, which seemed to have nothing to do with them.
So hurry up and boil the medicine, you can get some credit.
Queen Mother Sun drank some water, coughed for a while, and spit out a large mouthful of thick phlegm.
"call……"
She let out a long breath and looked around blankly, as if she didn't know that she had just passed through the gate of hell.
"Mom, are you feeling better?"
Zhu Qizhen sat on the edge of the collapse, holding the Queen Mother Sun's hand, feeling that the temperature was slowly returning to her.
It was cold just now. Fortunately, Wan Zhen'er came up with this remedy. If it had been delayed for a while, I might have been unable to save it.
Wang Sizu stepped aside wisely and stood with his hands down.
"emperor……"
Queen Mother Sun gradually calmed her breathing and asked, "What's going on?"
"It's okay, it's okay..."
Only then did Zhu Qizhen feel relieved. Queen Mother Sun was already over fifty years old and her health had not been good. Today she almost died from a mouthful of old phlegm.
In the eyes of others, it is nothing more than a false alarm, but they do not think about the reason behind it.
The Queen Mother fell ill and was cured, that's all.
Zhu Qizhen didn't think so. The imperial hospital was a place where the emperor's concubines were treated. Even a little palace maid knew the folk remedies, but these imperial doctors didn't know it?
Is it true that I don’t know, or is it false that I don’t know?
Either they don’t bother to know, or they know it but don’t dare to use it.
After settling the Queen Mother Sun, Zhu Qizhen immediately turned down his face and summoned Wang Sizu alone to the imperial study.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty..."
"I don't want to hear nonsense!"
Just as Wang Sizu was about to compliment him a few words, he was immediately interrupted ruthlessly.
He stretched out his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeves, and said, "I am guilty!"
Zhu Qizhen said coldly: "What crime?"
"I, my servant... are not good at studying, and almost missed a major event, and will surely die!"
"When I ask you a question, you must answer it honestly and don't lie!"
"Old minister, I will tell you everything I know, and I will tell you everything!"
"Does your hospital really not know about the folk remedy Wan Zhen'er mentioned?"
Wang Sizu's expression changed drastically, and he quickly explained: "Folk remedies are spread in medical works that have not been seen in ancient and modern times. If they happen to be right for the disease, they can indeed have a certain therapeutic effect. However, if they are misused without dialectics... they will also cause...
There is a certain harm. The Empress Dowager is a rich woman, and I really don’t dare to use folk remedies to treat her. I hope the emperor will forgive me!"
This statement avoids talking about the benefits of folk remedies, but exaggerates the harm, which can be described as a wise move.
However, Zhu Qi ignored his tea and asked: "Please answer me first, does your hospital know about this kind of folk remedy?"
Wang Sizu's face was covered in cold sweat. How could he not know the key to the emperor's problem?
If you say you don't know, then well, if a little palace maid knows something, but Tangtang Taiyi Hospital doesn't know it, what do you mean?
However, if you know...
Then the problem is even more serious. Since you know it, why not use it?
After thinking about it, I decided to accept the lesser of the two evils...
"Old minister... I don't know!"
It's better to be a fool than to lose your head.
Zhu Qizhen's face became even more ugly and he asked again: "Really?"
"Old minister will die!"
Wang Sizu buried his head low, not daring to express his anger.
"Okay, I'll ask you again, why don't you know?"
"The veteran has little talent and little knowledge. That's why, that's why..."
"Is it because you have never seen this kind of folk remedies at all, or is it that you people, who claim to be from famous families and are in high positions, don't bother to learn folk methods?"
"Old minister, old minister..."
Wang Sizu didn't know how to answer, so he hesitated and was speechless for a long time.
Zhu Qizhen sighed, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go down!"
"Yes, I retire!"
Wang Sizu lowered his head, stepped slowly, and backed out.
It wasn't until he exited the imperial study that he took a long breath and raised his hand to caress his heart.
I was really scared to death just now!
It was obvious that the emperor was really angry.
If the Empress Dowager Sun hadn't survived this test without any risk, she might really have to be buried as an old man.
The little palace maid appeared at the wrong time. Otherwise, the hospital would have insisted that it couldn't be cured, and who would still be sick and die?
Doctors are not gods, so it is normal for them not to be able to cure the disease.
Emperor Renzong passed away only ten months after he ascended the throne, and no one from the Imperial Hospital was buried with him.
However, the maid told folk remedies in front of the emperor, which was embarrassing.
To be honest, he had heard of some prescriptions like this, but he just didn't take them seriously.
Being on duty at Tai Hospital is different from an ordinary medical clinic in the market. Here, no matter who has a headache, fever, or discomfort, he must be cautious and cautious.
Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger. There is no small matter in the Tian family, and no one dares to joke with his own head.
Imperial doctors usually read only a few medical books, and the prescriptions for treating diseases have been passed down from generation to generation. They never study or innovate, and naturally they are not willing to come into contact with so-called folk remedies.
Just because of two words - seek stability!
No matter you are the emperor or a concubine, if you are sick, I will give you the medicine according to the prescription. If you are cured, that is my ability. If you cannot be cured...there is nothing wrong with this prescription. It has been treated like this for thousands of years.
Yes, why is it not working for you?
If you encounter any difficult and complicated diseases, I'm sorry, we can't cure them!
Want me to take the plunge and try a new remedy?
What a joke!
You only get that little salary for a month, why are you working so hard?
If I use the prescription passed down from my ancestors and the cure fails, I can still quibble. However, if the prescription of my own creation cures the person to death, the nature will completely change.
Dismissal from office is a minor matter. If it is not done well, heads will be executed and homes will be confiscated, which will affect all the nine clans.
It is for this reason that Tai Hospital has been able to mix things up as it pleases over the years, and everyone knows it and understands it tacitly.
When Wang Sizu arrived at Taiyuan Hospital, the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he finally got over it again!
