Zhang Yanling's body was in extreme pain when it was hot and cold. In ancient times, infection was a terrible thing because there was no drug treatment. Folks used various methods, such as wrapping the wound with marl, plant ash, or cleaning it with potions.
Even though some medicines are available, they cannot really solve the problem of infection. Underdeveloped health conditions and science have destined the infection problem to be the most dangerous and fatal disease.
Doctor Li originally treated Zhang Yanling's wound properly, but Zhang Yanling did not realize the seriousness of the wound infection before. She felt better yesterday and thought everything was fine. So she ran around and went out on a hot day.
Sweat moistened the scar of the wound, and soon caused suppuration and infection of the wound. It can only be said that the discovery was quite timely. As soon as I had a fever in the middle of the night, I immediately asked Dr. Li to deal with it, cleaned the infected part of the wound, and removed the pus.
Sores. Otherwise, toxins will quickly invade the body and blood, causing pain.
But even so, the location of the suppurating wound is on the head, and the degree of danger can be imagined. When Zhang Yanling was in a coma, he didn't even know that he had escaped from the gate of hell. If he died like this, it would be the shortest life in history.
I am a time traveler. I came here to catch the autumn breeze and then I was finished again.
In the afternoon, Zhang Yanling finally woke up quietly. The moment he opened his eyes, he felt that his whole body was limp and weak, and his body was extremely sore. He didn't know what happened, but he felt that there was no energy in his body, his mouth was dry, and his throat was on fire.
.Seeing things with both eyes was blurry and could not see clearly at all. Only then did Zhang Yanling realize that her injury had recurred.
"Ugh! Ah!" Zhang Yanling groaned in pain, twisting her body but unable to get up.
"Ah! The Marquis is awake! The Marquis is awake!" the maid Xing'er who was guarding the bed cried out in surprise.
Tan Ruqing, who was sitting outside the window and slowly flipping through a book, also stood up when he heard this, with a happy face on his face.
"Little Marquis, don't move!" Tan Ruqing said.
Zhang Yanling stopped struggling. The pleasant female voice was like a clear spring pouring into his ears, and like a pair of gentle and comfortable hands caressing his heart, which made people feel extremely comfortable.
A faint aroma penetrated into his nostrils, which was extremely comfortable. Zhang Yanling knew that the woman was approaching. He raised his eyes and looked up. Although it was blurry, the general outline could still be distinguished. It was a tall figure in a well-dressed woman.
Although the face of the woman in the blue dress was blurry, Zhang Yanling felt that she must be very good-looking, but she didn't know who she was.
A pair of soft hands covered Zhang Yanling's forehead, and then the woman said softly: "Little Marquis, your wound is suppurating. You have a fever in the middle of the night. That's why. But I have already treated you. Are you
Your hands and feet are weak? Your eyes are blurry? Don't panic, it's due to blood loss. Ruqing used the bloodletting and detoxification method on you, so that's why. Are you very thirsty now? Don't panic.
Move, and someone will bring you water to drink. After drinking the water, you can sleep for a while, and you will feel much better when you wake up."
Zhang Yanling opened his eyes at a loss and didn't know what to say. In fact, he couldn't speak. The base of his tongue was soft at the moment. He just felt like he was in a dream. This woman's voice was gentle and beautiful, and the fragrance on her body was elegant and pleasant.
I feel extremely peaceful in my heart.
Ah Xing went to get water and fed it to Zhang Yanling little by little. After drinking half a bowl of water, Zhang Yanling felt much better. Her confused mind also became clearer. Zhang Yanling was glad that she had passed another level. Her own wounds
Infection is a fatal matter. This is the first time I heard about the bloodletting treatment that the woman used. No, wasn't it Dr. Li who treated me? A woman appeared from nowhere? That was not a woman from the mansion.
Their voices are different from this woman's. Who is that?
Zhang Yanling was thinking about these problems in his mind, but in the end his fatigue and powerlessness overcame everything. After drinking water, he quickly fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, it was already time to turn on the lamp. My body was still sore, but unlike before I didn't have the strength to even raise my hands to speak, and my eyes could see clearly.
"Ah." Zhang Yanling called out.
The maid Tao'er, who was sitting under the lamp with her eyes closed and resting, opened her eyes in surprise and shouted: "Master Hou is awake?"
Taoer hurried over and saw Zhang Yanling struggling to get up, so she helped Zhang Yanling sit up.
"Master Hou, I don't remember. Your wound was infected. Doctor Li couldn't do anything, so he asked Miss Tan Jia to treat you. Miss Tan Jia was really amazing. She gave you poisonous blood and gave you medicine.
How does Mr. Hou feel now?" Tao'er replied quickly.
"Miss Tan Jia?" Zhang Yanling thought of the gentle voice and tall and beautiful figure from before.
"Yes, her name is Tan Ruqing. She is really powerful. She spared half of Master Hou's blood and we were all scared to death, but she didn't panic at all," Tao'er said.
Zhang Yanling was also shocked. He had been drained of half a basin of blood. Did he kill a pig? But when he thought about it, it might just be a method of diagnosis and treatment. Of course he knew the horror of wound infection, and he was secretly glad in his heart.
"What about Miss Tan? I have to thank her." Zhang Yanling poked her head around the room.
"She was busy from morning to evening, taking care of Mr. Hou all day long. She was very tired. She went home not long ago. She said she would come back early tomorrow morning to check on Mr. Hou's injury," Tao'er said hurriedly.
Zhang Yanling groaned and leaned weakly on the pillow.
"Are you hungry, Mr. Hou? Miss Tan said that if Mr. Hou wakes up, you can have some soup. The white fungus, red dates and wolfberry soup has been simmering for an hour. Do you want to eat it?"
Zhang Yanling's stomach growled with hunger, so she nodded in agreement. Tao'er went out to fill the soup.
He felt much more comfortable. He could feel that the energy in his body was slowly recovering, and he felt much more at ease. Now he didn't dare to be brave anymore. A small cold could kill someone these days, so he couldn't take it seriously.
So he closed his eyes and rested on the bedside, thinking about the female doctor named Tan Ruqing who treated him. He was looking forward to seeing this woman tomorrow. Unknowingly, he fell asleep again.
…
Early morning is the most refreshing time of the day. Zhang Yanling got up very early and sat under the big tree in the yard to enjoy the cool breeze in the morning. The flowers and trees in the morning dew all around were fragrant, and the active birds were chirping everywhere.
It made Zhang Yanling feel very comfortable and happy.
At this moment, he saw Tan Ruqing coming. The girl in a green skirt was waving in the breeze. Her appearance made the flowers in the yard seem to lose their color, and the birds around them seemed to have lost their color.
He closed his mouth. Zhang Yanling stood up blankly, looking at the fairy-like girl walking in front of him with a slightly dull expression.
"Master Hou, Miss Tan is here." Xing'er, who was feeding birds on the porch, reminded her in a low voice.
Zhang Yanling woke up with a start, hurriedly raised her hands and saluted: "Miss Tan, you are polite. Thank you very much, Miss Tan, for saving your life."
Tan Ruqing's face was like water, Lianju returned the courtesy and said: "Master Zhang, there is no need to be polite, this is a matter for doctors."
Zhang Yanling raised his eyes and looked at Tan Ruqing's beautiful face, only to find that Tan Ruqing frowned.
"Why didn't Lord Zhang follow the doctor's advice and rest in his room? The early morning wind and dew would invade your body and it would be of no benefit to your body. I told you not to go out to see the wind yesterday. Didn't anyone tell you?"
Myolie was standing by and was about to explain when Zhang Yanling smiled and said, "I insisted on coming out. I felt uncomfortable lying on the bed, so I wanted to come out for some air."
Tan Ruqing said in a deep voice: "It is not only the doctor's job to treat diseases, but also requires the patient's conscious cooperation to get twice the result with half the effort. If Zhang Hou is like this, if the disease changes, whose fault is it?"
Zhang Yanling was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's my fault, there will be no next time, so I'm going into the house now."
Tan Ruqing snorted softly, and followed Zhang Yanling into the house with her maid Xiaozhu. She asked Zhang Yanling to sit down, and then began her examination. She checked the wound and changed the dressing, checked the color of the tongue and pulse, and then used a silver needle to puncture the blood to see the color of the blood.
Zhang Yanling let her control her like a puppet, thinking in his heart: This Miss Tan is very beautiful, but her attitude towards him is cold, and she doesn't know where she offended her.
After working for a while, Tan Ruqing cleaned her hands in the copper basin, ordered Xiaozhu to pack the medicine box and seemed to be leaving. Zhang Yanling hurriedly asked: "Miss Tan, how is my recovery from my injury?"
Tan Ruqing said: "The recovery is good. There are still some toxins in the blood that have not been resolved, but as the body produces blood on its own and the liver digests it, it will gradually recover. I will leave you a prescription, and you can just take the medicine according to the prescription. In addition, the most important thing is
The most important thing is that you need to rest and rest, and you should not be tired from running around for at least half a month, so that your body can fully recover. Please remember this, Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Yanling said with a smile: "I must obey your order. Miss Tan saved my life. I don't know how I can repay you."
Tan Ruqing glanced at Zhang Yanling lightly and said: "To be honest, I can't really save your life. If I don't come, Divine Doctor Li will deal with it for you in time, and you won't die. It's just..."
"I'm just going to become a useless person, right? That's not what life is like. In my opinion, the lady saved my life." Zhang Yanling said with a smile.
Tan Ruqing glanced at Zhang Yanling and said solemnly: "Whatever you think. Ruqing was just invited by Divine Doctor Li to come and treat the disease on my grandmother's behalf. It was for the sake of Divine Doctor Li."
Zhang Yanling felt a little strange. Tan Ruqing's attitude towards him was very cold. Yesterday when she was ill, her voice was extremely gentle, but today she was so cold. She asked herself that there was nothing rude about her, and she didn't know why.
Tan Ruqing asked Xing'er to bring a pen and paper, wrote the prescription on the table, put down the pen and said goodbye. Zhang Yanling felt unwilling, so she asked: "Miss Tan, your bloodletting therapy is very clever, how did you come up with it?"
Yes? I wish I had never heard of this kind of therapy. It is said that it saved half of my blood."
Tan Ruqing frowned and looked at Zhang Yanling and said, "What does Lord Zhang mean?"
Zhang Yanling smiled and said: "It's not interesting, I'm just asking. I wonder if this therapy has any basis? Is it passed down by Hua Tuo, or is it a method left by famous ancient doctors such as Bian Que and Zhang Zhongjing? It seems quite dangerous. You are not afraid of saving people.
If it doesn’t work, will it endanger people’s lives?”
Tan Ruqing was sullen in her heart. She could hear Zhang Yanling's words seeming to imply accountability.
