Yun He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the sky. It was just pitch black and even the moon was covered. It was impossible to tell what time it was.
Later, Liu Chun and other imperial doctors also came out of the delivery room one after another. Liu Chun saluted Yunxi and asked: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask your Majesty, how do you distinguish different types of blood?" As a doctor, Liu Chun would not answer this question.
I'm very curious and feel bad if I don't ask.
Yun He was stunned for a moment and said: "This..." He was thinking about whether it was appropriate for him to tell Liu Chun in person.
However, Liu Chun seemed to have misunderstood, and said, "Could it be that His Majesty used the blood of several palace maids at random when he couldn't think of it?"
At this time, Xiyao heard Liu Chun's words and came over and said, "Mr. Liu."
Liu Chun said hurriedly: "I have met the Queen."
Xiyao said: "It was the idea of the maid next to my sister."
"Because there is a possibility of hemorrhage during childbirth, my sister's maid is very concerned about blood transfusions."
"A palace maid came up with an idea and said to me: 'Since we are looking for people who can transfuse blood into others and the others are fine, then most of the time the blood of the person who received the blood transfusion will be fine when transfused into the person who received the blood transfusion.'"
"'You can take the blood of the imperial concubine and put it into the palace maids. If the palace maids are fine, then the blood will go into the imperial concubine and the queen will probably be fine.' Therefore, I followed his words and selected a number of maids, and finally selected these maids."
This is actually a simple reverse derivation process. Blood transfusion has just appeared now, and people haven't thought too much about it. In fact, as time goes by, smart people will come up with this method without Yunxi.
Liu Chun and the other imperial doctors present looked at each other. A method that sounded easy, why didn't they think of it? Liu Chun couldn't help but said: "This palace maid is really smart."
As for how many palace maids died because of this, they did not care. People are not equal in the first place. According to the theory of monarchs and ministers, it would not matter if Yunxi or Xiyao killed these palace maids for no reason.
Besides, there is a valid reason.
And no one in the court would accuse Yun Xi of being cruel. Any military commander may be injured on the battlefield, and with the help of blood transfusion, it is almost possible to save an extra life; as for civil servants, it is also possible to be injured and bleed.
It's easy to give advice now, but if your family members need blood transfusions in the future, will you lose or not? If you lose, just wait to be scolded; if you don't lose, your life will be lost.
Several imperial doctors discussed the matter of blood transfusion, then bowed and left Qianqing Palace.
At this time, Xiyi's trusted female officer Wuchun came to Yunxi with her newborn child in her arms. Xiyao also came over and said to Yunxi: "This is a little prince, please give me a name."
Yunxi thought for a moment and said to the newborn child: "My father hopes that you will expand the territory for the Ming Dynasty and redefine the boundaries. I will call you Zhu Wenqi." Qi means boundary.
The three princesses on the side had also come over. When Yun Zhi heard the name given by Yun Xi, she said: "What a good name!" Then she said to the newly born little prince: "You must shoulder your father's instructions in the future.
!”
The next day when Yunxi came back from the court, the four assistant officers and the people in Zhongshushe congratulated Yunxi for adding another prince. Yunxi also smiled in return. However, this kind of thing is not the birth of the eldest son, so everyone should congratulate him.
That's it, it's not worth going to war and writing a letter of congratulations.
Someone is paying attention to another matter. Zhang Wen, who usually never speaks out, said directly: "Your Majesty, I heard that Concubine Xue needed a blood transfusion yesterday and was saved by blood transfusion. Is this true?" Zhang Wen's tone was courteous but respectful.
asked very directly.
There was no reason why he didn't care. Several of his children were military generals, and his eldest son Zhang Shu was sent to Liaodong. He might get injured in a battle with the local Jurchen tribe one day. With blood transfusion, there would be room for recovery.
Yunxi was stunned when he heard Zhang Wen's words, and then thought in his mind: 'How could everyone inside and outside the palace know about it so quickly?'
In fact, it has not reached the level where everyone inside and outside the palace knows about it, but because this matter is too novel for the imperial doctors, everyone tells each other, so everyone in the imperial hospital knows about it.
It happened that Zhang Wen had been feeling unwell recently, so Yunxi assigned an imperial physician to see him every day. This morning, Zhang Wen felt unwell, so before going to court, he went to the imperial hospital to check his pulse and prescribe some medicine to the imperial physician on duty.
The imperial physician on duty casually told Zhang Wen about this matter in his excitement.
Others on the side heard Zhang Wen's words, and Guo Zhen said: "Concubine Xue also needed a blood transfusion yesterday?" Although Bao Zhao and others did not speak, their faces were full of curiosity.
Yunxi immediately spoke about the matter. However, Yunxi emphasized at the end that this reverse thinking method is not necessarily correct, so do not transfuse blood easily.
However, after listening to Yunxi's words, Zhang Wen still said with bright eyes: "I see, it can still be like this."
Other people also sighed one after another. Everyone sighed for a while before returning to their seats and starting to work.
In Xiyi's bedroom in Kunning Palace, a middle-aged woman who looked about forty years old, wearing low-key but luxurious clothes, and who looked somewhat similar to the Xiyao sisters was sitting on the edge of the bed, talking to Xiyao and Xiyi
What are you talking about.
She is the biological mother of Xue Xiyao, the empress of the Ming Dynasty, the real mother-in-law of Yunxi, and Wang Shi, the wife of Xue Ning.
Although today is not the first or fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, Xiyao sent someone to deliver a message to the Xue Mansion early in the morning, and the Wang family also hurriedly came to the palace.
Just listen to Mrs. Wang say: "I think you're fine, just a little weak. Why was it so scary yesterday? Did you get red?" Then she patted her chest and said with lingering fear: "I'm lucky you're fine."
Xiyi gave birth yesterday and underwent blood transfusion for rescue. At this time, she was very weak. Her little face was pale and pale. She huddled in the bed and said in a very soft voice: "Let mother worry about it."
Wang said: "It doesn't matter whether I bother or not. As long as you two are doing well in the palace, and the princes and princesses are also doing well."
Then he said: "A few days ago, I specially asked Master Guangyuan, who is fashionable in Wutai Mountain in the capital, to consecrate two strings of Buddhist beads and two statues of Manjushri Bodhisattva. Now I will use it to keep you safe."
She took out Buddhist beads and two statues of Manjushri Bodhisattva, and said, "Mother knows that you don't believe in Buddha, but you would rather believe in the existence of gods and Buddhas than in their non-existence."
"Even Your Majesty, didn't you treat the enlightened monks and enlightened masters from all over the Ming Dynasty with courtesy? You should seek psychological comfort. Or, for the sake of your mother, worship the Bodhisattva."
Xiyao couldn't refuse, so she could only accept it and said, "Don't worry, mother, we will definitely offer it to you."
Wang said: "Next time I enter the palace, I will be inspected. If there are no offerings, I will not comply."
Wang asked Wan Chun to bring Zhu Wenqi over again. Wang looked at the newly born little prince and said to Xiyi: "He is really good-looking. And he can eat and sleep. He will definitely be his brother's great help in the future."
Xiyi said: "That would be the best."
After sitting for a while, Xiyi could no longer hold on and was about to fall asleep. Wang and Xiyao also hurriedly came out of Xiyi's bedroom and came to Xiyao's bedroom.
As soon as Wang sat down, she asked: "What? Yesterday, Yi'er suffered a heavy hemorrhage and was saved by the blood transfusion method that was circulated in Beijing a while ago? Is this blood transfusion method really so effective?"
Xiyao said: "Of course. If there was no blood transfusion, my sister might have died of blood loss yesterday. Thinking about it now, if Your Majesty hadn't thought of the method of blood transfusion, I might have died yesterday."
Wang said: "Mom, I heard that there are various theories about this method of blood transfusion? Are there different types of blood?"
"Didn't you say that you can't tell the type of blood? Then how dare you use blood transfusion?"
Xiyao said: "Mother, first of all, there was no other way at that time. If we didn't have a blood transfusion, we could only wait to die."
"Second, before that, Wan Qiu came up with a way to identify the type of blood." Then she explained the method again.
Wang first said: "Wan Qiu is so smart? She didn't pay attention when she was at home. Where is she now? She came up with such a way to save Yi'er's life. I have to thank her."
Xiyao said: "The late autumn blood type is similar to that of my sister. I also had blood drawn yesterday and I am resting now. Besides, mother, what does it mean for you to go see her? My daughter has already rewarded her, and the mother will reward her family after returning home.
alright."
Wang said: "That's fine."
Then after saying a few words, Wang said: "Yao'er, mother has something to ask of you."
Xiyao said: "When mother speaks, why should she say 'beg'? If my daughter can do it, she will definitely do it."
Wang said: "You are a military general who has no eyesight with swords and guns! Your father was a military general and spent half of his life in the army. Although nothing happened in the end, I was always on tenterhooks every time your father went on an expedition."
"Now Ran'er has become a military general. If he can't keep it, he will be transferred to the border to fight."
"I was thinking that since our family already has a military commander of your generation, Yang'er should not be a military commander. Let him be a civil servant and live a peaceful life at home."
"Besides, it's safe to be both civil and military, even if you don't mention swords, guns, and eyesight."
Xiyao said: "My daughter does not disagree. There are many military generals in the Ming Dynasty, and your majesty does not insist on asking your younger brother to be a general. Why does he need to beg his daughter?"
Mrs. Wang said: "But your brother insists on being a military commander. What do you mean, a real man can be wrapped in horse leather or something like that? It scares me to hear that."
"When you are at home, he always listens to you. You help mother persuade Yang'er to stop thinking about being a general."
Xiyao thought for a moment and said: "Of course it is possible. Although it is not the first month of the year, my daughter will talk to His Majesty and Your Majesty will probably allow it."
"Waiting for my mother to come to the palace next time, my daughter will tell her mother when she can let Yang'er come to the palace to meet me."
