CHAPTER XXXIV
Liu Zong's face was pale and blue, he bit his lower lip tightly, and curled up on the bed with his stomach covered, he couldn't move.
There was a bowl on the table next to him that was only left with soup residue, Liu Zong had been in the position of the chief eunuch for many years, and there was no merit and hard work, Fu Chen guessed that someone should have come to the Tai Hospital, if it wasn't helpless, he wouldn't let him wait here to die slowly.
But judging from the deserted courtyard now, after the verdict that Liu Zong is about to die, those who usually stammer and flatter people can't wait to stay away from Liu Zong, and people go to tea and cool, which is inevitably embarrassing. Fu Chen was very glad that before he went to the prison bar, he deliberately went to the Xiatai Hospital to call Liang Chengwen, although it was only the judgment of the left court of the third grade, not a real imperial doctor, but medical skills do not represent grades, although Liang Chengwen is young, his medical skills are quite exquisite.
Liu Zong was so painful that he couldn't speak, and he couldn't hear Fu Chen's call.
The stench was a mixture of excrement on the bed and vomit on the ground, Fu Chen quickly swept it with a broom, came to the side of the bed and touched his forehead.
It's hot, it's feverish!
Fu Chen came over, first, he didn't want Liu Zong to even have a person to collect the corpse after he left, although they didn't get along for a long time, Liu Zong took care of him very much, and this promotion was thanks to him and Gonggong Hai; The second is that a person who feels that he was fine before, how can he say that he is gone, and he should always know what kind of disease he has.
A psychiatrist is not strictly a doctor, but he graduated from a regular medical school, and he will take some big classes and all departments together, and he knows a little about the basic knowledge of medicine, and some surgical sites and dissection rooms also need to be observed on site.
According to Liu Zong's situation, he roughly analyzed several possible illnesses and filtered them in his heart.
When waiting for Liang Chengwen to come over, Fu Chen didn't think the other party was dirty, cleaned up the excrement under the bed, and looked at the door again, but he didn't see anyone coming to visit, nor did he see his master, who was also Liu Zong's apprentice Mu Ruida. may be able to understand that people go to high places, Liu Zong is already in the twilight of the West Mountain here, and Li Xiangying is thriving now, coming to see Liu Zong is tantamount to making Li Xiangying unhappy, who will risk this danger to come over and block his future.
It's just one thing to understand, and his heart can't help but be a little cold, Fu Chen has a feeling of sadness that the rabbit is dead and the fox is dead, if he gets sick or dies in the future, will he also end up in a situation where no one comes to collect the body.
When Fu Chen was almost cleaned up, Liang Chengwen rushed over.
Liang Chengwen received Shao Huachi's secret order that Fu Chen was his own person, and if necessary, he could consult Fu Chen alone.
He guessed that Fu Chen was Shao Huachi's cronies, and he didn't dare to slack off at all. After getting ready, he hurried over, and found that Liu Zong, who had been diagnosed as dying soon, was lying on the bed, and didn't say anything, and stepped forward to check the pulse.
Seeing Liang Chengwen shaking his head, Fu Chen asked, "Liang Yuan judged, what kind of disease did Liu Ye have?" β
"It's a carbuncle, but it's acute, a type of colic." Liang Chengwen picked up the medicine he drank next to him again, and smelled the ingredients inside, "I use Dachengqi soup, and I will prescribe this medicine if I have an intestinal carbuncle, if it is useless, then there will be no way to return to heaven." β
Dachengqi soup has been used in traditional Chinese medicine until now.
Carbuncle is also called appendicitis in modern times. It is also recorded in ancient medical techniques that hot intestines, uncontrolled diet, etc. may be induced, and now Liu Zong has a high fever, and acupuncture and decoction are useless. This phenomenon indicates that perforation or peritonitis is complicated, that is, suppuration, which must be performed as much as possible. The general onset time is 12 to 48 hours, Fu Chen felt that Liu Zong's face was very bad from the beginning of the palace selection, it should not have been acute appendicitis at that time, from Liu Zong's fall to the present, less than twelve hours have passed, maybe, there is still help!
Acute appendicitis is a common disease, which is considered a minor operation in modern times, but it is different in ancient times, and almost all people who get it are dead, which is a terminal disease.
Surgery! He can't, he can only dictate the operation process, but now there is no anesthetic, no scalpel, no equipment, only a doctor who can't operate on him.
"Liang Yuan judged, you can disembowel your belly." In fact, in the history of the original world, Hua Tuo has been treated by surgery, Chinese medicine is broad and profound, but in ancient times when the technology was backward, it was easy to get infected after surgery, and there were no antibiotics or aspirin here, and it was lost unconsciously.
Since Hua Tuo had it at that time, then maybe there was one in the history of this world.
After Fu Chen finished speaking, Liang Chengwen looked at the little eunuch in surprise, pondered for a long time, and answered Fu Chen's question, "It is true, I have seen it in ancient books, but it has long been lost, do you want to disembowel Liu Zong?" β
For Fu Chen's boldness, Liang Chengwen was also amazed.
The Jin Dynasty paid attention to the parents of the body, which is also the fundamental reason why the open surgery has not been inherited.
"I know some, I said, you do it, would you like to give it a try?"
Liang Chengwen saw that there was no one in private, and Fu Chen was the person of the Seventh Prince, so he did not refuse immediately. He was already very curious about the art of disemboweling when he was studying medical books in his early years, but he didn't have the opportunity to realize it, and now that there are ready-made ones, he did give it a try.
From the last time in Chonghua Palace, when Liang Chengwen was thrown with blood on his face by the Seventh Prince, and he was still in the mood to ridicule the ink painting, Fu Chen felt that this imperial doctor was not pedantic, so he tried to put forward this opinion, and if the other party refused, he would not force it.
Finding that Liang Chengwen's face was a little moved, Fu Chen asked, "Do you have a way to wake up Liu Ye?" Surgery is not a trivial matter, and you may die at any time. β
In modern times, there is also a family surgery consent form, and of course, in ancient times, it was not possible to just think about it.
"I ...... This life is meant to be gone, if you want to try, try it! Anyway, left and right...... It's nothing but a dead word. β
When the two turned around, they saw Liu Zong's miserable white face and said to them.
He woke up in pain, and when he knew he had a carbuncle, he knew he was finished.
Now I hear that there is still a glimmer of hope for healing, of course I am willing to bet, horizontal and vertical are like this, and he is indifferent to live to this age.
After preparing knives, scissors, needles, threads and other tools, Fu Chen saw that Liang Chengwen was going to do it directly, so he stopped: "Don't you need hemp boiling?"
"What is hemp boiling?" Liang Chengwen had never heard of this prescription.
Anesthesia is not a patent of Western medicine, as early as the Hua Tuo period, it has been invented similar to the anesthetic of the storage zΓ i, it is called Ma boiling powder, and it is very safe and effective, there are no side effects, and can paralyze the whole body, its formula has two kinds of legends, Fu Chen said that one of the more widely spread.
After Liang Chengwen listened, his whole person trembled with excitement, and he grabbed Fu Chen excitedly, "If this hemp boiling powder really has the effect you said, what a good thing it will be for the country and the people!! β
Liang Chengwen once served in the army, sometimes it is a good thing to die on the battlefield, the worst thing is to be disabled, broken hands and feet, when treating those soldiers, watching them suffer but helpless, that scream is still fresh in Liang Chengwen's memory.
He hugged Fu Chen fiercely, and he didn't know how to express his feelings excitedly, "Fu Chen, I thank you for the people and soldiers of the Jin Dynasty!" Can this prescription be circulated? β
"Of course, but you can't mention the minions' names." Fu Chen had no reason not to agree, it was just a prescription for him, but it could be a life for others. And as a eunuch, it is inconvenient for him to spread these things, and Liang Chengwen's identity is just right.
"How can this work?" Liang Chengwen disagreed.
He has an obsession in his heart that others can't understand, he was born in a medical family, invaded medical skills for many years, since he was a child, he has walked through many places in the Jin Dynasty with his grandfather, and has seen many suffering people, he is committed to letting himself travel all over the world and save the people, but his father's accidental death made him abandon the idea of traveling, and instead devoted himself to the hospital.
His father used to be a doctor in the Tai Hospital, and he was also the one who forced toxins for the Seven Princes, which is also the reason why he intersected with the Seven Princes.
Later, the mother of Emperor Jin Cheng, and now the woman who was posthumously named the concubine of Emperor Zhenyi was terminally ill, and all the doctors in the hospital were at a loss, and Emperor Jin Cheng said at the time: "If you can't cure the concubine, you will ask all of them!" β
On the day of the death of the imperial concubine, Emperor Jin Cheng beheaded all the imperial doctors in a fit of anger to comfort the imperial concubine's spirit in the sky.
Since then, Liang Chengwen has entered the palace.
"You just said it was a coincidence." Fu Chen said that his current identity can't do anything out of the ordinary, and his reputation is a burden.
"Fu Chen, why did you enter the palace as a eunuch, is there anything unspeakable?" With Fu Chen's talent, no matter how you look at it, it looks like it came from a hidden family. What Fu Chen said, even what he, a medical heir, was amazed at, how could it be just a little eunuch!
Fu Chen can't deny it at this time, and he doesn't want to explain and complicate this matter, "It's hard to say." β
Liang Chengwen nodded understandingly, he himself entered the palace with a purpose. Everyone who has the ability in this palace has secrets, and it is not enough for outsiders.
"Let's hurry up and treat, Liu Ye can't delay it."
Liang Chengwen went to the medicinal herb room to catch the medicinal materials in Fu Chen's mouth, made a decoction and fed Liu Zong to drink.
Before the anesthesia took effect, Liu Zong suddenly said: "Xiaofu, I remember your kindness. β
He still had excrement sticking to his body just now, and the stench was incomparable, but now it was clean, and he knew that it was all done by Fu Chen.
When he first met, he always felt that Fu Chen was sleek and had means, but his mind was too deep, and he could only see people's hearts clearly when he was in trouble, and this child had a mirror in his heart, reflecting the ghosts and monsters of this world, it was a pity to be a eunuch!
"What did Liu Ye say, this small method may speed up your ......"
"My Lao Liu has been in this palace for decades, I haven't seen anything, and when it comes to dying, only you are willing to come and see me, and with this intention, even if you go to hell to see the king of Yama, you can also be proud." The corners of Liu Zong's eyes were a little moist, and he didn't need Fu Chen anymore, "If I can still wake up, little Fu, would you like to be my godson?" β
Eunuchs have the custom of recognizing their master as their godfather, which is generally divided into two situations, one is like Li Xiangying, who recognized a lot of godsons, that is, a bunch of slaves who served him, and the other is Liu Zong, who really regarded his godson as his own child, and would not recognize it casually.
"Godfather." Fu Chen laughed and shouted directly. If this was really the last time they saw each other alive, then he didn't want to leave the old man with regrets.
"Whoa!" Liu Zong responded cordially, smiling so much that his eyes couldn't see it, he wanted to touch Fu Chen, his body had begun to be paralyzed, but his heart was warm.
Liu Zong slowly closed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, not desolate, but happy.
His mind was still clear, but he was not in good spirits, and he had no strength.
This was the first time Liang Chengwen had used the knife, and he was very nervous, and he listened carefully to what Fu Chen said throughout the whole process.
"After anesthesia, the second step is to find the incision." Fu Chen pointed to the most painful place in Liu Zong's abdomen just now, "From here, remember, it should be cut diagonally, along the texture of the skin, yes, that's it." β
Seeing the blood, Liang Chengwen still shook his hand.
"Steady, don't worry! Only if you are stable, we can hope for success! Fu Chen's voice exudes the power to calm people's hearts.
Liang Chengwen took a deep breath, his expression was no better than Liu Zong, he was extra careful in every step, and listened to what Fu Chen said more carefully.
Fu Chen kept reassuring him, "Very good, very well done!" β
"Don't rush, cut slowly!"
"This incision method will not cause heavy bleeding and will minimize the damage to the body."
He had to remove words like arteries, blood vessels, nerves, and replace them with those suitable for antiquity.
The wound was cut open, revealing the bloody spleen inside.
Fu Chen held the tense Liang Chengwen with one hand and supported him to continue, "From now on, find the place where the carbuncle is." β
By this time, the blood had already flowed all over the bed, and it was blood-red everywhere. But they can't stop, they have to do their best to find the appendix, this process is not easy, the appendix is to rummage in the intestines, Fu Chen's mind is highly concentrated, trying to recall the operation scene he has seen, trying to restore the details. He wiped a handful of sweat from the heat so that he wouldn't fall into the wound.
Each step seemed cautious and focused, and by the time the thread was tied to the tail of the appendix and the purulent part was cut off, both men were nearly collapsed.
Under Fu Chen's command, the purse was sutured, and the rest of the cecum was stuffed into the intestinal wall again.
Liang Chengwen is also getting more and more comfortable.
Because of the effect of numbness boiling, Liu Zong did not move or shout during the whole process, which greatly reduced the burden of surgery.
If you struggle with severe pain, then there is little chance of success for the surgery.
"What's next?" Seeing that Fu Chen was already packing up his utensils, Liang Chengwen breathed a sigh of relief, he was really disemboweled! This must be the first case of the Great Jin Dynasty!
"The next twelve hours, see if it will deteriorate, Liang Yuanju, can you stay here and guard? I also have to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and I have some errands. "Although there is a lot of blood left, under normal circumstances, as long as it does not move to the major arteries, it is not easy to die, and Fu Chen is more worried about whether the wound will be infected later.
This can only rely on Liu Zong's luck, and if he doesn't infect anyone, he can save it. Zhou Yu during the Three Kingdoms was not killed by Zhuge Liang as rumored by later generations, as a wise man, his stomach would not be so small, he died of an arrow wound that caused a bacterial infection, and such a way of death was very common in ancient times.
"Okay, I'll take care of it here, you go on a business trip first, and I'll come back and wait with me for Liu Zong to wake up." Liang Chengwen also wants to determine whether it is success or failure, and today is too meaningful for him.
For the sake of the lives of the two, he can't spread the art of disemboweling, but he can save people in private.
Just as Fu Chen was about to leave, Concubine De sent Tai Ming over with several food boxes.
Some words came over, saying that Fu Chen had been working under Liu Zong, and Concubine De agreed to let Fu Chen give him a final snack.
She was very considerate and sent a meal, and also rewarded a lot of medicinal materials in her private library, she was conveying a meaning, she was inconvenient to come forward, but I hoped that Fu Chen could help her share to send Liu Zong together. Liang Chengwen looked at this meal comparable to the imperial kitchen in amazement, "Is there still a shortage of imperial doctors in Concubine De's Fuxi Palace, this treatment is too good!" β
Where is there a palace concubine who is so good to her subordinates, not only does she not condemn herself if she doesn't go to the top to go on a bad trip, but she also sends food and food.
"Concubine De Niangniang is very good to her subordinates." Fu Chen said as he touched Liu Zong's forehead, and the heat gradually decreased.
"Is there really such a concubine in this harem?" After Liang Chengwen was sentenced by the upper court, he saw a lot of dirty things about the concubines, most of which were not as good as the outside, and all of them were femme fatales who hid poison.
Li Xiangying sent someone to urge him a few times, and Fu Chen left after lunch.
It is impossible not to have a person who sends lychees, but in Li Xiangying's opinion, Fu Chen is the most "suitable".
- Jin. River. Alone. Homeββ
On the way, Fu Chen turned a corner and walked in the direction of Yeting Lake.
The place he walked into was one of the three palaces that had been in charge of cleaning, and inside a little gray-robed eunuch was sweeping the floor with a broom.
Fu Chen coughed lightly, and the little eunuch turned his head suddenly.
Yao Xiaoguang laughed, after he saw Fu Chen in the prison yard before, he made a strange expression, which was lip syncing.
It is said that it is the direction of the three empty halls of Yeting Lake.
In fact, outside the Fuxi Palace that day, Fu Chen always thought that Yao Xiaoguang was coming to beg him at first, until finally Yao Xiaoguang secretly handed him a note, and he didn't know the truth until he went back to open it.
He played it for Li Xiangying in the shadows.
Li Xiangying has always been thinking about getting rid of the people in Concubine De's palace, except for Fu Chen, several palace people in Fuxi Palace have been eliminated by Concubine Qi and Li Xiangying for various reasons, Concubine De is not so easy to fool, but the emperor was fortunate last time, he hinted at Concubine De vaguely and let Concubine Qi be a little bit of concubine.
It probably means that your brother has made the brother of the family into a eunuch, and this thing is that your family is sorry for others. Qi Guifei will take the people in your palace out of anger at most, since you are a concubine, you must have a large number of adults, let her be, the most important thing in this palace is harmony, you as one of the examples of the harem, you should lead by example.
With such a succession, Concubine De could only endure it for the time being, thinking of an opportunity to rectify Concubine Qi.
It's just that it hasn't been rectified yet, and people have already knocked on the door.
Yao Xiaoguang was promised by Fang to find an opportunity to reduce his guilt because of Fu Chen's relationship, and Li Xiangying's people also rushed over at that time, and Yao Xiaoguang hid too obviously at the beginning, it was a big tree, and it was difficult to escape the blame, but Li Xiangying blamed Fu Chen for this. said that Fu Chen deliberately found an opportunity to harm Yao Xiaoguang, if Yao Xiaoguang was a person from the palace who had just entered the palace, and he didn't understand the twists and turns, of course he would be fooled and regard Fu Chen as a mortal enemy.
But Li Xiangying didn't expect that Yao Xiaoguang had been staying in the courtyard of the prison yard since he entered the palace, sleeping on Fu Chen's bed, and living next to Fu Chen's brother, all he instilled in him every day was how good Fu Chen was, how righteous enough, this kind of thing happened, Yao Xiaoguang misunderstood at the beginning, but he liked the people in the prison very much, as long as he said it, the people in the prison would explain to him the meaning of Fu Chen's doing.
The three stinkers beat Zhuge Liang, and the people in the prison let him do the tricks.
simply pretended to be Li Xiangying's person and acted in a scene.
The connection between people is sometimes inadvertently generated, and every little person who may not be insignificant in the eyes of others may become an axe that pries open the giant wheel. There is a cause to have an effect, because Fu Chen's sincere dedication has now been rewarded.
He may not have expected the people in the prison to help him anything, but the three-year relationship is real, for Fu Chen, it is not that everything must be done with a purpose, he is a human being, he has feelings, and if he has feelings, he must have sincerity.
Especially after the incident of Chen Zuoren and Wang Fugui, the people in this courtyard are unprecedentedly united, they are twisted into a group and want to live, and this belief supports everyone.
They said that they would not drag Fu Chen back, but they were also sincere.
Although Yao Xiaoguang had only been in the courtyard for a while, he had been gradually assimilated.
"Brother Fu!" Yao Xiaoguang looked at Ji Ke like that and threw himself into Fu Chen's arms.
Fu Chen touched the child's soft head. "Blame me for being ruthless?"
Yao Xiaoguang was a little embarrassed and admitted: "At first, there was, but now it won't." Brother Zhao said to them, if you don't be cruel to me now, it won't be so easy to expose when others treat me in the future. β
"It's just, it's hard for you."
"Let's not be bitter, Brother Zhao said, that Li Ye is not good, he killed many people in our prison fence courtyard and the West Twelve Institutes, he sent several eunuchs in the courtyard to Qi Guifei, and I never saw them come back alive." Yao Xiaoguang's eyes sparkled, "The people in our courtyard are all real men!" We don't betray! β
"They, I really don't know what mess they taught you, we're not men anymore!" Fu Chen laughed.
"But Brother Zhao said, the body is not, the heart is!" Yao Xiaoguang twisted around, learning from Ji Ke's coquettish appearance to Fu Chen, he had always been very envious of Ji Ke's unwavering appearance towards Fu Chen.
"Okay, I can't talk about you."
"Brother Fu, you have to be careful, a few more died in the courtyard of the Qi concubines, I heard Li Ye say that recently the envoys of the Jisang Kingdom brought dogs from the Western Regions, and the dogs ate human flesh, and those dead people were all eaten by them, and Li Ye asked you to send lychees, which will definitely harm you!" Don't go! Yao Xiaoguang trembled, he tried to hold back his fear, and hurried to say what he was going to say to Fu Chen.
"Don't worry, I know it." Touching the child's head, Fu Chen's mood was a little heavy, the child's eyes were still clear when he first came in, and he changed a little quickly, "Brother Fu will teach you another sentence, when you can't hide in this palace, don't hide, because if you dodge, the other party will become even worse." β.
Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Li Xiangying was surrounded by a lot of flattering little eunuchs, and Fu Chen saw it when he came in, they were all Liu Zong's former team.
There were still some people who thought about Liu Zong, but they didn't go to see Liu Zong, but they didn't please Li Xiangying, and Fu Chen silently wrote down these people.
"Master Li, after you came to our Internal Affairs Mansion, this place has become splendid!"
"You are better than that Liu Zong, I don't know how much, you see that even the Queen Mother appreciates you very much, and the little one can follow you, it is really a blessing for several generations to cultivate."
"Master Li......"
Li Xiangying listened to these words with a smile in her mouth, "Okay." Our family is just a temporary Liu Ye, so let's say less. β
Having said that, he did not stop the men.
In his opinion, this position is already in the bag, Liu Zong's old goods, God really has the eyes to accept him!
When he masters the Internal Affairs Office, he will be able to replace Liu Zong and become one of the six chief governors!
"Fu Chen, are you back?" Li Xiangying saw Fu Chen coming in from outside the door, and a certain light burst out of his eyes, "How is Ye Xin?" β
"He asked the little one to thank Li Ye for his gift."
"Then Master Liu, are you okay?" Li Xiangying's people saw Fu Chen when they passed by in the prison courtyard, and they immediately came to report back.
"I'm afraid it won't work." Fu Chen looked sad.
"Oh, you really miss the old love, if Liu Zong knows under the spring, he will also be moved by your friendship." As soon as Li Xiangying's words came out, he immediately asked Fu Chen to stand on the opposite side of all the eunuchs and isolated him, "By the way, the lychee has been carried over, you go and assign it to the palaces, you all go and help the little Fu Gonggong, he still can't recognize the way." β
This means that Fu Chen is too blind, and he is still stubborn, he is not good at pleasing him, and he is still engaging in yang and yin violations, it is time to teach a lesson, and if he is still disobedient after a lesson, then get rid of it, Fu Chen's position will be replaced by others, and the other eunuchs will understand, which of them does not want to be promoted, Fu Chen is now a third-grade eunuch, this position is too tempting.
"Little Command." The unkind gaze that fell on Fu Chen did not make him panic.
