275 It is not healed for a long time

"Doctor Du, Lafayette asks you to give her the old man's vein. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" met Du Zhongjun, Li Lianying went straight to the point and explained her intentions.

"What, what's wrong with the Queen Mother?" Du Zhongjun was a little surprised.

"It's been a few days!" Li Lianying said.

"Then why didn't you come and ask us for a message earlier?" Du Zhongjun asked.

"Think about it, the emperor asks for a pulse every day, and the queen mother is sick again, and it won't make people panic?"

"It's not always a long-term solution, especially for the elderly!"

"Doctor Du, don't say more, go quickly, Lafayette is waiting!"

"Oh, yes, yes!" Du Zhongjun followed Li Lianying and walked out.

After taking Du Zhongjun's medicine, he finally stopped the diarrhea. His illness improved slightly, and the Empress Dowager Cixi was worried about Emperor Guangxu's illness again. On this day, the emperor and the ministers of military aircraft met, but due to physical exhaustion, they lay on top of the imperial case.

The Empress Dowager Cixi was taken aback, and the ministers of military aircraft were even more surprised. After a moment of silence, the Empress Dowager Cixi said:

"The emperor has been sick for so long and is getting worse and worse, if any of you can know any famous doctor, you might as well sponsor him."

replied: "The slave was seriously ill a few years ago, and he couldn't be cured for a long time, and later it was Qu Tinggui who was sponsored by Yuan Shikai who was optimistic. ”

"Qu Tinggui, how is this person?" As she spoke, the Empress Dowager Cixi set her eyes on Yuan Shikai.

Yuan Shikai replied: "Qu Tinggui has been in Beiyang for many years, he is a Western doctor, and has served as a medical officer and a dean. The old and the young in the courtier's family were all healed by him. ”

"Although the minister did not ask Qu Tinggui to see a doctor, the minister's family invited him to see a doctor, and I heard that the medical skills are excellent." Zhang Zhidong said on the side.

"Oh, Chinese medicine and Western medicine are the same, as long as they can cure the disease. Since you're all sponsoring him, you can let him come and see it. ”

"Please set a date for the Queen Mother!" Yi Liang said. "It's the third year of junior high school...... Then it's the ninth or tenth day of the first month. Empress Dowager Cixi said.

On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the Double Ninth Festival, the sky was light, and Qu Tinggui, a Western doctor, went from the east corner gate of the Summer Palace to the front of the Renshou Hall to stand by.

At about half past eight, Cixi summoned him. After meeting and saluting, Cixi asked, "I heard that the rules of Western medicine and Chinese medicine are different, what are the differences?" ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, according to the rules of Western medicine, the emperor has to be dressed widely, exposing his chest and back, listening and watching at the same time."

Cixi nodded slightly and said, "Oh, that's fine." ”

So, the eunuch untied the emperor's shirt and exposed his chest and back, Qu Tinggui wiped his hands with soju cotton, hung the stethoscope around his neck, and began to see a doctor. While listening, he asked Guangxu a question, pressing here for a while, and knocking there for a while. The Empress Dowager Cixi was inexplicable, so she asked, "Qu Tinggui, what are you doing here?" ”

"Try the emperor's physique." In fact, he was checking Guangxu's lungs to see if Emperor Guangxu had "tuberculosis" as rumored.

"Oh, it's to see the emperor's bones?" Cixi asked again.

"Yes!" Qu Tinggui replied, and then said, "Okay, please get dressed for the emperor." ”

"What disease?" The emperor was not dressed and asked first.

"The main thing is weakness." Based on his diagnosis, Emperor Guangxu must have something wrong with his lungs and kidneys, but in the face of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, Qu Tinggui could only prevaricate.

"How can I cure it?"

"This, you have to take it step by step, doesn't the emperor have a headache, that is, to treat the headache first, and then the emperor has a bad appetite, so he has to be appetizing first."

"You're saying it well." Emperor Guangxu nodded again and again.

After a pause, Qu Tinggui said to Emperor Guangxu: "Your Majesty, the minister has a request, I wonder if the emperor can agree?" ”

"What requirements? Say it."

"The minister wants to ask the emperor to reward some urine."

Hearing this, everyone in the room was surprised, and Qu Tinggui also felt embarrassed, so he hurriedly explained: "The minister wants to take it back for testing to see if there is a problem with the emperor's waist." ”

"Oh, that's fine!" The emperor was very generous.

Qu Tinggui packed up the instruments, retreated, and prescribed medicine, because Western medicine does not check the pulse, so there is no pulse. Moreover, Qu Tinggui's prescription was also full of foreign languages, so the eunuch who took the medicine was stumped, so he had to ask Qu Tinggui. Qu Tinggui told him:

"You have to take this prescription to a foreign hospital or a western pharmacy to dispense, how to use the medicine, the pharmacist will explain it to you."

"This is all foreign language, if they don't figure it out, what should they do, it's better for Dr. Qu to work hard by himself!"

"No, the pharmacist looks at it every day, it's all this kind of recipe, and it won't go wrong, don't worry!" Qu Tinggui said with certainty.

The eunuch saw that he couldn't do it, so he had to go by himself. Qu Tinggui received the emperor's reward and went back to the Beiyang Mansion.

It's already September, and in October, it's time for the Empress Dowager Cixi's longevity. It's time to get ready again, but the Empress Dowager Cixi's dysentery has recurred. When I was sick, I was annoyed, so I often complained, and on this day I summoned the Minister of Military Aircraft and sent it again.

"The emperor's illness is getting worse and worse, Shi Huan and Zhang Pengnian's medicine is useless, what kind of famous doctor is it? I don't think it's reliable. I haven't felt well for the past two days, but I don't dare to let them come and see. The Empress Dowager Cixi was still angry, and asked: "Zhang Zhidong, you usually have a disease, who do you ask to see?" ”

"The Chen's family is sick, and they have always invited Lu Yongbin, which is very effective!"

"Alright, then call him!"

So, he sent a eunuch to find Lu Yongbin. Pinyongbin's family was in Beijing, and he went home to live when he had free time, but he was invited away at this time and was not at home.

As soon as the family heard the call from the palace, they immediately sent a car to pick them up, passed through the door without entering, and went directly to the Summer Palace, where they diagnosed the queen mother's illness and prescribed medicine, so that they had a chance to breathe.

Lu is very good at treating dysentery with bin, only two payments, and then stopped, and after three payments, it is all good.

The Empress Dowager Cixi was very happy and praised him as "worthy of being a famous doctor". On the contrary, Emperor Guangxu's illness is getting worse day by day, day by day, like a chicken.

Just sitting there doing nothing, he was also dizzy and in a trance, and he should have been lying down to rest, but he still held on, not wanting to admit the reality that he was going to fall.

Seeing that he was terminally ill and blind, thinking that the birthday of the Empress Dowager Cixi was approaching, he couldn't help but exchange tears, saying:

"The queen mother's good days are coming, but I am getting sicker and sicker, and I can't salute her when the time comes, what can I do?"

However, the illness still did not get better because he had to pay a salute to the Queen Mother on the tenth day of October. Therefore, the Empress Dowager Cixi did not feel good in her heart, thinking about her own son, and thinking about the nominal son in front of her, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, and tears flowed from her eyes.

It's about to celebrate my birthday, I am already in my seventies, I can stay in the world for a few days, I can still have a few birthdays, I should be happy and happy to have a birthday, but my son is so sick that he can't stand up, isn't it sad?

Emperor Guangxu's illness is getting worse and worse, and the birthday of the Empress Dowager Cixi is getting closer and closer, and the teams that come to celebrate the birthday from all over the world also gather in Beijing from all directions, and even the Tibetan ******** lamas who have not come to worship for many years have prepared congratulatory gifts and brought horses into Beijing to enter the temple.

In the prosperous era of Qianjia, it was very common for ******** lamas to enter Beijing, but after the Daoguang, internal strife and external troubles continued to arise, the road was unpredictable, and the British continued to harass in India, and the distance between Tibet and the Qing government became farther and farther away.

When entering Beijing, according to the previous practice, the emperor should receive him in person.

Therefore, as soon as the **** entered Beijing, he first saw King Qing Yixuan, and the first thing he did was to ask the emperor to meet him, and King Qing could not refuse, so he set the day to see the emperor on the sixth day of October, and then came to find the Empress Dowager Cixi.

Seeing Cixi, King Qing did not speak, but Cixi spoke: "The emperor's illness has increased again!" Let him rest for a few days. ”

"Then the emperor is going to give food to the ****, the date has been set, can the emperor still go to Ziguang Pavilion at that time?"

"What day is it set?" Cixi asked.

"The sixth day of October." Yixuan thought about it for a while, and then said, "Why don't you change the day?" ”

"Change? When will it be changed? It can't be changed to after Wanshou Day! Before the tenth day of October, it is impossible for the emperor to stand up! ”

"This ......, **** came to Beijing this time, suffered a lot of grievances, and then couldn't get the emperor's reception, and the British were trying hard to win over them, I'm afraid it would be bad for the court!"

King Qing was worried.

"There's no way to do it, even if the date is changed, the emperor can't come to give the meal in person.

In this way, on the sixth day of October, let him have dinner in the Purple Light Pavilion, and you will accompany him. The tribute he brought, you let him enter on the ninth day of the first month, and the mourning family comforted and appeased him. ”

On the ninth day of October, in the Qinzheng Palace, the Empress Dowager Cixi presented a birthday gift, Cixi praised him very much, and comforted him with great kindness. The anger finally subsided, and on October 12, he took his servants back to Tibet.

On the 10th day of the first month of October, the senior officials of the DPRK and the local governors who came to celebrate their birthdays all got up early, dressed up, and came to Xiyuan when the "rooster cries and the clouds rise" to celebrate the birthday of the mother of the country.

Today is the auspicious day of Lafayette's longevity, and of course Li Lianying has already gotten up to help the Empress Dowager Cixi dress, wash, and most importantly, comb her hair. Because today Galeries Lafayette is to be worshiped by hundreds of officials, this is the most important.

It took nearly an hour for Lafayette to nod, affirming Li Lianying's labor.

The Empress Dowager Cixi stood up from the dresser and asked Li Lianying, who was holding him, "How is the emperor's illness?" Will he be able to salute today? ”

"Lafayette, the emperor can't get up for several days!"

The Empress Dowager Cixi didn't speak, and she also thought about the current internal and external troubles, the emperor's illness, and she really couldn't let go. She raised her head and said to Li Lianying: "The emperor will be exempted from leading hundreds of officials to salute!" ”

The emperor did not salute the Queen Mother. Although there were hundreds of officials worshipping, they still couldn't erase the unhappiness in the heart of the Empress Dowager Cixi. Li Lianying thought of ways to make her happy, watching tributes and big dramas, but the Empress Dowager Cixi had no intention and broke up unhappily. (To be continued.) )
