Chapter 293: Diagnosing the Second Prince
Su Chen came to the second prince's dormitory in full view of everyone, and everyone made way for him, stood aside, watched him quietly, and waited to see how he would diagnose and treat the prince's illness.
Concubine Jiang Yingxue, Huang Baoyi, Imperial Concubine Liuzhu, Xue Jiu, Lady Niang and other Li Yu's harem concubines and beauties, their eyes are also looking at Su Chen, it is a matter of the prince's safety, they are less favored, and they have no royal blood, so they usually love the two princes of Queen Zhou very much.
Su Chen walked to the bed, and the imperial doctors and palace maids on both sides stepped back, making enough space for him to come and check his pulse.
Medicine is benevolent, for patients, three points of medicine, seven points of heart medicine, careful dialectic, understanding the cause of the disease is very important.
But Su Chen has some understanding of this short-lived prince in the history books, and the history records that he was too frightened, and a few days later, he died with a whimper.
However, the history books did not carefully record how the imperial doctor treated and used the medicine, because he was only a small person in history.
Su Chen observed carefully, the second prince Li Zhongxuan seemed to be afraid of cold at this time, his body would tremble inadvertently, the corners of his mouth seemed to be in a nightmare, and he would occasionally speak ill nonsense that could not be articulated.
"Young Master Su, please take the pulse of His Royal Highness II." Cui Hu, an imperial physician, reminded.
Su Chen nodded slightly, and before he could reach out to check his pulse, the second prince Li Zhongxuan suddenly convulsed again, his limbs twitched, his eyes looked up, his teeth tightened, and his mouth foamed.
When everyone in the hall saw this scene, they exclaimed again, the concubines lost their faces, the palace maids cried anxiously, and the eunuchs also screamed.
Cui Hu hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and calm the spirit, hold down the second prince, don't let him convulse again, otherwise, it will be even more serious." ”
Su Chen observed coldly from the side, the symptoms of the second prince's illness, his eyes tightened, revealing a little suspicion.
Zhou Jiamin cried anxiously and said, "Brother Su, hurry up and think of a way, Your Second Highness is too scary like this." ”
Su Chen leaned over, grabbed Li Zhongxuan's little arm, felt the pulse and his shaking symptoms, checked his eyes and tongue, touched the liver temperature on his lower stomach, turned around and said, "Su has probably deduced the second prince's illness." ”
"Young Master Su, what kind of illness is this?"
"What is the illness of the Second Highness?"
After hearing this, several imperial doctors and chief medicine hurriedly stepped forward to surround Su Chen and inquire about his condition.
"Get out of the way!" Li Yu let out a loud shout, and when he saw several imperial doctors surrounding him, he immediately retreated.
Because Li Yu has a lot of opinions about these imperial doctors these days, the queen and the prince are helpless about their illness, if it weren't for his kind-hearted temper, if he was replaced by other tyrants, he would have been pulled out and beheaded.
The imperial doctors trembled and retreated when they heard this, and they also knew that the Li Guanjia was really angry, and they didn't wait to see them for the time being.
Li Yu walked forward, grabbed Su Chen's arm, and asked anxiously: "Su Chen, tell me, what the hell is going on, is there a way to cure the second prince's illness?" ”
Su Chen explained: "Back at the official's house, His Royal Highness was overly frightened, which induced epilepsy, that is, epilepsy. ”
"Epilepsy? Epilepsy? Li Yu's brows furrowed.
The imperial doctors used to deal with it according to fright, and prescribed a decoction to calm the nerves, nourish qi and nourish blood to treat, but later found that it was getting more and more serious, and after having epilepsy, they also prescribed two doses of medicine, but the effect was not good.
The earliest document of epilepsy in China is recorded as the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", in which "Su Wen - Treatise on Strange Diseases" clouds: "People who are born with epilepsy are born...... When this was in the mother's womb, the mother was shocked, and the qi went up but not down, and the essence and qi lived together, so the son became epileptic. ”
Before the Tang Dynasty, epilepsy and epilepsy were divided, such as "Adults are epilepsy, children are epilepsy", and it was not until the Northern Song Dynasty Wang Huaiyin and others wrote "Taiyu Shenghui Fang" that epilepsy and epilepsy were combined into one disease name.
However, "Qianjin Prescription" was lost because of the war, the south is not orthodox in the Central Plains after all, many orthodox books and prescriptions will be missing and insufficient when they reach Jiangnan, Li Tang is a small country after all, so the imperial doctor is weaker, and he does not have many prescriptions, so the medicine he practiced did not alleviate the condition of the second prince at all.
An old imperial doctor was Feng Yu of Shang Pharmacy, named Fu Dongsheng, and stepped forward to explain: "Master Su, the old man also judged that it was pediatric epilepsy at that time, and used medicine, but it didn't work. ”
Su Chen nodded slightly and said: "Before being frightened, the second prince already had the disease of wind and cold, and he was not completely cured, and he was suddenly overly frightened in the place of the Buddha Hall, and he had a seizure of real illness and deficiency, which led to the combination of epilepsy and pediatric pneumonia. ”
Fu Dongsheng asked an imperial doctor to take the prescription and handed it to Su Chen, who looked at it carefully and shook his head, this prescription for treating epilepsy is too mild, and it is still a remnant prescription, in later generations of Chinese medicine, it is basically a prescription that is not used in discarded.
"Can Su Gongzi see something wrong?" Fu Dongsheng's face changed slightly, and he was a little nervous in his heart, once he said that this bullshit was not, it was completely wrong, and it was estimated that it would anger the official family, and he would lose his official position.
Su Chen knew that the situation in the palace was complicated, who knew if these imperial doctors were close to each concubine behind them, or had old friends, and they couldn't offend to death, he replied calmly: "Fang Zi is basically symptomatic, it can treat childhood epilepsy, but unfortunately, the condition of His Royal Highness Second Highness is not a kind of epilepsy." In addition, the effect of this prescription is limited, and the effect of treating epilepsy will be very slow, but His Royal Highness is too young, and the two compound diseases have seizures, if you can't use strong medicine to get rid of scabies, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be effective. ”
When Fu Dongsheng and the other imperial doctors heard this, their faces eased a lot, and seeing that Su Chen did not completely put the responsibility on the palace medicine bureau and the imperial doctor's office, they avoided the important and trivialized, and helped to excuse him a few words, and immediately looked at him with some gratitude.
But Li Yu's face was still gloomy, although the imperial doctors pushed half of the condition, they couldn't treat it, it was useless after all, and at this time they could only pin their hopes on Su Chen.
Fortunately, Su Chen was able to diagnose the cause of the disease as soon as he arrived, pointed out that the two diseases were superimposed and compounded together, and saw that the drug was not effective enough, so there must be other ways.
Li Yu asked, "Su Chen, do you have a way to heal?" ”
"Yes, Brother Su, you save one and save the second Highness!" Zhou Jiamin stepped forward, grabbed Su Chen's arm, and pleaded with him without suspicion.
The rest of the concubines, looking at Su Chen's expressions were different, I didn't expect that this Jiangzuo Su Lang was really a famous person, and in such a short time, he could see the symptoms, which was admirable.
Su Chen took a deep breath and said, "Let me think of a way, give it a try, maybe it will be saved!" ”
