Chapter 22 Doctor Lu
Xin Yan was taken aback by Governor Chen's resolute appearance, this action is indeed very strong.
Ning Yuanhou was very interested in the "mask" she made, picked up one of them and compared it, and praised it repeatedly: "This is how these two ropes are hung behind the ears?" It's really unusual. How did you come up with the idea? I didn't expect you to be a woman with such a ability! β
Ning Yuanhou's wide-eyed look was really a little funny.
Thinking so, Xin Yan also laughed out loud.
The corners of his eyes are crooked, and the cold aura on his body has been dispelled a lot, with the vitality of this age.
"If you are interested, I will slowly talk to you when I have time in the future."
Ning Yuanhou's old face was red, and he really lost his demeanor in asking a little girl, after getting along just now, he also regarded her as a junior, so naturally he didn't hold an official stand, but at this time, when he thought about it, they still had something to do, and now was indeed not a good time to speak.
As they spoke, they had come to a house, blue bricks and stones, and the lobby was well organized, not as messy and stinking as they had seen when they first entered the city.
There were all kinds of shelves in the lobby, people lying horizontally and vertically, and the smell of medicine was everywhere, Xin Yan couldn't help frowning.
Just as she was observing the lobby, Ning Yuanhou took half a step back and met Song Ming's gaze, while the latter responded to him quietly, and then Ning Yuanhou refocused his attention on the girl in front of him like no one else.
The people in the hall noticed that Ning Yuanhou and his entourage, and the imperial doctors who were treating him saluted him from afar, and then concentrated on treating the patients in front of them.
Among them, many people also noticed these strangely dressed people, their faces were covered with cloths, and their shapes were strange, but they didn't look like ordinary people, could it be that someone was sent over again?
It's just that these people won't be too young?
Ning Yuanhou stood still not far away, waved his hand to a person, and said, "This is Medical Officer Lu, if you have any questions, you can ask him directly." β
Originally, Xin Yan proposed to go and see the patient by herself, but Ning Yuanhou saw her thin body, so he still found a familiar person to introduce her. After all, she was followed by such a master.
Although the mood was not so excited on the way just now, it also calmed down. Also, how could he really think that this woman really had a cure for the plague.
Xin Yan looked at the medical officer, and from the moment she first came in, she paid attention to the man in the corner.
He was wearing a doctor's robe, with a gentle expression towards the patient, without a little impatience, he would carefully inquire about the patient's physical condition, comfort the patient, and the diagnosis and treatment techniques were skillful, better than most of the doctors present, she originally thought that he would be the doctor of the hospital, but she didn't expect it to be just a medical officer.
The medical officer, different from the Tai Yi, has a relationship like that between a teacher and a student, a teacher-student relationship, and is basically an apprentice of the Tai Yi, who usually takes care of the medicinal materials and helps the Tai Yi of the Tai Hospital to take care of trivial matters.
His status, like that of a scholar, is not high.
However, there is an entrance examination every year, regardless of age, as long as the ability is outstanding, you can sign up, of course, the medical officers in the hospital are the "frequent visitors" in this admissions examination. They are eligible for preferential admission, which is one of the reasons why many poor families are desperately trying to send their children there.
Medical Officer Lu has clear eyebrows, a handsome nose, full lips, a melon seed face, and a thin body, looking like a weak scholar, not like a doctor.
"The girl is polite."
As soon as these words came out, Xin Yan really felt that his vision was good, and this was the scholar Xiucai in the book.
Throwing off those messy thoughts, Xin Yan went straight to the point: "The medical officer is polite, let's find a quiet place, I want to know the patient's situation, no matter how big or small, the clearer the better." β
Doctor Lu led them to an empty room, which was located in the backyard of the lobby, which was rarely occupied and secluded.
Although few people come, this house can be called clean.
"This is a place where some medicinal herbs are usually stored, and I sometimes come over to take care of it, so it's also clean, girl, please take a seat."
This Lu medical officer is a person who loves cleanliness, and even after treating a patient, he will take the time to clean his hands, which is rare among medical officers, and doctors should pay more attention to cleanliness.
Xin Yan sat down directly without refusing, and Song Ming stepped forward to sit on her left, because there was a little sundries on the chair on Xin Yan's right, and Medical Officer Lu could only sit directly opposite Xin Yande.
Tianquan was speechless for such a small action of the master, when did the master become so naΓ―ve!?
Wei Xiaochun and Tianquan each stood behind their masters, while Ning Yuanhou did not come because he wanted to take a step in advance before they came.
At this time, there were only five young people in the small room, and the sparse sound broke the usual silence.
Although Medical Officer Lu still had doubts about the person in front of him at this time, because it was Ning Yuanhou's order, he suppressed the confusion in his heart and asked, "Where does the girl want to know first?" β
"Tell me about the symptoms of the plague and your daily healing." Talking about business, Xin Yan put away the laziness between his eyebrows.
Medical Officer Lu thought that Xin Yan was just curious, but he didn't expect to know the method of this plague as soon as he opened his mouth, which seemed to be something serious.
However, he is not a procrastinator, he thought about it for a while, reorganized the language, and said: "The conditions of the patients here are different, the mild ones have a low-grade fever and cough, and the severe ones have a high fever and coma, and their symptoms are slightly like wind chills, the pulse is weak and weak, and the early symptoms are headache, fever, pain in the limbs, general weakness, anorexia and vomiting, and then there will be blood spots on the skin, bleeding from the teeth and nostrils, the skin will turn dark, the patient will have blurred meaning, unable to see, dyspnea and hemoptysis. And once the patient has symptoms of coughing up blood, but dies in a day or two, our prescription can only treat those who have mild symptoms and have not been infected for a long time, and for those who are serious, there is no effect at all. β
Xin Yan can already know from his words that this plague is very likely to be "plague", after the infected person eats the mouse, the virus in the rat body is transferred to the human body, resulting in the onset of the disease, although in her time, the plague can be cured a long time ago, but now in this dynasty, the plague is still an "incurable disease", and it can only be hardened according to people's physical conditions.
After Doctor Lu finished speaking, the field suddenly fell silent.
Xin Yan said softly: "I know, thank you Medical Officer Lu for informing me." β
"It's okay, I'm just doing what I want, the girl is polite." Medical Officer Lu hurriedly waved his hand.
At this time, Song Ming suddenly said on the side: "Could it be that the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital can't find a cure?" β
Doctor Lu's face was slightly red, and he coughed unnaturally: "It's a shame to say that the imperial doctors didn't think of how to heal it. β
Xin Yan and Song Ming knew in their hearts, it seems that these imperial doctors should not be used very much, otherwise they would not be sent, thinking that the imperial hospital is also a place to hide filth and dirt, and it is really difficult to get the name of imperial doctors if they are greedy for life and afraid of death.
Doctor Lu made a bitter mistake, and it was not his intention to come this time, the original quota was his sycophant senior brother, but his senior brother was usually lazy and lazy, and he didn't know how to make progress in medical skills, so he tried his best to do some sideways, but his master just ate him, and under his actions, this quota naturally fell on his head.
He asked himself, every time he never fell behind in his homework, and asked carefully what he didn't understand, he could assert that his medical skills were not only limited to medical officers, but every time he failed in medical exams, he had long suspected that his senior brother was playing tricks on him, but there was no evidence, and the master was also biased towards him, so in desperation, he had been bearing the name of this medical officer.
When he learned that he was coming, he was depressed, sad, and angry, and wanted to reason with his master, and he did the same, but in exchange for a scolding and ridicule.
That heart, which has long been smoothed by so many years of injustice and injustice, has no edges and corners, like smooth jade, but it is the cheapest, without the slightest luster.
has also seen through the affairs around him, and it is not easy for poor people to really want to get ahead.
The imperial doctors who were assigned to come over are not the same.
Either they are not reused, or they are not tactful enough, or they are mediocre talents, and even he himself feels that they are the outcasts.
Even if he had been lucky before, when he saw this room full of patients, he destroyed his last line of defense and burned it to the ground.
They tried all the methods, all the ideas they could, and every time they tried the medicine, they got disappointed eyes again and again.
He could only pray to Heaven with others, in the space of comforting the sick.
How ironic it is that a healer who practices medicine to save people cannot even save people, and even prays to God that he will not take their lives so quickly.
Wei Xiaochun caught a glimpse of Doctor Lu's languishing expression, but comforted him kindly: "This, Doctor Lu, you are also too self-blaming, the plague has been difficult to cure since ancient times, and it is not your fault that it cannot be cured, besides, we don't still have time, don't worry, we will help you." My girl will definitely come up with a cure."
This was really unconvincing, but it also made Medical Officer Lu recover from his depressed mood.
He, a big man, was actually comforted by a little girl, which made his self-esteem seriously questioned.
But the person concerned still looked at him with a sincere look, as if to say, you believe me, absolutely right!
Xin Yan has long understood her maid thoroughly, and from her words, you can hear what she is thinking, helplessly holding her forehead, this is the rhythm of selling her when he sees a handsome man.
At this time, if Medical Officer Lu knew Wei Xiaochun's true thoughts, he was afraid that he would not even be able to say thank you for pretending to be calm on the surface.
But obviously, Wei Xiaochun pretended that his kung fu was not at home, and the people present, except for Medical Officer Lu, understood his true intentions.
This is the so-called obsession with the authorities.
Wei Xiaochun also said this, and Xin Yan followed her words and said: "We are here for this, and in the coming days, there are still many places that need the full help of Doctor Lu." β
Medical Officer Lu didn't dare to hold it up: "Where is it, if the girl has anything to do, just ask for it, the lower officer will do his best." β
On the same day, Governor Chen arranged for Xin Yan to live with them, saying that he was living together, but he was only living in the same hospital with them, but it was a five-entry courtyard not far from the placement of patients.
The courtyard was originally purchased by a merchant, but the merchant moved his family out of Licheng County shortly before the plague and outbreak, and it was left vacant.
After the Marquis of Ning Yuan came, the Governor of Chen used this house as a place of residence, and the Marquis of Ningyuan, the Governor of Chen, and those imperial doctors lived here, because it was not far from the patient's residence, so it was easy to observe nearby.
Ning Yuanhou asked his subordinates to clean up before leaving, and deliberately vacated a few rooms, and the bedding and miscellaneous items were all in order, and when Xin Yan and them came over to take a look, they thought that Ning Yuanhou knew their plans early in the morning.
However, Xin Yan still asked Doctor Lu to come over, after all, there were not many places that needed his help in the future.
Ning Yuanhou didn't know whether it was for Xin Yan's sake, or because of something else, he agreed very happily, and also vacated a room for Medical Officer Lu.
If it is as usual, it is absolutely impossible for men and women to be on guard, and what kind of system does it become for lonely men and widows to go in and out all day long, those rumors will definitely scold them to death.
It's just that now is a special period, and the parties also said that they are just to discuss medical skills and do nothing else, and Ning Yuanhou, as a military general, is not like those civil officials who regard the defense of men and women as more important than life, and they don't know how to be flexible.
It's just that as soon as these words came out, Song Ming's eyes were invisible and seemed to have skipped the edge, and there was also a little defensiveness in his eyes when he looked at Medical Officer Lu.
Xin Yan didn't hesitate, and that night he thought about the prescription that he had seen in his mind that might cure the plague.
Of course, the books he was reading at that time were still in his previous life, because she loved to read, so he collected many books for her, and all kinds of books were piled up in her room, and she almost couldn't put them down, and among them was medicine.
It is a relatively miscellaneous medical book, which records the symptoms and treatments of various plagues, but the dosage of Western medicine and Chinese medicine are less and more obscure.
Although she has a good memory, it takes a lot of effort to digest them, and it takes a lot of effort to draw a few recipes in her memory.
At this time, Xin Yan's eyes were dark, and his brows were about to wrinkle into a Sichuan character.
These prescriptions are incomplete, and she really can't remember a few of the drugs, but she vaguely remembers a few words, and the dosage is unknown, and she really doesn't know what the symptoms of these drugs correspond to, and she is not sure that this prescription is the prescription that can cure the plague, and she has a lot of thoughts.
The next day, Xin Yan pulled Dr. Lu to give her various medicines and discuss the dosage, at first Dr. Lu secretly slandered in his heart, this person clearly did not understand medical science, and he was ashamed to say that there was a way.
Adhering to the demeanor of a doctor, Doctor Lu still answered Xin Yan's various strange questions without words.
But Wei Xiaochun found a strange phenomenon, whenever the girl discussed with the Lu medical officer, Song Ming's figure would inevitably appear, and he seemed to be everywhere, always intervening between the two.
