Chapter 284: Releasing the Sick Body with Confidence
King Chuding has long complained about Zhu Huachi, a clansman, this person is young and ignorant, and he has brought a lot of bad reputation to the royal family, where will King Chuding treat him.
At this time, he brought Li Mi over, and he wanted to arrest Liang Tongcheng and the young swordsman, so that this auxiliary lieutenant and the governor of Simen could get some credit, but who would have thought that his cousin Wang Yu would be seriously ill!
Earlier, Zhu Huachi was punished by the Zongren Mansion for marrying Wang Yu, and after he went to the imperial court, he was even demoted a few ranks, but he was not ashamed, but he was complacent, as if he had done something big.
King Chu Ding thought that he really cherished Wang Yu, if this was the case, he would be a good man, and King Chu Ding didn't bother to pay attention to these bullshit things, and he was out of sight for a long time.
If he hadn't come over today, he wouldn't have known that his cousin was so sick that he couldn't come out to pick him up!
After King Chu Ding repelled Zhu Huachi, he took Li Mi to the inner house, Zhu Huachi followed nervously, and those old sectarians were also worried that King Chu would be furious, so they had to follow behind.
After all, it is an inner house, and Wang Yu is just a young woman, so those mothers-in-law and mothers in the house naturally have to come over, which can be regarded as avoiding suspicion for this group of men.
After arriving at this inner house, Li Mi finally understood why the King of Chu was so unkind to see this Zhu Huachi.
Although he has repeatedly cut the knight and punished him, this Zhu Huachi has not changed his extravagance, and the inner house is resplendent and splendid, which is even more glamorous than the palace, but it is less extravagant, just like a dirt bun that became rich overnight.
King Chu's face became more and more unsightly, and this emotion had been pent up, and when he saw Wang Yu's residence, he finally couldn't help but explode!
Along the way, the inner house was extremely luxurious, but when they went to the deepest part, they found that they had arranged Wang Yu in a dilapidated old courtyard, and there was only an old mother by his side to take care of him!
"Lord Wang, things are not what you see......" Zhu Huachi still wanted to quibble, but the King of Chu kicked it over and kicked the auxiliary lieutenant out directly!
"Bastard! The Wang family is also a relative of the first king, you have the audacity to marry your daughter, why are you so abused! ”
King Chuding was furious, and the lieutenant's mansion was trembling, and at this time, those seventy and eighty sect members knelt down and begged for mercy.
King Chu Ding endured it again, after all, although the status of these sects is not high, they are all uncles and even grandfathers, even if Zhu Huakui is the prince, he has to take care of the etiquette and law generation.
"Come in with me."
King Chu Ding forcibly suppressed his anger, said this to Li Mi, and pushed the door in, a damp musty smell mixed with the smell of feces, when even if he pounced on his nose, King Chu frowned.
Where has the old mother seen the prince, she has already knelt outside the door, trembling, and she doesn't even dare to raise her head.
Li Mi was also curious, what kind of appearance did this Wang Yu look like, which could make Zhu Huachi fascinated, and he did not hesitate to violate the ban and ask the overlord to force him to marry, so he also walked in.
However, when he saw the woman on the bed, he was stunned!
But I saw that the legendary Wang Yu was lying on the bed, coughing a few times from time to time, and it could be heard from the sound that the wet phlegm seemed to fill her lungs, and even breathing was a little difficult.
Her face, neck, half-exposed shoulders, and jade feet exposed by the horns were all red spots, flaky, butterfly-shaped, and it was itchy and unbearable, and she scratched a lot of places, and the blood was yellow and pus-flowing, exuding a rotten stench!
These sores did not even spare her ears or even her scalp, and there were many red bald spots on her head, and most of her hair had fallen out, like a ghost shaving her head.
"Someone! Come on! Drag this brute Zhu Huachi out and cut it for me! ”
Even Li Mi couldn't help but feel sorry when he saw this situation, not to mention that King Chuding had always treated Wang Yu as a cousin!
Zhu Huachi also knew that the matter was big, so he hurriedly knelt down and crawled over at this time, and said to King Chuding: "The prince spares his life!" The prince spares his life! It's not like you've seen ......."
King Chu Ding was also angry, kicked him away, and said angrily: "Your family is already full of beautiful wives and concubines, why don't you know how to be satisfied, you want to go out to look for flowers and ask Liu Ye, how to bring this amorous disease back, it seems that you are so forgetful, you should have cut it a long time ago!" ”
Everyone saw that King Chuding was furious, and they all knelt on the ground, all of them pleading for Zhu Huachi, and Li Mi finally knew why they wanted to isolate Wang Yu.
In their opinion, even King Chuding thought that this Wang Yu was suffering from flower willow disease, after all, the butterfly-shaped red spots on her body were too easy for people to have bad associations.
But if it's Hualiu disease, Zhu Huachi should also get sick, after all, aren't these amorous diseases brought back by Zhu Huachi from Fireworks Willow Alley.
Besides, if it is really a merry disease, it is a little strange that the other wives and concubines are so white and clean and do not get sick.
These doubts are actually obvious, if King Chu Ding is more calm, he should be able to think of it.
However, he already had a preconceived dislike for Zhu Huachi, and he was repeatedly annoyed and suppressed along the way, seeing this situation, his lungs exploded, where did he still have the heart to think about this!
Those old sectarians wanted to explain, but King Chuding didn't give this opportunity at all, Zhu Huachi saw that he was going to be dragged out, and hurriedly kept King Chuding's thigh, vague and unclear.
Li Mi came over this time to hear the news from Wang Yu's mouth, but when he saw Wang Yu like this at this time, he also sighed in his heart.
There was a commotion in this room, Wang Yu also woke up, and saw that Zhu Huachi was about to be dragged out, so he hurriedly cried and pleaded with King Chuding.
"Lord Wang, this is all a concubine's life, no wonder the husband's ...... I beg the prince to spare him this time......"
King Chuding saw that Wang Yu was not sober at this juncture, and he still wanted to beg for mercy for this kind of person, so he was really sad and angry, and said to Wang Yu: "Why are you suffering!" ”
Wang Yu also sighed lightly, and said to King Chuding: "The concubine has always been clean and self-conscious, although the husband is greedy for fun, but he is not a person without proportion, the concubine is not good, and she has this evil disease, but it is by no means the kind of pickled disease that the prince thinks, and please blame the husband for not being good......
"How dare you say no! This beast can't do anything! King Chu Ding scolded so angrily, Wang Yu was also difficult to argue, and Li Mi also knew that it was time to go out by himself, otherwise this farce would not know when it would end.
Since Wang Yu wanted to help his husband, Li Mi couldn't sit idly by, so he said to King Chuding at this time.
"Lord Wang, what Madame said is true, this disease is indeed not a merry disease......
King Chu Ding knew that there was a living dead human flesh and bones divine doctor Suo Changsheng beside Li Mi, so he deduced that Li Mi knew the art of disambiguation, after all, those women in the cellar were not all rescued by Li Mi and Suo Changsheng.
So when Li Mi spoke, he also frowned and said to Li Mi: "Do you see what kind of illness this is?" ”
Although Li Mi does not understand medical skills, but he has insight, this disease is very common in later generations, Li Mi as a detective, has a wide range of contact, knowledge, and rich social experience, so he is naturally recognized.
This is a typical lupus erythematosus disease, this disease is more common in women aged 15-40, the cause is not clear, it has a certain hereditary nature, it is not any willow disease at all, but they don't recognize it.
Although Li Mi knew that it was this disease, but ancient Chinese medicine did not have the term lupus erythematosus, if he said this disease, it would inevitably attract doubts, and King Chuding would definitely summon medical officers to consult later, and those medical officers would not know about it at that time, and they had never heard of lupus erythematosus, and then Li Mi would not be able to tell.
Although these medical officers could not treat the victims in the cellar, they were all orthodox Chinese medicine practitioners, and they had a deep understanding of medical skills, and their ability to treat diseases was not necessarily great, but they definitely treasured the theories of Chinese medicine and ancient medical classics.
Li Mi tried hard to recall some memories of lupus erythematosus, thought about it, and then said: "Lord Wang, the red-haired ghost over there in the West calls this disease red butterfly fever or lupus erythematosus, and I also discussed it with several Italia in the Nanjing Chapel before I learned about this disease. ”
Li Mi was also helpless, so he could only throw the pot on the heads of Luo Ruwang and Matteo Ricci.
Sure enough, King Chu Ding didn't believe it, and immediately said to Li Mi: "I don't know that you have dealings with those missionaries, I don't know which Western Confucian you are friends with?" ”
Li Mi had already prepared, so he said to King Chuding: "The Xitai Confucian Matteo Ricci and Luo Ruwang of the Nanjing Chapel are all friends of the lower officials, and in a few days, his entourage will come to look for me, and it will be clear when the prince asks." ”
Li Mi asked Michael to bring Emmanuel over earlier, just to facilitate the investigation of the case, after all, Kaoru Asakusa and Ogasawara Nojo and others were escorted to Beijing together, and Emmanuel asked Matteo Ricci to stay, so he naturally wanted to send him to Li Mi's side.
I didn't expect that this time it was crooked, Michael is a red-haired ghost, and he needs a guide to clear the card all the way south, just take out these, and he will naturally be able to prove his identity, thus confirming the relationship between Li Mi and Matteo Ricci.
King Chuding saw that Li Mi was so calm, and he also knew that Li Mi would not tell lies, and Shicai himself was too annoyed, after all, Li Mi and Wang Yu and Zhu Huachi had never met, so they would not lie to him about this matter.
"It turns out that you are still friends with the Western Tai Confucian Scholars, but you still hide it in the end......"
Although King Chuding was in Wuchang, the Western Tai Confucian scholars preached in Nanchang and other places, built chapels, and were also well-known in the literati circle, so King Chuding had naturally heard of it.
Moreover, King Chuding was able to get the palace report from the imperial court, especially in the recent period, which impressed him even more.
Because Matteo Ricci was recommended by Li Mi, and after the recommendation of Wang Hongzhi and others, he got the opportunity to enter Beijing and face the saint.
According to the newspaper, the saint was also very interested in these red-haired ghosts, and talked with Matteo Ricci for a while, and found that they were not without merit, but perhaps because of their appearance, His Majesty the Emperor still regarded him as a witch.
King Chuding also wrote to a friend in the court that this Western Confucian Matteo Ricci had successfully predicted the solar eclipse, and some people in the court thought that this was a warning from the heavens to let the Wanli Emperor stop the anti-Japanese armament.
However, Matteo Ricci explained to Emperor Wanli, because of his successful prediction, he had an early insight into the heavens, and the Wanli Emperor also trusted him very much, so he reprimanded those lords and factions, and the anti-Japanese armament was able to proceed smoothly.
King Chu Ding was busy with military exercises, so he naturally tended to the main battle faction, and Matteo Ricci's move was supported by the main battle faction and his reputation was far and wide, and King Chu Ding was also impressed, so as soon as Li Mi said it, he believed it.
It's just that he didn't expect that Li Mi, a sesame petty official, would still have a friendship with Xitai Confucian scholars, and it seems that this Li Mi is really not an ordinary man.
King Chu Ding thought like this, so he said to Li Mi: "This king doesn't dare to say that he has a wonderful hand for rejuvenation, but he has also read medical books, and this disease has never been mentioned in medical books. ”
