Gonggong Jiao told Du Wenhao that Song Guifei has a daughter, named Kang Guo, and I heard the palace maid call her a princess, so naturally she is this one, Du Wenhao looked the girl up and down, it turned out that this girl was his own patient, this little pitiful, thin like this, it seemed that she was not lightly ill, and hurriedly bowed down to give a salute: "Weichen Du Wenhao, see Her Royal Highness Princess Kangguo." ”

This princess Kangguo heard in the dormitory that the imperial doctor who treated her illness was coming, and while her entourage was not paying attention, she secretly ran out to take a look, and asked, "You are the judge Du of the Tai Hospital who came to see me?" ”

"Exactly."

The princess sat on the chair opposite Du Wenhao with the support of the palace maid, took a few breaths, and said, "Lord Du, listen to Chen Meiren, your medical skills are good, right?" ”

Du Wenhao was a little surprised in his heart, Chen Meiren would praise herself in front of Song Guifei's mother and daughter, which surprised him a little: "Thank you princess for complimenting, Weichen is ashamed." ”

"You're quite modest, but the doctors who used to treat me were all old men, but I've never seen you so young. It's interesting. ”

Du Wenhao said this a little ridiculously, most of these princes and nobles spoke like this, but in Du Wenhao's eyes, the princess in front of him was just a child, and she was really a junior high school student in modern times, but in the Song Dynasty, she was about to marry another woman's bride. He asked, "Where is the princess unwell?" ”

"What, are you going to see me now?"

"What do you mean, princess?"

"Come back to my room with me, it's inconvenient in public."

"Yes! However, the report has gone in, and the concubine has not yet spoken. ”

"Don't worry, my mother is busy this time." The princess stood up and walked in with the support of the two maids, and Du Wenhao followed behind and walked out of the flower hall.

Walking past a gazebo, the princess suddenly stopped: "Lord Du, let's see a doctor in this pavilion, I really don't want to leave." ”

"Yes, Princess." Du Wenhao thought that the princess was really weird, he didn't want to see a doctor in the flower hall, but he was willing to see it in the gazebo, anyway, it was to diagnose the pulse and look at the tongue, ask about the condition, there was no other contact, it was the same in the gazebo and the flower hall, and it was cool here. Then he followed the princess into the gazebo.

After sitting down on the stone bench, Du Wenhao asked, "Where is the princess unwell?" ”

The princess replied, "By the way, Lord Du, have you seen the right guard general Wang Yu?" ”

Du Wenhao already knew that this princess of Kangguo was married to Wang Yu, the general of the right guard. Du Wenhao glanced at her, this princess is really jumping thinking, but in ancient times, men and women got married, and few of them could meet before marriage. Presumably, this princess is anxious to know what her future husband will be, so she asks this question, no wonder she wants to see a doctor in this pavilion because she doesn't want others to hear about it. Then he replied: "Back to the princess, Weichen has never seen General Wang. ”

The princess was really disappointed, turned her head to look outside, and was speechless for a moment.

Du Wenhao finally began to take the initiative to speak: "Princess, may I ask where you are unwell?" ”

The princess said impatiently, "Don't you have long eyes?" Don't you see that my feet are swollen and I can't walk? ”

Du Wenhao was stunned for a moment, he was ordered to serve the doctor in the harem, except that Chen Meiren didn't know him and used to show him a face, it has always been smooth sailing, everyone sees him with a smiling face, this princess suddenly said a bad mouth, Du Wenhao couldn't help but feel angry in his stomach, and was about to have a seizure, but the princess got up first and apologized: "I'm sorry, Lord Du, I'm upset, and I ask for forgiveness for my offense." ”

Du Wenhao also understood that the princess was upset about the marriage, plain and domineering, and what she said casually was not aimed at herself, but she was also a half-old child, so she smiled and said: "It's okay, the princess feels that something is wrong?" ”

The princess slowly rolled up her trouser legs, only to see that her legs were swollen like two mallets, white and translucent, and she reached over and pressed it gently, a small pit, and it took a long time to slowly recover.

Du Wenhao nodded: "What other symptoms?" ”

"I'm thirsty, I'm hot, I don't want to eat, I'm weak, and I can't sleep well at night."

"Which doctor has you seen?"

"Doctor Xia of the Women's Department of Tai Hospital is the old woman who can see the molars whenever she speaks."

Du Wenhao frowned slightly, this princess is really an impolite child, she is spoiled, so marrying a princess as a wife may not be a good thing. Said lightly: "Master Xia is the female doctor of the Tai Hospital, and he is the most experienced doctor in the female department of the Tai Hospital. ”

The princess said disdainfully, "It's not that she didn't take care of my illness. ”

Du Wenhao didn't say much, knowing that it was useless to talk more with this kind of person's arrogant **, so he asked again: "When did the princess start to notice symptoms such as swollen legs and feet?" ”

The princess shook her head: "I don't remember." ”

When Du Wenhao heard this, he was very shocked, this princess wouldn't be a head show, why didn't she even remember this: "Princess, the onset time is very important, please remember it well." ”

The princess was a little restless, but finally patiently recalled, and said, "It seems that it will be almost a year, or two years, who knows, anyway, it has been uncomfortable for the past two years!" ”

"Princess, Weichen will take the pulse for you." After that, he took out the pulse diagnosis from the outpatient box and put it on the stone table, the princess pouted and put her hand on the pulse pillow, Du Wenhao lifted the bowl to diagnose the pulse, looked at the tongue again, pondered for a moment, and said: "Princess, there is something I want to ask you, please recall it carefully, because it is very important." ”

"Just ask."

"When did Princess Geranium start?"

The princess blushed: "Why are you asking this?" ”

"Because the princess's illness is related to the imbalance of the geranium. It is important to ask questions. ”

"It seems like half a year ago, no, it's been eight months, no, it's almost a year, ah, no......"

Du Wenhao smiled bitterly: "Princess, this is too far away." ”

"Oh, it's all my mother's fault! said that when I first arrived, my body was weak, and I had to make up for heat, and let the imperial dining room give me something to fry mutton and moxibustion chicken for three days, and I sat next to me and forced me to eat, and I was nauseous when I ate it. As a result, the geranium didn't come either, and I didn't come for several months, my mother was in a hurry, and I didn't know where to find a box of pills, saying what kind of Tianxiong Deer Antler Silk Pills, let me eat! As a result, the water did not come, and even his feet were swollen. I was so upset that I couldn't remember the time. ”

Du Wenhao frowned and said: "What is this Tianxiong Deer Antler Silk Pill, I don't know very well, but judging from the name, it should be hot." Princess, your sunflower is just coming, it's really not suitable for hot supplements! ”

"Really? Who said that?! A woman's voice came from not far behind him.

Du Wenhao looked back, only to see a few women not far away, the first one, but a noblewoman, not as beautiful as the queen, not as coquettish as Chen Meiren, and not as sweet as Concubine De, but some are a kind of graceful and luxurious, with thousands of demeanors. Zheng looked at Du Wenhao with a smile and said, "This dare is Lord Du, right?" ”

"That's right, he's Master Du from Tai Hospital." The princess pouted and said, "Mother, why are you here!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Du Wenhao knew that this person was Song Guifei, and hurriedly got up to give a salute: "Weichen Du Wenhao, see Guifei Niangniang." ”

Song Guifei waved her hand: "No need to be polite, Lord Du, please take a seat." After that, he sat down on the stone bench first, smiled at Du Wenhao, and said, "I'm really sorry, there was a guest just now, I was delayed, and I just had time to spare this time, and I hope Lord Du won't be surprised." ”

"Don't dare." Du Wenhao lifted his robe and sat down crookedly.

Song Guifei asked: "Master Du just said that the first arrival of the sunflower is not suitable for hot supplementation, so why?" ”

"It is a good choice for women to use natural dietary therapy to help them get through menstruation, such as drinking brown sugar water to help menstrual blood discharge, and simmering hoof tendons with shiitake mushrooms to relieve muscle and bone pain. However, if the diet is not properly supplemented, it can be counterproductive. ”

"You mean, this palace made a mistake in giving the child a hot supplement?"

Du Wenhao didn't answer directly, but asked, "Why does Niangniang want to make up for it?" ”

"The child is weak, and the menstrual water that comes here is intermittent, it must be the blood withering and amenorrhea, and the menstrual meridians should be warmed to activate blood circulation and dispel blood stasis, so it should be warmed and supplemented."

Du Wenhao laughed and said, "Who told you?" ”

Song Guifei was a little embarrassed, and said: "This palace has read some medical books before, and I just pondered it like this, what, isn't it?" ”

"Of course not, the young woman is not filled with qi and blood, and the water is intermittent, because the qi and blood are not filled, which is a normal phenomenon, and after a period of time, it will naturally be normal, no need to take medicine, no need to deliberately eat supplements, and you can't make up indiscriminately. When the princess geranium first arrived, the mother misused the heat supplement, which caused the princess's stomach to grow inward, and the yin blood was eliminated, so the blood withered and amenorrhea, and could not recover for several months. ”

Song Guifei's eyes widened: "Really? ”

"Yes, Niangniang, you use food to supplement heat, the amount is lighter, and it is just menopause, but what kind of Tianxiong deer antler silk pills do you use for your child, you know, Tianxiong, deer antler These medicines are all hot supplements, and it is strange that the child is not edema!"

"Huh? Do you say that my son's edema is caused by taking Tianxiong Deer Antler Silk Pills? ”

"Yes, plus your hot supplement." Speaking of this, Du Wenhao shook his head again and again, "It is clearly written on the "Golden Kui Yaolu": 'If the meridian water is not passed, the meridian is blood, and if the blood is unfavorable, it is water, and the name is blood. Do you understand what you mean? ”

Concubine Song and her daughter glanced at each other and shook their heads together.

Du Wenhao said: "The meaning of this sentence is that a woman's menstruation should not work or go badly, it is originally menstrual blood, it will turn into water, and edema will appear!" In this case, the source of edema disease is not water, which cannot be treated as a general edema disease, but is caused by unfavorable menstrual blood, and the disease is in the blood. Therefore, you first continue to use food supplements and heat supplements, and then use large heat supplements pills to give your child to take, so that the amenorrhea is more solid, and the menstrual water is blocked, and edema will be formed. That's why the child's feet are swollen like this. ”

Song Guifei suddenly stroked her palms and said: "No wonder, please come to Imperial Doctor Xia, she was treated according to edema, and the more she treated, the more she treated, it turned out that it was not real edema, but that the menstrual blood was unfavorable and turned into edema!" ”

"That's right!" Du Wenhao smiled and said, no wonder this Song Guifei was able to please the emperor back then, she was very smart, "Just now, Weichen diagnosed the princess's pulse and found that the princess's pulse was large and wet, which confirmed the inference just now, the princess is a sea of blood and heat, heat and blood are dry, the pulse is not strong, Ren pulse is not clear, the heat is taken by mistake, the yin fluid is lost, and the fire is inflammatory." ”

Song Guifei said: "Then how to use medicine?" ”

"Now that the cause is clear, the medication is naturally clear. Clear heat and cultivate yin! ”

"Oh, then please take the medicine below. The child's wedding date is set for the next month, so he must be cured earlier, so don't delay the day. ”

Du Wenhao pinched his fingers, nodded and said, "Niangniang, please rest assured, as long as you take the medicine on time, you can't delay the princess's good life." ”

The princess's face, which was originally full of gloom, had now bloomed into a smile, and she lowered her head in shame.

Sure enough, Du Wenhao prescribed medicine and only took two doses, the princess's heat and thirst subsided, and when she continued to take medicine a few days later to recover, she didn't expect an accident.

On this day, Du Wenhao came to Song Guifei's Xiaoxian Palace to give the princess a follow-up.

Before entering the garden, he heard that the garden was very lively, so Du Wenhao asked the eunuch who led the way what was going on.

The eunuch said: "Lord Du, it was General Wang who heard that the princess was sick and came to visit, they were all in the front yard, and the old slave took you around the bend to the princess for a follow-up." ”

"What, my fiancé is here, won't the princess accompany me?"

The eunuch smiled and said, "Lord Du thinks that he is busy and confused, and the princess is not married, how can she let the people of her husband's family see it?" What's more, it was General Wang himself who came. ”

Du Wenhao suddenly understood, and nodded yes again and again.

When I came to the princess's room, the princess was not in the room. The eunuch asked Du Wenhao to wait in the flower hall outside the princess's boudoir and go to find the princess by himself.

After a while, Du Wenhao saw Song Guifei and the princess coming over with a group of people.

Du Wenhao hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down: "Weichen Du Wenhao, I have seen the concubine Niangniang, I have seen the princess." ”

The princess kept a straight face and did not speak, but snorted her nostrils in agreement, and walked straight into the house.

Song Guifei was full of joy and said, "Lord Du is here, please sit in the room!" ”

Entering the house and sitting down, Song Guifei took out a silk handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose, coughed twice pretendedly, looked at Du Wenhao, and stopped talking.

In the previous follow-up visits, the princess would sit down immediately and put her wrist on the pulse pillow for Du Wenhao to diagnose the pulse, but this time she sat alone in front of the window, looking out the window and ignoring it. Du Wenhao secretly felt that something was wrong, and glanced at the Song lady suspiciously.

Song Guifei coughed lightly: "Lord Du, this ......, um......"

"Niangniang has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Song Guifei glanced at Du Wenhao and nodded secretly with his keen intuition. Laughed dryly, it seemed a little unnatural, picked up the tea bowl on a few cases, took a sip, and then said: "That's the case, General Shicai Wang said that his mother was unwell a few days ago, so he asked the Tai Hospital to judge Master Fu Hefu to take a look, and he has recovered in the past few days, and after learning that the princess is sick, he has been strongly recommending Lord Fu to see the princess." So ......"

Du Wenhao understood, it turned out that Song Guifei wanted to change the doctor to treat the princess at this time, looking at the princess like that, she obviously also had this idea, after all, it was strongly recommended by the future husband, of course this face should be given. Since people don't trust themselves, or have other intentions to change doctors, this is the right of others, and they don't need to be cheeky to look at the princess's illness, thinking of this, Du Wenhao got up and arched his hand and said: "Niangniang's meaning Weichen understands." Wechen retired. ”

Concubine Song Guifei hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "Lord Du, please don't be surprised, in fact, the palace also told General Wang that after the princess took the medicine you prescribed, she has been much better, but ......"

Du Wenhao knew that in fact, Song Guifei didn't want to offend herself like this, and she didn't want to offend Concubine De in this matter, she personally went to Concubine De to let her come to see the princess, but now she changed doctors halfway, and her face was a little unhappy. Hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Niangniang doesn't need to explain, Weichen understands." Wechen farewell! ”

Du Wenhao turned around and went out, feeling a little aggrieved.

Since the last time he treated Concubine De, Du Wenhao was alone and Fu He shirked his responsibility, Du Wenhao was very disdainful of Fu He's character. Although Fu He later came to the door in person to apologize, Du Wenhao still did not forgive him from his heart, as the so-called wind knows the strength of the grass, that kind of critical moment, the true nature of a person is really revealed, and he concluded that this Fu He cannot be handed over. Unexpectedly, this time the princess's fiancé strongly recommended Fu He to treat the princess, so Du Wenhao was very depressed.

He was depressed, and Song Guifei was also a little stunned. After Du Wenhao left, Song Guifei looked at the direction of Du Wenhao's departure with a blank face.

The princess stepped forward and comforted: "Mother, don't think about it so much, since it was recommended by General Wang, there should be nothing wrong." ”

Song Guifei sighed and said: "It's not a problem of illness, Master Fu is a judge of the Tai Hospital, and his medical skills are very good, General Wang's recommendation is right, he will definitely be able to cure your disease, but Lord Du has cured it well, and your illness has been cured by four or five points, and the effect is obvious, at this time, let's change the doctor, Lord Du will have ideas." ”

"What's wrong with him having an idea? My illness, I love to ask whoever to be treated, can he manage it! ”

"That's not what the words say, alas! Lord Du is now a big celebrity in front of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager. ”

"What's wrong with that? General Wang Yu is still a big celebrity in front of the emperor! ”

"Because of this, my mother promised you to change doctors, alas, this matter is not handled well, I'm afraid Concubine De's side will not be very comfortable."

"Hmph, what is her concubine!"

"What do you know! In addition to that Chen Meiren, now Concubine De can win the favor of your father, can such a person be offended? ”

The princess whispered hatefully, "Father is too!" I haven't come to see you for so many years, sometimes I hate him so much! ”

"Shut up!" Song Guifei was so frightened that her face turned white, and when she looked left and right, there were only two palace maids who were close to her, and they were all under the corridor, so she was probably not able to hear them, so she was slightly relieved, and said angrily: "Why do you talk like this, this kid?" If your father hears this, our mother and sister will be able to live! ”

"Oh, the boy knows." The princess pouted and said, "Mother, anyway, I have already asked Master Fu to treat my daughter, so don't think about it too much, just explain it to Concubine Nade next time?" ”

Song Guifei sighed again and said, "That's the only way." ”
