Chapter 97: There is a problem with the scripture

The iron box has been rusted and not locked, open it carefully, and there is indeed an oilcloth paper package inside, after opening, there is another layer of oilcloth paper inside, three layers in a row, all opened, which revealed the contents wrapped inside. -- A white cloth swaddling cloth and a ribbon. Nothing else.

Lu Jinping looked at the ribbon, one part of the ribbon was written with the eight characters of birthday, and the other end was written with two small characters of 'Jinping', the handwriting calligraphy was very ordinary, and it could be seen that the person who wrote this word should not have any calligraphy attainments. Perhaps it was the erosion of time, and the whole ribbon was grayish-yellow.

He looked at the swaddling cloth again, and it was just a white cloth with a few yellow marks, but there was no pattern, embroidery, or handwriting on it, and the fabric was very ordinary.

Lu Jinping couldn't help but ponder, what he saw with his own eyes was nothing more than what his sister Lu Fengniang told him just now. Judging from these clues at present, there is no clear direction, but from the point of view of the average level of handwriting and calligraphy, plus the fabric, it is estimated that the mother of the scholar who leaned over should only be a woman from an ordinary family.

If it's just an ordinary child, how can it attract such a woman with superb martial arts to protect herself? Correspondingly, how can an ordinary child's life face a super terrifying life threat that needs to be protected by a woman with superb martial arts?

What the hell is going on?

Lu Jinping sat on the grass and looked at these things, thought for a long time, and shook his head with a wry smile.

He wrapped it in oilcloth paper again and put it in his arms. Then he buried the pit he had dug and returned to his study, where he put the oilcloth paper in his forensic investigation box.

――――――――――――――――

After Imperial Doctor Zhang received Feng Tingshi's letter. Immediately set off and rushed to the same state.

After all, Imperial Doctor Zhang is only from the sixth grade, while Feng Tingshi is the third grade, and the letter is written very politely, of course, for the sake of him being the imperial doctor next to the emperor. However, the letter made the seriousness of the matter very clear, and Imperial Doctor Zhang did not dare to slack off, so he immediately asked for leave and drove to Tongzhou. That's the next day.

Lu Jinping read medical books in the signing room of the yamen's medicinal herb warehouse. He wants to learn to read some Chinese medicine books and make up for his basic knowledge of Chinese medicine, which may be useful in the future.

At this moment, a scribe came in to report that Feng Tingshi had been invited. Imperial Doctor Zhang has arrived. Lu Jinping hurriedly took the copy of Ge Hong's "Legend of the Immortals", as well as a pill prepared by Zhang Dalang, and followed the attendant to the inner office.

When I entered the flower hall, I saw a white-haired old man, wearing an official uniform, talking to Feng Tingshi.

Feng Tingshi hurriedly introduced and made an introduction.

Lu Jinping hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, after all, he was the imperial doctor next to the emperor. To give him face is to give face to the emperor. Now that I have come to the land of the Tang Dynasty, of course, I must respect the emperor, the leading boss.

The old man quickly got up and bowed to Lu Jinping. He smiled and said: "I have heard of Lord Lu's medical skills in the capital, and I heard that the illness of the daughter of the old lady Gao of the Ministry of Officials was cured by you, but the doctor of our hospital did not cure it in person." It can be seen that the master's medical skills are really admirable. ”

Mrs. Gao's daughter was actually hit with arsenic, and the murderer of that case, Mrs. Gao, and her accomplice girl hanged themselves afterwards, in order to maintain the reputation of the Gao family, so the truth of that case has not been spread. They only knew that Mrs. Gao's only daughter was seriously ill and was not cured by the famous doctors who were invited, but it was Lu Jinping, a divine doctor, who cured her. Imperial Doctor Zhang also knew so, so he was full of praise for Lu Jinping.

Lu Jinping said a few polite words, and the guests and hosts sat down again, and Lu Jinping sat down under Luo Justice.

Imperial Doctor Zhang said: "I heard that Feng Tingshi said that you are investigating the case of my nephew being treated by improper medicine, and that there are serious problems outside the case in this case, let me come to discuss, now, please ask what is going on?" ”

Lu Jinping briefly explained the whole case first, and Imperial Doctor Zhang nodded after listening to it and said, "They reported this matter to me, and I only said that I would report it to the official to solve it." ”

Lu Jinping nodded, if Imperial Doctor Zhang really had this attitude, it would be easy to do. He asked the attendant to hand the medical book in his hand and handed it to Imperial Doctor Zhang, saying, "This book is stored in the Yamen Medical Hall. Ask Imperial Doctor Zhang, can this book be used as a basis for healing? ”

Imperial Doctor Zhang took it and looked at it carefully, and said: "This is the "Legend of the Immortals" by Ge Hong, a famous doctor in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which is a classic medical book, and of course can be used as the basis for treatment and dispensing. ”

"Well, what I want to tell Imperial Doctor Zhang is that the big red pill prepared by Huang Langzhong who treated your nephew was prepared according to the record in this book, but your nephew only ate two and died of poisoning."

Speaking of this, Lu Jinping didn't continue, just looked at the other party meaningfully, waiting for his reaction.

Imperial Doctor Zhang's gray eyebrows furrowed, and he said, "The big red pill from Ge Hong's "Legend of the Immortals" cured people? According to the meaning of Lord Lu's words just now, does it mean that there is a problem with the formula of Ge Hong's big red pill? ”

"I want to ask Imperial Doctor Zhang if he has used the Big Red Pill to treat people before?"

Imperial Doctor Zhang shook his head and said, "This recipe is for the treatment of bone injuries, which is not my specialty, I rarely see this kind of disease, and I have never used this recipe." ”

Lu Jinping asked again: "Has anyone in Tai Hospital used this prescription?" ”

Imperial Doctor Zhang looked at the compatibility of the big red pill, smiled, shook his head and said, "This recipe will not be used by the Tai Hospital, because the Chuanwu used in this recipe is highly toxic, and the dosage is very large." The Tai Hospital's medication is mainly based on neutrality and peace, and it is impossible to use such a domineering medicine with a sword, especially a highly toxic prescription, in the royal family. Even ordinary Langzhong should be very cautious when using this recipe. ”

Lu Jinping nodded and said: "That's right, that's why many people don't pay attention to it, because this recipe is too domineering, and it will not be used by ordinary langzhong, so it doesn't cause great harm, but I found that this recipe is problematic, so I want to invite the imperial doctor." Just a reminder that you need to take appropriate measures to avoid a repeat of your nephew's tragedy. ”

Imperial Doctor Zhang raised his white eyebrows. said to Lu Jinping: "My nephew really died in the medicine configured in this prescription? ”

Lu Jinping said: "There should be no problem with this recipe itself, after all, it is recorded in medical books, and it is a recipe handed down by famous doctors." The problem lies in the method of concoction. It is recorded in "The Legend of the Immortals": Sichuan Wu is seven taels per catty, and the fire is simmering. This method of preparation is to wrap Chuanwu in wet kraft paper and bury it in hot furnace ash to bake for a certain period of time, and then take it out to dispense medicine, knead it into pills for people to take, I don't know if this is the case? ”

Imperial Doctor Zhang nodded and said, "It should be like this." Although I haven't configured the big red pill, but. The recipe in this book is marked with 'fire simmering', which is the method you just mentioned, and this is true, this method of concocting is not unique to Aconitum sinensis. Some other medicinal herbs are also prepared in this way. ”

Lu Jinping said: "The toxicity of Chuanwu is very great, with the "Legend of the Immortals" medical book recorded in this processing method, the toxicity is not completely eliminated, at the same time, the method of 'fire simmering' is not the best way to concoct aconitum, using this method, even if it is a long time, it is still difficult to completely remove the toxicity, and it may still cause death." ”

Imperial Doctor Zhang looked at him: "What do you mean." There is a problem with the preparation method recorded in this recipe in the famous doctor Ge Hong's "Legend of the Immortals", and using this recipe to dispense medicine will poison people, right? ”

"Isn't that the case, we can do an experiment. Just get it. ”

"What test?"

"Let Huang Langzhong be in the concoction room of the medical hall, according to the compatibility of the big red pill recorded in Ge Hong's medical book "The Legend of the Immortals", configure a pill on the spot, and then give it to a fat pig with a similar weight as a human to take it, we will observe the reaction of this fat pig to know if there is a problem."

Imperial Doctor Zhang and Feng Tingshi both nodded. Thought it was a good idea.

Imperial Doctor Zhang pondered for a moment and said to Lu Jinping: "If the result proves that the lord is right." How does the lord plan to deal with this case? ”

"If it turns out that my speculation is correct, it means that it is the problem of the Jing Fang, and there is a problem with the medical record, then Lang Zhong should not be held responsible, and this case cannot be compensated, let alone the responsibility of 'inferior to this side', and at the same time, I also ask Zhang Imperial Doctor to report to the Tai Hospital to take corresponding measures to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past."

Imperial Doctor Zhang pondered for a moment and said, "Okay! If it is really proved that there is a problem with the scripture side, it will be handled according to the opinion of the lord. ”

Lu Jinping's heart was relieved, this Imperial Doctor Zhang was still very reasonable, and this case was easy to handle, and said: "Then please ask Imperial Doctor Zhang and Master Thorn Shi to go to our Yamen Medical Center together, and send Huang Langzhong to prepare pills." ”

So, several people followed together to the concoction room of the Yamen Medical Hall. This place is specially used for brewing medicinal materials. Prepare special processing equipment and corresponding equipment.

When I got there, I saw several fat pigs in the yard, all of which were more than 100 catties and no more than 200 catties.

Soon, Xiong Zhutou also took Huang Langzhong up.

Huang Langzhong's face turned pale when he saw Imperial Doctor Zhang, he already knew that the backstage of the other party he was causing trouble was an imperial doctor, and now he saw the official robe that the old man was wearing, and that eerie feeling, his intuition told him that the old man who came was afraid that Zhang Dalang and they asked him to compensate 100,000 Wen, the imperial doctor beside the emperor.

Fortunately, the imperial physician didn't speak, just looked at him coldly.

Lu Jinping said to Huang Langzhong: "Now, there is a full set of concoction tools here, you can concoct two pills according to the method you configured for Daddy Zhang, that is, the compatibility of the big red pills in Ge Hong's scripture "The Legend of the Immortals". We'll see. ”

Huang Langzhong hurriedly agreed and began to concoct. The relevant herbs are ready. Imperial Doctor Zhang watched from the side, he had checked all these drugs before, and there was no problem, and now he needed to supervise whether Huang Langzhong's compatibility was carried out in accordance with the Jing Fang, and at the same time, whether there was any problem with the method of concoction, especially the method of concoction of aconitum that Lu Jinping said earlier. Because according to Lu Jinping, this is the key to the problem. Therefore, the concoction must be carried out according to the scriptures.

Imperial Doctor Zhang, as an imperial doctor, of course knows all this, although he has not configured this big red pill, but everything is unchanged. He still knows if there is a problem. (To be continued)
