Chapter 144: The Bones of Justice

The Imperial Medical Hall is the busiest and most idle place in the Yuanguo Imperial Palace, and it is said that it is busy, because it has to prescribe a lot of prescriptions to the harem concubines every day, as well as those powerful courtiers and princes in the outer palace, and even eunuchs; It is said that it is leisurely, because it is different from the harem of the previous dynasty, there is a lot less intrigue and deceit.

However, the atmosphere of the Imperial Medical Hall on this day was a little different from the past, and the main hall, which was usually noisy and full of discussions, was silent, and there was a hint of nervousness in the air.

"I spent a day tracking down the medicines that were sent out, and the prescriptions and dispenses prescribed by the other doctors were all the same, except for the six prescriptions I prescribed, each of which had at least one medicine that did not match, and all of them were dangerously different from the original medicine. I don't know if this is the traditional rule in the palace or if the medicine depot intends to test me as a newcomer, but this kind of behavior is really bad, not only will it ruin the reputation of a medical officer, but it will also be irresponsible to the patient. The evidence is here, and I hope that the ambassador can uphold justice and return the innocence of the Imperial Medical Hall. ”

The six pairs of medicinal herbs spread out were placed on the table, and Yan Liwu stood tall beside the table, and his eyes fearlessly greeted Tang Shouzhong, the envoy of the Imperial Medical Pavilion.

At this time, there were not only the medical officers in the Imperial Medical Hall, but also several stewards and subordinates of the medicine store, who were full of confidence when they heard the words and saw her presenting evidence, and everyone talked about it one after another.

The imperial doctor, the exclusive doctor of the Son of Heaven, although in fact most of the time is spent in the diagnosis and treatment of other harem personnel, but the medical officers in the imperial medical hall finally represent the top medical skills in the Yuan Kingdom, and now the medical officers in the imperial medical hall prescribe outrageous prescriptions, not only the medical officers are covered with dust on their faces, if anyone is investigated, the envoy in charge of the imperial medical hall Tang Shouzhong will not be able to escape the blame.

"You mean someone in the medicine store deliberately took the wrong medicine, right?" Glancing at the staff of the medicine warehouse who were whispering on the side, Tang Shouzhong snorted, and there was no good color on his face, "It's not that I belittle you, you are an unemployed medical officer who has just entered the Imperial Medical Pavilion, who framed you for what?" Is it good? The Imperial Medical Hall and the Pharmacy complement each other, trust each other for many years, and there has never been such a strange thing, but you have been in a storm as soon as you came, should you blame others or yourself? ”

Tang Shouzhong's tone was clearly speaking to the medicine storehouse, which caught Yan Liwu, who came to seek justice, bit his lip, and still insisted on his opinion: "Is it me who is restless or someone is making trouble, take out the prescription record and take a look, isn't it easy to figure out whether there are these medicines in the prescription I prescribed?" ”

Every prescription prescribed by a medical officer must be recorded, and Yan Liwu is no exception. However, what Yan didn't expect was that when Tang Shouzhong asked someone to take the record book and look through it, the dissatisfaction and boredom on his face immediately turned into a disdainful sneer.

"At a young age, I know that red mouth and white teeth tell lies, how can a person like you enter my Imperial Medical Hall to serve? See for yourself, I see what else you have to quibble! Tang Shouzhong threw the record book on the case, and then bowed down to Chang Jing, the medicine in the medicine storehouse, "I have no way to discipline the Imperial Medical Pavilion, and there is such a person with corrupt medical ethics, and I also ask Master Chang not to pursue it for the sake of Tang someone's face, and Tang someone will definitely come to the door to apologize another day." ”

Chang Jing waved his hand and deliberately made a generous appearance: "Where did Lord Tang say?" The fault is not with you, but with those who know their mistakes and do not admit them and die without repentance. As for this matter, I don't intend to hold anyone responsible, just let her apologize to Gong Xu; But after all, it is such a major matter as prescribing the wrong medicine, so you have to tell the emperor. ”

Tang Shouzhong and Chang Jing didn't pay attention to what they said, in fact, when she grabbed the record book and looked through it, she already understood that this matter was "clearly responsible", and the fault was all on her - the prescriptions she prescribed in the record book were indeed those who were wrong to the point of absurdity, and there was no way to argue.

The Imperial Physician is responsible for the health of the emperor, harem concubines, and princes, and there is an extremely strict process for diagnosing and prescribing prescriptions, such as this record book, in addition to being personally transcribed by the administrator in charge of the affairs of the Imperial Physician's Office according to the prescription, it is also necessary to bind and sort out the original prescriptions issued by the imperial physician or medical officer, and properly store them together with the record book.

However, principles are principles, and there are always some things that do not develop according to the inherent laws, such as the prescription written by Yan Liwu himself.

"I didn't write this prescription." The hand clenching the sleeve was weak, and Yan Liwu put down the notebook and whispered a defense, but even she could feel that the tone was hopeless.

Tang Shouzhong glanced at Jiang Hong, the manager of the Imperial Medical Pavilion who was standing on his sleeves on the side, and snorted mockingly in his nose: "This ugly handwriting is rare to see in a hundred years, except for the Yan Medical Officer, Tang has really never seen anyone else who can write it." The white and black words are clear, but the medical officer still has to quibble, could it be that he wants to turn a blind eye to the ironclad evidence and put the blame on Jiang Guanju, who manages the record book? ”

Jiang Hong heard Tang Shouzhong mention his name, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, with a sad and excited face: "Xia Guan has been serving in the Imperial Medical Hall for nineteen years, and he has always been conscientious and loyal to his duties, and there has never been a mistake, and it is absolutely impossible to write the wrong prescription!" Please Lord Tang to investigate and return the official to a clean slate! ”

"Jiang Guan is careful and serious, and has not had any omissions over the years, and has always been a model respected by everyone in the Imperial Medical Hall and the Medicine Library, but I didn't expect to be slandered by a yellow-haired girl today. Alas, in the end, the identity background works, and you are not afraid of causing trouble wherever you go! Fan Gonggong, who was also in charge of the medicine in the medicine store, said with a strange voice.

Yan Liwu firmly believed that he was right, and he didn't think that Jiang Guanju was doing something from it, but the people in the medicine library wanted to be far-fetched and misinterpret her meaning, and the problem of the wrong prescription here had not been verified clearly, and he immediately put the hat of planting blame and relying on his status to bully his superiors on Yan Liwu's head, obviously trying to make things bigger. Yan Li couldn't think of where he had offended the medicine store, and looked at Doctor Zhou with a slight expectation, but saw that Doctor Zhou hurriedly turned his head and refused to even look at her.

Even if you have a relationship, you have to avoid her, don't want to be implicated? Sure enough, people are cold and thin, and interests are paramount.

The new entrance to the hospital prescribes the wrong prescription, this kind of thing can be big or small, looking at Tang Shouzhong and Chang Jing's attitude, it must be a big trouble. Yan Liwu knew that the other party had forged evidence in his hand, and he had no chance of winning, so he simply stopped arguing, and just waited for them to propose a way to deal with it, and at this moment, someone else spoke.

"I've seen the doctor write prescriptions, and the dosage is very appropriate, so I shouldn't have made such an outrageous mistake; Besides, the record book and prescriptions are placed in the study room of the medical hall, and everyone has the opportunity to touch the hands and feet, and the handwriting of the medical officer is naΓ―ve and easy to imitate. ”

A light and light sentence with no special meaning, it sounded very meaningful at this time, and Yan Liwu turned her head with a little surprise and looked at it, it was Fang Tian, another judge in the Imperial Medical Pavilion, who was speaking for her.

The Imperial Medical Hall is divided into the Imperial Infirmary and the Palace Infirmary, the Imperial Infirmary is designed for the emperor to diagnose and prescribe medicine, the eleven Imperial Doctors are all skilled, and Fang Tian, who is the judge of the Imperial Doctor's Room, is even the best in the middle, and his status is naturally higher than others, and even Tang Shouzhong has to respect him for three points.

Seeing that Fang Tian opened his mouth to excuse his worries, Tang Shouzhong's face stiffened slightly, and then pretended to be fair: "This matter is beyond the jurisdiction of my Imperial Medical Pavilion, and it should be reported to the emperor, but what Fang Guan said is also reasonable, the stakes are very high, and it must be investigated carefully and there is definite evidence in order to teach people to be convinced." His eyes pretended to sweep over Father-in-law Xu inadvertently, and after receiving Father-in-law Xu's eyes, Tang Shouzhong raised his hand: "Jiang Guanju is responsible for the custody of the record book and prescriptions, and it is inconvenient to get involved in this, so the investigation can only be done with hard work." The medicine store's side is also bothering Lord Chang and the two fathers-in-law to take care of it, and when there is a result, Tang will immediately give an explanation to the medicine store. ”

After all, Gonggong Xu was not the head of the medicine storehouse, and his rank and status were far lower than Tang Shouzhong and Fang Tian, and seeing that the opinions within the Imperial Medical Hall were not unanimous, he could only choose to temporarily retreat, and after complaining a little unhappily, he followed Chang Jing and left. Tang Shouzhong was refuted by Fang Tian in public, although he wanted to maintain harmony on his face, he finally felt uncomfortable in his heart, and he hid in the study under the pretext of checking the medical book, and the others dispersed, leaving only Zhou Medical Officer who was worried and wanted to stop talking.

"It's not too early, let's go back early, as long as you have a clear conscience, there will always be a judgment in this matter." Medical Officer Zhou used the action of packing up his things to hide his embarrassment, and the smile he barely squeezed out was stiff and dry.

Yan Li raised his eyes, and his eyes were cold: "In order to prevent mistakes, many of the prescriptions I wrote have been reviewed by Medical Officer Zhou, but Medical Officer Zhou didn't say a fair word for me just now." ”

"You also know that the prince and I are just ......" Doctor Zhou showed a look of embarrassment, and his voice was much lower, "The prince entrusted me to take care of you, and I have always tried my best to do it, but this matter is too wide-ranging, what can I do as a nine-rank medical officer in the palace doctor's room?" The envoy of the Tang Pavilion and the father-in-law Xu clearly want to rectify you, even if I stand up to defend you, how can they take those arguments seriously? Miss Yan, I beg you, don't hit the stone with an egg again, you should know very well who you have offended in this palace and who you have grudged with, it is inevitable to be wronged and excluded, just bear it if you can, it's better than offending more people and suffering more. ”

Yan Liwu clenched his fists and sneered, his eyes were faintly cold: "Thank you Doctor Zhou for your kindness, it's a pity that I was born with a strange disease, and my backbone is so hard that I can't bend it by half a minute, let alone paint black as white and say right as wrong." Since Doctor Zhou has many concerns, there is no need for you to take care of it in the future, life and death are fate, I have to try how far I can go with my spine straightened - this disease, I'm afraid it won't be cured until death. ”

Doctor Zhou was speechless, his face was red, his palms and foreheads were covered with hot sweat, and he subconsciously touched his back, as if he felt that the bones that supported him were no longer there. Yan Liwu put away the corner of his lips and sneered, turned around indifferently, and walked out of the Imperial Medical Hall without looking back.

Because I believe that I will rely on it, because I am worried that the prescription will go wrong, I specially show it to the person who thinks it is credible, but I didn't expect everything to be useless, and in the end, the person who believed in it didn't even dare to prove her innocence, but a stranger who had no contact with him was supporting justice.

Yan Liwu didn't know if there was still Qingming in this place that was originally built to treat diseases and save people, and he walked blankly with frustration and grievances, and crashed into someone's arms in a trance.

"It's okay, it's not your fault, I trust you."

The gentle and calm voice is warmer than the spring breeze, even if it is so light that it cannot be heard by a third person, it still lingers in the ears of Yan Liyu very clearly, and the heart frozen by the hot and cold world thaws in an instant.
