Chapter 92: The matter of immortals is related to who is the second of Great Qin!
Xia Wuhe looked at Li Sizhao and others expectantly, he had been obsessed with medical skills all his life, and he never paid attention to the affairs of the court, and he didn't care who Fusu Huhai was Qin II.
Anyway, he is the descendant of the divine doctor Bian Que, and he has the great merit of saving the first emperor, and he is also a medical officer, who is not involved in court disputes, and his status is originally transcendent.
After all, who wants to offend a famous doctor for no reason?
Not only will they not be offended, but they will also try their best to do what they like.
Xia Wu is not greedy for power, nor is he fighting in court, and his only pursuit is medical skills.
And his medical skills are not unique in the world, nor are they far away, and the reason is precisely because he inherited Bian Que's pulse diagnosis technique.
Bian Que was a doctor of the Warring States Period, and he created the so-called Four Diagnosis Method, that is, looking, hearing, asking and cutting, which is still in use more than 2,000 years later.
The cut in the four diagnosis methods is the pulse cut, which is the essence of the four diagnosis methods. Bian Que is also known as the ancestor of pulse diagnosis.
However, Bian Que is not a person, just like the leader of the Mo family, Juzi, who inherits the most core inheritance, who is called this title.
So speaking of which, Xia Wuhe is actually a contemporary Bian Que. It's just that the Qin Yue people who were previously called Bian Que were killed by the Qin State medical officials at that time, and Xia Wuhe not only inherited Bian Que's four diagnosis methods, but also learned the accumulation of the Qin Palace's medical officials of the past dynasties, Bian Que and the Qin medical officials of the past dynasties were his ancestors.
Fang Cai Xia Wuhe used the method of cutting the pulse passed by Bian Que to investigate the pulse of the first emperor. Judging from the pulse, the pulse of the First Emperor is extremely weak, and his eyes are godless and there is no reaction, which is a typical disease of detachment.
And the disease of detachment, according to what Xia Wuji has learned and observed, most of the pulses will gradually weaken and slow down, and eventually disappear, and the person will be dead at this time.
Maybe it's because the soul is scattered and can't return, Xia Wuhe can only speculate.
Of course, if it is according to the scientific theory of later generations, Shentuo is a deep coma. At this time, the person has either lost the ability to breathe on his own, or the breathing is too weak, causing the brain to start a lack of oxygen. As the pulse weakens, the lack of oxygen can also become severe and eventually lead to brain death.
Even in later generations, deep coma is an extremely dangerous situation, and it is necessary to start first aid immediately, and try to avoid the consequences of brain death by using hyperbaric oxygen, cardiac injections, and vasopressors.
These means naturally could not have been possessed by Qin Shi, so Xia Wuhe said very decisively, God is out, only waiting for death.
And the First Emperor is also a god disease, but his pulse is extremely firm, although weak, but full of vitality.
This is what makes Xia Wu curious and looking forward to it.
This must be a consequence of the use of drugs.
However, although there were several doctors in the Qin Palace, the only medical officer and the only one qualified to give medicine to the First Emperor was Xia Wuhe.
If he is not there, who would dare to take medicine from the First Emperor?
Seeing that Li Si, Zhao Gao, and even Wei Wei and the three of them were all at a loss, Xia Wuhe looked at the attendants on the side.
"Have you ever given medicine to the First Emperor?" He spoke eagerly.
"The slaves have never given medicine to the First Emperor." Several attendants shook their heads in a hurry.
"But......" One of the chamberlains seemed to remember something, and he thought for himself.
"But what?" Xia Wuhe asked.
"Slave heard," the chamberlain knelt beside the First Emperor's soft couch and spoke uncertainly, "When the First Emperor was fasting and praying in the quiet room today, it seems that he had taken the medicinal residue that Gongzi Fusu brought back from Yunmeng Mountain. ”
"Dregs?" Xia Wuhe was stunned suddenly.
He ignored the affairs of the court, and did not pay attention to what Fusu brought with him when he returned from Chuchu.
And since the First Emperor believed that Fusu was doing something of deception, and what he brought back was medicine residue instead of medicine, he naturally did not specifically call Xia Wuhe to identify it.
And Li Si and Zhao Gao's faces suddenly froze.
The First Emperor ate the medicine residue brought back by Fusu and vomited blood, and they had heard it from the chamberlain when they were summoned by the First Emperor before.
At that time, the two only thought it was God's help. It is a well-known fact that the First Emperor is about to die, and what the two are seeking is precisely to determine Hu Hai as Qin II before the death of the First Emperor.
Originally, Hu Hai was unfavorable, and the two of them were already a little worried, but they didn't expect the news that the First Emperor vomited blood and fainted suddenly, and he still took the so-called medicine left by the heavenly people brought back by Fusu!
Isn't this the fact that he wants to poison his father?
Unexpectedly, Xia Wuhe actually said that the First Emperor had entered the elixir!
It was this that made the two both confused and flustered.
The two of them didn't care about what Fusu brought back, and the First Emperor didn't show them to them.
It's just a general idea, it's just some medicine residue.
What does a little dregs of medicine have to do with elixir?
However, if Fusu didn't lie, then his dregs were left behind by the celestials.
If it is left by heaven and man, then it has a bit of a miraculous effect, and it seems to be reasonable.
The two glanced at each other, and at the same time saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.
was originally a natural thing, but now it is full of waves, and the mood of the two is also ups and downs.
It's all thanks to this so-called immortal celestial!
Why is there such a thing in the world!
"What kind of dregs?" Xia Wuhe didn't know what Li Si Zhao Gao was thinking, and he spoke expectantly.
"The slaves don't know much, and it wasn't the slaves who were waiting to be called outside the quiet at that time." The chamberlain has always been familiar with Xia Wuhe, after all, Xia Wuhe is probably the only man who has all the parts on his body, but can enter the palace of the First Emperor, and he has always been the chamberlain to invite.
With Xia Wuhe in front of him, the attendants were obviously much more at ease, and one of the attendants spoke diligently: "The slaves just heard that the First Emperor dipped his fingers in a little of the herbs brought back by the eldest son Fusu and the general Meng Tian from Yunmeng Mountain, and then vomited blood and fainted for a moment. ”
"Herbs? Vomiting blood and fainting? Xia Wuhe frowned.
Although the medical skills of the Qin period have developed to the stage of decoction, the people at this time are heavy on medicinal stones and light on plants and trees. In the Han Dynasty, after the legend of Shennong's tasting of herbs, herbal medicine was on the hall of elegance.
For example, the best antidote is realgar, which is a sulfide mineral.
The biggest advantage of mineral medicine over herbal medicine is that the results are relatively fast, because the toxicity of minerals is far greater than that of plants and trees, and the treatment of diseases depends on fighting poison with poison. If you are bitten by a snake and eat realgar, you will either get better immediately, or you will die immediately.
Therefore, during the Warring States Period, people said that they had excellent medical skills, and they all praised the other party's life and death and flesh and bones, that is, the life and death people often said in later generations, and the flesh and bones showed that the effect was fast.
In the eyes of everyone, herbs are not as good as medicinal stones, which is a matter of course, that is, the world Bian Que Xia Wu also thinks so.
Not to mention herbs, even the best stone medicines, such as the purest realgar, can not be curative with just a little dip in the finger.
"So, maybe it's because my method of diagnosing the pulse is still inadequate." He shook his head slightly.
After all, the method of diagnosing the pulse has only been out for decades, and the famous "Bian Que Meets Cai Huangong" was written by Li Si's senior brother, Han Feizi.
After seeing Cai Huangong, Bian Que fled from Qin, and then became a medical officer of the Qin Palace, devoting himself to studying the four diagnosis methods, so that he had the technique of diagnosing the pulse. The technique of diagnosing the pulse is a fashionable and unreliable adjunct, and it is known that the four diagnosis methods are cut last.
Xia Wuhe did not dare to assert that there must be no error in his diagnosis, and in his opinion, there could never be such a miraculous herb and tree medicine in the world.
"I'm going to boil a dose of decoction to make the best of my manpower." He looked at the First Emperor like a dead man, sighed and replied.
……
Seeing Xia Wuhe walk out of the big tent, Li Si and Zhao Gao breathed a sigh of relief.
Today is really a day of ups and downs, and the two of them only feel that their hearts have been exhausted to the extreme.
Fusu and medicine were the key for the two to clear the way for Hu Hai to clear the way of Qin II.
Fortunately, Xia Wu is not sure.
Moreover, in the eyes of the two, if the elixir refined by the immortals and celestials can have this miraculous effect, it can be justified. However, a little medicine residue, and it is also a grass and wood medicine residue, should not be able to have such an anti-heaven effect.
Don't say that they don't believe it, including Fusu and Meng Tian, who brought this medicine back from thousands of miles, I'm afraid they won't believe it either.
The people of the Qin period were extremely simple and even realistic. Unlike the later generations, any thing can have any divinity, in the eyes of most people, the so-called immortals, but only the ability to live forever, although the celestial people have a little magical powers, but that is only caused by the blood of the gods, and they will not be omnipotent.
But obviously this is not the time to relax, Li Si and Zhao Gao glanced at each other again, and said in a deep voice: "Where is Xu Fu?" ”
A guard soldier replied at the door of the account: "Captain Baoting, the immortal envoy has arrived at the gate of the camp at this time, and is waiting for the summons!" ”
Xu Fu didn't know that the First Emperor had arrived at the Langya camp, and he went to the Langya Palace together under the guard of the guard sergeant, and then came to the camp.
Therefore, he arrived almost at the same time as the medical officer Xia Wuhe. It's just that since the First Emperor has fainted, the first person to enter the camp is of course the medical officer Xia Wuji.
"No need to summon." Li Si's face sank like water, and he waved his hand directly, "Escort him to Tingwei Prison and punish him for the crime of deceiving the First Emperor!" ”
"Wait!"
Wei Wei Qian suddenly spoke, his face was full of doubts, and he arched his hand to Li Si: "Ting Wei, why don't you summon Xu Fu?" ”
"Why are you calling?" As the prime minister, Li Si was not polite to Wei Wei, and he asked lightly.
Wei Weiqian didn't care, his lips moved slightly, as if he was organizing his language, and after a few breaths, he spoke: "Xu Fu was taught by heaven and man, and he found an immortal in the sea of Langya." ”
"If we order him to go to sea again at once," he said eagerly, "it may be too late to seek the elixir of immortality!" ”
Li Si's expression did not move at all, and he glanced at the First Emperor.
Xia Wuhe is a famous doctor in the world, and Li Si has no doubt about his judgment.
Since Xia Wuhe said that the First Emperor could not wake up and was just waiting for death, Li Si had no worries at all at this time.
He said lightly: "Even if what Xu Fu said is true, the immortals are at least a hundred miles away from Langya. ”
"A hundred miles into the sea, you need a big boat. Today, Xu Fusuo led nine giant boats and has no return, and the Great Qin Sailor is in Fusang, where to get another big boat? ”
Wei Wei was stunned.
Although he was dumbfounded, he also knew that what Li Si said was indeed a key issue.
In the Qin period, the navigation technology was still in the period of ignorance, and going to the sea purely relied on ships with many people, and was not afraid of death.
After all, in those years, I didn't even know about diseases such as sepsis, and although the sail had been invented, we still knew very little about the ocean current monsoon, let alone nautical charts and hydrological data, and there was not even a fixed route, only a general direction.
If there is a big boat, you can still rely on the fresh water carried by the big boat to find the location Xu Fu said on the sea. If there is no big boat, it will be an insurmountable moat for hundreds of miles.
"However, the First Emperor has come here, and it is impossible to save it without immortal medicine."
Wei Weiqian was obviously not willing to give up easily, and he tried to speak: "If you ask Xu Fu, since Xu Fu can return from the sea, perhaps, there is a way to go again." ”
Li Si raised his eyes and glanced at Wei Wei lightly: "Wei Wei wants to exercise the power of the First Emperor?" ”
Wei Wei's color changed suddenly, Li Si's words can be described as a heart, he is the commander of the Wei Wei Army, the Wei Wei Army is just the emperor's personal guard, and the royal inheritance has nothing to do with him.
How can it be said that he is ready to carry out the authority of the First Emperor?
He said angrily: "Why did Ting Wei say this? ”
"If you don't do the first emperor's business, why does Wei Wei insist on this matter?"
Li Si asked unceremoniously: "Earlier, we made a statement to the First Emperor, what if the immortals didn't come, what if Xu Fu lied, and what if Great Qin lost his trust, didn't Wei Wei hear it?" ”
"The matter of the immortals, heaven and man is related to who is the second of Great Qin!"
He continued to speak coldly: "Only the First Emperor can decide this matter!" ”
"However, the First Emperor is not awake, and the First Emperor previously wanted to pass on the throne of the eldest son Fusu!" Wei Wei argued with reason.
"I heard that the first emperor wanted to pass on the throne to the young son Hu Hai." Li Si spoke categorically.
"I only heard that the first emperor passed on the throne to the young son Hu Hai, and ordered the court to make an edict." Zhao Gao, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, and he glanced at Wei Wei.
Previously, the First Emperor was indeed preparing to pass on the throne to Hu Hai, but due to the matter of the immortals and the sudden return of Xu Fu, the First Emperor changed his mind.
However, it doesn't matter.
When the First Emperor changed his mind, he had already vomited blood and collapsed, and his voice was extremely small, which could only be heard by the three people who were nearby, Wei Wei, Li Si, and Zhao Gao.
And, of course, a couple of chamberlains.
But several of the chamberlains had been cut down by Zhao Gao's order before, and now the only ones who have the right to speak are the three of Wei Wei!
Moreover, although the First Emperor intended to pass on the throne to Fusu, however, he did not finish his words.
Although he tried to write Fusu's name on Wei Wei's armor, he only wrote one side.
This side can certainly be said to be the left half of the Fusu character, and it can also be said that it is the left half of Hu Hai.
The two are written in small seals, which are indeed very similar.
And Wei Weiqian was furious at this time, he looked at Li Si and Zhao Gao murderously, and there was a great tendency to directly draw his sword and kill the two directly.
However, Li Si and Zhao Gao were not afraid, the two looked at Wei Wei Qian condescendingly, and Li Si was the first to let out an angry roar.
"Karma, do you want to be overbearing?"
