Chapter 12: Quacks?

When Ma Jing saw the so-called good doctor from a famous family that Ye Feng brought in, he almost couldn't believe his eyes.

He never thought that this famous doctor in Ye Feng's mouth would be such a young girl!

He turned his head to look at Imperial Physician Jian and his disciples who were standing aside, and saw that they were also full of surprise, which was obviously unexpected.

Imperial Doctor Jian has served in the palace for many years, and after returning to Lanzhou, he became famous, and heard that Ye Feng brought a famous doctor to treat Ma Daren's poisoning, so he hurriedly brought his disciples to see where the divine doctor came from and what kind of tricks he had.

But now in front of him was only a young girl in her twenties, how high could her medical skills be, could she be even more powerful than herself? He was stunned for a moment in surprise and suspicion.

Ma Jing looked at Ye Feng again, could it be that he was joking with himself?

The expression on Ye Feng's face was very calm, and he seemed to be full of confidence in this girl, not like he was joking.

Judging from the previous rumors about Ye Feng, I don't think he should be a nonsense person, maybe this girl really has some skills?

Ma Jing sighed, held on to a glimmer of hope, closed her eyes and lay on the bed, letting the girl check for herself.

Of course, this girl is Cheng Nianzhen, she examined Ma Jing very carefully, in addition to probing the pulse, she also tested her body temperature, looked at her tongue, and even pressed and checked Ma Jing's internal organs inch by inch, probed the acupoints with silver needles, and worked for more than half an hour before and after, looking decent, which made Ma Jing have some hope in her heart.

After the examination, Cheng Nianzhen did not speak, but sat in front of the bed and meditated for a while, her puzzled expression made Ma Jing's heart instantly feel like falling into an ice cellar.

He had a pale face, and asked in a trembling voice: "Aunt, girl, do you see this poison, is it very powerful?"

Cheng Nianzhen shook his head and turned his head to look at Imperial Doctor Jian who was standing aside: "Your disease is not difficult to treat, I'm just wondering, such a simple disease, why do some people keep saying that it is poisoned?"

These words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and all the people in the room were shocked when they heard it, what? Ma Jing was not poisoned!

I don't know why, only Ye Feng didn't show surprise among the people in the room, but an imperceptible smile appeared on his face.

Imperial Physician Jian's face was full of shock and confusion, and he couldn't help but ask, "What does the girl mean is that Master Ma is not actually poisoned, but is old and decrepit?"

Cheng Nianzhen nodded without even thinking about it: "That's right." ”

Imperial Physician Jian was furious at this time, you must know that for a doctor, especially for a person of such prestige and status as him, misjudging the illness is like smashing a signboard, and in the future, he will be infamous, and he will never have to eat this bowl of rice again.

He laughed angrily at this time and asked, "Hehe, if the old man is mistaken, I don't know what evidence the girl has, and what is her opinion?"

Cheng Nianzhen lowered his head and said, "Master Ma has a headache and cough, fever and chills, a sore throat and ulcers in the mouth, an enlarged spleen and liver, a painful feeling in the abdomen, vomiting and diarrhea, unable to eat, and multiple rashes on his body, is this a symptom?"

Imperial Physician Jian nodded: "Yes, that's exactly the case. ”

He was shocked in his heart, this little girl looked inconspicuous, but in this short period of time, just an ordinary examination, Ma Jing's symptoms could be explained clearly, it seemed that she was not talking nonsense.

Cheng Nianzhen raised his head and looked at Imperial Physician Jian: "Mr. Jian has been in the palace for many years and has read medical books, could it be that these symptoms only think of poisoning?"

Imperial Physician Jian squinted his eyes and thought about it carefully, and suddenly his eyes flashed, could it be......

But he was still unwilling, and said loudly: "Lord Ma's tongue is black, his anus is swollen, and there is bloody stool, isn't it caused by poisoning?"

Cheng Nianzhen shook his head: "There are many reasons for the blackening of the tongue coating, and all kinds of miscellaneous diseases may occur from external and internal injuries, so how can we generalize? As for the swelling of the anus and bloody stools, how can the bloody stools not swell after long-term diarrhea? Is it only poisoning that causes bloody stools?"

Imperial Physician Jian was speechless when asked, and was speechless for a while.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he already understood what kind of illness Cheng Nianzhen was talking about.

Cheng Nianzhen continued: "Poisoned people must have red eyes and tinnitus, mental trance, and even hallucinations, throat edema, and difficulty breathing. From this I can conclude that he was not poisoned. ”

Hearing that it was not poisoning, Ma Jing's spirits were greatly lifted, his eyebrows were raised with joy, and he asked repeatedly: "Then what disease am I suffering from?"

Cheng Nianzhen snorted and said, "Don't worry, Lord Ma, your patient is just typhoid fever." ”

When it came to typhoid fever, everyone in the room was stunned.

Typhoid fever was once raging in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and everywhere the epidemic went, corpses were everywhere, and everyone heard about it. Later, the famous Zhang Zhongjing collected the heads of a hundred schools, wrote books and said, and sorted out the method of treating typhoid fever, and later the Jin Dynasty imperial physician ordered Wang Shuhe to sort out and edit, and became the book "Treatise on Typhoid Fever".

Since then, this book has been widely circulated among the people, and has been respected by doctors, and has become a must-read medical book for those who study medical skills, and Zhang Zhongjing has also been regarded as the "saint of medical prescriptions" by later generations. And typhoid fever, by the time of the Ming Dynasty, there had not been a major epidemic for many years, so it was gradually forgotten by people.

Now it is said that Ma Jing is suffering from typhoid fever, and everyone is taken aback.

Cheng Nianzhen rebuked Imperial Physician Jian: "The Three Yang Sutras are mostly hot syndromes and real symptoms, and the Three Yin Sutras are mostly cold symptoms and deficiency symptoms, such a basic truth, it is impossible to diagnose them in the pulse? All the symptoms on Master Ma are typical symptoms of typhoid fever, how can Mr. Jian's medical skills be so careless?"

Imperial Physician Jian said with a little snort: "The disease of typhoid fever has not appeared for many years, and I thought that there was no such disease in the world, so I didn't expect it to ......."

Cheng Nianzhen said: "The disease of typhoid fever is mostly from the mouth, unclean drinking water and food, are susceptible to infection, especially in the northwest, the milk of cattle and sheep is not boiled is easy to become the source of the disease, this disease is more important to prevent than cure, Ma must also be not careful about the diet to contract this disease, right?"

Ma Jing nodded again and again and said, "Exactly, exactly, because I was thirsty when I went out on patrol before, I once drank the milk offered by the herdsmen on the outskirts of the city. ”

It can be seen that what Cheng Nianzhen said is true, and everyone is convinced of her diagnosis.

Cheng Nianzhen sighed and said: "There are more than 10 million diseases in the world, the so-called nonsense that there are no diseases, quacks in the world are really misleading." ”

Imperial Physician Jian bowed his head and was silent, his face was ashamed, and the disciples around him couldn't help but stand up and shout loudly when they saw the insult to the master, and asked: "Who are you, dare to boast like this, forgive you for being a little girl, what is your identity, and dare to insult the family teacher?

Cheng Nianzhen didn't even look at him, but said lightly: "The little woman really doesn't have any identity, but when it comes to medical skills, I have been reciting medical books since I was six or seven years old, and I have learned a lot from my father's side over the years." After all, many things in this world require talent, not necessarily when you are old. ”

This made the disciple furious, and asked angrily, "Who is your father?"

Ye Feng on the side smiled and said, "This girl's father is the world-famous divine doctor Cheng Sansi. ”

There was silence in the room.

Cheng Sansi is a miracle doctor in the world, and it is said that half of the doctors in the Tai Hospital have worshiped him, and they have benefited from his guidance for life.

Over the years, his whereabouts have been erratic, and the dragon has not seen the end, but he has boasted that he has a daughter, who is regarded as the pearl of his palm, and is a medical genius.

Unexpectedly, the rumored Miss Cheng, who is a medical wizard, is the little girl in front of her who looks young and inconspicuous!

No one dared to question her words, Ma Jing's eyes flashed with joy, since she was the daughter of a world-famous divine doctor who diagnosed and treated herself, it was expected that there would be no problem.

Cheng Nianzhen stood up at this time and said to Ma Jing: "Lord Ma, please rest first, the little woman will go down to prescribe medicine, and she will definitely be able to cure the disease." ”

Ma Jing was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth when he heard it, and thanked him repeatedly.

So Cheng Nianzhen turned around and ignored Imperial Physician Jian and his disciples, and walked out directly. Behind her, Ye Feng and the two righteous brothers also followed.

The moment he went out, Ye Feng quietly glanced back at Imperial Physician Jian, the old man looked dejected, but for some reason, Ye Feng felt that his face felt a sense of relief.

After walking out of the Ma Mansion and about to return to the inn, Zhang Fatzi shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect that the famous imperial doctor would have such a quack doctor, it's really harmful!"

Xie Zhenliang beside him also nodded and sighed: "If it weren't for Miss Cheng's superb medical skills, wouldn't Master Ma have been killed by a quack doctor?"

At this time, Cheng Nianzhen, who was walking in front, suddenly laughed with a "poof".

Ye Feng turned his head to look at the two righteous brothers with inexplicable expressions, and asked, "Do you really believe that Master Ma Jingma has typhoid fever?"

The two righteous brothers were stunned: "What?

Cheng Nianzhen laughed softly: "Master Ma is obviously poisoned, but anyone with some medical skills will know it at the first diagnosis, and there is nothing suspicious." ”

Zhang Fatzi couldn't help but ask: "Then you still have evidence just now, and you have to say that he has typhoid fever?"

Cheng Nianzhen smiled: "I'm just talking nonsense based on his symptoms." ”

Zhang Fatzi and Xie Zhenliang glanced at each other, feeling even more confused: "But why do you say that?"

At this time, Ye Feng on the side said: "Of course I asked Miss Cheng to say so. ”

He looked at the two righteous brothers with blank faces, and said: "Master Ma was poisoned, but it is not fatal, he has been sick for half a month, and the famous Imperial Doctor Jian has not been able to heal, don't you think it's a little strange?"

Zhang Fatzi and Xie Zhenliang nodded, but they were still at a loss, what does this have to do with Miss Cheng lying?

Cheng Nianzhen said: "Actually, Ma Jingzhong's poison is not complicated, it is impossible to delay it for so long with Imperial Doctor Jian's medical skills and not be able to detoxify, but as a doctor, why does he not hesitate to smash his own signboard and not want to detoxify Master Ma?"

Xie Zhenliang seemed to understand a little: "There must be someone behind him who instructed or threatened him, and this person must have something to do with poisoning!"

Ye Feng nodded and said: "Yes, I also have some doubts about him, so I deliberately discussed this strategy with Miss Cheng in advance, and deliberately said that Master Ma was not poisoned, but only suffered from other diseases, so that the people behind the scenes must think that Miss Cheng's young medical skills are not perfect, so she misdiagnosed the condition." ”

Cheng Nianzhen snorted at this time, obviously not very satisfied with this.

Xie Zhenliang also nodded when he heard this: "In this way, the person behind the scenes will think that he has a plan, and when he is the most proud, he will naturally relax his vigilance against us, and the easier it will be for us to find out who is the real culprit of poisoning." ”

Ye Feng said: "Yes, just now Miss Cheng deliberately used words to provoke Imperial Doctor Jian, but he knew that Ma Jing was indeed poisoned, but he would rather endure the insult than expose it, and when we went out, he still had a sense of relief on his face, and he seemed to be more afraid that we could detoxify Ma Jing than his reputation, so he must have something more precious than fame being held hostage." ”

Zhang Fatzi asked, "Then why don't you just arrest him and ask him to understand?"

Ye Feng glanced at him: "Do you know who the person behind it is? How powerful is it? If you arrest Imperial Doctor Jian rashly, you will definitely startle the snake, and I am afraid that there will be no chance to find out the truth." ”

Zhang Fatzi thought about it: "Then what should I do next?"

Ye Feng said: "Don't worry, I believe they can't wait to jump out by themselves." With that, he pointed behind them.

Zhang Fatzi looked back and suddenly understood that the person who had been following them was gone.

No wonder Ye Feng actually talked to them about the truth just now on the street, and he was not afraid that the wall would have ears.

Since Ye Feng was sure that the person who was following them was King Su's subordinates, it was estimated that at this moment, King Su had already received the secret report about the matter just now, and I believe that he would react soon.

Ye Feng smiled meaningfully, but what kind of reaction would His Royal Highness King Su make?
