The emperor's understanding of medical science was only partly influenced by the Queen Mother's illness.

He had never heard of what Gu Jinzhi said, so naturally he couldn't tell whether she was knowledgeable or just nonsense.

He looked at the old man of the Gu family.

Mr. Gu's demeanor has returned to normal, looking detached from the world, showing no joy or sorrow.

"Miss Gu, please elaborate." The emperor could only turn to Gu Jinzhi.

"The Queen Mother has been coughing for a long time and often has dull pain in her chest and ribs, right?" Gu Jinzhi asked.

When she asked questions, she was treating the family members of ordinary patients, and her tone showed no reverence for the monarch.

The emperor was also greatly moved by her question, and nodded like crazy: "Exactly!"

The queen mother often said that her chest and ribs hurt from time to time.

However, every doctor who made a dialectical diagnosis never mentioned this secret. It was not until the emperor asked why he had dull pain in his chest and ribs that they said it was caused by a long cough.

What they mean is that the pain in the chest and ribs is caused by coughing for a long time.

What Gu Jinzhi clearly meant was that chest and rib pain was the cause of the chronic cough, not the result.

This dialectic shocked the emperor.

This is something that has never been said before.

Have you finally hit the mark and found the cause of your mother's illness?

These days, seeing his mother who gave birth to him become so ill, the emperor's heart has always been on his mind, and he has to muster up his energy every day to deal with important events in the court, and he is exhausted both mentally and physically.

People say that one who is ill for a long time has no filial son, but the emperor disagrees.

"...all the internal organs make people cough. Doctors in the past have gone astray, thinking that the lungs are the root cause of cough. If you want to conquer its master, you must first find the cause. This is what the Nei Jing says, and it is correct. But the cause of the disease

If you search for the wrong medicine, the medicine will not be suitable for the disease, and it will not be cured for a long time." Gu Jinzhi said slowly, "In my humble opinion, the Queen Mother's disease is not in the lungs, but in the liver."

The emperor didn't know what to say.

Liver cough?

He had never heard of it.

In the past eighteen months, he had visited countless doctors for his mother, and all the causes of the disease were explained. No one mentioned liver injury.

The emperor was deep in thought and did not answer.

Gu Jinzhi looked at him.

He nodded slightly and motioned for Gu Jinzhi to continue speaking.

"The liver governs dispersion and regulates emotions. When the Queen Mother contracted the disease, it should be due to the uneven cold and heat in the hot summer that the dispersion lost its control. Also, because she encountered extremely difficult things at that time, her emotions were not controlled, and she was depressed and even stagnation of liver qi.

There is a saying that the liver belongs to wood and the lungs belong to metal. Liver wood is the punishment of metal, so liver heat will damage the lungs and fluids." Gu Jinzhi said again.

The expression on the emperor's face changed every moment as she spoke.

Some were surprised, some agreed, or delighted, all of them were seen by Gu Jinzhi and Mr. Gu.

"That's right." Finally, the emperor sighed, "Before the onset of the disease, the Queen Mother did have something... very sad. Because I and the Queen Mother never thought that depression might be the cause, so we didn't mention it to any doctor, including

Gu Guogong. And Miss Gu actually said it straight away, which shows that you are well aware of the pathology. I believe in you and only you! You must cure the Queen Mother's disease!"

The words "I only believe in you" made Mr. Gu have mixed feelings in his heart.

There was finally a rare smile on his face.

"Women of the people will do their best!" Gu Jinzhi replied.

The emperor couldn't wait any longer and asked Gu Jinzhi to make a prescription quickly.

Gu Jinzhi said yes again.

The eunuch beside the emperor carried a small Kang table filled with pens, ink, paper and inkstones.

Gu Jinzhi first saluted the emperor, then sat down and began to think about the recipe carefully.

"Gu Guogong, your granddaughter is better than the old!" Although he had not taken the medicine yet, the emperor had already begun to praise Gu Jinzhi without hesitation in words of praise.

Gu Shifei also laughed and said: "I am also very happy! With the blessing of my ancestors, it took several generations for a child like this to be born. He has some talent!"

"It's not a talent!" the emperor said, "it's a talent, and it really is a talent! When my mother's illness is cured, Duke Gu will tell me how you raised Miss Gu. I'm very curious."

Mr. Gu said respectfully, "Yes."

Over there, Gu Jinzhi had already written the prescription. He got up in person and handed it over to the emperor for his review.

The emperor also did not understand medical science.

He said to the eunuch beside him: "Go and call Qin Wei."

Qin Weisi is now the head of the Taiyuan Hospital, and has been on night duty in the Taiyuan Hospital these days.

The eunuch said and ran out in a hurry.

The emperor showed the recipe to Mr. Gu again: "Gu Guogong, please take a look at it to see if it is safe."

Mr. Gu took it with both hands and looked at it under the light.

"Imperata root, hemp seeds, almonds, indigo naturalis, artemisia..." Mr. Gu looked at them one by one. They were all medicines for clearing and calming the liver.

After he finished reading it, he wanted to tell the emperor that there was no anti-18 disease in this prescription and he could take the medicine with peace of mind.

Gu Jinzhi opened his mouth and explained what His Majesty had just said: "...the daughter of the people taught her the skills of her grandfather, but she never succeeded. If the grandfather had not cleared the lungs and cleared the lungs, but it was useless, the women of the people would not dare to say that it was the liver."

Ji. My grandfather opened the way, and the daughter of the people picked up the lost things, but she received such praise from your majesty, which the women of the people cannot afford."

The emperor laughed when she said it.

She seemed to be afraid that His Majesty would blame her grandfather for his inability to treat illnesses.

"What Miss Gu said is true. My words were inappropriate!" The emperor laughed and was in a good mood.

Mr. Gu wiped his sweat secretly. This child actually made the emperor admit that he was at fault...

She is really not afraid of things!

Did you know that being with the emperor is like being with a tiger, how can you criticize the emperor so easily? The emperor praises you, just accept it, why do you have to rectify your grandfather's name?

Although he blamed Gu Jinzhi, Mr. Gu felt extremely warm in his heart.

The warm current flows through all the limbs, and on a cold winter day, it feels like a spring breeze blowing into my heart.

Qin Weisi walked in at this moment.

He first knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor, shouting long live.

"Take a look at this prescription. Is there anything wrong with it?" The emperor handed the prescription to Qin Weisi again.

Qin Weisi quickly got up, took the prescription and looked at it carefully.

This is a prescription for clearing the liver. I don’t know who it is for. The prescription is correct and the medicine is appropriate. It can be taken safely.

"Your Majesty," Qin Weisi asked with some confusion while holding the prescription, "Which master is suffering from poor liver qi?"

He also said it cleanses the liver.

The emperor said: "This is the prescription that Miss Gu prescribed to the Queen Mother. Since you also said it is for treating poor liver qi, it must be good. You can grab the medicine yourself, boil it, and send it in."

Before Qin Weisi came in, he heard the emperor say "My words are inappropriate" at the door and laughed. At that time, he almost fell down and was shocked: Who can make the emperor laugh? He also laughed at himself and said that the emperor's words were inappropriate.

of?

Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Gu Shifei.

What Qin Weisi was able to do in the Taiyuan Hospital was not only his medical skills, but also his ability to observe people's emotions. Under such circumstances, how could he not know that the emperor was satisfied with the prescription?

Although he didn't understand why the emperor was so satisfied.

None of this matters.

The important thing is that the emperor said that this was the prescription prescribed by Miss Gu to the Queen Mother, and he smiled so heartily. He naturally recognized this prescription.

Even if Qin Weisi had doubts in his heart, he would not dare to reveal even a single word.

He glanced out of the corner of his eye again and vaguely saw a corner girl.

He hurriedly said yes. Then he kowtowed to the emperor and hurried to grab the medicine.

While Qin Weisi was waiting for the medicine to be prepared, the emperor asked Gu Jinzhi many questions about the Queen Mother's condition.

For example, Mr. Gu and several other doctors gave the Queen Mother some relief, but the disease relapsed a few days later. What was the reason?

"Although the Queen Mother's illness is not caused by the lungs, coughing for a long time damages the lungs, making the disease worse, and the lung yin is also damaged." Gu Jinzhi explained to the emperor carefully, "Ordinary people preconceptionally think that it is a cough.

Lung qi damage. The lungs are delicate organs, and the Queen Mother did indeed damage her lungs because of her long-term cough.

Your Majesty, you see, most of the coughs are caused by the lungs, and the Queen Mother's long coughing has damaged the lungs. Putting the cart before the horse, who else can doubt other aspects besides the lungs? Naturally, they all treated it by clearing the lungs. The lungs were cured.

The cough was temporarily suppressed.

However, the liver heat was not removed and the cause of the disease was not eliminated. Within a few days, the cough returned and the lungs were injured again. The cycle continued like this, leading the Queen Mother's illness to go astray."

The emperor couldn't help but nod after hearing this.

Gu Jinzhi's explanation was understandable even to people who were not familiar with medical science.

It was because the first imperial doctor was so stupid that he treated the Queen Mother's liver-heat damage to the lungs as wind-cold. As a result, the Queen Mother kept coughing, which further damaged the lungs.

The lungs are indeed diseased, so coughing is generally caused by lung injury. Who in the normal world would think of other methods?

"It was all quack doctors who misled the Queen Mother!" the emperor said, "I will never spare him lightly."

Then someone will be asked to find out who treated the Queen Mother's liver fever as wind cold.

Gu Jinzhi smiled and persuaded him: "Your Majesty, why don't you wait until the Queen Mother takes the medicine and really gets better and confirms my words before punishing the imperial doctor?"

When the Queen Mother is well and Her Majesty is in a better mood, punishing the Imperial Doctor will probably be a last thing and may be forgotten soon. Mr. Gu glanced at Gu Jinzhi, with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.

The Queen Mother suddenly coughed again in the inner hall.

The emperor, Mr. Gu, and Gu Jinzhi went in to serve.

About two-quarters of an hour later, Qin Weisi personally brought the medicine.

The Queen Mother drank it while it was hot.

The medicine is not a panacea, and it did not work for a while.

The Queen Mother coughed intermittently, and she had no strength left. She did not fall asleep until the third watch of the night.

His Majesty returned to his bedroom, and Gu Jinzhi and Mr. Gu also went to sleep.

The next day, His Majesty only left Gu Jinzhi to take care of the Queen Mother and sent Mr. Gu home. The two miracle doctors invited from Huguang were also sent out of the palace.

The imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital got up early and knelt at the entrance of Kunning Palace. The emperor actually sent them to the Imperial Hospital. They did not need to consult the Queen Mother this morning. He only asked them to be on call at the Imperial Hospital at any time and would only call them when there was an order.

Everyone is confused.

Hearing that Qin Weisi had entered the Kunning Palace last night, the imperial doctors asked one after another: "Sir, where did you invite the miracle doctor from? Or is Gu Guogong serving in the Kunning Palace?"

Qin Weisi went through what happened last night carefully in his mind.

Before he entered, he heard the emperor's apology and was shocked to the point of feeling unbalanced. Then the emperor laughed again. Finally, he gave him a prescription for treating liver fever and asked him to grab some medicine and make a decoction.

He kept his head lowered and vaguely saw Gu Shifei and a girl...

He still remembered His Majesty saying: Miss Gu...

The more Qin Weisi thought about it, the more he felt that something was a little strange.

For the Queen Mother's illness, use a liver-clearing prescription...

Is this possible?

Qin Weisi wanted to go see the Queen Mother, but unfortunately, Her Majesty said that the Queen Mother had to rest and they could no longer enter Kunning Palace.
