The Emperor of Japan took elixirs, but the alchemist and liar came from nowhere. One look at his complexion revealed that he was poisoned by various metals.
Bai Song knew something about elixirs, and knew that the ancient theory of elixirs was to purify various substances by mixing various herbs and minerals, and that the dross could be removed and the essence could be obtained by refining elixirs.
Real alchemy requires the complete elimination of various toxic substances in the elixir, so that it can achieve medicinal effects that ordinary decoctions cannot.
This theory sounds reasonable, but it is just a beautiful idea.
With current science and technology, how is it possible to completely eliminate the toxicity of elixirs as the alchemist said?
Taking elixirs is taking poison.
As early as the Tang Dynasty, I heard people talking about elixirs, but I didn't expect that I would actually come into contact with patients who took elixirs in Japan.
Bai Song looked at the emperor. Although he was depressed, he became energetic the moment he mentioned the elixir.
Obviously, this emperor believed in elixirs.
Bai Song was not stupid enough to refute directly, but symbolically felt the emperor's pulse and inquired.
After a simple consultation, Bai Song already had an understanding of the emperor's situation.
The most common poisoning symptom caused by ancient alchemy was lead.
This emperor is no exception. If it is discovered early, you can take some vitamin C medicines with your diet to help detoxify.
But the other party has been too deeply poisoned, and ordinary treatment methods have no effect at all.
After the examination, Bai Song explained the situation to the emperor. He needed a day to prepare and would come back to treat the patient early tomorrow morning.
After a lot of trouble, Bai Song and others left the palace.
The news that Bai Song was going to treat the emperor quickly reached the ears of interested people.
The emperor's illness was well known to everyone in Kyoto.
As early as a few years ago, there was news that the emperor would die soon. It was all because His Excellency Dong Huang took action and used a magical method to save the emperor's life.
The emperor's life was barely saved, but he was never cured.
Donghuang Pavilion's statement is that the current emperor is already a person who deserves to die, and he is alive because Donghuang Pavilion borrows the life span of heaven and earth to extend the emperor's life.
Everyone in the world firmly believes in this.
What Bai Song didn't expect was that by volunteering to treat the emperor's illness, he would once again touch the sensitive nerves of Donghuang Pavilion.
When the news reached Donghuang Pavilion, a group of people immediately started discussing.
"What on earth does the boy from the Tang Dynasty want to do? He is indifferent to Donghuang Pavilion's warning. It is simply not possible to continue like this. We must take more clear actions."
"Recently, there are too many things happening in Donghuang Pavilion that affect the public. This is not what we should do. If we continue to interfere like this, we will break the original rules."
"Yes, no one can break the rules we created ourselves."
"It's too early to discuss that."
"I don't care now, do we have to wait until what happened in the Qi Yuan happens again? If he really cured the emperor, wouldn't this be contrary to His Excellency Donghuang's words? Donghuang Pavilion never misses the opportunity."
"Hmph, we know the shortcomings of those pills better than anyone else. This is a toxicity that even His Excellency Donghuang cannot resolve. What can a mortal do?"
"Yes, unless you truly achieve immortality, there is no way to resolve the poison."
…
The next day, Bai Song arrived at the palace as promised.
He was alone today. Hearing that Bai Song was going to treat the emperor, the second prince and the eldest prince were guarding the gate of the palace at the same time.
Bai Song found that today's situation was different from usual. The two princes appeared at the same time without any communication. The only one looking at Bai Song was very wary.
Before entering the palace, the second prince asked Bai Song: "Are you sure you can cure your father's strange disease?"
Bai Song smiled: "It's not a complicated disease."
"Isn't it some incurable disease?"
The two princes exchanged glances, feeling incredible and a little excited at the same time.
Bai Song didn't say much to these two people and went straight to the palace.
There are specific drugs to treat lead poisoning.
Dimercaprol injection is very effective in stimulating the body to eliminate lead.
When Bai Song arrived in front of the emperor, he happened to see a man coming with a pill and wanted to give it to the emperor.
At this time, Bai Song stopped him: "This kind of elixir can no longer be taken."
The emperor was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked: "Why? My survival to this day is all due to it."
"This elixir conflicts with my medicine. While I am treating the emperor, the elixir must be stopped, otherwise it will not be effective."
"This..." The emperor seemed hesitant.
Bai Song did not force himself, and said calmly: "Elixirs are also miraculous medicines, and my medicine is not bad either. Why don't you, Your Majesty, also try my medicine? I believe there will be no problem if you stop using this elixir for a few days."
"
"It doesn't hurt to try."
The emperor pushed the elixir away. The person who brought it was still a little unwilling. Just as he was about to say something, the second prince who followed him scolded him: "Why don't you back down?"
The man finally left slowly, looked back at Bai Song, and left in a hurry.
Soon, everything that happened around the emperor was known to Donghuang Pavilion.
One person was holding the returned elixir and fell into deep thought.
"Don't worry, it won't be a big deal if you stop for a while."
At this moment, Bai Song had already taken out his own medicine.
Seeing what Bai Song was holding, the two princes became nervous, stared at Bai Song and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"This is a syringe. If you don't understand it, don't be surprised. If it weren't for treating the Emperor, I would be reluctant to take out such a good thing."
"syringe?"
The two people were suspicious.
Looking at the expressions of these two people, Bai Song suddenly thought of Xiang'er.
The first time I met Xiang'er was the first time I used a syringe in this world.
Unexpectedly, seven years have passed in the blink of an eye.
After some explanations, Bai Song made everyone understand the principle of the syringe, and then he injected the emperor with peace of mind.
"Your Majesty, in the next few days, you will need an injection every day, and you must not take any pills."
After saying that, Bai Song gave some more instructions, clapped his hands and turned to leave.
The treatment lasted no more than a minute, and both princes were a little stunned.
"That's it?"
Bai Song replied matter-of-factly: "Okay."
"Father, what do you think?" The eldest prince turned around and asked.
Before the emperor spoke, Bai Song waved his hand: "How can it take effect so quickly? It will take a few days for the effect to take effect."
With that said, Bai Song pushed the two of them away and finally left.
The first day is just the beginning, and it is undoubtedly a torment for those who care about it.
No one knew what the final result would be. The shortcomings that were deemed incurable by Donghuang Pavilion were not taken seriously by the envoys of the Tang Dynasty.
Many people are concerned about the emperor's condition and are asked about it every day.
Two days later, the emperor's body changed and he began to suffer from diarrhea.
But this kind of diarrhea did not cause the emperor any discomfort, but as time went by, he gradually felt that his body became much more relaxed.
