Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 890, Emperor Hongzhi's Suspicion

"Remove the intestinal carbuncle?"

When everyone heard Zhang Zhigang's words, they couldn't help opening their eyes slightly.

"The intestines are inside the stomach. If you want to remove the intestinal ulcer, don't you have to disembowel the stomach?"

Liu Jian asked quickly.

"It's not that scary. It's just an opening in the abdomen, cut off the intestinal ulcer, and then sew up the wound."

Zhang Zhigang smiled and said: "This is a new research field of our Daming Medical College, the field of surgery, and the effect of curing diseases is achieved through surgery."

"Diseases like intestinal abscess had no way to be treated in the past, but they can be cured very successfully through surgery. Not long ago, we successfully cured an acute intestinal abscess through surgical operation and learning from intestinal abscess patient."

"The reason is actually very simple. The intestines with intestinal carbuncle are like the rotten skin and meat on our body. If they are not removed, they will continue to rot, and it will become more and more serious. , and affect other good skin and flesh."

"Cutting away the rotting meat wraps up the good meat and prevents it from deteriorating."

"The intestines with intestinal carbuncle are different from ordinary intestines. They are actually dispensable to our human body, and removing them will not affect our bodies."

"But this is also using a knife on the body. If the meat is cut, can it still be sewn?"

Li Dongyang also said anxiously, when he thought of using a knife on Emperor Hongzhi, he didn't even dare to think about it.

"Of course, the skin and muscles of the human body have a certain self-healing ability. We suture the wound with surgical thread, and then take reasonable care, and it will heal naturally."

"We conducted a lot of experiments during the Western Expedition. Many soldiers were even injured in the chest here, and have recovered through our surgery."

"This intestinal carbuncle is considered a minor operation. We have also conducted a lot of related research and have successfully done several cases."

Zhang Zhigang nodded solemnly and said.

There is really no limit to this medical technique. In the past, it was just a matter of feeling the pulse. Now, with the rise of new medicine, the field of surgery is also developing rapidly, and various new treatment methods have emerged.

"Is there no other treatment?"

Xie Qian thought for a while and asked.

"Other methods are treating the symptoms but not the root cause, and this nobleman's body has been delayed for too long. If the treatment is carried out now, there is still hope that he can gradually recover. If this continues, this chronic intestinal ulcer may occur at any time It will turn into an acute intestinal carbuncle."

"Even if it doesn't turn into an acute intestinal ulcer, judging from the current situation, it won't last long."

"The only way to do surgery is to remove the rotten intestinal abscess and restore your own digestive system. Only when your digestion gets better can you slowly increase your appetite and digest the nutrients that are useful to your body. Only then can I gradually get better and slowly regain my youth.”

Zhang Zhigang shook his head slightly, he has researched this aspect to this era, the highest level on the entire planet, and the research has been quite thorough.

"Surgery?"

Emperor Hongzhi's face was very ugly.

"It's only three or four years?"

The words of Zhang Zhigang echoed in Emperor Hongzhi's mind all the time. If he didn't learn about this intestinal ulcer, he would only be able to live for three or four years.

"Master, master!"

Xiao Jing yelled a few times in succession, seeing that Emperor Hongzhi was still in a daze, he also pushed lightly.

"Oh~"

Emperor Hongzhi came back to his senses, thought for a while and asked, "Professor Zhang, if there is an operation, will there be any risks?"

"How high is the success rate of this operation?"

"There are risks. At present, the field of surgery is a new field. Although we have conducted a lot of experiments and research, as well as some treatments, there are still risks in surgery."

"Once there is a risk during the operation, it is very likely to be life-threatening."

"In terms of the success rate, it is only about half at present, and our number of experiments is not enough. If we can have a large number of reasonable experiments, we still hope to increase it to more than [-]%."

Zhang Zhigang also nodded, and patiently and in detail told everyone about the risks and possible situations during the operation.

"Only half the success rate?"

"This is too low."

When Zhang Mao heard this, he couldn't help but said.

"There is no way. The field of surgery is our new research field. We don't have enough experience yet. We are currently exploring."

"Half of the success rate is already very good. You must know that in the past, there was no way to treat this intestinal carbuncle. The only way to suffer from intestinal carbuncle was to wait for death."

Zhang Zhigang said it very directly.

Although there are noble people in front of you, this kind of thing must be explained clearly. As for whether to perform surgery, it is naturally up to the noble people to decide.

"Thank you, Professor Zhang, I'm here to thank Professor Zhang, a big reward!"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly, thought about it and thanked him.

As soon as his words fell, Xiao Jing beside him also took out a stack of bank notes and put them in Zhang Zhigang's hands.

"I didn't do anything to help, it's not worth the effort."

Zhang Zhigang looked at the stack of bank notes, thought for a while and refused.

"No, you did me a great favor."

"I'll find you again later."

Emperor Hongzhi stood up, got up and walked outside.

He was in a bad mood, especially knowing that Zhang Zhigang believed that he could only live for three or four years at most, which would be the case for anyone.

He is also a person, and he also desires to live longer, not to mention that he is still an emperor, and there are many, many things that need him to do.

Jiangshan Sheji needs him to manage, and the prince Zhu Houzhao is still young and needs time to grow up. There are still many things in the Ming Dynasty that have not yet been arranged.

"Whoo~"

When he came outside, Emperor Hongzhi breathed heavily, looking at the blooming flowers and plants in front of him, Emperor Hongzhi was not happy at all.

"Your Majesty, don't listen to this person's one-sided words. Your Majesty will surely last forever."

Zhang Mao, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others also hurriedly followed. Liu Jian looked at Emperor Hongzhi's appearance, and naturally understood Emperor Hongzhi's mood at this time, and he also comforted him.

"Evergreen?"

"Who can last forever?"

"The emperor's long live, long live is shouted, can it really be long live?"

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and shook his head and said, "Emperors are human too, and they will grow old eventually, but I am only thirty-three now, and I am really not reconciled."

"Your Majesty, this is just his one-sided statement. The imperial physicians in the palace all said that His Majesty is fine and just needs constant recuperation."

Xie Qian also comforted him.

"Nursing?"

"Those imperial doctors in the palace seem to be quack doctors now, I wish I could kill them all."

When it comes to the imperial physician in the palace, Emperor Hongzhi rarely showed a murderous look.

These imperial doctors in the palace are all quack doctors, no one can diagnose that I have intestinal ulcers, and they can only prescribe some tonic and recuperation prescriptions, making me an old man in my thirties Same.

Looking at the guards around him, many of them are in their thirties, all of them are strong and ruddy, and they look like they are dying old people.

Hearing what Emperor Hongzhi said, everyone was silent. In matters related to the life of the emperor, it is unknown how many people have died since ancient times.

"Your Majesty, why don't we go to other medical clinics in the capital and listen to other doctors' opinions."

Zhang Mao thought about it and suggested.

"Well, that's fine!"

Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while and nodded, and looked at a few more to see what other doctors had to say.

Soon, Emperor Hongzhi and his party began to go to other famous medical centers in the capital.

The Hall of Rejuvenation in Beijing.

"Your nobleman, you should be suffering from intestinal ulcer."

Xia Yong from Huichuntang, who has always been a famous doctor in the capital, gave Emperor Hongzhi a diagnosis and said in the affirmative.

"Is there a cure for this intestinal carbuncle?"

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, his eyes lit up slightly. It seemed that the doctors outside were much more reliable than the imperial doctors in the palace. After visiting a few of them, they all diagnosed him as having an intestinal carbuncle.

"Intestinal abscess cannot be cured. In the past, we could only wait for death, but now the Affiliated Hospital of Daming Medical College can remove intestinal abscess through surgery. So far, several cases have been cured. You can go over there and have a look. .”

Xia Yong thought about it and said.

Traditional treatment methods have no way to cure intestinal abscess at all, and only surgical removal of intestinal abscess is the most effective radical cure.

"Thank you doctor, great reward!"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly, and ordered to return to the palace directly after leaving Huichun Hall.

Back in the palace, Emperor Hongzhi's expression was very ugly.

The palace has not been able to diagnose any serious illnesses, but when they go outside, they all say that they have intestinal ulcers, and they recommend going to the Affiliated Hospital of Daming Medical College to have intestinal ulcers removed through surgery.

Moreover, the doctors I saw outside said that his body should not take tonic, but should eat more coarse grains and eat more. Taking tonic will only make Emperor Hongzhi's health worse and worse.

"These quacks!"

Thinking of the imperial doctor in the palace, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but want to kill someone.

Even though he has a good temper, he still shows killing intent when it comes to matters related to his own life.

"All the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital are here."

After thinking about it, Emperor Hongzhi also ordered.

Zhang Mao, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and others were still by Emperor Hongzhi's side. At this time, each of them had rather ugly faces, and at the same time they were thinking about many things rapidly in their minds.

Emperor Hongzhi suffered from intestinal carbuncle. If he did not undergo surgical treatment, he could only live for three or four years. At that time, the prince Zhu Houzhao would ascend the throne, and the dynasty would change again.

If surgical treatment is performed, the success rate is only half, which also means that the sky may change soon. Even if it is successful, Emperor Hongzhi will definitely not be able to manage state affairs during the treatment period. The prince supervised the country, and then ordered several ministers present to assist.

In short, for the Ming Empire, the future will be precarious.

Tai Hospital.

The eunuch in charge of the imperial hospital was called Zhang Yu. He quickly received the order from Emperor Hongzhi, and immediately summoned the judges of the imperial hospital Liu Wentai, Fang Shuhe, You Tongzheng Shiqin, imperial physician Xu Yu, and Gao Ting. He and the others hurriedly walked towards Qianqing Palace.

"Eunuch Zhang, Your Majesty summoned us in such a hurry, did something happen?"

The court judged that Liu Wentai and Zhang Yu had a very good relationship and a very good personal relationship, so they asked anxiously as they walked.

"I do not know either."

"Maybe His Majesty is committing an old problem again."

Zhang Yu thought for a while and said.

"Then I have a count in my heart."

Liu Wentai immediately nodded and said.

Liu Wentai's medical skills are actually very average, or even poor. He was able to be judged by the court mainly because he has a good relationship with Zhang Yu. In addition, he is more flattering and flattering, not really talented.

Of course, these imperial physicians in the imperial hospital are the iron rice bowls handed down from their ancestors. If they have real talents, there will naturally be some people, but most of the imperial physicians have been handed down to the present. In fact, their medical skills are already very ordinary. Because my own medical skills are not good, when I see a doctor for the nobles in the palace, I basically prescribe some prescriptions to nourish and nourish the body, and there is no other way at all.

Every time he went to see a doctor for Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Wentai would ask about the situation first, organize his speech in advance, and respond with prescriptions and so on.

"It should be nothing. If there is a major event, it will have been reported long ago."

Zhang Yu also said with a smile.

The eunuchs in the palace are very well-informed about each other, not to mention that the emperor is sick, they all know exactly what color underwear the emperor is wearing today.

Soon, Zhang Yu brought these imperial doctors from the imperial hospital to the Shang study of Emperor Hongzhi.

"I feel a little uncomfortable, please show me."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Zhang Yu, Liu Wentai, Gao Tinghe, Fang Shuhe and others, and said indifferently.

"Yes~"

All the imperial physicians also replied in unison, and then began to step forward one by one to feel the pulse of Emperor Hongzhi.

Soon, after the pulse diagnosis was completed, these imperial physicians knew in their hearts that Emperor Hongzhi was actually the same as before, and there was not much change. Next, it was time for everyone to discuss and diagnose something for Emperor Hongzhi, and then prescribe a doctor. It's time for Fang Zi.

But at this time, Emperor Hongzhi said: "All of you go to a place to rest first, and I will call you in turn."

"Yes~"

Hearing the words of Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Wentai, Gao Tinghe, Fang Shuhe, Shi Qin, Xu Yu and others suddenly felt their hearts skip a beat. What happened to the emperor today? to ask.

But the emperor's words are imperial edicts, and they had to be led by the little eunuch to the next room to wait for orders according to Emperor Hongzhi's words.

The first person to be interrogated by Emperor Hongzhi was of course the court judge Liu Wentai.

"Your Majesty, you should have been weak since childhood, and you went out for a walk today, which caused you to feel unwell. You just need to prescribe some recuperation prescriptions and pay attention to rest."

Although Liu Wentai was very nervous, he still reported his judgment to Emperor Hongzhi without changing his face.

"Weak constitution since childhood?"

"Isn't it caused by other aspects?"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly, thought for a while and asked again.

"Your Majesty's dragon body is healthy and there is no disease. It's just that he is a little unwell because he is busy with state affairs. Don't worry too much, Your Majesty."

Liu Wentai still said very firmly.

In fact, he didn't see any illness at all, but he was very clever to deal with Emperor Hongzhi with the words he had said countless times before, and he even memorized the prescription.

"Well, you go down first."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded slightly, and soon summoned Fang Shuhe, the court judge.

The court judge Fang Shuhe's words were similar to Liu Wentai's. Naturally, he was able to be judged because he had a good relationship with Zhang Yu.

The following Gao Tinghe said the same as the previous two, both said that there was nothing serious, and they both prescribed the same prescription.

But when it came to the imperial physician Xu Yu, the situation was different.

"Your Majesty, judging by the pulse condition, the judgment may not be very accurate. Please forgive me for offending the holy face. I don't know if I can check it carefully again."

Xu Yu said nervously that before, he suspected that Emperor Hongzhi's illness was not that simple, but the hospital didn't matter what he said, and the emperor's affairs should not be talked nonsense, without a definite judgment, he must not open his mouth.

But today, looking at the expressions of Emperor Hongzhi and the crowd and this abnormal behavior, he felt that Emperor Hongzhi himself might know something.

So he was also very entangled in whether to use the previous words to perfuse Emperor Hongzhi as before.

"of course can."

Emperor Hongzhi's complexion slightly improved. From the perspective of treating diseases, these imperial physicians in the palace are really like outsiders. At the very least, the imperial physicians in the palace are just taking a pulse. There is nothing else, just ask the living eunuch next to the emperor.

That's why Xu Yu was carefully inspecting Emperor Hongzhi carefully, asking where Emperor Hongzhi felt uncomfortable and so on.

Emperor Hongzhi was more cooperative, and he did what he wanted, and soon Xu Yu also completed his diagnosis.

He thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, you may have an intestinal ulcer."

"Carbuncle?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi opened his eyes slightly, and then said, "Why wasn't it diagnosed before?"

"This is just my personal judgment. I used to make a diagnosis for His Majesty. It was discussed by all the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital. I am very soft-spoken and dare not speak nonsense."

Xu Yu said helplessly.

"People are soft-spoken?"

"Don't dare to talk nonsense, do you know that your diagnosis is related to the country of Daming?"

Hearing Xu Yu's words, Emperor Hongzhi became angry, and couldn't help asking loudly.

Hearing Emperor Hongzhi's words, Xu Yu immediately fell to his knees, and at the same time secretly rejoiced in his heart. It seemed that Emperor Hongzhi really knew something.

"Your Majesty, forgive me, Your Majesty forgive me~"

"I'm also very helpless. It's up to them to judge this hospital, and it's up to them to diagnose and prescribe His Majesty. How dare I speak nonsense."

Knowing that a catastrophe was imminent, he was also very decisive in throwing the blame away. A dead fellow daoist would not die a poor daoist.

"Humph~"

"Go down."

Emperor Hongzhi's face was extremely ugly, which really confirmed his own opinion.

These imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are not only quack doctors, but more importantly, these people are also colluding together, taking their own lives as a joke, and they have never had any diagnosis of intestinal ulcers that can be diagnosed by any doctor outside. Come out, it's incredible!
