Bianjing little doctor

Chapter 218 Wujiapi and Xiangjiapi

The office accepted Xinyi Pharmacy's lawsuit against Yang Xie's family for slander, and sent messengers to the office that afternoon to summon both parties to the office for questioning.

Most of the civil disputes in the Song Dynasty were based on mediation. The officials were often unable to resolve trivial matters, especially housework.

The person in charge of the case is Xiang Dian, who is about 40 years old and looks like a good old man.

As soon as Xin Yi arrived, she heard Xie crying in the lobby.

"Your Excellency, you must be the master of our family. Look, this is the poison we bought from a quack doctor. This is a prescription prescribed by a quack doctor... Please look, my lord, my daughter-in-law almost lost it after eating it. It's life."

The prescriptions and medicinal materials were all presented.

This Xiangdian is also a serious person, so he specially found a doctor to be by his side.

He took it and looked at it, then asked the messenger to pass it to the doctor, and then asked Xin Yi.

"Miss Zhang, is this prescription from you?"

Xin Yi straightened his chest and answered seriously, "Yes."

"Is this medicine from your family?"

Xin Yi hooked his lips slightly, "That's not necessarily the case. My lord, there are many patients in my pharmacy every day, and it's been so many days. I've never heard of anyone eating bad, let alone eating dead people. But the medicinal materials are far from I can't tell whether someone has been transferred behind the cabinet."

Xiang Dian frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded.

"Indeed. Mrs. Xie, after you got back the medicinal materials, did you change the package?"

The strong woman saw that Xiangdian didn't show any harshness towards Xin Yi, so she quit immediately.

"My lord, the woman can't read a single word. How can she know which medicinal materials are poisonous and which are non-toxic? These medicinal materials are indeed brought back by the woman from her pharmacy..."

She said loudly again: "The prescriptions and medicinal materials are here, adults can compare them to see if the women are lying."

"Silent." Xiang Dian frowned, dissatisfied: "There is no noise in the hall. The doctor is looking at the evidence, so there is no need for you to talk."

Being reprimanded by Xiang Dian, Mrs. Xie glanced at him with chills in his heart.

"Your Excellency, if you don't believe the folk woman, you can send someone to investigate. Has the folk woman bought medicinal materials from other houses... It is absolutely true that my daughter-in-law almost died after taking the medicine from Xinyi Pharmacy."

Xiang Dian ignored her and looked at the doctor.

"Sir, are the medicinal materials and prescriptions compatible?"

The doctor hesitated for a moment, put down the medicinal materials, put the prescription flat on the table, and said to Dian: "My lord, according to the old man, this prescription is suitable for the symptoms, and pregnant women are also suitable. There is no problem. The medicinal materials are correct at first glance. But take a closer look..."

The doctor lowered his voice, "There is a problem."

Xiang Dian asked, "What's the problem?"

The doctor glanced at Mrs. Xie who was kneeling in the hall, "The medicinal materials may have been stored for a long time, and the quality of the medicinal materials has changed after being damp, and the pregnant woman is already weak, so it is possible that she could not tolerate the medicinals, which led to fainting."

Xin Yi was taken aback, his eyes darkened.

Every process in the pharmacy has gone through the hands of her and Mrs. An, so how could any spoiled medicinal materials leak out and harm people?

She bowed her head and cupped her hands, "My lord, the women want to see these herbs."

Hearing the sound, the strong woman stopped her loudly: "No, my lord, this quack doctor will destroy the evidence!"

Xin Yi: "Can I still eat it on the spot?"

Xiang Dian glanced at Mrs. Xie, patted the gavel, and said in a deep voice: "Miss Zhang, come forward. You can see, but don't move."

Xin Yi saw the strong woman's eyes flickering, she looked very uneasy, sneered, and slowly stepped forward, walking up to the doctor.

Seeing this, she immediately changed her face.

The doctor said that these medicinal materials are inferior products, obviously showing mercy.

Where is the defective product?
This is clearly a counterfeit drug, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is poison for pregnant women...

Xin Yi didn't know why the doctor would help her speak, but she was unwilling to accept this unfounded love.

"Master Xiangdian, these are not medicinal herbs from the women's pharmacy."

Xiang Dian was stunned, "No?"

"Yes. The women are sure not. Someone must have tampered with it."

Xin Yi pointed at one of the herbs and said in a deep voice:
"This is Guan Mu Tong, not Bai Mu Tong. The two medicinal materials are very similar, but Bai Mu Tong is hard and not easy to break. The edges of the slices are irregular, yellowish brown, light yellow brown or light yellow, with yellowish-white veins, and there are holes in them. , the taste is light when chewed. Guan Mutong is light when chewed at the beginning, but bitter after long-term chewing, and has strong nephrotoxicity. Although it has medicinal value, it should not be used by pregnant women.”

After that, she pointed to another medicinal herb.

"And this, my prescription says Wujiapi, but this is clearly Xiangjiapi. Although both are traditional Chinese medicines, Wujiapi is used for anti-abortion, but Xiangjiapi has strong toxicity. Do not overdose, excessive misuse will make people dizzy, and severe cases will cause brain hypoxia and fainting..."

Before her voice fell, Mrs. Xie screamed loudly.

"Okay, you finally admitted it. You took all these herbs from your pharmacy. You really murdered my daughter-in-law...My lord, you have to make decisions for the women. Pity my daughter-in-law, who is pregnant. , I haven’t recovered yet, and I don’t know if my little grandson will survive, that’s the lifeblood of women!”

Xiang Dian felt very headache.

Originally, the doctor said that it was only the deterioration of the medicinal materials. This kind of thing is not intentional, but now that Xin Yi said it himself, isn't that an admission that he took the wrong medicine?

He patted Tang Mu violently, "Miss Zhang, what else do you have to say?"

Xin Yi narrowed his eyes and shook his head.

"My lord, these herbs definitely did not come from my pharmacy. Someone must have tampered with them."

Xiang Dian said: "Who is picking the medicine?"

Xin Yi hesitated, "It's Mrs. An, the shopkeeper of my pharmacy."

Xiang Dian turned his head and called the messenger, "Go! Bring Miss An, who picked up the medicine, to the hall."

Xin Yi said: "My lord, there are two processes in the pharmacy of the folk women, one for picking medicines and one for inspection. It is impossible to make mistakes. It is even more impossible for both of them to make mistakes."

Xiang Dian: "Bring them together to the hall for questioning."

Mrs. An and her buddy were waiting outside the hall, and they ran up three steps in two steps after receiving the notification.When Mrs. An heard that there was something wrong with the medicinal materials, she knelt down without saying a word.

"My lord, the folk woman grew up in a pharmacy, so it's impossible not to tell the difference between Bai Mu Tong and Guan Mu Tong, let alone Wu Jia Pi and Xiang Jia Pi..."

Before Xiang Dian could speak, the guy who inspected the medicinal materials suddenly uttered, "Miss An, could it be that you are illiterate... read the wrong medicine?"

"illiterate?"

There was a sudden sound of breathing in the lobby.

Mrs. Xie was the first to accuse, "My lord, I have never heard of any pharmacy whose shopkeeper is illiterate. There are so many similar medicinal materials and drug names. Let an illiterate person come to pick up the medicine. I think they are black shops. A black shop that seeks wealth and murder!"

"Quack doctors are killing people, my lord."

Xie's accusation was louder than one sentence.

Xiangdian frowned tightly.

At this moment, there were countless people watching outside the lobby, so he had to be cautious in his words and deeds.

"Miss Zhang, why did you appoint an illiterate person as the shopkeeper?"

Xin Yi was silent for a moment.

She couldn't say that this person was recommended by the King of Guangling, could she?
Moreover, she never doubted Mrs. An's ability.

On the contrary, it was the man who told the story of Mrs. An's illiteracy under the watchful eyes of everyone, which was very suspicious.

Xin Yi remembered that this guy was recruited back when the pharmacy was busy and understaffed a while ago. He said that he had worked in another pharmacy. Xin Yi checked his pharmacology and thought he was competent, so he hired him.

I never thought that it might be a spy sent by another family...

It's really unreasonable to open a pharmacy and play Infernal Affairs.

Xin Yi looked at the guy, and smiled coldly, "Ms. An picked up the medicine, you check it. The medicinal material was also in your hands. If Mrs. An took the wrong medicinal material, how could you not recognize it?"

The man bowed his head, trembling with tension.

"The store is busy every day. The small ones sometimes help sell medicines. Not every medicine has been inspected... After all, Mrs. An is the shopkeeper, and the young ones can trust her."

"Impossible. Absolutely impossible." Mrs. An lost confidence in what the guy said, she kept murmuring and shaking her head, "Although I can't read, I can know the medicinal materials, and I can tell the truth from the smell. Might be wrong?"

She looked at Xin Yi in a panic, her eyes were red.

"Miss, you trust me, I can't possibly make a mistake."

Xin Yi knew what she was worried about, and gave her a comforting look.

"Of course I believe you. But... I can't trust him."

She pointed at the guy, "My lord, I suspect that this guy is an insider, that he did something wrong."

The clerk widened his eyes, and hastily shook his hand in denial, "My lord, I am wronged. I am wronged. I have been working in the pharmacy, and Mrs. Zhang treats me kindly. How could I do such a heartless thing? "

Xin Yi looked coldly, "Whether you have been wronged or not, you can find out if you check."

She walked over the clerk to Xiang Dian, cupped her hands and said, "My lord, please investigate thoroughly. Before my clerk came to work in the pharmacy, which pharmacy did he work in, but did he have a master? Who owns the body certificate?"

Xiang Dian nodded when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice: "That will stop here for today. After I have verified the facts, I will send you to ask questions tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "This case is not closed, you are not allowed to leave the residence, and you must be there whenever you are called."

"Yes!"

Everyone responded and left separately. Xiang Dian hurriedly exited the lobby. Before entering the inner room, he straightened his clothes, cleared his throat, lost the prestige in the lobby, bowed his body, and stepped over the threshold with a cautious look. I bow my hands and salute.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being incompetent..."

　Fu Jiuqu: It's very interesting to sit in the back hall drinking tea and listening to my little lady identify medicine.

　　Xin Yi: ...Why don't you sit in the front hall?Sneaky, rape or steal.

　　Fu Jiuqu: Let you see through.So do you want to steal, or...en?
