Abandoning a daughter never abandons, a medical concubine should be self-reliant

Chapter 35 Chu Land Gu Poison
Han Du hurriedly shook his head, "No, no."

The master and the servant no longer questioned Li Siqi, Shen Boyu swallowed the alum for a while according to her instructions, and it was really sweet in his mouth.

Li Siqi secretly cried out that something is wrong, it is indeed Gu poison!
She had read that the Compendium of Materia Medica quoted ancient prescriptions for treating strange poisons.

It is on May [-]th every year that many poisonous insects are collected to make Gu, and this Gu is mainly used to cure malignant sores. Unexpectedly, later, someone uses this Gu to harm people.

But what puzzled her was that in the era she lived in, people were not good at using poison, and there was no poison at all.

This is also the reason why all the imperial physicians have never seen Shen Boyu's disease and called it a strange disease, which no one can cure.

That being the case, how did Shen Boyu get poisoned?It seems that it is really strange as Gao Qiji said.

Putting aside the doubts in her heart, Li Siqi knew that the most important thing right now was how to treat her.

Regarding the treatment of Gu poison, Li Siqi has several prescriptions in her mind, but she doesn't know if it is not applicable here.

If the chest and diaphragm are painful and swollen, the poison is in the upper burner, and the poison can be spit out. You can see Shen Boyu's current symptoms, abdominal distension and pain, the poison is in the lower burner, and the poison needs to be pulled out.

After thinking about it, Li Siqi had an idea.

Shen Boyu looked at Li Siqi's unpredictable expression, knowing that the disease was incurable.

If nothing happened, he said indifferently: "You don't have to worry, I won't die for a while, don't worry, I really can't cure it, I will ask the Holy One for you, and it will not hurt you."

Li Siqi was dumbfounded, she was busy thinking about it, but she didn't expect that it turned into melancholy in his eyes.

With a wry smile, he asked back, "Do I look troubled like this?"

Both Shen Bo and Han nodded in unison.

Li Siqi rubbed her brows and said shyly, "Sorry, it's my fault."

Then he was full of confidence, "However, I can tell you with certainty that I can cure this disease."

Han Du's eyes were full of surprises, but Shen Boyu's face was calm and indifferent, without a trace of disturbance, as if resigned to fate.

Li Siqi sighed secretly, this person will definitely become a great weapon in the future.

With an idea in mind, don't delay any longer.

Li Siqi first used gold needles to moxibustion three needles at the end of Shen Boyu's little finger, after acupuncture and moxibustion, dirty fluid flowed out.Then use Taishang Wugu Pills for treatment.

Although the Proton Mansion where Shen Boyu lived was not short of doctors and medicines, it was still far from enough for Li Siqi to use the medicine to cure Gu poison.

When returning to the medical center to pick up the medicine, Li Siqi couldn't hold back her curiosity, and quietly asked Han Du, "Just now you asked your son to call you alumni, why do you have such a weird expression?"

Han Du touched his nose and said with a smile: "That alum is used by my young master to soak his feet. If you let her put it in his mouth, I can't help but think about it!"

Li Siqi couldn't hold back when she heard the words, and burst out laughing, "So that's the case, no wonder you tried your best to manage your expressions at that time."

"Of course, you can laugh behind your back, but you can't show it in front of him. My son doesn't want to lose face?" Han Du said seriously.

It made Li Siqi laugh and laugh.

After returning to the medical clinic, I found that everything was not as smooth as expected, and one of the thirteen herbs needed in the prescription was missing one, podophyllum.

To be exact, it's not that there is no Tongren Medical Center, but that the whole Qianlong Dynasty of Qi State has never used podophyllum as a medicinal material.

But Li Siqi clearly remembered that she had seen it on Baicao Mountain before. It seems that podophyllum was not considered as a medicinal herb at this time, but was regarded as a weed by people.

Fortunately, it's easy to deal with, and only worried for a moment, Li Siqi regrouped and went to Baicao Mountain with Han Du on the back of the bamboo basket.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain, and Li Siqi and Han Du walked up the mountain together.

In the dark and damp place beside a stream under the hillside, Li Siqi easily found a lot of ghost sockets.

The two of them had just dug half of the basket when suddenly five or six masked men in black jumped out from the grass in all directions.They all surrounded them with knives.

Han Du's pupils shrank, and he clenched his fists. Li Siqi also dodged to approach Han Du, holding a medicine hoe, and the two of them faced the attacker back to back.

Just as they were about to fight to the death, a person appeared from nowhere and kicked the two black-clothed men away with such force that everyone was stunned.

Li Siqi was very surprised, "Uncle Lei, why are you here?"

Lei Ming nodded to her, stood by her side, and whispered, "I've always been here."

The leading man in black glanced at the person who had only one arm, with a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth, and said contemptuously: "You can't do it yourself, let me do it."

The six people formed a siege again and killed the three people in the middle.

Li Siqi doesn't know martial arts, even though she has learned Taekwondo, it is useless to face the long sword at the moment.

He had no choice but to hold on to the medicine hoe, and when he saw a black man approaching, he slashed vigorously a few times, but he also felled one of them.

Lei Ming's skill was so strong that he knocked down three of them in a short while.

Han Du looked naive, but he didn't expect that his skills were not bad, and it was easy to compare one to two.

Not long after, the men in black were injured, disabled, and disabled, unable to fight anymore, and the three of them did not love to fight, ran back to the carriage, and quickly left Baicao Mountain.

Before leaving, Li Siqi still hadn't forgotten the half-basket of ghost joints, and when she got into the carriage, she asked Lei Ming puzzledly: "Uncle Lei, you...?"

"Since I left the palace that day, I have been in the dark."

Lei Ming held the hilt of the sword between his legs, and wiped the blood on the sword with a handkerchief in his left hand.

He continued: "Yesterday, the lord confessed that I fear that these two days will not be peaceful, so let me protect you closely."

Li Siqi was surprised, that day when Gao Qiji asked Lei Ming to follow her, he thought it was just talking, but he didn't expect that Uncle Lei had been protecting her in the dark.

Last night, Gao Qiji's reminder proposal was not groundless, and the treatment of Shen Boyu really led to a fatal disaster.

"Why is it not peaceful?" Han Du interrupted and asked.

Lei Ming rolled his eyes at him, "It's not that the state of Chu is restless, but our people just found out that your young master's illness seems to be a chronic poison, and..."

At this point, he paused, put the cleaned sword into the scabbard, and continued: "This poison comes from a remote area in your Chu land, and few people know about it."

Han Du's face was full of astonishment, and then turned to anger, he slammed the wall of the carriage, and said indignantly: "My son was abandoned by them, and he was assassinated."

Li Siqi was silent, and couldn't help feeling sorry for Shen Boyu who was sent to other countries as a proton since childhood.

At that time, he was still the most favored prince. In order to show his sincerity to submit to Qi, the emperor of Chu reluctantly sent him to Qi when he was three years old.

But later, Shen Boyu's father had one son after another. During the ten years since he was sent here, he seemed to be gradually forgotten by his father and abandoned by his relatives.

Now, he is being used as a pawn again. Someone from Chu State poisoned him, intending to make him die in Qi State, put the blame on Qi State, and then provoke a war between the two countries.

But he didn't let him die happily, which shows the viciousness of the other party's mind.

Back at the Proton Mansion, Li Siqi started dispensing the medicine immediately, and the other twelve herbs had been taken from the Tongren Medical Center, only the podophyllum just dug up was a bit troublesome to deal with.

Fortunately, this herb can also be used fresh, so there is no need to wait for it to dry, otherwise it will be delayed for a few days.

To be on the safe side, Li Siqi stopped running back and forth, and directly lived in the Proton Mansion.

Han Du told Shen Boyu about the attack on digging the medicine and the possibility of being poisoned, and reminded: "My lord, the person who poisoned you must still be in the mansion, so be careful these few days, lest he hinder Dr. Li from treating you. !"
