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

Chapter 54 The Elixir
Just when Li Siqi was puzzled, Xiao Hua slowly lifted the veil.

She was frightened after just one glance, Xiao Hua's mouth was crooked, his eyes were slanted, his face was stiff, and he couldn't even complete the most basic movements such as raising eyebrows and closing eyes easily.

No wonder she hesitated when asked about Xiao Cui.

Xiao Hua shyly pulled Li Siqi to sit at the table, and said with difficulty: "Siqi, hurry up...help...help me see."

Li Siqi patted her hand to comfort her, and nodded in agreement.

After making a detailed diagnosis for her, combined with the condition of her tongue and pulse, Li Siqi believed that this situation was caused by Fengxie straightening the middle of the face, blocking the meridians, and paralyzing the meridians.

The best treatment method is syndrome differentiation and application of traditional Chinese medicine for expelling wind and activating collaterals, combined with comprehensive acupuncture and moxibustion therapy.

But in this way, her plan will be postponed again.

After thinking about it, Li Siqi asked Xiao Hua: "Ah Hua, how many days have you been like this?"

It was very difficult for Xiao Hua to open his mouth to speak, and he stretched out three fingers directly.

"Three days?"

Xiao Hua nodded.Li Siqi breathed a sigh of relief, that's good, the best period of treatment has not been missed yet.

"Well, Ah Hua, you can relax. This is easy to cure. You just need to take Qianzheng San orally and acupuncture for three to five days."

"I... don't want acupuncture!" After hearing about acupuncture, Xiao Hua spoke more fluently this time, "I'm most afraid of... getting a... needle."

Li Siqi took Xiao Hua's hand helplessly, and shook it, "I know, but, you are seeing a doctor, if you are afraid of this or that, wouldn't it be taboo?"

"No! I don't want it! You...you help me think about it...other ways!" Xiao Hua firmly shook his head and disagreed.

Li Siqi: ...

Cousins ​​Xiao Hua and Yue Yang are both afraid of needles, is it because there is a genetic gene of needle fear in the family?

Tapping the table with her index finger, she frowned and thought for a while, Li Siqi said: "If you don't use acupuncture, there is another way."

Curiosity appeared in Xiao Hua's eyes.

Li Siqi said slowly: "Take 60 grams of cassia twigs, appropriate amount of wine, take the thick decoction, soak the medicinal juice with a cloth, apply it while it is hot, apply it on the right side, left side, and left side on the right side.

Ah Hua, can you accept this external application? "

Xiao Hua nodded decisively, "Okay."

Wrote a prescription for Xiaocui to grab and cook the medicine, until Xiao Hua drank the medicine and applied the ointment before Li Siqi returned to the residence of the medical center.

A night without dreams, sleep soundly.

After waking up and having a simple breakfast, Li Siqi had just washed her face and put on balm when Gao Qiyuan came.

She laughed and said that she saw a treasure in Taoguzhai, and asked her to help palm the eye.

Li Siqi didn't understand, so she didn't know anything about these things, so asking her to palm her eyes, wasn't it a joke?

Although she had doubts, she followed Gao Qiyuan to Taoguzhai.

It was the same wing as when Gao Qiyuan was rescued last time.

After entering the room, she was surprised to find that Shen Boyu was also there, with a careless expression.

Li Siqi looked at Gao Qiyuan suspiciously, she squinted her eyes and smiled apologetically, without saying a word.

When they were all seated, the maid served tea and retreated, while Han Du stood guard outside the door.

Shen Boyu said with a trace of worry: "Miss Siqi, I have something to ask you for advice."

Li Siqi wanted to take a sip of tea first.

Seeing him like this, he put down the tea cup he picked up, "What's the matter, tell me, but I will tell you everything I know."

Clearing his throat, Shen Boyu said awkwardly: "I...I heard that the father is always restless and thirsty, lethargic and sleepy, and he is not sick after checking. Do you know what's going on?"

Hearing this, Li Siqi asked meaningfully: "I remember you said that he doesn't care about you, and you don't care about him either?"

Shen Boyu avoided his eyes and pretended not to care, "I've never held grudges, if I ignore him, wouldn't I be like him?"

After finishing speaking, he added in a low voice: "He has many sons, but I only have him as a father."

Sure enough, he is also a duplicity, a person who values ​​love and righteousness!
Putting her chin on one hand and thinking about it, she clicked her tongue, and Li Siqi asked, "It's really hard to say what you're asking, after all, I haven't seen your father in person, so I can't jump to conclusions."

When Shen Boyu heard this, his eyes dimmed, and Gao Qiyuan hurriedly said: "Siqi, I don't mean that you must be cured.

Previously, Bo Yu’s brother’s illness was helpless to all the imperial physicians, but you cured it. We all think that you are well-informed, and you must know the cause of King Chu’s illness. "

Li Siqi took a sip of tea, looked at Shen Boyu, "But, it's hard for me to judge with just a few words."

It is a headache just to find out that one person seems to be sick.

Shen Boyu stared and thought for a while, as if he didn't know what to say.

Looking at Shen Boyu, Li Siqi suddenly remembered that this time the emperor's birthday, the envoys from Chu State offered the panacea, which won the emperor's favor.

This thing, to put it bluntly, is an elixir of immortality, but it is actually a chronic poison that overdraws and hollows out a person's body.

But the emperor was still superstitious about this, and the imperial physician didn't dare to say more.

Thinking of this, Li Siqi asked: "Proton, has your father eaten anything suspicious recently, or has he been eating something for a long time?"

Shen Boyu said categorically: "I have received news that Father has always been very careful about his diet and will not eat suspicious things."

After a pause, Shen Boyu frowned and said: "I heard that he has been taking a kind of elixir for many years. Except for giving birth to many younger brothers, there is nothing unusual about him."

Li Siqi and Gao Qiyuan glanced at each other, neither knowing what to say.

However, Li Siqi felt that the king of Chu must have been hurt by the pill.

There is a saying that, taking food to seek gods is mostly mistaken by medicine.

Most of the basic materials used by Taoist warlocks for alchemy are lead, mercury, arsenic, sulfur and so on.

These things are poisonous, but they can stimulate blood vessels. Clinically, they can play the role of strengthening ears, making people feel like a teenager again.

But in fact, they are not only useless in the human body, but also quite harmful to the brain and internal organs.

If you take it for a long time, the toxicity will accumulate in the human body, and chronic poisoning will appear. If you want to cure it, it will be too late!
With a heavy sigh, Li Siqi said in a speculative tone: "It seems that it is the ghost of the pill."

"What? Elixir!"

Gao Qiyuan exclaimed, "My father has been taking elixirs recently, and the imperial physician criticized him, and he even fined that person, calling him useless, envious of others, what should I do!"

"That's right, the elixir belongs to the domineering medicine of tigers and wolves. The advantage is that it works quickly. If the emperor doesn't know it, he will use it. He must think that the imperial doctor can't use the method of an emissary." Li Siqi agreed.

Shen Boyu frowned even deeper, "If this is the case, it will be troublesome."

Li Siqi also felt helpless, and could only make some suggestions, "The most urgent thing is, the princess may use the lessons learned from the king of Chu to persuade the emperor to stop using the elixir.

Proton, you have to find a way to prevent the king of Chu from continuing to eat it as soon as possible, but it may be too late..."

After listening to Li Siqi's words, the two looked at each other for a long time, both felt that there was a long way to go, but no matter how difficult the road ahead was, they still had to try to save a little bit.

Three days later, Xiao Hua had already recovered, and Gao Qiyuan sent a letter saying that she had persuaded his father to stop using the pill, but there was no news from Shen Boyu.

Li Siqi bid farewell to Master and Dong Huiyan, and embarked on the road to Sitong Mountain with dry food.
