Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 214 Little Patient

Speaking of which, Ma Zhong was on duty that day. He happened to have abdominal pain recently and didn't want to go to the hospital. Anyway, as Bai Tu's personal guard, he was familiar with Hua Tuo and several of his disciples. He wanted to Just come to the medical school and check it out.

It turned out to be an unfortunate coincidence. After entering the medical school and walking towards the "Huatuo Hospital", there happened to be someone coming out of the stall when I entered the door. The two of them bumped into each other...

It was obvious that both of them were just walking faster, but... the one who came here really had a lot of sincerity, and with just one move of his shoulder, he actually knocked Ma Zhong away from him!
"Hey!" Ma Zhong cried out in pain.

Seeing this, the visitor hurriedly helped him and said, "Ah! Sorry, sorry, someone was in a hurry and didn't look at the road." He also saw that Ma Zhong was still wearing his daily armor, so he knew he was in the military and didn't want to cause trouble.

If he were an officer from another family, he might really be in trouble, but... Ma Zhongke had experienced the Pan Zhang case and was Bai Tu's personal guard. When he was in the martial arts hall, he was subject to disciplinary regulations and his fault tolerance was lower than that of ordinary troops. How could he be reconciled? Are ordinary people acting cruel?

He doesn't want to go back and rebuild...

Just because I already had abdominal pain and was bumped again, I was unhappy and whispered a few words, but when I opened my mouth, I still said: "Ahem, you also want to see a doctor. It's understandable that you are anxious, but don't be so reckless in the future. , this is what I am... I have a strong body!"

The big man looked at him strangely, as if he didn't expect that this young officer was of quite high quality - the big man also heard what he muttered in a low voice, but... it is not easy to be polite. The soldiers under him, the big man really wanted to promote him.

However, he had a special status, so it was hard to say much in Jinling. He just apologized and left quickly.
Ma Zhong didn't care at first, but while he was sitting waiting for the doctor... he suddenly realized that even if his stomach wasn't feeling well recently, his legs wouldn't be weak, right?
That big guy just now... was so strong?

And thinking about it, Ma Zhong recalled that the big man just now seemed to have piercing eyes, and his hair and beard were already gray. He seemed to be a little older, but he was tall and taller than himself. His facial features... just a glance, He couldn't remember clearly, but those eyes left a deep impression on him.

Could it be that he is a fierce general?

Ma Zhong thought about it and wanted to find out who the big man was so that he could recommend him to his lord...

It’s just... you’re actually here to see a doctor?Could it be that that strong cow-like creature is also sick?

As personal guards, although Ma Zhong and others are well paid, they usually don't have the opportunity to make military exploits. On the contrary, in this respect... ordinary captains certainly don't have the opportunity to directly recommend talents to the lord, and Ma Zhong recently wants to propose to the lord. Let’s make some adjustments to the Wind Guards. Discovering and recommending talents is also one of the functions of the Wind Guards.

Knowing that Ma Zhong was coming, Hua Tuo didn't come out personally. His minor illness didn't require Hua Tuo's intervention. Hua Tuo's disciple Fan A came to take a look at Ma Zhong.

Normally, all he needs to do is take medicine, but Ma Zhong has also heard of Fan A's "Ashan Acupuncture Technique", so he specially asked Fan A to give him a prick...

By the way, while lying down to be stabbed, Ma Zhong also asked about the big man just now. Ma Zhong believed that Fan A would be impressed by such a strong man.

"Oh, what you saw was Huang Xu's father, right?" Fan A was indeed impressed.

"Huang Xu? Is he here to see his son? He didn't see his son. Could it be that he stayed behind?" Ma Zhong asked.

Although the medical school had set some rules when it was first established, such as patients' privacy rights, but since Ma Zhong, who was the lord's personal guard and was about to be dispatched to the Wind Guard, asked Fan A, The principle of confidentiality.

"Well, the child is not old, only 13 years old, but the liver problem is very serious. Hepatitis, hepatitis, jaundice... all have some symptoms. Master even asked Teacher Zhang to discuss it." Fan A said.

In the medical school, in addition to his own "master", all other teachers are called "teachers" - Fan A is actually the "teacher" of many medical students.

"How come you have liver disease at such a young age?" Ma Zhong asked doubtfully.

"It's indeed rare. It's usually caused by people who have been in a bad mood for a long time, or people who are older." Fan A shook his head as he spoke.

"Then who is his father? Did he settle in Jinling City?" Ma Zhong asked, not worrying about medicine that he didn't understand at all.

"No, his father left a lot of medical money, and then asked us to let go of the treatment. Listen... he probably won't come back to see him for a long time." Fan A said with some dissatisfaction.

Medical science in the Eastern Han Dynasty has known that liver disease and liver stagnation are closely related to mood and alcoholism, so many imperial concubines and nobles are prone to this disease.

Huang Xu is definitely not close to alcoholism, but he seems to be a bit introverted. As a father, he actually dropped the money and left... but he believed in the sign of the medical school!

When Ma Zhong heard this, he was slightly disappointed, but he thought that Huang Xu was still here. He could outrun me, but he could not outrun me. Sooner or later, he would see the big man again.

After finishing the pricking, Ma Zhong asked specifically: "Can I see that Huang Xu?"

"Well... let me see if he is undergoing treatment." Fan A said and went to the backyard. He came back after a while and waved to Ma Zhong.

Soon Ma Zhong saw Huang Xu, and saw this child who looked younger than Cao Pi. His eyes were bright but dim and yellow, his face and hair were also withered and yellow, and his figure was even shriveled and thin. Ordinary people may not be able to feed themselves anymore.

"Son, can you tell your uncle your father's name?" Ma Zhong asked.

"My father... is a businessman." Huang Xu seemed a bit reticent.

"Businessman?" Ma Zhong was a little surprised.

As for the name "Huang Yi", Ma Zhong didn't have much impression.

"Okay, you can take good care of your health in Jinling. When your father comes to see you, remember to tell your uncle." Ma Zhong said.

"Okay, but my father probably won't come. If I can recover, I will go home by myself." Huang Xu said after hesitating.

"What? Your father... is so busy? Where is your home?" Ma Zhong frowned.

"Yingchuan." Huang Xu didn't explain much.

"Well, tell me then and I'll arrange for someone to take you home." Ma Zhong didn't give up yet.

But he didn't see that after he turned and left, Huang Xu muttered something, which should have been "sorry" based on the shape of his mouth.

Yes, Huang Xu lied.

He was not from Yingchuan, and there was no way he could be sent away by someone from the General's Mansion. He was born in Nanyang, and his father was Huang Zhong, who was the Zhonglang General conferred by Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou. Now he is under the command of Liu Biao's nephew, Liu Pan, the governor of Changsha!
Huang Zhong only had a son when he was 35 years old, which is considered to be a son in his old age now. However, Huang Xu was smart when he was young, but after he was seven years old, he contracted a strange disease. Not only was he unable to practice the inherited skills, but his life was even in danger...

In his early years, Huang Zhong always took Huang Xu to seek medical advice, so although he was very capable, he achieved nothing.

Huang Xu's condition improved slightly in the past few years. Huang Zhong took him back to his hometown and found a job in Jingzhou Prefecture. Although this "Zhonglang General" is now less and less valuable, he is still a middle-level officer.

However, Huang Xu's illness has been recurring, and he almost died last year. Fortunately, he managed to survive. A few months ago, Huang Zhong heard that Zhang Zhongjing was in Shouchun and wanted to go. Recently, he learned that Jinling established a medical school, and a large number of famous doctors gathered here. Huang Zhong couldn't help it...

However, anyone with a discerning eye now knows that the relationship between the General's Mansion and Jingzhou Mansion is about to start a war.

If there is news that Huang Zhong appeared in Jinling at this time, saying that he was treating a child... would anyone believe it?
Not to mention, if someone from the General's Mansion finds out, there will probably be trouble!

Therefore, Huang Zhong had made an excuse to go back to his hometown to attend the funeral for his second uncle, so he took Huang Xu out and concealed his identity all the way to Jinling.

Naturally, he would not stay long. He gave all the remaining wealth in his family to the medical school, just to cure his son. However, Hua Tuo only promised to do his best. If he could not be cured... the remaining medical expenses would be borne by himself. Come and get it.

At the same time, Huang Zhong also told Huang Xu that if he could recover one day, he would go back to Nanyang.

Ma Zhong didn't know what was going on. Seeing that he couldn't find the big man for the time being, he gave up his thoughts - the General's Mansion now has a hundred thousand elite soldiers, a thousand generals, warriors like clouds, advisers like rain, and a stable group of flying dragons. Qi Lian... still lacks Huang Yi?
……

"Sneeze!" Bai Tu couldn't help it and sneezed, suspecting that someone was scolding him behind his back.

However, this sneeze did not relieve the awkward atmosphere. At this time, Chen Gong, with his beard and eyes wide open, was arguing with Bai Tu, and Zhang Liao was also standing beside him, looking helpless.

The reason why Chen Gong was angry was not because of Bai Tu's sneezing, but because of his naive illness again...

Now that Bai Tu has taken the position of general, Jiuxi has resigned for the first time, and the second imperial edict is still on the way, Bai Tu is also preparing to attack Jingzhou... To be precise, he is urging Liu Biao and Yuan Ni Draw a clear line and hand over Yuan Yao, Yuan Yin, and Huang Qi who have harmed the people without restraint.

It's just that Liu Biao, as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, was determined to harbor those who rebelled against the party, colluded with the unscrupulous people who abused the people, and was even involved with Huang Zu, who murdered Sun Jian, the lord of Wucheng, his ancestor...

Therefore, Bai Tu concluded that Liu Biao probably did the same thing in Jingzhou.

Whenever I think of the people in Jingzhou, living in dire straits every day, waiting for the rescue of the heavenly soldiers of the Han Dynasty, as a general of the Han Dynasty, Bai Tu's heart was as sharp as a knife, filled with righteous indignation, and he was beyond angry!
Therefore, he decided on the grand strategy of the Western Expedition, determined to punish the people and clean up the world, call on the civil and military forces of Yangzhou to unite as one, persuade the righteous men of Jingzhou to abandon evil and do good, and draw a clear line with Liu Biao, who tortured the people and had no regard for the imperial court...

Sun Ce, who had been sharpening his sword for a long time and wished he could avenge his father as soon as possible, had already led his troops to mobilize troops in Chaisang, preparing to conquer Jiangxia and avenge the hatred of the country and the family.

Jia Xu was sent to Yiyang by Bai Tu to assist Jiang Qin, Chen Dao and other generals in re-sending troops to cross the Huaihe River to attack Yuan Yao, and formed a pincer attack with Zhang Xiu in Wancheng.

There is no problem with these two routes, but there is a disagreement between Bai Tu and Chen Gong on the issue of whether the third route army should be dispatched...
