The world's medical concubine wants to divorce

Chapter 188 Is the Empress Dowager Poisoned?
The capital of Liang Kingdom, the Imperial Palace.

The empress dowager suddenly fell ill at the end of last year. At first, she just felt weak and had no appetite, accompanied by dizziness, and dizziness at every turn.

At that time, Royal Physician Lan diagnosed and treated anemia, and prescribed a prescription to enrich the blood. After taking it for a few days, he felt better, but slowly, the symptoms became more serious.

Years later, I fainted several times, accompanied by coughing, wheezing, and symptoms of asthma, but the medicine for asthma was useless.

In mid-February, he vomited blood. He vomited blood after coughing, and he suffered from long-term low-grade fever and weight loss.

Zhuge Ming went to the palace for diagnosis and treatment, and felt a bit like tuberculosis. He took several courses of Baozhen decoction, but his condition did not improve.

Zhuge Ming and the imperial physicians studied it, and felt that although the disease was more like tuberculosis, it had no effect after taking the medicine, which shows that the diagnosis of tuberculosis is not accurate.

Doctor Lan said more than once: "If Dr. Wen is here, he must know what's wrong."

Every time Zhuge Ming heard this sentence, he remained silent.

After the silence, he will tell the imperial doctors not to say this in front of the emperor.

The empress dowager's condition became more and more serious, but no one knew what it was, which inevitably made Song Yunqian angry and worried.

That night, he served the Empress Dowager on the sickbed, and sat by the bed the whole time, unable to bear to leave.

"Emperor, go back and rest." The Empress Dowager opened her eyes slightly, fine beads of sweat oozing from her forehead. Ever since she fell ill, the night sweats were particularly severe. Sometimes in broad daylight, even in cold weather, she would be covered in cold sweat.

"My son wants to accompany mother to the queen." Song Yunqian wrapped the quilt up for her, resisting the pain in his heart, and said in a gentle voice.

The Empress Dowager sighed for a long time, resisting the urge to cough, "The Empress Dowager may be suffering from tuberculosis, which will be contagious. You are the king of a country, so it is best not to come."

"Zhuge Ming said, you are not suffering from tuberculosis, but just anemia, just take a tonic." Song Yunqian comforted.

The empress dowager shook her head palely, "Aijia knows her body, Aijia is useless..."

Tears gradually appeared in her eyes, "The Ai family has experienced a lot of wind and rain in this life, and has enjoyed all the glory and wealth. It stands to reason that this life has no regrets, but the only regret is that I can't see you have a future." ..."

Her speaking speed was a little anxious, and it affected the soreness of her trachea, and she began to cough. This cough was so earth-shattering that it seemed that she would not stop until she coughed out her lungs.

Song Yunqian hurriedly helped her up, patted her on the back lightly, and turned around to call out: "Quick, bring warm water here."

The palace maid Ruhong immediately poured a cup of warm water over and helped the Empress Dowager to take a sip, and finally stopped coughing.

After coughing, her face was flushed, she was sweating more frequently, and her hair seemed to be soaked in water and picked up.

Slowly, the flush on his face receded and he became pale. This paleness was frighteningly pale, as if there was no more blood in his body.

This kind of situation suddenly reminded Song Yunqian of when Chen Yuzhu was seriously ill. At that time, Chen Yuzhu suffered from severe ischemia and was in poor health. It was finally confirmed that Keren poisoned her.

He immediately stood up, told Ruhong to take good care of the empress dowager, and walked out quickly.

"Where is Zhuge Ming?" Song Yunqian came out of the hall and asked Director Lu who was waiting on the side.

Director Lu said respectfully: "If you go back to the emperor, Dr. Zhuge was still in the imperial hospital an hour ago, and now he is probably out of the palace."

Song Yunqian said in a deep voice: "Show me, I'm going out of the palace."

"Yes!" The director of the road responded, stepped down quickly, and shouted: "The emperor is driving!"
Zhuge Ming is mostly guarding the empress dowager in the palace these days, and only occasionally returns to the medical clinic to take care of things. The medical clinic has seen more and more patients in the past two years. He has also recruited many disciples and hired doctors to come back. But still can't handle it.

It just so happened that a doctor in the museum returned to his hometown for a funeral, so he had no choice but to run around, spending most of the night guarding in the palace, and spending half a day in the daytime as much as possible to return to the medical clinic to help.

Not long after he came back, he heard his disciple say that Emperor Luan had arrived. He thought something had happened to the Empress Dowager, so he ran out in fright.

"Qian, why did you come out in person? Isn't it..."

Song Yunqian glanced at him and said softly: "Find a quiet place, let's talk."

Seeing his serious expression, Zhuge Ming knew the seriousness of the situation, and said, "Go to your wing in the backyard, where I rest."

Song Yunqian nodded, and ordered Director Lu to wait outside, and he and Song Yunqian went in.

There are several wing rooms in the medical hall, which are used by doctors to rest on weekdays. Zhuge Ming has simply lived in the medical hall for the past two years, so his room is relatively clean and tidy.

After the two sat down, Song Yunqian asked: "Zhuge, tell me the truth, is your mother's illness similar to that of Chen Yuzhu back then?"

Zhuge Ming was a little surprised that he would ask such a question. He pondered for a while, and said softly: "Did you see it? Yes, there are indeed some similarities, but they are not completely the same. This is why I have never told you."

"Chen Yuzhu's illness...is not a disease, but a poison!" When Song Yunqian said this, his heart was trembling. Over the years, he never dared to easily think of the people and things in the past, including Ke'er.

"Yes, even Wen Yi couldn't cure this kind of poison, and because of this, Chen Yuanqing always believed that Wen Yi deliberately didn't treat Chen Yuzhu."

Song Yunqian frowned sullenly, "Who poisoned the queen mother? And who knows this kind of poison?"

Zhuge Ming said: "Now we haven't confirmed whether it is this kind of poison, so don't let your imagination run wild, Ke'er's ability to refine poison is unmatched, but she is dead, and she has been dead for five years. No matter how vicious she is, she can't do it again Came back to kill people."

"However, when I looked at my mother's face just now, I felt that she was too similar to Mrs. Chen Yuzhu back then."

Zhuge Ming said: "They are similar, but as I said, they are not all the same, there are still differences."

"Where are the differences?" Song Yunqian asked.

"The pulse conditions are different, and the changes in the condition are also different. The empress dowager's condition is up and down, but Chen Yuzhu's condition plummeted at that time, and the medicine stone was useless. This is a symptom of the poison spreading to the blood."

Song Yunqian took a deep breath, "No one can cure the poison Chen Yuzhu suffered from. As you said, even Wen Yi can't do anything about it. I'm just afraid that I don't know if Ke Re taught this poison to others during his lifetime."

"Probably not, you are overthinking." Zhuge Ming comforted.

"So, how is the mother's condition now? Can the medicine control it?" Song Yunqian raised his head to look at him, with a hint of longing in his eyes.

Zhuge Ming was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "To be honest, I'm not sure. Now the disease is out of control. After taking the medicine, the effect is not big, not obvious, and even the cough can't be stopped. From the above Since the beginning of the month, low-grade fever, dizziness, and bloody complexion have continued to appear, which seem to be symptoms of anemia, but they cannot be nourished."

In fact, what he didn't say is that most of the organs of the current empress dowager have symptoms of weakness, which is the most dangerous, and maybe they will disappear in the next moment.

Therefore, it is meaningless to worry about whether she is poisoned or not, because even if she is not poisoned, there is nothing he can do about it.

He thought about whether there would be a chance of using golden acupuncture if Wen Yi wanted to, but he didn't dare to mention Wen Yi in front of Song Yunqian. Over the years, everyone had a consensus not to mention this person, as if she had never been here before.
