Chapter 67: Revealing the List and Treating Diseases
Shang Zhi looked at the medical search list and did not write about the symptoms of the county magistrate's wife, but simply looked for a famous doctor. If it was cured, he would give a large notice.
She was not a conceited person. Since she saw Old Man Zhang’s letter, she realized that there were many powerful doctors in ancient times.
The county magistrate was anxious to seek medical treatment, which shows that the county magistrate's wife's condition was not optimistic.
"Master, you can think about it. I believe you can do it!" Lin Xinyi thought it was very simple. They gave the list and tried it. If it was not cured, it would not be cured. If it could be cured, it would be better.
Shang Zhi laughed. She was worried that she had met County Magistrate Gong yesterday. It was rumored that he had a deep relationship with the County Magistrate's wife. If the County Magistrate's wife was really sick and ill, he should have a haggard and depressed look.
"I'm just worried about something strange." Shang Zhi said about her meeting with Magistrate Gong.
"Mr. Gong and his wife are indeed in love with each other, and the wife of the county magistrate is open-minded and cheerful. I once heard that after the wife of the county magistrate was sick, the magistrate Gong was depressed and anxious all day long, but he was haggard and thin for a few days. After seeing her, the magistrate said, "Seeing your appearance, I feel like I am about to be in a bad mood soon. I have been tortured by the disease all day long, and I have to see you with a bitter face, but I feel that my chest is tight and I am more serious. Even if the disease cannot be cured, I want to live my last life happily all day long."
Lin Xinyi sighed: "Since then, County Magistrate Gong has treated the county Magistrate's wife as usual, thinking she is a healthy person."
His words aroused Shang Zhi's curiosity. If he was hesitant before, then after hearing the county magistrate's wife, she would want to meet the lady.
Patients are most taboo to negative emotions. If they are optimistic, it will be conducive to the recovery of the disease. However, everyone knows this principle, few people can do it.
Making up his mind, Shang Zhi immediately packed up his pulse pillow, silver needles, pen, ink, paper and ink, put them in a small wooden box, and went to the county town with Lin Xinyi.
The county town is long and you may not be able to get there at noon by taking a ox cart. Lin Xinyi thought of the heavy money promised by the county magistrate, and gritted his teeth and took a ox cart to rent a cart in the town to the county town.
The two arrived at the county government office before noon.
The magistrate Gong's family lived in the inner courtyard of the yamen. When the person guarding the yamen heard that the two of them were coming, they looked at them for a second, but they did not make any difficulties to stop them. They went in and reported directly.
"Please come in there, two." The man came out soon and asked Shang Zhi and Lin Xinyi to come in.
The gatekeeper brought Shang Zhi and Lin Xinyi there, stood at the door waiting for the maid to come in and communicate. After a while, the maid invited them in.
The room was very simple and elegant, with a faint fragrance of medicine. Shangzhi entered the inner room and saw County Magistrate Gong wearing a royal blue gown, rolling up his sleeves and holding a bowl, coaxing the county Magistrate's wife to eat a few more bites of the cooked meat soup rice.
The county magistrate's wife sat on the head of the bed, her face was expressionless, and her mouth was tilted to the left. A piece of brocade plaster was around her neck, and the soup flowed down the corners of her mouth.
County Magistrate Gong was patient and meticulous, wiped it clean with a brocade chewer, and then scooped a spoonful to feed it to his mouth. When the county Magistrate's wife saw Shangzhi coming in, she tilted her head and refused to eat it again.
"You have another few bites and I will give you sweet soup in the afternoon. It's okay if you don't eat it. I and Qi'er and Lin'er eat crystal elbows to accompany you for dinner, and they are in the Xianglou." County Magistrate Gong made a move to put down the bowl.
The county magistrate's wife glared at him and grabbed his sleeve.
County Magistrate Gong smiled and fed her a few bites of food, then asked the maid to take her down, wait for the county Magistrate's wife to rinse her mouth, drink a few sips of water, and then tidied her cuffs, looked at Shang Zhi and Lin Xinyi, and raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"Girl, we're meeting again." County Magistrate Gong made a call and asked the two to sit down. "Who will treat your wife to you?"
"Mr. Gong County, I know some magical skills. I will try it when I see the notice and reveal the list." Shang Zhi put the notice on the table.
County Magistrate Gong was very kind and did not despise Shang Zhi because of her youth and tenderness. "My wife began to have facial paralysis at the beginning of the year, her mouth was crooked, and she was difficult to chew and eat. Visiting famous doctors has not achieved much results. Now it is getting worse and has eye disease."
The situation he mentioned was already clear about the face of the wife of the county magistrate Shang Zhiguan.
She walked over and the county magistrate's wife moved the corners of her mouth, trying to smile at her gently. There was no expression on her weird face, but instead she looked distorted.
Shang Zhi smiled slightly, "Don't worry, you are caused by facial nerve paralysis."
The county magistrate's wife couldn't understand the terms, so she lay quietly on Shang Zhi's face and pinched her face for examination.
"You close your eyes."
The county magistrate's wife closed her eyes, but her left eye failed to completely close.
Shang Zhi issued some more instructions, and the county magistrate's wife followed suit and had a general understanding of her situation.
She said to Lin Xinyi who looked carefully: "The patient's mouth corners were tilted to the left, the forehead lines on the left were not obvious, the left eye could not be completely closed, the left facial plate was stagnant, numb, stretched the tongue to the right, blow the air and leaked air on the left corner of the mouth, and there was a pain in the bone behind the left ear." As she said that, she told Lin Xinyi according to the position of the bone behind the left ear, and said: "The pulse is thin, the tongue is pale red, and the coating is thin and white. There is no dizziness, headache, no nausea and vomiting, and you can take food."
Lin Xinyi looked serious and nodded, indicating that he understood.
Shang Zhirang said to Gong County Magistrate: "My wife has facial paralysis and external symptoms of wind and cold."
County Magistrate Gong said: "The other doctors are also diagnosed in this way. How should we treat them symptomatically?"
"Acupuncture treatment at the acupoint." Shang Zhi looked at the county magistrate's wife because her eyes were unable to close completely, causing an infected ulcer. "Fry 120 grams of dandelion in water and smoke and wash your eyes."
The Gong County Magistrate ordered people to immediately get medicine and decoct water.
The county magistrate's wife was very nervous and disappointed too many times, but she was still full of hope. She thought optimistically that perhaps it was because she was too happy that she would give her a test of hardship and she could not be defeated.
But when you see Shang Zhi calm and composed, she is different from the solemnity and helplessness of other doctors, and she can't help but wet her eyes.
She didn't know if Shang Zhi was young and fearless, or if he took the medicine seriously and was very capable of curing it. She kept persuading herself in her heart, she could! She would definitely cure it!
Shang Zhi opened the medicine box and unfolded the silver needle. The county magistrate's wife held her wrist tightly, "Girl, you can let go of it. It doesn't matter if it doesn't cure it."
The magistrate Gong County was thrusting his heart. He knew that his wife was seriously ill and worried, and never showed it in front of them. But whenever she failed, the disappointment in her eyes was like a dull knife piercing into his heart.
He approached, holding his wife's hand with fine lines in both hands, and brushed her temples behind his ears, "Madam, don't be afraid, you look beautiful too."
The county magistrate's wife pulled the corner of her mouth, turned her head and looked into the tent, tears soaking her pillow.
She held back her tears, restrained her smile and said, "That's natural. I was the number one beauty in Qinghe County back then."
County Magistrate Gong smiled slightly and watched Shangzhi fall into needles.
While she was putting acupuncture, she said to Lin Xinyi: "Moxibustion on Yangbai, Yintang, Taiyang, Sibai, Yuhao, Xiaguan, Dicang, Renzhong, Chengji, Yifeng, Hegu and other acupoints, unblock the meridians and activate the meridians and replenish the qi. In combination with Dilong, Chuanxiong, Astragalus, and Achyranthesops, it can cure crooked mouth and tongue, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis."
After that, do facial massage or hot compress.
Lin Xinyi wrote down one by one.
At this time, the maid came in and reported: "Master, another doctor came outside the door."
County Magistrate Gong glanced at Shang Zhi who was concentrating on his needle. He was too focused and fine sweat emerged from his forehead. He pondered: "Let's wait outside."
"yes."
Time passed by bit by bit, Shangzhi pulled out the needle and let out a long breath. He used steamed silk cloth to warm the county magistrate's wife, and massaged it skillfully.
Lin Xinyi was afraid that he would not remember it, so he silently recited the acupoints while practicing techniques on his knees.
"Madam, do you feel better?"
Two quarters of an hour later, Shang Zhi pushed her face.
The county magistrate's wife opened her mouth, and her face seemed to have subtle perception. She bent her eyes and a glimmer of joy burst out from her eyes. She nodded quickly, holding Shang Zhi's hand excitedly, unable to speak.
Seeing this, County Magistrate Gong suppressed his ecstasy and said kindly: "Girl, during your treatment for your wife, I will arrange two wing rooms to accommodate you."
Shang Zhi cleaned his hands, put away the silver needle, and heard this, and looked at Lin Xinyi.
"I'm sorry, sir." Shang Zhi bowed.
"You don't have to be polite. If you cure your wife, you will be the benefactor of the Gong Mansion!" County Magistrate Gong could not wait to talk to his wife, so he waved his hand and asked the maid to take Shang Zhi and Lin Xinyi to the wing room.
Shang Zhi was overly exhausted and really wanted to have a good rest. When he walked out of the house, he looked at He Pingzhang and Li Daxian waiting at the door, and couldn't help but stop.
