Chapter 1473 Sun Simiao’s doubts
The pretty face of Princess Jinyang, who has not yet grown her hair, still retains her childish look, but her sharp chin, bright eyes and beautiful facial features still reveal a hint of allure. In time, she will become another beautiful princess.
Fang Jun had not seen Princess Jinyang for some time. At this moment, he could not help but feel his eyes light up. He secretly despised the royal family. The genes were really strong. All the princes and princesses were so handsome...
Princess Jinyang entered the hall and saw Fang Jun at first sight.
But as he got older, his originally innocent and lively temperament gradually calmed down and became more reserved. He glanced at Fang Jun with bright eyes and saw the latter's unkempt and dirty appearance. He frowned slightly, but She did not speak, but bowed to His Majesty Li Er and said softly: "My daughter has met my father."
At this moment, His Majesty Li Er was completely frightened and panicked by the look of surprise and shock on Sun Simiao's face. He quickly stood up and took Princess Jinyang's hand, pulled her to Sun Simiao and said: "Taoist Master, please be troubled and take a look at Si Zi's serious illness back then." Has it gotten better?”
When Empress Wende was pregnant with her son, she did not give birth for ten months. Fortunately, she found Sun Simiao in time for diagnosis and treatment, and the birth was smooth and mother and daughter were safe.
However, at that time, Sun Simiao once said that the young girl had been in the mother's body for too long and had blocked many meridians, making it difficult for her to reach adulthood. Therefore, His Majesty Li Er has always been worried and takes great care of Princess Jinyang as the apple of his eye, fearing that she will die young if she is not careful...
Sun Simiao nodded slightly, but still sat motionless facing the emperor and princess. He smiled kindly at Princess Jinyang and said, "Your Highness, could you please stretch out your hand and let me feel your pulse?"
Princess Jinyang glanced at her father, and when she saw him nodding, she knew that the white-bearded old man in front of her, who was full of fairy spirit, must be one of the few miracle doctors in the world, and he was probably specially hired to replace him this time. When she diagnosed the patient, she obediently stretched out her slender hands, with a sweet smile on her beautiful face: "Then I'll trouble the old god!"
Sun Simiao chuckled, stretched out his hand, grabbed Princess Jinyang's slender white wrist, closed his eyes slightly, and checked the pulse carefully.
However, with this pulse, Sun Simiao became more and more surprised...
In the early years of Zhenguan, not long after His Majesty Li Er came to the throne, Queen Changsun was pregnant for more than ten months and could not give birth and was bedridden. Although he had been treated by many imperial doctors, his condition had not improved. His Majesty Li Er was worried, so a minister recommended the miracle doctor Sun Simiao to His Majesty Li Er. His Majesty Li Er sent envoys to Sun Simiao's hometown Huayuan County without stopping, and summoned Sun Simiao into the palace, who just returned from his travels.
Sun Simiao called the maid next to the queen to inquire about the condition in detail, and at the same time asked for the imperial doctor's medical records and prescriptions to review carefully. A detailed analysis and study was made based on these situations. Then, he took out a red thread and asked Cainü to tie it on the right wrist of Empress Changsun. One end was pulled out from the bamboo curtain. Sun Simiao held one end of the thread. This was the unique medical skill of "pulse diagnosis with hanging thread"...
< br>
Without much time, Sun Simiao finished diagnosing the queen's pulse. Instructing Caicai Nu to hold the queen's left hand close to the bamboo curtain, Sun Simiao stabbed the needle at the right acupuncture point. The queen was in pain and trembled all over. After a while, I could only hear the sound of a baby crying...
His Majesty Li Er was naturally overjoyed and wanted to keep Sun Simiao in charge of the Imperial Hospital. However, Sun Simiao declined the official position granted by Taizong and did not want to serve as an official in the court. He determined to travel around the world and give medicines to treat diseases for the people, and wrote "Qianjin Prescription". Help the living people.
His Majesty Li Er had no choice but to give Sun Simiao a generous gift.
However, at that time, although Sun Simiao only told His Majesty Li Er that the girl was frail and should be carefully taken care of to avoid premature death, he had actually concluded that the girl was born with damage due to her failure to give birth in time, and that she had inherited the disease from her mother. Congenital qi disease, weak and weak, logically speaking, he will never live past the age of eight. Even with the countless medicinal materials containing the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon in the palace, and the peerless medical skills of the Ethereal Hospital, the deadline will never be exceeded. Ten years old.
But now that I think about it, I am afraid that I am almost twelve years old, right?
Sun Simiao has a humble personality, but he is extremely confident in his medical skills, but unexpectedly he made a mistake for the first time...
The left-cun pulse is weak, large and astringent, and is depressed and weak when pressed. This is a sign that the sinking yin is inside and the yang is floating above. It is a sign that the yang does not enter the yin... However, after careful inspection of the pulse, it is found that the pulse is calm, gentle and not floating. Not sinking, not delaying or counting, neither thin nor flooding, even rhythm... Although the root cause of the disease is still there, is there still a sign of premature death?
Sun Simiao checked his pulse with one hand and stroked his beard with the other. His white eyebrows trembled, and he was shocked in his heart.
Could it be that there was something wrong with my pulse diagnosis back then?
He was surprised and unexpectedly caught a glimpse of Fang Jun, who looked concerned at the side... and suddenly remembered what His Majesty Li Er had just said.
Did you mention seafood just now?
Could it be that this seafood has the effect of curing qi diseases?
Sun Simiao stroked his beard and asked, "What do you eat as your main meal?"
His Majesty Li Er replied: "Since Fang Jun listened to your teachings and advised Sizi to eat more sea fish and other seafood, and shipped seafood from the East China Sea to Chang'an all year round, Sizi's diet has been mainly seafood, supplemented by beef, mutton and vegetables. , and fry it with rapeseed oil..."
Sun Simiao suppressed his surprise, let go of Princess Jinyang's wrist, raised his hand and said to His Majesty Li Er: "I would like to congratulate Your Majesty. Although Your Majesty Jinyang's illness has not been eliminated, the symptoms have been greatly relieved. This type of qi disease is certainly difficult to treat. It is a radical cure, but if you pay attention to your diet and maintain a happy mood, Keep it in mind and don’t be disturbed by the heat in the hot weather in summer. As long as it doesn’t happen, it will be just like ordinary people. Just don’t do any strenuous exercise or excessive work... Therefore. , Your Highness, as long as you take care of it, it will be fine!”
His Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment, then became ecstatic and said in disbelief: "Do you really mean what the Taoist said?!"
Sun Simiao nodded and smiled: "Although this poor Taoist is a bit deceitful, he still has a lot of experience in medical skills. Your Majesty is relieved..."
It stands to reason that this sentence is really reserved. If Sun Simiao deceives the world and steals his reputation, which doctor in the world would dare to say "wonderful rejuvenation"? But then I remembered that I had sentenced the Highness in front of me to life and death, but now I had actually slapped him in the face, and I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed...
His Majesty Li Er put a big stone in the Buddha's heart aside, and Long Yan was very happy: "Okay, okay, with these words from the Taoist Master, I have completely let go of my heart! This is my great joy, and I must reward the Taoist Master... …”
Sun Simiao quickly refused, shook his head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, why should you reward me? I have lived for a hundred years, what glory and wealth have I not seen? In my heart, I have long regarded fame and wealth as nothing, and only saving lives and healing the wounded, and promoting medical skills are what I want for the rest of my life. Please take back your Majesty’s orders.”
His Majesty Li Er had no choice but to let it go.
Facing an extraordinary expert like Sun Simiao, whose noble medical ethics is famous all over the world, even the emperor can't do anything to him...
*****
After chatting for a long time, Sun Simiao stood up to say goodbye, saying that he had been traveling for too long and wanted to go home for a visit. His Majesty Li Er and Princess Jinyang stood up to see him off.
Fang Jun also took the opportunity to say goodbye.
Princess Jinyang's clear eyes turned to Fang Jun, and she pursed her lips and remained silent.
How could Fang Jun not know what Princess Jinyang was thinking? He said, "We still have many affairs at home that have not been dealt with, and we have purchased a gift, which will be sent to the palace later as a birthday gift for His Highness Jinyang."
The little princess was about to celebrate her birthday and thought Fang Jun had forgotten about it. When she heard that he had already prepared a gift, she immediately smiled and her little dissatisfaction disappeared.
Immediately asked: "What kind of gift is it?"
Fang Jun pretended to be mysterious: "The meaning of a gift lies in the surprise after the unknown. If it is known in advance, what is the meaning?"
Princess Jinyang nodded her head lightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with anticipation.
His Majesty Li Er was not surprised by Fang Jun's doting on Si Zi. He just smiled and said to Sun Simiao: "The Taoist priest travels all over the world and hangs the pot to help the world. Although his medical ethics are noble and respected by the world, after all, he is already old, so he should still do it." Pay attention to your own body. Instead of running around, why not settle down and stay in Guanzhong, compile many years of medical skills into a book, and publish it to benefit the world and benefit the people? ”
Sun Simiao smiled bitterly and said: "The old Taoist indeed has this intention. He has written about basic medical skills over the years, and it is time to revise it with great concentration. However, he is unable to publish it all over the world... The cost of copying and engraving is too expensive." Why are scholars so valuable these days?
This is all because the channels for dissemination of knowledge are too narrow. Printing books is expensive, distributing them is difficult, and buying books is even more expensive!
