Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

"Princess Fuqing is seriously ill! Officials are urgently summoning her!"

Fan Zheng and Li Qingzhao had just got married. According to the practice of the Song Dynasty, they were allowed to take nine days off. After three days of returning home, he received urgent news from the palace.

"Qingzhao!......"

Fan Zheng immediately looked at Li Qingzhao with embarrassment. This is the helplessness of doctors. No matter what the situation, as long as the condition is critical, he must step forward. Only three days after the wedding, he had to give up his wedding leave and go for diagnosis and treatment.

"My lord, you better go quickly! The queen treats me well and cannot delay Princess Fuqing's condition!" Li Qingzhao knew that Princess Fuqing's condition was critical, otherwise he would not have summoned Fan Zheng in such a hurry.

In addition, Queen Meng had the kindness to protect Yizhuang, and when the two got married, Queen Meng even personally rewarded Li Qingzhao with Fengguan Xiapei to marry, which naturally made Li Qingzhao grateful, and immediately urged Fan Zheng to leave.

Fan Zheng nodded solemnly and immediately left for the palace.

When Fan Zheng arrived at Longyou Palace, Zhao Xu and Queen Meng were already waiting there anxiously.

Seeing Fan Zheng's arrival, for some unknown reason, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had taken a reassurance, as if they thought Fan Zheng's arrival would cure their illness.

"How is the princess' condition?"

Fan Zheng hurriedly received the gift and immediately went straight to Princess Fuqing.

Qian Yi frowned and said: "The princess has been ill for a long time and her condition is extremely complicated. However, she is too young to describe the symptoms verbally. Moreover, Princess Fuqing is fat and her pulse is too weak, making it difficult to diagnose."

If an adult is sick, the doctor can diagnose the patient's condition in detail by observing, smelling, and asking, but then prescribes appropriate treatment, but the baby cries incessantly, cannot speak, and cannot accurately diagnose the pulse, which directly defeats half of the doctor's medical skills and can only rely on experience. Probably prescribe medication.

Fan Zheng was helpless. It is not unreasonable for pediatrics to be called a mute department. It can be said to be extremely difficult to treat. In addition, Queen Meng took good care of Princess Fuqing, which caused Princess Fuqing to grow into a fat baby and give it to the doctor. Diagnosis adds a lot of trouble.

"Fan Taicheng, is there any good way to treat Fu Qing?" Queen Meng treated Fu Qing.

Fan Zheng shook his head slightly and said: "Queen Qi, when it comes to pediatrics, Imperial Physician Qian is the real master. The biggest problem now is that it is impossible to accurately diagnose the baby's condition and prescribe the right medicine."

Queen Meng suddenly felt like she was struck by lightning. She originally thought that Fan Zheng's evil methods were unfavorable, but she did not expect that Fan Zheng was not proficient in pediatrics.

Fan Zheng also smiled bitterly, not to mention the Song Dynasty, but also the later generations...

"Hereafter!"

Fan Zheng's heart moved, and an idea flashed in his mind.

"Perhaps there is a way to accurately diagnose Princess Fuqing's pulse!" Fan Zheng suddenly raised his voice.

Suddenly everyone's eyes were focused on Fan Zheng, and Zhao Xu breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he had never let him down before, and there must be a way to save Fu Qing this time.

"What method?" Qian Yi also said overjoyed.

Fan Zhengdao: "Compared with adults, babies' pulse is too weak. If the baby's pulse is strengthened, wouldn't it be possible to accurately detect the pulse?"

"Strengthening the baby's pulse?" Qian Yi couldn't help but frown. The baby was too weak, so this was almost impossible.

Fan Zheng recalled: "When I was in Pingxia City, in order to defend against the Xixia army's tunnel digging attack, I buried a huge urn underground according to the military manual to monitor underground movements. Sure enough, I really discovered that the Xixia people were digging tunnels. The direction of the tunnel and accurate location found it, thwarting the Xixia offensive."

"Giant Urn? Do you mean to use this method to diagnose Princess Fuqing's pulse?" Qian Yi said suddenly.

Fan Zheng nodded and said: "Yes, now doctors have deciphered Hua Tuo's secret knowledge and have determined that pulses are arteries and blood vessels, which are beaten by the heart. In this case, why not develop the art of pulse detection further, directly from diagnosing pulse phase to listening to the beating sound of the heart , we only need to build a small urn according to the method of using a giant urn to defend against enemies, put it on the baby's body, and hear the heartbeat of the baby's body. This will not only advance the medical skills, but also solve the problem of the baby's extremely weak pulse. "

At the moment, Fan Zheng drew a schematic diagram of a later stethoscope and said loudly: "This thing can be called a stethoscope. It can amplify inaudible sounds so that people can hear them clearly."

"This method may be feasible!" Qian Yi suddenly said with excitement.

Pediatrics is known as a dumb department, but with a stethoscope, pediatric treatment will no longer be confusing, and it can promote another leap in medical skills.

"Come here, go to the prison immediately and ask for a skilled craftsman!" Zhao Xu, who had been paying attention to Fu Qing's condition, immediately ordered.

Soon, the master craftsman Zuo Moyue was summoned. After learning the principles and drawings of the doctor's stethoscope, a simple stethoscope was placed in front of everyone in a short while.

Qian Yi picked up a simple stethoscope and carefully placed it on Princess Fuqing's heart.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A clearly audible heartbeat accurately reached Qian Yi's ears.

"Sure enough, it's feasible!" Qian Yi said in disbelief.

Originally, the baby's pulse was weak and difficult to detect, but when the pulse was replaced by listening to the heartbeat, there was such a big difference.

Although it was his first time to auscultate the heartbeat, he had been a doctor for many years. He quickly understood the sound of the heartbeat and the pulse, and gradually gained a sufficient understanding of Princess Fuqing's condition.

"Physician Qian will listen to the princess's lungs and breathe again, and you may gain something else." Fan Zheng gave instructions again.

Qian Yi once again put the stethoscope on Princess Fuqing's lungs, and couldn't help but froze. He could only hear Princess Fuqing's breathing accompanied by murmurs. It was obvious that there was a disease in the lungs, and there might be hidden dangers if he prescribed the prescription rashly.

At that moment, Qian Yi couldn't help but be surprised. The emergence of the stethoscope was more comprehensive than traditional pulse diagnosis. Not only could he hear the baby's heartbeat, but he could also hear the sounds of the heart and lungs. This was something that could not be done by pulse diagnosis in the past, especially for pediatrics. Great gospel.

"I'm afraid that in the future, I'll be watching, hearing, asking, and listening instead of just watching, hearing, asking, and hearing!" Qian Yi couldn't help but sigh.

At that moment, Qian Yi had determined the exact condition of Princess Fuqing and immediately prescribed a prescription for Princess Fuqing without hesitation.

"Get some medicine immediately and suffer!"

Queen Meng immediately ordered.

Soon, the medicine was caught, and the palace maid immediately began to decoct it and take it.

After the medicine was cooked, Empress Meng fed Princess Fuqing the medicine herself, without relying on other people's hands.

"Wow!"

Suddenly a loud cry came.

It turned out that the medicine was too bitter and Princess Fuqing was unwilling to take it.

I saw Queen Meng picking up a jar of honey, mixing the decoction and honey together to neutralize it, and then Princess Fuqing slowly took the medicine.

"Don't worry, officials. Princess Fuqing is breastfed and is strong. With the Queen's careful care, she will definitely be able to survive this disaster." Fan Zheng comforted her.

Zhao Xu couldn't help but fell silent after hearing this. Although his marriage to Queen Meng was an arranged marriage by Queen Mother Gao, it was undeniable that Queen Meng was a good wife and mother.

Among the three concubines in the harem, only Queen Meng breastfed the princess, and Princess Fuqing was obviously stronger than the other sons and daughters.

However, on the one hand, there was an arranged marriage that he hated so much, and on the other hand, there was the love that he had always longed for. Zhao Xu couldn't help but fall into hesitation.

Fan Zheng couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. Good medicine may not be bitter, but good advice must be unpleasant to the ears.
