After listening to Song Xile's words, the young doctor seemed to have finally found his backbone.

He immediately ordered the frightened little pharmacist standing nearby to persuade all the patients watching in the shop to leave!

He hurriedly stood up, went behind the counter, got a set of silver needles and handed them to the girl squatting opposite him who was massaging the child's acupoints!

Song Xile took the silver needle and skillfully inserted it into the child's ten fingertips, which are the Shixuan acupoints, one by one.

Shixuan acupoint has the function of refreshing the mind, opening the orifices and clearing away heat. It is mainly used for emergency treatment in clinical practice, usually for fainting and coma, heatstroke shock and infantile convulsions.

After acupuncture on the tips of ten fingers, Song Xile inserted needles on the Shuigou point on the child's face, the Shenmen point on the hand, and the Taichong point on the foot.

These acupoints have the functions of soothing the liver and regulating qi, promoting qi circulation and relieving stagnation, and dispersing wind and relieving exterior symptoms!

Just as Song Xile was concentrating on giving acupuncture, a group of people came to the pharmacy. The middle-aged man in the lead looked anxious and solemn.

The people who gathered in front of the door to watch the excitement, when they saw the master wearing a green robe, a wide jade belt around his waist, and a black gauze hat on his head, subconsciously stepped back and made way for him!

The person who came was the magistrate of Nanyun County, Magistrate Zhou!

He was just discussing this year's drought and the necessity of digging canals to store water with the chief clerk and the county magistrate in the front hall!

Then he saw the nanny beside his wife come to report that her son had fainted in the clinic. He immediately dropped his official duties and rushed over!

With an anxious mood, he rushed all the way, and when he entered the pharmacy, he only saw a girl giving acupuncture to his son!

My son was lying unconscious on the crib, and the one who saved him was an unknown girl!

County Magistrate Zhou was furious and asked in a bad tone, "Where is Doctor Zheng? How dare you let someone do this to my son?"

Song Xile seemed not to hear the question. Without even raising his eyelids, the silver needles in his hand flew around and accurately pierced the Hegu and Yongquan acupoints.

Doctor Zheng trembled and stepped forward to report: "My father was asked to go to the countryside for an emergency. I am the only one in the shop. The young master's condition was urgent..."

The beautiful woman interrupted Dr. Zheng's explanation and said to her husband with red and swollen eyes: "Ming'er's safety is the most important thing now, don't make trouble at this time!"

County Magistrate Zhou wanted to get angry, but when he saw his wife's cold expression, he swallowed his words of rebuke.

The beautiful woman no longer paid attention to her husband and stared at her son's condition without blinking. If she did not object to the person in front of her treating her son at the beginning, it was perhaps because she was too anxious and tried every possible means to save her son.

But now she really believes that this girl can save her son's life!

In just a few moments of acupuncture, the child's rapid breathing stabilized, his originally flushed face subsided, and his body stopped twitching and convulsing!

After Song Xile finished a set of acupuncture, the child opened his confused eyes. After looking around and seeing his mother, his confused big eyes were filled with tears.

Perhaps because of the fever, the child murmured, "Mom..."

When the beautiful woman saw her son wake up, she also burst into tears of joy and gently comforted her son in the crib!

Song Xile couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw the child wake up. She turned to look at the young doctor who was obviously relieved as well, and asked, "Do you have Angong Niuhuang Pills?"

Doctor Zheng shook his head in confusion. "I have never heard of the pills that the young lady mentioned. I have only heard of Niuhuang Qingxin Pills!"

Song Xile then came to his senses. Angong Niuhuang Pills had not appeared in that era. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that it was recorded by Wu Jutong in "Wenbing Tiaobian"!

Fortunately, Angong Niuhuang Pills are still modified based on Niuhuang Qingxin Pills, and their medicinal effects are still clearing away heat and detoxifying, calming the mind and relieving shock, and having a pungent and cool effect to open the orifices.

It is also suitable for patients with coma, pediatric convulsions and seizures!

"Niuhuang Qingxin Pills are also fine. Give it to the child first! It will relieve his internal heat!"

Doctor Zheng's face tightened a little, and he stammered, "Secret recipes like this are usually not passed on to others. I... we don't have it in our shop!"

Before Song Xile could speak, Magistrate Zhou, who was standing by, was furious. "You don't have this, you don't have that, why are you opening a medicine shop? If it delays my son's treatment..."

The beautiful woman glared at her noisy husband. Her eyes were wide open with anger in them, and County Magistrate Zhou instantly swallowed back his words of rebuke.

I had completely believed in the beautiful lady Song Xile, and begged, "Miss, please tell me what herbs you need. If the pharmacy doesn't have them, I will send someone to find them immediately. Please prescribe a prescription to treat my son!"

Forget it, if it doesn't work, then it doesn't work. As an emergency medicine, Niuhuang Qingxin Pills only relieves superficial qi and does not cure the root cause.

Now that the child has regained consciousness, the top priority is to find the root cause, remove the internal heat, and eliminate the root cause of the disease!

After sorting out his thoughts, Song Xile took the child's pulse again. After taking the child's pulse, he looked at the child's tongue coating, which was thin and yellow. He then looked at the child's throat and found that the tonsils were obviously red and swollen.

After examining the child, Song Xile asked him some questions, such as whether the child had chills, the color of his snot, what clothes the child usually wore, and his recent living habits.

After the little maid beside her answered one by one.

Song Xile had a rough idea in his mind that this was a high fever caused by wind-heat.

So she explained to the beautiful woman: "The temperature in spring fluctuates. If a child wears too many clothes, when the temperature rises, it will affect the body's heat dissipation and cause lung qi imbalance, thus causing a wind-heat cold!"

"Just prescribe some pungent and cool medicines that can clear away heat and detoxify! For example, medicines that can clear away heat, such as honeysuckle and forsythia!"

As soon as Song Xile finished speaking, the beautiful woman's brows couldn't help but frown.

She remembered that Doctor Zheng had said the same thing to her yesterday. Children have a hot temper and internal heat, and the heat accumulated in the body causes fever.

Therefore, it is necessary to take medicines that clear away heat and detoxify.

But why did my son’s high fever symptoms not only not get better after taking one dose of medicine, but instead got worse?

What if the high fever caused convulsions?

The beautiful woman was puzzled, so she asked her doubts!

After hearing this, Song Xile frowned and thought deeply. The first thing that came to her mind was whether Doctor Zheng might have misdiagnosed the patient!

Colds are divided into wind-cold colds and wind-heat colds. The pathogenic mechanisms of the two are different, and the medications used are also very different.

If you use medicines for treating wind-cold, such as ephedra and cinnamon twigs, to treat wind-heat colds, it may aggravate the heat evil in the body, aggravate the symptoms, and cause the high fever to persist!

Logically, since Doctor Zheng saw that the child's fever was caused by wind-heat, he would not treat the child for wind-cold.

Since the right medicine has been prescribed, the child’s high fever symptoms will not disappear immediately, but they will not become more serious either!

Since the diagnosis is correct, the problem lies in the prescription!

Song Xile sorted out his thoughts and asked, "Excuse me, Madam, did you bring the prescription that Doctor Zheng wrote yesterday?"
