Chapter 708: The three head Imperial Physicians
Imperial Doctor Xu nodded his head repeatedly, and then he heard Bai Zhi said: “If Imperial Doctor Xu is interested in this pill, I can teach you the refining process.”
Hearing this, Imperial Doctor Xu was both shocked and delighted. But in the end, he shook his head: “How can this be done? This pill that can cure stroke miraculously must be a secret prescription from your ancestors that passed from generation to generation. How can it be lightly taught to others? I’m ashamed and dare not!”
Bai Zhi secretly scolded a pedantic inside her heart and then said with a serious face: “Imperial Doctor Xu, I can see that you love medicine very much, so I said this. It’s not just an act of impulse.”
“In my eyes, there is nothing like a secret prescription that can cure disease and save people. Only when a prescription reached its goal to cure disease and save people can it be called a miraculous medicine. If we keep this only in our hands, only a few people will get its benefits, so how can you tell it to the world that it’s a miraculous medicine?”
Why was modern medicine kept developing? It’s because a hundred thousand of people kept sharing their wisdom since ancient times up until now. They didn’t stop studying medicine, so they slowly develop up to this point. If every person puts their little achievement only for themselves, then this so-called modern medicine will not exist.
If this medicine can’t reach common people, then what kind of medicine should be given to help them?
This kind of argument was an eye-opener for Imperial Doctor Xu, so there was a sudden burst of enthusiasm in his heart. His blood boiled all over his body. He has been living for decades, but his insight was not as good as this little girl.
Imperial Doctor Xu bowed his head to Bai Zhi again: “Today, I heard words that are worth more than 10 years of knowledge. This old man wastes his life and forgot the essence of medicine. After walking in vanity, I gradually forget the oath I made when I started learning medicine. Hearing your words today is like a big blow that knocks this old man’s head. Just like you said, it’s not too late to wake up.”
Bai Zhi just said it casually. Unexpectedly, it gives a lot of emotional meaning to Imperial Doctor Xu’s heart. He seems to be a person that easily befriend.
The two continued their conversation. Bai Zhi then pretended to ask Imperial Doctor Xu casually: “I heard Master Dongfang say that Madam Pei of Changyuang Houfu’s illness didn’t improve in more than a decade. I don’t know who’s imperial doctor visiting her.” Her grandfather once said that one of the heads of Imperial Hospital was treating Dongfang Wan. The Imperial Hospital has three heads physicians, which was divided into the left, middle, and right.
Well, she also doesn’t which branch Imperial Doctor Xu belonged to.
Imperial Doctor Xu said: “The one who treated Madam Pei was Imperial Doctor Liang from the right branch. He has treating Madam’s Pei’s illness all these years. Imperial Doctor Zhong from the left branch and I have never seen her.”
Bai Zhi nodded and said nothing. The two chatted about pharmacology for a while. When they were getting immersed, they heard a palace maidservant outside shouted: “The Empress Dowager is now alright. The Empress Dowager is now alright.”
Bai Zhi and Doctor Xu hurriedly went inside the room. Then, they saw Hu Feng standing in front of the bed, leaning close, and talking to the Empress Dowager, but didn’t get a response.
Bai Zhi stepped forward and asked the palace maid: “Is the Empress Dowager awake now?”
The palace maid shook her head with red eyes: “No, no, not awake!”
Imperial Doctor Xu frowned: “Didn’t wake up, then what are you yelling for?”
The palace maid busily said: “The Empress Dowager originally had crooked eyes, but now she is much better. This slave became so happy that she forgot to control her mouth!”
Bai Zhi understood and said in a low voice: “The Empress Dowager is truly blessed. With this, it can be seen that she passed more than half of danger.”
Hu Feng straightened his back and look at Bai Zhi, then said with a smile: “Imperial Grandmother is indeed blessed. However, it’s not god’s grace, but due to your hard work.”
