Reborn Doctor

Chapter 99

Seeing Zimo's delay in returning home, Mrs. Su was really worried.She was thinking about whether to send someone out to greet her, when she remembered that it was New Year's Eve today, and all the servants in the family were sent home for the holiday.

Not only was she worried, but Kou Tong was also worried.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, but there was no trace of Zimo's return.

The sound of firecrackers one after another can be heard outside, declaring the excitement of the New Year's Eve.

After getting along for such a long time, the Su family has already regarded Zimo as his own child, and Kou Tong also regarded Zimo as his elder brother, like a family member.

"Why haven't you come back for so long, let me go out to meet you?"

"Mother, it's snowing so much outside, I'd better go!" Kou Tong couldn't help saying, and walked out with an oil-paper umbrella stepping on the Qiongbing broken jade on the ground.

As soon as she walked to the door, she saw Zimo getting off a green-draped carriage covered in white snow.

"Why have you been away for so long?" Kou Tong was very concerned: "You must be hungry, my mother and I have been waiting for you to come back for the New Year's Eve!"

"En!" Zimo nodded, and swallowed the words again.

After coming out of the palace, he had been doubting, he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to recommend his senior sister to the emperor and empress dowager.If they succeed, the benefits are self-evident. The senior sister is thinking about clearing up her father's grievances, and then the senior sister's worries will naturally be resolved.But if they fail, the lighter will be decapitated, and the worst will affect the family...

When he saw Kou Tong standing at the door waiting for him, when she heard that she had been waiting for him, at that moment, he suddenly felt relieved.

Senior sister and aunt both regard him as family, why should he be so clearly separated from them?
"Senior sister, you're right, I'm really hungry!" Zimo smiled warmly: "Now that I'm back, it's time for my aunt to cook the dumplings."

As he spoke, he took the oil-paper umbrella from Kou Tong's hand, and walked in first.

Kou Tong lost his mind for a moment, it turned out that Zimo could also smile so warmly and easily, just like the sky after the rain, clean and clear, it lifted people's spirits.

"Come on, senior sister, I'm so hungry that I can't wait," Zimo urged softly.

It was only then that Kou Tong realized that she had been standing under the eaves for a while, her hands and feet were getting cold, so she hurriedly caught up with her by holding up her skirt.

Seeing that Zimo came back safe and sound, Su Shi was naturally very happy. She and Kou Tong served the food together with cooked dumplings, and the family happily ate the New Year's Eve dinner.

Because people at the time paid attention to not talking when eating and sleeping, so after eating, Su Shifang asked: "What did you do in the palace? Is there any noble person who is not feeling well?"

Zimo nodded and said: "There is a nobleman who is not in good health."

Hearing Zimo's vague answer, Su Shi suddenly remembered that the illness of the nobles in the palace cannot be disclosed to the outside world.

But she is still very worried: "Since you are treating a noble person, you should be more cautious than outside. I treat you as my own child from the bottom of my heart, and I only have one thing to tell you."

After hearing this, Zimo stood up quickly and said, "Auntie, just say what you have to say, Zimo also regards you as a mother in her heart."

"You are an imperial physician, you are a doctor. You can only take care of the doctor, and you can only take care of the doctor's affairs. You must not interfere with other things, remember?"

After Su said this, his eyes were fixed on Zimo.

"Yes, Auntie," he replied, "I'm an imperial physician, and I only do things to save people. As for other things, I have nothing to do with them."

After hearing this, Mrs. Su nodded, then turned to look at Kou Tong.

Before she could ask, Kou Tong immediately stepped forward, shook her hand and said, "Mother, what Zimo said is what I said. Tongniang is just a doctor and only does what a doctor does."

Only then did Su feel relieved and let out a long breath of relief.

When Su got up to clean up the dishes, Zimo led Kou Tong to the side hall, and told Kou Tong everything he saw and heard this afternoon.

"...The meaning of the emperor is that he hopes that you will come to the palace in a few days to feel his pulse. If it is confirmed that he can be treated, we should prepare earlier." He said in a low voice: "Today's condition is not optimistic. , if you continue to delay like this, the chances of being cured will be greatly reduced!"

However, with just a few words, Kou Tong's heart set off a stormy sea!
She remembered that it was the queen mother who was sick, and it took Zheng Shixiu a whole year to cure her.Zheng Shixiu also won the title of "Master of Chinese Medicine" because of this. Not only that, the emperor also personally bestowed a marriage on the widowed Kou Yan to marry him.

How come in this life, the sick one is replaced by the emperor?Not only that, even the time is not right?Did she remember wrongly?

Zimo saw that Kou Tong's face was uncertain, and he was speechless for a while, thinking that his words were too shocking to scare her, so he comforted her repeatedly: "Senior sister, don't worry, I have seen the emperor's illness, at least I have [-]% certainty, you Believe in my medical skills, and even more in your own. Together, we will be able to cure this disease."

"En!" Kou Tong nodded, feeling very excited.

It was the emperor who was ill. As long as she cured the emperor, wouldn't that mean that she would have the opportunity to go straight to heaven and wash away her father's grievances.Since Zheng Shixiu can plead to marry a widow, why can't she plead to reverse the case for her father?
Kou Tong dreamed of waiting for this opportunity.

Now is the opportunity.

"What is the emperor's disease?" She couldn't help asking.

"It's an extremely strange disease," Zimo said in a low voice. "When the disease occurs, the skin color of the fingers suddenly turns pale, and then turns purple. The attack usually starts from the fingertips, and later spreads to the entire finger, and even the palm. Accompanied by local coldness, numbness, tingling sensation and loss of sensation. After a few minutes, it gradually turns to flushing, the skin turns warm and feels like burning, and finally the skin color returns to normal.

It was only an occasional attack, but now it is more and more frequent, and once the attack occurs, it takes a long time to return to normal, and once again it lasted for several hours. Fingers won't work."

"This disease is indeed strange, but it doesn't necessarily mean it can't be cured." Kou Tong glanced at Zimo and said, "You already have a solution, don't you?"

"Senior sister is right." Zimo nodded: "I plan to use acupuncture, oral administration and external application together, a three-pronged approach. I am in charge of internal administration and external application of medicine, senior sister, you are responsible for acupuncture and pulse diagnosis. The envoy of the Qin Academy will be on the side care".

"Then when will I enter the palace?"

"The sooner the better!" Thinking of what he had seen and heard this afternoon, Zimo's voice was a bit stern: "The Holy Majesty's condition cannot be delayed."

"Okay, you contact the envoy of the Qin Academy, we will enter the palace tomorrow."

It was beyond Zimo's expectation to enter the palace tomorrow, he thought for a while and said: "Okay, you are going to prepare tonight."

Zimo spent the night preparing to study the prescription for the disease, while Kou Tong pulled Su's and told her a little bit: "Mother, I will enter the palace tomorrow!"

When Su heard this, his face immediately changed.

Kou Tong pressed her hand and said: "Mother, listen to me first. There is a very noble person in the palace who is sick, and now the illness cannot be delayed. I will go to the palace with Zimo tomorrow to help that person." The nobleman sees a doctor. Don't worry, this is just a doctor, nothing else."

Kou Tong paused word by word, and said very seriously: "I will not be able to come back in a day or two, at least half a month, at most a month. This month, you stay at home and don't go anywhere .If a month later, I don't come back..."

"Tongniang!" Hearing what Kou Tong said, Su's tears fell like broken beads.

"Mother, don't cry yet!" She took a breath and said, "If you don't wait until I come back, you can go to Yongchang Hou Mansion to find Guan Yi. Before I enter the palace tomorrow, I will write him a letter and he will arrange Appropriate people escort you to a safe place."

"Tong Niang, it's mother who made a mistake, right?" Su's voice choked and blamed herself: "I shouldn't have to take you out of Fanshui Town, I shouldn't have returned to Nanjing, let alone come to the capital. Tong Niang , Mother regrets it, I regret it, let’s not do this imperial doctor, okay? You go back to Fanshui Town with me, I’d rather you be a doctor who travels around the countryside, I’d rather you live a lifetime of peace and joy... . . . "

"Mother!"

Unexpectedly, his mother's reaction would be so intense, Kou Tong comforted her somewhat in a hurry.

When Su's mood stabilized a bit, Kou Tong shook Su's hand and said, "Mother, what I told you just now is the worst case. If I can cure that nobleman's illness, we can not only Prosperity, wealth and glory, the most important thing is to wash away the grievances of the father."

Speaking of this, Kou Tong couldn't help but pause, and his tone became firm: "My father is a model of benevolence and benevolence, not a sinner who murdered others. I don't want my father to carry the reputation of a sinner. Mother, one day, I will also have my own children, and they will ask, why do I study medicine? What kind of person was their grandfather?"

"I want to tell them solemnly that their grandfather was frail at a young age, so he determined to become a good doctor, heal the sick and save the sick, he is a master of medicine, worthy of the monarch and the patients he has healed. Mother, don't be sad, don't be sad, I will pass my own Work hard, let the truth come out to the world, and let the emperor rectify his father's name. A hundred years later, I went to the bottom of the underworld, and when I saw my father, I could proudly tell him: Tong Niang is a good person, Tong Niang did not embarrass her father."

After saying these words, Kou Tong only felt that his face was wet.

But Su Clan choked up again: "Okay, okay, my son Tongniang has such ambition, how can mother hold you back? Tongniang, just go, I'll wait for you to come back. When you rectify Junying's name, we will give it to you." Father builds a tomb of clothes and crowns, and worships him openly!"
