After farming, I opened a family tree

Chapter 237 Lin Shuyao

"Meeting the Marquis of Ning'an."

The other party bowed respectfully to Shen Tang.

"Sit down and talk."

Shen Tang spoke gently.

Sure enough, after sitting down, the other party looked at Shen Tang and seemed to have a lot to say, but did not dare to speak.

"Can you tell me about the common symptoms of wind-cold and wind-heat?"

Shen Tang asked.

"This is documented in detail in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine and the Han Dynasty's Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases. The Treatise on Febrile Diseases discusses the diagnosis and treatment of colds caused by pathogenic cold, and the Guizhi Decoction and Mahuang Decoction listed in it demonstrate the treatment of both mild and severe colds."

"Go on."

Shen Tang encouraged and spoke.

But I also felt impressed in my heart. He has indeed studied medicine for many years. It can be seen from the sound that he has a solid foundation.

When the other party heard Shen Tang's words, he spoke with even more confidence:

"A cold caused by wind and cold has symptoms of severe aversion to cold, mild fever, no sweating, headache, joint aches and pains, nasal congestion and a loud runny nose, occasional clear runny nose, itchy throat, cough, thin white sputum, a thin white tongue coating, and a floating or tight pulse.

Jingfang Baidu San is generally used, with Schizonepeta tenuifolia and Saposhnikovia divaricata to dispel exterior cold; Bupleurum chinense and Mentha arvense to dispel exterior wind; Notopterygium incisum and Angelica dahurica to dispel cold and dampness, making it the key herb for treating limb pain. Chuanxiong promotes blood circulation, dispels wind, and relieves headaches; Citrus aurantium, Peucedanum chinense, and Platycodon grandiflorum to invigorate the lungs and promote qi; Poria cocos and Licorice root to resolve phlegm and harmonize the stomach. For severe wind-cold and severe aversion to cold, add Ephedra and Cinnamon Twig... For a floating and rapid pulse, dispel exterior cold and clear the interior, and use Shuangjie Tang with modifications.

If it is a wind-heat cold, the symptoms are: fever, slight aversion to wind and cold, or sweating, nasal congestion and sneezing, thick runny nose, headache, sore throat, cough with thick sputum, thin yellow tongue coating, and floating and rapid pulse.

It should be pungent and cool to dispel exterior symptoms, promote lung function and clear heat, and Yinqiao Powder is suitable. Honeysuckle and Forsythia suspensa have a pungent and cool effect on the exterior, clearing heat and detoxifying. Peppermint, Schizonepeta tenuifolia, and Dried Fermented Black Beans dispel wind and relieve exterior symptoms, expelling heat and expelling heat. For severe thirst, use more Reed Root, with pollen and Anemarrhena asphodeloides to clear heat and promote salivation.

This naturally depends on the severity of the patient's cold symptoms and the amount of herbs to be added or subtracted."

When talking about the symptoms, the other party talked freely and did not seem nervous at all.

Although Shen Tang did not understand Chinese medicine, she knew the effects of several common Chinese medicines. It could be seen that the woman in front of her was indeed capable.

Sure enough, the other party's words shocked Zhu Yi, who was standing next to Shen Tang.

This young man in front of me can name all the medicinal herbs. I underestimated him.

"Zhu Yi, go wait outside first."

"Oh ah?"

Zhu Yi saw Shen Tang's serious expression, and although he was curious, he still went to the door.

There were only Shen Tang and the young man in the clinic.

"The girl is amazing."

Shen Tang praised sincerely.

Medical books are quite dull and boring.

"It's just a trifle, huh? You, you figured it out?"

Shen Tang felt a little amused when he saw the other person's panicked expression.

As expected, the TV series did not deceive her. As long as she put on men's clothes and dressed up a little, her gender would be unrecognizable.

Shen Tang attributed this to the following: firstly, the ancients may not have thought that women would be so bold as to dress up as men; secondly, some good-looking young men may indeed be difficult to tell whether they are male or female.

Seeing the other person's nervous expression, Shen Tang nodded.

"I haven't asked for your name yet."

"My name is Lin Shuyao."

The last name was Lin. Shen Tang instantly went over it in his mind.

But it seems that no imperial physician named Lin can be found.

"It's truly amazing that Miss Lin has such a solid foundation in medicine at such a young age."

Shen Tang's words made Lin Shuyao happy for a moment, but she became discouraged immediately.

"What's the point of having solid knowledge? I've been studying medicine my whole life, but I'm sure I'll never be able to actually practice medicine. I finally found this clinic, but I didn't expect people to find out I was disguised as a man."

Lin Shuyao was dejected.

"So what if her identity is discovered? Just because she's a woman doesn't mean she can be a doctor? Or does Miss Lin look down on this small clinic?"

Shen Tang looked at Lin Shuyao.

"Of course not!"

Then I reacted immediately.

"My Lord, do you mean that I can stay in the clinic?"

Lin Shuyao's face flashed with surprise.

Lin Shuyao started learning to read at the age of three. The first book she read was not "Thousand Character Classic" or "Bai Xing Jia", but a book on herbal medicine.

The Lin family has been practicing medicine for generations. Lin Shuyao’s grandfather was the previous director of the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Because of his advanced age, he has retired from the Imperial Medical Service, but many of the doctors in the Imperial Medical Service today are disciples of the Lin family.

Lin Shuyao showed amazing medical talent since she was a child, but because she was a girl in the family, Lin Yuanpan felt sorry for her more than once.

When he was young, he could dress up as a little medicine boy and follow behind Lin Yuanpan, but when he grew up, he was trapped in the Sifang Embroidery Pavilion.

Despite this, Lin Shuyao did not give up studying medicine. What was placed in her study was not "Nujie" or "Nuze", nor the Four Books and Five Classics, but many medical books that she had copied by hand.

There are many difficult and complicated diseases.

The hands of the noble lady of the Da Qi family, which were used for embroidery and studying, were used by her to learn needlework and grind herbs.

There were no spices in the boudoir, only herbal bags that she mixed herself.

The Lin family also tried to restrain her, but still couldn't do anything about it.

So Lin Shuyao often disguised herself as a man and walked through the streets and alleys, going to ordinary medical clinics to see how folk doctors treated diseases and prescribed medicine to save lives.

As she grows older, Lin Shuyao's desire to see patients becomes stronger.

She had been to many medical clinics, but the doctors didn't even ask her what she had learned or what she knew.

Seeing that she was so young, he rejected her directly.

There were also several clinics willing to hire her, but the prerequisite was that she had to work as a medicine boy in the clinic for ten years.

Although Lin Shuyao has never practiced independently, she is aware of her abilities.

It is absolutely impossible to be a medicine boy for ten years, and the Lin family will not agree to it.

Moreover, she had an agreement with Lin Yuanpan that if she had not become a formal doctor by the age of eighteen, she would officially put down her medical books, return to the Lin family, and prepare to get married and have children.

But how could she be willing to do that? As time was getting closer and there were only two years left, even if she was unwilling, Lin Shuyao would be afraid.

I am afraid that the persistence of more than ten years will eventually become a dream. I am afraid that I will pursue it passionately for half my life, but in the end I will be trapped in the four-square backyard.

She volunteered to practice medicine and save lives.

Just as she was running through the streets and alleys, she saw a small clinic.

The clinic seemed to be newly opened, and it didn't even have a plaque. There was only a recruitment notice at the door looking for doctors to sit in.

Driven by curiosity and the desire to give it a try, she walked in here.

I just didn't expect to meet the Prince of Anle.

She had naturally seen it when she was young and followed her grandfather to practice medicine.

The moment she saw Zhu Yi, Lin Shuyao remembered the recent rumors in Beijing.

Could it be that this clinic belongs to Marquis Ning'an?

Sure enough, it belongs to Marquis Ning'an.

But she didn't expect that Ning Anhou would see through her the moment he saw her.

I thought that Marquis Ning'an would not agree to a woman like her coming to see patients, but I didn't expect that he actually agreed.
