When Chu Beiqing authored the "Mystical dicine Book" in those years, he traveled extensively.
Therefore, besides various valuable herbs and elixir pills, the cases in the "Mystical dicine Book" are also extrely useful.
More than half of these are cases of illnesses diagnosed and treated by Chu Beiqing, but there are also so he encountered during his travels.
One such case is very similar to the current situation with the Empress Dowager.
Xin Lin asked the old nanny a few more questions and learned that the Empress Dowager had been experiencing abdominal pain for five or six days.
This is quite serious.
Xin Lin was secretly alard.
According to the case records, the Empress Dowager could not hold on much longer.
If she isn’t treated today, she might suddenly die.
"What is wrong with the Empress Dowager?"
Emperor Longteng asked with concern.
"The Empress Dowager has retained lochia in her abdon, possibly left from improper childbirth in the past. The lochia has accumulated for too long and cannot be expelled, so we must find a way to draw it out, otherwise, it could be detrintal to the Empress Dowager."
Xin Lin pondered.
"Retained lochia? How is that possible? The Empress Dowager gave birth thirty-eight years ago."
The imperial physicians present were dumbfounded.
Among them, so had assisted in the childbirth of the Empress Dowager.
"Could I ask if the Empress Dowager’s childbirth was natural? I believe it was not."
Xin Lin said.
Thirty-eight years is much longer than the twenty-five years docunted for that woman by the foolish father.
Ordinary won would have likely fallen ill long before, but the Empress Dowager, due to being in the royal family and well-maintained, managed to go thirty-eight years without a flare-up.
The imperial physicians were speechless.
An old imperial physician with graying hair spoke up.
"Back then, the Empress Dowager indeed had a difficult labor, and the child born was the Emperor. It took sixteen hours, and there was a nuchal cord. Only thanks to the Emperor’s imnse luck did they survive."
"The lochia after this difficult labor was not fully expelled and has accumulated over thirty-eight years. Even if the Empress Dowager’s nstruation had ended, the lochia likely remains."
Xin Lin glanced at the old nanny beside him.
The old nanny hurriedly nodded in agreent.
"Now that the condition has been identified, we must treat it quickly."
The Emperor Longteng urged, as the Empress Dowager writhed in pain, her face pale.
"The treatnt is sowhat tricky. Normally, drinking so herbal dicine can clear out lochia. But the Empress Dowager’s lochia has been deposited for thirty-eight years; normal thods cannot expel it."
Xin Lin pondered.
The imperial physicians nodded in agreent.
They had prescribed treatnts before for the impure nstruation of the Empress Dowager, but none had any effect.
"This doesn’t work; that doesn’t work. What should we do? Are we just going to let the Empress Dowager die in pain?"
The veins on Emperor Longteng’s forehead throbbed.
"Please prescribe abortion pills for . I will think of a thod, combined with acupuncture, to see if I can expel the lochia for the Empress Dowager."
Xin Lin thought for a mont and said.
In the "Mystical dicine Book," Chu Beiqing only noted that the woman died suddenly from the illness but did not directly write down the treatnt thod.
Looking at the lochia under the Empress Dowager’s abdon, Xin Lin saw it was dark brown, clearly a long-standing accumulation, shaped like a fetus.
Ordinary thods couldn’t expel the lochia, so only the normal birthing thod remained.
"What kind of treatnt is this? It’s pure nonsense."
The imperial physicians, hearing this, all bristled with anger.
To use abortion pills to expel lochia—such a treatnt thod, they had never heard of it!
Even Emperor Longteng hesitated.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager has fainted."
The old nanny beside them exclaid.
"Prescribe the dication."
Emperor Longteng’s eyes darkened, and he said coldly.
