Chapter 377: The Pharmacy Was Surrounded
Concubine Lin said, "Let's go and take some ginseng soup to the emperor. He should have left court by now."
Huaisu said, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will go to the imperial kitchen and get it."
She went out and asked a little palace maid to go to the imperial kitchen to get ginseng soup.
She took it and walked in: "My Lady."
Concubine Lin had changed into new clothes, and Huaisu followed her straight to the imperial study.
Arriving at the Imperial Study, Huaisu approached and said, "Eunuch Li, is the Imperial Concubine here to bring the Emperor some ginseng soup? Could you please let her know?"
Eunuch Li said with a smile, "Your Highness, it's been a long time since you've come. The Emperor will surely be very happy to know that you've come. Please wait a moment, Your Highness."
Eunuch Li walked into the imperial study.
Not long after, Eunuch Li came out and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the Emperor lets you in."
"Please excuse me, Eunuch Li."
Huaisu walked up to him and stuffed something into his hand.
Eunuch Li laughed even more happily.
Concubine Lin and Huaisu walked in.
Concubine Lin took out the ginseng soup and walked to the table and said softly: "Your Majesty, I am here to bring you the ginseng soup."
The emperor, who was bent over his desk, looked up and said, "My beloved concubine is here? It's been a long time since you brought me ginseng soup."
"I also wanted to send ginseng soup to His Majesty. I really couldn't go out to see people those few days."
She scooped a spoonful and wanted to feed it to the emperor.
The emperor didn't open his mouth but took it directly and said, "I'll do it myself."
Concubine Lin smiled and said, "I heard that the people whose faces were damaged by the trouble caused by Princess Yongcheng in recent days were all cured by the general's wife."
The emperor took a few sips and said, "Yes, Wang Jingshan's wife is indeed a skilled doctor. It was she who developed the potion to kill the locusts during the locust plague."
Concubine Lin asked curiously, "Really? Then how did the Emperor reward her for such a great contribution?"
The emperor thought for a moment and said, "It seems that he gave me some silver as a reward."
Concubine Lin smiled and walked behind the emperor, then gently massaged his shoulders with her slender jade fingers.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctors in the palace are all men. It's always inconvenient for us concubines to consult them when we are sick. How about letting her be the female doctor?"
The emperor raised his hand and patted his shoulder and said, "I'm afraid that won't work. After all, she is a general's wife. How can a general's wife come to the palace every day for medical treatment?"
After hearing this, Concubine Lin said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, what should we do about the problems we women face? Even if we ask her to enter the palace, it doesn't seem like a long-term solution."
The Emperor said, "What should we do? My beloved concubine, do you have a better idea?"
Concubine Lin said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, I am stupid, how can I find a solution? Your Majesty is smart, so he will definitely find a way."
The emperor smiled and said, "Okay, I understand."
Concubine Lin was a person who could read people's expressions very well. She immediately said, "Your Majesty, please go on with your work. I will take my leave now."
The emperor nodded and said, "I'll come to see you again tonight."
Concubine Lin took Huaisu out of the imperial study.
On the way back.
Just then, I saw Concubine Li and her maid walking towards this side.
Concubine Li was of lower rank than Concubine Lin, so she could only bow and say, "My concubine greets the Concubine."
Concubine Lin looked at Concubine Li and said, "Where are you going, sister Li?"
Concubine Li said, "Nothing important, just a casual walk around. Where did Concubine Gui go?"
Concubine Lin smiled and said, "Then you don't have to worry about it."
He took Huaisu away.
Jin Yuyao from the General's Mansion thought that she had nothing to do this morning, so she rested at home.
Uncle Fu came in panting just after dinner and said, "Madam, Doctor Zhao is here and he's outside?"
Jin Yuyao said, "Let him in."
A quarter of an hour later, Doctor Zhao came in.
"Ma'am, are you free this morning?"
Jin Yuyao asked in confusion, "Is there nothing going on today? What's the matter with Doctor Zhao coming here at this time?"
Doctor Zhao said, "Madam General, I'm sorry to bother you. Could you please come with me? The pharmacy is crowded with people, and they're calling for you to see them. Zhao Jinzhi has explained it to them, but it's not working.
I happened to be there today when I had nothing to do and saw this scene. That's why I came to see you."
Jin Yuyao said, "Didn't we already inform them that they would only be seeing patients in the afternoon?"
Doctor Zhao said helplessly, "Those patients simply won't listen. Most of them have come from far away and have to rush back this afternoon."
Jin Yuyao explained: "I can go to the emergency room today, but it's better to find a doctor in the clinic in the future. After all, I am sometimes very busy."
Doctor Zhao nodded and said, "Thank you for taking care of me today. I'll find another doctor."
"Then let's leave quickly."
Jin Yuyao took Wenzhu and Doctor Zhao onto the carriage.
When we arrived at the pharmacy, we got off the car and saw that the entrance was already blocked by people.
Zhao Jinzhi was explaining to them, but they weren't listening at all, and his voice was drowned out by the noise.
One of the patients said loudly, "We've been here for so long. When will Dr. Jin come? He can't make us wait for the whole morning in vain. I didn't know he would come in the afternoon. We came from somewhere else."
"Yes, we came here because we heard that she is a good doctor. What do you mean by making excuses? We have to go back this afternoon."
Seeing this scene, Jin Yuyao said, "Wenzhu will be by my side soon. With so many people around, I'm afraid someone might get mixed up among them. Protect me as I go in."
Wen Zhu nodded and walked forward and said, "Everyone, make way. Doctor Jin is here. You have to let her in so she can see the patient!"
How can you all block Doctor Jin's way in?"
The group of people seemed not to hear anything and just kept making noise and refused to give way.
Doctor Zhao was also a little anxious.
At this time, Jin Yuyao whispered a few words in Wenzhu's ear.
Wen Zhu said loudly, "Please make way. If this continues, Dr. Jin won't be able to get in and see you. Please line up properly or Dr. Jin won't see you today."
Some people queued up very consciously.
Some are still watching.
Only then did they have a little space, and under Wenzhu's protection, they walked in with difficulty. Jin Yuyao stood on the steps and said, "Since everyone is a patient, please line up, otherwise it will waste everyone's time.
Today, no one who doesn't line up will be seen. Wenzhu will be watching here. If there's any trouble, they'll be reported directly to the authorities. Okay, I'll start seeing patients now."
The first person to come in was a young woman holding a thin child.
Looking at the woman's clothes, although they had patches on them, they were very clean.
Jin Yuyao asked, "Is the child sick?"
The woman choked up and said, "The child is severely burned all over. I beg you to take a look at her quickly."
Jin Yuyao touched the child's forehead and found it was very hot.
"When did the fever start?"
The woman said, "It started last night. We can't afford other clinics, so we had to come here. The medicine here is cheaper. Doctor Jin, how is the child? They say there's no hope. Is that true?"
Jin Yuyao saw that the child was breathing rapidly. Fortunately, he did not have a convulsion. If he had, it would have been even more troublesome.
She took out a silver needle and gave the child a few injections.
Then he took out a pill from his pocket and said, "Give it to her. Don't leave yet and observe."
