When Ying Zheng heard that Feng Ye was ill, he hurriedly ran out of the palace gate with Hu Yu and ran quickly to the stables.
Yesterday, when we went to King Wu's Mausoleum, Ying Zheng rode an ordinary war horse and left Maple Leaf in the palace, but he hadn't seen her for just a day, so why did he get sick?
However, Ying Zheng did not blame Hu Yu because he knew that Hu Yu had taken good care of Maple Leaf. After all, she was still pregnant.
What's more, the weather is quite cold, and it is normal for the horses to get sick.
"What was its condition yesterday?" Ying Zheng asked, looking at Hu Yu.
"It was quite good yesterday." Hu Yu's eyes moved slightly, "In the past few days, he has eaten a little less than before, but he is in good spirits. But when I went to see him this morning, he fell ill. I can’t even pull it up.”
Ying Zheng frowned, slowed down his steps, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "Wait a minute, I'll go find Li Si and ask him to give Maple Leaf a checkup first."
"Yeah!" Hu Yu nodded.
At this time, Zhao Gao also followed from behind, holding a cotton coat in his hand.
Ying Zheng was in a hurry to go out and forgot his cotton-padded clothes. Zhao Gao found the cotton-padded clothes and followed him.
Ying Zheng put on his cotton-padded clothes while walking and said to Zhao Gao: "Let's go and accompany the widow to find Mr."
Zhao Gao responded and quickly rushed to Li Si's dormitory with Ying Zheng.
Li Si was about to go out when he bumped into Ying Zheng.
"Sir, what are you going to do?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Go to Master, the king is in such a hurry, could something have happened?" Li Si said.
"Master, I will go with you later." Ying Zheng said, "Maple Leaf is sick, let's take a look at it first."
Li Si knew Maple Leaf's position in Ying Zheng's heart and responded directly: "Okay, let's go."
The three people went out to pick up Hu Yu and headed to the stables together.
Because he didn't want Hu Yu to leave too quickly, Ying Zheng ordered Li Si and Zhao Gao to go to the stables first, while he accompanied Hu Yu and slowed down behind.
"Your Majesty, I'm fine, let's leave quickly." Hu Yu said eagerly.
Ying Zheng was also anxious, but after all, the fetus in Hu Yu's belly was more important, so he comforted him: "Don't be impatient. They have already passed by. If we follow them, we will disturb Mr. Maple Leaf's medical treatment. Don't worry, I." I won’t let anything happen to Maple Leaf.”
After Ying Zheng said this, Hu Yu's mood calmed down, and he took Ying Zheng's hand and rushed to the stable together.
The two came to the stable and saw Maple Leaf lying on his side. Li Si was holding Maple Leaf's tongue between his index and middle fingers, and his eyes were watching Maple Leaf's face.
Zhao Gao observed the floating frequency of the horse's belly and the condition of the four snow-white horse hooves.
Ying Zheng did not disturb him, but just watched with Hu Yu.
Li Si retracted his arm, checked Maple Leaf's breathing again, and rolled Maple Leaf's eyelids.
Maple Leaf was very well-behaved, and seemed to understand that Li Si was looking after it, without any intention of resisting.
Li Si stretched out his hand to explore Maple Leaf's armpits again, then stood up and came to Ying Zheng's side.
"Sir, how is Maple Leaf?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Maple Leaf is fine." Li Si replied.
"Then what disease does it have?" Hu Yu asked.
Li Si took a piece of cloth, wiped his hands, and said: "Maple Leaf has come a long way and is a little acclimated to the climate. Plus, it misses its owner, so its mood is not very stable. It will take a long time to adapt to the climate and climate here. Water and soil."
"But now, it just so happens that it's winter again. The young grass has been eaten and hay has been replaced. Maple Leaf's spleen and stomach are even more uncomfortable, so she got sick."
It doesn't sound like a big deal.
"Sir," Hu Yu said dubiously, "I know you are very good at treating human diseases, but treating horse diseases must be very different."
"What do you know?" Ying Zheng was fighting from the side.
Hu Yu said, "The mechanism by which animals and people get sick is the same. If you can treat people, you can naturally cure Maple Leaf."
"Haha, madam, don't worry." Li Si said with a smile, "As the king said, the mechanisms of disease in humans and animals are the same. Maple Leaf is just suffering from poor excretion due to internal fire, resulting in loss of appetite."
"Uh..." Ying Zheng scratched the back of his head and said, "Sir, what you mean is that Maple Leaf... is mainly constipated?"
"Yeah!" Li Si nodded.
"Huh..." Hu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Then how to treat it?"
"Weichen will give Maple Leaf acupuncture treatment to help him expel the dry feces in his abdomen." Li Si said, "But treating the symptoms does not cure the root cause, and we need to treat him fundamentally."
"How to adjust it?" Ying Zheng asked.
Li Si thought for a while and said: "First of all, as for the fodder, you can no longer just feed hay, but also some green grass. If you can replace it all with green grass, that would be the best. Secondly, it is best to build a separate stable for it and Let the reins be as long as possible to give it a wider range of movement, and finally, the king must cooperate and give it some medicine."
"How can we cooperate?" Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked, "How?"
"We need to use some raw grain seeds." Li Si cupped his hands and said, "When the time comes, we'd better ask the master."
"Okay!" Ying Zheng said, "Then I would like to trouble you, sir, to give Maple Leaf acupuncture to remove all the dried feces from his body, and then we can go find the master."
"Wei Chen accepts the order." Li Si handed over his hand and exited the stable to get the medical needle.
Ying Zheng turned to look at Zhao Gao and said, "Zhao Gao, find someone immediately to build a separate stable for Maple Leaf. It must be spacious and clean. Do you understand?"
"I accept the order." Zhao Gao also responded with his hands raised and hurried out.
Ying Zheng looked at Hu Yu again, and his tone became much softer: "Why don't you go back and have a rest first? It's cold, so don't hurt the fetus."
"No." Hu Yu said a little coquettishly, "I won't go back, I want to see Maple Leaf get better."
Ying Zheng knew that he couldn't resist Hu Yu, so he had no choice but to say, "Then you wait here for a while. I'll order someone to bring more clothes. It's cold in the morning, so wear more clothes."
"Yes." Hu Yu nodded obediently.
Ying Zheng went out and ordered his maid to get more clothes and chairs.
Hu Yu came to Fengye alone, squatted down with his belly in his hands, stroked Fengye's bright red mane, and said very softly: "Fengye, be good, you will be fine in a while, just be patient for now. Sir, his medical skills are very good, I heard that he can heal people who are dying."
"And the king, he is going to build you a more comfortable stable, which belongs only to you. From now on, your new home will be spacious and clean, and you will no longer have to smell the stench of other horses, hehe."
Hu Yu was mumbling to himself when Ying Zheng came back with his maids.
Several eunuchs brought back a few chairs and placed them in the stables, and then worked with the grooms to clean the stables.
Several maids brought some clothes, and Ying Zheng picked one and put it on Hu Yu.
Two more eunuchs followed, carrying a stove into the stable. After lighting it, the inside of the stable gradually became warm.
Several war horses nearby saw this and seemed uneasy. The grooms led the restless horses out of the stables.
Not long after, Li Si came back, holding the wooden box for needlework, and came to Maple Leaf's side.
Li Si pressed Maple Leaf's inner lower abdomen with his hand, then smoothed it from front to back a few times, and then took out the silver needle.
I saw Li Si's wrist flipping up and down, and his left and right hands cooperated smoothly, and he began to move the needle on Maple Leaf's abdomen, back, and thighs.
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si's needle without blinking, for fear of missing every detail.
According to Ying Zheng’s understanding, if these acupuncture points are compared on a human body, they should
It's Tanzhong, Zusanli and other acupoints. I don't know if it's the same on Ma's body.
Li Si didn't prick many acupuncture points with silver needles. After pricking a few acupuncture points, he mainly moved the needle on one acupuncture point on the horse's belly for a long time.
At this time, Zhao Gao was carrying a
Bucket rushed back.
"Sir, I brought what you asked for." Zhao Gao placed the barrel on the ground. It was filled with light brown water, and there was not a strong heat rising from it.
"Did you bring the funnel?" Li Si stood up and came to Zhao Gao's side.
"Bring it."
Zhao Gao looked behind him and saw two little eunuchs coming over holding a leather pipe, a funnel and a water ladle respectively.
"Okay, fill this bucket of water into its belly bit by bit." Li Si pointed at the bucket and made a water-filling gesture.
"Sir," Ying Zheng said, "What kind of water is this?"
"This is medicine prepared for Maple Leaf. Its main function is to help with diarrhea and flatulence." Li Si said, "When Weichen and Zhao Gao went out just now, Weichen asked Zhao Gao to help prepare it."
After hearing what Li Si said, Hu Yu subconsciously covered his nose.
Perhaps it is the nature of all girls to be afraid of smells.
"Then it... won't suffer any side effects from this, right?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Physical energy may be affected a little," Li Si said. "But if you supplement it with more nutrients and keep it safe for a while, you should be fine."
"Okay, what do we need to do?" Ying Zheng rolled up his sleeves, looking like he wanted to step forward and lend a hand.
"King, you just need to stay by Maple Leaf and make it obey." Li Si said.
"Okay." Ying Zheng responded, squatting next to Feng Ye's ear and whispering a few words softly.
Li Si found a wooden stick, pried open Maple Leaf's mouth, and then placed the wooden stick across its mouth.
A little eunuch also squatted down and held Maple Leaf's head.
Maple Leaf seemed to understand Ying Zheng's words and did not resist at all. He just blinked at the people in front of him curiously.
Zhao Gao took the leather tube, put one end into Maple Leaf's mouth, and raised the other end with his other hand.
The eunuch holding the funnel placed the funnel on the leather tube that Zhao Gao raised.
Another younger eunuch took a ladle of potion with water and poured it into the funnel.
The potion flowed into Maple Leaf's mouth along the leather tube.
Not sure whether it was thirsty or the potion prepared by Li Si suited its taste, Maple Leaf drank the scooped potion in one go.
Hu Yu cheered him up and said, "Fengye, be good, you'll be fine after taking the medicine, you'll be fine soon."
Maple Leaf stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, then looked at Hu Yu and blinked.
"Continue." Li Si turned his head and said to the young eunuch holding the ladle of water.
The little eunuch nodded, filled another ladle of water, and poured it into the leather tube.
Maple Leaf drank again and drank all the potion in the bucket.
As soon as he finished drinking the medicine, he heard a sound in Maple Leaf's belly, and then let out a long series of loud farts, which made the groom behind him feel dizzy.
The groom's name was Liu Shun. Although he covered his nose with his hand, he still smiled and patted Maple Leaf's hindquarters and said, "Let it out, let it out, and the disease will be cured soon."
Is this the origin of the so-called flattery?
Before he finished speaking, there was another sound under Maple Leaf's tail.
Liu Shun didn't say anything at this time, he didn't even dare to breathe.
"Hahaha..." Looking at Liu Shun's expression, Hu Yu covered his stomach and bent over with laughter.
Li Si stepped forward, pulled out all the silver needles from Maple Leaf, and said loudly: "Be prepared, Maple Leaf may send out dirt."
This time, even Hu Yu covered his nose and ran away.
