Although Shen Tianshu had repeatedly emphasized it, the old man's signs of rapid improvement still gave his family very optimistic expectations. They even felt that Zhang Muqiu's regular pulse diagnosis in the morning and evening was a bit fussy.
But less than three days after changing the prescription, what Shen Tianshu was worried about happened.
The old man started to feel uncomfortable, his stomach was full and he couldn't eat anything.
Zhang Muqiu hurriedly asked someone to deliver a letter to Shen Tianshu.
Shen Tianshu had considered this situation before, and took the time to rush over to check the old man's pulse. After asking a few more questions, he went out to study the condition with Zhang Muqiu.
"After changing the medicine, my stomach started to bloate and I couldn't eat. What do you think is going on?"
Zhang Muqiu thought about the pulse table for a moment and said, "Is it because the patient has stasis in his stomach, so he cannot take supplements, and he becomes full and uncomfortable when he takes supplements?"
"That's what I thought about it, too." Shen Tianshu nodded in agreement with her idea, "Then tell me, how should I adjust this recipe?"
"We can't continue to supplement. We must remove Codonopsis pilosula." Zhang Muchiu said hesitantly, "If you want to improve the bloating, you should use hawthorn and safflower?"
"Well, that's right, you can add some peach kernels."
After Shen Tianshu finished speaking, he asked, "Have you found any other problems during your pulse tests these past few days?"
Zhang Muqiu shook his head hesitantly and said, "I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I think it's almost the same as what you wrote in your previous pulse report..."
"I just checked my pulse, and I feel that the old man's pulse is a little weak."
Zhang Muqiu suddenly understood: "No wonder you asked him if he had back pain."
"Yes, since he got sores on his mouth and tongue, he has often suffered from inexplicable back pain, so the source of his yang deficiency is probably in his kidneys.
"Kidney yang is deficient and fire does not return, so it is time to..."
"Take fire and return to origin!"
"That's right." Shen Tianshu nodded, "And I never understood why the old man had both yang and yin deficiency before. Now it seems that the root cause of stomach yin deficiency is also likely to be kidney yin deficiency."
Shen Tianshu said, revised the prescription and gave it to Zhang Muqiu, "It's still the same as before, take the medicine once a day, stop taking it and tell me if there is anything wrong.
"The patient is too old, so we must be extra cautious."
Shen Tianshu visited the old man and then visited the young couple.
"Your condition has stabilized. There is no need to continue taking medicine. You can go home at any time."
As soon as she heard Shen Tianshu's words, the little wife's tears fell instantly.
She protected her belly with both hands and couldn't stop crying, venting all the worries and grievances she had accumulated in her heart these days.
The husband was at a loss and didn't know how to comfort his wife.
Shen Tianshu turned around and went out, closing the door for them.
She has done all she can do, and the rest cannot be cured by doctors. They need to heal each other as husband and wife.
After reviewing the two patients in the hospital, Shen Tianshu ordered: "Xiu'er, go tell Deng Hao to prepare a car and prepare the medicine box. I want to go out."
Deng Hao quickly prepared the carriage. Gao Xiuer carried the medicine box and followed Shen Tianshu into the carriage, then listened to her instructions: "Go to the Han family."
Although it wasn't time for a follow-up consultation yet, Shen Tianshu thought that it was almost time. Since he was out, he might as well go directly to Han's house.
See if Han Changran's condition improves after taking medicine and applying medicine. If not, it's best to adjust the medicine prescription in time.
But what Shen Tianshu didn't know was that the atmosphere in the Han family was very anxious at this time.
Qian Poxin just returned from investigating the case at Tianen Temple yesterday and learned that Han Changran had returned to Wuchang Mansion.
This coincidence in time made him inevitably suspicious. Could it be that he had fallen into Li Zian's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?
But Tianen Temple did find out information about the reincarnation medicine.
Li Zian shouldn't be so crazy that just to lure him away, he would throw out something like the reincarnation potion that might cause his head to fall off if it's not easy to use.
But now that he knew Han Changran was back, he should pay him a visit.
Before leaving the house, Qian Poxin suddenly thought and called Liu Xukun along with him.
After Qian Poxin arrived at the Han family, he sat with Han Changran for a long time and then proposed: "Mr. Han has been ill for so long, why not let Dr. Liu take a look at it?"
Han Changran had expected that he would be like this, so he used the words he had thought of in advance: "Thank you, Mr. Qian, for taking the trouble, but my father has a stubborn temper, and now he only trusts Mrs. Tong and refuses to use other doctors."
Qian Poxin immediately said: "Hey, Mr. Han's words are wrong.
“As old people get older, their tempers do tend to be a bit weird.
"But as children, we can't just obey. We still have to put the health of the elderly first.
"Yi Liu is usually in charge of Princess Fengrong's health, so he must be more experienced in dealing with elderly patients.
"It's my fault too. I didn't know about this before. Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken Dr. Liu out to investigate the case. I would have asked him to come and treat Mr. Han earlier."
As soon as he said this, Han Changran became a little passive.
Liu Xukun was not only an imperial physician, but also an imperial physician sent by the emperor to treat Concubine Fengrong.
How could he refuse?
Could it be that the imperial doctors who could treat Princess Fengrong were not qualified to treat Mr. Han?
Doesn’t it seem like he and the Han family are too crazy?
Fortunately, at this critical moment, a servant suddenly came to report: "Sir, Mrs. Tong is here, saying she is here for a follow-up consultation."
The servants of the Han family did not know about Han Changran's condition and always thought that it was Mr. Han who was sick.
So although Mrs. Tong didn't make an appointment in advance, she was told that if she happened to go out for something today, she would come over and have a look. She couldn't turn people away.
Han Changran didn't know much about Lady Tong's character. After hearing this, he didn't know whether to be happy or more worried.
On the contrary, Han Guangtao was smart and quickly sent someone to notify Li Zian.
He had already asked Li Zian for help once before in order to lure Qian Poxin away so that Han Changran could go home smoothly.
So this time Qian Poxin took the initiative to visit him, and he was really embarrassed to bother him again.
But now that Lady Tong is here, things will immediately change.
Although he didn't know why, he felt very confident that Li Zian would come over immediately after receiving the news.
Shen Tianshu also didn't expect that a follow-up consultation he had decided on the spur of the moment would encounter such a complicated scene.
However, facing Qian Poxin, she did not show any stage fright. Instead, she asked directly with a smile: "How is the young master of Qian's family doing recently? There should be no health problems after changing the wet nurse, right?"
Only then did Qian Poxin remember that Lady Tong had saved his son before, and his aura instantly calmed down a lot: "The little guy may have eaten recently, and he has grown white and fat. It's all thanks to Lady Tong."
