Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the Qing palace, acupuncture was abolished in the imperial hospital since the Jiaqing period. The reason was related to the rebellion caused by the Tianli Sect and the eunuchs in the palace during the Jiaqing period.  The eunuchs rebelled, and Emperor Jiaqing and other people in the palace did not trust him. Especially the medical technique of acupuncture, where a slight deviation could kill a person. Therefore, Emperor Jiaqing was even more respectful of this treatment method, so Emperor Jiaqing  Ling Tai Hospital is no longer allowed to use acupuncture.

    An edict from the emperor is simple, but its impact on the art of acupuncture is far-reaching. The development and inheritance of acupuncture have been seriously affected by the trend of ups and downs. In addition, the family tradition of the Chinese people  There are many limitations to the craftsmanship, which ultimately led to the fact that in Xiao Yungui's time, very few acupuncture techniques were handed down, and many of them were lost.

    The Cheng family's acupuncture skills are indeed unique. Originally, the Cheng family also had ancestral teachings. This set of acupuncture methods was passed down to men but not to women. However, in Cheng Tieqiao's generation, his son and wife died early, and he only had to live with his granddaughter Cheng Lingxiu.  , with nothing to do, Cheng Tieqiao broke this ancestral system and passed on his medical skills and ancestral acupuncture methods to his granddaughter Cheng Lingxiu.

    Cheng Lingxiu was initially able to enter the palace because of Cixi's confidant Huang Jingci, who was the judge of the Taiyuan Hospital, and then helped in the Taiyuan Hospital.  When Xingzhen gave birth, Zeng Jin suffered from headaches due to overwork. By chance, Huang Jingci boldly recommended Cheng Lingxiu to use acupuncture to treat Xingzhen's headaches. After the first try, the acupuncture was a hit.  .  Xingzhen was overjoyed and asked Cheng Lingxiu to perform acupuncture specifically for her. This kind of disease caused during childbirth cannot be cured. Cheng Lingxiu combined the techniques of soup bath, medicinal diet and acupuncture.  Carefully taking care of Xingzhen's body has greatly prolonged the duration of the headache, and the headache is no longer excruciating.  But occasionally, Xingzhen still feels a dull pain when she uses her brain too much or doesn't get enough rest. At this time, she only needs to ask Cheng Lingxiu to come over and give her a few injections.

    Cheng Lingxiu raised her hand, gently inserted a silver needle into Xingzhen's Yingxiang point, and said softly: "Queen Mother, how do you feel?"

    ??

    Cheng Lingxiu replied obediently: "The Queen Mother has been overworking recently and not getting enough rest, which has caused old problems. She will be fine if she rests more and recuperates."

    Xingzhen hummed softly, and Cheng Lingxiu continued to apply acupuncture on Xingzhen's arm. At this time, An Dehai came in and said: "Queen Mother. The order from the Military Aircraft Department to transfer Jiang Zhongyuan to Guangdong has been drafted. Can we do it later?"  Stamped with approval?"

    Xingzhen opened her eyes slightly, and saw Cheng Lingxiu concentrating on acupuncture for herself. It seemed as if she didn't hear Andehai's words at all. Xingzhen closed her eyes and said calmly: "No, please read and listen to this  Gong listens, if it's nothing, just stamp it and transfer it to my sister, then stamp it and send it out, this matter can't be delayed."

    At that moment Ande Hai recited the edict softly.  That is to appoint Jiang Zhongyuan as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi to oversee the military and political affairs of suppressing bandits in Guangdong and Guangxi.  Control the civil and military affairs of the two provinces, etc.  The most important thing about acupuncture is to concentrate on it. If you are distracted, you will make mistakes. It should be noted that there will be dangers if you insert the needle incorrectly or use inappropriate force. After listening to this, Cheng Lingxiu still used the needle steadily and quickly, as if he did not use Ande Hai at all.  Listen to what you say.

    ??

    Andehai snorted and hurriedly went to do his errands.  Xingzhen turned her head and glanced at Cheng Lingxiu, then closed her eyes and said, "Lingxiu, you are fine. Ande Hai said so many things just now, but you were not distracted."

    Cheng Lingxiu groaned, then seemed to realize that Xingzhen was talking to her, and immediately said: "The Queen Mother is too flattering. Her adoptive father taught Lingxiu that there are certain words that she should not listen to or remember in the palace. Lingxiu has always remembered them.  Just do your part.¡±

    Xingzhen hummed and stopped talking.  After a while, Cheng Lingxiu finished acupuncture, pulled out the silver needles one by one, and whispered: "Your Majesty, the acupuncture is done. Has the pain been relieved?"

    Xingzhen hummed, slowly got up from the soft couch, put on her clothes and said, "The clever acupuncture technique is really amazing, it is really a hit. You are also dedicated in doing things, I will reward you with this." Xingzhen started from the beginning.  I took out a purple gold hairpin, which looked extremely expensive.

    Cheng Lingxiu hurriedly knelt down to thank her, took it happily, packed her things and left.

    After Xingzhen put on her clothes, Andehai walked in. Xingzhen sat aside and took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Do you think Cheng Lingxiu is a hairy spy?"

    An Dehai stepped forward to comb Xingzhen's hair and whispered: "I don't think it looks like this. If she is a spy, this edict is so important. She will definitely listen to it. She has read it so much just now."Miss Lingxiu didn't pause at all when applying the acupuncture. She kept focusing on the acupuncture, as if she wasn't listening at all.  "

    Xingzhen hummed and said, "But Shang Yu found out that Chang Mao sent Xizuo to the palace, so we still have to dig this person out."

    Ande Hai said with some worry: "Queen Mother, it was too dangerous for you to test with a body of a thousand gold just now. If Cheng Lingxiu is really careful, wouldn't it be very dangerous if the silver needle in her hand misses by half a point?"

    Xingzhen smiled faintly and said: "I don't believe Cheng Lingxiu. If she were really meticulous, the first few times of acupuncture would have killed me, why wait until today? Moreover, this woman looks innocent and careless.  It¡¯s not like it¡¯s a machine, it doesn¡¯t look like it¡¯s a meticulous work.¡±

    An Dehai arranged Xingzhen's hair into a bun and said, "Since Miss Cheng is not a spy, I think we should find out how this palace spy sent the news. As long as we can catch the person who sent the news, we can follow the clues.  Find out who the spy in the palace is."

    Xingzhen said calmly: "Cheng Lingxiu is the person next to me, so I have to investigate this person personally. You can just take care of the rest of the people on your own, and don't bother me anymore. But remember, I will investigate the palace  The spy must investigate in secret, and when he sees it, he will take it quietly without disturbing too much, especially his sister."

    Andehai hit him with a thousand words, lowered his head and bowed.  A slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

    Cheng Lingxiu returned to Taiyuan Hospital, took out a medical policy book and recorded Xingzhen¡¯s condition, the location of the acupuncture, etc. one by one, and saw no one around her.  So he used his own special concoction to select and write down the contents of today's edict that Andehai said. After it dried, he used this yellow paper page as a wrapping paper to wrap a portion of Angelica sinensis.  Cheng Lingxiu had a very good memory and was able to do two things at once, so when she was giving Xingzhen acupuncture, she could do two things. While giving Xingzhen the acupuncture, she was concentrating on the acupuncture while listening to Ande Hai's edict.  But she has always had little experience.  She didn't see that this was a test for her, so she wrote the message and prepared to send it out of the palace as soon as she came back.

    Cheng Lingxiu stepped forward and handed the Angelica sinensis to the on-duty judge of the Taiyuan Hospital. She frowned and said, "Mr. Chen. Many of the Angelica sinensis purchased here are dry, oil-free, brown-green in color, and cannot be used for medicine. I have already  Pick them all out, it must be that the apothecary did not pay attention to the heat when they were dried with fireworks. Return this angelica!"

    Judge Chen looked at it carefully.  Sure enough, these angelica roots were dry, oilless, brownish-green in color, and could not be used as medicine. He immediately agreed to return the medicine to the medicine envoy who purchased the medicinal materials, and took him out of the palace to the druggist for inspection, and warned the druggist to pay attention to the quality of the medicinal materials.

    After noon, the emissary who purchased the medicinal materials from outside the palace came back. Chen Yuanjian showed him the portion of Angelica sinensis. The emissary who purchased the medicinal materials was startled and hurriedly took it for inspection.  As expected, the packet of angelica root was all dry, oil-free, and brown-green in color. It is said that this kind of angelica root cannot be used as medicinal materials.  No matter how skilled the doctor is.  Medicines are also needed to cure diseases. Sometimes the quality of medicinal materials directly affects the effect of treatment. Tai Hospital has always attached great importance to the procurement of medicinal materials. If these inferior angelicas are not picked out, it will inevitably affect the efficacy of the medicine. The medicine envoy hurriedly took it and thanked her profusely.  , Chen Yuanjian didn¡¯t say much and just asked him to pay attention to drug testing in the future.

    Cheng Lingxiu smiled slightly and said nothing. She knew that the medicine envoy would hand over the package of medicine to the medicine shop, and that medicine shop was opened by Zhao Jia and Li Ding, so there was no need for Cheng Lingxiu to personally pay for it.  The palace can send the message out.

    Sure enough, in the evening of that day, the medicine envoy took the package of medicine and was about to leave the palace. When he arrived at the palace gate, there were naturally guards guarding the city to check whether everyone had any personal belongings hidden in the palace.  When he checked the medicine envoy, the guard noticed the package of medicine, opened it and saw that it was really a package of medicinal materials. The medicine envoy also said that there was something wrong with the package of angelica and he wanted to take it to the medicine dealer for inspection.

    An imperial physician who was accompanying him also looked at the Angelica sinensis and said that there was indeed something wrong with it. The guard also said the same thing when he saw the imperial physician. He did not understand medicinal materials, but when he saw that the paper containing the medicine was also empty, he let it go.

    The medicine envoy walked to the city gate, and several guards came out and took the medicine envoy down. Then he opened the package of medicinal materials, took an oil lamp and smoked it on the fire for a while, and saw that there was something on the yellow paper.  Slowly reveal the handwriting.

    The head guard looked happy, glanced at the medicine envoy, and said sternly: "Take it!" The medicine envoy was stunned when he saw that the paper containing the medicinal ingredients could show writing.  The guard immediately took it and blocked his mouth with walnuts.

    The guard took the piece of paper and went to the side room. He saw Ande Hai sipping tea leisurely. The guard stepped forward and said with a flattering smile: "Fortunately, Mr. An has checked dozens of documents for leaving the palace today."  The paper, indeed, has the words written by the hidden medicine on it."

    Anderhai glanced at the content above lightly, and said with a sinister expression on his face: "No one noticed."

    The guard said: "No one paid attention. Several brothers took him inside the city gate.Taken.  "

    An Dehai hummed, and said with a cold look on his face: "Interrogate the person overnight and ask the person who brought this thing to him, who gave it to him, and who will be handed over to outside the palace!"

    In front of the wolf-like guards, the medicine envoy told the truth at all. As a result, he found out that the person who gave the package of medicine was Chen Yuanpan of Taiyuan Hospital, and he only took it out and returned it to the pharmacist who supplied the medicine.  Andehai saw that after several severe tortures, the drug user was already dying and still crying out that he was wronged, and the person who confessed had not changed, so he knew that this person might not know anything about it and was just being used.  It's just that it's a little difficult to secretly arrest the judge of the Tai Hospital, but it seems easier to deal with the drug dealers outside the palace. At that moment, An Dehai ordered someone to pretend to be a drug dealer, and after taking the portion of Angelica, he still wrapped it in the paper  , went to the medicinal material shop in Mixiang, the eastern suburbs, to investigate.  (To be continued)
