Practicing Medicine in Three Kingdoms

As soon as the word "arsenic/shuang" was uttered, even the well-informed Cao Pi also changed his expression.

His lips were pursed into a thin line, and he held back his surprise when he caught a glimpse of Li Yinzhou's calm expression. If he really wanted to kill someone by poisoning, then this method would be too inferior and too casual.

Cao Pi restrained his expression, and his eyes were quiet: "Mr.'s prescription is written like this."

Cao Cao's eyes were indifferent, and he didn't think it was a big deal. He reached out and took it, as if looking at something strange that had nothing to do with him: "Arsenic/Frost is poison, but it can also be used as medicine?"

Li Yinzhou calmly explained one by one: "Poison and medicine are two sides of the same thing. Ginseng benefits Qi, but summer use is poison. Although arsenic/cream is highly poisonous, it can poison and kill pathogens. As long as the dosage is properly controlled , using this prescription can extend the life of the prime minister."

Cao Cao glanced at him: "Then how long can it last?"

Li Yinzhou lowered his eyes respectfully: "Prime Minister is a man of destiny, so you must not judge arbitrarily."

The smile on Cao Cao's face remained unchanged.

"Destiny?" He savored the word playfully, slowly scratched the few words on the sheepskin with his fingertips, and his gaze fell on Li Yinzhou's face through the candlelight, as if he could see through the flesh and bones of people.

The young man's tricky answer is certainly impeccable, it not only pleases his mind, but also avoids the real offending answer.

"It's a pity..." He looked up at the endless night sky and the flowing rivers outside the window, his eyes were extremely calm, "I don't believe in fate."

Cao Pi's obedient expression shook.

Li Yinzhou still lowered his head politely. It doesn't matter whether Cao Cao believes in his fate or not, as long as he believes in himself is enough.

Sure enough, Cao Cao lazily threw the prescription on the case, and the next sentence was: "Your words are not enough to convince Gu, arsenic/cream is highly poisonous, you have to prove that your dosage will not harm Gu."

If there are specific requirements, it will be much easier to answer.

Li Yinzhou had already prepared the answer to this question.

The peripheral vision of the line of sight met Cao Pi's cautious gaze for a moment, and then he turned his eyes and stared straight ahead.

His expression was rendered gentle and soft in the lights, but it was also a bit blurred.

Careful Cao Pi even noticed a malicious smirk in it.

"If Cao Gong wants to know whether the dosage of a certain drug is appropriate, it is better to find someone to test the medicine together. If he takes double the dose and his life is safe, then Cao Gong does not have to worry."

As soon as Cao Cao said this, before Cao Cao agreed, the tip of Cao Pi's nose twitched suddenly, and he clearly smelled a deception in it——

This clearly shows that he was forced to be the filial son of this drug test.

Cao Zijian is very poisonous in employing people!

As soon as he raised his head, he saw that Cao Cao was sizing up his eldest son with a half-smile and half-smile eyes, and his old green eyes were obviously colder, as if he was asking him why he didn't stand up and respond immediately.

The cool and slippery summer wind blew across the back, causing cold ripples on the thin cold sweat.He couldn't help shivering, and was forced to take up the words: "... If the prime minister needs someone to test the poison, I would rather that person be myself. I am the prime minister's parent-child, so I must be closer in physique than others."

After all, he is the eldest son who was trained/taught by Cao Cao. He has adjusted his emotions in the blink of an eye, and his tone is frank and sincere, showing no reluctance to be forced to helplessness.

He stood with his hands folded, his face deeply buried, afraid that if he raised his eyes again, the discontent in his eyes would be revealed.

After a while, I heard a faint sound from above my head: "Forget it, you are Gu's eldest son, how can you put yourself in danger? Since Mr. Zhou is so confident, why don't you ask Master Hua Tuo to take medicine together with Gu."

Hearing this, Cao Pi secretly let out a long sigh of relief as if he had received an amnesty.

The light that appeared in the corner of his eyes suddenly condensed.

He thought that his good brother Cao Zijian put on an innocent face, but his vicious thoughts were hard to guard against.

But this week Zimu could be considered a steal.

He couldn't help turning his eyes, but saw that the young man was still standing upright with a calm face.That always calm expression almost bored him, as if he was peeling off the opponent's tricks layer by layer, but there was always a deeper trap waiting for him.

This time Li Yinzhou seemed to be going against his will again, so he didn't continue to argue, but just nodded without saying a word, raised his hand and put away the prescriptions spread out on the case.

After talking with the young man for a while, Cao Cao rubbed his forehead wearily, and ordered the attendant to say, "Let Mrs. Huan come, she is the quietest."

Cao Pi resigned obediently.

Li Yinzhou's unchanging, calm eyes were thoughtful.

If I remember correctly, the token that was handed over to Cao Cao and Sun Fu was exactly a jade ring, which made it hard not to associate it with reverie.

This name is also somewhat familiar.

……

Mrs. Huan, who is famous for her tranquility, is being favored, and now she lives in the small courtyard closest to Duke Cao. As soon as she got the order, she combed her hair, held a dulcimer, and Shi Shi Tayue came.

The young gentleman just closed the door and exited.

The door was slowly closed, and the warm candlelight faded from his handsome cheeks, and a thin layer of frost fell on his narrow eyebrows.

As if feeling the staring gaze, he turned his head inadvertently, and Ye Lan rolled up his thin underwear, flying away soundlessly.

Separated by the wide sleeves of the white clothes, the eyes of the two fell apart for a moment, and finally passed for a moment in the empty moonlight——

"lady."

The hasty call suddenly brought her back to reality from the insignificant encounter. The voice was full of real and familiar kitsch: "Cao Gonggong is waiting for you."

The night wind stopped for a while, the moonlight fell silent, and the man's clear figure stood silently in place.

Mrs. Huan's hand holding the piano tightly clasped the strings.

She hurriedly walked over the steps in front of the door with her head bowed, and stopped for a moment in the complicated eyes of the gentleman who hesitated to speak.

But after all, she didn't turn her head, didn't say a word, but after the other party slowly pulled away her doubts and politely nodded her head to say goodbye, she told the maid: "It's windy at night, remember to add a coat to sir."

----------------

The next day.

With Cao Cao's permission, Li Yinzhou began to make prescriptions.

In addition to arsenic/cream, light powder and toad venom are also deadly and highly poisonous. This prescription requires extremely careful proportioning.

This method was originally a secret recipe for folk treatment of blood cancer.

In the distant modern life, he had dabbled in relevant knowledge by chance, so he boldly extended it to the field of brain tumors, but he did not expect it to be effective.

But in the end, it can only prolong life.

The greasy touch on his hand jumped vigorously, forcing him to take back his reverie and pay attention to the work in his hand. Only then did he observe that the gadget in his palm had been stimulated by the hard things to produce white mucus all over his body, so he took the pottery and scraped it away carefully. Looks like a dirty baby.

"Zimu wants us to catch Toad, just for this?"

Cao Zhi, who has read the Book of Songs well, has never seen these folk acrobatics.

He didn't think it was dirty, and watched the process of making medicine with great interest.

Li Yinzhou threw the used toads back into the pond, and roasted pottery pieces with thin flames to make toad cakes.This simple step cannot be completed in a moment or two. Cao Zhi's layman's curiosity was baked under the hot and poisonous sun, and most of it evaporated.

Yang Xiu could tell at a glance that he was impatient, coughed lightly and gave a step: "The Prime Minister's Southern Expedition is coming soon, Zi Jian, you should read more military books, and you may be able to advise the Prime Minister on the battlefield in the future."

Cao Zhigang was bored watching, so he said goodbye to the two with a smile.

In such a hot weather, the willow branches are exhausted in the steaming, and one after another lazily brushes out a circle of gathering and dispersing ripples.

Yang Xiu's voice was chillingly cold: "Who are you?"

Li Yinzhou concentrated on observing the fire under the pottery shards. Without fine instruments and clear figures, all subtle changes can only be distinguished with the naked eye, and there is no room for distraction.

After the color of the toad has faded and the color is new, he stands up and blows away the ashes on the pottery.

Seeing that he seemed to have no intention of talking, Yang Xiu endured the displeasure in his heart, and said: "You deliberately said those words in front of the prime minister to provoke the relationship between the two of them. Zi Huan was originally a suspicious person. Now You must feel that Zijian is always competing with him and embarrassing him! What is your purpose in doing this?"

As the chief bookkeeper, it is easy for him to know what happened last night.

Li Yinzhou sneaked a sideways glance at him in his busy schedule.

He actually showed a puzzled expression: "Aren't they in a rivalry?"

Yang Xiu was choked speechless by these words.

If they were really brothers and sisters, why would they be suspicious of each other because of a strange outsider?The brothers have been fighting against each other for a long time, but they have never confronted each other on the surface——

Maybe already relative.

But he didn't catch the handle.

Since he couldn't prove that the killer who assassinated Cao Zhi that day was Cao Pi's subordinate, he could only endure the calm for a while.But before it was time to settle accounts after the fall, Zhou Yin's deeds tore away the appearance of peace ahead of time, and pushed the years of dark waves between the brothers to a climax.

Now Cao Pi suspects that Cao Zhi deliberately sent Zhou Yin to trip him.

He, Yang Xiu, also gradually suspected that this person was Cao Pi's secret agent.

This week Zimu was caught between the two factions, not only did he not suffer at all, but he got along very well, playing tricks on both of them.

Yang Xiu frowned deeply: "You don't have to use eloquent words to deceive me, it won't do you any good to disturb a pool of muddy water, Cao Gong is not someone you can play with, I advise you to restrain yourself in the future .”

Throwing out these threatening words, as if to fuel his momentum, the warm summer wind suddenly became frenzied, wrinkling the calm water waves in the pool, faintly stirring up broken waves.

There was a thunderclap.

The torrential rain poured down.

Neither of the two expected the weather to change in the blink of an eye. The cold wind and rain patted their heads, making the tense atmosphere fall into silence.

Raindrops dripped down from Yang Xiu's eyebrows, and through the water curtain, he gave a warning eye knife, turned around and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

Li Yinzhou sighed.

After hearing Yang Xiu's nagging, the freshly baked toad pastry was soaked in rain, so they had to start all over again.

……

After working overtime for two days, this soup was boiled out.

The first bowl was generously sent to the prison.

Li Yinzhou wasn't really worried about this. The clothes he left for Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo that day contained pre-prepared detoxifying charcoal powder. The two offset each other, and the impact on the body would not be great.

Sure enough, within two days, the freshly baked decoction was delivered to Cao Cao's room.

Just when the few people who knew about it were worried and couldn't sleep at night, another thunderous news came from Yecheng——

Sun Quan refused to surrender.

He formed an alliance with Liu Bei, and appointed Zhou Yu and Lu Su as the left and right governors.

Come and fight.
