Song Yi

Chapter 270 Remaining life after catastrophe
The correct way to rescue people is to dive into the water when the distance is about two meters from the drowning person. Armpit, so that it is convenient to use force, so that the head of the drowning person can be lifted out of the water smoothly, and it can also avoid being hugged by the drowning person.Once the drowning person is lifted out of the water, swim backwards to the shore in a backstroke position.

Du Wenhao knows all these methods, but he has never actually saved anyone, nor has he ever swam in the middle of winter, but he has no choice. The princess drowned, and he couldn't speak clearly because his mouth was covered all over. If someone said that he pushed the eldest princess to drown in the lake, he would really be unable to bear it and walk away.The emperor will not listen to his defense.

Besides, even if there is no such concern, even if it is not the eldest princess who fell into the water, but just an ordinary peasant woman, as a college student with a higher education, I am familiar with many heroic deeds who have done justice and bravely. For doctors, the first rule of medical ethics is not to ignore death, no matter whether it is related to medical skills or not.

Therefore, Du Wenhao quickly threw off his official hat and robe, leaving only a pair of underpants (pants were not invented in the Song Dynasty, but he designed them for Yingzi to help sew them. I always feel uncomfortable without underpants).Just as he was about to rush over and jump into the ice hole to save others, he stopped suddenly. ——The rescue of people in ice holes is different from that in ordinary lakes. The ice around the ice holes is easy to break, and the limbs are stiff due to the cold. It is not easy for the drowning person and the rescuer to climb up.People who have not undergone long-term winter swimming training will lose consciousness in about 10 minutes in icy water, and will freeze to death in less than half an hour.Therefore, how to get out of the ice water environment as soon as possible is also the key to saving people.

As soon as he turned around, he saw the two horses still standing in place. He immediately had an idea, ran over and pulled out the single knife on the saddle, and cut off the ends of the reins of the two horses near the horse's head. He came to the ice cave with the reins, tied the two reins with the scabbard and threw them into the ice cave, then took a deep breath, and flew into the ice cave.

When he was on the ice, he took off the bone-chilling ice and jumped into the water, but he didn't feel too cold all of a sudden. He plunged into the water with a swish, and soon hit the bottom of the lake.It is only half an arrow away from the lake. The depth of the lake is less than ten feet. The water quality is very good, and the visibility in broad daylight is also good. He stabilized his body and immediately found a white thing at the bottom of the water, and a belt floating along the water. , - it must be the eldest princess.

Du Wenhao dived over, sure enough.He stopped a few feet away and saw her motionless. He must have just fallen from a rock more than ten feet high and smashed the ice layer. Under the violent shock and choking water, she passed out.

This would be beneficial to the rescue, but Du Wenhao approached her carefully, grabbed her shoulders, stepped on the water and lifted her up, and soon came out of the water.

The eldest princess was still unconscious. Du Wenhao tried his best to lift her onto the ice layer. There was a series of crackling sounds of the ice layer. The eldest princess crushed the already broken ice layer on the edge of the hole and fell into the water again.

At this time, the piercing ice water made Du Wenhao feel that the blood flow in his whole body was about to stop, his teeth were rattling, and his strength was rapidly disappearing.He knew that he didn't have much strength to lift the eldest princess onto the ice layer over and over again, and immediately turned his back, put the eldest princess on his back, pulled her hands over his shoulders, and then grabbed the hole in the ice with both hands and tied it to the scabbard. The horse's reins kept shaking, and he yelled to make the horse go back!

Neither of these two horses was raised by him himself, and they didn't have such a tacit understanding with him, and they didn't understand what he meant by yelling, so they stood there and watched him without moving.

Du Wenhao was in a hurry, and pulled back the rein vigorously with both hands.

The two horses were suddenly pulled forward several steps by him, and immediately realized the danger in front of them, their necks were stretched out, their feet were firmly braced, and they backed up with snorts.

This is what Du Wenhao wanted. Seeing that it was effective, he immediately yelled and continued to pull back the rein violently alternately, tugging with the two horses.Naturally, he couldn't pull two horses, so he was pulled forward by the horses.The body crackled like an icebreaker, crushing the ice layer piece by piece.

He crossed his arms and pulled back the reins. The reins got shorter and shorter, getting closer to the horse's head, and the cracked ice was getting closer and closer to the two war horses.

The eyes of the two horses were wide open, realizing that the danger was imminent, and they subconsciously accelerated their retreat. Only part of the lake was frozen. The weight of the two princesses' bodies, pulled by the two horses, finally pulled them out of the ice hole, and then pulled them forward for a distance before stopping.

Du Wenhao got up quickly, hugged the eldest princess in his arms, and ran quickly to the lake.The lake was also covered with snow. He glanced at it and found a relatively flat big rock not far away. He ran over with the princess in his arms and carefully placed it on the rock.

He put his ear up to listen, and found that his heartbeat was still beating. He sniffed again, and he was still breathing, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.The whole process from when the eldest princess fell into the water to when Du Wenhao brought him out of the water took only a minute or so. The eldest princess was still in a semi-comatose state, with her heart beating and her breathing still alive.

The next step is how to keep her warm.She was soaked like this, and she would be frozen in no time.

Du Wenhao saw that the eldest princess had a package immediately, no matter what was wrapped inside, at least that piece of cloth could keep out the wind and cold.With a jump in his heart, he put down the eldest princess, stumbled over, took off the package with his frozen hands, opened it, and was overjoyed, there was a set of women's clothing inside!
The eldest princess brought a set of women's clothing with her, which was not easy for the attendants to take, so she tied it to her horse, which saved her life.At this time, it is important to save lives.

He hurriedly helped the eldest princess take off her wet clothes, changed her into a women's skirt, then took off his shorts, and put on his coat and pants again. Fortunately, he took off his clothes before entering the water, and he still had to wear them. Otherwise, you will have to freeze to death in the cold winter.

He turned his head and glanced at the eldest princess who was still lying motionless on the big stone slab on the shore. He was a little worried, so he went to grab the arm of the eldest princess and pushed it, and yelled twice, but the eldest princess remained motionless.

Du Wenhao leaned down to listen to her heartbeat, the pounding sound was very clear, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he raised his head, he suddenly found a cold gaze staring at him fiercely, his heart froze, and he looked intently, and saw the eldest princess looking at him coldly.

Du Wenhao said happily: "Princess, you, are you awake?"

The eldest princess suddenly coughed violently, tilted her head, spit out a few mouthfuls of clear water, supported her body and panted non-stop, looked down at the long skirt that had been loosened on her body, and a fierce light appeared in her eyes.

Du Wenhao acted cleverly, and said in a friendly voice: "Princess, you, are you alright?"

The eldest princess hummed, and said weakly: "Help, help me up!"

Du Wenhao hurriedly leaned over and reached out to support her, at this moment, the Eldest Princess raised her hand and slapped Du Wenhao in the face.Du Wenhao raised his hand and slapped her, grabbed her wrist squarely, the eldest princess let out a slap, and slapped her with the other hand, but was caught by Du Wenhao's other hand.

Du Wenhao sneered: "I knew that you would slap me in the face without asking Bai En, it's always written in novels. So I was on guard against you. You thought I was going to take advantage of you, didn't you?"

The eldest princess panted heavily, and stared at him viciously: "Isn't it? Why did I change my clothes into another one? The wet dress next to me is mine. Did you take off my dress? You...you villain, I must kill you! No, I want to report to my mother, cut you into pieces, implicate your nine clans, and kill them together, I want to kill...!"

"Kill your grandma's leg!" Du Wenhao threw off her hands, stood up and said angrily, "Get it right! You fell into the lake, and I rescued you. Your clothes are soaked, and it's going to be very fast this day." If I don’t help you change your clothes, you will freeze to death. It’s all to save you. It’s not intended to take advantage of you. It’s an expedient measure in an emergency. There’s no way! I saved your life, and you’re going to take revenge on my nine clans, if I had known, I’d have let you drown in the water!”

The eldest princess looked at the ice, and saw an ice hole next to the boulder, a long crack extending towards the shore, and two war horses stood pitifully on the ice by the lake, looking at her.The long reins dragged across the ice.

Seeing this scene, the eldest princess finally recalled what happened just now, remembering that she climbed up the boulder in the lake, fell down and smashed the ice surface, and fell into the water.I tried my best to step on the water, and my head hit the ice layer, but I couldn't find where the ice hole was. Later, I passed out and didn't know anything.After waking up, he was already on the shore. It seemed that the imperial doctor had indeed saved him.

A trace of gratitude and guilt just rose in her heart, and she immediately thought that her body had been seen by the imperial doctor, how could she see people after that?Not only was she ashamed, angry, sad and desperate, but she hugged her knees and cried.

Of course Du Wenhao knew why she was crying, and he had to untie this knot at this time, otherwise there would be endless troubles, so he said, "Princess, don't worry, I will change your clothes for you only the two of us know, and there is no one around here. Those attendants are far away on the official road. We see them as just a few blurred dots. Of course, they can't see our side, and they don't even know that you have fallen into the water. Otherwise, they would have rushed over to help. So, As long as we keep our mouths shut, no one will know about it, and your chastity will not be affected. Don't worry, I swear, I won't tell this matter, or I will die a terrible death!"

The eldest princess raised her tearful eyes to look at her, then turned her head to look at the attendants in the sky, and it was true.Looking back at Du Wenhao again, the crying became quieter.

Du Wenhao thought it worked. After all, the Northern Song Dynasty is still relatively open. Influenced by the legacy of the Tang Dynasty, the concept of chastity is not as strong as in the Southern Song Dynasty and Ming and Qing Dynasties. As long as the reasoning makes sense, it is still acceptable.

Du Wenhao changed the subject and asked, "Eldest Princess, how do you feel? You fell from such a high rock and even smashed the ice layer. Are you injured?"

The eldest princess moved her limbs with sobs, felt all right, touched her head again, and said, "It's nothing else, just my head, it hurts a bit..."

This was expected by Du Wenhao. It is normal to have a concussion after falling from such a high height, as long as there is no intracranial hemorrhage.Said: "Let me check it for you."

The eldest princess nodded.

Du Wenhao picked up her wet hair and checked her scalp. No obvious subcutaneous hematoma was found, and he was slightly relieved: "Do you feel dizzy, nauseated and want to vomit?"

"No, just a little headache."

"You rest for a while, and then get up when you're done."

The two sat, speechless for a while.

Du Wenhao felt a little embarrassed, so he had nothing to say and asked: "Princess, you said that the stone looks like a man, why can't I see it?"

The eldest princess raised her hand and pointed: "Look, does the top of the stone look like the hats your men wear?"

Only then did Du Wenhao pay attention, and tilted his head to look at it. It was indeed a bit like the square barrel-shaped hat worn by retired officials.He nodded and said, "Well, it really looks like it!"

I was a little funny in my heart, I thought that the eldest princess saw that the big stone had breasts, so I thought it was a man, but it turned out that it was because the stone on top of the head was shaped like a man's square bucket hat.She laughed and said, "Just now, princess, you said you wanted to ride on the top of this boulder, but you wanted to ride on top of us men, so the stone man got angry and threw you off."

The eldest princess also smiled: "Still riding on top of your men, am I so domineering? I just want to have fun, I want to climb up to sit and see the scenery in the lake, who knows that the rock is so slippery. It made me Falling into the ice hole almost froze to death, and almost killed our Divine Doctor Du as well!"

Du Wenhao laughed dryly: "Thinking about how dangerous it was just now, if there were no two horses to pull us out, I'm afraid that both of us would really freeze to death in the ice hole."

The eldest princess chuckled and said, "Yes, it's a pity that I'm not my mother, otherwise, even if I fell into the ice hole, I would definitely not die."

Du Wenhao wondered: "Why?"

"My mother always showers with cold water, which is the case all year round. In winter, she never takes a bath in warm water. She can walk in the snow with bare feet, and she is not afraid of the cold water at all. Even if she falls into a hole in the ice One can climb up!"

"Really? It turns out that the Empress Dowager is still a winter swimming enthusiast, hehe." Du Wenhao suddenly stopped laughing when he said this, and asked thoughtfully, "Does the Empress Dowager bathe in cold water all year round?"

"Yeah, never stop."

"When did it start?"

"Hmm... It seems to have been like this since my father passed away. It was taught by an old nun in a nunnery."

"The old nun in the nunnery? What's going on?"

"After the death of the father, the mother was very sad and cried all day long. Later, the old nun in the nunnery gave a lecture to my mother, and my mother gradually calmed down the grief in her heart. Later, my mother often went there to burn incense and worship Buddha. The host taught my mother this method of strengthening her body."

Du Wenhao understood that since this method was taught by an old nun in a nunnery, it is obviously not for physical fitness, but for pure heart and asceticism. Song Yingzong died very early, and the empress dowager was widowed at a young age. It was a long time to live, and it was impossible to remarry, and I didn't want to have any affair, so I had to use this method to eliminate the physical reaction.

Du Wenhao suddenly said: "I understand the reason why the empress dowager suffers from menstrual pain for many years, which cannot be cured."

The eldest princess has felt the pain of her mother's abdominal pain since she was a child, and she also knows that this disease has tortured her mother for more than ten years, and her mother has the heart to die because of it. , but also frankly admitted that the root cause could not be eliminated. Unexpectedly, Du Wenhao said that he had discovered the cause of the abdominal pain during menstruation.

"Cold water baths! Cold water baths all year round!" Du Wenhao sighed, and slowly said: "She was saddened by the death of the late emperor, and her mind was in mourning. When her mind was still not calm, she began to take cold water baths all year round, causing her blood to be in disorder. , blood stagnation in the cells, the hair is abdominal pain during menstruation. While the former doctor was treating the empress dowager with medicine to relieve the pain, she kept taking cold water baths.

The eldest princess nodded frequently when she heard this: "It turns out that it is like this, it is unexpected, it is really unexpected. Then how to cure it?"

"Once you know the reason, the cure is very simple. After returning home, let the empress dowager stop the cold water bath, and use Cyperus cyperus three liang, Pinellia two liang, Poria cocos and Scutellaria baicalensis one liang and five qian each, and Citrus aurantium, Yanhu and Danpi , ginseng, angelica, Atractylodes macrocephala, peach kernel, one or two each, Coptidis seven qian, Toosendan, polygala, licorice, each five qian, osmanthus three qian, Evodia [-] qian, five cents, divided into [-] pieces, add ginger juice and two clam shells, serve hot. Then Take a bath with hot water and sweat a little. During the treatment period, you should not sit or lie in the wind, avoid touching your hands and feet with cold water, and avoid eating raw and cold food. It will be enough to recuperate for a period of time. In addition, I will prescribe some... for the empress dowager to regulate her body and mind The medicine, smoothing the Qi and sleeping."

The purpose of the latter medicine is to soothe one's mind and asceticism, and to replace the cold water bath. Of course, one cannot tell the Eldest Princess about this to avoid embarrassment.

The eldest princess was very happy when she heard this, she tilted her head and said: "It seems that you still have a lot of research on dysmenorrhea, tell me more, I also have more knowledge, what is the cause of dysmenorrhea?"

Du Wenhao said: "The pathogenesis of dysmenorrhea is nothing more than deficiency and excess. From an empirical point of view, if there is no flow, pain will result. This type of dysmenorrhea is often the most severe pain before and during menstruation, and the pain decreases when the amount of menstruation is heavy. In terms of nature, Hanning is mainly cold pain, Qi stagnation is mainly distending pain. Damp resistance is mainly falling pain, and Qi stagnation and blood deficiency have been the most common pathogenesis of dysmenorrhea since ancient times."

The eldest princess seemed to understand, she tilted her head and looked at him and asked again: "What about the other reason? What about the dysmenorrhea caused by deficiency syndrome?"

"Deficiency syndrome dysmenorrhea can be referred to as disgraceful pain. This type of dysmenorrhea is often the most severe menstrual and postmenstrual pain. The sages said that this type of dysmenorrhea is 'every time the pain is empty after the blood is empty and the pain increases'. Due to the blood The sea is empty, and the qi and blood are weak, so when you feel pain, you like to warm and press, and the kidney deficiency will also be accompanied by symptoms such as soreness and weakness in the waist and knees. Over time, stagnation of qi and blood will appear, which is the so-called postmenstrual pain."

The eldest princess said: "It turns out that dysmenorrhea still has so much to pay attention to!"

"Isn't that right. Menstrual pain has a difference between true and false. If you don't distinguish between true and false, take pain medicine directly for any pain, which is a palliative, not a cure. Not only can the pain not be solved, but it will become more and more severe. It is important to distinguish the true and false of dysmenorrhea. It is very important, on the basis of distinguishing the deficiency and the excess, it is also necessary to distinguish the cold and heat as well as the lungs and organs."

The eldest princess said: "Well, I've never heard of these things. Those imperial doctors are always trembling when they see us. They leave after reading the medicine. I don’t care if it’s okay. I’ll go to see them again next time I’m in pain. They still prescribed prescriptions for decocting medicine, and I don’t ask what’s the matter, and I won’t take the initiative to tell us. Hello, although I don’t understand what I said, but I also have a general impression."

"Yes!" Du Wenhao said, "The doctor should explain the pathology and pharmacology to the patient, so that the other party can know the reason. Of course, if time permits."

"Yeah, our time doesn't allow it now, hee hee, let's talk about this first, and we'll talk later. I'm a little cold, let's go."

"Are you able to walk?" Du Wenhao looked up and down.

"It should be fine." The eldest princess moved her hands and feet, "Go and bring the horse."

Du Wenhao picked up the wet clothes on the ground, wrapped them in a cloth towel, tied them again to the eldest princess's horse, tied the severed reins of the two horses on the horse's head, and led the horses to the eldest princess.The eldest princess lifted up her long skirt and flew onto the horse.Du Wenhao also got on his horse.

The eldest princess turned the horse's head, and even galloped the horse towards the boulder again.Du Wenhao gave a big jump and hurried to catch up.

Fortunately, the eldest princess reined in her horse a few feet away from the huge boulder. Looking at the ice hole and the cracked ice crack, she couldn't help feeling scared for a while, turned around, glanced at Du Wenhao, and said in a low voice: " Thank you for saving my life."

"No thanks, it is my obligatory duty to take good care of the eldest princess."

The eldest princess looked at him, for some reason, a pink flush appeared on her tender face, she turned the horse's head, raised her whip, and rode the horse back to the lake, and galloped towards the official road.

When the two came to the official road, the attendants were already waiting there. Seeing that the eldest princess had changed into a female dress, they were a little surprised, but they didn't dare to ask more questions. They didn't know that the eldest princess had just passed the ghost gate. Circle back.

Du Wenhao was also very fortunate, he couldn't help saving the eldest princess without any danger, and he also found out the real cause of the empress dowager's abdominal pain during menstruation, and he felt very comfortable.The two beat their horses and swung their whips and galloped forward.

After running for a while, the eldest princess turned her head with a smile and asked Du Wenhao, "I have a question, you can choose not to answer it, but I hope you can answer it. But if you really don't want to say it, I won't force it."

"Ask. I will answer if I can."

"Of course you can answer—are you married?"

"Yes." Du Wenhao replied briefly.

"Is she pretty?"

"Who?"

"Your wife!"

"pretty."

Obviously the eldest princess was not satisfied with Du Wenhao's answer, and asked, "Is it prettier than me?"

This question is not easy to answer. Pang Yuqin is prettier than the eldest princess, Xue Feier is more lively and cute than the eldest princess, Lianer is more spoiled than the eldest princess, and the eldest princess is better than the three of them. The loneliness after the disaster.It is a poignant beauty that evokes the poignant beauty that men want to protect.
