Chapter 124 The Furious Governor of Liangzhou

Chapter 124 The Furious Governor of Liangzhou
"Hua Changshi, how is it?"

Huang Zhong clenched his hands so tightly that his knuckles were clearly visible. Huang Xu's health has always been a concern for him. If even Hua Tuo could not cure him, then who in the world could save his son?
He was extremely alert, looked at Hua Tuo, held his breath, and his heart was in his throat.

Everyone in the room was worried about Huang Zhong.

Hua Tuo withdrew his hand.

Under everyone's gaze, Hua Tuo suddenly smiled, "Brother Han Sheng"

This smile directly touched Huang Zhong's sensitive nerves. Huang Zhong didn't care what Hua Tuo said and immediately stated, "Hua Changshi, as long as it doesn't harm the lord and can save my son, I will get whatever you need! Even if it means climbing a mountain of swords and crossing a dragon's den, I will never say no!"

"Han Sheng, calm down. Worrying makes you confused."

Liu Bei patted Huang Zhong on the shoulder.

After hearing Liu Bei's voice, Huang Zhong realized that he had lost his composure and he apologized to Hua Tuo.

"Master Hua, I was rude, please don't blame me, just continue."

Hua Tuobiao said: "I understand your feelings, Brother Hansheng. Please rest assured, your son's condition is not serious. He just needs to take medicine on time and exercise diligently, and he will recover naturally in time."

"!"

Huang Zhong's eyes widened immediately, with unbelievable joy and shock in his eyes, his iron-like face was full of emotion, and even his body trembled slightly uncontrollably, his tone was a little choked, "Thank you. Thank you, Hua Changshi"

"Brother Han Sheng, there is no need to thank me. If you really want to thank me, you should thank Lord Fu Yide."

"?"

Hua Tuo's words made Liu Bei feel strange. What did he have to do with this?

Wait, Yide.
Liu Bei had some enlightenment, and when he came back this time, Zhang Fei brought with him another medical book, titled
"Emergency prescription for elbow hindquarters." Hua Tuo explained with a smile: "Thanks to Yi De's book and the master's medical theory of 'prevention'."

Hearing this, Huang Zhong was filled with amazement. It turned out that his lord and Yide both knew medical skills. Hadn't he been wasting time seeking medical treatment all these years?

So Huang Zhong hurriedly thanked Liu Bei.

Fortunately, Liu Bei was used to it. He called his personal guards and ordered them to find Fa Zheng. He then apologized to Yan Yu and said, "Mr. Yan, I have sent someone to bring Xiao directly here. Please move to the next room with Xu. Han Sheng and I have something important to discuss."

"Okay." Yan Yu didn't ask any more questions and left with Liu Bei's personal guards and Huang Xu.

Huang Zhong and Hua Tuo were the only ones left in the room. Liu Bei no longer had any concerns. He asked, "Mr. Hua, what disease is Huang Xu suffering from?"

After a little thought, Hua Tuo replied, "My Lord, according to what Zhang Zhongjing said, coughing and shortness of breath, with a sound like a water chicken in the throat, is also called 'wheezing' according to the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine. In my opinion, it is caused by the invasion of wind evil into the lungs, which means there is something wrong with the lungs."

Simply put, the disease Hua Tuo was talking about was actually asthma. Even one thousand and eighty years later, asthma could not be completely cured, let alone the Han people today.

Liu Bei could tell from Hua Tuo's expression that he had used "psychological therapy" again. He guessed that it couldn't be as simple as Hua Tuo said, so he sent everyone away. He didn't expect it to be such a difficult disease.

While Huang Zhong was still in a daze, Liu Bei asked, "Master Hua, is there any way to treat him?"

"Have."

This sound made Huang Zhong's dull eyes light up, and he asked hurriedly: "What's the solution?"

"The "Emergency Prescriptions for the Elbow" mentions a method for treating malaria. Take a handful of Artemisia annua, soak it in two liters of water, and squeeze out the juice. The garlic that Marquis Bowang brought back from the Western Regions has the effect of relieving cough. If you follow this idea and combine it with my decoction, even if you can't cure the lesion, you can stabilize the condition."

Huang Zhong felt a little disappointed when he heard that there was no cure, but being able to stabilize his condition was already a rare achievement, which was far beyond his expectations when he came here.

Liu Bei naturally saw Huang Zhong's reaction, which made heroes sigh and warriors sigh. This was not what he was happy to see. He thought: We must vigorously support medicine. One person's plan is short, and everyone's plan is long. If doctors from all over the world gather together, as long as they want to learn to be medical officers, we will invest and vigorously train them. These prerequisites require Liangzhou to be stable, and there are really many good things in the Western Regions.
Liu Bei put aside his thoughts for the moment and focused on the present. Hua Tuo went out to prepare medicine for Huang Xu, leaving Huang Zhong alone in the room waiting for arrangements.

Without thinking too much, Liu Bei had already made a decision.

"My lord, I am here," Huang Zhong clasped his fists.

"I appoint you as the military commander, temporarily replacing Yide to take charge of the city's security and fight against the robbers around." Liu Bei said with a smile, "Han Sheng, don't despise your position. There are too few soldiers in the city. Our lives and fortunes depend on Han Sheng."

"Lord Zhong, I am so happy, how can I be disgusted?"

Huang Zhong was no longer an old general. He was just an old soldier before he came to Jincheng. Even though he had made military achievements, he was not appreciated by anyone. He was lucky that his due reward was not embezzled. Although the position of Sima was not a high position, it depended on who was the Sima. He was not stupid. Liu Bei's words did not mean that he was to be the Sima, but that he was to entrust the military of a city to him. As for why he did this.
Huang Zhong already had the answer in his mind.

He is just a warrior, new here, how can he convince others if he doesn't show off his real skills? !

Thinking of this, Huang Zhong was filled with infinite emotion and gratitude. He bowed to Liu Bei and said in a loud voice: "Zhong, I will never let you down!"

Hanyang County, Ji County.

The provincial government mansion located in Ji County is different from other buildings in the city. It is majestic and tall.

But what was strange was that the vermilion main gate was tightly closed, and even the officials from the provincial government could only accept questioning by the gatekeepers and go through a small door on the side.

Behind the gate are pavilions and towers with white walls and green tiles, winding around the government office. The flowers in the altar have not yet withered, and the rockery and flowing water make it look even more luxurious.

The most luxurious pavilion in the mansion is that of Zuo Chang, the governor of Liangzhou. Even if you stop outside the door and stretch your head to look inside, you will be dazzled by the luxury inside.

Inside the pavilion, clear string sounds float from the fingertips of the musicians, incense flows out of the stove like mist, and graceful dancers are draped in tulle with green jade pendants hanging on their slender waists. They come with lowered brows and pleasing steps. As the music plays, the dancers dance gracefully, and their skin, faintly visible under the tulle, entangled with the flowing mist, outlines a strange beauty.

However, Zuo Chang, who was sitting in a high position, did not show any joy at all. As he listened to the report from Beijia, his face turned extremely pale and his teeth were chattering.

"You bastard!"

Zuo Chang shouted loudly, picked up the wine cup filled with hot wine, and threw it hard in front of him.

"Kang Dang"

The wine cup fell heavily to the ground, and the hot wine splashed all over the dancer, causing her to scream.

The sudden change terrified not only the dancers but even the musicians, but they didn't dare to stop until Zuo Chang called for it. Even though sweat was soaking their backs, they had to keep playing.

Accidents will happen.

The more depressing the environment, the easier it is to make mistakes. An old musician accidentally broke a string. He knelt on the ground in fear and kowtowed repeatedly, begging Zuo Chang for forgiveness.

But Zuo Chang didn't even look at the dancers and musicians. He just shouted, "Do you have eyes on your heads? How can you be wrong? Drag them down and chop them off!"

Zuo Chang felt extremely angry, and he began to smash the cups crazily to vent his anger, shouting:

"Damn it! Who the hell do you think you are, Zhang Yide? You told me to plant a flag and I did?! You bastard! You bastard!"

The deputy driver asked hurriedly, "Sir, what should we do now?"

Zuo Chang said fiercely, "Don't listen to Zhang Yide's nonsense! Pass the order down, no one can plant the flag without permission!"

However, all of this was seen by a pair of eyes present. He was full of contempt in his heart, but he appeared calm on the outside and just silently took note of Zuo Chang's words and actions.
