Chapter 60 -60: Carelessly Writing a Wrong Character

“What did you say—?!”

Fu Yun, who was standing by the bed awaiting results, staggered almost losing her balance upon hearing that Old Mr. Fu might not be saved.

Upon hearing such results, everyone else in the room, except for Chen Ruyun, also tightened their expressions.

Li Muchen’s gaze became sharp, almost subconsciously, he gripped the slightly cold hand of the girl next to him.

It was both a comfort and a display of his protective stance towards Lu Sheng in front of everyone, to prevent the Fu Family from suddenly rushing over to harm her.

Fu Yun clenched her teeth and asked Gao He: “So, is it true that this Lu Sheng doesn’t understand medical skills at all, and prescribed a random prescription for Grandpa, which resulted in his current condition?”

After speaking, Fu Yun fiercely turned her head to look at Lu Sheng, her eyes seemed as if they could devour her, shaking with anger.

“That’s not the case,” Gao He immediately shook his head, “This young lady definitely knows medical skills, her prescription was not written haphazardly.”

Beside them, Fu Siya was stunned, somewhat confused: “If her prescription wasn’t written haphazardly, how did it cause my grandfather to end up like this?”

Gao He sighed: “The prescription wasn’t written haphazardly, but if this young lady didn’t intend to harm Old Mr. Fu, then she made a fatal clerical error—she accidentally wrote hemp root instead of hemp leaf.”

Upon hearing Gao He’s words, Lu Sheng, who had been silent all along, suddenly raised her eyes: “…Impossible!”

Before anyone else could react, she had already strode over in a few steps and snatched the prescription from Gao He.

Upon looking down, her expression instantly turned grim.

The handwriting on the prescription was flamboyant and unrestrained, consistent with her usual writing style. However, the last herb listed indeed read [hemp root 10g].

But Lu Sheng noticed at a glance that this prescription had definitely been tampered with.

Someone had copied her original prescription and then deliberately changed one character, turning hemp leaf into hemp root.

Lu Sheng’s eyes instantly became as cold as ice, her right hand tightly clutching the prescription.

—A single word change turned a healing prescription into a deadly one.

This was someone trying to use her hand, her name, to take Old Mr. Fu’s life!

“How dare you, a wild girl, come over to snatch the prescription?” At this moment, Chen Ruyun stood up abruptly, warning, “You wouldn’t be trying to destroy the evidence, would you?!”

Fu Yun currently had no mind to deal with Lu Sheng and immediately asked Gao He: “Doctor Gao, we don’t understand Chinese medicine, what are these hemp leaf and hemp root?”

Gao He explained: “Hemp is a very special plant, growing in the extremely cold high mountains. Both its leaves and roots are Chinese medicinal materials, but their properties and effects are completely opposite.”

“The servant mentioned that Old Mr. Fu had symptoms of blood seeping from the nose, shortness of breath with phlegm stuck in the throat, constipation along with dark yellow urine, and even chest pain and itching, all are symptoms of long-term liver failure to distribute and liver depression transforming into fire.”

“To treat it, one should use medicine that soothes the liver, regulates qi, clears heat, and detoxifies. Hemp leaf is mild in nature and has very good effects in clearing heat and detoxifying, smoothing meridians, regulating blood flow and respiration, and constricting to stop bleeding.”

“So, if this young lady originally intended to prescribe hemp leaf, then there is nothing wrong with the prescription; it could even be said to be of very high level.”

“Indeed, after five doses, Old Mr. Fu’s body would have been almost completely cured.”

Hearing what Gao He said, Fu Yun furrowed her brows tightly and hurriedly continued to ask: “What about the hemp root then?”

“Hemp root…” Gao He took a deep breath, his expression becoming serious, “The properties of hemp root and hemp leaf are entirely different; hemp root is dry and intensely hot, rapidly impacting when taken.”

“Old Mr. Fu already had symptoms of heat disease, and the more he takes hemp root, the more he would suffer from mouth ulcers, swollen gums, constipation, and unstoppable bleeding, getting worse as time goes on.”

“Yes,” the servant immediately stood up and added, “these are exactly Old Mr. Fu’s symptoms these past few days, but Old Mr. Fu said that medicines have side effects, which is very normal, so he didn’t take it to heart.”

But Gao He wasn’t finished yet: “What’s more important is…”

Fu Yun immediately pressed: “What’s more important?”

Gao He gently shook his head, sighing, “What’s more important is, hemp root itself is highly poisonous, and must be strictly controlled in dosage when used in medicine.”

“Hemp root should never exceed 1g per dose when brewed into a decoction, or else it poses a lethal risk. On this prescription, 10 grams of hemp root are divided for use in five brews, each time using 2g.”

“Moreover, the properties of hemp root and the other medicinal materials in this prescription are antagonistic, brewing them together would further induce a toxic reaction.”

“So, Old Mr. Fu’s current condition, although outwardly it seems he’s just coughing blood and unconscious, in reality, he is poisoned.”

“The poison from the hemp root affects his nerves and heart, while the toxins produced from the hemp root reacting with other medicinal materials harm his liver, lungs, spleen, and stomach, this kind of damage is irreversible.”

“If we had discovered this a few days earlier, we could have induced vomiting and washed the stomach for Old Mr. Fu, then I could help him with acupuncture to release blood and prescribe medicine to detoxify. But now, after a full five days…”

“Difficulty in breathing, blood pressure drop, body temperature not rising, heart rhythm disorders, and afterwards direct circulatory failure harming his heart, in the end…”

Gao He looked at Fu Yun and shook his head: “Madam, please forgive my inadequate skills, I’m afraid with the current medical methods and my ability, it’s already impossible to save Old Mr. Fu.”

Fu Yun trembled as she spoke, her face in disbelief: “Are you saying my father… is undoubtedly going to die, beyond rescue?”

The room fell into silence for a second.

The atmosphere, which had just eased slightly, suddenly became tense again, with Lu Sheng instantly becoming the target of everyone.

Lu Youye clenched his fists tightly, just as he took a deep breath preparing to go over and pull Lu Sheng away directly, Lu Sheng suddenly raised her eyes and said—

“There is a cure.”

At her words, everyone in the room turned to look at her.

Chen Ruyun was elated over the imminent acquisition of two to three hundred million.

The next second upon hearing Lu Sheng’s words, she was stunned, then immediately shouted angrily: “What nonsense are you talking, girl?”

Chen Ruyun stared with icy eyes at Lu Sheng.

“You carelessly wrote the prescription incorrectly, harming Old Mr. Fu like this, and we haven’t even started to hold you accountable.”

“Now even Miracle Doctor Gao says Old Mr. Fu can’t be saved, yet you shamelessly claim there is a cure.”

“What, are you more skilled than Miracle Doctor Gao? What will you save him with, with this mouth of yours?!”

Lu Sheng also coldly looked at her: “I did not carelessly write the wrong character, because this isn’t the prescription I wrote.”

“Someone copied my handwriting, rewrote it, and deliberately changed hemp leaf to hemp root.”

Ignoring the astonishment in everyone’s eyes, Lu Sheng looked at Gao He and said, “And when I say there is a cure, there is a cure.”

“Hasn’t Doctor Gao heard of the Returning Pill? With the Returning Pill, Grandpa Fu’s life can be saved.”
