Chapter 170 Guati San
Constable Dong said, "My benefactor, this is the case. Sun Ren, a dilapidated man in Xicheng, has a son who suffers from epilepsy and runs around and beats people when he gets sick. Sun Ren loves his son very much, and somehow makes things happen. He asks the old man Huang, Huang Zuwei, to prescribe the prescription. After Huang Zuwei prescribed the prescription, the child took it and sweated coldly. He soon couldn't do it. He found a cart to send the Huirentang Pharmacy to a doctor for treatment. As soon as he arrived at the door of the pharmacy, he swallowed. Sun Ren cried and said that it was a problem with the doctor of the prescription of Lao Ling and Huang Zuwei, and killed his son with the wrong medicine. In anger, the two sued the yamen. The three of them argued whether the prescription was cured to death. Then the big man sent a young man to ask the gentleman to come to the hall to confirm."
When Du Wenhao heard this, he found out that it was a medical dispute and asked him to do an appraisal. He did not refuse and asked someone to take out his little donkey, rode and followed several constables and old man Huang to the yamen.
He is an appraiser and does not need to kneel down according to the rules. Moreover, the master of the prosecutor is his father-in-law, so he naturally has other concerns. Pang Jinghui asked someone to prepare a chair in the hall. After Du Wenhao came up, he just bowed his hand and sat on the chair in the chair.
The plaintiff Sun Ren knelt in the lobby, and the body of his young son was placed on the lobby platform, covered with a piece of white cloth. There were many people in the lobby watching the fun and pointing fingers.
The old doctor kneeled in the lobby and lowered his head.
Pang Jinghui slapped the auspicious wood: "Plaintiff, who do you sue and what you are doing, come to be honest."
Sun Ren kowtowed and cried, "Master, the young man sued Huang Zuwei for the quack doctor who accidentally injured his life. My son suffered from epilepsy. I accidentally found out that there was an old doctor Ling at the entrance of Daxiangguo Temple. There was a secret recipe for treating epilepsy. The package was good, but the money was invalid. The prescription was effective when it was poured, but the price was a bit expensive, and I only sold medicine but not the prescription. I saved up enough money, bought it from the doctor Ling's medicine, and took this medicine for my son. My son quickly vomited and even vomited jaundice water. At first I was very worried, but after vomiting, my son's illness was really cured. Unfortunately, this medicine was only three months old, and after three months, I raised money to buy medicine. My son vomited again after taking it, and healed for another three months. After that, he went to buy it again."
Pang Jinghui snorted and said to the old doctor, "You are really good at making money, and you have cut off your roots once. You have different ways of spending money to buy your medicine."
The old doctor Ling didn't dare to contradict the master, so he lowered his head and didn't say anything.
Sun Ren said: "Yes, his medicine is too expensive. After buying it for so many times, I have been spending all my only property and borrowed a lot of debts. It's three months since I put it together and saved enough money to buy medicine. The effect of the medicine is too short, only three months, especially after taking the medicine, I vomited all the medicine. If I can't vomit, it would be fine. After all, this medicine is too expensive and I can't afford it. So I went to Huang Zuwei for help and asked him to think of a way to see if he could prescribe some medicine.
, tell my son not to vomit, so that the effect of the medicine may be extended for a while. Huang Zuwei didn't know what medicine Lao Ling used for, so he prescribed a dose of medicine for my son, saying it was an anti-emetic. My son first took the medicine for Lao Ling to treat epilepsy, and then took the anti-emetic medicine prescribed by Huang Zuwei, but he stopped vomiting, but he was sweating all over and his eyes turned pale. I quickly sent it to the pharmacy shop and died before I reached the door. My son was killed like this, beg the master to make the decision for me. Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo w
Pang Jinghui turned around and asked Huang Zuwei: "Defendant, is what the plaintiff said just now true?"
Huang Zuwei is a juren in the title of the provincial examination. He has fame and reputation, and does not need to kneel down. He whispered aloud with his hands behind his back: "What the plaintiff said is basically true, but the fault of this matter is not me. He came to me and said that the medicine prescribed by Lao Ling doctor was too expensive and lasted only three months. I asked me to think of ways to prevent my child from vomiting after taking the medicine, so that the effect of the medicine can last longer. I prescribed Pinellia, Dingxiang and other anti-emetic medicines, and used Evergrande vinegar to apply it externally to the Yongquan point to prevent vomiting. The vomiting stopped, but the child was also dead. I was also sad that the child died of illness, but my prescription was not wrong. Please give me a clarity."
"Doctor Ling, what about you? What's there to say?"
The old doctor shook his head: "The medicine I prescribed is fine."
Pang Jinghui said to Du Wenhao: "Doctor Du, come and identify who is wrong?"
Du Wenhao said: "Now it seems that there are several possible causes of death for this child, either due to epilepsy, or due to Lao Ling's medicine, or due to Huang Zuwei's anti-emetic medicine, or due to accidents and other reasons. In this case, it is necessary to distinguish right from wrong, the child must be dissected, and after the cause of death is found, it will be clear. It is just that I don't know whether the family of the deceased is willing to dissect the child."
After Pang Jinghui asked, Sun Ren thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, as long as I can find out the cause of my son's death, let's dissect it."
Pang Jinghui ordered a temporary retreat and asked Zaoli to transport the child's body on the platform to the morgue. Under the supervision of the plaintiff and the defendant, Du Wenhao dissected the child's body.
No obvious external and internal injuries were found after the dissection, nor were there any disease lesions that could be cured immediately. It seems that the cause of death was mainly concentrated on poisoning. Due to the lack of poison testing methods, Du Wenhao could only judge based on the symptoms before the child died of illness and examined the contents of the deceased's stomach. After that, Du Wenhao reported that the cause of death had been found. Pang Jinghui decided to resume the trial of the case.
After resuming the school, Du Wenhao asked the old doctor: "What medicine did you prescribe for this child?"
The old doctor Ling whispered: "This is my secret recipe passed down from ancestors and cannot be told to outsiders."
Du Wenhao walked over and reached out and said, "Can you take a pack to show me?"
Doctor Ling knew that the government was investigating the case now. A child died after taking his medicine. He was afraid of responsibility, so he did not dare to refuse. He took out a small bag of medicine from his arms and handed it to Du Wenhao.
Du Wenhao took the bag of medicine powder, looked carefully, dipped it a little with his finger and placed it on his tongue for a while, and then quickly vomited it out: "I know what your medicine is, Guati San, right?"
The old doctor was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Du Wenhao said: "I couldn't think you would use Guati Powder to induce vomiting to treat epilepsy. This method of inducing vomiting can eliminate some toxins to relieve the symptoms of epilepsy. However, this can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Therefore, epilepsy will occur again in three months. You have to buy medicine to induce vomiting, which will relieve the symptoms. After this cycle, you have made a lot of money from it, but your child's illness has not improved fundamentally. Don't you blush with this money?"
Lao Ling stroked his beard: "I'm going to make money by selling medicine, and I'm willing to beat the other one, but I can't say I'm blushing or not."
"You are so at ease! It is because your medicine that treats symptoms but not root causes are too expensive. Sun Ren and the others have no choice but to find a way to extend the effect of the medicine. By using this method of antiemesis, the child was poisoned and died!"
"That's their business. I said when I was selling the medicine. After taking the medicine, the child will vomit. Don't worry, let him vomit. It's better after he vomits. Ask the old man, did I say that?"
Sun Ren nodded and said, "That's what he said."
"So that's right, I have no responsibility at all."
"Whether you have the responsibility or not, the admonitioner has the final say." Du Wenhao sneered and bowed: "Sir, Sun Ren's child died of Guati San poisoning. Guati San is an acute vomiting drug. However, Guati San is poisonous and vomiting is necessary after taking it to avoid poisoning. They use antiemetic drugs to prevent the child from vomiting, which makes the poison of Guati San unable to be eliminated, and the child eventually died of poisoning."
Pang Jinghui asked: "Then is this old doctor who uses Guati San to treat epilepsy?"
Du Wenhao said: "When there is evil poison in the body, doctors choose to detoxify according to the condition. If the disease is on the surface of the body, sweat more often. If the disease is in the body, diarrhea is used to detoxify. If the disease is in the body, diarrhea is used to detoxify through urination and detoxification. If the disease is in the upper calamity, vomiting is used to detoxify. Epilepsy is caused by brain trauma or genetic factors, causing imbalance of internal organs, blocking of phlegm and turbidity, confusion of qi, and internal movement of wind and yang. It is not a real evil. According to reason, it should not be treated with vomiting alone."
The old doctor Ling sneered: "Who said Guati Powder cannot treat epilepsy? This is my secret recipe passed down from ancestors. I don't know how many people have been cured by this method. You can inquire. Doctor Du, don't think that you know Hua Tuo's magical skills in cesarean sectioning and healing injuries. You know everything and know everything! There is a shortness of the ruler and a strength! Young people!"
Du Wenhao smiled faintly: "You are right. Guati San is indeed used to treat epilepsy. The so-called phlegm and saliva are congested and confusing pores are considered epilepsy. Phlegm and epilepsy are often prone to phlegm. When it is prone to phlegm, phlegm is blocked in the throat, and the qi is short and fainted and spit. Therefore, when treating epilepsy in young children, it is often used to treat epilepsy to lower qi and drop phlegm. If the phlegm and fluid are in an upward trend, Guati San is also used to guide vomiting and eliminate phlegm. Instead of using Guati San alone, it cannot be treated with only vomiting of phlegm and saliva, so epilepsy cannot be cured. Moreover, Guati San is poisonous and should not be used for a long time, especially for young children. Therefore, although you cannot say that you use the medicine wrongly, it is at least a mediocre prescription."
The old doctor Ling suddenly became hoarse and looked at Du Wenhao. The so-called expert could tell if there was any. The old doctor Ling knew that he could not play tricks in front of this young man. His old face turned red and he lowered his head without saying a word.
Pang Jinghui said: "So, the medical prescription for children who have a disease is inappropriate, and Huang Zuwei did not distinguish between pharmacology and used antiemetic drugs to cause poisoning, which together leads to death of the child?"
Du Wenhao nodded and said, "Yes. But the main responsibility lies with Huang Zuwei."
Pang Jinghui looked at Huang Zuwei: "What do you have to say now?"
Huang Zuwei collapsed to the ground with a gurgle, and his forehead was sweating profusely: "I felt ashamed of being too late, but I didn't learn skills well, and I used medicine randomly, which would harm people's lives. I was aware of my crimes in my later years, and I would like to punish me."
