Chapter 14: Blood Transfusion (2)
“I am also curious about how to prolong life by taking blood. Since it is good for Qin Qing’s health, you may as well do it. It is worth it to exchange the lives of the traitors for the improvement of the body of the general of the Tang Dynasty. What does it matter if I have this bad reputation?”
Li Er walked into the room with his arms crossed. The people in the room suddenly became shorter, and the complicated etiquette became simple with a wave of Li Er’s hand. Qin Qiong was about to scold the housekeeper, but Li Er stopped him.
“I just came to see how Qin Qing’s health is today, and I went straight to the back hall. A little bit of etiquette, just skip it!” He said lightly, as if he was giving you face by going directly to your back hall. Yun Ye secretly thought to himself.
“Although I am ill, I dare not trouble Your Majesty to visit me in person. I am truly humbled.” Qin Qiong’s words were without any backbone.
“Your Excellency has risked your life for our Great Tang, and you have been injured many times. However, your body does not tolerate alcohol, otherwise I would follow Sun Quan’s example and drink a cup of wine to reward your achievements.” When he said this, Qin Qiong’s eyes turned red, and the four other state ministers beside him were also sighing.
This is buying people’s hearts? Yun Ye felt that this old brother’s emotional intelligence was too low. A few words of kindness cost nothing, and they were all grateful and tearful. Look at the old idiot Yuchi, so excited that he can’t wait to hold a bomb and blow up the enemy’s bunker.
In Yun Ye’s opinion, no matter what, he should get a few tens of thousands of strings of cash, a few beautiful women, and a few sets of luxurious houses, all within the same ring. Only then would he be moved. Everything else is nonsense.
“I have brought ten death row inmates, all of them evil and full of guilt. Yun Qing, do you think that’s enough?” He pointed out with his hand. Everyone saw ten death row inmates kneeling outside the door with black hoods and shivering in the cold wind.
Yun Ye’s heart was as cold as the cold wind. These were human beings, Han people, and he could not do the same as the beastly behavior of Matsui Shigen. Taking a little blood would not kill anyone, Yun Ye knew, but these people in the room did not know, the prisoners did not know, and Li Er did not know. They thought that taking blood was the same as taking life, taking the life of others into their own bodies. It was borrowing life! This is not borrowing you ten taels of silver, borrowed today, and returned tomorrow. Is the borrower still alive and waiting for you to return it? Li Er’s face was full of mystery, Li Jing looked at Yun Ye without blinking, Li Ji smiled, Cheng Yaojin’s face was full of uncertainty, and Yuchi Gong’s face was full of expectation. They were all waiting for Yun Ye to speak.
“Yun Qing, why haven’t you started the operation? Is it that the blood of these ten people is not suitable for use? There is still some in the prison. How about I have them sent it over?”
Yun Ye knew that Li Er would not let him go. He would not believe that there was such a thing without seeing it with his own eyes.
“Your Majesty, as long as we do a blood test, we will know that the body of the Grand Duke of Yiguo really needs a blood transfusion. His blood type is A, which is a very common blood type and it is easy to find a match. 80% of these ten people may have blood type A.”
“Oh? Then why don’t you hurry up and test it?”
“There is no need to test it. I don’t know if the blood types of those ten people are right or wrong, but one of them has the right blood type.” Yun Ye said with his head bowed.
“Who is it?” Li Er’s tone was somewhat oppressive.
“To avoid worrying everyone, I will first explain what a blood transfusion is. It is not as miraculous as the legends say, it is just a simple treatment method. Last time Zhuang San stopped bleeding too much and went into shock, but his injuries were not fatal. As long as he received a timely blood transfusion, he would recover. This is nothing unusual. The Duke of Yiguo has a reduced hematopoietic function and his blood is insufficient and of poor quality, which is not enough to support the whole body, causing him to be weak and sickly. A blood transfusion will change the constitution in the fastest time and will be an effective treatment method. There are five types of blood, A, B, AB, O and B+. We are all of type A, B or O. Type B+ is extremely rare, with only a few cases in a million people. Since parents have different blood types, their offspring will be different. Sometimes it is not surprising that the blood types of father and son are different. It is ridiculous that people recognize their relatives by blood transfusion. The amount of blood in a person’s body is less than 10% of their body weight. Giving a little blood to someone else will not kill them, but will instead stimulate the body to produce more blood. The last Qiang person was scared to death, not from the blood extraction.
“Is that true?” Li Er asked with a doubtful look on his face. The people in the room also looked at each other, half believing and half doubting.
“To prove that what I said is true, I will give the Duke a blood transfusion. It so happens that my blood type is the same as the Duke’s, type A.”
“No!” Old Cheng refused outright.
“No!” Qin Qiong also disagreed.
Cheng Chumo stopped Yun Ye from giving blood, saying, “If you’re going to give blood, give it to them.” He pointed to the hooded prisoners outside.
He hugged Cheng Chumo gratefully, pushed him away, and went to the emperor to bow: “Your Majesty, I have explained the principle of blood transfusion. Let’s start now. Please give your permission.”
Li Er was a little confused. He looked at Yun Ye and then at the death row prisoners outside the room. “Why are you unwilling to use the blood of the death row prisoners and willing to use your own blood instead?”
“Since I was a child, my teacher taught me to write the character ‘person’ first. One stroke is for righteousness, one stroke is for loyalty, and between the two strokes, one stands upright. If I use the blood of a condemned prisoner today, it will make me lose the foundation of being a human being, and I will not take it. Besides, the court has strict laws and regulations, and condemned prisoners have their own reasons for death, even if they are sentenced to death by the law. I cannot break the law for personal gain.”
“Are you accusing me of breaking the law?” Li Er’s face turned red. He was embarrassed to be accused by a 14 or 15 year old.
How do you explain your behavior in Longyou? Are the Qiang not human?
“My kindness only benefits the people of the Great Tang. As for the enemies, I really don’t regard them as human beings. My teacher and friends slaughtered 300 horse thieves overnight and returned to drink a toast. I was holding a cup of wine and didn’t realize anything was wrong.”
The figure of the teacher became tall again. Is he a talented student? Has he never seen a few events that make his blood boil?
“Good, good, I approve. Today, I’ll see how you can give your blood to the Winged General. If you succeed, I will allow you to enter the palace and study with the princes.”
Oh my god, Yun Ye screamed in his heart. I never planned to study in your family. Your family is full of perverts. If I go in, will it be good? Is this a reward or a punishment? You are digging your own grave! Everyone in the room was envious, especially Li Ji, who was a little jealous.
Just as Qin Qiong was lying down, he used alcohol to disinfect him, and was about to disinfect his own arm when he heard a prisoner’s head knocking outside. Li Er ordered the prisoner to remove the hemp seeds in his mouth and let him speak.
“The prisoner is willing to give blood. The prisoner is willing to give blood. Please give the prisoner a chance to make amends.” After saying this, he began to bow again, and his head was broken.
“Yun Ye, he is willing to do it. I’m sure it’s not against your beliefs. You can test his blood. If it works, use it. If it works, I will spare his life.”
Of course, Yun Ye didn’t want to use his own blood. It would hurt so much. Besides, why not give this guy a chance to live? Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda! After going to the temple twice, Yun Ye felt that he had become much kinder. Hopefully, this guy has the same blood type as Lao Qin.
After the blood test, the brother was very lucky. He was type O, the same as Lao Qin. I patted him on the shoulder and said, “You’re lucky! You only need to give a pound of blood to save your life. This is a good business.”
This one is also a fool, daring to smile and say to Yun Ye, “Your Excellency, I don’t know, I killed someone on the street, and I was also cut by someone else. I didn’t see him die even though I bled all over the place. Thank you, Your Excellency. In the future, if you need blood, just come to me. As long as you don’t die, you can draw it as much as you want.” This motherfucker is still doing business, making Li Er unable to laugh or cry, and the tense atmosphere in the room also relaxed.
It went very smoothly. The blood of the fool was of good quality and entered Lao Qin’s blood vessels smoothly. The two lay the same height, but their blood pressures were obviously different. The fool’s blood pressure was normal and naturally flowed into Lao Qin’s low blood pressure body. After a quarter of an hour, Yun Ye finished the blood transfusion. Lao Qin’s breathing was relaxed, and there was no noise in his lungs. He actually fell asleep. The imperial doctor brought by Li Er next to him touched Lao Qin’s pulse and nodded frequently, and from time to time he looked back at Yun Ye, who was very surprised at the effect of the blood transfusion.
“How is Qin Qing’s health?” Li Er asked the imperial doctor in a hurry.
“Your Majesty, the Duke of Yiguo has a strong pulse and a long breath. He has already fallen asleep.”
Old Qin was so exhausted from the pain that he could barely breathe, and he fell asleep very lightly every night. The time he could really sleep was very short, and when he relaxed, he no longer felt chest tightness, and the tiredness that had been with him for many days naturally came like a flood, and he snored loudly.
Li Er ordered Mrs. Qin to take good care of him, and led everyone to the front yard. The fool was also brought along. After losing more than a catty of blood, the fool was as good as new, except for his pale complexion. He was still pounding his body with his arms raised in a powerful pose.
“It seems that blood transfusion does not kill people, and it can also save people. The world is truly amazing. I was wrong to think that I was the only one who knew everything. After settling down at home, come to the palace to study!” After saying that, he left for the palace.
Yun Ye didn’t even have a chance to refuse, and the head of the guards gave him a waist badge as a certificate to enter the palace. He took Yun Ye’s hand and said, “In the future, the two of us can exchange our experiences of bloodletting.”
Old Cheng was satisfied, Li Jing was satisfied, Li Ji was very surprised, and Yuchi Lao was very dissatisfied. He said that he only saw the continuation of life and did not see the blood being taken. He said that he wanted to see it again. He liked to see others bleed. This pervert.
Qin Huaiyu’s eyes were full of stars, bright and creepy. He kept calling Yun brother in front of and behind people, even though he was obviously older than Yun Ye. He was in a complacent mood when his collar was grabbed again. The familiar body odor made him stop in a hurry so that he would not be pinched in his armpits again.
“Kid, you just upset Uncle Qin’s health and upset a few uncles, so they didn’t have a good time. You really deserve to die a thousand deaths. How about letting me cook a few dishes for you to taste?”
The collar was loose, and the several state officials sat behind the table, sipping tea, waiting for Yun Ye to make them something to eat.
