Cixi had a disease when she was 45 years old, why didn t the imperial doctors dare to treat it, and

Cixi had an illness when she was 45 years old, but no doctor dared to go to **. There is a folk saying that because Cixi was pregnant, no doctor dared to make such a diagnosis.

As a widow, Cixi was pregnant at the time, and as a physician, she naturally did not dare to tell the truth about such an illness, so as not to lead to death.

It's not that the imperial doctors don't dare to treat it, it's that they are afraid that they will lose their heads when they say it, after all, it is the queen mother's pregnancy, and it is a matter of royal face.

It's not a strange disease, but because it involves Cixi's palace secrets. Besides, Cixi is the empress dowager of a country, Xianfeng has already died, and the imperial doctors have actually seen it, but they are afraid that they will be killed if they tell the truth, so they have not dared to prescribe the right medicine.

The reason why one of the three imperial physicians who took the pulse survived in the end was that he did not correctly understand the position of Cixi. For Cixi, although she is not afraid of the emperor, she is also afraid of the tongue of the people in the world, so even if it is a happy pulse, you can't make a statement, Cixi, who has been widowed for 19 years, is pregnant, whether it is from politics or other aspects, it is enough to use it as capital to deal with the Empress Dowager Cixi.

When Cixi was 26 years old, her husband Emperor Xianfeng died, and now Cixi can find someone to marry again, but Cixi's era does not allow it, and the power in Cixi's hands enables Cixi not to be afraid of imperial power, and life is extremely extravagant, and even in the state of treasury deficit, she spent 10 million taels ** for her own life, and it is rumored that the private life of the Empress Dowager Cixi is extremely chaotic. However, 19 years after Cixi was widowed, that is, when Cixi was 45 years old, a strange thing happened, that is, Cixi was pregnant. One day Cixi felt unwell and wanted to vomit, and Li Lianying, the eunuch who served Cixi at that time, saw this and found the imperial doctor to take Cixi's pulse and check what the condition was.

After the imperial doctor took the pulse, he congratulated the Empress Dowager Cixi on her joy, and Cixi said that the imperial doctor was talking nonsense and beheaded the imperial doctor. Li Lianying found a second imperial doctor for CixiBut this imperial doctor also said that Cixi was happy, and of course the Empress Dowager Cixi knew what she had done, this was Emperor Xianfeng had been dead for many years, so she naturally couldn't admit it, so she also beheaded this imperial doctor. However, when she was pregnant, she had to find a way to kill the fetus, so Cixi found another imperial doctorThis imperial doctor did not say that Cixi was pregnant, but said that the Empress Dowager Cixi had a bad stomach, so she prescribed ** medicine, and the Empress Dowager Cixi was very satisfiedeven asked this imperial physician to stay as his royal imperial physician, but the imperial physician did not dare to stay in the end, and left the palace under the pretext of going home for funerals.

Of course, the imperial physician has to tell the patient the truth, but the imperial physician also needs some flexibility, after all, the imperial doctor's head is in the hands of the person in power, and once something happens that is unfavorable to the person in power, the imperial doctor can naturally be executed.

Killing two imperial doctors in a row was not for anything else, just because Cixi's illness was not a disease, but a physiological reaction to pregnancy.

Cixi's rise to power was after the death of Emperor Xianfeng, who reached the peak of becoming a widow, and when Xianfeng died, Cixi was only 26 years old. As a woman, this is the age of prime, although she has the ability, but she needs the warmth of a man both physically and psychologically.

It is rumored that Cixi has always had a male favorite, and not yet one. After 19 years of widowhood, one day of physical discomfort, nausea, vomiting, exhaustion, and drowsiness, experienced women know that this is a typical reaction of pregnancy.

At first, Cixi may not have thought that she was pregnant, because she had been widowed for so many years and had never been negligent, so she recruited 2 imperial doctors to see her pulse. Unexpectedly, after the first imperial doctor took the pulse, he knew that she was pregnant, but the identity of Cixi's widow, pregnancy was not easy to say, so she held back for a long time and didn't say why.

After the second imperial physician saw the doctor, it was estimated that he was straightforward and fast-talking, and he might also be nervous about seeing Cixi, so as soon as Cixi asked, this imperial doctor said in front of the maid and eunuch, "Congratulations, happy to be happy!" ”

As the saying goes, if you don't work hard, you won't be lazy, and you won't be long-sighted. Cixi was very annoyed by the second imperial doctor's outspokenness, and the news of her pregnancy had a great impact on the imperial power she valued the most, so she executed both imperial doctors in order to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots.

In order to show his concern for Cixi, Cixi's son Emperor Guangxu personally brought the imperial physician to Cixi for consultation, and this imperial physician of course also knew that Cixi was pregnant, but this kind of thing could not be said explicitly, so it was said that Cixi was occasionally cold and needed to take medicine. In this way, Cixi's face was saved, and Emperor Guangxu also expressed filial piety, the best of both worlds.

In the end, the ** wind and cold medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor to Cixi was actually ** medicine, which solved Cixi's dilemma.

Regarding Cixi's visit to the doctor, there is no record in the official history, and it is largely apocryphal. From the perspective of Cixi's character, although she values power, she is very obedient to the etiquette and does not dare to challenge the etiquette. After all, if you love the Xinjueluo family when you have the power in your hands, if you can't defend the Aixinjueluo family, you are actually not qualified to do the position of the queen mother.

At this point, Cixi is still much stronger than Qin Xuan's Empress Dowager Mi Bazi.

The first two imperial doctors were more confused, prescribing medicine and talking about pregnancy, and the third imperial doctor knew what the symptoms were with a pulse.

Because two people told the truth, they would naturally be executed, and Cixi at that time could be said to be a powerful woman in the harem, but once such a scandal spread, it would undoubtedly affect the majesty of the royal family, and naturally these people who dared to tell the truth could not be let go.

Because only one person told a lie, Cixi is a person without a husband after all, and of course she will be beheaded if she is happy.

And Cixi naturally has a lot of male pets around her, of course, this was not a secret at the time, and there were even rumors that the eunuch that Cixi loved in the end was actually the male pet arranged by Cixi's side. And once Cixi suddenly began to vomit and lose her appetite, knowing that Cixi was also a person who had given birth, she naturally guessed that she might be pregnant.

And the second imperial physician didn't know why the previous imperial physician was executed, and after taking the pulse, although he didn't speak loudly, it also made Cixi murderous. Until the third imperial doctor, after knowing that Cixi was happy, he said that Cixi's discomfort was caused by a cold, and only some cold medicine was needed, and Cixi was also satisfied with this answer, and secretly put the ** medicine in the cold medicine and let Cixi take it.

Because there are two imperial doctors who are very direct and say that they are pregnant without thinking, this one is smarter.

Cixi's illness was not an ordinary illness, but she suddenly became pregnant after being widowed for many years. But the two doctors told the truth, and of course they would be killed. The third Jianghu Langzhong said that he was angry and gave her abortion pills, which solved the big trouble in the heart of the Empress Dowager Cixi.

The last imperial doctor was smarter and escaped the catastrophe, and after arranging ** medicine for Cixi, he hurriedly returned to his hometown.

Xue Fuchen, he lied that it was because Cixi's overwork caused qi and blood congestion, and there was a blood clot in his stomach, as long as it was discharged.

Only the last imperial medicine saved his life, because he told Cixi that Cixi just had a bad stomach, and as long as he took medicine, he could recover his health, so he prescribed ** medicine to Cixi.
