The farmer's wife spoke thus, causing everyone from the Medicine Emperor Pavilion to suddenly change expressions, especially the Medicine Men whose faces turned deathly pale.
Just now, Qi Tian and Cheng Sihai had both administered acupuncture, and within the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, the needles that could be used varied by the doctor's rank.
This was mentioned by Doctor Fan to Yun Sheng when she previously attended the assessment of Medicine Emperor Pavilion.
Within the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, starting from the rank of a doctor, silver needles are utilized for diagnosis; higher up like Cheng Sihai, gold needles are used; and at the rank of Imperial Physician, the precious Purple Gold Needles are employed.
Therefore, the needle, within the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, symbolizes one's status.
Although the farmer's wife did not recognize the needles, she was certain that the needles used by Doctor Wang on her husband that day were neither silver nor gold needles.
