Xia Wuqi's tea is not ordinary tea. In addition to the tea leaves, he also added a lot of good things, including some precious herbs. As the head of the imperial physician, Xia Wuqi lived a very poor life.
It was not big, and the carriage was not luxurious enough. The main reason was that he had collected a lot of medicinal herbs and spent a lot of money.
Zhang Cang is not the only health expert in the Han Dynasty. As an imperial physician, Xia Wuji also likes to maintain health. However, Xia Wuji feels that Zhang Cang’s health regimen is destined not to last long. There are so many concubines in the family, and they are all exhausted.
You have established a village, but you still want to maintain your health???
Chunyu Yi knelt down in front of Xia Wuji with a straight face.
Chun Yuyi was still released. After investigations by many doctors from Qi State, Jiaodong State, etc., it was determined that the death of the civilian girl had nothing to do with Chun Yuyi. Therefore, Chun Yuyi was released and came to find Xia Wu without stopping.
And say thank you.
"You are just too upright. If you had stayed in Tang State, how could something like this have happened?"
"Before your death, your master entrusted me many times to take good care of you. However, you are unwilling to follow me to Chang'an and insist on going to the people. I don't understand. Can't this medical center save people?
Look, this Guizhou people are so hateful. You saved them, but instead of thanking you, they have to thank the gods."
"If you can't cure them, they will rely on you and think that you deliberately killed them."
"You are worried about the danger of treating high-ranking officials. In fact, treating patients in the head of Guizhou is the most dangerous. At least, you have enough reputation. These high-ranking officials still know the truth and will not make things difficult for you."
Xia Wuji said unhappily, the young man in front of him was someone Xia Wuji once valued very much. This young man was very capable and good at clinical practice. Xia Wuji was even jealous that Yang Qing had such a good disciple.
Looking back at his disciples who only read medical books, I don't know how outstanding they are.
Xia Wuji even felt that after him, this guy could serve as the imperial physician.
However, the biggest problem for this guy was to avoid the government. He was unwilling to treat high-ranking officials. Because of his master's order, he had to hold an official position in the Tang Dynasty. After a few years, he found an excuse to return to Qidi and continued to treat patients in the head of Guizhou.
Qing wrote another letter before his death, and then he reluctantly served as the medical director.
However, being a medical officer in a city in Qi State and staying by the emperor's side as an imperial physician are two completely different concepts, with huge disparities in status.
Because of this incident, Xia Wuji had not interacted with him for a long time.
After hearing Xia Wuji's words, Chunyu Yi took a sip, and then said: "Xia Gong, I don't go to treat the common people because of fear. It's just that there is no shortage of doctors around high-ranking officials. There are more talented people like me."
There are countless of them, but in the local area, there are few famous doctors who treat doctors..."
"You said that the people are stupid, and when they are sick, they find witches to offer sacrifices. However, this sacrifice only costs a few dollars, and the medicine, the stick of wood incense in your tea now, is the ration of ordinary people for a month.
..."
Xia Wuji was a little angry, "You are still so stubborn, do you know what the people say about you?? They sent doctors from various places to investigate. They said that these doctors colluded with each other, protected each other, and were simply condoning each other...
.”
"According to their opinion, all the doctors who cannot cure the patients should be dragged out and executed!"
Xia Wuji cursed a few times and then said seriously: "You just stay in Chang'an and don't leave. You serve as an imperial physician here. Your Majesty saved your life, so you should repay with all your strength."
"I still can't stay. There are still many people in the place waiting for me to treat..."
Xia Wuji stood up angrily, and was so angry that he wanted to hit Chun Yuyi in front of him with the medicine box, but for some reason, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "If you don't want to stay with Your Majesty, then stay with the doctor in Chang'an."
Pavilion, here, if anything happens to you, I can take care of you."
Chun Yuyi was a little moved, but she didn't expect that Xia Wuji, who didn't have close contact with her on weekdays, was thinking about herself everywhere at the moment.
He said: "Thank you very much, Duke Xia. I dare not forget it. However, there are many doctors in Chang'an and the people are rich. I am going to resign from my official position and continue to see doctors in Qi, Chu, Wu and other places... I am trying to use cheap medicine."
Herbal medicines are used to replace those expensive ones, and some methods of growing herbal medicines have also been developed..."
"What you said can be done in Chang'an. There are many famous doctors here who can help you do it. Besides, if you can teach more disciples, it will be much more convenient than saving people yourself.
..”
"Thank you, but please forgive me for not agreeing!"
After Chunyu Yi finished speaking, he bowed down to Xia Wujie.
Xia Wuqi could no longer maintain his serious look, his face was extremely sad, and his eyes were so bitter, "Just stay!
When you stay in Chang'an, you can do whatever you want!
"
Just when Xia Wuji was about to bow to Chunyu Yi, Chunyu Yi quickly helped him up.
"Xia Gong, why are you doing this?"
Chunyu Yi was a little confused at this moment, why did he want to stay by himself?
Xia Wuji hesitated for a while and said: "That's it. Your Majesty wants to rectify the hospital, carry out innovation, and treat the people who are suffering from diseases in the world. I am responsible for this. But I am old and there is no one around me to help."
, I don’t know how to proceed. You are in your prime. If you can stay and help me, I will die without regrets..."
Hearing that it was an important matter about the medical center, Chun Yuyi also paid attention to it. He himself did not have a good reputation, but he knew that since the implementation of the policy of the medical center, it has played a great role among the people and given a lot of people a life.
Chunyu Yi alone treated more than 200 patients last year.
This was considered by Chun Yuyi to be His Majesty's greatest benevolent policy.
"May I ask what kind of innovation it is?"
Hearing his inquiry, Xia Wuqie hesitated and said hesitantly: "There are many innovations, they are all major events, I can't explain them clearly. Anyway, don't leave Chang'an in a hurry, take care of the medical center for the time being.
, how about you leave again?"
"In that case, I will help you complete this matter first, and then make any plans."
"Okay, okay, let's do it!
"
Xia Wuji held his hand very excitedly.
........
"Father! If you want to develop agriculture, you need enough manpower. However, there are still very few household registrations in various parts of the Han Dynasty. This is mainly due to difficult births and diseases. Since the establishment of the medical clinic, this has become one of your benevolent policies.
, the people will feel your kindness because of this!"
"The number of household registrations in the world is increasing rapidly, and the people are grateful. I think that if we want to develop agriculture, we must first increase the number of household registrations. Since the establishment of the medical clinic, there has been no improvement. The ministers despise it. This is because the ministers' mansions
They all have their own doctors and don’t care about civil affairs..."
In Houde Hall, Liu An was talking to his father.
He spoke of great righteousness, from people's livelihood to Liu Chang's benevolent government, and to promoting agriculture. His biggest purpose was to innovate the medical center and let the medical center treat more people.
Liu Chang narrowed his eyes and looked suspiciously at the son in front of him who was concerned about the country and the people.
This righteous Lingran looks exactly like his teacher, which is really shameless.
But Liu Chang didn't say much, he just listened carefully to Liu An's advice.
Liu An said: "Father, after I came back from Chuansikong County, I tried to help my father many times, but I was always unable to do anything. Now, I have also thought about the matter of the medical clinic this time.
It can help. I have read many books, including many medical books..."
"Please teach me this matter, father. I will definitely do my best and will not let down your high expectations..."
"An... if you want to do this, you can do it. You have your own hinterland and your own officials, so it is not difficult to do such a thing."
Liu Chang said that he also wanted Liu An to do something real. No matter how big or small, it would be good if he could do something practical.
Moreover, Liu An has moved out and there is no shortage of capable people around him. It is time to do what a prince should do.
When Liu An heard this, he was extremely excited and asked hurriedly: "Father, then I will take care of this matter?"
"good."
"Thank you very much, Father!"
"An... If you do something next time, it's really because of the people of our country, I will be happier."
Liu Chang looked at him with a solemn look.
Liu An looked at his father and opened his mouth several times, trying to explain something, but nothing came out. For the first time, Liu An felt an inexplicable feeling of guilt in front of his father. He did not dare to speak again for a while.
When I looked into my father's eyes, his face instantly turned red and he said nothing.
Liu Chang smiled and said, "It's okay. A gentleman's deeds don't care about his heart. If you can really do something, it will be considered as living up to your own status... Go ahead."
When Liu An walked out of the palace, three servants were waiting for him.
Seeing Liu An's look, Feng Tang shook his head helplessly, "Your Highness, don't worry. If His Majesty doesn't agree, then we can also borrow Xia Wuge's hand. His Majesty will definitely not reject Xia Wuge..."
"My father agreed."
"Ah??Then why does His Highness still look a little unhappy?"
"No problem, please come back to your home with me. Zhang Sheng, please go to Xia Wuji's mansion and ask him to bring many doctors to the Tang Palace to discuss important matters."
Liu An currently has only three sages, Feng Tang, Mao Chang, and Zhang Fu. Among these three, only Zhang Fu is a martial and reckless man, while the other two can be regarded as wise men.
And Liu An is also very confident in himself. With his level of knowledge, how difficult can it be to accomplish such a thing? If my father can do it, I can do it too!
........
"Your Majesty, please calm down for a while."
Cao Shu said helplessly, Liu Chang held his daughter in his arms and just shook his big head, "It's okay, I'm not tired."
"Your Majesty is not tired, but it's time for the baby to be fed... Your Majesty can't help feed it, right?"
"Oh...come on, take it, take it, don't go hungry..."
Liu Chang's doting on his daughter is really a bit jealous. Even Cao Shu, the biological mother, finds it a bit incredible. She often thinks about how miserable the young people who meet her daughter will live in the future. The two of them are ordinary people.
If there was a quarrel, this beloved man would probably chop off his head.
"Why is Your Majesty so free today?"
"What are you doing in your spare time? Those guys in the temple started biting each other again. I'm just hiding out in my spare time."
"Ah? Why are they quarreling?"
"Abolition of corporal punishment."
Liu Chang said seriously: "Chun Yuyi's incident this time still caused quite a stir. These people, including Tingwei Zhang Shizhi, proposed to abolish the five ancient corporal punishments. They believed that these five corporal punishments were too
If it is too cruel, once it is carried out, if injustice occurs, there will be no cure..."
"I believe that in a world of benevolent religion, such criminal laws should not exist."
"Zhang Shizhi wants to abolish the five punishments of Mo, Shao, Ji, Gong, and Dapi, and change them to five punishments of flogging, stick, disciple, exile, and death..."
The five ancient punishments mentioned here are: the first is carving on the face, the second is picking the nose, the third is chopping off the feet, the fourth is serving as a quick punishment, and the fifth includes lingchi, car splitting, cooking, and beheading.
including the brutal death penalty.
The five new criminal laws are whipping, beating with sticks, imprisonment, exile, and direct execution.
Cao Shu nodded and asked, "The ministers don't agree?"
Liu Chang nodded, "Yes, Ji Bu, Shen Tujia, Zhang Buyi and others are all opposed. They think that if the criminal law is too light, it will lose its deterrent effect, and people will dare to touch the law. They think
The criminal law itself should be the most cruel and can scare criminals..."
"What do you think, Your Majesty?"
"I think it would be good to abolish it. I don't quite understand Zhang Shizhi's statement that the law is for correction rather than punishment. I just think that instead of cutting off their legs, it would be better to let them go mining.
Build the city and do something useful to make up for your mistakes..."
"Zhang Shizhi also wants to abolish the law of sitting down. I am also thinking that it is unreasonable to punish others for irrelevant things. Because neighbors have committed crimes, it is necessary to arrest them all. Even if it is beneficial to the country, it is too much.
Harming the people..."
Cao Shu smiled and continued to breastfeed the child.
"Your Majesty makes your own decision. If Chao Cuo is still out there, he might be able to give you a good suggestion."
"Hmph, this guy actually wrote me a memorial in prison, saying that he was willing to execute it from his own home, and also said that he would send his son to South Vietnam first to express his will. This is a provocation to me. How can I
Can you just let him go like this? This guy is so bold, I must deal with him severely!"
"Then what are you going to do with him? Do you want to keep him locked up forever?"
"Hahaha, I have a way to deal with the ministers of the DPRK. For Chao Cuo, the best way is to ask Tingwei to send him a Kainan newspaper every day and read to him the benevolence of the fourth brother.
, while singing praises to all the princes and kings, it won’t take long for him to succumb!”
Cao Shu glanced at him and said, "There are ways to deal with it? What if it's Zhang Buyi?"
"Just lock him up and send someone to scold me outside the fence... But, I doubt he will make me angry."
Liu Chang said with great confidence.
The controversy over corporal punishment in the temple is getting more and more intense at the moment. The biggest quarrel is Taixue. At this moment, Taixue has gathered the most outstanding young talents of the Han Dynasty. These people are still very concerned about the affairs of the temple. When Confucian Newspaper talked about this
After the incident, controversy quickly arose.
There were fights almost every day in the Imperial Academy, and the soldiers wandered around the Imperial Academy all day long. Of course, they did not dare to arrest people at will. As long as they did not draw their swords, they would pretend they knew nothing.
Zhang Cang did not participate in this debate. He was still worried about the tenants.
Fortunately, Chao Cuo's idea gave Zhang Cang a new inspiration.
Zhang Cang was not as extreme as Chao Cuo, who wanted to make the tenants unable to survive first, but Chao Cuo proposed increasing taxes on wealthy households with tenants, and Zhang Cang still agreed.
Of course, it cannot be as high as Chao Cuo proposed, so that they would not dare to use tenants, but it can be used to reduce the number and avoid the emergence of a large number of tenants. At the same time, this can also increase a lot of government income.
As for the issue of migrating people, Zhang Cang still believed that it should be dealt with slowly and not too hastily. According to the idea proposed by Chao Cuo, Zhang Cang proposed a system of opening up official fields in the frontier fortress and giving farming to people who were willing to migrate. Chao Cuo's
Although the policy was not implemented, it was put to good use by Zhang Cang.
Of course, Chao Cuo, who is still in prison, does not know these things.
After a period of fighting, Zhang Shizhi and others gradually gained the upper hand. The abolition of corporal punishment group occupied the high point of public opinion. Those who supported corporal punishment could easily be labeled as Legalists. Although the status of Legalists in recent years
It's rising, but it's still not good because of the violent Qin Dynasty.
Confucianism used this incident to build momentum for itself and gained a lot of influence in the name of benevolent government. What is ridiculous is that those who want to abolish corporal punishment are the Legalists.
.........
Sitting in the Tang Palace, Liu An looked at the people in front of him seriously.
This is Liu An's Tang Palace. Privately, everyone calls it the Prince's Palace. But Liu An doesn't like this name and insists on calling it the Tang Palace. In order to distinguish it from his father's, he proposed that everyone call it the New Tang Palace.
However, it is not easy to change other people's names.
Xia Wuji sat in front of Liu An. This man no longer had his usual arrogance. He was smiling with his head almost lowered between his knees. Most of the people sitting around him were famous doctors, Chun Yu.
I am also among these people.
"Everyone, I will be responsible for the affairs of this medical clinic from now on... My mentor Feng Tang said that the biggest problem of the medical clinic is that there are too few doctors. I decided to set up a medical clinic in Chang'an, like
Like the Tang Dynasty, a large number of medical officers were trained and sent to medical clinics in various places..."
"Your Highness.
"Not only is there a shortage of doctors, but there is also a problem of expensive medicinal herbs. It is not easy to train doctors. After so many years of training, the Tang State has only trained more than 600 qualified doctors. They are spread all over the country. It is serious.
insufficient."
"In addition, herbal medicines are extremely expensive and ordinary people cannot afford them. And if they are provided for free, medical centers cannot afford them..."
The imperial doctors talked about the difficulties they had encountered one by one. The more they talked about it, the more they talked about it. From herbal medicine, doctors, to people, income and expenditure, there were countless aspects. The expressions of Liu An's two ministers changed a little.
.
When Liu An walked out of the hall with a pale face, Mao Chang said: "Your Highness, there are actually other ways to allow Chun Yuyi and his daughter to stay in Chang'an's... Innovation Medical Center, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve."
Liu An stopped and raised his head with a solemn expression.
"This state matter is about the people and the country. What does it have to do with a woman?!"
“If things don’t work out, I swear I won’t be a human being!
