Emperor Ming Yuan was naturally aware of the external affairs. Yuan Qingling was fighting with Huiping. He was a little unhappy in his heart. He felt that they were making a fuss and violating his will. It was not that he disagreed with the establishment of a medical department.
Just slow down.
However, she was just unhappy and didn't think she could defeat Princess Huiping. After all, Huiping controlled almost all the medicine in the capital.
He thought that after a while, Yuan Qingling's side would naturally weaken.
However, Princess Huiping came to the palace to complain, saying that the prince intervened in his capacity as a court and disrupted the medicinal materials market, causing her and many medical clinics to be unable to buy medicines.
After hearing this, Emperor Ming Yuan frowned. It would be inappropriate for the prince to do this.
The urgent matters now include the civil war in southern Xinjiang, floods in the Huaijiang River, and the invasion of the Northern Desert army. He actually dotes on his wife and accompanies her to make a fuss about the hospital. Xiao He succeeds and Xiao He loses.
After appeasing Huiping, he ordered Yu Wenhao to come to the palace.
Without waiting for him to say anything, he was scolded and said that his actions were biased and disappointing.
Yu Wenhao felt very aggrieved, "Father, why are you disrupting the medicinal materials market? I don't even know."
"Who else is it if it's not you? Does your wife have such ability?" Emperor Ming Yuan said angrily.
Yu Wenhao said: "In the medicinal materials market, everyone is free to buy and sell. What's the problem? It doesn't require skills, just money. Didn't the emperor's aunt monopolize the entire market in the past? Father, you didn't say anything."
"Healthy competition is okay, but vicious fighting that harms the interests of the people is absolutely unacceptable!" Emperor Ming Yuan said angrily.
Yu Wenhao was startled, "Harming the interests of the people? Father, why did Lao Yuan harm the interests of the people? She opened a hospital and treated patients at extremely low prices."
Emperor Ming Yuan knocked on the table, really angry, "Just because she used extremely low prices, no patients came to other medical clinics. Are they drinking from the northwest wind? They can't sustain it, and all medical clinics are closed.
, can she, Yuan Qingling, cure all the people in Beijing? Also, the people are accustomed to low-cost medical treatment. After you spent all your money, you are fighting for a breath, but what will be the consequences if these people make trouble?
Have you ever thought about it?"
Yu Wenhao said curiously: "Father, if Lao Yuan's medical treatment is cheap and patients can come to see him, other people will just follow suit. How can they close their doors? They study medicine and have no other career. Why don't they continue to open medical clinics to find a way out?
Are you going to open a rice shop?"
He took a step forward and continued: "Moreover, Lao Yuan's current price is still profitable. Medical clinics and hospitals will pay taxes to the court like other medical clinics. There will be no harm to the court. The people have cheap medicine to eat. How could this happen?
What's going on?"
"If you don't make money, how can you get the money to pay taxes? If you make money, what's the difference between it and Huiping? How just to say it!"
Yu Wenhao couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "Father, how can you not make any money? Even the price that Lao Yuan has set now is still profitable. Who is willing to pay for it with money? My son is not a fool, and the Prince of Chu's palace is even more
I don’t have tens of millions of wealth to squander like this. As for comparing Lao Yuan with Aunt Huang, I disagree. How can Aunt Huang make money? She sucks human blood."
Yu Wenhao's statement made Emperor Ming Yuan feel uncomfortable. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Aren't you deliberately going against Huiping and doing things that are harmful to others and not beneficial to yourself?"
Yu Wenhao laughed, "Father, you are confused, but I am not confused!"
"Bold!" Emperor Ming Yuan shouted sharply.
Yu Wenhao knelt down obediently and said, "I know my crime!"
Emperor Ming Yuan looked at him and remembered that Concubine Hu told him a few days ago that she wanted to go out for a walk. Maybe he should pay a private visit incognito?
He knew that medical treatment was expensive, but he always believed that it was within a reasonable range. Huiping was a royal princess and would not go too far.
