Chapter 1307 Do you know how many women die while giving birth to children in a year?
In the Jinluan Hall, the ministers of cultural relics were arranged in two rows, standing upright.
Soon, Xiao Jing shouted at the top of his lungs: "Your Majesty is here~"
All the ministers bowed their heads and shouted long live, and the morning court of the new day officially began.
"If there is something to do, start the show, if there is nothing to do, leave the court~"
Xiao Jing is also older, but his voice is still loud.
As soon as he finished speaking, several ministers stood up one after another, all of them seemed to be in a hurry.
"Fu Aiqing, you speak first~"
Emperor Hongzhi was also very surprised when he saw this scene.
In recent years, the Ming Dynasty has been singing and dancing, and the court has also been calm. This has not happened for some years.
So he asked Fu Han, the Minister of Rites, to tell him that among all the ministers who had come forward, his position and rank were the highest.
"Your Majesty, yesterday the Ming Dynasty Morning Post reported that the Daming Medical College performed a caesarean section on a woman."
"Originally, saving the troubled mother and son through caesarean section should be something worthy of recognition."
"But Daming Medical College has threatened to expand enrollment in the so-called obstetrics and gynecology department, and has threatened to conduct relevant research on this matter in the future."
"This is simply immoral and morally corrupt. If you continue to do dirty things in the name of research, it will inevitably lead to the moral decay of our Ming Dynasty, the collapse of etiquette and the destruction of music, the inversion of heaven and earth, the indifference of men and women, and the reversal of yin and yang. Our Ming Dynasty will be in turmoil, and the ethics will be unstable.
The moral and religious order will be completely destroyed."
"I ask Your Majesty to help our country, the Ming Dynasty, and protect our Ming Dynasty's ethics and ethical order. We must completely abolish the Ming Medical College and restore the bright world of the Ming Dynasty."
Fu Han, whose hair and beard were all white, was panting and his face was red as he spoke, as if he had been greatly insulted and looked extremely uncomfortable.
After hearing Fu Han's words, Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly, and among the officials below, Liu Jin suddenly frowned deeply.
Unexpectedly, these traditional thoughts and forces launched an attack so quickly and violently, just as I expected.
In the eyes of later generations, it was just a trivial matter, but here, it was regarded by these traditional thinking people as a major event that shook the foundation of the country.
It seems that as long as the Ming Medical College expands the department of obstetrics and gynecology and conducts related research, the entire Ming Dynasty will be turbulent and chaotic, and it will even be as terrifying as the country will be destroyed and the country will collapse.
"What do you think of this matter?"
Emperor Hongzhi had no expression on his face, looked at the ministers and asked.
Having been the emperor for twenty years, he has long been indifferent to emotions and anger.
"Your Majesty, I think what Mr. Fu said is reasonable!"
"We, the Ming Dynasty, founded our country on ethics. All dynasties have attached great importance to ethics. The ruler and ministers, father and son, the ethical code, and the movement of the sun and the moon are all order, and they are the source of the stability of the court and the country."
"Once the world is turned upside down, the sun and the moon are reversed, ethics are lost, etiquette collapses and music is ruined, the Ming Dynasty will be in danger!"
Immediately some ministers stood up and expressed their agreement.
"I also think that what Mr. Fu said is true!"
"The Ming Medical College has lost its morals. In the name of practicing medicine, it does all kinds of dirty things. There are filthy things like stethoscopes and thermometers in front of it. Now it wants to smear the innocence of the Ming women in the name of research."
"Since ancient times, women's births have been delivered by women's nuns, but Daming Medical College wants to expand its obstetrics and gynecology specialty, recruit male students, and train male nuns, and even threatens to study such things."
"This is the most ridiculous thing of all time. It exposes the filth and filth to the public, destroys our ethics, destroys our ethics, and taints the women of our great Ming Dynasty."
"We must not allow things like this to happen, otherwise our Ming Dynasty will lose all its ethical principles, the society will be in turmoil, and the country will be ruined!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Daming Medical College must be severely punished, all teachers and students must be thrown into prison, and the entire Daming Medical College, this dirty place, must be closed down!"
"If these filthy and dirty places are not eliminated, our Ming Dynasty will no longer have a bright future!"
One minister after another stood up, and each one was filled with indignation and looked extremely angry. Every word he spoke was like a sword, and they were all deadly.
Emperor Hongzhi listened to the words of each minister with an expressionless face and looked very serious, as if he believed what they said.
As for Liu Jin, his face was very ugly.
Looking at this posture, I am afraid that it is not just to target the Daming Medical College, but also has the intention to target myself. Officialdom is like a battlefield, and there are always some people who take the opportunity to attack their competitors.
There are too many people who are jealous of my position as Minister of Civil Affairs, and there are also too many people who want to sit in this position.
Daming Medical College was founded by myself, but they are so specific and serious about it. As long as this matter is determined, they can use it to attack themselves later.
Apart from anything else, if you casually impeach yourself and let yourself wear this stain, it will not be easy to be a good official again in the future.
Things in the court are far more than simple expressions.
"Liu Jin, you founded the Daming Medical College. What do you have to say about it?"
After a long time, seeing that no minister came forward again, Emperor Hongzhi also looked at Liu Jin and asked.
After hearing Emperor Hongzhi's words, the ministers suddenly became completely quiet and all looked at Liu Jin. In fact, everyone knew very well and knew whose property this Daming Medical College belongs to.
"Your Majesty~"
"The original intention of establishing Daming Medical College was to cultivate more medical talents and popularize basic medical care, so that the people of Daming can enjoy better medical care."
"Since its establishment, Daming Medical College has cultivated tens of thousands of medical talents. These medical talents are distributed in the north and south of the Ming Dynasty. They have helped the world, practiced medicine and treated diseases. They have saved countless patients."
"Daming Medical College has always implemented the purpose of its founding and has always taken cultivating talents and researching medical technology as its mission. It has made many major medical breakthroughs, discovered the types of human blood and the correct blood transfusion method, and developed surgical procedures.
, various diseases that were previously intractable and difficult to treat were treated through surgery.”
"We have also developed a method to prevent smallpox, so that the smallpox virus in our Ming Dynasty can be completely eliminated. This alone can save hundreds of thousands of people every year."
"Study new drugs to treat many difficult-to-treat diseases. Through microscopes, we have studied and discovered many bacteria, viruses, etc., and have achieved major breakthroughs in many medical fields."
"These are enough to show that what Ming Medical College has been doing is to improve the medical level of our country and serve our hundreds of millions of subjects, and is not, as some people say, a place of filth and filth.
land."
As the founder of Daming Medical College, Liu Jin naturally has to express his attitude clearly and absolutely must be the backer of Daming Medical College.
"Yes, yes~"
"In recent years, Daming Medical College has indeed developed many new drugs and treatments, curing many diseases that were previously untreatable."
"I used to have carbuncles on my back, which were cured through surgery at Daming Medical College."
"Smallpox is very serious today. Now that we have used cowpox vaccination to prevent it, we no longer report on smallpox incidents in the Ming Dynasty. In the past, there would be several such incidents every year, sometimes in a town or even a county.
Everyone is going to be wiped out by smallpox."
"Isn't that right? Here in Europe, I heard that in the past, one third of the population died from the plague."
"There are still many things worthy of recognition in Daming Medical College. There is indeed a way to practice medicine and treat diseases, which is much better than those doctors."
After hearing Liu Jin's words, many ministers nodded and expressed support.
Even Emperor Hongzhi smiled and nodded in agreement.
If Daming Medical College hadn't developed a surgical method to cure intestinal carbuncle, Emperor Hongzhi would have hiccupped and would still be alive today.
Emperor Hongzhi remembered this incident most clearly and deeply.
Those imperial doctors in the past simply looked down upon human life. Even the emperor's life could be ignored in their eyes, and they could not even detect diseases such as intestinal carbuncle.
If it weren't for Daming Medical College, Emperor Hongzhi wouldn't have dared to imagine it.
Now these pedantic ministers actually say that they want to abolish the Ming Medical College. This is simply nonsense and unreasonable. What's more, it is also the intention of Emperor Hongzhi to expand the obstetrics and gynecology department of the Ming Medical College and conduct related research.
"Liu Aiqing said it well~"
"Daming Medical College has always done a good job. It has trained a large number of medical talents and researched many drugs and treatments, which has greatly improved the medical level and technology of our country. This is worthy of recognition."
Emperor Hongzhi gave Liu Jin great support, and Liu Jin could not take the blame for this matter. What's more, this was indeed beneficial to the Ming Dynasty, but it was completely different in the eyes of these sour scholars.
"Your Majesty, Liu Jin is talking nonsense~"
"This Daming Medical College violates the natural cycle and uses corpses for dissection and research. It is already harmful to nature and makes the dead unable to rest in peace. Now it wants to study women's fertility. Isn't this a dirty and filthy place?
If it’s something dirty, what is it?”
"It is true that Daming Medical College has trained some doctors and medical talents. It has also developed many new drugs and treatments, and it has indeed saved many people."
"But this cannot cover up the fact that they are dirty and filthy, nor can it cover up the fact that they destroy ethics, morals, etiquette and order. Performing a laparotomy on a woman is not a stain on her innocence, so what is it?"
Fu Han stood up again, almost worthy of Liu Jin's scolding, as if Liu Jin was a flower-picking thief.
"Fu Han, do you know how many women die giving birth to children every year?"
"Do you know how many children I will die next year?"
When Liu Jin heard this, he immediately became angry. He also stood up and asked Fu Han unceremoniously.
