"Sir, please get up first..." Liu Che hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't make up his mind.
In this era, women could be officials (Xu negative), hold titles (a large number of women who were relatives of the Liu family were basically feudal lords), and could also have the right to inherit property and land (Han law. The post-disposition law stipulates that women have the right to inherit property and land).
The right to inherit property, and even the right to inherit all the family's property), and even women can be the head of the household (Tangyi Marquis Chen Wu burst into tears. The head of the household column in his family's household registration book is marked with the name of Princess Guantao Taichang.
Daimyo), and even female aristocrats and local tycoons can open a harem like men, raise a pretty boy, and even bring the sweetheart to and from the palace openly and openly.
but……
Since the fall of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, it has become taboo for women to be in power.
Especially after the Han Dynasty experienced the painful lesson of Empress Lu taking the throne, public opinion and the ruling class became even more fearful of women taking power.
Liu Che was almost certain that if he appointed Ti Ying as the imperial physician, there would immediately be calls for "Ji Ji Si Chen, Gang Chang Li Chao".
"Your Majesty, Master Sima Ji, the doctor of the Book of Changes with two thousand stones, is asking for an audience with Taishi Ling Sima Tan outside the door..." Wang Dao came in at the right time to report.
Liu Che then took the opportunity to skip this sensitive topic and immediately said: "Please..."
Since ancient times, medical prescriptions and divination have not been divided into different families.
Sima Jizhu, as a recognized scholar in the world and a leader in the study of contemporary Yi studies, might be able to find some way to wake up Chunyu Yi.
Soon, Lord Sima Ji and Sima Tan came in hand in hand, and bowed slightly to Liu Che: "I will pay my respects to your Majesty..."
Liu Che waved his hands and said: "My dear friends, you are here just in time. The imperial doctor suddenly fainted this morning and is still awake. Please let me see if there is anything we can do."
"No!" Lord Sima Ji nodded, then stepped forward, knelt down and sat down in front of Chunyu Yi's couch, and then placed his fingers on Chunyu Yi's veins.
After a while, Lord Sima Ji stood up and sighed: "Cang Gong's overdraft was too great, which caused the internal organs to weaken and the five elements to become disordered... There is nothing I can do..."
Liu Che let out a sigh of relief.
Although he already knew this in his heart, he still couldn't help but feel disappointed.
However, birth, old age, illness and death are human nature.
Chunyu Yi is nearly seventy years old.
In this era, he is actually already living a long life.
More than 95% of people will never live to this age.
Even if you leave, it is still a joy and a loss.
"Two dear friends, come with me..." Liu Che gave instructions to Lord Sima Ji and Sima Tan.
Then he told Wang Dao: "You are waiting here. If anything happens, report it to me immediately!"
"promise!"
"Mr. Tiying, please come too..." Liu Che said to Tiying again.
So, Liu Che took the lead and led Sima Ji, Sima Tan, and Ti Ying to a side hospital of the Imperial Medical Office.
"Dr. Sima..." After arriving at the place, Liu Che asked Master Sima Ji: "My dear sir, I have been in the world for a long time and have made good friends with the world's sages. As far as I know, in today's world, can you return the favor?"
Is there a descendant of Bian Que?"
Lord Sima Ji was slightly startled when he heard this.
To be fair, all other doctors and even alchemists who use pulse diagnosis as a means of medical treatment today are descendants of Bian Que.
Even if Bian Que did not invent what medical doctors call “watching, hearing, asking, and understanding,” it was Bian Que who carried it forward.
In the history of Chinese medicine, there is a watershed between Bian Que and Bian Que.
Only after Bian Que did Chinese medicine break away from ignorant witchcraft and move towards the era of scientific and dialectical medicine application.
However, what people today call Bian Que's descendants are mainly two groups.
One branch is the lineage of Chunyu Yi.
Chunyu Yi's identity as Bian Que's successor is conclusive and self-evident.
He studied under Yang Qing, who passed down the most authentic "Mai Jing" from Chunyu Yi Bian Que's disciples, which is also the orthodox symbol of Qi Bian Que's line.
But Bian Que also had another disciple of the school.
This is the faction in Zhao State.
Legend has it that back then, Bian Que met Zhao Jianzi, diagnosed his illness, and was given 40,000 acres of land.
Therefore, Bian Que took root in the State of Zhao and taught his disciples medical skills, spreading the method of diagnosing pulses throughout the world.
This matter is indeed recorded in the history books.
Therefore, during the Warring States Period, many Zhao people did not recognize the existence of the "Qi Bian Que" lineage.
However, the war in the late Qin Dynasty put an end to all debates.
Zhao Bianque's lineage has almost completely withered away. So far, Liu Che has not heard of anyone who has a token that can prove that he is Bianque's descendant.
As for Qi Bianque's lineage, it was also passed down through two generations.
If Liu Che hadn't strongly encouraged Chun Yuyi to accept apprentices and tried his best to force apprentices and interns to be doctors, Qi Bianque's lineage would probably have followed in the footsteps of Zhao Bianque.
Of course Sima Jizhu knew, Liu Che asked him what he meant?
He is nothing more than a disciple of Zhao Bianque, and he must also be a famous doctor.
only……
Where can an old man like him find someone who cannot even be found by the emperor's labor and capital?
He shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the knowledge of the Chang Sang family is infinitely mysterious and can be taught by very few people... I believe that in the world today, after Cang Gong, there is no more Bian Que..."
Liu Che laughed after hearing this.
Chang Sang is the legendary immortal who taught Bian Que medical skills.
It is said that in those days, in addition to teaching Bian Que the method of diagnosing pulse, Chang Sang also gave Bian Que a magical potion for him to swallow.
Thirty days after Bian Que swallowed it, he had special powers.
This special function is quite strange.
It is almost a replica of the clairvoyant eye in later online novels.
This allowed Bian Que to see the internal organs of the human body with his naked eyes, and even see through the wall and see the furnishings in the neighbor's house next door.
When Liu Che was reading history, he felt that if this was true, then this Chang Sang family might be an alien.
What he did to Bian Que was a kind of genetic modification surgery, transplanting nano-bioelectronic eyes or built-in black technology similar to micro-T devices.
Otherwise, all this cannot be explained.
Of course, this is just conjecture.
In Chinese history books, there are countless similar records of suspected aliens or extraterrestrial visitors.
Some of these records are false, some are exaggerated, but some may not be metaphors for certain truths.
but……
Sima Jizhu said that Chang Sang's learning cannot be copied, but Liu Che disagreed.
If the current development trajectory continues, perhaps in a few hundred years, China will be able to develop modern medicine and manufacture X-ray and T-ray equipment.
By that time, wouldn't it be like the Chang Sang clan, which gave humans the ability to see through things?
Of course, that was hundreds of years later.
The most urgent task is to find the current candidate for the Imperial Medical Order.
"The current development trajectory and direction of the Imperial Medical Office cannot be changed!" Liu Che said to the three people in front of him: "The three dear friends all know and understand the importance of what the Imperial Medical Office is doing. I hope that the three dear friends
Since you can plan for future generations, please think carefully about who to choose as the future imperial physician for me..."
After hearing this, Tiying couldn't help but feel a little silent.
But there was nothing she could do.
"Who said I am a girl?" Tiying sighed in her heart.
Both Sima Jizhu and Sima Tan nodded.
Both of them are very aware of what the Imperial Medical Office has done in recent years.
Especially Sima Tan, as the Taishi Ling, it is his responsibility to record history.
As for the recent developments and changes in the Imperial Medical Office, he wrote down almost every detail.
In Shiqu Pavilion, there is now even a special archive to collect the medical records of the Imperial Medical Office, which is filled with detailed files on the diagnosis and treatment and even operations of the medical officers of the Imperial Medical Office.
It is also the tradition of Bian Que's family to make medical records for patients and follow them up.
Therefore, Sima Tan was very clear about the changes that had taken place in the Imperial Medical Office under the leadership of Chun Yuyi in recent years.
Needless to say, the emergence of anatomy has solved the treatment problems of many diseases that were considered terminal diseases in the past.
The establishment of medical records allows doctors to accurately track changes in the patient's condition, effectively extending the patient's life and quality of life.
But the problem is, they know these things, but outsiders don’t.
Once Chun Yuyi dies of illness, and without Bian Que's disciple to suppress him, God knows what will happen within the Imperial Medical Office, and how public opinion outside the Imperial Medical Office will change.
"Your Majesty..." Sima Tan, after thinking carefully for a long time, said respectfully: "I have a plan, I don't know if I should talk about it..."
"I love you, but it doesn't matter..."
"My niece..." Sima Tan looked at Tiying and said, "This matter may require my niece to sacrifice..."
"I heard that my niece is now a widow?" Sima Tan asked.
Tiying nodded.
She lost her husband three years ago and then devoted herself to the medical field. She has not remarried so far.
"Then this matter will be easier to deal with..." Sima said: "I heard that Dr. Ziguanglu, the special minister, has a son called Rang, a gentleman named Shi Gong. He is a gentle and elegant man, a humble gentleman, and is now serving as your majesty's imperial physician..."
He raised his head and looked at Tiying with a smile, then looked at Liu Che, and said: "Husband, this son happened to have lost his wife for more than a year and has not been married. Why don't your majesty issue an edict to make Tiying the Shi family's wife, and then give her the title of Shi's wife?"
Shi Rang is the imperial physician, and Ti Ying is assisting him. In this way, everyone in the Imperial Medical Office will have nothing to worry about!"
After hearing this, Liu Che immediately clapped his hands and praised him.
This is a good idea, and it is a good idea that kills two birds with one stone.
Shi Rang is the son of Shi Fen, Lord of Wan Shi. Although the Shi family is not a prince, it has great power in the public opinion circle.
Shi Fen not only had close friendships with the giants of various Confucian factions, but he also had close relationships with the powerful figures of the Huang-Lao sect.
If Shi Rang is appointed as the imperial physician, at least the pressure from public opinion will not be too great.
In addition, as the emperor, he lends his power to support the Imperial Medical Office. Generally speaking, there should be no open-minded people jumping up and down.
Moreover, Shi Rang has always been Liu Che's personal physician.
After he became the Imperial Physician, there would be no fools within the Imperial Physician's Office who would dare to seek death.
Liu Che knew this person relatively well.
He has superb medical skills and is a loyal person, just like his family's family tradition, he has the demeanor of an ancient gentleman.
Tiying would not suffer any loss if she married him.
In this way, the combination of Shi Rang and Ti Ying became a marriage of power and science.
It can be said that the benefits are too numerous to count.
The only question is whether Tiying is willing?
If it were the other woman, I guess there would be no need to think about this issue at all, it would definitely be a marriage.
But Tiying is different.
She is a world-famous filial daughter and a talented woman praised by scholars.
Although his appearance can only be considered average.
But Chinese people never marry for looks, beauty or anything like that. They can leave it to concubines and singers to take care of their character, talent, learning and conduct. Scholars, officials, nobles, ministers, etc. are always looking for good wives and mothers.
In this aspect, Tiying has the advantage.
As far as Liu Che knows, there are currently at least four ministers and princes who have lost their wives and are pursuing Tiying.
Among them there are many high-ranking princes with settlements of more than 5,000 households.
To be fair, Tiying's marriage to Shi Rang is a downward marriage, which will cause huge losses to Tiying herself.
"Sir, what do you think?" Liu Che looked at Tiying and asked, "Sir, if you are willing, I am willing to issue an edict immediately to propose marriage!"
We must hurry up on this matter, otherwise, once Chun Yuyi passes away, the marriage will be delayed for at least another year.
Although the Han family does not have the requirement or tradition of keeping filial piety.
However, it is the basic moral requirement of Zhu Xia not to marry after his father has died.
Generally speaking, after the death of the father, one should not marry within one year. During the period of mourning, drinking and having fun are prohibited. This is the basic requirement.
Some even have legal basis.
Tiying thought about it and said to be honest, since her husband passed away, she had never considered marrying again.
This is mainly for the sake of my children.
According to the tradition of the Han Dynasty, if a widow remarries, she will not bring her children with her.
Instead, the children will be left at her husband's house.
However, none of her three children have reached adulthood. If they are abandoned like this, it is likely to affect their lives.
Therefore, considering her children, she did not choose to remarry.
Otherwise, some princes would have married her home long ago.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Shi is gentle and elegant. He is indeed a gentleman and a good man..." Tiying thought about it carefully and then said: "It's just that I and my late husband have one son and two daughters. The eldest son is no more than twelve, and the younger daughter is only
I'm only four years old, but I really can't bear it... Your Majesty, please ask Mr. Shi if he is willing to accept my concubine and take the children there."
There's nothing to be ashamed of.
The poem goes: A graceful lady, a gentleman likes to be brave.
The folk customs of the Han Dynasty were so open that even a young girl could elope if she fell in love with a husband. Nowadays, the calmness of widows is understandable.
In fact, widowed women sometimes even get together to discuss which man is stronger and who is a more suitable husband.
Moreover, issues such as whether a widow can remarry with her children and whether she can bring her children to remarry are actually openly discussed on the table.
For example, in history, after Emperor Wu's grandmother Jin remarried, she took her son to live with the Wang family until the other party came of age.
Liu Che laughed after hearing this, patted his chest and said, "Sir, don't worry, I have made the decision for Shi Rang!"
In this matter, Shi Rang's opinion is of no use at all.
Liu Che will go directly to talk to his father.
Based on Liu Che's understanding of Shi Fen and the Shi family, I am afraid that when their family heard about it, they would raise their limbs to show their support.
Not to mention that Shi Rang will immediately gain huge political capital by marrying Ti Ying, which will also help the career of the family's children.
Just the fact that a filial daughter like Ti Ying married into the Shi family was enough to make Shi Fen excited. (.)
