Seeing a doctor is a very common and simple matter. There are countless medical clinics and drug stores all over the world, and most of them have doctors sitting in the hall. Patients only need to go and talk to the doctor, and they can expect one-stop service right away.
If your family is noble and wealthy, you don't even have to go to the medical clinic in person. You can directly invite the doctor to come to your family to take care of everything. Especially the female relatives of most official families usually use this method.
The family even prepared many rare medicines.
Further up are the important ministers of the imperial court, especially those in Beijing. They are equivalent to having "Lao Gan Medical Insurance". Once there are three disasters and two pains, the emperor will directly send the imperial doctor from the Tai Hospital to see the patient, and the treatment is very good.
It makes others only envious. Moreover, this "Laogan Medical Insurance" not only covers high-ranking ministers, but also low-level officials who are expected to become prime ministers in the future. It is just a special decree of the emperor.
If it is even more powerful, for example, Gao Pragmatic, the world's richest man, not only has a big medical clinic, a big drug store, but also a medical department of Jinghua Artisan School as a backing, medical treatment and other things cannot be simpler.
With just one command, Li Shizhen's disciples and grandsons could come to the three halls for "diagnosis".
However, these are medical consultations for ordinary people. If the queen needs medical treatment, that is another matter.
The palace has its own system. If the queen needs to see a doctor, not only the imperial hospital must send an experienced imperial doctor to go, but also there must not be only one person there, at least two people are required to go at the same time, and there is no upper limit.
In addition, the Queen's medical consultation has its own special features, that is, the Queen is a woman, the emperor's woman. Therefore, not only does the medical treatment require more than two people, but it must also be under the direct sight of a large number of palace maids and eunuchs.
Going on further, it is absolutely impossible for an imperial doctor to treat the queen alone as shown in some TV dramas - do you want to die? If something happened to molest the queen, or even worse, you would have to
How many heads are needed to chop off?
Therefore, the Queen's willingness to allow Li Shizhen to see a doctor is just the Queen's personal attitude, and it does not mean that it will be done immediately.
It was impossible for Li Shizhen to enter the palace to treat the empress. Wouldn't the imperial hospital have no face? Moreover, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's method of palace confinement was there. Even if Li Shizhen was a famous doctor in the world, he would not be able to enter.
If Li Shizhen cannot enter the palace, then the queen can only leave the palace. But this is too difficult - it is not easy for the emperor to find a palace, let alone the queen?
I still remember that not long after Emperor Longqing ascended the throne, one day he suddenly decided to leave the palace and visit his residence, Prince Yu's Mansion. As a result, he was scolded by the officials. Even a man as tough as Gao Gong, at that time
They could only defend the emperor from the side, and tactfully said that at least the emperor was not running around. After all, it was human nature.
Gao Gong didn't dare to jump out to block the emperor's sword. It can be seen that the civil service group had a public opinion about this, and even he couldn't resist. This is especially the fault of Emperor Zhengde. Emperor Zhengde caused too much trouble in this matter.
, the civil service group is very sensitive to this, and is almost paranoid about being persecuted. At the slightest sign of trouble, everything will be shaken.
For the civil servant group, it is best for the emperor's family to be raised as pigs. This is the safest choice. Why was Empress Dowager Li so angry when Zhu Yijun sneaked out of the palace and went to Gao Yongshi's house? This is one of the reasons
1: Although Queen Mother Li has poor political acumen, she is still very afraid of "Manchu opposition". After all, her husband was very afraid back then. Although she doesn't know why, it is normal for her to be afraid.
Therefore, how the queen leaves the palace for medical treatment is a matter not to mention that the queen herself would never dare to make her own decision. Even if she is highly pragmatic, she would not dare to mess around. She must ask Zhu Yijun himself and obtain his consent before proceeding.
Even if Zhu Yijun agrees, the matter cannot be done openly and he has to find a cover.
However, it was not convenient for him to even meet Zhu Yijun before Gao Pragmatic's knighthood and promotion were completed. Of course, this matter could not be carried out and could only be postponed to a later date.
Gao Jingshi had lunch with Liu Xin in Baiyulou, and the two went to the Department of Medicine not far next door to visit Li Shizhen. Of course, the visit was fake, but it was real that Li Shizhen was prepared in advance.
There were probably sufficient stocks of all the medicines that might be needed. Li Shizhen seemed to have nothing to prepare. She just told Gao to be pragmatic and not to choose Tiangui when the queen came.
Gao Pragmatic didn't understand medical science and didn't bother to ask why, so he just agreed.
Originally, he wanted to discuss the development of the Department of Medicine with Li Shizhen on the pretense. Unexpectedly, Li Shizhen was very busy and said that although the "Compendium of Materia Medica" was compiled, after recent discussions with many doctors in the Department of Medicine, he found that there were still some mistakes and omissions.
Department, currently undergoing revision, so...
So Gao Pragmatic came out disgraced.
Coming out of the Department of Medicine, Gao Pragmatic looked at Liu Xin, smiled awkwardly, and was about to laugh at himself, but Liu Xin spoke first: "Last night and this morning, I read a lot of files, and there was one related to the craftsman
Do you want to listen to the school-related suggestions?"
Gao Pragmatic was startled and said hurriedly: "Of course you have to listen."
Liu Xin said: "Don't you think the Craftsman School should set up a branch branch?"
Gao Pingshi was moved in his heart and asked: "You mean..."
"Southern Xinjiang." Liu Xin said: "If you regard southern Xinjiang as a safe haven that you may need in the future, then southern Xinjiang must develop. To develop this kind of thing, it is not enough to rely on your continuous investment. It is just hardware, you have to
There is software.
Nowadays, the reason why Jinghua has an advantage over the local kingdoms and their people in southern Xinjiang is not just because you have money. The more important reason is that Jinghua has always had wisdom to suppress them. In addition to the technological level of the Ming Dynasty,
In addition to being higher than them, another important factor is that most of your servants there graduated from the Jinghua Craftsman School, and they also crush the locals in terms of technology and culture."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gao Pragmatic nodded and said: "Continue."
Liu Xin was indeed rude and continued: "I said it's a branch school, but actually what I mean is very simple. It's to open a new comprehensive college in southern Xinjiang. And since it's opened in southern Xinjiang, I don't think it's necessary to continue to open one in Ming Dynasty."
This low-key strategy can be changed to a nicer name."
Gao pragmatic touched his nose and said strangely: "It seems that besides me, many people have opinions on this name. Okay, I can understand it, but what do you think it should be called? Let me remind you first that it is impossible now.
It’s called XX University.”
Liu Xin shook her head and said, "I'm just making a suggestion. You have to think of the name yourself, and I can't do it for you."
Gao pragmatic smiled and said nothing.
Liu Xin added: "Besides 'branching' and changing your name, I think you have one more thing to do."
"What's the matter?" Gao pragmatically asked.
Liu Xin said: "I think you can consider recruiting a group of famous people in the opposition to join the school in Beijing, whether it is the one in the capital or the one in southern Xinjiang in the future."
Gao Pingshi heard the elegant meaning of Xiange and said with a smile: "Is this your idea or Zhiting's idea?"
Liu Xin said in surprise: "Why do you think so?"
Gao pragmatic shook his head: "Although you and I have a special relationship, there is no reason for you to treat southern Xinjiang as my personal territory. The person who would treat it this way... I think the first one is Zhiting."
Liu Xin was unconvinced and said, "Does this have anything to do with my suggestion?"
Gao Pragmatic laughed and said: "You have begun to suggest that I win over the literati in the field, and you even made it clear that southern Xinjiang should be included. If I hadn't understood the meaning, I would have died ten or eight times over the years.
"
Liu Xin said disdainfully: "So what if we win over the opposition scholars?"
Gao Pragmatic was a little surprised and asked hesitantly: "You don't know the meaning of this?"
Liu Xin frowned and said thoughtfully, "Why don't you tell me first?"
Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "To win over the opposition scholars to go to southern Xinjiang means that I have the ambition to separate the country."
"Why?" Liu Xin looked confused: "The fact that you have hundreds of thousands of troops in southern Xinjiang does not mean you have the ambition of separatist rule, but you do have the ambition of separatist rule by winning over some civil servants in the opposition? What is the reason for this? Don't talk to me.
I said that a thousand armies are easy to get but a general is hard to find, and that one sword once served as a million divisions... Now, I am afraid that you are the only one who is pragmatic and pragmatic."
Gao Pragmatic waved his hands repeatedly: "No, I know my level well. We each have a sword, and I can't even beat you."
Liu Xin smiled: "You know I didn't mean that."
Gao Pragmatic smiled, then his smile faded, and he said calmly: "Today's world is not owned by the emperor alone, nor by all the people. In fact, it is shared by the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats. And the scholar-bureaucrats in the Ming Dynasty are not hereditary, but are obtained through imperial examinations.
"Out. Although the opposition literati have no official positions, they are actually one of them. If I use a more convenient term to describe it, it is the landlord class civil servant group - to be a civil servant, you must be a landlord."
Liu Xin slowly came to the realization, frowned and said: "You mean, when you start to win over unofficial scholars to go to the academy in southern Xinjiang, the emperor will think that you are poaching him, and at the same time, there will be a separatist regime.
heart of?"
Gao Pragmatic smiled: "Last time Liu Shouyou complained in front of the emperor, saying that the Annan people only knew about Gao Pragmatic and didn't know about the emperor, but the emperor didn't care - do you think the emperor simply believed me? No, at least one of them
Another reason is that I have neither a single staff nor any attempt to win over the opposition civil servants."
"Then I don't understand." Liu Xin asked with a puzzled expression: "You are almost the leader of the Practical School now, with such a great scholarly reputation and so many official supporters.
Here, the emperor is not worried, but he is worried that you will win over some failed candidates and scholars?"
"There are so many officials in the Real School, and many of them even come from a family of officials and officials. If you were the emperor, you would be worried that they would choose to abandon their families and children, and run away from me regardless of their ancestral homeland and go to southern Xinjiang."
Days'?"
Gao pragmatic shook his head: "That's almost impossible. Even if there are a few, it won't form a trend or make any big noise. What I really have to worry about is that I want to win over the opposition scholars, because these people are easy to win over.
Behind them, they represent their respective local forces and have great potential.
In addition, don’t underestimate the failed scholars. Many powerful figures in history were failed scholars. Let’s not talk about the past. Originally, in the Qing Dynasty, you have heard of Fu Yijian, Wang Shidan, Bi Yuan, Lin Zhaotang, and Wang Yunjin.
, Liu Zizhuang, Chen Hang, Liu Fuyao, Liu Chunlin, these people?"
Liu Xin was stunned and shook her head: "I've never heard of it, what is this all about?"
Gao pragmatic smiled and said: "They are all number one."
"Uh..." Liu Xin was stunned.
Gao pragmatic added: "Then have you heard of people like Cao Xueqin, Hu Xueyan, Gu Yanwu, Jin Shengtan, Huang Zongxi, Wu Jingzi, Pu Songling, Hong Xiuquan, and Yuan Shikai?"
Liu Xin rolled her eyes: "Nonsense, although I have a bad history, I am not illiterate. How could these people not have heard of it?"
Gao Pragmatic shrugged: "They are all failed talents."
"Uh..." Liu Xin was at a loss for words. After a long while, she frowned and said, "You don't mean to say that you, the number one scholar..."
"Of course not." Gao pragmatically said: "There are many great champions. For example, Zhang Jian, the champion of the late Qing Dynasty who advocated 'saving the country through industry', was a famous industrialist, politician, and educator in modern times. He was an early pioneer in the field of cotton textiles in China.
Author, founder of Shanghai Ocean University. He founded more than 20 companies and more than 370 schools in his life, and made valuable contributions to the rise of China's modern national industry and the development of education. Which failed scholar is worse than his achievements?
Going back further, Zeng Gong, Wen Tianxiang, Wang Wei, Liu Gongquan, Guo Ziyi, He Zhizhang, Yang Shen, etc. are not the top picks in the Tang and Song dynasties.
."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Liu Xin frowned and said, "Then what do you mean by this?"
Gao pragmatic sighed and shook his head, saying: "Don't just look at things on the surface. For example, the failed scholars I just gave examples. If you look at the background of these people, you will find that they want to be someone who leaves their name in history.
It is not that easy to become a scholar.
Cao Xueqin, who wrote "Red Dream", is almost the prototype of Jia Baoyu. Not to mention his prominent family background, you must also know Jiangning Weaving. But the backgrounds of other people are actually enough to scare you.
Huang Zongxi's father, Huang Zunsu, was a Jinshi in the 44th year of Wanli;
Wu Jingzi's father, Wu Linqi, was a tribute scholar in the Bingyin year of Kangxi, equivalent to the county champion or the city champion;
Although Pu Songling's family is not a well-known family, the family members are well-educated, and there is no shortage of people who have obtained imperial examinations. His father, Pu Pan, failed to take the imperial examination and abandoned Confucianism to do business, so he made a lot of money. Pu Songling can be regarded as coming from a wealthy family;
Yuan Shikai came from a big family. His great-uncle Yuan Jiasan was a Jinshi in the 15th year of Daoguang's reign. He was promoted to the governor of water transportation and the governor of Jiangnan River, and the military commander of eight provinces. His biological father was Yuan Baozhong, a landlord and tycoon in Xiangcheng County. His adoptive father Yuan Baoqing was elected in the eighth year of Xianfeng.
, official to second rank;
Gu Yanwu's great-grandfather Gu Zhangzhi was a Jinshi of Guichou in the 32nd year of Jiajing.
In a word, most of these "failed scholars" are not from ordinary families. They are able to achieve success in a certain area because their ancestors studied hard and laid a good economic and cultural foundation for them.
On the other hand, if I win over these failed scholars, wouldn’t I be poaching the foundations of the Ming Dynasty? So you see, when I recruit students, I accept one from Annan and one from Mongolia, but I don’t accept students from the Ming Dynasty.
Why?
Because I already have more than ten or two hundred thousand troops. If I still win over scholars to go to southern Xinjiang, it will almost be a concrete attempt to separate the regime. No matter how much the emperor trusts me and is unwilling to suppress me, he must still deal with it.
My forces are suppressing it, do you understand?"
Liu Xin was stunned for a while, then shook her head and said: "Politics is too complicated. I think it would be easier to fight..."
