The next day, after Zhu Yuan had breakfast and had just dealt with a small household chore, he received the 'good' news.

Got promoted again!

The newly promoted Hanlin bachelor of the fourth rank, who had just been promoted not long ago, went up one level and was promoted to the third rank of Hanlin bachelor.

This time, unlike before, there was a very formal edict.

It can be heard that it was written by Lao Zhu himself. It is very plain and full of praise. One of the sentences, "The knowledge he has presented is no less than the teachings of Confucianism" made Zhu Yuan extremely stressed.

The three immortals of Confucianism are: establishing virtue, establishing merit, and establishing reputation. This is the highest pursuit of countless devout Confucian students throughout their lives.

Although...

But just this sentence, how many old masters will be offended!

You can praise your ancestors, what are you doing to me?

Not only that, Lao Zhu also added a new official title to Zhu Yuan, deputy envoy of Taiyuan Hospital, ranking from the third rank, second only to the envoy of Taiyuan Hospital of the third rank.

God, please open your eyes.

I, a medical novice who has never read even half a page of a medical book, turned out to be the second-in-command of Tai Hospital, the highest medical institution in Ming Dynasty.

All right.

From now on, if we see anyone we don't like, we'll come to his home to treat him.

Deputy envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital personally appointed by His Majesty, you dare to say that the two kilograms of arsenic I prescribed will not work. You are not targeting me, you are targeting His Majesty the Emperor. Your thoughts are very dangerous!

In the living room of the mansion.

Zhu Yuan sent away Zhan Tong, another Hanlin colleague who came to convey the order. His thin body was nestled cross-legged on a thickly padded coat and a brown bearskin chair that looked like a sofa later. The old god was reading the attached book on the ground. A reward list.

He has always been promoted and made rich.

Now that you have been promoted, the rewards will certainly not be less.

The first is the generous investment of one hundred and twenty hectares of land.

According to the Ming Dynasty, one hectare is 100 acres, and one hundred and twenty hectares is equivalent to 12,000 acres. Of course, the land rewarded this time is relatively far away. It is in Suzhou. It is presumed that it was obtained by confiscating Zhang Shicheng and his troops. But it is conceivable that The fields on the other side are definitely comparable to what Zhu Yuan had before.

After all, if Suhu is familiar with it, the world will be satisfied.

In the current troubled times, land is not valuable, but it is only relative.

Similar to a high-quality paddy field that can produce a good harvest of about two stones a year, Zhu Yuan felt that no matter what, it would still cost ten taels of silver per acre, which was equivalent to Lao Zhu rewarding him with 120,000 taels of silver at one time.

Secondly, he ordered a palace to be built.

I mentioned this yesterday, but to enclose all the more than 100 acres of land on this island, the exact cost is hard to say...

Furthermore, there are fifty male and female servants each.

Haven’t watched it yet.

Compared with the first three items, there are all kinds of rare treasures of money and silk, which are only briefly browsed, and at least they are tens of thousands of taels.

Tens of thousands taels!

Xiyi opened the curtain and looked around. He saw his little official sitting cross-legged and looking like he was wandering. He called out softly. When Zhu Yuan came to his senses, he walked in with Liu Bai behind him: "Little official, the reward given by your majesty, you Do you want to count it yourself?"

Zhu Yuan did not answer, but motioned to the table next to him. Liu Bai immediately stepped forward, poured the water, and delivered it to his junior official.

After taking a sip of warm tea and putting down the cup, Zhu Yuan looked at the list again. After a moment, he raised his head and sighed: "I'm just a child, why do I have to take on such a big responsibility?"

After sighing, he turned to the two girls who pursed their lips and said nothing: "Xi Yi, what do you think if I change my name to Zhu Parker?"

Freehand: "..."

The little official started again.

Zhu Yuan is not being pretentious.

These days, he also figured out one of Lao Zhu's characteristics: the more he gives you, the more he wants.

Lao Zhu does not do loss-making business.

Now, after giving so much at once, Zhu Yuan thinks that he will be worse off than the donkeys in the production team!

For example, in this list, there is one item that Lao Zhu has obviously not forgotten, and there are twice as many items as last time.

Two hundred dollars of paper of various colors.

Now it can fill a room.

Zhu Yuan was chatting with two girls when the curtain was opened again. Qingqiu carefully came in holding a piece of brocade, showed it to Zhu Yuan and said: "Young official, one of the servants fell down, this... is dirty."

Already."

Then he sent it to Zhu Yuan.

Zhu Yuan glanced at this brocade with a bright red background and fine gold flowers. One corner seemed to have been wiped, and there were still some less obvious traces of mud and water.

Feeling something special, I picked up the list again.

Before he could find it, Liu Bai had already whispered: "Your Majesty only gave you one piece of this golden Sichuan brocade."

Qingqiu whispered: "The chamberlain is kneeling outside."

Zhu Yuan put down the list, shook his head and said, "If it's dirty, just wash it off. What else can I do? I don't even think about wrapping such a good thing."

Qingqiu argued weakly: "It's wrapped. The oil paper on the outside is broken. Fortunately, there is a layer of linen between it."

"Go and get people up, just pretend it didn't happen," Zhu Yuan said impatiently. Thinking of another thing, he asked Qingqiu: "Send him off?"

This sentence made no sense, but the three women in the room suddenly had strange expressions.

Qingqiu lowered his eyes: "Send away."

Actually, I'm talking about Qingqiu's daughter.

Qingqiu brought it over after breakfast. Zhu Yuan was shocked and realized that he had miscalculated.

According to daily knowledge in the past life, the children of women around thirty years old were usually only five or six years old, ten years old at most. And a certain girl named Gao Green Tea... is sixteen years old this year.

Zhu Yuan felt bad at that time.

ask.

My stepdaughter is older than her stepfather, what should I do?

Waiting online.

After waiting for a minute, no one answered, so Zhu Yuan just asked Miss Gao to go back and forth.

After sending Qingqiu away, Zhu Yuan saw that Liu Bao still had a strange expression and glared at her: "What are you looking at? We are not Western barbarians who don't understand etiquette. We have to avoid suspicion."

Liu Bai blinked: "Young official, I don't understand."

Zhu Yuan said: "I will find you a book of Western myths and stories in the future, and you will understand after reading it."

Liu Bai nodded: "Yeah."

But I couldn't help but think that it was impossible for the officials to drive the girl away because her feet were bound.

I just said it yesterday.

otherwise……

And the tall girl was not willing to leave. She was still holding her mother's arm and crying when she got in the car.

Zhu Yuan glanced at Liu Bai's smart eyes and turned to Xi Yi: "Liu Bai is slandering me. Please help me think about how to punish her."

Freehand: "..."

In fact, I am also complaining.

Liu Bai gradually understood the temperament of his own little official, and was not afraid. He even "provocatively" unconsciously said: "Little official, your Majesty rewarded those... I saw that there are six of them with bound feet."

As she spoke, the girl raised her two delicate hands, five plus one, and raised six green onions.

Zhu Yuan threatened: "Besides, I'll wrap your feet too."

Liu Bai curved the corners of his mouth slightly and shrank his neck in response.

After a few more random words, he was about to send the two ladies away so that they could think about life quietly. Zuo Qi opened the curtain and said, "Young official, Mr. Dai, and Sun Yuan from the Taiyuan Hospital have arrived."

Zhu Yuan sighed.

Look, it's coming.

Let me introduce myself later: Hello everyone, my name is Zhu Maolv. Although the name is ugly, the character "Zhu" has a great origin. It is Zhu Yuanzhang's Zhu!

Just thinking about it.

In order not to scare everyone, forget it.

Here they agreed, and Zuo Qi quickly let Dai Sanchun, Sun Shouzhen, the chief of Taiyuan Hospital, and a few others in.

Zhu Yuan stood up and solemnly thanked Sun Shouzhen and others for their previous life-saving grace, and also expressed his congratulations to Dai Sanchun. Zhan Tong just mentioned by the way that Dai Sanchun was promoted from the eighth-grade imperial doctor to the fourth-grade doctor.

A colleague from Taiyuan Hospital.

Obviously, Lao Zhu wanted Dai Sanchun to cooperate with him in developing new medicine.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, the guests and hosts were seated.

Freehand and the two brought tea, and Zhu Yuan was finally able to look at everyone carefully.

Sun Shouzhen, the envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital, is nearly seventy years old. He is tall and thin, has a long beard, and has a slender demeanor. One glance can give people the impression that he is an old god.

In addition to Dai Sanchun, there were three other people, namely Ge Jingshan, another imperial hospital colleague who was in the fourth grade, and two hospital judges, Lu Weigong and Du Tianxi, who were in the fifth grade. The three of them were also old men in their sixties.

While looking around, Zhu Yuan also saw joy on everyone's faces.

After talking, I found out that this morning, their group had also received rewards from His Majesty the Emperor, and there was also a promise that the royal family had just established as an ancestral system, and they would never blame doctors easily in the future.

Zhu Yuan understood that the root cause was still the incident that happened because of him.

When everyone said this, everyone, including Dai Sanchun, stood up again and saluted Zhu Yuan. Sun Shouzhen and others had already learned from Dai Sanchun that the reason why His Majesty the Emperor could make such a change was probably because of Zhu Yuan.

's advice.

As people in the game, they can understand better than Zhu Yuan how much of a guarantee this promise is for doctors.

After chatting leisurely over a cup of tea, everyone finally got to the point.

Today, His Majesty the Emperor specially sent Sun Shouzhen and his party over to discuss new medicine.

Zhu Yuan really didn't have time to think about it this time.

We can only discuss and negotiate with everyone.

First, let’s take a look at the current general situation of Tai Hospital.

After being introduced by Sun Shouzhen and others, Zhu Yuan roughly understood that the Imperial Hospital, which is a third-grade hospital, is directly managed by His Majesty the Emperor and mainly serves the royal family and officials. However, if there is a major medical event, such as an outbreak of plague, the Imperial Hospital will also be responsible for rushing to the hospital.

Relief. As well as the ongoing war, the Imperial Hospital will also organize doctors to accompany the army, as was the case before Dai Sanchun.

As for the size of Taiyuan Hospital, from top to bottom, according to later generations, there were a total of 107 people in total. Counting Zhu Yuan, the deputy envoy of Taiyuan Hospital who had just joined the nondescript hospital, there were exactly 108 people.

Zhu Yuan felt very lucky after hearing this.

I can change my name again.

Hello everyone, my name is Zhu Wu, I am the 108th General of Taiyuan Hospital, and I am the first among the 72 evil spirits!

Right.

Find another person named Chen and Yang, and change their names to "Chen Da" and "Yang Chun".

Let’s live together!

It is said that the Ming Dynasty was also a kind of literary prison. It was said that anyone who dared to use the word "bald" would have his head chopped off by Lao Zhu.

There is an interesting counter-evidence to this.

Let's take a Jinshi of the Yuan Dynasty who was the same year as Liu Bowen and completed a famous novel during the Hongwu period. In this novel, there are three robbers who appear in the second chapter, one is named 'Zhu Wu', one is named 'Chen Da', and one is named

'Yang Chun', the book seems to be afraid that readers will not understand, and deliberately adds that Zhu Wu is from Dingyuan.

Look, this is not a metaphor or a reflection, this is a joke put on the table.

The person who wrote this book is named Shi Naian, and the book is called "Water Margin".

You said it was okay for you to write a counter-proposal, but you actually made fun of His Majesty the Emperor and the two founding heroes who ranked first in the Temple of Meritorious Officers as minions. You are looking for death!

Not to mention the later Qing Dynasty, the emperors of most other dynasties couldn't bear this matter, right?

As a result, there were no heads rolling.

This novel written in the early years of Hongwu actually made it all the way through the Ming Dynasty 276. Not only was it not banned, it became one of the four famous novels. It also gave birth to the most prostitute Pan Jinlian in ancient and modern times.

Um……

Sister Pan: You just went astray, why did you have to run to me?!

Feeling that someone had scolded him, Zhu Yuan quickly retracted his thoughts.

In the hall.

After some discussion, everyone quickly decided on the first thing to do, which was to establish a specialized medical school.

This can be regarded as something Zhu Yuan and Lao Zhu talked about.

When women are selected to study medicine, they certainly cannot study at home. Since women are already being selected, we cannot favor women over men. Therefore, it is inevitable to establish a medical school.

Speaking of which, we cannot underestimate the ancients.

At the beginning of the new dynasty, many things are still being rolled out, but in the previous dynasty, institutions like Tai Hospital also trained medical talents, but the problem is that it was never systematic, and most of them were small-scale masters and apprentices. system.

The result of elite education is destined to limit the development of medicine.

Zhu Yuan felt that, in fact, it was still the same sentence, lacking direction.

Otherwise, how could there be the famous saying "If heaven does not give birth to Zhongni, eternity will be like a long night".

Ritual has been around for a long time, but it is not clear.

Confucius' greatest achievement was to point out the direction of "propriety".

For doctors to have a specialized college, not only can they train professional talents on a large scale, but they can also delve deeper into medical science. This is something that no one has ever thought of before.

So, led by Zhu Yuan, everyone quickly reached a consensus.

Everyone understands that if this thing is done, several people may be able to leave a mark in the history. Perhaps thinking of this, Sun Shouzhen's face turned a little red, and his eyes were already full of energy. His eyes were brighter, as if an immortal had descended to earth.

Leave your name in history!

Who doesn't want to?

Zhu Yuan doesn't want to, Zhu Yuan just wants to be quiet.

However, facing the constant inquiries from several old men and a staid middle-aged man around him, he could only deal with it patiently. After all, they all had the grace to save his life.

So soon there were all kinds of details.

Budget application, site selection, enrollment... and even everyone's positions, we all initially reached a tacit understanding.

Then there is the teaching and research content.

At this point, we finally had some unharmonious differences.

There are schools of Chinese medicine, and even within the same discipline among the thirteen disciplines, the theories of each school are often different.

So, who should prevail?

The solution given by Zhu Yuan is also very simple, two words: clinical.

Since we want to develop medicine systematically, we can no longer do it in small steps as before. Therefore, we must not only train many professional doctors, but also contact more and more patients in the future, and we must start setting up medical records here.

At that time, when the data is in front of you, which school and theory can cure patients better, of course, which one will be adopted.

I can feel that I still have doubts about this, but this is obviously a fair plan.

So a tacit agreement was reached.

Afterwards, everyone began to discuss the new medical ideas given by Zhu Yuan.

When this topic started, not to mention Sun Shouzhen and others, even Dai Sanchun, who had already communicated with each other, once again fell into a certain feeling that Lao Zhu had had many times.

Book from heaven?

Seeing this, when it came to the section on microorganisms, Zhu Yuan simply asked Zuo Qi to find his own craftsmen to carve convex lenses out of ice on site.

As we were carving here, Zhu Yuan had just sent Zuo Qi to get some water from the small lake in the garden, the kind that contained algae. Zhao Xu came to report again that Shan Anren, the general secretary, had arrived.

After Shan Anren finished his morning court, he followed Lao Zhu's order to discuss the garden construction with Zhu Yuan.

When the imperial doctors heard Shan Anren's intention, their expressions were somewhat strange.

Let a third-level official build a garden for another third-level official...

This isn't right.

But, this can only prove once again that His Majesty the Emperor really loves someone so much, and his treatment... is almost the same as that of a prince.

After everyone exchanged greetings, Zhu Yuan learned that Shan Anren had also brought thirty jade craftsmen and emptied two shiploads of various crystals from various places in Jinling.

Why use ‘ship’?

Because as guests, everyone came by boat from the southeast main entrance of the mansion in a polite manner.

Except for someone.

Our own craftsmen were not professional after all. Since there were thirty top craftsmen who according to Shan Anren’s introduction were specially carving jade for the royal family, of course they called directly and asked the servants to find more ice cubes.

Soon, the door to a new world opened in front of everyone.

With single-layer magnification, many tiny algae in the lake can be seen. Although the double-layer microscope failed several times due to ice sculptures, the simple telescope composed of a concave mirror and a convex mirror allowed everyone to just stand in the yard.

You can enjoy the winter scenery among the mountains around Houhu Lake.

Breathtaking.

Zhu Yuan also drew some optical diagrams of concave and convex mirrors on the spot and explained the general principles. For a while, everyone in the Imperial Hospital forgot about the medical school, and General Secretary Qing forgot about building the garden. Everyone was immersed in the wonderful world of physics.
