"I've seen the king!"

"Alright, let's all get up."

Early the next morning, in the "field hospital" of the winter hunting camp, eleven wounded soldiers saluted Li Yuanjia with trepidation, not knowing what they were about to face.

This is the king of Han, the existence at the top of the pyramid of the Tang Dynasty.

How could such a big man suddenly come to such a place? To meet their wounded little soldiers? You must know that in addition to the heavy smell of sweat and blood, there is more of the smell of boiled herbs, which ordinary people can't stand at all, let alone the king of fine clothes and jade food since childhood?

So not only these wounded and sick, but also the doctors in charge of diagnosing and treating these wounded soldiers were also very panicked.

Li Yuanjia was not surprised at all, in fact, he knew that in front of these people, he was a high-ranking magnate, and he was the top one, if he really showed the so-called "love for soldiers like sons", not only these little soldiers would definitely panic, but even he himself was probably very awkward.

After so many years, Li Yuanjia has become accustomed to it.

Just like Chunyan and Liu Mei around him, the relationship is naturally extremely close, but no matter how close the relationship is, you can't ignore the huge gap in everyone's identity and status, otherwise Han Shan will definitely teach the two girls to be human beings every minute.

So after just waving his hand to let them get up, Li Yuanjia looked at the surrounding environment by himself.

The most common camp tent in the army, old and dirty.

There were six wounded soldiers sleeping in a tent, and although it was not to the point of being crowded with people, the space was definitely not spacious. And everyone's bedding and clothes were all messy and mixed together, exuding a smell that made people want to run outside the tent......

The most speechless thing is that there is a big puddle of sewage at the door of the tent!

Looking at the bodies of these wounded soldiers, if it was just dust and blood stains from yesterday, Li Yuanjia can guarantee that it will never be dirty like this! The thick layer of ash on the neck and behind the ears was obviously accumulated because of not taking a bath for a long time, especially the hair of the two sergeants, which was oily, as if it was a big lump of the worst hair wax, Li Yuanjia didn't even want to take a second look!

That's why the taste in the tent is so sour.

Of course, these are not the most important, the most important thing is the linen cloth for them to wrap their wounds - in fact, in Li Yuanjia's opinion, those things should be called rags.

It was tattered and very dirty, and I didn't even know if I had wrapped a wound before, and the blood stains on it had a faint smell of staleness......

This thing is wrapped in a wound, how old will it be for them to live without infection?

"Sizzle......"

Taking a deep breath, Li Yuanjia forcibly suppressed the irritability in his heart. As a physician...... At least he was a former doctor, and he really couldn't accept what he saw, but reason told him that it was normal for all this to happen in the twelfth year of Zhenguan.

More than 1,000 years of antiquity was an era of extreme scarcity.

Don't look at Li Yuanjia's fine clothes and food on weekdays, there are countless sets of clothes just worn, and there are many kinds of dresses stipulated in the "Five Rites". But for ordinary people, getting a new dress a year is often a luxury!

A clean linen cloth to wrap the wound?

What a waste!

There is also the old ash accumulated on the bodies of these sergeants, which is not to say that they don't like to be clean and don't want to take a bath often, but it is too difficult to take a hot bath after autumn.

The Tang Dynasty of this era was not short of water, but it lacked the fuel to heat it.

Li Yuanjia loves to be clean because there is everything in the palace, and someone specially boils water for him every day, but for ordinary people, not to mention that the utensils for boiling bath water are different from the utensils for boiling water and drinking, which are huge and expensive, how can it be so easy to get the fuel for boiling water?

If a person wants to take a good shower, the price to pay is really a bit big.

For example, if you want to boil enough hot water for a person to bathe, you need at least a few basic conditions - hundreds of liters of water, enough fuel, and a cauldron to boil water!

There is no running water, so you can only rely on yourself to pick it up; Without gas or electric water heaters, you have to chop your own firewood or buy firewood, or more expensive, high-grade fuels such as charcoal and briquettes.

Of course, there is more importantly, you also need a cauldron!

Traditional ceramic pots and pans have slow heat conduction and waste of fuel, but iron pots with fast heat conduction are expensive, and even small pots for stir-frying are difficult to popularize in Datang, let alone a large pot for boiling bath water!

So after really arriving in this era, Li Yuanjia found that it is not that the common people don't love cleanliness, but they can't afford to be clean! Even after more than a thousand years, there are many people who can't afford to be clean, because the environment in which they work is very difficult, and in addition to sweating countless times a day, they also have to pay the price they are unwilling to pay if they want to take a hot bath......

However, understanding is understanding, after seeing this situation, Li Yuanjia couldn't help frowning.

Too bad.

Even if the six sergeants in this tent were not seriously injured, they were all injured in the arm or calf, but after such treatment by the doctors, I am afraid it is better to do nothing, right?

After thinking for a while, Li Yuanjia looked at the middle-aged man next to him who was a little frightened: "You dealt with their injuries?" What is your name? ”

"If you go back to the king, I'll handle it."

Hurriedly bowed, and the middle-aged man hurriedly replied: "The official's name is Chen Feng, and he is a medical worker from the Imperial Medical Department...... The injuries of these sergeants were indeed dealt with by me. ”

"Oh? Medical workers? ”

After listening to the other party's answer, Li Yuanjia narrowed his eyes slightly.

Datang ...... In other words, the medical institutions in Chang'an are mainly divided into two categories, one is full-time responsible for the medical affairs of the palace, such as the Shang Pharmacy Bureau, which belongs to the palace province, and the other province and the palace officials also have special places for treating the concubines, palace people and guilty concubines; The other is the Department of Medicine, which means the Ministry of Health.

The Imperial Medical Department is divided into five categories, namely physicians, acupuncturists, masseurs, curse and forbidden masters, and medicine gardeners.

The physician is to treat people, the acupuncture master is to list the acupuncture and moxibustion separately, the masseur is the regular health care massage, and the medicine gardener is responsible for managing the medicine garden......

Seriously, it's all a serious position.

There is only one spell forbidden master who is a little nonsense, and he uses charms to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases. When he saw this name for the first time, Li Yuanjia almost thought that he had traveled to the otherworldly version of the Tang Dynasty, and there were also ** masters who had mastered forbidden spells.

The status of the doctors who treat people is also divided into high and low.

The highest is naturally called a physician, the intermediate title is a medical worker, and the junior title is a doctor. And if you want to be promoted, "like the law of the country", you have to take the exam! After passing the examination, you are allowed to promote your professional title.

can mix to the level of medical worker, which means that Chen Feng's level should not be bad.

Merely......

Looking at the terrible environment of this camp, and then looking at the tattered and dirty wound dressings on the wounded soldiers, without even opening it to look inside, Li Yuanjia had already made a judgment on this Chen Feng - let this guy treat his wounds, eleven wounded sergeants are really unlucky......
