"A Thousand Golden Recipes" is Sun Simiao's painstaking work. Although Li You helped a little, Sun Simiao's efforts in this work were too much.

Moved, Li You said to the old man: "Old man, this is not good, this is your life's work." ”

Sun Simiao said seriously: "It is precisely because this is the lifelong effort of the old man. The old decay is willing to hand it over to the imperial court free of charge, so that it can play a full role to benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty. ”

Li You was very moved, but he thought that even the imperial court could not accept such a valuable gift in vain.

However, Li You didn't know how to persuade Sun Simiao. This is the embodiment of people's noble character, and it cannot be measured by money, so it is not possible to mention money to him, which will desecrate the true feelings of others.

However, after all, the old man is old, so he has to keep some money for the elderly.

Li You thought about it again and again, and said, "Old man, I accept your heart on behalf of the imperial court. However, the imperial court had patent laws that protected intellectual property rights. Therefore, you must accept the reward given to you by the imperial court. You can't break the laws of the court just because you're alone. ”

Although Sun Simiao felt that Li You's speech was not very good, he knew that Li You was worried that he would not accept the reward from the imperial court, so he deliberately said so.

Sun Simiao is an old man, he is humble and good at accepting the kindness of others, he nodded and said: "Okay, the old man will accept your kindness." ”

"Comfortable." Li You was overjoyed. He likes Sun Simiao, a well-informed person like Sun Simiao, who is very comfortable to get along with.

Li You asked, "Sir, what are your plans next?" ”

Sun Simiao said: "After the compilation of "A Thousand Golden Prescriptions" has been completed, the wish of the old man has been fulfilled. I am about to say goodbye to you and continue to practice medicine. ”

Li You was reluctant to let him leave, and he was unwilling to let him continue to sleep in the folk style at his old age. However, he knew that a character like Sun Simiao could not be persuaded to stay, and if he wanted to persuade him to stay, there must be something worthy of him to stay.

Li You said: "In the West, there is a medical technique called Western medicine. They advocate ...... In conclusion, TCM is active in preventing diseases, while Western medicine is in the passive prevention of diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes 'nourishment' in the treatment of diseases, while Western medicine emphasizes 'healing'. Traditional Chinese medicine intervenes before the disease occurs, while Western medicine waits until the disease is treated. ”

Sun Simiao was deeply attracted by Li You's description. He kept asking questions, and Li You answered them one by one according to the instructions in the science and technology library.

Sun Simiao said with emotion: "It turns out that Hua Tuo wants to give Cao Mengde a craniotomy to remove the disease, which seems to be true. That carbuncle, uh, that's what you call appendicitis, and you should be able to cure it by cutting off the lesion. ”

Li You said: "The scope of Western medicine, like Chinese medicine, is huge, and in many cases, it is faster and more effective in treating diseases.

Sir, are you interested in researching it? ”

Sun Simiao can be said to have been a human being for several lifetimes, and he has already seen through the red dust. In this world, if there is anything that can impress him, it is new and more advanced medical skills.

The old gentleman was moved, and he said: "If Your Highness doesn't dislike it, the old man is willing to be His Highness's student." ”

Li You smiled and said: "Old man, let's not say polite words, you can stay by my side for the time being, and we will discuss when we have time." As for you to study Western medicine, you need to conduct clinical trials. I can also provide this for you. ”

Sun Simiao knew that Li You was going to fight pirates, so he knew that he could provide himself with pirate corpses for autopsy, and I am afraid that only His Royal Highness the King of Qi could provide this condition for himself.

Sun Simiao no longer hesitated, and said with a smile: "Then the old decay will bother His Highness." ”

Unlike traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine requires a lot of internships, and surgery is still a manual task. Therefore, Li You suggested that Sun Simiao train a few young apprentices now. Sun Simiao agreed to his suggestion and soon selected four disciples in the army and in Jinling City.

At the end of May, a notice from the Ministry of War arrived, saying that pirates were rampant in the Dengzhou area, and asked His Royal Highness the King of Qi to send troops as soon as possible.

Governor's Palace.

Liu Renliang reported on the preparations of the navy, according to the plan, the open sea fleet (as opposed to the inland water division) left the Yangzhou military port at the end of June, and now many preparations have not been completed.

Li You showed Liu Renliang the notice of the Ministry of War, and Liu Renliang said: "Lord, since Dengzhou's coastal defense is in an emergency, the minister can lead some ships and go to Dengzhou first. ”

After studying, it was decided that Liu Renliang would lead a detachment consisting of three sail battleships of the second class, two third class, fourth class, and fifth class, as well as two supply ships, and go to the Bohai Sea first.

Two days later, Liu Renliang led the detachment to set off. The eldest grandson, Shunde, also received a notice and asked him to hurry up and prepare.

Li You is really busy, the affairs of the offshore fleet, the ocean fleet and the Changsun Shunde are complicated, and he has to spare time to deal with the affairs of the Yangzhou Governor's Mansion, and there is no time to taste Yangzhou food.

Li You is so busy and has his own plans, he comes from the afterlife, and he instinctively hates the Japanese Kou. He would love to follow the Offshore Fleet to fight pirates this time. If conditions permit, take Liu Renliang and others directly to the top of the island country. Therefore, he should be well prepared.

However, at this moment, someone came to trouble him again. It seems that for a while, his wish will be difficult to come true.

Governor's Palace.

On this day, the magpie sent a letter from Li Chengqian and a letter from Yin Guanghao.

Li You first read Li Chengqian's letter. After reading it, his face was gloomy and he scolded: "Damn it, it's really shameless." ”

"What's wrong, Brother You?" Zhang Guigui asked.

Li You handed him the letter and said, "Look at it for yourself." Then, he went to read Yin Guanghao's letter.

After reading Li Chengqian's letter, Zhang Guigui couldn't help but get angry, and said: "Li Tai is too shameless, there is such a coincidence in the world?" This obviously doesn't want to leave Chang'an. And this, and slandering His Royal Highness the Prince, this is too vicious, right? ”

Li Chengqian's letter said that on the day Li Tai left Chang'an, before he had even left the boundaries of Jingzhao Mansion, he encountered an assassin and was hit by a hammer in the leg.

Then there were rumors in Chang'an City, saying that someone was going to murder him, and pointed the finger at His Royal Highness the Prince.

At this time, after reading Yin Guanghao's letter, Li You, the content of the letter made him even more depressed. His face was solemn, and he said decisively: "Return to Chang'an immediately." ”
