Under Yang Cong's unremitting efforts to promote, "The Principle of Gewu Zhizhi" finally became popular among readers, and many readers who tried and failed even slowly dropped the "Four Books and Five Classics" and began to study "The Principle of Gewu Zhizhi".

This is a very real problem, the so-called "trees die, people live." When you can't get any future by reading the "Four Books and Five Classics", and you have to starve and freeze, and you don't know how to change it, then you have a sick brain.

In the past, there was no way for everyone to work, so many readers had no choice but to give up reading and turn to engage in family heirlooms, farming and even business.

At this time, they have the choice of "The Principle of Knowing Things", not only is they still studying to find a way out, but they also earn a lot of money, and there are more and more opportunities, and there will naturally be more and more people who study "The Principle of Knowing Things".

Perhaps, many people have the impression that the ancient scholars were the kind of rotten Confucians who read dead books and would rather starve to death than only read books and would not engage in other professions.

In fact, it was only a special case, a special exception, because the scholars who could be recorded in history were all famous Confucians or officials at that time, and even ordinary scholars were not qualified to be recorded in history, let alone ordinary scholars who had no fame.

These people are not representatives of the readers, at least they are not representatives of the average reader.

For example, there are millions of scholars in the Ming Dynasty, how many can get fame and enter the officialdom?

This kind of person is definitely less than 100,000, because all the officials of the Ming Dynasty add up to less than 100,000, and the most they can represent is the millions of people who can enter the officialdom with fame, and this kind of person accounts for less than one percent of the scholars.

And other scholars have to survive and eat, they are not the kind of rotten Confucians who would rather starve to death than only recognize reading, they are all living people, ordinary people with flesh and blood.

These people are the main body of readers, accounting for ninety percent of the main body.

If their mindset changes, the way of the world will really change.

Of course, this is a slow process, not overnight, nor a year or two, Yang Cong didn't think that he could achieve it overnight, he was just doing his best to change the concept of readers.

This process may take more than ten years or even decades, and perhaps, with the increasing influence of "The Principle of Knowledge", in a few years, this set of books will even be included in the imperial examination, who knows.

In the eyes of many people, his crazy promotion of "The Principle of Gewu Zhizhi" is nothing more than a "name", and with the promotion of "Gewu Zhizhizhi", his name as a sage has also been mentioned by more and more people.

When the dynasty can create immortal achievements, resist foreign enemies, pacify the Quartet, and be able to write books and speak in the opposition, influencing an era, what is it if you are not a sage?

Of course, he didn't ask for the name of this sage, but more and more people, especially among scholars, called him a sage, and even some people began to call him that to his face.

And the first person to call him so to his face is actually a saint, but this saint is not sanctified because of his studies, this person is Li Shizhen, the saint of medicine!

Of course, at this time, he is not a medicine saint, he is just a famous doctor in Huguang, because he cured the illness of the son of Zhu Houkun, the king of Fushun, he was recommended by Zhu Yingdi, the king of Chu, to come to the capital Tai Hospital as an imperial doctor.

He was a son of a medical family and a scholar, and it was his job to practice medicine, but he also had a greater ideal, that is, to write books and lectures and spread his medical insights.

Originally, it would be a few years before he set out to realize this ideal, because he also knew how much it would cost to publish a book, and even if he could make a huge work, he would not have the money to print it.

However, after Yang Cong's "The Principle of Knowing Things" came out, it stimulated him to the point that he couldn't do it, perhaps, with the help of Lord Yang, there would be hope for this book!

He just had the same idea as Wang Xuan at the beginning, and came to Yang Cong.

Yang Cong is busy at this time, because Lu Linger and Zhang Zhen are both born, and they happen to have a son and a daughter, which makes him a new father excited, and he stays in the backyard all day long, teasing his son for a while, hugging his daughter for a while, and he is very busy.

If ordinary people come to him at this time, he will basically not meet him, unless an important person in the court comes.

However, this Li Shizhen is not an ordinary person, as soon as he heard that the guards came to report to Imperial Doctor Li of the Tai Hospital, he subconsciously asked: "Imperial Doctor Li, but Li Shizhen Imperial Doctor Li?" ”

It's no wonder that he would ask that, because he knew such a famous doctor.

Unexpectedly, this guard really knew Li Shizhen's name, isn't this Imperial Doctor Li Li Shizhen.

This guy, the medicine saint came to visit, so he hurriedly handed his daughter back into Lu Ling'er's hands, and ran from the backyard to the lobby with a puff of smoke.

As soon as he entered the lobby, he couldn't help but be stunned, because this medicine saint was too different from the medicine saint he imagined.

At this time, Li Shizhen is only in his thirties, coupled with his superb medical skills and good maintenance, he looks like a young man in his twenties, and he seems to be a little out of step with the name of the medicine saint.

He was still stunned there, but Li Shizhen got up and said excitedly: "Xiaguan Tai Hospital sentenced Li Shizhen to see Lord Yang, oh, no, Yang Sage." ”

Sage?

Your famous saint in history actually called me a saint, Yang Cong couldn't help but be even more stunned.

He was stunned for a long time, and then he humbly said: "Master Li has won the award, what a saint, I am just an idler in the mountains." ”

Li Shizhen said seriously: "My lord, you may not know it, at this time, everyone calls you that way in the people." ”

How could Yang Cong not know, he just didn't care much about the name of this saint, but since someone called him so to his face, he couldn't pretend not to know, he thought about it and simply explained: "I can't afford the name of this saint, who dares to compare it with the sage, Yasheng Zhuzi doesn't dare." ”

Well, that's true, who would dare to compare with a saint in a scholar, Li Shizhen thought about it, and said seriously: "Since the lord doesn't want to bear the name of this sage, Yasheng can always afford it, or go down to Tongji to talk to him, and call the adult Yasheng in the future?" ”

Faint, what do you want to do with such flattery?

Yang Cong couldn't help but ask, "I don't know why Master Li came to the Humble House?" ”

When Li Shizhen heard this, he couldn't help rubbing his hands and said: "Lord Yasheng, Xiaguan wants to compile what he has learned in his life into a book and pass it on to future generations, but this medical practice is complicated, and it is not possible to exhaust it with one or two books, and the cost of this book is really unbearable, so Xiaguan, Xiaguan wants to ask Lord Yasheng if he can help." ”

So that's the case, it's a great thing, and there's no problem with helping.

However, how can this "Yasheng-sama" sound so awkward.

Yang Cong nodded, and said helplessly: "Lord Li, this book is no problem, and even if you want, I can open a medical hall for you in the School of Physics, specializing in teaching medical disciples, but don't call this Yasheng Lord, I really can't afford it." ”

When Li Shizhen heard this, he couldn't help but say excitedly: "Lord Yasheng, oh, no, Lord Yang, can Xia Guan really come to the School of Physics to open a medical hall and teach disciples?" ”

Of course, this is no problem, you are a medicine saint, and ordinary people can't invite it if they want to.

Yang Cong nodded without hesitation and said, "Really, one hundred taels of silver per month, if you feel that it is not enough, I can add more." ”

What are you kidding, a hundred taels a month is not enough, so how much more.

Li Shizhen hurriedly nodded and said, "Enough, enough, Xia Guan will resign from the errand of the Tai Hospital, and come to teach disciples and compile medical books." ”

In this way, a generation of medicine saints joined the School of Physics by chance and became an important member of the Yang Sect, and although Yang Cong did not let others call him a saint or a sub-saint or something to his face, his name of the sub-saint was confirmed after the next imperial examination.

Because his disciples Zhang Juzheng, Tan Lun and Hai Rui participated in this imperial examination and achieved amazing results, Zhang Juzheng took the lead and won the first place, while Tan Lun and Hai Rui also ranked first and third in the second class respectively.

This Yasheng Lord is really powerful, not only is he powerful, but the disciples he teaches are so powerful!
