It is undeniable that Sun Simiao represented the pinnacle of medical skills in that era and influenced the development of medicine.

Under the technical conditions at that time, Sun Simiao's achievements were indeed great. But Xu Qilin did not worship, but admired.

Because in history, medical masters, including Sun Simiao, such as Hua Tuo, Bian Que, Li Shizhen, Zhang Zhongjing, etc., inevitably have historical limitations.

Do they know bacteria, do they know viruses, do they know human anatomy?

The simplest, the functions of various organs of the human body, such as the digestive system, circulatory system, etc., who could say clearly at that time?

Therefore, Xu Qilin is not afraid. He published this book on human physiology, both for the development of medicine and for the psychological preparation of doubtful controversies.

Of course, he can't admit that he has dissected the human body, and even Master Lu Yu, who has nothing to do, doesn't carry this pot. Then you can only use animals as cover.

As the saying goes: although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs. Most of the structures of some animals and humans are identical, or rather similar.

Killing pigs, sheep and cattle is a bit bloody, and it is not in line with Xu Qilin's identity, but it is much better than hurting customs and harming nature.

His Majesty Li Er looked at Xu Qilin, a little confused about his thoughts. Whether it is to correct the master's name or have other plans, it is not easy to judge.

Li Sipang also looked at Xu Qilin, what kind of character is Sun Simiao, even his father has to respect him for three points, and the folk even call him "Sun Shenxian" and "Sun Zhenren".

After His Majesty Li Er ascended the throne, he summoned Sun Simiao to Chang'an, the capital division.

When he saw Sun Simiao's seventy-year-old appearance, complexion, body shape and gait like a teenager, he sighed very much, and said: "Therefore, a person with a way is really worthy of respect!" Characters like Xianmen and Guangchengzi turned out to be in the world, how could they be lies? ”

Then, His Majesty Li Er wanted to grant Sun Simiao the title and leave him in the capital, but he refused, and still returned to the mountains to write and speak.

Xu Qilin knew this, in addition to admiring King Sun Yao, who regarded officials as dung and devoted himself to medicine, he also felt that King Sun Yao was very wise.

Imperial Doctor, treating high-ranking officials of the royal family sounds very bullish, but it is definitely a high-risk profession. No one is a god who can get rid of the disease, who dares to guarantee that any disease can be cured?

So many imperial doctors, didn't they save the life of Empress Changsun? There are also Princess Changle and her son-in-law, didn't they also die early?

Therefore, the imperial physician seems to have a respected status, and the responsibility is even greater. It is precisely because the object of treatment is a jade body and a golden branch, so the pressure of the imperial doctor can be imagined, but any small problem must be held accountable.

In the same way, the royal nobles have been in the palace for a long time, and they are all in charge of matters of entry and exit, and their bodies are often more delicate and frail than ordinary people, and they suffer from some small diseases that are not easy to cure, which is even more difficult for the imperial doctors.

In addition to the technical difficulties, the imperial physicians also had to be cautious so as not to get involved in the treacherous palace struggles.

It is for these reasons that many famous doctors in history are reluctant to enter the palace as officials. On the contrary, they prefer to retreat to the mountains and wilderness to write books and speak, or hang pots among the people to help the world.

Xu Qilin has such a conjecture, although it is not true, it does not affect his admiration for Sun Yaowang.

But it still means that admiration is admiration, but not superstition and blind worship. If Sun Yaowang recognized the correctness of the book of physiological knowledge, it would not only be of great benefit to him, but also greatly promote the development of medicine.

For example, the ancients believed that malaria was transmitted through the air, and it was not until the eighteenth century that doctors first pointed out that it could be transmitted by mosquitoes; It was not until the nineteenth century that the malaria parasite was discovered and the history of its development and how malaria spread was determined.

Xu Qilin has set up craftsmen in the glass workshop to start making optical glass, hoping to make a breakthrough in optical instruments and let people see things that are beyond the naked eye.

For his plans, of course, His Majesty Li Er and Li Sipang were not clear. They suspiciously guessed whether Xu Qilin was coming out for his teacher Lu Yu, or for himself to become famous.

"Sun Zhenren is highly respected and well-known at home and abroad, you must not make a mistake." His Majesty Li Er didn't really want Xu Qilin to win.

Xu Qilin hurriedly explained: "Weichen is not going to compete with Sun Zhenren, it is purely a medical research discussion. ”

Li Sipang blinked his eyes and suggested: "It's better not to make it public, just Sun Zhenren and Qi Lin, and outsiders are forbidden to watch." ”

His Majesty Li Er nodded and said, "That's good." Only argue falsehoods, not inferior, and do not disturb by idle people. ”

Xu Qilin had nothing to do, nodded in agreement, and added: "Actually, many theoretical things can't be distinguished from right and wrong for the time being, and there is no need to fight endlessly. It may be better to take them all out, let the world judge them, and let time verify them. ”

His Majesty Li Er thought about it, agreed with his jaw, and said, "That's not bad. For example, those health teas, you can't feel it when you first drink it, and you can see the effect after many years. ”

I know best about my physical condition.

His Majesty Li Er has high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease, and he has been drinking the health tea offered by Xu Qilin in the name of Lu Yu for several years, is there any effect, can he not count?

When he first started drinking it, His Majesty Li Er also had the intention of trying it, and he was not sure that it would definitely have an effect.

Therefore, he still agrees with Xu Qilin's suggestion. If you can't be sure, keep it and continue to study and explore, instead of having to use a battle of words to determine the authenticity.

The matter was decided, and Xu Qilin got up and retired. Out of the Qianqiu Palace, under the guidance of the palace people, he came to the Bingxia Palace.

Xu Hui's belly was already pregnant, but it was not swollen and ugly. After asking Xu Qilin about his intentions, the palace people had already brought the big fitting mirror.

"Such a big mirror?" Xu Hui was also very surprised, and knew that it was worth a lot, "If you don't have tens of thousands, I'm afraid you can't buy it, right?" ”

Xu Qilin nodded with a smile and said, "It's too big and fragile, it's not easy to transport long-distance, and the sales have been affected." Maritime merchants and Hu merchants preferred to carry small mirrors with them, as well as dressing mirrors that were square to be square. ”

"Even so, there are quite a few wealthy people in the capital who can afford it." Xu Hui got up and took a photo, very dissatisfied with his stomach, and shook his head with a wry smile.

Xu Qilin didn't tell Xu Hui about Sun Yaowang's visit to Beijing, in his opinion, it was not a big deal. It's not a competition, it's an exchange and discussion, so why bother Xu Hui to think about it?

"Is His Royal Highness Jinyang and Xincheng in the villa?" Xu Hui sat down and asked about the status of the two princesses.

Xu Qilin really didn't know very well, but he didn't think there was any problem, but he perfunctorily promised to send someone to take a look.

After checking Xu Hui's pulse and talking some gossip, Xu Qilin retired with confidence.
