Chapter 418: Lost and Returned
Back at the Inspection Division, Jiao Xin picked up the book behind his elbow and looked at it carefully.
The first article is Ge Hong's own preface: People can be faithful, but they can avoid arrogance, and the meaning can be seen. Since the great changes in heaven and earth, this party has disappeared a few times, and the one who survives is the original intention of the party...... Heaven also, Hou ordered to engrave it, in order to make it interesting, lest the sick see the prescription at night......
Although the party is obscure, and the life and death of people are closely related. From sometimes, and the hidden pain and compassion, if it is urgent, it is unbearable. If there is a heart that cannot bear people, and there is a government that cannot tolerate people, then Hou Zhiren and the people will also ...... It is the one who sees my benevolence, because he sees the order in the order, and he writes the beginning and the end of it, so as to tell the husband who is unknown......
It can be seen that when Ge Hong wrote the book, he did not want to become famous, but faced the ordinary people, and used as much as possible to make the language in the book easy to understand, the prescriptions contained in the book were inexpensive and effective, and the treatment method was simple and easy.
The so-called elbow refers to the place where the sleeve is loaded with the elbow, named behind the elbow, which means that there are not many rolls, and it can be hung behind the elbow for easy carrying.
The book consists of seven hundred and thirty-three articles in eight volumes, each of which contains several, if not a dozen, of prescriptions, most of which are used for the more common sudden diseases.
For a family of imperial doctors like Jiao Xin, the prescriptions recorded in this book are too sparse and ordinary, and the medication is also messy, if you get it to the hospital, you will probably be laughed to death.
However, if you think about it, these seemingly messy things can save people's lives at a critical moment.
"Weird, weird!"
Jiao Xin couldn't help but muttered to himself, and by this time, he had already faintly sensed that something was wrong.
As a third-generation imperial doctor, in his cognition, medicine is extremely rigorous, and the drug ratio of each prescription must be exactly the same.
However, in this book, the dosage of medicinal herbs is very ambiguous, and it seems that grabbing a handful of herbs from the side of the road and stuffing them into your mouth indiscriminately can be regarded as curing.
Isn't it nonsense to treat a disease like this?
However, if a person suddenly became ill and his life was in danger, and at this time he saw an herb on the side of the road, which was the life-saving medicine recorded in the back of his elbow, what would he do?
At such a time, who dispenses and decocts medicine for him?
The only way is to eat the herbs into the stomach, the medicine has an effect, pick up a life, and then go to the hospital to find Langzhong, and then you can prescribe the right medicine and take care of it.
Even if that herb is poisonous, if you eat too much, it will be poisonous, and when your life is at stake, you will not hesitate to choose to give it a try.
Eat, there is hope to survive.
If you don't eat it, you'll have to die!
Most of the prescriptions recorded in the back of the elbow are mainly for emergencies, and the people do not understand medical skills and herbal medicine, so they only need to follow the methods recorded in the book, at least in times of crisis, they can save their lives.
For example, in the prescription for treating cold and fever malaria, the method of stirring juice with Artemisia annua is recorded.
I only said that there is a grip of Artemisia annua, men and women, old and young, big hands and small hands are different, how much is this grip?
It is not explicitly stated in the book, but it doesn't matter how much he has, just grab a handful and eat it anyway!
With Jiao Xin's medical background, he quickly grasped the essence of this book.
That's to prepare for emergencies, everywhere.
The book highlights the characteristics of "simplicity, convenience, and inexpensiveness", and the prescriptions collected should have been collected and screened by Ge Hong in the process of practicing medicine and traveling.
Moreover, Ge Hong specially selected some drugs that are relatively easy to obtain, which are easy to collect, cheap and practical.
Even in the mountains and villages where there is a shortage of medical treatment, or in the inaccessible journey, it can be used for emergency relief at any time.
Even if you have to spend money, they are all relatively cheap medicinal materials, which has completely changed the disadvantages of the previous emergency prescriptions that are not easy to understand, difficult to find, and expensive.
The oil lamp ran out and slowly went out, and the surroundings became pitch black.
Jiao Xin looked out the window, the moon was sparse, and before he knew it, it was already midnight.
He did not add oil to the lamp, but sat in the darkness until dawn.
Early the next morning, King Zhou continued to take people to various villages to treat malaria.
The people drank the water from the wells with Artemisia annua juice, and the disease began to be controlled.
However, malaria is still far from being eradicated.
Artemisia annua is thrown into the well, on the one hand, to temporarily alleviate malaria, and more importantly, because people will move around each other and repeat infection, however, no matter where they go, they have to drink water, right?
More than a dozen wells in Dongxiang have been injected with Artemisia annua, which means that the people of Dongxiang have drunk medicine, and everyone's symptoms are alleviating, so naturally there is no infection.
The next step is to prescribe the right medicine and distribute the medicinal soup to the seriously ill people.
For people who die of illness, they should be cremated as soon as possible and then buried.
A squad of errands sprinkled quicklime on the streets to remove the miasma.
After scattering on the streets, they went from house to house, especially in the homes of the sick people, and carefully sprinkled lime on the front and back, the corners and corners, once a day.
King Zhou commanded in the center, and the orders were passed down one by one, and he was very busy.
Inadvertently, it was as if I saw a familiar figure......
King Zhou couldn't help but be a little surprised, stepped forward, and saw Jiao Xin half-squatting in front of a cauldron, concentrating on boiling medicine.
"Imperial Doctor Jiao, it's okay here!"
A Lang Zhong greeted, and Jiao Xin hurried over, scooped up a spoonful and tasted it in his mouth.
"Watch the heat and cook for another quarter of an hour."
"Okay!"
Jiao Xin turned around, sniffed, and said to Lang Zhong next to the other medicine pot: "You have too much chai over there!" ”
"That'...... What to do? ”
"Add two taels each to skullcap and banxia, and add some water!"
"Okay, I'll go."
Jiao Xin shook his head, turned around, and was suddenly stunned.
"See Your Highness!"
King Zhou asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Jiao Xin Zhengse said: "The lower officials are here to help His Highness in disaster relief!" ”
"Really?"
King Zhou was a little puzzled and asked, "Didn't you say that the people walked around each other and delayed your treatment?" ”
"No, no......"
Jiao Xin hurriedly changed his words and said, "It's the ignorance of the lower officials, and I ask Your Highness to forgive your sins!" ”
King Zhou said: "What is the crime? ”
"Xiaguan, Xiaguan...... Poor learning, arrogance! ”
"Anything else?"
"Yes!"
Jiao Xin thought for a while and said, "Xia Guan doesn't know how to be flexible. ”
"Anything else?"
"And ...... The lower officials should not contradict His Highness! ”
King Zhou sighed and said, "The last thing you should do is to read medical books for half your life, but there are no people in your heart, and you are a doctor in vain!" ”
Jiao Xin's old face turned red and said, "The lower official knows that he is wrong!" ”
King Zhou asked again: "This king is very curious, aren't you very high-minded, what's wrong today, why did you suddenly change your temperament?" ”
Jiao Xin said truthfully: "Xiaguan read the back of Ge Hong's elbow last night, and he stayed awake all night. ”
"Oh? Is it? ”
The surroundings suddenly became interested, and asked again: "Tell me how you feel, is this book vulgar and unbearable, and it can't enter the eyes of your experts?" ”
Jiao Xin's face was full of shame, and he said: "After reading this book, Xia Guan knew that he had wasted more than 40 years of time, and as a doctor, he should take it as his responsibility to treat diseases and save people. In front of the people, as long as he can save people's lives, he is a good doctor! ”
"Good!"
King Zhou nodded and said, "Now you should understand, why did the emperor want to rectify the hospital, right?" ”
Jiao Xin said: "Tai Hospital adheres to the emperor's grace, but it is conservative, does not think of innovation, and only covets the false name on its head, but no one is willing to let go of his identity and do things for the people, it is time to rectify." ”
King Zhou sighed lightly and said: "You people, you have read poetry and books since childhood, you are quick to think, and you are very human, if you can keep the people in mind and do more things to benefit the country and the people, wouldn't it be the luck of the Ming Dynasty!" But I hold the medical book and refuse to let go, no matter how many books I read, I don't know how to be flexible when I encounter problems, and I don't know what to do with the times, what's the use? ”
"What Your Highness has taught you is that the lower officials have been taught!"
Today's Jiao Xin has changed greatly, and the arrogant look of the past has long disappeared, replaced by an indescribable shame.
King Zhou looked around and said, "It's important to save people now, let's talk about it after returning to Beijing!" ”
"Your Majesty will do your best to assist Your Highness!"
"You're just looking at the medicine pot here, and the other people are not at ease!"
"Yes!"
Zhu Ji, who was not far away, blended in the crowd, quietly took out charcoal and paper, recorded Jiao Xin's every move, and then put it in his arms.
After a series of combinations of punches by King Zhou, malaria was effectively controlled.
Seeing that the number of infected people was decreasing day by day, Qiu Yuan was overjoyed, and repaired a book overnight and sent it to Lantian County.
Lantian Zhixian had already learned that King Zhou had come to Dongxiang, and he planned to saddle the horse in person, but there was a rule in the Ming Law that local officials should not get too close to the vassal king, otherwise they would be punished as conspiracy.
After thinking about it, it was still a matter of life, so I had to endure it.
Now that he saw Qiu Yuan's letter and learned that Dongxiang malaria had been controlled, he didn't dare to slack off for a moment, so he hurriedly wrote a letter and handed it to Xi'an Mansion.
The prefect of Xi'an repaired another letter and handed it to the Shaanxi Political Envoy.
Then, the political envoy of Shaanxi Province personally wrote a note, and attached the letters from the Dongxiang Inspection, Lantian County, and Xi'an Prefecture to him and sent it to Beijing.
Nowadays, the 800-mile rush is rarely used because there is a railway.
No matter how fast the horse runs, it is not as fast as the train.
What's more, the train doesn't need to rest, just add coal and go.
On the third day after Song Shu arrived in Beijing, King Zhou had already left the train station and got into a carriage specially made by Jinyiwei.
When he came to the noon gate, he soon came out with a small eunuch trotting out, saying that he had been summoned by the emperor.
King Zhou bowed and saluted: "Obey the order!" ”
When he came to the imperial study, Zhu Qizhen had already come out.
"Uncle Huang, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?"
King Zhou hurriedly saluted and said, "Minister Zhu Ziyun asks the holy bow!" ”
"The emperor doesn't have to be so polite, hurry up!"
Zhu Qizhen stepped forward to help him, then took King Zhou's hand and said, "It's hard for Uncle Huang to run, I've been thinking about this for a long time, it's best for Uncle Huang to do it!" ”
King Zhou smiled and said, "What the emperor said is the matter of the hospital?" ”
"It turns out that Uncle Huang already knows!"
"When the minister was in Dongxiang, he met the doctor Zheng Jiaoxin of the Tai Hospital, and talked about it a little."
"Tai Hospital ......"
Zhu Qizhen smiled helplessly and said, "Since Uncle Huang knows, let's talk about the Tai Hospital!" ”
King Zhou nodded and said, "Most of the ministers are just hearsay, and they don't dare to show off in front of the emperor." ”
"What Uncle Huang said, what is it to show off or not, I really plan to reorganize the Tai Hospital, think about it, it is better for Uncle Huang to come forward in this matter."
"First, Uncle Huang is a master of the apricot forest, and he is quite familiar with prescriptions, medicinal materials, and methods of curing diseases."
"Second, most of those old ladies rely on the power of their families, or rely on the old to sell the old, I want to find a high-status and shock these old guys!"
King Zhou listened carefully for a long time and asked: "The accumulation of ills in the Tai Hospital will only accumulate more and more, I don't know how the emperor is going to rectify it?" ”
Zhu Qizhen thought for a while and said, "I am going to break the hereditary system of the Tai Hospital, and in the future, I will recruit young people among the people and put them in the Tai Hospital for cultivation, how about it?" ”
"This ...... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. ”
King Zhou hesitated a little, but finally shook his head.
Zhu Qizhen asked, "Why?" ”
Zhou Wangxiang was fragrant for a long time, and then said: "The grade of the Tai Hospital is not low, it is higher than that of the county magistrate, and those who occupy positions must be unwilling to move their nests." ”
Zhu Qizhen looked resolute and said: "This time it is mandatory, and those who fail the assessment will be demoted by one level!" Those who fail to pass for three consecutive years will be dismissed directly! ”
King Zhou asked again: "How is the emperor going to take the exam?" ”
"These days, I have a headache about this!"
Zhu Qizhen shook his head and said helplessly: "I was going to follow the imperial examination, and I will have a medical imperial examination, but who will be the main exam, who will make the questions, I can't pay attention to it, what does Uncle Huang think?" ”
King Zhou thought seriously for a long time, and then said, "Actually...... It doesn't matter much who will take the exam and who will write the questions. ”
Zhu Qizhen was puzzled and said, "What does Uncle Huang mean?" ”
King Zhou said solemnly: "Why didn't the emperor let them go to treat the sick and save people?" ”
"Uncle Huang is saying that he has just entered the Tai Hospital to treat and save people?"
"It's not!"
King Zhou slowly shook his head and said, "What the minister means is that instead of racking his brains to come up with those exam questions, it is better to let everyone go deep into the countryside, and whoever cures the most diseases and the most complicated will be qualified to enter the Tai Hospital." ”
Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but nod and said, "Uncle Huang's idea is good, since it is to treat diseases and save people, it makes sense to use patients as the topic." ”
King Zhou said: "Not only the candidates must participate, but everyone in the Tai Hospital must participate together, and those who fail to pass will all be eliminated!" ”
Zhu Qizhen was very happy, and he liked King Zhou's temper.
"By the way, I also set up a women's medical college, in charge of the harem, and I will ask Uncle Huang for guidance when the time comes."
King Zhou was stunned and said, "Women's Medical College...... What is it? ”
Zhu Qizhen said: "In addition to the six bureaus and one division of the Inner Palace, I have added the Shang Medical Bureau, which is the Women's Medical College. ”
