Chapter 236: Building a Temple
As soon as these words came out, the room was silent.
Seeing a doctor and prescribing a prescription is like marching into battle, and the slightest carelessness will wipe out the whole army, not to mention that this is a plague that has always been curable.
Not to mention the doctor's personal ability, just saying that contamination with the plague has a great possibility of endangering life, and taking a step forward is equivalent to pinning your head to the waistband of your pants and taking a huge risk to see someone.
The old prince swept the expressions on everyone's faces and saw clearly what they were thinking.
He said in a deep voice: "This king knows that you are worried, and he can't make an order to force you to go to the doctor.
In just one word, those who are willing to treat the sick stand up, and the king promises that after your death, the king will order people to settle your family, and never let them starve and freeze and live on the streets. ”
"I am willing to do it!" The young man was the first to stand up, and he said to the crowd, "My parents are dead, I have not yet married a wife, I have no worries, and I am dead. ”
There was silence again, and in an instant, someone bowed his hand: "Lord Wang, I have an old mother in the next family, and a wife and children in the next family, so I really don't dare to take such a risk." ”
"Let's go." The old prince glanced at the housekeeper, the housekeeper handed out a bag of silver, and the old prince said, "You haven't had a good rest for the epidemic in the past three days, so take it." ”
"Thank you, lord, I will retire next."
The man took the silver tremblingly, saluted again, and turned to walk away briskly.
Some people stayed, some left, and there were a dozen or so doctors left, hesitating, the old prince waited patiently, and when the stalemate came, a gray-bearded old doctor over seventy years old took a firm step forward.
He arched his hand towards the prince, then stood up straight, faced everyone, and said: "It's not a secret, I served as a imperial physician in the palace twenty years ago, and I was fortunate to witness the medical skills of the national teacher.
The national teacher is a miracle doctor who deserves his reputation, and once the plague turns into the middle stage, the national teacher will definitely announce the prescription as soon as possible.
At that time, you only need to help people identify the symptoms, and the prescription is ready-made, and many people will definitely be saved.
We have been practicing medicine for half our lives, and if we can exchange one life for a hundred thousand lives, we will die, and we will be satisfied.
The doctor is benevolent, and he would rather have dust on the medicine shelf, and may there be no disease in the world. ”
Speaking of which, the gray-bearded old lady burst into tears, and many people also had red eyes.
In times of crisis, someone has to step up.
In order to continue to learn from the saints, to open peace for all generations, to establish a new life for heaven and earth, and to establish a life for the people, the ancient saints dared to be the first in the world, and now they have come to them, they are full of poetry and books, and they have a hand in medicine, which is the moment when the people of the world need them most.
Since the golden and noble national teachers dare to put life and death aside, why don't they ordinary people?
All the doctors said in unison: "Lord, I am willing to go to the city with the prince to see the people." ”
For three months, whether it was in the capital or elsewhere, the people were mourning all over the wilderness, a desolation, but fortunately, everyone worked together, and there was a national teacher in charge, and all the medical prescriptions of the medical records were announced, without concealing their selfishness, compared with the plague in previous dynasties, the number of deaths from the epidemic this time was less than half of the recorded in the history books.
After the plague passed, the whole country rejoiced, the people spontaneously set up temples for the national teacher, and erected statues of gods, in less than three months, large and small temples spread all over the land, and even the statues of the national teachers of Chu were built outside the Saiwai.
Although they did not receive help on the surface, secretly they sent spies to copy the prescription and spread it throughout the country.
The status of the national teacher in the hearts of the people once far exceeded that of the emperor of the current dynasty, they were respectful and pious, and really regarded the national teacher as a god.
Changle was finally able to get out of the yard, she ran to the old prince who had been tired for several months, and when she ran to the door, she heard a bang.
The old prince fell.
The old prince was very sick, and the doctors were helpless about it, Changle panicked, and the young doctor before said: "County lord, maybe the national teacher can save the prince." ”
Changle's eyes turned red: "I rushed to the capital to beg Your Majesty and ask the national teacher to treat my father." ”
She turned around and was about to get on the horse, and the young doctor hurriedly said: "The county lord can't, the prince is in danger, and it will take a lot of time to come and go, so it's better to write down the prince's illness on a piece of paper, and the county lord will order someone to send a message to the past." ”
The young doctor couldn't help but say that he wrote a full article, and then handed it to Changle.
Changle picked up the pen and wrote a letter again, and the words could be said to be pleading.
The messenger of the messenger ran and killed three horses and rushed to the capital on the fifth day, but when he asked to meet the emperor, he was refused.
The envoy suspected that he had misheard, but the eunuch did not allow for a blank look, and the envoy understood.
Although the old prince is not very old, he has to die.
The envoy left gloomily and walked to the gate of the palace, but saw the rumored Prime Minister Ji.
At dusk, the envoy carried the prescription prepared by the national teacher and hurried to Youzhou, and at the same time, a shadow guard rode a thousand miles from the Prime Minister's Mansion, in the same direction as the envoy.
The messenger hurried day and night, and on the road ten miles away from Youzhou, because he was too sleepy, he fell off his horse and died.
In the middle of the night, the lights in Changle's room were still bright, her father was seriously ill, and she couldn't sleep peacefully, so she simply waited for dawn in the room.
In the middle of the night, there were two knocks of "tuk tuk" from the window, and a dark shadow quickly passed through the window.
Changle took a deep breath, and after the black shadow left, he opened the window, and what greeted him was a letter.
Changle shook his hand and opened it, sure enough, it was a prescription, and there was a pill.
However, the handwriting of the prescription does not belong to the national teacher.
She knew who it was.
Changle immediately told the young doctor to boil the medicine, and the pill was identified by an experienced doctor as being a combination of a variety of precious medicinal materials, which could restore the dying person to normal, and its effect was comparable to that of a 10,000-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.
Changle cautiously did not give his father the pill, but waited for the young doctor's medicine.
She wasn't sure if the pill had been given by the national teacher.
While boiling the medicine, the young doctor was amazed at the idea of the person who prescribed the medicine, and a few simple herbs became a life-saving prescription.
The national teacher is really a god and a man.
He was concentrating on boiling the medicine, and suddenly he heard someone calling him outside, he turned his head and answered outward, and he didn't hear what the other party said, so he put down the fan, opened the door and went out.
It turned out that the county lord had sent a message urging him to hurry up, and the young doctor hurriedly responded, and he only delayed for less than half a minute before returning to the stove.
After waiting for a while, the medicine was ready, and the young doctor hurriedly poured out the medicine and delivered it to the county lord himself.
Changle fed the medicine to the old prince spoonful, handed out the empty bowl, the maid reached out to take it, and touched the edge of the bowl, only to hear a snap, the bowl fell to the ground and shattered.
Because the old prince vomited blood.
"Father! Father! Changle's voice was crying.
The young doctor was also shocked, and hurriedly checked the pulse of the old prince, but saw that his pulse seemed to be withered and his pupils were out of focus, which was already a sign that the oil had run out and the lamp had withered.
If the old prince was in a very poor condition before, then after this decoction, his body took a sharp turn and completely deteriorated, just like the death progress bar with half of it left was directly full.
He was shocked: "No, how is it possible! Even if the prescription is wrong, this will not happen to the prince's body! ”
