Chapter 66 Prescriptions, Materia Medica, Corn
After sending Liu Wenjing away, Li Shimin found the slightly chubby eldest grandson Wuji among many officials and pulled him out.
"Let's go, follow me back to the Chengqian Palace!"
"Huh? Jiro is so anxious......"
The eldest grandson Wuji guessed why he was in a hurry to find him, and sure enough, before entering the Chengqian Palace, Erlang asked him in a low voice, "How did you copy that medical book?" ”
"Erlang's barefoot doctor's handbook is really a divine book."
The eldest grandson Wuji first praised from the bottom of his heart, and then said: "I found five famous doctors, and they were all amazed after seeing the content of the book.
It's just that there are many mysterious words in it, such as cell, cocci, hormone penicillin, etc. ”
Speaking of this, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This medical book is broad and profound, and many words are like heavenly books, even if I and the doctor go through the ancient books, we can't find the slightest source." There are so many excerpts of sentences that we don't understand, I'm afraid there are 3,000 of them. ”
Li Shimin smiled slightly, thought of the one or two corns that Chu Zhen gave him, and asked him: "The number of prescriptions in it can be changed to two catties for us?" ”
"It hasn't changed."
The eldest grandson Wuji explained: "There are also acupuncture and moxibustion timers, all of which are the number of minutes, plus the conversion number is huge, and it needs to be carefully reviewed before daring to launch it, so I indicated the number of catties and timings in the book at the beginning, and left it for later calculation." ”
"It's fine."
Li Shimin nodded, and was about to ask again, when he suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and raised his head to ask the maid in the palace not far away: "Why don't you see the princess?" ”
It stands to reason that when he returns to the Chengqian Palace, the princess will greet him in front of the palace gate.
Without waiting for the maid to answer, the eldest grandson Wuji burst out laughing, "Erlang has a great event!" You go in to see my sister, and I'll bring what you want!" ”
"By the way, call Xuan Ling too."
Li Shimin instructed him, and walked towards the inner courtyard of the Chengqian Palace.
When he walked to the door of the inner courtyard, he saw his wife, Sun Zhi, supported by two maids, and four or five maids behind him, looking at him with a smile.
Li Shimin walked a few steps further, only to find that his wife's lower abdomen was already slightly bulging and pregnant, no wonder he never went out to greet him.
"Guanyin!"
Li Shimin stepped forward excitedly and clasped her hands.
"In the public, His Royal Highness should be called a concubine and princess."
The eldest grandson corrected his title with a smile, and asked again: "You were with Da Lang just now?" ”
"Yes!" Li Shimin guessed what she wanted to say, so he smiled and said: "It just so happens that there is a barefoot medical book about how to deliver a child, and I asked people to take it to the midwife, so that they can learn it first." ”
"Ahh
Not only the eldest grandson Zhi, but also the maids and servants around him looked at him in surprise, not knowing why His Royal Highness King Qin would say such a thing.
The midwife is lowly and lowly, even the common people don't want to have more contact with them, let alone the Qin Palace?
And when the mother has a difficult birth, the midwife will dance the god and recite a spell, ask the god to come up, hold an umbrella on the roof and other strange shapes, which is daunting and reluctant to approach.
Only when the labor is about to be given will the midwife be invited into the house.
But now the king of Qin said, how to teach Wenpo to deliver ......?
"It's-"
Li Shimin reacted.
I couldn't help but recall what Chu Zhen said when he taught them:
"In ancient times, the medical conditions were not good, it was very difficult to give birth, the people who delivered the babies were based on experience, and there were no stable women in backward places, and they couldn't afford to invite them. Therefore, don't be taboo about the content of this book about midwifery, spread it more! ”
At that time, the two little ladies of the Song Dynasty and the Shun Dynasty were too ashamed to raise their heads, and Li Shimin also felt uncomfortable, and he listened to these studies for the first time.
Only Chu Zhen, who was sitting there, had the same face, and focused on the section on women giving birth to children.
Li Shimin couldn't help but admire.
Unconsciously, it is no longer taboo for women to give birth.
"Do as I say."
Li Shimin calmed down and ordered the servants: "When the medical book is brought, you also need to learn how to deliver the baby, and make sure that the princess gives birth smoothly!" ”
Several of the servants were shocked.
Li Shimin said: "Tomorrow, I will order someone to copy 100 copies of the contents of the medical book, send it to the medical halls in the city, and order them to apply what they have learned. ”
The maids and maids were still suspicious, but the eldest grandson Zhi saw something and went back to the inner courtyard, and only after no one was left and right did she ask:
"Erlang, who gave that medical book? Now you want to spread it, and you can't hide it anymore. ”
Li Shimin pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "You are right, Mr. Chu is a supernatural person, and his reputation will inevitably spread all over the world, just to use this medical book to promote Mr. Chu's name." ”
"Mr. Chu? How did Erlang know about such a miracle doctor? ”
"Mr. Chu is not only a miracle doctor!"
Li Shimin laughed and ordered someone to bring over the things that were sent back to the house before, but unfortunately because of the long distance, the fruits were distributed by him to his subordinates, and the lychees were also eaten up by him.
However, there is also tea.
……
After the fragrance of the tea was permeated, waiting for the tea to cool a little, the eldest grandson Zhi drank two cups in a row, and he was still unsatisfied.
When Li Shimin was laughing at her, the maid came to pass the word, saying that the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling had arrived.
"Erlang still remembers the corn sent by Mr. Chu, right?"
The eldest grandson Zhi laughed at him first, "I have asked how the corn is growing when I have sent letters back several times, I see that you are not the King of Qin, but an old farmer." ”
"The old farmer is not the old peasant, I will talk to you when I come back."
Li Shimin raised his head and drank a cup of tea, and walked out to meet the two.
After Fang Xuanling got the excerpts from the eldest grandson Wuji, such as "Barefoot Doctor's Prescription" and "Barefoot Doctor's Materia Medica", he flipped through a few pages, and his face remained unchanged.
But after a closer look, I finally realized that this medical book is extraordinary.
"Your Highness, this book ......!"
Fang Xuanling looked up at Li Shimin in shock, and hurriedly looked at it carefully.
The diseases, prescriptions, and herbs recorded in the book were far more detailed than any medical book he knew.
Li Shimin glanced at it, and the eldest grandson Wuji took out the original book and handed it to Fang Xuanling.
"It's-"
A thick book really shocked Fang Xuanling, the details of the content in the book, the weirdness of the words, and the details of the graphics can be called a divine book.
"This is a gift from Mr. Chu!"
Li Shimin answered the questions of the two and officially made Chu Zhen's name public.
"Mr. Chu?"
Fang Xuanling thought about it again and again, but still couldn't remember who Mr. Chu was.
He had no choice but to admonish: "Your Highness, this book is very extraordinary, and it is advisable to dedicate it to the Holy One, and the Holy One will decide it before it can be circulated." ”
Li Shimin knew what he meant, and after being silent for a long time, he agreed.
"Come with me on a trip to the city." Li Shimin stood up and greeted the two people.
"Your Highness, I still have something to ......"
"Look at the corn?"
The eldest grandson, Wuji, guessed what he meant.
Li Shimin pulled Fang Xuanling out of the door and laughed: "What is bigger than the food that can live tens of millions of people?" ”
"Tens of millions of people...... Corn?! ”
Fang Xuanling was stunned.
When he arrived at the farm outside the city, he saw that in the three acres of land surrounded by a fence, emerald green grains like sorghum were growing vigorously.
Fang Xuanling didn't see any mystery.
But the king of Qin was in high spirits, walked around the fields twice, and ordered the peasants to be rewarded and taken care of.
Fang Xuanling had to suppress his doubts, and for the time being, he put this corn and the medical book side by side, both of which were given to the King of Qin by the god Mr. Chu.
Seeing that King Qin attaches so much importance to it, maybe he will be appointed by King Qin as an agricultural official in the future to teach farmers all over the world to plant this corn.
