Of course, Li Zhi would not know what he was thinking at this time.

He is now grinding his medical teacher, Sun Huipu, and asking him to find someone to teach him the way of alchemy.

Speaking of which, all of this was caused by Sun Huipu without incident.

Because Li Zhi memorized medical books and identified medicinal materials very quickly, the pressure on his teaching was much lighter.

Under such a premise, he would take a little time out every day to tell Li Zhi some anecdotes about medicine.

Today he just happened to talk about some healers who like alchemy when they are pursuing the Dao Dharma.

This immediately reminded Li Zhi of a big weapon of death in the war, black powder.

So the unlucky Sun Huipu was entangled by Li Zhi, and he had to let Sun Huipu find him a doctor who could do alchemy.

Sun Huipu was entangled by Li Zhi at this time, and he had no choice but to open his mouth to scare him and said: "Your Highness, alchemy is very risky, I heard that many doctors were accidentally killed because of alchemy. ”

Li Zhi thought to himself: I know this much better than you, can I still be scared by you?

So he said, "Teacher, please relax, the students are just curious and want to see it, and they won't try it easily." ”

When Sun Huipu heard Li Zhi say this, he knew that he was now determined to learn alchemy.

He has been in contact with Li Zhi for so long, how can he not understand Li Zhi's temperament?

So he could only nod and agree: "I heard that the divine doctor Sun Simiao has studied this way, but the old minister is probably not qualified to invite this great power." ”

When Li Zhi heard the name Sun Simiao, his eyes lit up immediately.

He is too familiar with this name, the "King of Medicine" in later generations!

If I can have the opportunity to learn some medical skills from him, I will definitely be able to use it for life.

Thinking of this, he immediately spoke: "I'm going to ask my father to summon Doctor Sun into the palace." ”

After saying this, he ran out in a puff of smoke.

When Li Zhi told Li Shimin that he wanted to see Sun Simiao, Li Shimin was stunned for a moment.

He tentatively opened his mouth and asked Li Zhi, "Could it be that you are dissatisfied with Imperial Doctor Sun's teaching?" ”

Li Zhi shook his head and said: "Father and Emperor misunderstood, Erchen is very satisfied with the teacher's teaching, but Erchen heard that the teacher talked about Doctor Sun, so he admired it and wanted to see him." ”

Li Shimin was a little embarrassed after listening to Li Zhi's explanation.

He frowned and said, "Doctor Sun Shen has always disliked such interactions with fame and fortune, even if my father comes forward in person, I am afraid it will be difficult to do what you wish!" ”

Li Zhi was also a little disappointed after listening to Li Shimin's words, but he quickly thought of a solution.

Li Zhi opened his mouth and said to Li Shimin: "Now that the queen mother is about to give birth, why don't you just take this opportunity to recruit Doctor Sun into the palace?" ”

Li Shimin's eyes lit up after listening to Li Zhi's idea, and he immediately said happily: "Wu'er is right, this matter should be like this. ”

With Li Zhi's idea, Sun Simiao was quickly invited into the palace.

Li Zhi met him when he was checking the pulse of Empress Changsun.

When Li Zhi saw Sun Simiao for the first time, he was shocked by his appearance at this time.

Sun Simiao was born in the early years of the previous dynasty, and it is said that Sun Simiao is at least eighty years old now.

However, the Sun Simiao that Li Zhi saw in his eyes was like a silver platter, and his skin was plump.

In addition to his silver hair, standing with a man in his forties and fifties does not look old at all.

Seeing this, Li Zhi immediately decided that Sun Simiao must be a famous master who is proficient in the way of health preservation.

He decided that he must learn Sun Simiao's health preservation method in his hands.

After Sun Simiao finished treating Empress Changsun, Li Zhi immediately came up.

He first saluted Sun Simiao in a proper manner, and then said with a serious face: "Old Divine Doctor, Xiao Wang is studying medical skills, can I ask you some medical questions?" ”

Sun Simiao was very puzzled after listening to Li Zhi's words.

He couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness is the body of a thousand gold, where is the need to learn such an inferior technique?" ”

After listening to Sun Simiao's words, Li Zhi immediately shook his head and said: "Xiao Wang feels that the words of the divine doctor are wrong, in Xiao Wang's opinion, medical skills are the way of the Bodhisattva who lives people, and even if he is a daughter, it is difficult to change one or two of them. ”

Li Zhi's words made everyone present change color.

Even Li Shimin, who has always been enlightened, couldn't help frowning.

The importance of medicine is not fully appreciated by people in this era.

Even many ordinary people have never had the opportunity to see a doctor in their lifetime.

In this era, medical skills were only classified as "skills", and their social status was only slightly higher than that of ordinary people.

How can such an extraordinary judgment come out of Li Zhi's mouth now without shocking?

Sun Simiao has worked hard to study medicine all his life, and now when he hears Li Zhi's views, he feels that he has found a soulmate.

So he immediately discussed it with Li Zhi with great interest.

I only heard him ask: "Nowadays, the scholars of Shilin do not respect medical skills, why does Your Highness think so?" ”

Li Zhi did not directly answer this question.

He first asked rhetorically, "What is the world most concerned about?" ”

Sun Simiao said with a smile: "Naturally, you have no worries about food and clothing, and you will live a long life." ”

Li Zhidao: "Then what can medical skills do?" ”

Sun Simiao said: "Naturally, it is to relieve the pain and save the wounded. ”

Li Zhi said: "So can people in the world live longer without illness?" ”

Sun Simiao nodded and said, "This is natural." ”

Li Zhidao: "That's it, since medical skills can solve the things that the world cares about the most, how can medical skills be so unvalued?" ”

Li Zhi's words made everyone present fall into deep thought.

I only heard him continue: "The little king and the queen mother often go to the temple to pray for blessings, and all the people there wish for is to be free from illness and disaster. ”

Speaking of this, he looked up at Li Shimin and asked, "Father, since medical skills can do what the Buddha can do, why don't you vigorously develop medicine and pray for the ethereal gods?" ”

Li Zhi's words can be said to have directly captured Li Shimin's pain point.

Since he succeeded to the throne, he has always wanted to solve the increasing number of problems in the Tang Temple.

The temple is a very unique existence in that the monks there were able to enjoy both the Tang Dynasty's policy of equalizing land and being exempt from labor and taxes.

In addition, they can enjoy incense and donations from many devotees.

However, in fact, the existence of these temples did not solve any substantive problems, but seriously dragged down the economy of the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, not only Sun Simiao, but even Li Shimin became interested in Li Zhi's views.

So they immediately shifted their positions and came to the Taiji Hall to discuss this issue.

At this moment, none of the three of them realized the significance of this conversation.

Until something happened that shook the entire court...
