"Grandpa, just now Xiao Yu'er said that the Imperial Medical Office recruits many female students every year. Is this true?"
Lantian County, the main hall of the Hou Mansion.
Li Zexuan looked at Ye Guozhong and asked.
He knew that there were female doctors in ancient times, but he didn't know that the Imperial Medical Office actually recruited female students!
Hearing this, Ye Guozhong nodded and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoxuan, the Imperial Medical Office does recruit female students every year, and this is not without precedent. As early as the Western Han Dynasty, there was a medical clinic in the imperial palace. The concubines during the Emperor Wu's period were just because of She had superb medical skills and was canonized by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty as the first female Chinese doctor in the history of the Western Han Dynasty.
Since Emperor Gaozu ascended the throne, the system of the Imperial Medical Office has gradually been improving, and it has gradually begun to recruit female students to serve as female officials in the palace in the future. After all, there are many concubines and princesses in the harem. If they are sick, , it is not appropriate for ordinary doctors to diagnose diseases!
There are two sources for the female students in the Imperial Medical Office. One is to select official maids aged between 20 and under 30 who are not married or have children and let them study medical skills in the Imperial Medical Office. The second is to recruit people with medical skills at that time. The women who passed the exam would be admitted directly to the Imperial Medical Office. Only after they had mastered their medical skills would they be eligible to enter the palace.
Most of the female doctors recruited from the private sector come from medical families. Their ancestors have been practicing medicine for generations. After years of accumulation, they also know a lot of experience. After being trained by the Imperial Medical Office, their medical skills are often higher than those of those who don't even have a word. I know the official maid.
Those women who want to apply for Yanhuang Academy Medical College should all fall into this category! "
Hearing this, Li Zexuan frowned, pondered in his heart for a moment, and sighed: "Listening to what you said, grandpa, if our Yanhuang Academy turns away these women who are studying, it will be a great loss!"
As far as he is concerned, he is actually happy to see women entering medical schools to study medicine, because the profession of doctor is inherently indispensable for women. First of all, there are both men and women among the patients. Although doctors do not distinguish between men and women, it is really difficult to meet Some private conditions are always inconvenient for male doctors; secondly, female doctors are generally attentive, which can be regarded as a good complement to male doctors!
Haven’t you seen that modern hospitals not only have female doctors, but also female nurses?
"Xiao Xuan, although you say so, you must not do this! Your engineering studies are deviant in the eyes of many great scholars in the world, but because you are a holy family, they can't impeach you. But if you allow women to enroll, you will give them a reason to criticize you! Yanhuang Academy, which is already in turmoil, will become the target of public criticism, and His Majesty will not be able to protect you!"
Ye Guozhong couldn't help but said anxiously when he saw Li Zexuan's expression of emotion.
Li Zexuan smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, I understand the importance, but since the Imperial Medical Office can recruit female students, there may not be no room for mediation in this matter. I will go see His Majesty tomorrow to find out what His Majesty says!"
.............................
"Mr. sir, does that matter embarrass you?"
That night, after dinner, the couple returned to the bedroom. Han Yuxi hesitated for a moment, then looked at Li Zexuan who was sitting in front of the desk reviewing official documents and said softly.
Hearing this, Li Zexuan turned around and asked, "Madam, are you talking about allowing women to enter medical school?"
"Um!"
Han Yuxi nodded, then stood up and walked to Li Zexuan, saying with a look of shame: "Ms. sir, I'm sorry, when Xiao Yu'er came to the house during the day, when I heard what she said, I felt that those women were not very pitiful for studying. In the end, she asked her to wait for you to come back and ask you to help. I didn’t expect that she would cause such a big trouble to my husband!"
Li Zexuan patted Han Yuxi's hand and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, madam! Although this matter is a bit troublesome, it is not completely unavoidable. In fact, madam must have the same idea as Xiao Yu'er, right?"
Han Yuxi's face was slightly dull, and when she saw Li Zexuan staring at her with stern eyes, she said helplessly: "Nothing can be hidden from my husband's discernment! I just feel that those women among the people came to study with a heart to benefit the common people but were rejected. , It’s really a bit pitiful. Besides, I don’t think that women can’t learn medicine well and be a good doctor. Isn’t Hu Jingang in our Zhuangzi an example now?”
Li Zexuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay! Madam, I already said it during the day. I have no intention of looking down on women. It's just that letting those women enter Yanhuang Academy will inevitably arouse criticism from the world! Tomorrow My husband went to the palace to ask His Majesty what his opinion is! It’s getting late, let’s rest!”
............................
The development of things exceeded everyone's expectations.
Since Li Zexuan launched the "Datang Dictionary" and pinyin last year, more and more people are literate among the people, including women. Once these people are literate, they will become sensible and their minds will be liberated to a certain extent. In addition, the Tang Dynasty was an era of open folk customs. At this time, the social status of women was rarely matched in the entire ancient Chinese history!
Therefore, early the next morning, "Datang Daily" offices in more than 20 counties including Chang'an City, Lantian County, Xinfeng County, Xianyang County, Yunyang County, etc. were all interested in applying for Yanhuang Academy Medical College. The women were besieged.
Many people are shouting: "Why can the Imperial Medical Office recruit female students, but Yanhuang Academy cannot?"
Another woman shouted: "We want to meet Marquis Yong'an and ask him to give us an explanation!"
After receiving the news from various places, Li Zexuan had no choice but to order the besieged "Datang Daily" office to close immediately. As for today's "Datang Daily", all the "Datang Daily" were handed over to the newsboys for sale.
Datang United Medical Center, Yong'anfang, Lantian County.
Today, doctors from all over the world gathered here to accept assessments and interviews from Sun Simiao, Dr. Qin, and Dr. Wang.
"The bamboo sieve in front of you now contains a total of nine medicinal materials. Please write the names of the medicinal materials on the paper!"
In a room on the second floor of the medical center, Sun Simiao, Dr. Qin, and Dr. Wang were invigilating the exam. In front of them were seven or eight doctors who had come to apply. Some of these people were only twenty-five or six years old, and the old ones even had gray beards. , looking at it this way, the position of physician at Datang United Medical Center is still very attractive to folk doctors. After hearing the first question asked by Sun Simiao, those people quickly began to identify the medicinal materials and wrote furiously.
"Okay! Time's up! Surprisingly, I've collected the answers they wrote!"
About half an hour later, Sun Simiao said to Hu Jingran next to him.
"Yes! Master!"
Hu unexpectedly responded, then went down to collect the answers written by those people.
Sun Simiao, Dr. Qin, and Dr. Wang took it and then reviewed it in the hall. After a while, the three people exchanged opinions. After confirming that the review results were correct, Sun Simiao announced:
"Wu Chengyi, the bamboo sieve in front of you contains Asparagus ginseng, Liuyuehan, Rock pepper grass, Panlongqi, Eucommia ulmoides, Angelica sinensis, Astragalus membranaceus, Aracenia, and Wulingzhi. The answer you just submitted is only one of them correct. Eight types, one is wrong! Except for Wu Chengyi, who is wrong, the rest all answered correctly!"
After the words fell, everyone below was happy, except for the youngest doctor, who stood up and held his hands in shame and said: "I'm really ashamed that this junior mistakenly identified Emei ginseng as Taibai ginseng. It's really inappropriate. Let Doctor Sun It’s a joke, I’ll take my leave now and won’t disturb Doctor Sun anymore!”
After saying that, this guy was ready to go out and leave the examination room.
Sun Simiao said hurriedly: "Hey! Little brother Wu, stay here. Today's assessment is not just about identifying medicinal materials. You are still young, so it is normal for you to not be able to distinguish between Emei ginseng and Taibai ginseng. But as long as you can answer the following questions well, you can still There’s a good chance that you can pass the assessment!”
Wu Chengyi was the only person under the age of thirty in this room. Seeing young people, Sun Simiao began to love talents.
Wu Chengyi was stunned. He originally thought he had no chance, but after hearing what Sun Simiao said, his heart suddenly became lively again. He quickly thanked Sun Simiao with a happy face and said: "Thank you, Doctor Sun!"
Sun Simiao nodded and said: "Well! Let's continue the assessment! Next is the question and answer session. According to the order of seating, Duan Shiqiu, you answer first. A patient often suffers from symptoms of profuse sweating, and the sweat is like beads. Stickiness, chills, cold hands and feet, weak breathing, pale complexion, or even blue lips, weak or floating pulse, what is this disease and how should it be treated?"
Duan Shiqiu is a middle-aged man in his forties. Hearing this, he frowned, pondered for a moment, and cupped his hands and said: "If Duan's prediction is correct, this person should be suffering from the disease of death of the sun. If you want to To cure it, you can use 2 taels of dragon bone, 1 tael of Guixin, 1 tael of licorice, 1 tael of Fushen, 1 tael of ginseng, 2 taels of Ophiopogon japonicus, 2 taels of oysters, 1 tael of Sichuan lacquer, add half a point of ginger, 3 jujubes, and fry When it reaches 6 minutes, remove the water and take it warm at any time!"
"Yeah! That's a good answer! Next, Zhu Caiqi, you answer..."
In the examination room, a group of doctors were racking their brains to pass the examination. Outside the examination room, the rest of the doctors were waiting anxiously. Those at the back were especially worried because they were afraid that when it was their turn, the admission quota would already be full. , then even if they are excellent, it will be meaningless!
After Li Zexuan had breakfast in the morning, he came to the United Medical Center. Although he planned to meet Li Er today, the morning court was being held in the palace at the moment. He didn't want to suffer, so he planned to wait until the morning court was over before going.
As soon as he arrived at the hospital, he saw this lively scene.
"Please invite the eight doctors behind me~!"
After asking about the location of the examination room, Li Zexuan went directly to the examination room on the second floor. As soon as he reached the door, he heard Sun Simiao's angry voice inside.
But when he saw the doctors who were applying for jobs, Li Zexuan's eyes suddenly widened because he saw a woman among the doctors!
So, he quickly quickened his pace and walked into the examination room.
Sun Simiao's surprised voice was heard inside: "Miss, we are hiring a doctor here. Anyone who has nothing to do with it, please leave!"
After the words fell, another female voice sounded in the room: "Why did Master Sun say this? This little girl is here just to take part in the medical examination of the United Medical Center. How come she has become an irrelevant person?"
Li Zexuan had already walked in at this time, but Sun Simiao didn't notice him at all. Instead, he frowned and said, "Datang United Medical Center only recruits male doctors. Shouldn't this young lady be invited back?"
"Hmph! As an outsider, how can Dr. Sun be as pedantic as those sardonic scholars? The United Medical Center of the Tang Dynasty is hiring doctors. As long as their medical skills are satisfactory, why should they care whether the applicants are male or female? Besides, the world is hiring doctors. Isn’t the little medical fairy you call me a woman? How can she be your apprentice? Why can’t I, Ge Qingyue, come to the Tang United Medical Center to save lives and heal the wounded? "
The woman said to Sun Simiao with a proud look on her face.
Everyone in the world respected and feared Sun Simiao, but this woman was not polite when she spoke to Sun Simiao.
"How can you, a little girl, be so disrespectful to Divine Doctor Sun?"
"That's right! Divine Doctor Sun has superb medical skills and has saved millions of people. He is a role model for Xinglin. How can I allow you to be a mere child and talk about it?"
Ge Qingyue's words aroused the dissatisfaction of all the doctors in the room, and everyone criticized him one after another.
Unexpectedly, Ge Qingyue was not afraid at all. She said coldly: "We are selecting doctors here. Since when do we have to rely on qualifications to rank? Doctor Sun has certainly saved many patients, but what does that have to do with me? ? I just want a fair chance to compete! If Dr. Sun blames me for his medical skills, I have nothing to say, but if it is because I am a woman, he deprives me of the opportunity to enter Datang United Medical Center. Then I’m not convinced! I’m going to find Marquis Yong’an for an explanation~!”
These words were so powerful and powerful that the doctors who had previously criticized her shut up because of the cold and arrogant aura of this girl!
Hu Jingran, who was next to Sun Simiao, subconsciously wanted to speak for her master, but she always felt that every word Ge Qingyue said made sense, so much so that she didn't say a word in rebuttal for a long time.
"Haha! I heard that someone wants to ask me for an explanation. I wonder if this is the case~?"
Li Zexuan, who was at the back of the examination room, had to come out at this time. He touched his nose and said awkwardly.
During the enrollment process of Yanhuang Academy Medical College, he would encounter women crowding around to sign up, but he never expected that in the physician recruitment examination room at Datang United Medical Center, he would also encounter female doctors who came to apply!
He had to think to himself: The folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were indeed open, and the feminism of the Tang Dynasty was indeed stronger than that of any subsequent dynasty!
"Xiaoxuan, you're here~!"
"Chief of the mountain!"
"Master, you are here!"
"Master Hou? I have met Master Hou!"
Hearing the sound, Sun Simiao, Dr. Qin, Dr. Wang, Hu Jingran and the doctors in the room all stood up and greeted him.
The woman named Ge Qingyue did not move. She looked at Li Zexuan carefully with her beautiful eyes. The surprise in her eyes flashed away. She probably did not expect that Li Zexuan looked so young. After looking at her for a moment, she bowed and said, "My little girl, Ge Qingyue, has met the Marquis~!"
