Chapter 84 He Xi’s reputation
"Establish a medical school. Summarize the basic skills of medicine and let students learn them over a few years. After they have learned the basic skills, they can practice in the hospital and work with doctors at all levels. If you are talented and can be valued by doctors at all levels, you can Accept them as disciples. They will study more advanced medical skills. If they don’t have talent, their medical skills will have a foundation, and they can go home and make a living on their own."
"The whole world is in short supply of good doctors."
"As for the teachers and teaching materials of the medical school, the doctors of Lingtai Hospital proofread the medical books and use them as teaching materials. Although each doctor has a heart to cherish his own medicine, there are not without enlightened doctors in the world. The four great masters of Jin and Yuan Dynasty all have their own medical books. Medical books are willing to be widely disseminated."
"When laying the foundation, you don't need advanced medical skills, you only need error-free basic medical skills. It is enough to promote the world."
There is a shortage of doctors in many places. Just look at what happened to Dai Yuanli after he came to the capital. A doctor, because he recognized the wrong word, asked the patient to add a piece of tin when making medicine. This is still a capital city, and such a doctor can be successful. Not to mention the rest of the world.
In He Xi's view, what the Ming Dynasty needs most is not so many brilliant doctors, but ordinary doctors all over the world.
"And I think the Imperial Hospital should also undertake some research functions." He Xi said: "Some problems encountered by the imperial court should be studied by the medical school. There are many that I can think of. The first golden wound is that your Majesty has been on the battlefield. , knowing that many soldiers did not die on the battlefield. Instead, they died after being injured and not receiving medical treatment, or receiving improper medical treatment."
"Then, is there a simple and easy-to-learn method for treating gold wounds? Get some Chinese patent medicines so that the soldiers can handle them themselves after getting off the battlefield. Is there any way to reduce the mortality rate after injuries?"
"There are also smallpox, and diseases circulating in various places. What are the causes of these highly contagious diseases? Can this infection be blocked? Even if it cannot be cured, it can save many lives."
"There has not yet been a campaign in the south. The soldiers who died in the Ming Dynasty on the battlefield are far less than those who died from epidemics. This battle in Yunnan shows this. So is there really no way to solve these epidemics?"
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly spoke and said, "Do you think these can be solved?"
The prince may not understand why Zhu Yuanzhang asked this, but He Xi understood it as soon as he heard it. What Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to ask was not a literal question, but asked He Xi whether these problems will be solved after six hundred years?
He Xi thought for a while and then said: "Yes. I thought these can all be solved. Maybe it can't be solved now, and it won't be solved in a few decades. But a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and our current efforts are to accumulate capital for future generations. Let future generations definitely be able to solve it based on my research."
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said, "I really wish I couldn't see that day."
The prince was confused and thought to himself: "What's going on? I admit that what He Xi said makes sense, but some of the things that follow are almost absurd. But why did my father believe it?" If it were an anime now, in the eyes of the prince , there should be little stars that are constantly rotating. yellow.
He Xi said: "Your Majesty, the sooner you do it, the sooner you will see it."
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "This matter will be left to you. You go and work with Dai Shenyi to prepare a charter and submit it in the name of Dai Yuanli."
He Xi said: "I understand."
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Also, my birthday has passed and the kings are leaving the capital. Please go and see me off when you have time."
Zhu Yuanzhang's fifty-fifth birthday was preceded by thunder and rain, which summoned all the kings back. Everyone in the court thought it would be a grand event, but who knew that before her birthday, Empress Ma suddenly fell ill, and all celebrations were cancelled. Although Empress Ma had turned the corner, she was already recovering from her illness, and would even be recuperating for a while.
It's not that no one proposed a grand celebration, but Zhu Yuanzhang rejected it.
So, a family dinner was just held that day. Then it was over.
After the birthday banquet, the kings were ready to leave, and the time was only in early October. After all, most of the kings are in the north. If they stay any longer, it will only get colder and colder, and the road will become increasingly difficult.
In fact, as far as He Xi himself was concerned, he didn't really want to see the kings.
Although, the new regulations have not yet been implemented. It was only spread among the princes and kings. But there is no airtight wall in this world. Especially in this kind of policy related to the imperial court's plans. Even before officially withdrawing, there was already a storm in the city.
You know everything you need to know. unknown. It is estimated that we will only know when the implementation actually starts in the future.
He Xi's reputation has also become polarizing.
Many civil servants felt that He Xi had done a good job. Even Liu Sanwu, who was far away in Jiangxi, rarely said a few good words about He Xi when discussing government affairs with his disciples.
the reason is simple. Nowadays, He Xi is not the only one who knows the disadvantages of feudalism. Many people know it, and many people advise it. It's just that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't listen.
The trend of cutting down vassals was not unique to Emperor Jianwen's accession to the throne. It can be said that after Zhu Yuanzhang established the vassal state, there was already a trend of reducing the vassal state, because most literati and officials felt that there was something wrong with this national policy. This is an overall attitude, not an individual's attitude.
And Liu Sanwu is the most orthodox. Historically, it was Liu Sanwu who advocated the establishment of a grandson after the death of the prince. Today's orthodoxy is the imperial court.
Therefore, Liu Sanwu naturally praised He Xi. He had some academic differences, so he should attack them by beating the drum. He is truly a scholar. However, underestimate Liu Sanwu’s comments. After these words, the relationship between He Xi and Wen Chen eased.
This sentence actually means that although He Xi is a bastard. But he’s also our bastard. He Xi was officially included as a member of Shilin.
But for many things, there are pros and cons, and there are positive impacts and negative impacts.
The first person to be negatively affected was not He Xi, but Princess Anqing.
If you are dissatisfied, you will not show it easily. After all, it was Zhu Yuanzhang, not He Xi, who really set the tone. Zhu Yuanzhang was still here, so they didn't dare to make mistakes. However, many women cannot hold their breath. Moreover, the yin and yang between women is not easy to control.
Originally, this time when the kings returned to Beijing, it was also a good time for internal communication within the royal family.
There were constant banquets between each other. Princess Anqing went to the banquet happily at first, but after a few times, she simply stopped going. When He Xi asked why, Princess Anqing didn't say anything. But how could He Xi not guess it.
But what can He Xi do?
For a mere problem between women, I refuted it. Or fight with their husbands, the King of Qin, the King of Jin, etc. Not to mention, whether He Xi's current power can suppress the prince, even if he can, it would be too shameful.
Instead, it reflects He Xi's political immaturity.
This is also the reason why Princess Anqing stayed with Queen Ma to serve her.
Of course, not everyone is unkind to Princess Anqing. The prince is very kind to Princess Anqing. However, because of Zhu Xiongying's incident, Princess Anqing had objections to Crown Princess Lu. The two sides can't play together. The other is King Yan. Princess Yan Xu Miaoyun is not an ordinary person. She may not be satisfied with the new charter, but she also knows that important matters in the court cannot be decided by one person. She also knows that Princess Anqing is His Majesty’s beloved daughter and the little sister cherished by King Yan. . If you do it today, you will lose the dignity of King Yan. Therefore, he was very considerate of Princess Anqing.
Because of this, He Xi did not want to interact with the kings too much. After all, this is what Zhu Yuanzhang meant.
But I never expected that there would be another change on Zhu Yuanzhang's side.
In fact, it is not a change, but a contradiction in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.
From the perspective of power checks and balances, He Xi, who holds power at the center in the future, has a good relationship with the kings, which is not what he expected. But at the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang hoped that the next generation of the Zhu family would be harmonious and beautiful. Instead of making it look like it is now.
There is a state of struggle without defeat.
This is also Zhu Yuanzhang, who is cruel to everyone, but becomes naive when it comes to his wife and children.
How can this be done?
