Chapter 457: Treasure
In the summer of the ninth year of Wanli, the mast fluttered with a dragon flag on a yellow background, and the old Qianliu warship with 28 Zhenshuo general guns on the double-deck carried Chen Shigong, the first doctor in the Ming Dynasty to open his eyes to see bacteria, arrived at Tianjin Beiyang Port.
On that day, the Beiyang Banner Army, who was in charge of unloading the cargo, was very troubled, because this first-class doctor who was attached to the Beiyang Medical Academy refused to enter the military palace to rest, and he had to watch the Banner Army carry the 62 crate heavy utensils he was carrying from the ship at the dock and deliver them to the place before leaving.
Chen Shigong did not have so much luggage, of which 12 boxes belonged to the Dongyang Military Government, and for this year, the tax statements of the eight counties in Youjing, the status of officials, the specifications of railway construction, the status of mines, fisheries, forests, farmlands, and new precision maps and other official documents.
In addition, nine boxes are made of bacteria culture and microscope machines made by Changsheng.
The rest are all books, and more than half of them are translations of Western books obtained this year in the Library of the Oriental Military Office.
Among them, there are also several new textbooks from the Somuro University, mainly for Xu Wei's new compilation of paintings that integrate Western post-painting methods, shadows, light and other techniques; Zhu Zaiyu's music theory, as well as his mathematics textbooks compiled with Cheng Dawei.
The rest are all dictated by Chen Shigong, many medical skills compiled by his military medical team, and his team originally had six Taoist priests who were dismissed from the Jialonghu Dojo, and later the Taoist chief Cao Changqing was sent to England, and a general of the clan Fengguo who was slightly familiar with medical skills was added.
General Fengguo learned a piece of white drawing from Xu Wei at the Zongmu University, and he drew more than 160 illustrations of medical books.
All books are in double copies.
This is a treasure that was originally left in the Oriental Military Library.
Because Chen Shigong, the initiator, did not know how to make this treasure public, he followed Chen Mu's suggestion and first separated the two sets of manuscripts, one textbook for the Beiyang Military Academy, one for the Beiyang Medical Academy, and the remaining set for the Forbidden City.
The things in this set of books are too shocking, as the textbooks of the sect university, the architecture department, the water conservancy department, and the agriculture and animal husbandry department are okay, and there is almost no progress in these, just a summary of the experience of the predecessors; But music science? Zhu Zaiyu's conclusion is the latest, which is incompatible with the music theory of the Ming Dynasty, and may not be adopted.
The most difficult thing is his medical book, such as "The True Solution of Bones and Muscles", each of the more than 200 bones on the human body is introduced separately, including its appearance and use, and is accompanied by illustrations, on which the standard size and thickness of the size range are written.
Every muscle, every tendon and most of the blood vessels, even the thickness of the integument, the thickness of the oil, etc., have a comprehensive and clear introduction, what does this mean?
It shows that everyone who sees this book will immediately think of what the person who wrote the book did.
Of course, Chen Shigong didn't need to think about why the Dongyang Military Government sent him back, just as he had just taken the military medical staff and the flag army to settle things, Ye Mengxiong, an important minister of Beiyang, had already come with a telegram list.
"Don't stop Doctor Chen, there is a telegram from the Forbidden City, Your Majesty wants you to take Chen Shuai's reply and leave immediately, go to Tsinghua Garden quickly, travel all the way, and go to Zhang Ge Lao's rest later."
Ye Mengxiong said with a helpless expression, closed his eyes and sighed while raising his eyebrows, shook his head and said: "Pavilion Elder is waiting for you to wait hard, first ask Your Majesty to Zhishi, last month's handbook used the word beggar bones." ”
There was no such precedent for the imperial court.
It doesn't matter whether it is a cabinet elder, an important minister, or an ordinary official, or even a small person, as long as people do not break the law and do not commit adultery, where can the emperor himself put pressure on the family not to be treated?
No one could persuade this matter, and at first someone in the court spoke, saying that the emperor should not delay Zhang Gelao from seeing a doctor.
Isn't it human nature to cure a disease?
If it is said that the doctor invited is not proficient, then it is not, Zhang Ju is the famous doctor Zhao Yu invited from Xu Jiefu, like this, he even specially found two people who also suffered from hemorrhoids for several years, and treated them first, and now the root of the disease is gone, and they are very healthy.
"Beggy, beggar bones?"
This word is very serious in context, usually don't care about the ministers, ordinary ministers, usually in the prime of life and health, just say a request to the officer, just do it; Even if there is a slight illness, it is considered to say goodbye to the old man and return to his hometown, and see if the emperor is allowed or not.
For example, Ma Fang, this is not enough to find a posterior account for a long time when he is old, and the imperial court directly arranges for him to enter the Beiyang Medical Academy for recuperation, not to mention begging bones.
Begging bones, which are afraid of dying and not being able to bury them at home.
This word startled Chen Shigong and asked, "Is Elder Ge so sick?" It shouldn't be. ”
"It's fine, it's just an old disease, I've been eating Su Dongpo's Poria cakes, eating less meat and less oil, safe and sound; Until this year's Chinese New Year, there had been a war outside the Saiwai before, and the affairs of the court could not be interrupted, and no one dared to take it easy. ”
Ye Mengxiong said to Chen Shigong as he walked, looking at the crates that Chen Shigong brought back, and said: "After the winter, the soldiers outside the fortress have the winter armor personally supervised by His Majesty, and they can also sprinkle the sentry out of the snow for thirty or fifty miles, and it doesn't hurt to spend the night once in a while, but the northern captives rely on meat to carry the wind, and the heart of the imperial court is relaxed." ”
"People's hearts are used to being loose and easy to get sick, who doesn't eat some meat and oil during the New Year, and then drink some wine, it's really not a secret...... I'm going to visit Elder Ge, doctor, guess how Elder Ge describes his condition. ”
"Explode." Ye Mengxiong let out a long breath, with a look of empathy and fear, and said, "He said that it was like exploding, well, General Zhenshuo exploding the chamber." ”
"I wrote a letter to Your Majesty and used the topic to play, saying that the governance of this country is like a person curing a serious illness, and it cannot be delayed, and his disease is dragged out, and the root of the disease must be decisively removed."
"Your Majesty doesn't think so, Your Majesty thinks that there must be a perfect plan to think about it, and there must be no mistakes."
Ye Mengxiong said: "Whether it is for the country or for the elders, it has been delayed until now, half a year...... Ge Lao is getting sicker and sicker now. ”
Chen Shigong saw the complicated expression on Ye Mengxiong's face that flashed, and there was both emotion and a slight uncontrollable ridicule in his expression, and said, "I think most of them are angry with Your Majesty." ”
Originally, hemorrhoids on the buttocks were a matter that not many people knew, and he told the emperor that he was going to ask for half a month off to treat the disease, but the result was good, so he waited for a long time, and the emperor sent someone to condole, saying that he was not allowed, and Zhang Juzheng was not allowed to be treated.
"I think that what His Majesty said in this matter is extremely true, and this is mainly because of this coming back in the next time."
Chen Shigong checked that all the accompanying scrolls and utensils were in good condition, and the doctors and students brought the things to be presented to the emperor, and said goodbye to Ye Mengxiong, saying: "Chen Shuai ordered me to find sick people in Dadongyang for treatment, forty-six cases of people who are over forty years old and have been sick for more than five years, and they are treated by various means, such as surgery, hemorrhoids, fumigation, moxibustion, guidance, ironing, and even the ancient soldering iron method. ”
"Diet, moxibustion, guidance, ironing, fumigation, until the boat under the boat, still cannot be eradicated, but the symptoms are indeed reduced to varying degrees; Of the 22 patients who had hemorrhoids and had their excisions, four of them had more than serious injuries to their vitality, and six of the patients had lost their qi and blood after being cured, and they were too old to bear it. ”
