Zhu Youzhen was not persuaded by Wu Yangxing's explanation, he still said firmly to the two of them: "I understand that you are indeed in difficulty, but I am not here to listen to you explain today why you can't train doctors in a short period of time.

What I wanted to know was what could be done to expand the number of students in the medical school and provide me with a steady stream of available staff.

I believe that both of you should know that the promotion of cowpox cultivation requires doctors, and that it will also take a large number of doctors to establish an extensive medical and epidemic prevention system to detect and stop the spread of these diseases to the surrounding areas. ”

Wu Yangxing thought for a while and then replied, "Your Majesty's idea of the Ming medical system has been carefully studied by the minister. His Majesty wants to set up a disease control center in the two capitals and thirteen provinces of Daming, and once the plague occurs, try to isolate it in the source area of the epidemic, and at the worst of all, isolate it in the province to avoid spreading to other parts of Daming.

He thought that if you just want to achieve disease control, you don't need to require all disease control personnel to be a qualified doctor. Only a part of the qualified doctors, paired with apprentices with general medical knowledge, can greatly reduce the need for qualified doctors.

In addition, he thought that it was best to distinguish between the training of doctors, since not everyone could accept the course of anatomy. If it is possible to distinguish between the two types of medical courses, internal medicine and surgery, then the number of people willing to enter medical school will increase significantly.

The minister also hopes to join the schistosomiasis prevention and control team in the south this time, and take advantage of this trip to the south, the minister can recruit some doctors with practical medical experience for His Majesty as teachers in medical school.

Moreover, the literary style in the south is prosperous, not only there are many readers, but even ordinary people rarely know how to read. If a group of cadets can be recruited in the south, it should be able to alleviate His Majesty's urgent need for doctors. ”

Zhu Youzhen only thought about it for a moment, and nodded and said: "Okay, I agree that you will join the group going south, and in addition to recruiting people in the south, you can also set up a branch of a medical school in the south, and the address can be located in the Songjiang area."

In addition, since the shortage of qualified doctors cannot be met for the time being, I hope that the medical school will organize personnel to compile a medical manual for common diseases and common Chinese herbal medicines.

I hope that from the second half of the year, some literate farmers will be sent to the medical school for training, and after completing the training, they will be able to work as non-stop medical workers in the village. ”

Wu Yangxing was taken aback for a moment, "Your Majesty, most of the people trained in this way are quacks, and they are very likely to cause misdiagnosis, which will lead to the aggravation of the patient's condition..."

Zhu Youzhen interrupted him and said, "Even if it's you, when treating patients, how many people out of ten people can be cured?" ”

Wu Yangxing replied honestly: "Back to Your Majesty, there are only 5 or 6 people." ”

Zhu Youzhen said helplessly: "Yes, 7 or 8 people can live out of ten people, which is already the level of a national player."

But how many doctors can I really call a national hand? Even in the hospital, there are many people who are indiscriminate.

Most of the people who can afford to get sick in the Ming Dynasty live in the city. How many of those farmers living in the countryside go to the doctor when they get sick?

When they have a minor illness, they just resist it, and when it comes to life and death, how can one or two doses of medicine solve it.

The problem that my farmers in the Ming Dynasty are worried about is not the question of whether there is a mistake or not a diagnosis, but the question of whether there is a treatment. Even if one or two patients are misdiagnosed, for most people, it's worth it.

In addition, the quality of these rural medical workers depends on the universality and reliability of the medical manual edited by the medical school, as long as you edit the manual in a simple and understandable manner. I believe that they can alleviate the suffering of some people. ”

Wu Yangxing was silent for a while, then stood up and bowed to Chongzhen and said, "The minister will definitely complete His Majesty's request and edit out a simple and easy-to-understand medical manual..."

When he walked out of the elephant room, Zhu Youzhen felt greatly relieved, although he didn't remember the disaster at the end of the Ming Dynasty very clearly, but he still had an impression of the outbreak of the plague in the north when the Ming Dynasty died.

He didn't dare to think about eradicating the plague or anything, but he felt that he had some hope of being able to detect the plague in time and limit the epidemic to one area.

After returning to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youzhen began to read the recitals sent by Wang Chengen and Lu Qi, and Wang Chengen deliberately took out a recital separately and put it in front of the emperor.

Zhu Youzhen picked up the piece and asked casually: "Whose piece is this, worthy of your attention?" ”

Wang Chengen bowed down and said to the emperor with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, King Fu has agreed to His Majesty's conditions, and this is the piece that King Fu sent someone to send today." ”

Zhu Youzhen immediately became interested, he immediately opened the chapter and flipped through it, skipping a large paragraph of the previous article about filial piety, in the last paragraph, King Fu handed over half of the land, as well as a large amount of silver taels and grain, in exchange for the request to enter Beijing to serve his mother.

Looking at the smile on the emperor's face, Wang Chengen suddenly said boldly: "Your Majesty, since King Fu is willing to pay for these fields and property, should you let the palace send someone to Luoyang to receive it, and take King Fu back to the capital by the way?" ”

Zhu Youzhen put down the concerto, stretched his waist and said: "It's not in a hurry, now public opinion in the capital is still concerned about the results of the scientific examination." Publishing this piece out now will not cause much reaction, but it may be possible to startle the snake and let those Donglin Party contacts stop this matter.

Besides, if this was done easily, Uncle Fu Wang and Emperor Zheng's ancestral concubine would not only not be grateful to me, but would feel sorry for the money they gave me.

Besides, the 10,000 dumps of land handed over by Uncle Fu Wang are all fields in Shandong and Huguang, and he still refuses to give me the best good land in Henan. 500,000 taels of silver, he also asked for half of the grain, 500,000 stone of unhulled wheat for 250,000 taels of silver.

I, Uncle Fu Wang, am really stingy, and I am regarded as a wronged man who doesn't understand the market. Let's dry him first.

These days, the discussion of filial piety in the Times, is there anything to say in the capital? ”

Wang Chengen was stunned for a moment, and then said a few words to the little eunuch outside the door, and soon a little eunuch entered the room with a stack of documents.

Wang Chengen and Lu Qi each took a stack of documents and flipped through them, and talked to each other a few more words, Wang Chengen's face changed slightly and said to the emperor.

"Back to Your Majesty, the news collected by the Daming Times and Jinyiwei from the capital, most of the public opinion in the capital is concerned about the performance of the provincial lifters in the examination, and the discussion of filial piety articles is only general.

However, Liu Zongzhou, Tao Shuangling, Huang Daozhou and other Donglin Party members have recently formed a witness society. He convened fellow Taoists to give lectures, saying that he would defend the learning of Confucius and Mencius and sages, and criticize the crooked ways of the Westerners.

Huang Daozhou seems to have mentioned in his lecture that the filial piety of the Son of Heaven is to maintain the ancestral system and eliminate crooked heresies. Guozijian was changed to Yenching University, Western missionaries were allowed to give lectures at the university, and university enrollment was not limited to scholars, etc., all of which deviated from the principle of Taizu's rule of the country.

Your Majesty, Huang Daozhou's attack on His Majesty's reputation in front of the public is really unsightly, and he should be severely punished to set an example. ”

After Zhu You listened to it, he was not angry, he thought for a long time in silence before he said: "Let the Daming Times ask these Donglin Party members to write a manuscript to comment on the text about filial piety, and then let Sun Zhiqi organize personnel to write an article to refute it."

The articles published in the newspapers on both sides should give the Donglin Party a slight advantage. The test will be over tomorrow, and I ask that the next few days be spent stirring up the topic, so that those who have nothing to do can join in the debate. ”

Wang Chengen suddenly said with some horror: "Your Majesty, isn't this playing with fire, if the Donglin Party people set off a material discussion, I am afraid that the new policy that Your Majesty has implemented with great difficulty will also be abandoned halfway." ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled and raised the piece in his hand and said, "If there is no letter from Uncle Fu Wang, of course I am playing with fire by doing this. But now?

Wang Banban, have you ever heard a folk saying, called: Yellow mud falls into the crotch of your pants, it's not but.

The Donglin Party members raised the banner of filial piety and accused me of not abiding by the ancestral system. The higher they stand now, the heavier they will fall when Uncle Fuwang's article comes out.

As long as the people of the world think that the Donglin Party criticizes me for not abiding by the ancestral system and is building momentum for Uncle Fu Wang, then what justice do they have?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, I also want to see how many officials in the DPRK and China really want to support me in implementing the new policy. Instead of being in the yin and yang, and always wanting to overturn the new deal.

In addition, he told Sun Zhiqi that when he organized people to write articles, he should tightly hold on to a filial piety character, and he could not let the Donglin Party people pull the topic too far. ”

Wang Chengen was dumbfounded, he never thought that the emperor would be able to return to Beijing with King Fu and take advantage of King Fu and the Donglin Party at the same time.

Seeing that Wang Chengen resignedly agreed, Zhu Youzhen continued: "Summoning Jiang Dejing for me tomorrow, and when will Feng Quan arrive in the capital?" ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly replied: "After Elder Feng Ge received the summons from His Majesty, he has already entered Beijing today, and he is waiting for His Majesty's summons." ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded and said, "Then let these two go to the Wuying Hall tomorrow to wait, and after I have a regular meeting with the General Staff, I will summon the two of them." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Chengen hurriedly bowed down and agreed.

Zhu Youzhen put King Fu's recital in the brocade box on the side of the bookcase, picked up the following document casually, and said casually: "Is there anything going on in the palace recently?" How are the cowpox planted by everyone in the palace? ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the palace has been calm recently, nothing has happened, the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace have basically been planted with cowpox, except for the guards stationed in the palace, one-third have not been vaccinated. ”
