Zhao Ji took the pharmacopoeia that had just been drafted and read it carefully.

The purpose, style, and structure of a classic, as well as some places that need special explanation, must be expounded in it.

Although he has a prejudice against Han Gang, Zhao Ji also knows that the way of nature he advocates has great value, and he listens to Su Song's explanation while reading it carefully.

"Medicine, curing herbs. Sound from the music, cut with a spoon. It is the general name of the herb that cures diseases, and it is the pharmacopoeia number of materia medica. ”

Zhao Ji looked down and said casually: "Su Qing also interprets the words?" ”

Su Song took a deep breath, gathered his chaotic thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "The minister doesn't dare to claim to be able to do this." I don't know the source, how to solve the word? Just as drugs cannot be classified without tracing their origins. ”

Zhao Ji raised his eyes and stared at Su Song deeply, "Su Qing is commenting on "Words and Words"? ”

Wang Anshi's "Words and Words" only follows the regular script as the solution, but he doesn't know the sage's writings, and uses a big seal. As for before the big seal, there are more ancient characters created by Cangjie. This can be described as a sword in the boat. ”

The words in front of him were still unbearable, but in a blink of an eye, Su Song was defeated. Zhao Ji put down the notebook: "Could it be that Su Qing, you have found the source of the text." Is it the word of Cangjie? Or is it the word of Ying Boyi? Or is it the word of Taishi? ”

The voice of the Son of Heaven was cold, and Su Song shook his head: "Things from four or five thousand years ago...... However, I did find some physical objects earlier than Zhou Ding, and I was also blessed by His Majesty. ”

……………………

Su Song went to the Chongzheng Hall to give a lecture to the Son of Heaven, while Han Gang came to the Political Affairs Hall to meet Wang Qi for the affairs of the Ministry of Health. Two days later, the two hospitals in the capital will be officially opened, and many procedures must be walked through the government hall.

It was not only Wang Qi who greeted Han Gang, Cai really didn't know if it was a coincidence or intention, but he was also present. There are also a few officials under the jurisdiction of Zhongshu, waiting for the assignment by the side.

"On the one hand, we have to compile the "Compendium of Materia Medica", and on the other hand, we will also take care of the Taichang Temple, the Department of Health and Welfare and the Taiyi Bureau. The hospital has been built and the victims have been treated, and Yukun has worked hard in the past month. ”

Wang Qi has a good relationship with Han Gang, and after welcoming Han Gang in, he said good things with a smile.

Cai Qu also echoed on the side: "Yukun is a multi-tasker, which is indeed hard. However, those who are capable work harder, and in terms of talent and knowledge, there are few people in the DPRK who can compare with Yukun. ”

Han Gang owes himself: "Hard work is not hard, saving the victims is an internal matter in the department, and there is a law to follow." The "Compendium of Materia Medica" is still sorting out medicinal materials at the moment, except for one classification and exception, there are not many that need to be done by Han Gang. I have time to sit down and read. ”

"Oh, what book has Yukun been reading lately?" Wang Qi asked casually.

"Words Say."

As soon as Han Gang's words came out, Wang Qi and Cai Cheng looked at each other and smiled, and they really refused to do things in peace. This time, it's time to listen to Han Gang's high arguments.

Cai Cheng looked very curious: ""The Words are sent by Wang Jiefu Yue, are you going to find something wrong in it?" ”

"Faulty?" Han Gang smiled, "It's wrong from the root, how to pick?" Cangjie made words, ghosts and gods cried at night, since then the ancient people no longer need to knot ropes to remember, and there are words to inherit. From the stone drum inscription, the Zhou inscription and the golden inscription on the Zhou Ding, it can be known that the text changed in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it was a big seal. To the unification of Qin, it is a change, and it is for Li Si Xiaoseal. When the Han Dynasty changed again, Lishu became the mainstream. As for the regular script commonly used today, it began in the late Han Dynasty and was only popular in the Western Jin Dynasty. The evolution of fonts, like the birth of plants and trees, is gradual. Therefore, to solve the word, it is necessary to trace back to the source, and it is not appropriate to use the present word to discuss it. ”

Han Gang's voice was loud, "Why did Xu Shuzhong [Xu Shen] enter the text into the book, isn't it just to return to the source?" If you don't look for the original meaning from the ancient sages when they created words, a "Word Saying" is just a text that carves a boat to seek a sword. The ship has traveled hundreds of miles, how can I point to the scar marks on the boat and say that my sword is in the water below? Thousands of years have passed! Thousands of years ago, the characters created by Cangjie were similar to the golden script, or the stone drum script, or the tadpole script. What's more, is there a different style of writing? You must understand this matter before you can decipher the words. ”

"Could it be that Yukun, you found Cangjie's physical object?" Cai asked pretending to be surprised, but his face was full of disbelief.

……………………

Su Song didn't take Zhao Ji's faint anger to heart: "I don't know what a keel is under Your Majesty?" ”

"Keel?" Zhao Ji was puzzled for a while, he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Su Song's gourd, and he didn't bother to do anything about the bottom beam of the ship. Song Yongchen, who was accompanying him, whispered two words in his ear, which made Zhao Ji react immediately: "Su Song, are you talking about the dragon bone on "Materia Medica"? ”

Su Song nodded: "Your Majesty, this discovery is from the keel." ”

…………………………

"Keel?" Wang Qi didn't know why Han Gang wanted to mention this medicinal material. However, Wang Jue, who is nicknamed the precious medicine of Zhibaodan, does have a little understanding of medical books, "The dragon bone is the main henchman and ghost, the essence is old and charming, coughing up, leaking, pus and blood, and the woman leaks ......"

The Song people have a saying that if you are not a good person, you are a good doctor, and the scholars and doctors know more about medical skills than one another. Of the five or six people present in the main hall of the political affairs hall, everyone had read through the "Shennong Materia Medica".

Here, Wang Qi just finished reciting the medicine, and Cai did go on to carry the origin: "The keel is born in the Jin land, the valley is yin, and the water passes through, it is the dragon's dead bones, the green and white are good, and they are picked in December, or no time, the keel is afraid of dry paint, Shu pepper, and Li Shi." The dragon's tooth is cold, cures epilepsy, and takes light for a long time. ”

Han Gang laughed: "It seems that Xianggong and Politics are more suitable than Han Gang to edit the "Compendium of Materia Medica". ”

"Speaking of medical books in front of Yukun, that's a laughing Fang family." Wang Jue shook his head, not joking, "Yukun, what do you mean by the keel?" ”

Han Gang smiled, and said: "The keel is born in the east of the river, hidden under the valley stream. Production is scarce. Therefore, most of the keels used in the world are dug out of the ground at will, and there are very few treasures in Hedong. Recently, Han Gang compiled the "Compendium of Materia Medica", to examine the medicinal materials, and there are also a few prescriptions that need to use keels, so people have collected a batch from the pharmacy in the city to ......"

……………………

"The keels mentioned in the "Materia Medica" of the past dynasties are all mistaken for the bones of dead dragons, but they are actually the bones of beasts, which are fossilized after being buried in the soil for many years. The body of the dragon resembles a snake, with four legs and five claws, and the keel, waist ribs and even leg bones are dug out, and after being spliced together, the big one resembles a rhino elephant, and the small one also resembles a beast, not a dragon shape. ”

Su Song seemed to be off topic, and Zhao Ji listened patiently to him.

"However, there is no need to worry about the wrong name of the medicine, as long as it has an effect, it can be used in medicine. If today's keel is genuine Hedong, a dose will cost two or three hundred Wen, so in the prescriptions in Tokyo City, there are many keels from other places to pretend to be Hedong. The effect is not too bad. The day before yesterday, the editing bureau searched for medicinal materials all over the world, and sent a message to ask the keels in each pharmacy to find a few samples to combine the medicine according to the different origins......"

Su Song paused for a moment, and saw that although Zhao Ji was frowning, he still listened attentively, and continued with peace of mind, "But the minister and Han Gang sent people to find keels from different places, most of them are similar to Hedong, but there is only one place where the keels are not right.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Ji was a little impatient, "Could it be that there are words on the keel?" ”

"It is true that there are words, and the keels there are different in texture and type. It is not a rhino species, but the carapace of a turtle and turtle, and the shoulder blades of a cow. ”

……………………

"Turtle shell, cow bone?" When Wang Qi and Cai did hear this, they had already faintly grasped a clue.

Han Gang smiled: "Yin people are still ghosts and gods, heavy divination, every time you want to fight, you can't win unless you want to fight." Dare to ask the prime minister and participate in politics, how did the Yin people divination? ”

"It seems to be taking turtle shells or cow bones and roasting them on a fire to see the cracks. The divination, the burning turtle is also, the shape of the moxibustion turtle, a turtle is said to be the vertical and horizontal of the elephant turtle. This is the explanation in "Shuo Wen Jie Zi", Wang Qi is not slightly inferior to others in terms of talent and learning, but he memorized it in one bite.

'There are four ways of sages: those who speak are still their words, those who move are still their changes, those who make instruments are still their images, and those who diviner are still occupied. Xia Yi said "Lianshan", and Yin Yi said "Returning to Tibet". Wen Wangyan's gossip and "Zhou Yi", although there are elements of self-emergence, it is impossible to be completely different from "Lianshan" and "Returning to Tibet". The divination method of the Yin people must be in "Returning to Tibet". Han Gang asked leisurely, "Dare to ask the prime minister and participate in politics, after divination, how did the Yin people do?" ”

……………………

"Engraved on it to remember...... Zhao Xuan stood still, pointing at Su Song, his lips trembling. Difficult...... Is it ......?"

"Your Majesty, do you know where the pile of keels came from?" Finally solved the mystery, Su Song asked Zhao Ji like a real teacher.

"It's not Hedong ......" Zhao Ji's voice was dry, and his intentions for Su Song and Han Gang behind him were already clear, "Is it Bo Yin, or is it another place for merchants to build a capital?" ”

Zhao Ji's face was gloomy and blue, and in order to fight right and wrong, he actually dug up the business capital? He didn't doubt that Han Gang would cheat, but equally, he wouldn't believe that things were really as coincidental as Su Song said.

Su Song didn't care about the attitude of the Son of Heaven, and replied very calmly: "In Xiangzhou, Anyang." ”

……………………

"Xiangzhou! Anyang! South of the Rushing Water! Han Gang's peaceful and cold voice echoed in the political hall, "...... Yinxu! ”

Cai Qu and Wang Qi both looked at Han Gang fixedly, their faces were cloudy, they didn't expect Han Gang to have this hand.

However, the authenticity is still unknown, who knows if Lu Dao was forged by Han Gang as evidence. There have been too many such examples in the past, not to mention anything else, the dispute between the modern and ancient texts of the "Book of Shang" is a dispute over which is true and which is false.

An official under the Zhongshu Sect who was accompanying him retorted: "Duanming, Pangeng moved five times, ruled in Boyin, and Yinxu should be in Bozhou." ”

"Zhang Han descended to Chu, and the alliance was in 'Huanshui South, Yin Ruins'."
