Chapter 4: The Female Emperor and the New Prince
There is a special temple in Kyoto that is the place where Tofukumon-in practices are practiced. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ The owner of the info believes in Buddhism, but he is the most special person among all believers - the emperor of Japan.
The emperor's skin was fair and his face was beautiful. Frankly speaking, this emperor does not have the appearance of a heavenly country. But anyone who has seen her will be attracted by another temperament, or rather, the innate aura of her identity at this time. Because, this is the emperor. Emperor Meisho of Japan.
That's right, it's hard for anyone to think of it. And today's emperor of the country has a female emperor.
The twenty-two-year-old Emperor Akimasa is clearly much more pitiful than his brilliant predecessors in the Nara era. Under the power of the powerful shogunate, Emperor Akisho Koko was more of a priestess of Jingu. Even, because he is a noble emperor, Xingzi can only go through this life alone for the rest of his life. Obviously, no one was able to marry her. No one has the ability to break through the power of the shogun, and no one has the status to marry a female emperor.
Of course, maybe it's lucky. In the year when he was eighteen years old, Heungko gave up the throne to his younger half-brother Shaoren. The current incumbent of Japan is Emperor Go-KΕmitsu.
With his younger brother in charge of all the storms, Emperor Akisho could spend his doomed lonely life in Ise Jingu quietly with his 5,000 kokumi a year.
"Your Majesty." A young maid bowed down, a little apprehensive: "Your Majesty, please go." β
The salutation is a little messy.
But with Xingzi's intelligence, he quickly understood who the maid was referring to.
"Brother...... Why are you calling me? "Emperor Meisho obviously did not expect that he would endure seventy-three years of loneliness in history. But now, after the gears of fate change on the land of Shenzhou, China, everything will be different. Including the loneliness of Emperor Meisho......
β¦β¦
In the Imperial Palace, Emperor Gomei, who was sitting on the ground, was very impatient.
Unlike Xingzi's quiet and loneliness, the Later Light Emperor Shaoren's personality is quite intense.
Shaoren was the fourth prince of Emperor Gomizuo, and his childhood masterpiece was Sugo Palace. He was made crown prince four years ago, and three years ago he abdicated from his sister Emperor Akimasa to become emperor.
Obviously, no more than the emperor in the impression of most people in later generations. The emperors of the Edo period were destined to be tragic.
Compared to Emperor Akisho, who was the daughter of the shogun, the misfortune of Emperor Shohito of Later Light may be even worse. Because, he lost the most important thing in a man's spirit: career. To put it simply, the emperor lost power.
This has been the case since the time of Shohito's father, Emperor Gomizuo.
In the fourth year of Kanei, the purple clothes incident occurred in Japan, and the imperial court allowed dozens of monks of Daitokuji Temple and Myoshinji Temple to wear purple clothes for the sake of finances without consulting the shogunate in advance. However, the shogunate's decree on the birth of monks, and the purple cloth edict of Kyoto's Daitokuji Temple and Myoshinji Temple were invalid.
Let the Japanese court lose face.
Two years later, Tokugawa Iemitsu actually let his nurse meet the emperor. Unlike in China, leaders are quite willing to meet with the people at the bottom, and prefer to show their benevolence in front of the people. But it is obviously different in Japan, where there is a strict hierarchy, and a person like Kasuga Bureau, who has no official position and no position, can only be regarded as a great shame by the emperor. I also felt that the shogunate did not take the emperor seriously at all.
In rebellion, Emperor Gomizuo, in order to cut off Tokugawa Iemitsu's intention to let his grandson inherit the throne, directly allowed Koko to ascend the throne as the next emperor. Eventually, after growing up in the palace, he succeeded him to the throne as emperor.
It can be said that the enthronement of the Su Goose Palace was humiliating from beginning to end.
Of course, Shaoren, who is only thirteen years old at the moment, does not understand all this.
He couldn't understand why his father, Emperor Gomizuo, who had abdicated for two terms, called him and his sister over. Even, Masahito is not willing to use his own name, but wants to use the name of Suegong.
Sure enough, when Heungzi saw that Su'e Palace was waved out by Masahito and left alone in the imperial palace, a strange feeling rose in his heart.
"I have received a very important message!" Masahito's eyes burned, which made Xingzi feel a little expectant and a little scared. This father is a little different today.
"Please show me my father." Xingzi does not have the majesty of the emperor, and in front of her father, she is as well-behaved as ever.
"Emperor Ming is coming to Japan for a state visit! They have completed a state visit to North Korea, which has changed the color of North Korea and ousted the ruler of power, Yi Kangzong. This is an opportunity! Koko, this is Amaterasu's benevolence to the emperor. For the sake of the Great Japanese Empire, for the sake of the Emperor...... I need you to make an effort, listen to my plan! After Masahito finished speaking, his eyes lit up.
Xingzi listened to Masahito tell the plan one by one in confusion, and finally his body stiffened, some resisting, and some of the same expectations.
β¦β¦
Capital.
After a hard day of military training, Shang Ji was given a special vacation, which allowed him to return to an almost forgotten state of identity - the Ryukyu royal brother.
Now the king of the Ryukyu Kingdom is Shangxian, but Shangxian is quite sad that he has not left a son and a half daughter in his life. This made the king of the Ryukyus gray in his hair.
But the country was unshakable, so Sanghyun actually became the son of the Ryukyu Kingdom. It's just that Shangxian has not yet completely lost the opportunity to have children, and no one has touched the mold.
Shang Zhen didn't want to think about why he was selected to be assigned to the Jingshi.
Some cronies felt that this was King Shangxian's power trick, and they were worried that the prince's brother would interfere with their own children. Of course, there are also people who feel that this is reuse, a cronie.
Shang Zhen understands that Brother Wang means the former.
The Ming Dynasty was a lifesaver for the Ryukyu Kingdom, and this was even more true in the face of the reality that the Japanese were pressing more and more tightly.
Today, an envoy from the Ryukyu Kingdom took a leave of absence for Sho-che at the Army School. The army schools, which rarely approve leave, have made an exception and have been unified. This has aroused the envy of many people.
Of course, soon the day of celebration will come to the whole world.
Time flies very quickly, and it is now November after the good news came in January that the queen mother was pregnant.
The weather suddenly turned cold, but the atmosphere in Beijing was very lively and cheerful.
"Mother and child are safe! Let's Daming, ushered in the first prince! "The streets and alleys were cheering and cheering.
Shang Zhen is also happy for Daming from the bottom of his heart. The eldest son is also the eldest son of His Majesty the Emperor. This can almost mean that the question of the heir of the Ming will be unquestionable.
In the face of brutal political struggle, this is almost the best start.
"Well, it's time to ...... I went to congratulate Your Majesty. And this also means that the last reason to restrain His Majesty to stay in Beijing is over. Shang Zhen understood very well that the reason why Zhu Cihong was willing to stay in Beijing for a few months was just to accompany the queen.
Then, all state affairs that have been suspended before will be opened at an accelerated pace!
The Ryukyu Kingdom has reached a fateful juncture.
β¦β¦
Jingshi morning.
In Kunning Palace, Kong Luoling drove away the Ming magnates who were watching the room: "What are you doing in a crowded manner, this major production event, the first and most important thing is to be clean and clean." One by one, which one does not carry thousands of germs on the body, if you want the queen to be fine, please quit. β
When several sisters of the queen's family heard this, they were naturally furious in their hearts.
But when Zhu Cihong heard this, he appreciated it in his heart, and he couldn't help but say directly on his face: "Doctor Kong is right. We are all anxious, we just quit, we quit. β
After that, Zhu Cihong took the lead out of the dormitory, which had already been arranged as a sterile ward.
When the rest of the people saw this, they swallowed all the words that came out of their mouths.
Kong Luoling gave Zhu Cihong a look gratefully, and continued to work. To deliver the queen's mother, Kong Luoling tried his best to find the most experienced doctor and stable woman in the country. But I still can't stand the pressure of this huge risk.
Production is a ghost gate, and treating the royal family is a dangerous ghost gate.
Look at it, that's naturally fine, maybe there will be some rewards. But if you see it bad, then it's a bad thing. If you can't keep it, you have to raid your house and destroy it. If you want to talk about medical trouble, although the emperors are not extortion. However, it is easy for patients to sign off on to doctors. Therefore, the hospital is full of peaceful doctors. Take some mediocre prescriptions that can't be cured and can't be cured.
That is, Zhu Cihong, a modern man from later generations, hated medical troubles, so he took advantage of the cool east wind of the Army Hospital and the Beijing Normal Maternal and Child Health Hospital to refresh this atmosphere.
Regarding the issue of cleaning, everyone present was at a loss.
People in these years don't know where the disease comes from.
Of course, Zhu Cihong is not very clear. But he has basic medical and health concepts, such as simple medical cleanliness principles. Zhu Cihong naturally does not spend all his energy on the hospital. But there is a promoter of Zhu Cihong's medical skills in the hospital, and obviously, Kong Luoling is this persistent lucky person.
She would not have imagined what kind of fame she would leave in the history of medicine.
Dystocia during childbirth is naturally a ghost gate. But this is clearly not the only one. Even more subtle and deadly is puerperal fever.
That is, the disease caused by the invasion of postpartum pathogenic bacteria, in later generations, this is a more serious disease that mothers are prone to during confinement, and it can be properly treated by general hospitals.
But in Daming, this thought is a nightmare for countless expectant mothers.
What is even more special is that puerperal fever is still a disease of wealth. Women who give birth in a hospital are susceptible to puerperal fever and die. So much so that in the 16th century, the royal families of Europe fell into panic and thought that God had punished the rich. Conversely, poor people who cannot afford to go to the hospital to give birth in their own homes rarely have puerperal fever infections. For example, two weeks after Edward's birth a hundred years ago, his mother Jane Seymour died of puerperal fever.
There is no doubt that today's Daming also has such concerns.
Before the maternal and child health hospital came out, there were many cases of puerperal fever in even the army hospital.
In this regard, countless medical officers are worried, for fear that the queen mother will also fall into this terrible disease.
With the deep affection of His Majesty the Emperor and his wife, maybe he will have to take a few heads to vent his anger.
Of course, with Zhu Cihong's attitude towards Kong Luoling now, not only the doctors' worries have been greatly reduced, but even the powerful people in Beijing have also recorded this impression. Even His Majesty the Emperor restrained himself from respecting physicians in front of medicine. If these people get a doctor to make trouble, they can obviously meet who His Majesty the Emperor will deal with when the time comes.
In short, there is no connivance with doctors.
To get back to the original topic, Kong Luoling deserves to be a new generation of excellent doctors in the army hospital. After he took office at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital, he quickly found the cause of puerperal fever.
He suspects that puerperal fever is caused by indirect contact with physicians, nurses and patients.
In fact, this is almost exactly the same as the discovery made by the Hungarian physician Iglaz Semyerves two hundred years later.
The difference is that the hospitals in Hungary are obviously much dirtier.
What makes people feel even more can't help but cry and laugh is that midwifery is a chore, so a considerable part of the operation is done by senior interns in their lifetimes. But the interns have a full schedule of daily tasks, and most of the time, they have just finished the autopsy before delivering the baby. There is no gap in between. So much so that the white coats stained with the blood and body fluids of the deceased on their bodies would not be returned.
Of course, when giving birth to a pregnant woman again, it will inevitably touch the white coat to wipe the dirt on your hands, and then continue to support the delivery.
Although, in the eyes of later generations, it is really terrifying that there is no cleaning and even clothes after the internship and dissection.
But if you stand up and say that these doctors don't have clean hands and will cause patients to the mother, then you will definitely cause the whole doctor to be separated.
Historically, both American physicians Oliver Holmes and Iglaz Semyrves, who also discovered the cause, have received a lot of ridicule for this.
To think that this is a mockery of the doctor, unrecognizable, unforgivable.
It wasn't until Semyrweiss thoroughly popularized preoperative cleaning that puerperal fever put an end to puerperal fever, a disease of wealth that had terrified the European upper class for hundreds of years in the nineteenth century.
Kunning Palace is a first-class palace in the Forbidden City.
But when it comes to the cleanliness of hospitals from a hygienic point of view, there is obviously a gap.
Especially with such a bunch of people crowded in the house, and even those who wanted to contact the mother, it made Kong Luoling even more afraid of puerperal fever.
In this way, it is no wonder that Kong Luoling is furious.
At this moment, in the Kunning Palace.
After being busy for a long time, after the tense and orderly production, a crisp baby cry sounded, which seemed so surprising outside the silent palace.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, mother and son are safe." Sweating profusely, Kong Luoling said, "It's time to enter." β
Zhu Cihong rushed into the house and watched the queen sweating profusely looking at the sterile incubator next to the bed, which was Zhu Cihong's child, and the two looked at each other, with tenderness in their eyes.
Zhu Cihong said softly: "It's hard work. β
The queen smiled slightly, and suddenly heard the sound of crackling firecrackers in the distance.
It's a celebratory firework.
