Han Dao world

Chapter 443 Mixed joys and sorrows

While making tea, Hua Tuo talked about his path of studying medicine.

He was originally a Confucian student, and he read Confucian classics. He was appreciated by Pei Xiang Xiapi Chen Gui, and he was named Xiaolian.After Taiwei Huang Wan heard about it, he also appointed him as an official.

But he rejected them all.

At that time, he was young and energetic, and he did not seek wealth and honor. He wanted to be a university student who learned about the past and the present.

These two people are related to the "Taiping Jing", so Hua Tuo had the opportunity to read the "Taiping Jing", and thus met Zhang Jiao.

Zhang Jiao was originally a Taoist. It is said that he studied under Zhang Ling in Bashu. No one can tell whether it is true or not.

Hua Tuo was not interested in the "Taiping Jing", thinking that it contained too much witchcraft and too little academics.Later, he treated people, and his medical achievements gradually surpassed his academic achievements. Although he won a lot of fame, he was also regarded as a cheap doctor because of this, which was very distressing.

He was reluctant to let him give up his medical skills.On the one hand, medical skills can save people, on the other hand, he has no family support, and medical skills are his ability to maintain his life.If he gave up his medical skills, he would not be able to find other means of making a living for the time being.

It happened that Zhao Qi was ill and asked him to treat him.He heard from Zhao Qi that the emperor issued an edict to rectify the name of medical skills, and renamed medical craftsmen as physicians and doctors. He felt that this was a choice with the best of both worlds. He could be an official and study his favorite medical skills, so he came here as soon as possible. up.

After getting rid of his concerns about reputation, he devoted himself to medical research. Not only did he see the medicine in the Northwest region, he also learned a lot of medicine from the Western Regions.

Hua Tuo took out a roll of paper, all of which were carefully drawn diagrams of the human body structure.

Hua Tuo took out a page and pushed it in front of Liu Xie.Liu Xie received it, but found that it was not an ordinary paper, but a piece of skin.

"This is a manuscript sent by Anthony to my minister. It is said that it was made by a famous doctor in a big western country. But this picture does not match what I saw. I don't know if he made a mistake or the Westerners are so long. Wait for the opportunity in the future. Only by dissecting two Westerners can I find out."

"Did you really dissect a living person?" Liu Xie asked while flipping through the pages.

"Yes." Hua Tuo was very calm. "The two Xianbei prisoners who were seriously injured couldn't be saved, and they didn't want to save them, so they had to be dissected."

Liu Xie's hand stopped for a moment, and then he regained his composure.

Xun Wenqian let out a long breath, and then said: "The internal organs of the Xianbei people are the same as our Han people?"

"According to what I have dissected, it should be the same. In fact, not only humans, but also pigs and sheep are roughly similar, and cattle are somewhat different. Therefore, I think that Westerners may be the same as cattle, but not the same as Han people."

Liu Xie glanced at Hua Tuo, intending to correct his mistake, but after thinking about it, he gave up again.

This fallacy is not uncommon in the development of medicine.Since Hua Tuo is determined to prove it, he will understand it sooner or later, so there is no rush.

The development of science is not afraid of mistakes, but afraid of not admitting mistakes.As long as you have a realistic attitude, even if you were wrong before, you will get back on track in the future.Only those who think they are the chosen one will never make mistakes, and those who make mistakes are others, will make mistakes again and again.

"This atlas of the imperial physician can be engraved and handed down." Liu Xie closed the atlas and nodded slightly. "Maybe like the Six Classics drawn up by Cai Bojie and others, a monument can be erected in Taixue for medical students all over the world to learn. Even if they don't study medicine, they can learn some common sense."

Hua Tuo froze for a moment, then became a little excited. "Your Majesty's words are true?"

"You are not joking." Liu Xie's tone was light, but his expression was serious.

Hua Tuo clapped the table and laughed. "The minister has to revise it carefully and add some more notes. These are for teaching purposes, but for practical use, without considering other people. Some places may not be understood by them."

Liu Xie said: "There is no rush to erect the stele, we can wait for you to revise it. What we need to do now is to find a way to get doctors from all counties and counties to have one, which will greatly help them improve their medical skills."

Xun Wenqian said: "Your Majesty, the solution is a good one, but it's too troublesome to copy, and I'm afraid it won't be a problem that can be solved in a day or two."

"Copying is troublesome, what about rubbing?"

"Rubbing is fast, but stele engraving is slow."

"You don't need to engrave a stele, but engrave it on a wooden or stone slab." Liu Xie gestured and briefly explained the process of engraving and printing.

Xun Wenqian had seen the stone stele of Luoyang Taixue, and after thinking about it for a while, she understood what Liu Xie meant, and it suddenly dawned on her. "Your Majesty, this is indeed a good way. It is much easier than engraving a stele, and it is more suitable for pictures than words."

Liu Xie smiled. "Since you think it's feasible, I'll leave this matter to you." Then, he handed the anatomy atlas in his hand to Xun Wenqian.

Xun Wenqian took a look and immediately turned her head.

Seeing these human structures, she thought of the bloody scene of Hua Tuo dissecting the sheep just now, and her chest twitched.She got up and walked out in a hurry, and just after getting out of the big tent, she vomited all over the floor.

Liu Xieyang raised his eyebrows, wanting to laugh but embarrassed.

Hua Tuo turned his head to look at Xun Wenqian's back with a happy expression on his face. "Your Majesty, you are very happy."

Liu Xie was taken aback. "really?"

"Nine times out of ten." Hua Tuo withdrew his gaze. "But Your Majesty doesn't have to be too happy, it should be a daughter."

"Can this be seen?"

"Nine times out of ten." Hua Tuo stroked his beard with the confidence of a professional.

-

Knowing that she was pregnant, but a girl, Xun Wenqian was both happy and disappointed.

Liu Xie persuaded her that although her daughter could not inherit the throne, she could become a princess in the future, and she would be rich and worry-free.

Besides, we are all young, you are only nineteen years old, there are still many opportunities in the future, and you will be able to have a son sooner or later.

Xun Wenqian leaned on the bed, thought for a long time, and suddenly said something. "Your Majesty, why can't daughters inherit the family business? I see that many women are better than men. For example, Ma Shilang and Han Shilang are much better than their elder brothers. There is also Master Yuan, who is smart and capable. She is Yuan Gonglu's daughter."

Liu Xie couldn't help laughing. "I'm very pleased that you can ask such a question."

Xun Wenqian blinked and said with a clever smile, "Does your majesty think this question makes sense?"

Liu Xie thought for a moment. "You are familiar with ancient books, but you may not know that before ancient times, women were probably the masters of the house."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Look at the word surname, it is born from a female, and many ancient surnames have female parts."

"Yes." Xun Wenqian suddenly realized. "Then why did you become the heir son instead of the heir daughter?"

"Think about it first, make up your mind, and let's discuss it later." Liu Xie will be tucked away by the horns. "Just like what Imperial Physician Hua said, don't be superstitious about the predecessors. The predecessors may be right or wrong. But there are always some reasons for getting to where we are today. Only when we know the reasons can we analyze and discuss them. It’s empty talk, it’s not going to solve real problems. Right?”

"Yeah." Xun Wenqian nodded repeatedly. "I'm pregnant, and I'm just idle, so I can do some research."

Liu Xie thought about it. "How about calling Yuan Quan to accompany you. I don't know about this woman's pregnancy."

Xun Wenqian shook her head. "There are too many affairs in the women's camp, and Yuan Quan can't get away. I'd better ask Mrs. Wei to accompany me, anyway, she is free."

After Liu Xie thought for a while, he agreed.
