Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 498 Adding Building Blocks
Since we want to talk about the level of medical treatment in the Tang Dynasty, we have to talk about the so-called imperial medical office, where the top medical talents gathered from all over the country work here, and they are also called imperial physicians.Each of these doctors was promoted from the most powerful figures in the region.Moreover, the objects they serve every day are members of the royal family, which means that these people must be strong, otherwise, if they are not careful, they will be killed all over the house.

Each of these members can get the most complete medical classics from all over the country, and there is still a very peak competitive relationship among them, so the Imperial Medical Office is the highest medical level in the Tang Dynasty.

At this time, the Imperial Medical Office involved a wide variety of systems, some specialized in medical theory, some specialized in acupuncture, and some specialized in the structure of the human body, and some even studied witchcraft and mythological medical techniques.It can be said that all kinds of heaven and earth are all-encompassing, and Sun Simiao is one of the representative figures.

At least in Li Chengqian's view, the current medical level of the Tang Dynasty should be ahead of the world and few people can match it. Otherwise, why did the Japanese state repeatedly ask the emperor to allow their Tang envoys to study medicine in the Imperial Medical Office instead of staying in the Imperial College all day long? The old Confucian disciples are the ones who talk about every day.

But then again, medicine is not something that can be accomplished by being top-notch, and it needs to be popularized. After all, practicing medicine is for saving people, not for showing off, and Cangwen Academy has a place dedicated to training doctors. This is Sun Simiao. One of the conditions for taking refuge in the Eastern Palace.

With the successful experience of Cangwen Academy in training doctors, Li Shimin deliberately aimed to establish a large number of medical doctors in various places. The status of these medical doctors is about equal to that of the "Five Classics Doctors" established in the Han Dynasty, and even higher in some cases.Not only do they have a very high status, but they are also responsible for the management of medicine in the entire place.

In addition, there are medical students under these medical doctors, and there are many medical practitioners under the medical students. Generally speaking, medical doctors are responsible for the overall deployment and management of large-scale disease problems.The people who are really responsible for the medical management are those medical students. This is probably the earliest batch of barefoot doctors who need to walk around the streets.

Moreover, there are barefoot doctors like this and a large number of medical assistants who are in charge of supporting them, and they are deployed in various places. It can be said that the people at the bottom are not worried about the outbreak of the disease.

It can be seen from this that the development level of Datang should have been very high. After all, medicine is inferior to the needs of people's lives. Only when food and clothing are solved, can medical projects be implemented on this basis.

Dugu Rui's medical clinic is composed of a group of doctors of medicine, so this also makes him the only person in Chang'an City who has received Sun Simiao's eyes. Naturally, medicine is not a problem, which is why those dudes and literati were recruited.

East Palace-Mingde Hall, the people called here today are all doctors, whether they are official or not from the people, all the famous ones near Chang'an City have been invited here, not for anything else, just for next year's one. There is an exam, that is the medical department.

Whether it is a doctor or an official is a personal choice, but as long as an individual has his own thoughts, it would be difficult for them to have the same heart as Sun Simiao.

Therefore, Li Chengqian said that the emperor set up a medical department to be included in the imperial examination, and all doctors who passed the examination would be awarded grades, which solved the problem of unclear, embarrassing and embarrassing identities of everyone except doctors of medicine in the past. Admired by people, it has become an official system, more professional, and better managed.

According to the past practice, if a doctor wants to become an official and enter the official career, he has to go through fierce competition and strict assessment at the local level to become a doctor of medicine, and then he can become an imperial doctor after being brutally eliminated by the imperial medical office. Official career, people who may have passed such a test are undoubtedly rare, which undoubtedly discourages more young people.

In this era when the average person is only in their thirties, the lack of popularization of medical care is the main reason for the population fluctuation. We must know that people in their thirties are in their prime, and it is because of the torture of various diseases that they die early.This is undoubtedly a huge loss for the country and their own small family, so this status quo must be changed.

"Gu called you here today just for next year's spring. I believe you have already received the news, but if you are far away from the rivers and lakes, you are worried about the people. Please encourage your students to refer to it. You are all opening a museum and accepting disciples, aren't you?" Is it for hanging the pot to help the world?
Now, His Majesty has given God’s grace and specially added a medical department to the imperial examination, just for the well-being of all people in the world, and at the same time it coincides with the ideals of the great doctors of the world. This is the concern of the emperor for the people. "

"His Royal Highness, none of the past dynasties paid as much attention to doctors as the current court. This makes me feel very lucky when I feel the same kindness as doctors. Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed Confucianism, the way of medicine has gradually The land has been reduced to a small way, and people only care about Confucianism and Dharma, in order to enter and leave courts, so as to honor their ancestors, so it has become difficult to accept disciples and pass them on."

"Today, the imperial court can open such an opening for doctors in the official system, which can not only solve the worries of doctors today, but also encourage more people to participate. This is a great thing for my Chinese medical heritage. The old man agrees very much. Most of the students in the medical department of Cangwen Academy have already graduated, so the old man can help them prepare for the exam. "

Sun Simiao's prestige among the people is extremely high, even the current prime minister is far behind this old man, so Li Chengqian specially invited such a big entrustment today to let him speak from his own experience.Let these people understand that anyone who supports the decision of the imperial court will strongly support their medical clinics and cottages. Sun Simiao is the best example.

There is no way to do this, whether it is an imperial doctor or a doctor invited from the people, their apprenticeship is not as simple as preaching and learning, but more importantly for themselves, so there is no benefit, let them consciously let people out , that is basically impossible.

With Sun Simiao's successful case in front of him, why do people in the hall not believe it? Although Sun Simiao's current grade is not high, with his superb medical skills, even the current prime minister has to respect him three points Bar!If we can seize this opportunity and climb the high branch of the East Palace, wouldn't we be the next Sun Simiao?
Therefore, driven by the idea of ​​Wen Wu No. [-] and Wu Wu No. [-], voices of approval in Mingde Hall were heard endlessly, even the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Office were no exception. .
