Hongwu Survival Guide

Chapter 250

Regarding the suggestion of setting up the Temple of Medical Sages, in fact, it is the same as the previous Guozixue and even schools of this era that must worship Confucius and Mencius.

In the document to Lao Zhu, there are many benefits to doing so.

The first advantage is to list a school line separately, to some extent, it is to list a family from the separate Confucius and Mencius system.

A hundred schools of thought contend.

With one more family, the imperial court will be one less prepositioned by traditional Confucianism.

Zhu Yuan also made a special note on this point, which is not enough for outsiders.Almost wrote 'burn after reading'.

It's really not suitable to be known.

The second benefit is to establish the belief of doctors, and to a certain extent, it also elevates the status of medicine. Although people in this era generally respect doctors, on the other hand, the status of doctors has not been very high.

Elevating the status of doctors, even if it is purely utilitarian, being a doctor can make people face, which can also make more people willing to practice medicine.

Finally, it's the 'anatomy' that comes into play.

Zhu Yuan believes that Chinese history has thousands of years, even if it is not made public, there must be many doctors who have done certain things.

For example, Hua Tuo.

Hua Tuo was later called a "surgical master". If he had not done certain things and did not have a detailed understanding of the human body, it would be too unreliable to do something like surgery.

However, it is only because in this age when the dead are the most important, some things are too deviant that they can only touch them quietly.

The establishment of the medical temple still needs to indirectly justify and rationalize things like anatomy, including other medical research in the future.

no way.

Chinese people like to pay attention to a good name.

So, what's the right way?
Shout out to the sages!
Just like when the ancient army went out to fight, there were often grand sacrificial ceremonies, that is, two words that many people heard very familiar: sacrificial flags.

This is not the kind that often appears in TV dramas later, when someone in the army makes a mistake and is dragged by the coach to behead his head and sacrifice the flag.

Before the expedition, it is very important to pay homage to the god of the flag.

Or, another example.

Some infrastructure projects hundreds of years later, such as bridge repairs and digging holes, require some sacrifices before the project starts. Some people may think that this is superstition. However, if you don’t do it, many workers will not start working.

because of fear.

The same is true for the Temple of Medical Virtue this time.

Zhu Yuan's idea, don't you have obstacles in your heart, feel that it is too deviant?

Then, set up the medical sage temple, and before starting certain things, hold a grand memorial ceremony. Everyone pays homage to Bian Que, Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing, etc., so that the sages can bless themselves.

At the same time, it is equivalent to gaining a legitimacy.

I have told the sages of doctors and sages, and the sages also agreed, and it is very legitimate to do it.

In the study of the East Pavilion.

After reading Zhu Yuan's suggestion, Lao Zhu just thought of the sentence in "A Dream of Red Mansions" again, that the heart is more open than the dry, and the disease is like Xizi's three points.

Well.

This child, it would be great if the last half of the sentence was wrong!
In all fairness, Lao Zhu is in favor of conducting medical research through dissection, but in his heart, occasionally thinking about these things is also somewhat obstructive.

At the moment, seeing Zhu Yuan's suggestion, and thinking about it again, I suddenly felt...

What a great idea!

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu put down the document, nodded his head and looked at the opposite side: "Okay, good way, that's it, Yuan'er, this...do you have an idea on which sage of the medical family should be honored?"

Zhu Yuan smiled back and asked: "My ancestor, do you know who the ancestor of the medical family is?"

Old Zhu thought for a while, and then he had a flash of inspiration: "Then... that, "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic"!"

Zhu Yuan nodded: "That's right, "The Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine", um...it should be the person who wrote the Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine, although there is some controversy about whether the "Huangdi's Canon of Internal Medicine" is written by the Yellow Emperor himself, but since it has been like this for thousands of years If it is passed down, we will treat it as him, after all, the weight of the Yellow Emperor is heavy enough."

Old Zhu was a little excited at first, but when he heard the end, he hesitated: "This...is it too heavy to list the Yellow Emperor as the ancestor of the medical family? The Yellow Emperor, after all, is the ancestor of our entire China?"

"Obviously, when you say that, my ancestor, you still don't think highly of medicine," Zhu Yuan said with a smile: "That's why I subconsciously feel that doctors are not worthy to recognize the Yellow Emperor as an ancestor. But I think this is the key, ancestor, the Yellow Emperor There is no outsider here, let's put it bluntly, he is heavier than Confucius, we list him as the ancestor of the medical family, so that medicine can really become its own family."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he immediately lost his temper. After thinking about it for a while, he nodded and said, "That's it."

The grandfather and grandson discussed the details again, and Lao Zhu summoned his courtiers to summon Sun Shouzhen and others to discuss in detail.

Zhu Yuan didn't intend to stay and discuss it in detail. He didn't have the energy, and Lao Zhu didn't force it. After leaving, he remembered the past and said, "My ancestor, can I take back the memorial to impeach me?"

Lao Zhu rummaged around subconsciously, and asked, "Why do you want this?"

Zhu Yuan said: "My ancestors are magnanimous and don't care about these small things, but I still want to be held accountable. It's a way to establish a family tradition, so that the people below don't go too far and can't clean up in the future."

Lao Zhu found the impeachment memorial of Cui Bingtai, the supervisory censor, and handed it over, while telling him: "You have a lot of things on your mind, but don't worry too much."

Zhu Yuan put the memorial into his satchel, but shook his head, thought for a while, and said solemnly: "My ancestor, perhaps, from the knife that I brought to Mingzhou, you should have seen that I am not too hard-hearted. Even if you punish the people around you, if it is not a big mistake, you will not be able to deal with it severely. In the future... if there is something that cannot be dealt with, Yuan'er will first ask Tuozu to play a bad face."

Lao Zhu nodded, and said with a smile: "I'm a harsh temper. The people below know it, and I know it myself. I can't change it, but you juniors, I hope I can be more lenient. You are so good... "He paused for a while, and added: "That is, in the future, you must never cut yourself with a knife like that in Mingzhou."

Zhu Yuan also nodded in agreement.

After saying a few more words, Zhu Yuan left the East Pavilion.

When he came to the sedan chair outside the East Pavilion, Zhu Yuan took out the memorial again before getting on the sedan chair, and handed it to Zhao Xu who came with him: "You don't have to go back with me, go to the city and let Lu Yu come to see me, Zhiyongzhai is closed today. Also...some of the housekeepers inside and outside of our house have come to see me."

Zhao Xu didn't know why, so he wanted to escort Zhu Yuan back first, but when he saw his lord's expression, he swallowed the words back, agreed, and left in a hurry.

Zhu Yuan returned to the mansion on Xuanwu Lake slowly in a sedan chair, but here he had received the news in advance, and the four women, Xieyi, Liu Bai, Qingniang and Luoshui, came out together.

Lifting the sedan chair curtain, Xieyi said softly: "Shopkeeper Lu, daddy and the others... are all here, my lord, why don't you go back to the back house to wash and rest?"

Zhu Yuan shook his head: "No, let's all go to the main hall of the Second Courtyard."

After speaking, he motioned for Xieyi to put down the car curtain again.

The sedan chair was lifted again, and came to the yard where guests are usually treated. As soon as Zhu Yuan stepped out of the sedan chair, he saw Lu Yu, the shopkeeper of Zhiyongzhai, kneeling on the corridor in the middle of the house, with Qiao Wang, Zhao Xu and others on both sides. A large group of people outside.

Zhu Yuan's order was not very clear, but he did not expect so many to come.

To make a rough distinction, most of Qiao Wang and others came to congratulate him on the third day of junior high school. In addition, there were also a group of stewards from Zhiyongzhai and Shangshanju's behind-the-scenes workshops.On the side of the inner house are He Xuan and the other four, as well as the mother-in-law and servant who are in charge of some more important daily affairs after Xie Yi.

Even Kim Sam-ho and Jong-ho, who had already moved out of the mansion, came.

The huge courtyard was crowded with 30 to [-] people at once.

Zhu Yuan knew that there were a lot of people relying on him now, but he didn't expect that there were so many people who only ordered him to 'take care of things'.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuan nodded to Jin Sanhu and Zhong He: "Today is a family matter, you two don't count, go back first."

Unexpectedly, when Zhu Yuan said this, instead of leaving, Jin Sanhu and Zhong He knelt down together. Jin Sanhu said: "The adults have the grace to recreate the two younger ones, even if the adults don't recognize the younger one as a servant. , the little ones should also recognize the big ones as masters.”

Zhu Yuan signaled Zhao Xu and others to help them up, still shaking his head: "Rules are rules. You are officials of Daming now. Even if you want to recognize the master, you can only be the ancestors in the palace. You have been impeached today. Don't let me I'll be impeached again, let's go..." Seeing that Jin Sanhu and Zhong He refused to get up, Zhu Yuan could only smile a little: "... What I'm going to talk about today is the rules, and you are broken again here. The rules make it impossible for me to continue. Besides, it’s not that I’m not close on weekdays. In the morning, I still thought about going to the new factory for the next two days, and the engraving workshop run by your brother Sanhu, but... I Said, the rules..."

The two reluctantly stood up, expressed their loyalty a few more words, and finally left.

After sending the two of them away, Zhu Yuan turned to Lu Yu who was kneeling on the ground: "Get up, go into the room and talk."

However, Lu Yu kowtowed in panic: "I'm so confused, I was impeached for a little profit, please punish me by the head of the family."

"Go into the house," Zhu Yuan said again, signaling the cold winter around him: "Or, do you want to punish me to freeze outside first?"

Said that he has already walked towards the warm hall where the earth dragon is burned every day.

This side has been arranged in advance, and the chairs on both sides have been removed. Obviously, next, except for Zhu Yuan, everyone has to stand.

Zhu Yuan sat down on the big chair in the main hall, and waited for a group of people to follow in, Lu Yu knelt down in the hall again, Qiao Wang, Zhao Xu, He Xuan and other men lined up on both sides, and the women avoided the screen on one side of the hall later.

After warming himself up with a sip of warm tea, Zhu Yuan saw that everyone was standing still, and then he said, "What about the matter, whether it is big or small. It is not big, because it is really not a big deal, so Zhi Yongzhai took the book It’s time to send the official’s hardcover version to the store for sale, but I was impeached, my ancestors didn’t mind, just asked me to make a formal document. However, it’s not too small.”

Having said that, Zhu Yuan glanced around: "In the blink of an eye, it's only been a year, and there are so many of you around me, and there are even more of you who can't be present today. We are also considered a big family. To use a folk saying, it is called a big family." A grasshopper on a rope, if it prospers, it will prosper, and if it is damaged, it will be ruined."

Everyone has a solemn expression.

Zhu Yuan took another sip of tea before continuing: "To put it bluntly, I am better than you, so I can be the head of this family. Besides, I see farther than you. You may be thinking, A person from the imperial court who is a first-class Pingzhang, a deputy prime minister, may be a county king in the future, what an umbrella, standing under this umbrella, the glory and wealth, why shouldn't it be yours?"

This time everyone finally opened their mouths, saying that they didn't dare.

Zhu Yuan raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, but nodded: "Actually, it's a matter of course. I'm in my current position. If someone says that I should eat chaff, I'll spit on him. Why? The same , you have followed me, if you still need your daily meals and linen sandals, then you will definitely curse in your heart, why?"

Raising his hand again to interrupt everyone's intention to speak, Zhu Yuan continued: "Water flows to low places, and people go to high places. This is the natural way. However, since we have reached the current position, we should think more about it." Think, can you go on forever? Or, you just want to have a good time, relying on my umbrella, bullying men and women, stealing and plundering, doing all kinds of evil, squandering this wealth in three to five years, as for three to five years Afterwards, whether they were dragged to beheaded, and the descendants died or were distributed, you don’t care, do you?”

Everyone quickly denied it.

Zhu Yuan said: "It must be denied. The problem is that how to say and how to do it are always two different things. I allow you to live a rich life, and even if I see that you are poor, I will take the initiative to give you some wealth." Make a living. But, what I hope is that you think about it in your daily life. Even if this wealth is dropped from the sky, you shouldn’t squander it. After all, three to five years is too short, life is so long, I enjoy it more, three to fifty Years, okay? Even, I will pass on my wealth to my descendants, 50 years, 100 years, or even 200 years, okay?"

"I have seen more things than you. You may think that 1000 years is too long, but, look at those history books, and even, look around us. There are countless families with thousands of years, and there are even around you. In the future, we will You can see more, ask more questions, and listen more, why do people's families last for thousands of years, while some people suddenly disappear after three to five years of wealth?"

"why?"

"Is there a possibility, besides luck, that other people know the truth of the long flow of water, and know that only by keeping the rules that should be followed, can the wealth be passed on for a longer time?"

Everyone nodded again.

Zhu Yuan felt a little tired, took another sip of tea, and looked at Lu Yu: "Although I didn't write down the words before, I said the rules, and you should know it, right?"

Lu Yu fell to the ground again, already crying: "Please punish the Patriarch?"

"You know, but you still commit the crime knowingly, probably because you think my umbrella is too big, and our shop is special. It's a matter of course, but, this is wrong. This kind of thing with the Qi family doesn't happen once or twice, nor does it happen every day or two. , I will also watch in the future, even if you have a bad family style, I will try my best to stand you up, so let’s not talk too much today,” Zhu Yuan finished speaking, and motioned to Zhao Xu: “Twenty whips, it hurts. , such a long memory, try not to get hurt."
