The Ming Dynasty started with saving the eldest grandson

Chapter 142 Li Wenzhong was frightened and fell ill
Queen Ma's analysis amazed Chen Jingke.

It can be said that it goes straight to the core of the problem.

The key is her basis, many of which she has said before, which can be regarded as a model of practical learning and application.

As expected, he was one of the two most important advisers to Zhu Yuanzhang in starting his business.

Many people may wonder that Zhu Yuanzhang's most important counselor in establishing the Ming Dynasty should not be Liu Bowen.

As the saying goes, Zhuge Liang divides the world into three, and Liu Bowen dominates the country.

However, this is just a joke.

Liu Bowen did not join Zhu Yuanzhang's group until the 20th year of Zheng Zheng. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already established himself in Nanjing.

His arrival is the icing on the cake.

Therefore, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, in terms of meritorious deeds, he was not even rated as a marquis, but only a sincere uncle.

This is not to say that he is unimportant. Being rated as a count as a civil servant is enough to show that he has made great contributions.

But it's nowhere near as big as the joke says.

Zhu Yuanzhang's two most important advisers were Li Shanchang and Queen Ma.

Both of them joined him at the beginning of his business and assisted him wholeheartedly.

Help Zhu Yuanzhang make plans, win over soldiers, formulate rules and regulations, etc.

Empress Ma did not fight, grab, or take credit, but gave all the credit to Zhu Yuanzhang to help him establish his prestige.

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he retreated behind the scenes and helped Lao Zhu check for leaks and fill in the gaps.

It is precisely this kind of virtuous wife that Lao Zhu respects from the bottom of his heart.

It is precisely because of this that she can sit on the dragon throne and call Zhu Chongba, and Zhu Yuanzhang is very happy without feeling that he is overstepping.

The longer they were in contact, the more Chen Jingke respected her.

It may be controversial to judge the queen of the ages, but she must be in the top three, and no one will disagree.

Zhu Yuanzhang was also speechless by her words.

In fact, he understands the truth, but the influence of preconceptions is too great.

The ancient capital of thirteen dynasties gave birth to the four great empires of Qin, Han, Sui and Tang Dynasties, and it also has Tongguan natural danger.

He wanted to put the capital here so much that he subconsciously ignored many shortcomings.

Now, Queen Ma's words completely woke him up.

Chang'an is no longer the Chang'an it was a thousand years ago. Placing the capital here is squeezing the last bit of its potential.

Chang'an has insufficient potential and Peiping's economic conditions are too poor. Only Luoyang is the most suitable.

But he still did not make the decision easily. Moving the capital was a major matter and must be considered comprehensively.

He needs more detailed data.

If possible, he would even like to go there himself.

But as the emperor, he could not leave the capital easily, so he could only ask Zhu Biao to help him go and see it.

Thinking of this, he said to Chen Jingke:
"You did not disappoint us. Your ideas are indeed different from others and more comprehensive."

"However, moving the capital is of great importance, and we need to consider it carefully."

"If you find anything else, please tell me."

Chen Jingke had already guessed where he would choose, but he didn't say much, but said:
"Yes, if I have any new ideas, I will definitely tell His Majesty."

After chatting for a while, Chen Jingke and Zhu Xiongying left together.

After returning to his room, Chen Jingke began to pack his luggage.

Zhu Xiongying said reluctantly: "Hey, what will I do if you leave? It's so boring to be alone."

Chen Jingke smiled and said: "Aren't there the King of Shu, the King of Xiang, the Crown Prince of Jin, and the Crown Prince of Yan? If we can't leave the palace, there's Boss Xu."

Zhu Xiongying sighed and said: "It's different, it's different. Only by following you...well can you learn something."

Chen Jingke was very happy. More than a year of hard work had not been in vain.

So he joked: "Then why don't I go?"

Zhu Xiongying immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, dad's body is more important."

"Hey, it would be great if I could go with you."

Okay, Chen Jingke finally knew what this kid was thinking, and said simply:
"Don't even think about it. The prince and grandson are leaving the capital at the same time. Even if His Majesty agrees, the ministers will not agree."

"You, just stay in Yingtian."

Zhu Xiongying said frustratedly: "Can't you just let me fantasize for a while? Damn it."

Chen Jingke couldn't help laughing: "Okay, okay, just fantasize. I'm going to embrace the outside world."

Zhu Xiongying said bitterly: "When I become the emperor in the future, I will punish you by being grounded at home every day and not being able to go anywhere."

After packing his luggage, going home and talking to his parents, Chen Jingke boarded the ship to Shaanxi.

There was also a large group of civil and military personnel accompanying him, all of whom helped Zhu Biao share his work.

Zhu Xi also set out with him, but his destination was not Shaanxi.

Looking at his apprentice, Chen Jingke was very pleased:

"Your talent is indeed very high. In just one year, you have mastered some of the theoretical knowledge."

“What’s missing now is practical practice.”

"Work hard when you get to Taiyuan, and you will surpass me in surgery when you come back."

Zhu Rui said modestly: "It's all teachers who teach me well. Compared with you, I only learned a little bit."

"That means you have put your thoughts elsewhere, otherwise there would be no chance for me to chase you."

As a student, he naturally knew that his teacher's understanding of surgery was still theoretical.

The actual practice is not even as good as my own who only studied for a year.

However, he did not feel that he was great because of this, but admired Chen Jingke even more.

At only 14 years old, he has learned so much profound knowledge that he can be called an all-rounder.

Because there are so many things to worry about, I don’t have time to specialize in surgery.

Only then did he have the opportunity to transcend himself.

Now his pursuit is very high, he wants to be a medical saint like Zhang Zhongjing and Sun Simiao.

He was excited just thinking about being able to cure diseases and save people, and also achieve success and fame.

I am even more grateful from the bottom of my heart to Chen Jingke.

If Chen Jingke hadn't accepted him as his disciple and taught him such profound medical skills, I'm afraid he would still be wasting his life.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is still a curious and skillful prince, but in the eyes of his parents, he is a stupid person who cannot be cultivated.

It can be said that it was Chen Jingke who changed him and made him successful.

Feeling the respect from his disciples, Chen Jingke was very happy.

He is also extremely satisfied with this apprentice.

He is talented, patient, kind-hearted, and loves medicine. He is simply born for medicine.

I believe he can push Huaxia Medicine to a new level and fulfill his own unachievable dream.

The fleet went upstream, and Zhu Ju led his team to disembark at the border of Kaifeng and headed north to Taiyuan.

Chen Jingke continued upstream, entering the Weishui River at Tongguan and heading to Guanzhong.

It's just that the Weishui River is so rugged and difficult to navigate that it almost made Chen Jingke's stomach juices come out.

Sure enough, if you don't experience it yourself, you won't know why the ancients did many strange operations.

He had always been puzzled before. Why did the Guangtong Canal need to be dug during the Sui and Tang Dynasties when the Wei River was clearly connected to the Yellow River?

The two waterways are very close to each other and have duplicate functions. Isn't this a waste of manpower and material resources?
Now I finally know.

If we had relied on the Wei River for water transportation, millions of people in Guanzhong would have starved to death.

Unfortunately, Guangtong Canal is a man-made river with a gentle flow, which also means it is prone to siltation and requires regular maintenance.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Guangtong Canal had long been silted up.Now in and out of Guanzhong, one has to either take the land route or take the Weishui River.

It seriously hindered the communication between Shaanxi and the outside world and restricted the development of Guanzhong.

Therefore, we must find an opportunity to dig the Guangtong Canal again.

By then, even if Chang'an cannot restore its prosperity during the Han and Tang Dynasties, it will definitely usher in another spring.

All the way to Chang'an, Chen Jingke finally met Zhu Biao.

He couldn't believe his eyes. He was so haggard and had lost weight several times.

Zhu Biao was very happy to see him:
"Jing Ke, my body is so unsatisfactory, I have to trouble you to make a trip."

Chen Jingke sighed: "This is what I should do, but His Highness's situation is a bit beyond my expectation."

"In my impression, you should not be such a reckless person."

Zhu Biao glanced at the Wanmin Umbrella next to him and sighed:

"I feel guilty."

Chen Jingke said: "Then we should take care of ourselves, govern the country well, and don't let the past happen again."

"As the Crown Prince, I believe you understand this better than I do."

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "Everyone understands the truth, but how many people can control their emotions?"

Chen Jingke roughly understood Zhu Biao's state. He had realized where his problems were and tried to adjust.

But I have been trapped in emotions and cannot break free on my own.

This is when you need a psychiatrist.

It's a pity that Chen Jingke only studied psychology in general and did not study it in depth.

I can sense Zhu Biao's condition, but I don't know how to treat it.

However, the solution is not completely impossible. There is another way to remove the firepower:
"It's time for Your Highness to leave Shaanxi. It's difficult for you to get out of your emotions here."

"Get out of here, go outside, and you'll be back to normal in no time."

Zhu Biao nodded, shook his head and said, "I know, but I can't leave now."

"Only when I personally clean up the mess left by my second brother can I feel at ease."

"And I have something else to do here."

Chen Jingke knew that he was talking about moving the capital, but there were too many people here to discuss it in detail, so he said:
"So His Majesty sent many people to assist you. Then you can just leave the work to them."

"As for the other thing you mentioned, His Majesty also told me before coming here."

"Although he didn't say it explicitly, I could tell that he had changed his mind."

Zhu Biao was not surprised by this. Considering Chen Jingke's status in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, it would be strange if he didn't know about the capital move.

He was just a little surprised that Chen Jingke convinced his father so easily.

He knew very well how much Lao Zhu liked Chang'an.

In fact, he also likes it here.

However, the results of the preliminary inspection disappointed him. It was no longer suitable to continue to be the capital.

Next, he plans to conduct more detailed investigations and collect more data in order to convince his father.

Unexpectedly, Chen Jingke persuaded Lao Zhu with just his words without leaving home.

He was very curious about how Chen Jingke did it.

However, he also knew that this was not the time to talk about this matter, so he temporarily put away the idea.

Next, Chen Jingke conducted a thorough inspection for Zhu Biao.

He called Wu Yuan again and asked about the previous situation and various symptoms.

It was finally determined that Zhu Biao did have high blood pressure and was in an outbreak period.

"Your Highness, I won't go into details about rheumatoid arthritis. You should also know what it is."

"No matter what you think next, you must do what I say."

"Otherwise, I will write to Your Majesty and Your Majesty and ask them to discipline you personally."

Upon hearing this threat, Zhu Biao laughed and said:

"Okay, okay, I listen to you. Who said you are a miracle doctor?"

"They will use my parents to oppress me. I won't be able to control you anymore."

Chen Jingke was not polite and said with a smile: "You are the king and I am the minister. I will listen to you at other times."

"But as long as I treat illnesses and save people, you have to listen to me."

Based on Zhu Biao's actual situation, he formulated a harsh treatment package.

Including what time to go to bed, what time to get up, when to eat, what to eat, how long to work every day...

All are carefully stipulated.

"Your Highness, please follow this."

Zhu Biao felt a little numb when he saw it: "This is too strict, can it be relaxed?"

Chen Jingke nodded and said, "Yes, as long as you strictly follow this standard, I will make corresponding adjustments based on your physical recovery."

Zhu Biao smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, just pretend I didn't say it."

When Wu Yuan looked at this standard, he naturally had a lot of doubts and confusion.

Although the ancients discovered hypertension, their understanding of this disease was not very clear.

Therefore, in terms of treatment, it is not very perfect.

Chen Jingke's set of standards was completely aimed at high blood pressure. It was normal for him to not understand many parts.

Chen Jingke explained high blood pressure to him in detail, and he already understood the purpose of this package without having to explain too much.

Naturally, I am both grateful and admired for Chen Jingke.

I am grateful to him for imparting knowledge selflessly and admire his profound knowledge and broadmindedness.

Zhu Biao is only 28 years old, which is when he is in the prime of life.

The reason why high blood pressure is so serious is because of fatigue and negative emotions.

As long as you reduce your workload, return to a normal schedule, and receive appropriate treatment, you will recover quickly.

Under Chen Jingke's supervision, his energy and energy improved significantly after just one week.

This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

He became even more convinced of Chen Jingke's reputation as a miracle doctor.

It was at this time that Chen Jingke received a letter from Yingtian.

Zhu Yuanzhang's personal letter.

The content first asked about Zhu Biao's condition and told him to treat him carefully.

If Zhu Biao doesn't cooperate, let him write a letter back and so on.

At the end of the letter, the real purpose was stated, asking for help.

Li Wenzhong was ill, and the imperial doctor's treatment was ineffective, so he asked him if there was anything he could do.

A medical certificate is also attached at the back.

Li Wenzhong was Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew and one of the six founding Dukes of the Ming Dynasty.

No wonder Lao Zhu was so anxious and wrote a letter asking for help.

Chen Jingke took the medical certificate and read it again and again, but he was confused.

Why do Li Wenzhong's symptoms look more and more like a mental problem?

It's not that he suffers from mental illness, but that his symptoms are more like being frightened, causing restlessness and panic.

To put it bluntly, it is a disease caused by fear.

But Li Wenzhong is the majestic Duke of Cao, who can scare him into being like this?
