The Ming Dynasty started with saving the eldest grandson

Chapter 81 Lao Zhu feels that he can do it again

As soon as he returned to his room, he saw Zhu Xiongying following him sneakily.

"Jing Ke, Jing Ke, Grandpa Huang and Grandma Huang had a fight just now."

Um... Chen Jingke was speechless looking at Zhu Xiongying whose face was full of excitement.

Your grandpa and your grandma had a fight. What do you mean by being so happy?
So filial.

"Why did your Majesty offend the queen?"

"Hehe..." Zhu Xiongying lowered his voice and laughed:

"Some foreign ministers came to the emperor's grandmother to complain, saying that the Zhao Mao case was too involved."

"Mao Xiang has arrested more than 6000 officials, and now he has reached out to big locals..."

Has it progressed to this point?Chen Jingke thought to himself.

"The Imperial Grandmother thinks that doing this will shake the country's foundation and make the Imperial Grandfather kill less."

"Grandpa Huang said that these people must be severely punished for their corruption and violation of the law."

"Local big families collude with officials to seize fertile farmland and harm the people. We cannot let it go."

"He also talked about the benevolence of the Imperial Grandmother as a woman..."

Chen Jingke thought to himself, Lao Zhu thinks he is good again, how dare he yell at Queen Ma like this.

"What did the empress say?"

The expression on Zhu Xiongying's face was even more excited: "The emperor's grandmother said, what's wrong with her being a woman? Do you look down on women?"

"They also said that Grandpa Huang was also born from a woman's belly, and he forgot his origins when he became emperor..."

Chen Jingke gave a thumbs up in his heart. The one who dared to say that about Lao Zhu was Empress Ma.

Lao Zhu also has a short memory. He has never won a fight between the two.

He actually dared to do it right in front of his face, so he must have been slapped now.

"Then Grandpa Huang became very angry and asked Grandma Huang to reflect in Kunning Palace."

"He also said that the imperial grandmother was not in good health and asked foreign ministers not to disturb her rest."

Hey, this is enough to ban Ma Xiuying, Lao Zhu is brave enough.

I just don’t know who would dare to stop her from leaving the palace.

Chen Jingke also gossiped: "Then, what did the empress say?"

Zhu Xiongying spread his hands: "Grandma Huang kicked Grandpa Huang out, saying that she was not in good health and needed to rest, and asked Grandpa Huang not to bother her in the future."

Chen Jingke asked: "Where is your Majesty, just leaving like this?"

Zhu Xiongying chuckled and said, "How could that be possible? Grandpa Huang lingered at the door for a long time and only left after receiving several rejections."

Sure enough, every time these two couples quarrel, Lao Zhu gets angry first.

Then he was brutally beaten by Queen Ma, and was finally kicked out.

Then Lao Zhu apologized in various ways.

This happens every time, Lao Zhu never learns his lesson, and every time he wants to show off the majesty of the emperor.

Then there was the suppression.

are used to it.

but……

Seeing Zhu Xiongying with an excited face, Chen Jingke couldn't help but feel happy.

This kid, even when watching a show, he saw his grandparents getting sick.

So filial.

However, it can also be seen from this that the Zhu family really only has four people.

It's not that they are not close to other descendants, but in comparison, these four are the closest.

Then it's everyone else's turn.

After gossiping with Zhu Xiongying for a while, today's lecture began.

It is said to be a lecture, but in fact it is just a small talk.

Most of the topics started with Chen Jingke, and then the two of them chatted.

Occasionally, when Zhu Xiongying encounters something he is interested in, he will take the initiative to bring up the topic, and Chen Jingke will start talking to him.

After half an hour, the topic was finished. Seeing that it was not too late, everyone went about their own business.

Zhu Xiongying has homework to do, after all, he is still in the learning stage.

Chen Jingke took out the medical books he borrowed from Tai Hospital and looked through them.

The system of ancient Chinese medicine is very vast, and it is impossible for him to memorize all the knowledge points through memory.If you want to complete the compilation of medical books, you need to learn from the medical books left by your predecessors.

Moreover, as I communicated more with many imperial doctors, I also read medical books from different regions.

He discovered a problem, a fatal problem for Chinese medicine.

The theoretical system is not unified.

This is a question that he has always ignored.

In previous lives, everyone basically knew that traditional Chinese medicine paid attention to yin and yang and the five elements.

But in ancient times, Yin Yang and the Five Elements were just a relatively widespread system.

There were also many different theoretical systems circulating during the same period.

This has a consequence. For the same disease in different places, if you go to different doctors to see it, you may get two results.

The reason is that different doctors in different places may not use the same set of medical theories.

Also, different medicinal materials grow in different regions, and the prescriptions for treating the same disease are also different.

Because most medicinal materials are replaceable.

The price of foreign medicines plus shipping costs will increase several times.

Why use foreign medicines when local medicines can also be used and are cheaper?
Unless there are medicinal materials that are not grown locally and there are no substitutes, foreign medicines will be used.

This has a negative consequence. If the doctor moves to another place, others may not be able to understand the prescription he prescribes.

Here I have to mention the "Compendium of Materia Medica", whose appearance solved the regional differences in medicinal materials.

As long as you read the "Compendium of Materia Medica" thoroughly, no matter where you go, you can prescribe medicine according to the local conditions.

That's what's great about it.

This is another reason why Chen Jingke wrote medical books.

However, regional differences in medicinal materials can be resolved with a medical book.

The difference in medical theory is a bit troublesome.

In the previous life, after liberation, the country gathered the national experts in traditional Chinese medicine at that time.

Taking Yin Yang and the Five Elements as the main components, and absorbing the essence of each system, a unified theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine is formed.

It is this system that Chen Jingke has been studying and using.

He was able to write out this system, but the problem was, how to promote it.

In the previous life, it was promoted by the power of the state. Later, all medical universities adopted this system.

If you don’t learn, we won’t even give you the qualification to practice medicine.

Nowadays, medical inheritance is basically passed down from family to family or taught by masters and apprentices. It is difficult to unify the theoretical system.

Really unable to think of a way, he could only shake his head and sigh:

That’s all, write down the medicine first, and then slowly figure out how to promote it.

At worst, I will spend my own money to print a large number of books and send them to other doctors for free.

Knowledge is precious these days and few people share it with others.

There are free medical books, so I can’t believe they are not interested.

When the time comes to develop modern medicine on their own, they won’t be able to learn it even if they don’t want to.

In the next few days, Chen Jingke's life returned to normal.

Zhu Biao reads and writes medical books every day, and helps Zhu Biao whenever he needs help.

During this period, he also asked Zhu Biao on the sidelines to find out why the imperial court wanted to expand the accounting department.

Is the gap in planning officials really that big?
Zhu Biao did not hide it from him and told him the truth.

Knowing the current situation, Chen Jingke couldn't help but feel heavy.

Zhu Yuanzhang was decisive in killing and was an emperor who dared to lift the table, and he did so again and again.

There are certainly benefits to doing this.

But it also brought about a negative consequence: the bureaucracy was destroyed and a large number of positions became vacant.

The result is chaos at the grassroots level.

When there is a vacuum in power, someone needs to take over.

If the imperial court cannot send enough officials to fill the vacancies, then this position will be controlled by large local households.

This situation has already occurred at the grassroots level in Ming Dynasty.

And this is too fatal for a country.
