Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 53

After being busy for such a long time, although the night was dark at this time, none of the students in the academy left, talking in groups of three or four.These students came here not entirely because of Qiu Wenpu's cold, but because of the tribute list.

Qiu Wenpu is a great celebrity, with peaches and plums all over the world, but there is no absolute in everything, not all the disciples he teaches can be officials.Just like a pyramid, the successful disciples are just a few people on the top of the tower, and most of them still can't get the ranking in the scientific examination.

People are valuable because they have self-knowledge. Many disciples from wealthy families come to Xiantong Academy to study, not because they really want to pass the Jinshi exam, nor because they are greedy for the name of Xiantong Academy.Studying in a famous academy is superior to others?That's not necessarily the case, studying in such a famous academy, the result is still a scientific examination, and it would be even more embarrassing to spread the word!
Many students are sent here by their families for the sake of their connections and the classmates who study with them.In modern terms, it is to become a member of the network!
The disciples in Xiantong Academy are either rich or noble. We are classmates, and we can help each other if we need anything in the future.And those students who passed the imperial examination, after entering the officialdom, can form a small group and form a small circle. Everyone is their own person, and the officials and officials protect each other and support each other.Those who have passed the exam and those who have not passed the exam can engage in collusion between officials and businessmen, money helps power, power generates power, and forms a big force. Wouldn't it be convenient to do anything!

Qiu Wenpu is an old man, of course he understands this truth, so he recruits disciples, the conditions are very strict, the first thing is to look at the qualifications, this is the guarantee of passing the scientific examination, if the qualifications are good, then he will accept this disciple even if he pays for it First, to sponsor him to study, the second thing is to look at his background. If the family is rich, even if his qualifications are poor, he will be accepted into the academy.

Although this method is utilitarian, it is difficult for people to live in the world and want to get out of the mud without being stained. It is even more difficult if they want to be as indifferent as Tao Yuanming. It's hard, and he didn't intend to do it!

In this way, the students in the academy are naturally divided into two circles. One is those who are good at reading. This kind of people has the hope of passing the exam and becoming an official in the future, so everyone has a close relationship, and the other circle, It's just that there is no hope of passing the exam, but the family has money, such people are mostly playboys.

Wang Ping'an and Cheng Jisheng entered the academy through the back door, and saw hundreds of people standing in the back garden. Under the moonlight, they found that the hall in front was also full of people, as if all the disciples of the academy were here tonight. up.

The two of them didn't know about the tribute list, Wang Ping'an said: "It seems that Mr. Qiu is really good at educating people. When he was sick, so many people came to visit him. He is waiting here so late. Should we go there? Tell them that Mr. Qiu's illness is nothing serious?"

Cheng Jisheng shook his head with a smile, and said, "No need, if you tell me in the past, they will pester you endlessly, and maybe ask you to inform them on their behalf, so that they can go in and see the teacher." On the one hand, this kind of flattery method, the old man has seen a lot in Chang'an!"

The two walked slowly along the pond, followed by two young girls, Ding Danruo and Ke Lianwu.

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "Speaking of Chang'an, there are many high-ranking officials there. Does it mean that sometimes when some high-ranking officials are sick, so many people gather outside his house?"

Cheng Ji gave a loud voice and said, "How many people are there? When I was in Chang'an, my eldest grandson once fell ill. Although you live in the countryside, you should have heard of Mr. Wuji. name?"

Wang Pingan nodded and said, "Thunder is piercing the ears!" Others don't know, but Changsun Wuji knows so well that he can't know anymore. No. 1 in Lingyan Pavilion, the real power faction in the Tang court, not to mention the people of this era, even the later generations Everyone knows the name of Changsun Wuji.

Cheng Jisheng said: "Once the eldest grandson fell ill. My husband and his colleagues from the Imperial Medical Office went to see him. Hey, guess what, the people who went to visit his house lined up from the street to the end of the street. It is said that there were 2000 people." , That’s all saying less. The eldest grandson didn’t like this kind of flattery, so he sent his family to drive those people away. Guess what, those visiting people actually knelt on the ground and wailed, saying nothing and yelling If they are not allowed to go in to pay their respects, they will kneel and die at the door!"

Wang Ping'an said with a smile: "Two thousand people kneeled and died at the gate, that scene is quite spectacular!"

"Who says it's not!" Speaking of the past, Cheng Jisheng's face suddenly darkened, and he was silent for a while, and said, "Ping An, you are going to be an official in Beijing in the future. Although you intend to study medicine, you don't have to." Entering the imperial medical office, the old man sees that you are very good at dealing with people, so why don't you ask for favors and enter another official office!"

Wang Pingan snorted and asked, "Why?"

The two walked under a willow tree. Cheng Jisheng broke off a willow branch and played with it in his hands, as if he was thinking about something. Wang Pingan didn't ask, but just stood aside quietly.

Cheng Jisheng sighed, threw away the willow branch, and said, "Although being an imperial doctor is glorious, the risk is too great. Being with the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. If you never miss, then everything is easy to talk about. With the emperor's Believe me, it is not difficult to rise to the top, if you show some strengths in other areas, it is possible to enter the center in the future. But if you miss, it will be a big disaster!"

Wang Pingan nodded silently, he understood this truth.Seeing Cheng Jisheng's sudden emotion, it might be because he remembered the past, he should have missed it!

Sure enough, Cheng Jisheng said: "I think back then, the old man was very energetic. He thought that he could fulfill the orders of the imperial physician with his surgical skills, but it was unexpected. Once he went to the palace to see a doctor for a talented man, and the medicine he prescribed cured his illness." Afterwards, she started to lose her hair, and the talented man was afraid of falling out of favor, so he cried and told the matter to the chief steward of the palace, but the matter was found out to the old man..." He spread his hands, and said: "The old man has no choice but to Resign and return to Xuzhou in embarrassment!"

Wang Ping'an blinked and blinked, and suddenly said: "Is that talented person surnamed Wu?" He remembered that Wu Zetian came, wasn't he just a talented person at first!
"My surname is not Wu, but Qin." Cheng Jisheng didn't know why he asked this question, and continued, "So, if you don't want to enter the Imperial Medical Office in the future, you must study gynecology and pediatrics thoroughly. If you are proficient in these two subjects, the people in the palace will love you, even if you are not developed, you must know that the hardest wind in the world is the pillow wind!"

Wang Pingan sighed, and said: "Then there is no need. If the emperor is blown by the wind a lot, but thinks that I often enter the palace, and I am suspected of messing up the inner court, that would not be bad!"

Cheng Jisheng was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing. Ding Danruo and Ke Lianwu, who were listening, couldn't help covering their mouths and laughing.

At this time, the old servant Qiu Cai ran over and said: "My master just had a slight diarrhea, the young master asked the old servant to ask, is it the result of taking medicine?"

Wang Pingan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's normal, after another quarter of an hour, I'll have another diarrhea!"

Cheng Jisheng said, "I'm going to have a look. Ping An, take this opportunity to chat with those students, it will be of great help to your future future!"

After all, he hurried back to the small courtyard.
