Tang Dynasty good doctor

Chapter 66
When Wang Pingan first heard this topic, he first thought of the allusion that Yan Zi sent Chu to Chu. After all, this allusion is so famous that almost everyone knows it.But after thinking about it, Old Master Cheng wants to fix me, if he asks a simple question, how can he fix me?

It must be a trap!
Yanzi envoy Chu, although it was Qi Jun who sent him, but there is no Qi Jun in the allusion, but Chu Jun. When referring to the small gate, he once said the dog gate, and it has something to do with animals. Six words Among them, five characters are consistent, and the difference is only the two characters "Qi" and "Chu". What other deeds of Yan Zi can match these six characters?
Suddenly, Wang Ping'an had an idea, and he remembered another allusion about Yanzi!Clearing his throat, he replied loudly: "This allusion is related to the locust tree. It is a story about the emperor's rule of law, the famous officials persuaded it, the emperor obeyed, the people benefited, and everyone was happy."

Oh!There was a sound of admiration in the study hall, and the students who were concentrating on studying nodded their heads one after another, yes, isn't it the allusion.When the dandies saw them nodding, they hurriedly nodded, saying that we also know this allusion, and everyone is equally knowledgeable!

It is said that Duke Jing of Qi loves pagoda trees and is especially guarded by them. He also made a law that offenders of pagoda trees will be punished and those who injure pagoda trees will die.Once someone got drunk and hurt a locust tree, and the government punished him.This man's daughter found Yanzi, and agreed that the monarch would not harm the people because of the grass and trees, but now the monarch wants to hurt my father because of the locust tree. If this kind of behavior spreads to other countries, people will say Our monarch is stupid, but he cherishes the tree and despises people.Yan Zi went to persuade Qi Jinggong, Qi Jinggong listened to the persuasion, and canceled this unreasonable decree.

This allusion comes from "The Spring and Autumn Annals of Yanzi". This book is not a must-read book for scientific research, but at most it is a supplementary textbook. Should you know the story in it?should know!But must know?Then there is no need for this!Should know and must know, these are different concepts.

Students who concentrate on preparing for the exam can increase their knowledge by reading it, but it doesn’t matter if they don’t read it. No need to know!
Why does Wang Pingan know this allusion, because the locust tree that appears in this allusion, its locust leaves, locust flowers and locust horns are all traditional Chinese medicines!Sophora japonica leaves can cure toothache, Sophora japonica flower can stop bleeding, Sophora japonica can improve eyesight.When he first learned about Huaijiao medicine, he had seen this little allusion, so of course he knew it!

Cheng Zhoutong yelled, and he really knew it, it seems that this ruler can't hit his hand!He got this question quite wrong. For students who are admitted to Jinshi, the most important thing is to be familiar with the Nine Classics and study poetry, rather than to read some miscellaneous notes. Moreover, he set a trap again. He thought that Wang Ping'an I can't answer, I didn't expect that I didn't stump him at all!
Zhao Bi shouted: "Okay, good answer!" He clapped his hands, and Lu Xiuzhi also applauded loudly, clapping his palms loudly.Seeing this, the other students rushed to make fun of it, and started applauding too. Suddenly, the hall erupted in applause!
Wang Pingan stood up and bowed his hands to the surroundings, but thought in his heart: "Fortunately, this allusion has something to do with traditional Chinese medicine. It didn't bother me. If I had to change it to something else, I'd be sick enough!"

Cheng Zhoutong felt unhappy, slapped the table, and said: "Shut up, if you continue to make noise, everyone will be fined to copy the "Book of Rites" a hundred times!"

Only then did the students stop their applause, but many dudes winked at Wang Pingan to express their admiration.It seems that Wang Ping'an is not only superior in level of dandyism, but also not bad in knowledge.

The applause in the room stopped, but the applause outside the room was still ringing, clapping, clapping, and the shooting was quite rhythmic!

Cheng Zhoutong followed the sound and looked out, only to see the two little maids of Wang Ping'an poking their heads over the window. After they were kicked out, they did not go far, but turned around and ran to the window The son eavesdropped and peeked, and when they saw their young master getting the limelight, the two of them were happier than anyone else, and they applauded even more vigorously!
Hey, these two little girls are so unreasonable, who let them stay here!Cheng Zhoutong was about to lose his temper, when the two little girls saw that something was wrong, they stuck out their tongues and hurriedly shrank their heads under the window.A beautiful girl doesn't have the same knowledge as the strange grandpa, can't she be provoked or hide?

Cheng Zhou said with a sullen face, "As a Jinshi candidate, I don't study the Nine Classics, but only read miscellaneous books, wasting time!"

Wang Pingan frowned, and said: "Mr. Huicheng, the student is not taking the exam for Jinshi, but for medicine!"

"Ah, you are taking the medical exam?" Cheng Zhoutong's face became more gloomy, why didn't you say it earlier, and wait until I failed you in the exam, you are really cunning!He didn't say that it was wrong for him to make things difficult for others, but he said that it was wrong for others not to be made difficult!

Just as he was about to use the topic to make some use of it, suddenly a boy came running outside the school hall and waved to Zhou Tong.

Cheng Zhoutong frowned, got up and left the study hall, the boy said a few words to him in a low voice, Cheng Zhoutong's face changed drastically, he walked back to the room, and said in a loud voice: "Masters, the homework is heavy, you need You should study hard, first write all the Nine Classics silently, and wait for the old man to come back and check!" After saying that, he turned around and left, as if there was something urgent to do.

As soon as Mr. Cheng left, there was a bang in the school hall, and the students complained loudly. What a joke, they wrote all the Nine Classics silently, which is too much!

Someone shouted: "Schoolboy, Shuboy, my master has a lot of homework. You should help me to worry about it. Come in quickly and copy the Nine Classics. I want to check your calligraphy. If it is different from mine, I will take a ruler." Serve me!" This is a dandy who is served by a bookboy.

And those students who don't have bookboys sighed, Mr. Cheng is so confused, he even asked us to write the Nine Classics, how much paper would it take, paper is very expensive!

Wang Pingan said that he was taking the medical exam. Although Cheng Zhoutong was very angry, other students' impression of him began to improve.They already knew about the list, although there was no addition or change, so Wang Pingan did not harm their interests, did not offend anyone, and the little dissatisfaction with him naturally disappeared.

But Wang Ping'an was studying medicine, but this is the study hall of the Jinshi department. He has no competition with the students who are taking the Jinshi exam, but the people who are also taking the miscellaneous subjects have a lot of affection for him.
Zhao Bi and Lu Xiuzhi came uninvited, ran to Wang Ping'an's desk and sat down, Zhao Bi said with a smile: "It turns out that Wang Xiandi took the exam for medicine, which is the same as me!" He knew that Wang Ping'an was born in Wuli Village and was not the son of a nobleman. , so he is no longer called Brother Wang, but according to his age, he is called Brother Wang Xian.

Wang Pingan laughed and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao also took the exam for medicine. I thought I was the only one in the academy who took the exam for medicine!"

Zhao Bi chuckled, and said, "It's two, it's the two of us! But, actually, I don't know anything about medical skills, and I'm most annoyed by the smell of medicine. I smell it all day long, and it's smoked to death. How can I learn it? !"

Wang Ping'an was amazed and asked, "Since Brother Zhao doesn't like to study medicine, why did he want to take medicine?"

Zhao Bi snorted, looked around first, and then whispered: "I am a son of a good family. My family runs a farm, but I also do some business. I sell medicinal materials. I have acquaintances in Beijing who can take care of me when the time comes. If you change to another subject, you won’t be able to take care of it!”

Wang Pingan let out a cry. It turned out that he had a backer in Chang'an. He was about to open his mouth to ask, but he heard Zhao Bi say again: "Brother Wang Xian, brother Lu is also taking a miscellaneous subject. Guess which subject he is taking?"

With a smile on Lu Xiuzhi's face, he stretched out five fingers and shook Wang Ping'an.

Wang Ping'an said, "Is it Mingshu?"

Lu Xiuzhi shook his head, and said: "This test is too difficult. You need to pass the test if you have [-] out of [-]. I don't have that ability!"

Wang Pingan looked at his five dangling fingers, wondering if he was talking about the Four Books and Five Classics?He said, "Is it the Ming Jing Department? But this is the study hall of the Jinshi Department!"

Lu Xiuzhi cheered, and said, "I don't have that ability anymore, guess again!"

Wang Pingan shook his head and said, "I can't guess what subject Brother Lu took the exam?"

Lu Xiuzhi chuckled and said, "It's Bu Ke!"

Zhao Bi smiled and said, "Brother Wang Xian, brother Lu sees that your heavenly court is full and your earthly pavilion is round, so I came here to tell your fortune!"
