Chapter 296

The imperial doctor was "moved" so loudly.

"Physician Wang, I hope that you can sort out a set of cheap, effective treatment methods that can be used on the battlefield as soon as possible, and then I will call medical officers in the army to train and study in your imperial hospital to improve the survival of soldiers. I have said, 'Don't abandon, don't give up', as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will never abandon my soldiers, and I will not give up the hope of saving them. My words are not only for the people, but also for the army. The same is true for the soldiers, so do you understand the importance of this matter?" Yang Reform raised this matter to a political level.

"I obey, Your Majesty! I understand Your Majesty's painstaking efforts, and I will definitely do my best." Doctor Wang promised solemnly.

"Okay! On the battlefield, most of the wounds are caused by knives, arrows or guns. I hope that your hospital will find ways to do more about this. I have also found alcohol for you to use for debridement, and prepared for you to burn it when debridement. The clean fire of the knife, today when I saw the imperial doctor dissecting a snake, I thought, if the clothes are torn, you can use a needle and thread to sew them up. Then, if a person is cut by a sword or a sharp weapon, can you also use a thread to sew it up? It's a great way to…”

"Your Majesty, are you talking about the suturing technique? This technique has existed in ancient times, so it's not a novelty." The imperial physician replied ostentatiously.

"Uh..., there was this kind of medical skill in ancient times? I mean, if my soldiers are injured by the enemy's knives and arrows on the battlefield, for example, their stomachs are cut open, exposing the intestines inside, what I mean That is to say, after using these things of mine to debride the wound, can it be sewn up with thread, so that maybe a life can be saved, as I said "don't abandon, don't give up", as long as there is a chance of survival, I will not I will let it go." Yang Reform originally wanted to secretly promote the development of medicine and provide his new army with a better medical system, so he deliberately said some advanced things, and did not expect to have them immediately. This kind of medical skill should at least be listed as a research direction or something.How could he know that he had actually heard that there was such a suture technique in ancient times? Yang Reform looked at the imperial physician in disbelief.

"Returning to Your Majesty, this statement is absolutely true. This technique has existed in ancient times, and it has been recorded in the annals of history. Such a thing is recorded in "Book of Tang. Zhongyi Biography". Emperor Wu Zhou [Wu Zetian] of the Tang Dynasty suspected that the prince Rebellion, ordered Lai Junchen to torture the prince's retainers by torture, and forced him to falsely accuse him. Loyal minister Jin Anzang broke into the execution hall, pleaded his case, pulled out his saber and cut open his stomach in the hall, shouting: "Please cut your heart to reveal the emperor's heir [ Prince] Don’t turn back!’ The knife passed through the chest, the five internal organs entered and exited, and the blood flowed to the ground... The Emperor Wu Zhou was moved by Jin Anzang’s loyalty, so he ordered the doctors to take the five internal organs and use the mulberry bark as the thread Sutures, Fu Zhiyao,... Later, An Jinzang came back to life. It is said that the belly was broken, the intestines came out, the blood flowed all over the place, and then after the imperial physician's treatment, he came back to life. The tricks used, It is the suture technique that His Majesty said, it is absolutely true, and there will never be a fake..." The imperial physician was quite confident when he talked about his profession, and when he talked about this magical technique, he even said it like Really ordinary, as if I saw it with my own eyes.

This time, it was Yang Reform's turn to be surprised!There really was something in ancient times!It seems that ancient China did have considerable achievements in medical skills, but, I don’t know what happened later, it’s really a pity that these technologies disappeared.

"Emperor doctor, are you sure this is true?" Yang Reform asked skeptically, the doctor behind the scenes, no matter how you look at it, looks like the protagonist of the doctor in Qidian's novel!It is absolutely impossible to revive a patient who has had their intestines broken. Only the traveler can rely on the anti-inflammatory drugs he just brought along, a series of surgical equipment, and perhaps blood transfusion techniques for this kind of thing. , I am afraid that it is possible to save that person's life, otherwise, just a problem of dirty internal organs cannot be solved!

"Your Majesty, this is definitely not wrong. Otherwise, how could it be recorded in the history books? Jin Anzang is also a well-known loyal minister in history. This matter will have a great impact on the future. If there is no Jin Anzang's self-disclosure , I am afraid that there will be no Emperor Ruizong, so this matter will never be false." The imperial physician said again with certainty that there are not many of them who are engaged in the imperial physician profession and can leave their names in history. Famous genius doctors only wrote a little bit in the biography of Fang Ji. Therefore, it is very remarkable that this miraculous medical skill can leave a few words in history, and it is natural to believe that this is true.

"Really? Well, then I believe it." Seeing the sincerity of the imperial physician, Yang Reform also believed it.Anyway, my goal is to improve the level of medicine. It was better to have this kind of technology in ancient times, but I just carried it forward, and I didn't have my too monstrous performance.

Physician Wang was very happy to see that he had persuaded the emperor. This is the best proof that their profession of doctors indirectly affects history, and it is the most proud and happy thing.

"The imperial doctor, since he had this kind of technology before, that's even better. Now, I want to promote this kind of medical technology that can suture the human body in the military. I don't know how many lives it can save! It’s a failure.” Yang Reform didn’t talk nonsense, since he has this kind of technology, he should use it.

The imperial doctor became embarrassed, and said: "Your Majesty, this trick has long been lost. Now, no one can suture the opened belly and it is still intact. The patient may have died long ago." The imperial doctor said embarrassingly When I told the emperor about ancient times just now, I enjoyed it with gusto and was very proud, but now, I am deflated.

"Lost? There is no one in the hospital who knows how to do this kind of surgery?" Yang Reform was very happy.

"Return to Your Majesty, yes, nowadays, indeed, no one can do this." The imperial physician said regretfully.

"That won't work. You have to master this life-saving technique anyway. It's a life-saving thing! My soldiers, on the battlefield, will save countless people in the future because of this medical skill. How can I let them do nothing?" What? Is my great wish born of white hair? Even if you didn’t have this kind of medical skill before, I still ask you to study it. Since this kind of medical skill already existed in ancient times, you are too hospitalized, so you have to learn this kind of medical skill. , I am waiting for your help." Yang Reform will not be lost no matter what is lost. Since the Tang Dynasty can do it, there is no reason why it can't be done in the Ming Dynasty. There is no qualitative difference in the level of medical technology between the Ming Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty. .

"Your Majesty, this..." Imperial Physician Wang began to feel that entering the palace this time was a trouble.

"Okay, Doctor Wang, don't talk useless things to me. My request is very simple, that is, this kind of medical technique of cutting open the human body, debridement and suturing must be mastered and promoted. As for how to master it , that's the business of your hospital, if you can't do it, I'll find someone who can, understand?"

"Your Majesty, this..., this minister... is really..." Doctor Wang cried with a sad face, and began to regret that he should not have told the emperor about such miraculous medical skills just now.

"Okay, don't be afraid of trouble. This kind of medical skills, since the predecessors practiced it, there is no reason why you can't do it now. Are you born inferior to the predecessors? Believe in your own ability. Didn't I give you some medical equipment? The alcohol is very suitable for cleaning the wound. It is a very clean thing. The fire burned by the alcohol is even more clean, without smoke and dust. There is also a magnifying glass, which can help you find more subtle blood vessels, which can be cut away. You can’t dissect it there, because you should be able to see more carefully, and there is a thermometer to monitor the patient’s body temperature, which can tell you the patient’s condition. With so many things, what are you afraid of? The ancients did not have these things.” Yang Reform can No matter what is okay or not, it must be okay if it is okay, and if it is not okay, it must be okay.

"But, Your Majesty..., if you do this kind of thing, you will die. When the time comes, the family members of the deceased will get entangled. Wouldn't it damage the reputation of the Tai Hospital? Or your Majesty's reputation." Wang Taiyi is really scared, this kind of narrow escape Technology, I have to study it myself, God knows how many people will be put to death, they are imperial doctors, too many people died at their hands, don't even want the guy who is afraid of him eating.

"It's okay, it's simple, you can't take a rabbit first, take a mouse to try it first, and then try it on a human after you find a suitable method? Is this still using my teaching?" Yang Reform was dissatisfied with the elm head of the imperial physician.

"But, Your Majesty! Even so, I'm afraid it will kill people. At that time, the minister will be speechless." The imperial doctor still refused to submit. Once someone sued the official for this kind of thing, they would I'm afraid that imperial doctors won't be able to do it, and they are doctors, and being an envoy of an imperial hospital is already the highest achievement in this industry. If you break your job because of this, it is definitely not worth it.

"This is simple, you first practice with mice and rabbits, and when you are almost done, I will find you some death row prisoners, or Hulu, for you to practice with, and after you have practiced for a long time, sum up your experience , that’s about the same, it should be much easier for future generations to follow your path..." Yang Reform can see how the teaching is done in medical schools in later generations, and he has also heard many horror stories in medical schools. Those who take anatomy class, now, have to follow suit.

Physician Wang wanted to cry. The emperor wanted him to practice this skill. Even if he was beaten to death, he didn’t want to do it. He began to regret why there was such a thing recorded in the history books, and regret why he had nothing to brag about. Now it’s good. If I want to do this, if I do this, I will not be far from being ruined.

……

"...Your Majesty...the imperial hospital is full of talented people. I will urge the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital to practice this trick, and strive to practice this skill as soon as possible, so as to share the worries of your majesty." Wang imperial physician is very cunning, after thinking for a long time, I came up with an idea, since I am the envoy of the Supreme Hospital and have a large number of people under my command, why not let these people do this?It's better than going directly into battle by yourself. Besides, the emperor just wants to reproduce this kind of trick, and he doesn't have to do it himself. Doctor Wang immediately realized that the scapegoat can be thrown to others.

"Okay, what I want is to practice this technique as soon as possible, and to sum up a set of feasible experiences. You can urge the doctors in the Tai Hospital to do it as soon as possible. Remember to step up and keep it secret. I don't want to make troubles all over the city." , do you know?" As long as someone studies this technology for him, Yang Reform doesn't care who it is, and he just ignores the trickery of this imperial physician.

"Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Imperial physician Wang was overjoyed. Sure enough, the golden cicada successfully escaped from its shell, and the scapegoat was thrown away. The emperor wanted this kind of tricks, not to punish himself.

"Okay, no thanks, let's go back to work quickly." Yang Reform resolved one matter in his mind and urged him to do it quickly.

……

Physician Wang left, with mixed feelings, happy, scared, and a little proud.

Imperial physician Wang left, and Yang Reform stayed alone in the Wenhua Palace in a daze. This emperor was not called for nothing!Although I have a way to deal with Li Zicheng and his ilk, wild boar skin, and even bureaucrats, the amount of money I have spent is really huge, and the hole is really too big. Now, my monthly expenditure is in the Most of them are more than 10 taels of silver, and my own income is all based on my own money, and I get a little bit of silver from the edge of the sword, and I get the silver from the normal way, which is so small that it can almost be ignored. Regardless, this kind of financial structure is obviously impossible to last for a long time. The long-term solution is to collect taxes. Unfortunately, the current Ming Dynasty cannot collect taxes, and Yang Reform is very troubled.

"Sigh... Big Companion, how much money do I have left in my internal funds?" Liu Jishan urged for money in Liaodong again, and he formed a union with Lin Danhan. It is impossible not to throw money away, Yang Reform asked with a sigh own butler.

"Return to Your Majesty, there is still a million taels." Wang Chengen holds the emperor's accounts in one hand, so he naturally knows how much money the emperor has, but it is hard to say how much. Ten thousand taels.

"One million taels? Expenses everywhere, Mao Wenlong, Yuan Chonghuan, Xinjun, Wu Sangui, Liu Jishan, and Jin Yiwei... I'm afraid it won't last for two months!" Yang Reform calculated his own accounts with a numbing scalp. .

"Return to Your Majesty, I'm afraid it is." Wang Chengen agreed in a low voice.The emperor is indeed generous in spending money, but now this hole is frightening to death.

"What will happen after two months?" Yang Reform murmured to himself.

"Returning to Your Majesty, in August, the summer tax has come up. What's the matter, there will be some money in the account..." Wang Chengen also used the summer tax to relieve the emperor. To be honest, the previous emperors really counted on the summer and autumn taxes.

"Summer tax? Let's forget it, let's pretend it doesn't exist." Yang Reform flatly rejected the idea of ​​relying on Xia tax. Don't even think about it.

"Your Majesty, if you don't rely on the summer tax, Li Ruolian still has something to offer. There is still a lot of silver in that bank. Your Majesty is really short of money, so let's use that silver as a pad first, and make up for it when you have money in the future. If it doesn't work, just say that someone has embezzled and lost money, just reject it, can they still ask His Majesty for money? Can they still want to rebel? There is also Miss Sun, who has a lot of promise. If His Majesty wants to use money, he can use it Make a turnaround over there." Wang Chengen continued to offer an idea.

"Where is Li Ruolian? Well, there is a way, big companion, send a message to Li Ruolian and ask him to give the money..." Yang Reform wondered whether he should use the money there. Part of the money there is to prevent others from running on it, and to prepare for it. Issuing banknotes is also a troublesome thing!You may even have to pay interest in the coming year.

"Your Majesty...?" Wang Chengen asked.

"Don't worry, I'll think about it again, Liniang's place..., Liniang's place, don't move for now, Li Ruolian's place... I think about it! Think about it..." Yang Reform fell into a dilemma, Li Ruolian's If the money in the bank is spent in vain like this, it is really not worthwhile. If I use the money in it to fight wars and give it to the vassals, nobles, and officials, I will have to make a big fuss In one case, they all know that fighting a war is a bottomless pit, and they can't see the bottom. If they know that they use their money to fight, they will probably tear themselves apart.At that time, if the vassal king, nobles, and officials stand together, then he will really become a loner.You have to consider this matter!Besides, if the money is converted into banknotes, there will be a very large amount of circulation. One piece of money can become two, three, or even four. The leverage effect is very large. It's really not worth it to spend it.Although in the eyes of outsiders, Liulizhai is a place that is making money every day, it is a pity that if it is put on the national level, it is not enough. Even if Liulizhai is sold, it may not be enough for one month's expenses .

Yang Reform hesitated. This matter really has to be cautious. Although the emperor seems to have unlimited power and unlimited power, the pressure is really not small at all.

quite a while……

"Big companion, send a message to Li Ruolian to ask him to take the silver to the Baoquan Bureau and turn it into silver coins. I will use it. In addition... I will turn all the silver in my money into silver coins and deposit it in the bank for the time being." In Baoquan Bureau's silver vault, send heavy soldiers to Baoquan Bureau to guard, don't lose my money..., I want to put on a good show for the world to see." Yang Reform made up his mind and had to think about it. There is a way to solve the current predicament, otherwise, don't let Li Zicheng not be wiped out, the wild boar skin is not killed, he will collapse first, and he will go bankrupt first, that would be ridiculous.

"As ordered, Your Majesty, I will do it now." Wang Chengen promised.

"Wait, then send a message to Xiao Shunzi, asking him to turn all the silver into silver coins within a month. I need it urgently." Yang Reform also ordered, Xiao Shunzi is the eunuch assigned to Beijing Baoquan Bureau , Er Xizi went to Nanjing, and they were all in charge of supervising the coinage. Yang Reform still only trusted his own people—the eunuchs—for such critical parts.

"Your servant obeys, and I'll do it now." Wang Chengen promised again, smacking his tongue secretly. Li Ruolian alone has five or six million taels of silver, and the emperor's internal funds have a million taels. When added up, there are seven million taels Silver, if all of them were minted into silver coins, it would cost tens of millions of silver coins!
The emperor is going to make a big move, Wang Chengen thought to himself.
