Farmer’s Little Girl

   Chapter 1701

  The Imperial Medical Office is about to start school. From now on, at least for a short time, Zheng Gu and the others can no longer come to the palace for needles.

  The news in the palace has always been well informed. Perhaps because of this, more palace residents have applied for the needle in the past two days.

As one of the principals, Duke Wu received more news. For example, "I heard that Prince Gong quietly got up at night to go to the small kitchen to eat. When someone in the palace saw him, he didn't dare to say anything. Try to hide it from Aunt Shang."

  For another example, "A few adults feel that the educational fee set by the Imperial Medical Office is too high, and the impeachment of Prince Wang and Taiyuan Hospital of Yushitai is taking the opportunity to make money."

  Man Bao listened to the gossip with relish at first, but she didn’t expect that the gossip would burn to her side. She immediately asked, "Which Lord Wang? Is Wang Ji?"

  Wu Gonggong, who was lying on the bed and getting a needle, smiled and responded with a "Yes". He has been here for three days and will take a break out of the palace tomorrow at Zhou Man, which is really a pity.

  He lay on the bed and said nonchalantly: "Master Zhou Xiao don't need to worry. Your Royal Highness is often impeached and nothing will happen."

  Who is worried about the prince? What she is worried about is that Xiao Yuan is just right. You must know that she is standing behind Xiao Yuan. Well, there are also many doctors in the hospital.

  Man Bao put down the last needle and ignored her three disciples. He held his chin on the side and asked, "Duke Wu, do you know who those adults are?"

  Duke Wu was a little sleepy, and asked, "What do you want to do with this? Let Zhan Shifu do all these things, that is, there are people who speak for the prince in North Korea."

  Will someone speak for them in the hospital?

  Man Bao frowned, but still asked, she decided, write down the names of these people, and tell Xiao Yuanzheng back, and directly rejected the people from their family.

  Hmph, since it's too expensive, then don't come. She hasn't impeached them for digging the corner of the imperial emperor.

   Thinking of this, Man Bao's eyes lit up. Yes, the imperial physician does not have the power to fold up, but he does the editing.

  Man Bao looked at Wu Gonggong who was lying on his stomach with shining eyes. If he hadn't got a needle in his body, she would pat him vigorously on the shoulder twice to express her happiness.

  When she returned to Chongwenguan, she found that Xiao Yuan was not there, so she turned and ran to the hospital to look for him.

  Xiao Yuan was immersed in writing, and when he saw someone standing in front of him, he raised his head and took a look. Seeing that it was Zhou Man, he asked, "What's the matter?"

   "Xiao Yuanzheng, does anyone want those twenty places?"

   "Naturally, the queen mother gave them three days to report it. No, it will report thirty-six in one go. I'm having a headache about how to choose this person."

  Man Bao took the list and looked at the list and saw many repeated surnames above, and asked, "Isn't this from the same family?"

   "One family, not one family."

  Man Bao found a name. The head of the household marked after that was Wang Ji, and she also found the names of the adults.

  She smiled, and under Xiao Yuanzheng's eyes, she took a pen and drew a circle on it, "Xiao Yuanzheng, since it's difficult, then let these five people go."

  Xiao Yuan took a look and asked, "Did they offend you?"

He said earnestly: "Emperor Zhou, we cannot avenge personal revenge as an official. I have already discussed with the other doctors of the Taiyuan Hospital. First, we have to make sure that there is one person in the one who has reported, and the rest will be divided under consideration. Already divided."

  Man Baodao: "They and your majesty impeached you, don't you know?"

  The impeached Xiao Yuan paused for a moment, staring slightly, "Who did you hear?"

  Duke Wu’s name almost blurted out, and Man Bao immediately turned around and said, “Anyway, I’ve heard it. If you don’t believe me, go to Yushitai to ask.”

  Xiao Yuanzheng, of course, can’t ask it himself, that’s a shame, and it’s too horrible.

  So he called a subordinate and asked him to inquire.

  Yushitai is also in the imperial city, not far away, just a little longer.

  Man Bao sat aside while helping to sort out various list documents, while talking to Xiao Yuanzheng, "Someone has been impeached, you have to argue, right?"

  Xiao Yuan was having a headache and said: "What kind of arguing, arguing with Yushi, how can I not think about it?"

  Man Bao felt that they could not admit the counsel, "...otherwise Yushitai will still treat us as a good bully. If there is anything to bully us."

  Xiao Yuan was looking at her and said: "Did you go to the court last time? Didn't you go to the court personally?"

   refers to the time Zhou Man was late.

  Man Bao said without raising his head: "Why is that the same? I was late that time. It was indeed wrong, but we were not wrong this time."

  She said: "One person is one hundred taels, and twenty people are only two thousand taels a year. Where can they earn money?"

  Man Bao, who often makes money from the nobles in the capital, knows that these powerful families are not short of money. An organization is two thousand taels a year. Where is more?

But the account is obviously not calculated in this way. The little imperial doctor who came back from inquiring about the news bowed his head and stood right in front of the Xiaoyuan, and said: "...The annual salary of a fourth-rank official is fifty taels, and one hundred taels this year is equivalent to a fourth-ranked official. An official’s two-year salary, it takes ten years for a fourth-grade official to train a healer without eating or drinking. Isn’t this what it means to earn money?"

The little imperial doctor secretly looked up at Xiao Yuanzheng, who had a pale face, and his voice became quieter. He continued to bite the bullet and said: "Those imperial historians also said that the good colleges out there are only 20 taels of repairs a year. Not to mention ordinary small academies, which can be studied for one year at five or eight. This study of medicine is ten times more expensive than the strategy of governing the country. Is it possible that medical craftsmen are better than scholars ?"

Xiao Yuanzheng’s face was almost impossible to see. Even the other busy imperial physicians in the Taiyuan Hospital put aside their work, straightened up and listened carefully.

Man Bao was stunned. She knew that Yu Shi didn't speak very nicely, but she didn't expect it to be so unpleasant. She was so angry that she slapped the table, turned her head and said to Xiao Yuanzheng, "Yuanzheng, can we still bear this tone? The discount must be applied!"

  The other imperial doctors couldn't suppress the fire in his chest, and nodded vaguely.

Xiao Yuan was so angry that he almost lost his mind. As soon as he turned his head and saw Zhou Man's fanfare appearance, he calmed down.

  He glared at her, then turned around and asked the little doctor, "What else?"

  The little imperial doctor said in a cold sweat: "There is also a scolding of His Royal Highness. Finally, he also said that the imperial hospital has recently been close to the East Palace. Could it be that it is collecting money under the guise of passing on the art of the East Palace?"

The Taiyuan Hospital quieted down, and Xiao Yuan was meditating, but Man Bao on the side rolled his eyes and said: "They are not fools. Your Majesty will give the Prince the full authority of the Imperial Medical Office. If you want to do it in Chongwenguan, you will inevitably have to interact with Zhan Shifu, and if you don't go to the East Palace frequently, do you want to stop by their Yushitai?"

  All imperial physicians:...

  Xiao Yuanzheng turned his head and said to her unbearably: "You can shut up, how can the palace be so unobstructed?"

  　 See you at 7 o'clock in the afternoon. I have something to do temporarily so I changed the time. It's not that you read it wrong.
