Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

After Zhao Fengxiang finished speaking, he turned to the first page and saw the words "Chuan Zhong Lu", which started with the following statement: "Everything cannot be done outside of reason, and medical treatment is especially based on reason..."

Zhang Jiebin saw Zhao Fengxiang looking at him and did not rush him, but just looked at him expectantly.

Seeing this, Wang Tingfu came over to take a look and was attracted by the book. Zhao Fengxiang was fascinated by the book and was about to turn the page. Wang Tingfu quickly stopped him: "Oh, wait a minute, I'm only halfway through the book!"

Zhao Fengxiang said disgustedly: "I can't even read a book, so what's the use of you?"

Zhao Fengxiang handed the book to him and turned to Zhang Jiebin and said: "This book shows quite a lot of basic skills. The yin and yang are both cold and hot. Although it does not go beyond Zhong Jing's intention, the eight formations of doctors behind it use the art of war as a metaphor for medicine, but it is

Words of opening a family.”

"Now I am more curious about who this Jingyue is. You are so lucky to be able to find out from tens of thousands of books."

Zhang Jiebin laughed loudly when he heard this: "Brother Zhao, I have said it eight hundred times. This is my book. I was just teasing you before."

"Your book?" Zhao Fengxiang said very doubtfully: "Everyone knows the basics. Besides, you have abandoned medicine for many years, how can you have such attainments?"

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Zhang Jiebin pointed to the book and said, "Look at the title page for yourself to see if my name is on it."

Zhao Fengxiang came over and took a look, and sure enough, the title page clearly read: Mianzhu Zhang's son Jie Binzhuan. He still couldn't believe it and said: "Jingyue is really you?"

Zhang Jiebin smiled slightly: "It will be replaced if it's fake."

When Wang Tingfu heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but sigh: "We have been separated for three days. I should look at each other with admiration. The ancients sincerely did not deceive me. It seems that you made the right decision on this military trip."

"Of course, being shrouded in horse leather is the best destination for a man." Zhang Jiebin said proudly.

"Dang~dang~dang~"

At this moment, the gong rang, and the scattered crowds gathered in the lobby. Zhang Jiebin and the other three also turned and walked towards the lobby.

On the display board outside the lobby, Yang Jishi and the others were posting lists, and the two red lists were particularly conspicuous.

Sima Dafu was knocking the gong with a gong in his hand, and there were a group of doctors who were not participating in the competition. They were there to maintain discipline. Sima Dafu said loudly while knocking: "Look at the results on the left and the list of contestants on the right. If you can't bear the blow, it is recommended to just

Look at the results on the left."

After everyone heard this, most of them went to the left. After looking at the results, it was clear who was up and who was down.

Wang Tingfu and the two were about to squeeze to the left, but Zhang Jiebin quickly grabbed them and said: "There are so many people, let's just go and see the results, so as not to have to run twice."

Although Zhang Jiebin also feels that this assessment is difficult, he is still confident that he can pass it. Unless he only chooses one or two people to compete, they will definitely be on the list.

Wang Tingfu and Zhao Fengxiang hesitated for a while after hearing this, but they were still pulled to the right by Zhang Jiebin.

Although there were only more than a hundred people participating in the competition at this time, there were nearly two hundred doctors and doctors who did not participate, and there were not a few who joined in the fun.

"Make way, make way, you guys are waiting, don't crowd, let us watch first." Zhang Jiebin shouted loudly, asking the spectators to stop crowding.

"Your Majesty, it's okay. I can't tell you how to hide it." Hearing Zhang Jiebin's voice, Wu Kun turned around and said with a smile.

"What's so hidden?" Zhang Jiebin asked in shock, and at this moment, Chen Shigong's voice came.

"Everyone, don't worry, please be quiet. I'll read the list to the people behind me." Chen Shi's voice was like a bell, which immediately covered up the noisy noise in the scene: "Third and twenty, Wu Xueyi."

As soon as these words came out to Yang Chengzhen next to Wu Xueyi, Zhu Guodong suddenly became excited.

"Brother Xueyi, you are on the list." Yang Chengzhen shook Wu Xueyi excitedly.

"Hahaha, I knew you could get in." Zhu Guodong on the side also laughed excitedly.

The three of them have performed poorly in the assessments over the years. Basically, it can be said that they will both suffer losses and gain glory. Since Wu Xueyi is on the list, it means that they will also be on the list.

Chen Shigong ignored everyone's comments and continued to read a name, pausing for a moment: "Nineteenth among the top three, Wang Dingxin."

"Top 18, Qian Guozuo."

"Seventeen of the top three, the support is as high as rising."

"Top three..."

I read several names in a row, but no one answered, probably because I was looking at the results on the left and didn't come over.

Chen Shigong took a breath and continued to read: "The fifth place in the top three, Wang Tingfu."

Zhang Jiebin pulled Wang Tingfu over and said with a smile: "What, I said you don't need to go to the left to see? You are the top three Jinshi of my medical department."

"Huh? I didn't expect that the minister would also know about the opening of medical examinations in the Yuan Dynasty." Wu Kun said in surprise.

"I don't know what the medical examination is!" Zhang Jiebin was confused. Could it be that in addition to the civil and military examinations, there were also medical examinations?

"I'm telling you, the news can't spread so fast." Wu Kun slapped his forehead. He didn't even bother to listen to Chen Shigong's name. Instead, he explained to Zhang Jiebin: "Some time ago, we were sorting through the collection of books in Taiyuan Hospital and accidentally discovered " "Tongzhi Tiaoge". Only then did we know that the matter in "Yuan History" about the ancestors and the prime minister discussing the opening of the imperial examination was true."

Zhang Jiebin frowned and thought for a while, but still couldn't remember it, so he asked: "Is there any? Why don't I remember it?"

"Election 1," In September of the 21st year of the Yuan Dynasty, Prime Ministers Huo Lu Huosun and Liu Mengyan wrote to the provincial ministers in mid-November, saying that there were few people who practiced Confucianism in the world, and there were more officials who were elected by officials with swords and pens. '." Wu Kun memorized a passage and asked, "Do you have any memory now?"

Zhang Jiebin thought for a while and said uncertainly: "You mean to allow Mongolian scholars, Confucian officials, yin and yang, and medical skills to be tested? Wouldn't it be settled in the end?"

Wu Kun nodded and said with emotion: "We thought it was just a suggestion before and it was not implemented. It was not until we found "Tong Zhi Tiao Ge" in the library that we realized that this might actually be implemented."

"Later, I applied to the Ministry of Rites, consulted the royal collection, and finally found the "Yuan Dian Zhang" in Wenyuan Pavilion, which confirmed the authenticity of the "Yuan Shi" and "Tong Zhi Tiao Ge" regarding the holding of imperial examinations in medicine."

It turns out that there were royal libraries in all dynasties. In the Ming Dynasty, the libraries were Wenyuan Pavilion and Huang Shichen. Especially Wenyuan Pavilion had a collection of more than 40,000 books. Huang Shichen also collected a copy of "Yongle Dadian".

Just as Chen Shigong was reading the names one by one, Wu Kun began to talk about the medical imperial examination in the Yuan Dynasty. In the second year after the Confucian academic examination was launched, the medical imperial examination was once again put on the agenda. Two years later, during the second Confucian academic examination, In 2001, the medical imperial examination was also promulgated and implemented.

"In the third year of Yanyou, the medical imperial examination was promulgated, imitating the Confucian academic examination. There was an examination every three years. It was divided into two levels: the provincial examination and the general examination. There was no quota for the provincial examination, and there could be up to a hundred people in each subject. In the autumn of the fourth year of Yanyou, the much-anticipated medical imperial examination was held as scheduled. Thousands of people went to Beijing to take the exam, and a total of thirty people were admitted. The first-class people were appointed as imperial doctors, the second-class people were appointed as deputy promoters, and the third-class people were appointed as professors." Read the book.

Zhang Jiebin said in surprise: "If I remember correctly, the promotion to deputy medical officer must be at least a sixth-grade official, right?"

"Yes." Wu Kun said.

"My darling, the top scorer in Confucianism was only ranked sixth. I didn't expect that medicine would crush Confucianism." Zhang Jiebin simply couldn't believe it.

"Otherwise, why would so many people abandon Confucianism and practice medicine, or retreat to the mountains and forests to indulge in pear gardens?"

Only then did Zhang Jiebin react: "Why did I suddenly mention the Yitong gathering ten years ago? Isn't this so-called competition of young doctors just a copy of the medical imperial examination?"

Wu Kun said matter-of-factly: "If there hadn't been the medical examination incident of the previous dynasty, would the officials in the Ministry of Rites have let us do whatever we want?"
