Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

Tan Lun praised himself. He has this confidence because Fuzhou has produced talents in large numbers since ancient times. It is a great place for imperial examinations, a hometown of talented people, a hometown of medicine, and a hometown of drama. When it comes to the prosperity of talents and the erudition, it can be compared with

There are not many powerful mansions in Fuzhou.

"Going to the Orchid Pavilion in Shanyin, Kuaiji", a "Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection" made Kuaiji Shanyin famous all over the world.

"The Zhuhua of Yeshui illuminates Linchuan's writings", and a "Preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion" makes Linchuan (Fuzhou), the hometown of talented people, deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Yang Jishi smiled and nodded. Fuzhou is very strong, but Quzhou is not weak either. The song "Sanqu Daozhong" also made Sanqu famous throughout the world.

The same is true for Xu Chunfu. Who in the world doesn't know Xin'an? Oh, Xin'an also has a name called Huizhou. The famous Hui merchants are Xin'an merchants. It's just that people are accustomed to calling Xin'an doctors instead of Huizhou doctors.

Tan Lun talked for a long time before taking a rest. He had been feeling cold for the past few days, and the sequelae of a stroke had made him feel very uncomfortable. Now that he had been treated with acupuncture by Yang Jishi, he felt relieved, so he rambled on for a long time.

One breath.

"By the way, you guys came here hand in hand, aren't you here specifically to treat me?" Tan Lun asked as if he suddenly remembered.

"We came to Mr. Tan and wanted to use the Ministry of War's post to inform Gyeonggi, Shanxi, Shandong, and Henan that we will hold an examination for doctors from Taiyuan Hospital on March 3rd, and we will appoint three to fifty doctors each, regardless of whether they are selected or not.

No punishment." Xu Chunfu said slowly.

"Why did you suddenly think of taking the exam to be a doctor?" Tan Lun asked. Xu Chunfu told the truth about Zhang Jiebin.

Tan Lun immediately agreed and said he would take a look at the model.

After the matter was discussed, everyone said goodbye and left. Yang Jishi said: "Da Sima, I will give you acupuncture every few days, which can relieve your symptoms to a certain extent."

……

Four days passed quickly, and the once-a-month holiday came.

The whole capital has returned to a lively scene, with various temple fairs, rallies, banquets, and outings emerging one after another. However, in the Longqing Dynasty, the lively lecture style has disappeared. Otherwise, the Lingji Palace at this moment would be extremely lively and crowded.

However, no one knew at this time that a conference was being held in a small medical clinic. The excitement was no less than that of a lecture club.

Almost all the people from Taiyuan Hospital were dispatched, but only Xu Chunfu came as the imperial doctor. In name, the imperial doctor can be regarded as part of Taiyuan Hospital, but in fact it belongs to two departments.

At this time, in the backyard of Yiyi Hall, there were imperial doctors such as Gong Tingxian, Yang Jishi, Tu Shen, Yu Yingkui, Liu Yude, Wang Men, Meng Fenglai, Zhou Liangzong, Zhang Tingyu, Wu Wenbing, etc.

There are also medical families in the capital, represented by Jin Ying, and southern medical families represented by Tang Xianzu, Zhang Shoufeng, and Chen Shigong.

Xu Chunfu introduced: "Brother Mengshi must be familiar to everyone. This Tang Xianzu, whose courtesy name is still, has many talents. If you want to listen to the opera, you can contact him. This is the former Shaoxing Wei commander, Zhang Shoufeng, whose courtesy name is Changgeng, who abandoned the army.

Doctor, we are now working in Dingxihou Mansion."

Then he introduced them to them: "And this one is even more remarkable. He is the Hua Tuo whom I mentioned to you before. His skill with swords and Gui is unparalleled in the world. Chen Shigong, courtesy name Yuren. This gathering also wants to give you

Recommend each other."

After introducing them, Xu Chunfu began to introduce the medical officers of the Tai Hospital. Everyone greeted each other and they were acquainted.

After everyone got acquainted, Xu Chunfu said: "There are three important things for this gathering. Let's discuss them together. First, the examination for doctors at Santai Hospital in early March. The content of the examination can be discussed first. Second, Brother Dongbi is about to

Going north, many of you here know him or have heard of him. We can give him a warm welcome first. I believe there will be doctors from all over the world who come to Beijing in advance, and we will treat them together. The third one is the recommendation of the medical officer of Taiyuan Hospital in autumn.

Choice, this matter has been taking a long time, so we can put it aside for now. Okay, let’s discuss these three things. If you have anything to say, feel free to say it.”

"Ignoring everything else for now, let's first decide on the content of the doctor selection exam on March 3rd," Jin Ying said.

"Since this is the examination for doctors in Taiyuan Hospital, we just follow precedents," Meng Fenglai said.

"No, in the past, people with superb skills were selected, and they were selected nationwide, and the number of people was only a few dozen. Now, the number of people selected from four places is even hundreds." Gong Tingxian said.

"The scope is smaller and the number of people is larger, so the difficulty of the question should naturally be lowered." Yang Jishi also said.

"Northern medicine is not as good as southern medicine. If we can test with the same standards, I'm afraid those who pass will fail." Yu Yingkui said immediately.

"I also agree that the difficulty should be lowered to suit the candidates." Zhou Liangzong agreed.

"I propose to give them a thorough understanding first, and then come up with questions." Zhang Tingyu suggested.

"After I finish reading the questions, I will be very pressed for time to write the questions. Maybe there are not enough words." Liu Yude thought for a while and said.

"It's not that simple yet. Come up with a few more sets of questions in advance, and then adjust them according to the actual situation after you have completed the research." Wu Wenbing said.

With your words and my words, everyone has come up with many practical methods.

"Then what book should I use to write the question? Does it need to be limited?" Wang Men asked about the scope of the question.

"Our Taiyuan Hospital only has major courses such as "Suwen", "Difficult Classics", "Pulse Jue", and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases". Let's discuss again, should we publish it in these five books, or choose one of them?

Come out?" Xu Chunfu said.

"I think they can all take the exam to see which one they are good at, and then they will be paid." Gong Tingxian said.

"Yes, I also said before that we need to ask more sets of questions, ranging in difficulty. We will give them a thorough review at that time, so that we can decide which set of questions to ask." Liu Yude agreed and continued.

"Okay, let's divide the work now," everyone agreed, and then started busy.

Although Chen Shigong and others wanted to get in, they never found the opportunity. At this time, they met many imperial doctors and began to gather together to talk in detail, so they joined in.

Chen Shigong walked towards Liu Yude and his party, who were currently focusing on the sores. Chen Shigong was overjoyed, so he stopped here and listened.

On the other side, Yang Jishi brought acupuncture, and the massage team was there to discuss.

The Gong Tingxian group discussed around the Dafangmai group.

Everyone is discussing in full swing, and more and more topics have been set. One of the purposes of this gathering is about to be achieved.

Taiyuan Hospital is originally a national medical administrative institution and a royal medical unit. It is responsible for national medical education, talent examination and selection, worship of famous doctors, and the appointment, removal and dispatch of medical officers.

Medical education and talent examination selection are familiar matters that cannot be more familiar. It was naturally easy to discuss, and it was quickly formed. There are three types of difficult, medium and easy examination questions, with a total of 33 examination questions in 11 subjects.
