Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 48: The Imperial Pharmacy is the Imperial Academy of Physicians

Wang Dingxin said with a smile, he had been pestered by Zhang Jiebin a lot during this period. It was because he rarely met strangers and learned the Qimen Dunjia technique.

"Brother Wang still knows the goods, haha, just wait and see." Zhang Jiebin laughed and stared outside the hospital from time to time.

Under Zhang Jiebin's earnest gaze, no one came outside the hospital. Everyone looked at the sky and looked at him suspiciously. Zhang Jiebin was a little embarrassed. The exam time was coming soon, why didn't anyone come?

With the sound of a gong, everyone took their seats, and Zhang Jiebin ignored others and sat upright.

Tables and chairs are all placed in the courtyard. There were a lot of people here this time, so some tables and chairs were borrowed from the Ministry of Rites and Qintian Prison next door.

"Welcome all medical officers, okay, let's distribute the questions." Xu Wei, the hospital envoy, stood up and said, and dozens of medical officers from Taiyuan Hospital began to distribute the test questions.

Everyone was surprised. They didn't expect the hospital envoy to call them doctors, and they didn't expect that the speech would be so simple.

Zhang Jiebin felt uncomfortable holding it back, his mouth moved slightly, and he didn't know what he was saying.

When I got the test questions and looked at them, I was a little dumbfounded. Everyone was dumbfounded, and the place exploded with buzz.

1. Jueyin disease

When will the Jueyin disease be resolved? How long will it take to recover?

2. Chest and hypochondriac pain

If you have rashes all over your body that look like erysipelas, and the itching and pain are constant, what is the symptom? What medicine should be used to treat it?

3. Cell resistance

If you are in the sixth or seventh month of pregnancy and have swelling all over your body, fullness of breath, and abdominal distension, what is the symptom? What medicine should be used to treat it?

Four, fetal wind

If a baby eats less and has abdominal distension, facial atrophy, muscle weakness, and mental fatigue, what is the symptom? What medicine should be used to treat it?

……

8. What is the difference between eye elixir and needle eye?

If the upper and lower eye cells, inside and outside the skin and flesh, suddenly become swollen, shaped like jujube beans, hard and painless, and the skin color remains unchanged, what is the disease? What medicine should be used to treat it?

Eight questions in a row, covering all aspects, are not subject-based assessments as mentioned before, and the difficulty of the questions is obviously increased.

Seeing everyone talking, Xu Wei stood up again and said: "Seriously, this is not an entrance exam, but an exit exam for the Imperial Hospital. If you don't want to take the exam, please leave your seat!"

This time he said a little more. After he stepped back, Xu Chunfu also stood up and explained: "Children, please be patient. Our entrance exam is coming later. This is an opportunity given to everyone by the envoy.

Those with excellent grades will be admitted to the Royal Pharmacy."

Some people became excited because they knew what the Royal Pharmacy represented, but more people were at a loss.

Seeing that most people did not understand the Imperial Pharmacy, Xu Chunfu raised his voice and said: "The Imperial Pharmacy is the Imperial Academy of Physicians!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was excited and beaming with joy.

And then a voice came out: "I, Zhao Taiding, withdraw from this exam!"

Zhang Jiebin got excited when he heard this, and said excitedly: "That's him, the one who ruined the scene."

Xu Wei said nothing and watched Zhao Taiding stand up and walk aside.

"I, Zhang Jiebin, withdraw from this assessment."

Zhang Jiebin was not to be outdone, and was the second to stand up. In fact, he didn't care whether he entered the Royal Pharmacy or not. He just thought Zhao Taiding was cool, so he followed him out.

With two people taking the lead, the third person soon stood up: "Yu Yaori will not participate in this exam."

Zhang Jiebin looked at him in confusion, obviously not knowing who he was. When he approached, he asked: "Where do you come from, and are you here to play football?"

"Same as you!" Yu Yaori said calmly, and then stood beside Zhao Taiding.

If there was anything else to say here, several people stood up at the same time.

It is Zhao Fengxiang, Wang Tingfu, Cui Yuanyu, Liu Ji, Song Pei and Yang Jian.

"Zhao Fengxiang..."

"Wang Tingfu..."

"Cui Yuanyu..."

"Liu Ji..."

"Song Pei..."

"Yang Jian..."

After the six people reported their names, they said in unison: "I will not participate in this exam!"

Xu Chunfu smiled when he saw this. Xu Wei, the court envoy, had no expression on his face and just nodded slightly. The six of them walked to Zhang Jiebin and stood next to them.

Others started talking about it, and soon eighteen more people came forward, officially disciples of the Yin Sect.

"Liu Mengsong..."

……

"Zhou Zongyue..."

……

Eighteen people, after reporting their names, said in unison: "None of us will participate in this exam!"

"I, Chen Shigong, quit!"

Eighteen people later, Chen Shigong also stood up. It wasn't that he didn't want to enter the Imperial Pharmacy, but it was because his sword skills were too appalling to serve as a doctor in the palace.

After that, no one came forward. Zhang Jiebin counted the people standing and then the people sitting. He was very surprised and said: "It's strange! Why is there one more person?"

Yang Jian asked: "Why is there an extra person!"

Zhang Jiebin said: "There are twenty-eight of us, and there should be one hundred and fifty-two people left in the field. How come there is one more person when you count?"

When Yang Jian heard this, he counted the numbers and said after counting, "It's one hundred and fifty-three. Did you make a mistake?"

"How could it be? Forty-six people from Beijing, 42 from Henan, 48 from Shandong, and 40 from Shanxi. Plus me, Brother Chen, and these two, there are a total of 180 people. If we don't go, we

Of these twenty-eight people, there are still one hundred and fifty-two left. There is obviously one more person in the field!"

Zhang Jiebin told him one by one, and then started to look for them one by one to see who had sneaked in!

Yang Jian also started to look for him. Before he finished reading a few words, he heard Zhang Jiebin exclaiming: "How could it be him?"

"Who?" Yang Jian asked curiously.

"Linchuan Tang Xianzu, doesn't he want to take the scientific examination? Why did he come here?"

Zhang Jiebin saw it right, it was Tang Xianzu. Because he felt that there was no hope for Chinese style this time, he visited the hospital four times. Hearing about the medical examination at Taiyuan Hospital, he came to join in the fun.

Yang Jian didn't know Tang Xianzu and asked, "Is he very powerful?"

"If you are a good candidate, you are expected to be a Jinshi. Do you think it is awesome?" Zhang Jiebin said with a smile.

Knowing that the person in the crowd was Tang Xianzu, he stopped caring about it and started chatting with Yu Yaori again.

"What do you mean by being the same as me? Shouldn't you be the same as him?" Zhang Jiebin was very surprised, why would he be the same as him? He obviously came to play like Zhao Taiding!

Zhao Taiding said: "He is also from Shaoxing!"

Zhang Jiebin was stunned. He didn't expect to meet a fellow countryman. They were similar in age and both studied medicine.

"Then where are you from?" Yang Jian asked, but he was not as shocked as Zhang Jiebin.

"I come from Shu, and I'm from Neijiang." Zhao Taiding said with a cupped hand.

Zhao Fengxiang asked: "I wonder who you are, Mr. Zhao Wensu?"

"It's my father!" Zhao Taiding said.

Zhao Fengxiang was very surprised and said: "I heard that Duke Zhao Wensu passed away last year. Could it be that the rumor is wrong?"

"Last April..." Zhao Taiding shook his head, his face full of sorrow, unable to say any more.

Hearing this, everyone had questions in their minds, so why did you, Zhao Taiding, go to the capital to do this instead of observing your filial piety at home?

"My father's last words were that three months of filial piety is enough, and no descendants are allowed to observe filial piety for three years."
