Doctors in the late Ming Dynasty

Yu Yaori interrupted: "Their Taizhou school is the most deviant."

It turns out that Duke Wensu of Zhao was none other than Zhao Zhenji, and together with Yang Shen, Ren Han and Xiong Guo, he was known as the "Four Great Masters of Sichuan".

Gengshu Wang Yangming is also a Taizhou school, and is as famous as Yan Shannong, Li Zhi and other Taizhou school generals.

His disciples include not only the emperor, but also courtiers, thousands of imperial disciples, and apostates such as Deng Huoqu.

Only then did everyone realize that he was from the Taizhou School, so everything was normal.

Zhao Taiding doesn't care what others say, or he is already used to it.

"I want to learn from the Taizhou School, but I don't know when Mr. Li Zhuowu will come to Beijing."

Zhang Jiebin still remembers that his father wanted him to become Li Zhi's disciple. Of course, there is also Xu Wei, who should be coming to Beijing soon.

Zhao Taiding said: "In our Taizhou school, we do not reject anyone who comes, and we pay attention to teaching without distinction."

Just as they were talking in low voices, Xu Wei spoke for the third time: "Congratulations to the twenty-eight doctors, from now on you will be the third-class doctors of Taiyuan Hospital."

Everyone was in an uproar, what are you doing? How come a good entrance exam has so many twists and turns?

Xu Chunfu was also helpless. Although Xu Wei was the envoy of the hospital, he had not been in charge of affairs for ten years. He was the general secretary of the General Affairs Department and was in charge of the affairs of the hospital.

The General Affairs Department was an official agency in the Ming Dynasty that was in charge of the internal and external affairs. It was a lowly and powerful position. The affairs were usually complicated, and it rarely took care of the affairs of the imperial hospital.

The day before yesterday, I heard about the recruitment of Tai Hospital. I came here to inspect it for two days. Last night, I suddenly overturned the previous proposal and made this incident.

But it was hard for everyone to say anything. After all, Xu Wei was the well-deserved number one person in the Taiyuan Hospital, a dignified envoy, not to mention the Secretary of General Affairs and General Affairs. I heard that he was going to be promoted again.

Zhang Jiebin was very excited and said in admiration: "Did you know? The envoy is a contemporary descendant of the Xu family, a prominent family in the East China Sea, which is the first family in the medical field."

Yang Jian asked in surprise: "Is the Xu family in Donghai famous? Why is it the number one medical family?"

"Alas, masters are lonely. God will give me a rival!"

Zhang Jiebin was speechless. Facing Yang Jian who knew nothing, he had no desire to continue talking.

Naturally, Zhang Jiebin was not the only one who knew this. Yu Yaori told him: "The Xu family of Donghai was originally a family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. After the Jin Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties, Xu Xi was the prefect of Puyang. One day, he gave water to a Taoist sect and obtained the "Bian Que Mirror Sutra"

, and from then on the medical tradition began, which has lasted for thousands of years!"

Of course, this is just what they think lasts for thousands of years. In fact, it has been eight generations since Xu Xi and nine generations since Xu Wei. As for whether there is a break in the middle, only the Xu family knows.

From the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Sui Dynasty, from the Yuan Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty, the Xu family was indeed passed down from generation to generation, but it lacked the inheritance of the Tang and Song Dynasties.

But the Xu family of Donghai is an anomaly among the northern and southern clans, the only one of the world's medical clans, and its legacy continues to this day. This is also a fact.

Although it cannot be compared with thousand-year-old families such as the Confucius family in Qufu and the Zhang family in Longhushan, it is still the most prominent family in the medical field. The medical lineage of the Xu family will continue until the Qing Dynasty, and the inheritance was not discontinued until the end of the Qing Dynasty.

"If you don't take the medicine if you don't take the medicine, you can't take the medicine", which is enough to show how much people at that time respected the doctors of the world. However, there are very few doctors who are more than three generations of the world. The so-called "the rich cannot be more than three generations" can also be applied to doctors.

So it is not difficult to understand that Zhang Jiebin is very excited about this. For example, only two generations of his Zhang family have been practicing medicine.

Everyone was filled with admiration after hearing this, and they all wondered what secrets the Xu family had that could be passed down for thousands of years.

"Don't be convinced. Although they are exempted from the exam, you still have the opportunity to enter the Imperial Pharmacy! You guys, take the exam well. I'll come back again."

After Xu Wei finished speaking, he left the Imperial Hospital and returned to the General Affairs Department.

One hundred and fifty-three people began to take the exam quietly, while 22 medical lecturers inspected the period.

Xu Chunfu watched for a while, then led twenty-eight people into the Medical Gate, passed through the long corridor, and passed the Xuanmen Platform. Instead of entering the lobby, he turned left and headed north.

"The organizational system of our Taiyuan Hospital is similar to the Confucian temple system. Confucianism has the Dacheng Hall, the Holy Temple, the Qisheng Temple, and the Xianshi Temple. Our medicine also has the Yaowang Temple, the Shenghui Hall, the Jinghui Hall, and the Xianyi Temple. Of course, there are temples in various places.

The names are different. The Xianyi Temple in our Taiyuan Hospital is called Jinghuidian!

For example, the medical school we just entered is also found in Confucianism, which is called Xuemen or Confucianism. I know that many of you have studied in Confucianism, and you must have also been to Zunjing Pavilion.

If I have nothing to do at the moment, I just want to take a look at the Zunjing Pavilion in our Taiyuan Hospital. We call it the library, but of course everyone is more accustomed to calling it the Medical Forest."

While Xu Chunfu was explaining, he also took everyone to the back of the north hall.

When everyone saw it, they were quite shocked. This library was larger than an ordinary Confucian school.

"Wei Confucianism is completely incomparable to this. I didn't expect that I, Zhang Jiebin, would study here. It's so great!" Zhang Jiebin couldn't help but sigh.

"This is the Medical Forest? Are there all books in it?" Zhao Taiding was also very surprised. His father had also served as a sacrificial wine minister in the Imperial Academy before, but the Zunjing Pavilion of the Imperial Academy was not so spectacular!

"Not all of them, the books are collected in the east building, the books are carved in the west building, and the books are copied in the middle building. The so-called learning from hiding in the east and engraving in the west will be useful to you in the future." Xu Chunfu said quite proudly.

Only then did Zhang Jiebin understand the meaning of his father's previous statement that "the difference between a firefly and a bright moon is the difference between Yiyi Hall and Taiyuan Hospital." He thought that Yiyitang was already grand enough, but he didn't expect that Taiyi Hospital was even more magnificent.

"Different from the Imperial College, the Imperial College focuses on teaching and is limited to the Four Books and Five Classics, so the library does not need to be large. Our Imperial Hospital bears the heavy responsibility of the rise and fall of medicine in the world, and it attaches great importance to learning and the inheritance of experience...

You go into the library and be quiet. Official Gong is inside at the moment. And he is doing something that will benefit the future, compiling and revising Mr. Gong's medical notes."

Xu Chunfu ordered, and everyone was in awe, this is a selfless contribution to his family's learning!

When everyone entered the east building, they did not see Gong Tingxian, but they saw Yu Yingkui. He was leaning on the bookshelf and facing the door.

Xu Chunfu asked: "Will Zicai have a future today?"

Yu Yingkui was looking at it enthusiastically and pointed to the east. Zhang Jiebin immediately ran over on tiptoe, shaking his head for a moment and turning back.

"Has Zicai left?" Xu Chunfu asked again.

"I already said it was over there. I don't know why I'm going there. Why do I ask?" Yu Yingkui got annoyed and turned around to lean on another row of bookshelves with his back to them. At this time, he was pointing in the west direction, which happened to be

Direction to the middle building.

Xu Chunfu smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Okay, you can go and read, and don't mess with the rest of the staff. I'll go to the middle building to see the Gong staff."

Everyone then dispersed, each looking for the book they liked and started reading it.

Zhang Jiebin casually picked up a copy of "Daguan Materia Medica" and flipped through two pages before putting it back and following Xu Chunfu quietly. He went down to the east building and then up to the middle building.

There were dozens of people writing something inside, but there was only one person he knew, and that was Gong Tingxian.

When I got closer, I saw several thick books stacked on the side. The one at the top had the four-character "Ancient and Modern Medical Review" written on it.
