Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

"Yes, the imperial hospital not only provides royal medical treatment, but also is open to the public like the traditional Chinese medicine hospital. This can not only bring generous income to the imperial doctors, but also consolidate their medical skills and serve the royal family in the best possible condition." Fan Zheng Again.

A group of imperial doctors couldn't help but breathe. Although they had official status, their salaries were not high. They had long been jealous of the generous treatment of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. If the imperial hospital could be opened to the outside world, wouldn't they gain both fame and fortune? There is no longer any resistance to positive reform.

"At the same time, in his third year, the Imperial Doctor did not study medical skills at the Imperial Medical Bureau. Instead, he practiced in the Imperial Hospital with the Imperial Physicians. The Imperial Physicians taught by words and deeds. Only when the Imperial Physician's knowledge and actions are integrated can he train qualified doctors for the medical family."

Fan Zheng threw out the most popular internship system for later generations of doctors, and at the same time explained why the imperial doctors only studied medical skills for two years at the Imperial Medical Bureau.

"What a man who teaches by words and deeds, integrating knowledge and action!" A group of imperial doctors praised him highly.

The Taiyi Bureau only teaches the doctors medical knowledge, but there is a huge difference between memorizing medical books and actually practicing medicine. If the doctors can practice with them for a year and witness a large number of cases and treatments, they will definitely be able to practice medicine on their own as soon as possible and become a doctor. Good doctor.

"This method is great!" Qian Yi nodded.

He has been the imperial physician for many years, so he naturally knows that the most lacking thing among all the imperial physicians is the guidance of famous teachers. Even when the three outstanding and talented doctors founded the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, they still had to spend a lot of money to hire three old famous doctors to help them.

"As for the Imperial Medical Office, it is far from enough to just uphold the responsibilities of the Hanlin Medical Academy. If we and other doctors want to prosper, we need to take the initiative to assume more responsibilities." Fan Zheng said with a wave of his arms.

"Not enough?" All the Hanlin medical officials looked at each other. They were doctors. How could they really do what Fan Zheng shouted at the gate of the Imperial Medical Bureau, asking doctors to become the seventh department in the imperial court.

"Workers can become the Ministry of Industry on their own, why can't doctors?" Fan Zheng said proudly.

The mouths of all the imperial doctors twitched. The Ministry of Works was the six divisions of the imperial court that existed since ancient times. Doctors were dispensable and marginal in the imperial court.

Fan Zheng looked at the imperial doctors and naturally knew what they were thinking. He sneered and said, "Don't belittle yourselves. Doctors are one of the oldest schools of thought. What they are responsible for is the safety of people in the world. Many difficult and miscellaneous diseases remain unsolved, the plague is raging, and the terrible pot belly disease and gall disease in the south are commonly known as big neck disease, also known as drinking sand and water. What is the cause and how to treat it? And..."

Every time Fan Zheng mentioned a disease, everyone couldn't help but look a little more ashamed. As the strongest doctors in the past, they were helpless to do anything about it.

"No! Any disease can be prevented and cured as long as the source of the disease is found. After the reform, the Imperial Medical Office will send doctors to study these difficult and complicated diseases to help the world and benefit the people all over the world."

"In addition, there are witch doctors and witches in the world who use the name of ghosts, gods, talismans and water to harm the people. This is also the responsibility of doctors!"

"People in the world would rather believe in the blessings of Buddhism, Taoism, ghosts and gods than doctors' medicines that can save their lives. Doctors need to reflect on this matter."

"Kaifeng City's medical city policy is a good recipe, and it is the responsibility of the Imperial Medical Office to promote it to the world."

"Many diseases are transmitted through the mouth. The safety of food in the world and the hygiene of many restaurants and public places require the supervision of our doctors."

..............................

Fan Zheng's every item made all the Imperial Medical Officers breathe heavily. The imperial medical offices in the past dynasties only wanted to please the royal family and seek fame and fortune by treating noble officials, but they did not expect that doctors could do so much. many.

"I'm really just a vegetarian." Qian Yi said with a complex expression. In contrast, Fan Zheng is simply more suitable to be the imperial physician than him.

If Fan Zheng's vision was followed, the Imperial Medical Office would be extremely powerful, and there might not be a medical department set up above the imperial court in the future. At that time, they would be the greatest contributors to the medical family.

Suddenly, when all the imperial doctors looked at Fan Zheng again, they no longer had the contempt and dissatisfaction they had before, but were replaced by respect.

Fan Zheng couldn't help but smile proudly in his heart as he looked at the excited doctors.

Today's doctors only fight among themselves for one-third of an acre of land, but they don't know that only by making the pie of the medical family bigger can the medical family flourish.

………………

Soon, when the new Imperial Physician Cheng Fanzheng handed over the memorial to reform the Imperial Academy of Medical Sciences, the entire Chui Gong Hall was in an uproar.

Fan Zheng was truly audacious. The conservatives in the Manchu Dynasty were in power. Fan Zheng secretly turned into a forensic doctor and established a hospital of traditional Chinese medicine. Now he openly changed the law in the imperial court. It was simply a provocation to their bottom line.

"Fan Zheng is so bold. The Imperial Medical College is an ancestral institution. On your first day as the Imperial Medical Officer, you actually made reforms without permission. Have you ever put the Empress Dowager in your eyes?" Zhao Tingzhi immediately seized the opportunity and attacked Fan Zhengdao. .

This time, even Fan Chunren was quite speechless. His nephew was really a troublemaker. Whether it was the first day he took office or the reform, he violated court taboos.

Fan Zheng said proudly: "When it comes to the depth of understanding of doctors, Fan is the only one in the world. The medical profession has been weak for a long time, so it is imperative to transform into a forensic doctor. Moreover, this reform has been unanimously approved by all the imperial doctors. .”

"Unanimous agreement?"

All the officials couldn't help but be dumbfounded. However, when they looked at the expansion of enrollment, the addition of three years of schooling in the Imperial Medical Bureau, and the opening of the Imperial Hospital to external medicine, each of these was beneficial to the Imperial doctors. No wonder they all agreed.

"The imperial physician has his own salary from the imperial court. As an official, how can he practice medicine for profit?" an official from the Ministry of Revenue seized the excuse and attacked.

Fan Zheng sneered and said: "Not all the income from medical practice in the Imperial Hospital is reserved for the imperial doctors, but other doctors need to deal with various difficult and complicated diseases. The funds required every year are at least tens of thousands of dollars. I wonder if the Ministry of Civil Affairs is willing to allocate funds?"

Fan Chunchun, the minister of the Ministry of Hubu, immediately pulled the officials from the Ministry of Hubu back and said like a snake: "The Ministry of Hubu has no objection."

Just kidding, as long as the Ministry of Finance does not let the Ministry of Finance pay, the Ministry of Finance can pretend to be deaf and dumb in anything.

Su Shi, the Minister of Rites, came out and said: "Fan Imperial Physician, the Imperial Physician is a royal physician, and it is not in line with etiquette to treat the common people."

Although Su Shi managed well with Fan Zheng, he, as the Minister of Rites, could not ignore the royal etiquette.

Fan Zheng retorted: "Mr. Su, you don't know something. Medical skills are also wasteful in play but good in diligence. Nowadays, the medical reform is booming and medical skills are advancing rapidly. The imperial doctors have been living in the palace for a long time and have not been exposed to more advanced medical skills, which is not conducive to royal treatment."

The Ministry of Rites was defeated.

"The Hanlin medical officer is an imperial doctor, but now he has established a royal hospital to treat ordinary people. Isn't it competing with the people for profit?" Lu Dafang took the moral high ground when he made a move. .

"The Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine is not afraid of any competition and welcomes competition!" Fan Zheng said directly, "Furthermore, I have established the Taiyuan Hospital. It and the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine are like spears and shields. They compete with each other and prove each other's medical skills. Only then can medical skills be greatly improved. Let the whole world benefit from this..."

"Uh!" Lu Dafang was speechless. He forgot that the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital belonged to Fan Zheng.

Zhao Xu, who was sitting on the throne, was also thoughtful. Fan Zhengbian, a forensic scientist, also took care of both the old Imperial Hospital and the emerging Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. Isn't it very similar to the struggle between the old and new parties in the court, which inspired him a lot.

"Fan Taicheng, why don't you just become a forensic doctor? You even have to take care of the people's food?" Zhao Tingzhi objected once again unwillingly.

According to Fan Zheng's reform plan, especially the Imperial Medical Office, which is related to all aspects of people's livelihood, it is like adding a seventh department to the court. The power of the Imperial Physician Cheng is even greater than that of the Imperial Censor Zhongcheng.

Fan Zheng said proudly: "Everywhere in the world where there is a disease or where there is a possibility of disease, it is under the control of doctors. This is the responsibility of doctors."

All the officials in the court were silent. Although there was nothing wrong with what Fan Zheng said, the doctors were originally a marginal role in the court. Now they suddenly became the seventh department in the court, which made them extremely uncomfortable.

"The Hanlin Medical Officials Hospital is indeed of no use, so I ordered the Imperial Physician Cheng Fan Zheng to reform the Hanlin Medical Officials Hospital!"

Although Empress Dowager Gao did not like the reform, she suddenly felt angry when she thought of the incompetence of the imperial doctors in the past dynasties, which had kept the emperors from knowing about the poison of cotton oil.

With Empress Dowager Gao's final decision, the Manchu officials suddenly had no objections and looked at the imperial physician, Fan Zheng, with complicated thoughts.

Everyone understood that Fan Zheng had established a traditional Chinese medicine hospital and a medical hospital one after another, effectively unifying the medical community.
