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

"Wei Chen Fan Zheng has met the official family!"

In the palace, Fan Zheng was once again on duty.

After organizing the marriage between Pang Jizu and Lian'er, eliminating the estrangement within the medical family, and solving the internal problems in the medical family, Fan Zheng reluctantly said goodbye to his beloved son and wife, and went to the palace for duty.

"Oh! It turns out that Fan Taicheng still remembers his position in the palace, and he is willing to come to report today." Seeing Fan Zheng entering the palace, Zhao Xu, who had been away for a long time, snorted coldly.

If he were an ordinary person, he would wish to hang around him every day in order to leave an impression of diligence in his heart.

Fan Zheng, on the other hand, was better off. He first left the palace and went to the disaster area for a period of time. When he returned to Kaifeng City, he met Li Qingzhao who had given birth. After that, he stayed at home with the child but did not come to the palace for duty. This made Zhao Xu very angry. .

Fan Zheng chuckled and said: "Don't blame the officials. Doctors once said: I hope that people in the world will be free from illness, so why bother to put medicine on the shelf to make dust. The reason why the ministers have not entered the palace for a long time is because the officials and the harem are in good health. This is When everyone is happy, officials should be happy."

Zhao Xu looked at Fan Zheng's laziness and couldn't help but laugh angrily.

Zhao Xu grew up in the palace and was very strictly disciplined by Empress Dowager Gao. He had no friends at all. His only companions were his brothers. Fan Zheng could be said to be his first real friend, and he was always a friend. The friends who helped him were also his confidants on the road to reform.

He regarded Fan Zheng as a friend and confidant, but Fan Zheng was so lucky that he forgot his friends when he saw sex. When he had a wife and son, he forgot about his friends and just ignored him for a long time.

"If this is not the case, if you dare to miss work again, be careful that I will deduct your salary!" Zhao Xu said arrogantly.

Fan Zheng suddenly looked panicked and said: "The official has mercy on me. I still have a wife and children to support at home, and I still expect my salary to buy milk for my children. I don't dare to go down to the official position anymore."

After the performance, the monarch and his subjects couldn't help but look at each other and laugh. It turned out that the unfamiliarity of not seeing each other for several months had long since disappeared.

"Speaking of milk, the Li family's maid has been very popular recently. Even I heard of her name in the palace." Zhao Xu changed his words.

Although Fan Zheng has not entered the palace for several months, news about Fan Zheng has repeatedly reached his ears. In particular, the milk business is inextricably linked to Fan Zheng, so Zhao Xu has naturally heard about it for a long time.

Fan Zheng did not hide it, but said bluntly: "Doctors advocate breast-feeding babies. Hiring wet nurses may cause cross-infection, and ordinary people can afford it. It happened to be that Fan Zhi was born, and he also needed milk feeding, so he gave the advice Lian'er opened a dairy farm to supply the needs of babies around Kaifeng."

Zhao Xu was not surprised by Fan Zheng's confession. Everyone could see that Fan Zheng was the driving force behind Fresh Milk's popularity.

Not to mention the relationship between Lian'er and the Fan family, everyone knows that without Fan Zheng's low-temperature sterilization method and Fan Zheng personally taking the lead in feeding his children milk, not to mention the full help of veterinarians, Lian'er's There is no way that fresh milk delivery can become popular in Kaifeng City in a short period of time.

Zhao Xu naturally did not think that Fan Zheng was using the maids to make money and using servants to do business. From his perspective, he could naturally see that once fresh milk was popularized all over the world, it would have many benefits for feeding babies, which would benefit the country. A great thing that benefits the people.

"You did a good job. Breastfeeding is indeed much better than having a wet nurse. If you add fresh milk as a supplement, the baby will definitely grow up healthily." Zhao Xu said with deep feeling.

Not to mention others, he himself had personal experience. The two princesses of Zhao Xu were breastfed and had strong bodies and rarely got sick. Only Liu Jieyu was spoiled and coquettish at the beginning, and chose to let the wet nurse feed her instead of listening to Fan Zheng's medical prescription. Now, Prince Zhao Mao's body is obviously not as strong as his two daughters.

"Don't worry, officials. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's body has been checked by Fan. There is nothing serious. In the future, he will take more deer milk from the palace to supplement his health. There will be no serious problems. However, Wei Chen reminds the officials that deer milk is more nutritious. , but it can also carry various sources of disease, and it needs to be disinfected at low temperature before it can be taken by the prince." Fan Zheng reminded.

Now Fan Zheng has already made the low-temperature disinfection method public, and it is not difficult to implement it in the palace.

Zhao Xu nodded in agreement.

When Fan Zheng saw this, he took the opportunity to say: "I would like to inform the officials that fresh milk is not an ordinary commodity, but is related to the health of babies in the Song Dynasty. We cannot attach too much importance to it. Wei Chen believes that fresh milk must be placed under the supervision of doctors. The sterilization and quality of fresh milk must be randomly checked to prevent counterfeiting and shoddy products that are harmful to the health of babies."

Doctors have microscopes that can detect various sources of disease in fresh milk, so they are the best choice to supervise the fresh milk industry.

"As it should be!"

Zhao Xu nodded without hesitation.

"The officials are wise!" Fan Zheng bowed solemnly.

Zhao Xu waved his hand and said: "As long as it is beneficial to the people of the Song Dynasty, I will naturally not refuse it. And if you don't come today, I will prepare to summon you. There is no news from Tubo yet."

Zhao Xu was worried. Tubo was the first target of the Song Dynasty to test the Great Roundabout Strategy. If he could not capture Tubo, he might be in vain to destroy Xixia, regain the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and even unify the world. flow.

Now it has been nearly a year since Tubo sent troops. From spring to winter, the Song Dynasty fought from a distance. One more day outside would bring more risks.

Fan Zheng consoled him: "The officials should be relieved for the time being. Tubo is different from Qingtang. Qingtang also has low-lying Hehuang Valley, while Tubo is all plateau, and the plateau reaction is more intense. Our army's progress is slow, and it is also to fight steadily. , adapt to the plateau climate as soon as possible.”

"But it's winter now. Tubo is located on a plateau, and winter is the coldest time. I heard that the cold on the Tubo Plateau is comparable to the bitter cold in Mobei. If anything happens to our army..." Zhao Xu was worried. road.

Tubo was quite far away from the Song Dynasty, and military information was not conveyed in time at all. Coupled with the cold winter and heavy snow blocking the roads, military reports had been cut off for a long time, which further aggravated Zhao Xu's worries.

Fan Zheng said confidently: "Don't worry, officials. Today's Tubo is no longer the Tubo that could compete with the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The Song army equipped with cotton armor and new thunderbolts is no longer the one that was repeatedly defeated in the past." The Song Army, fighting in winter, has an advantage. Have the officials forgotten the battle between the Song Dynasty and Qingtang?"

Zhao Xu nodded slightly. He naturally knew that the battle between the Song Dynasty and Qingtang was a sudden attack in winter, so he quickly won the battle, captured Qingtang City, and established Huangzhou and Shanzhou.

"I hope it is as Fan Taicheng said!"

Zhao Xu naturally knew that having cotton armor and delaying it until winter would be beneficial to the Song Army. Zhao Xu knew better that the Song Army had an advantage on the Tubo Plateau. However, he had been worrying about gains and losses. Now he heard Fan Zheng's advice in person. Zhao Xu's originally restless heart miraculously became at ease.

Fan Zheng bowed and said: "In the reign of Emperor Taizong, Prime Minister Zhao Puzeng said: China is safe, and the barbarians have surrendered. If you want to fight against foreigners, you must first make peace at home. But Fan thinks that the Song Dynasty wants to defeat Liaoxia , then we must eliminate our worries. Tubo and Xixia are squabbling. If the threat is not eliminated in advance, if a fire breaks out in the rear in the future, the good situation may be ruined."

Zhao Xu nodded in agreement. This time he went south to attack Tubo. In addition to experimenting with the roundabout strategy, it also eliminated the worries of the Song Dynasty. After all, the southwest had been in constant rebellion since ancient times, causing countless troubles to the Central Plains dynasty.

"I have made complete preparations. I believe that the soldiers of the Song Dynasty will not let me down!" Zhao Xu looked to the southwest with firm eyes.
