Chapter 543 Disadvantages of Chinese Medicine Books [5]

With Yan Song's obsession with collecting urine from celebrities in the world, of course a great doctor like Li Shizhen cannot be let go.

Let's get closer, doesn't the Emperor Jiajing standing next to us still need a miracle doctor to recuperate his pregnancy and return to the man's dian~ peak?

Yan Song talked to Lu Bing, Lu Bing looked at Yan Song in surprise, then glanced at the young man, not understanding what this seemingly ordinary young man had to do with the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty.But with his special~wu experience, this young man doesn't look like a spy at all, and even Yan Song has spoken out to release this young man, why should Lu Bing be such a villain?

"Let him go." Lu Bing waved his hand, and Jin Yiwei handed Li Shizhen, who was tied up in a big way, to Yan Song, who ordered him to be sent back to the room immediately.This pavilion has to personally recuperate after the matter, no, it is to ask this person.

Jiajing's attention has been on the whale, and he is busy trying to find a way to lift this huge whale and go to Tianjin Wei for a cruise...

Well, definitely not for pretense, never!

The people of Daming have never heard of such a big whale, and they have never seen it before. As a treasure bestowed on them by the gods, it is a sign of good luck. How cool is it?

Jiajing even couldn't wait, and gave this incident of encountering a blue whale a majestic nickname "Blue Whale Comes to North Korea".

But when the migrant workers were about to carry the blue whale up according to the emperor's order, they encountered a problem.

Who can move a 120-ton blue whale?

This worried Hai Rui who was in charge of this matter.

However, Yan Song had a way, and soon found the great mathematicians Descartes and Cheng Dawei, and asked them to find a way.The two mathematicians really deserved to be engaged in science. They quickly made a mathematical model diagram, analyzed the force, discussed it with carpentry craftsmen, and quickly tinkered with a huge cart.

This cart is as big as a yard, and it is pulled by 300 horses, which can load the 120-ton whale into it and walk.

Fortunately, this is the Tianjin Haihai construction site, and there are plenty of large tools.Yan Song called in several pulley block cranes designed by Cheng Dawei, and hundreds of migrant workers chanted and hoisted the blue whale and placed it on a giant cart.

In front of the giant cart is the emperor's driver. Emperor Jiajing sat on the driver's driver very flamboyantly, and drove towards Tianjin Wei triumphantly.

Jiajing is a bit of a pity, the weather is hot in July at this time, the whale can't be stored for a long time, and it can't be brought to Beijing to play tricks, so it can only be enjoyed a little in Tianjinwei.

Otherwise, if it can be sent to Beijing and enjoy the cheers of Beijing, then it will be enough.

Just when Jiajing was fascinated leisurely, Yan Song was having a friendly talk with Li Shizhen in his sedan chair.

For professionals like Li Shizhen and Xu Xiake, Yan Song treated them very courteously and courted them carefully.

Li Shizhen was terrified at first.

He only wanted to study whales, but he didn't expect to cross the red line and offend the Jin Yiwei who was beside the emperor. He was almost arrested as a spy and thrown into prison.

This made Li Shizhen, who was usually daring and courageous, terrified.

Fortunately, he met Yan Song, the chief assistant of Ming Dynasty who had been famous for a long time.

At this time, Li Shizhen was looking at Yan Song with curious eyes.

Li Shizhen was born into a medical family. His grandfather was a herbalist doctor, and his father, Li Yanwen, was a well-known doctor at that time, and he was once a member of the imperial hospital.Li Shizhen studied medicine with her father at the age of 23, and became famous as a doctor.He traveled all the way around Daming, and heard Yan Song's name, but there were mixed reputations. Qingliu officials and gentry landlords yelled at Yan Song as a traitor, but the lower class people and people of insight had their own opinions, which made Li Shizhen very curious about Yan Song.

Now, Yan Song saved his life again, otherwise, just the crime of trespassing in front of the emperor with wrong intentions would be enough to ruin his life.

Li Shizhen looked at Yan Song who was flipping through the Compendium of Materia Medica, and said cautiously: "Old Yan Ge, can you understand this book?"

Yan Song looked at it again unwillingly, finally gave up, and returned it to Li Shizhen, and said with a dry smile: "I don't understand! Haha!"

Li Shizhen smiled and said: "But I feel that Yan Ge always changed his attitude towards me after reading this book, right?"

Yan Song called failure in his heart, but he was noticed by others. The effect of saving lives was greatly reduced, and his acting skills still need to be sharpened in the future.

He coughed: "However, I can see that this "Compendium of Materia Medica" is a good book with endless merits, and it records tens of thousands of herbs from all over the world. I know you, but after reading your book, I feel that you are a rare talent in Daming, so I made an exception to save you!"

Li Shizhen is extremely smart, seeing Yan Song pretending to be aggressive, she just smiled slightly, very gracious.But the life-saving grace that Yan Song expected, the grand occasion of accepting the head and worshiping, did not appear.

This Li Shizhen really has a strong character.

This guy was once recommended by the king of Chu, entered the Daming Tai Hospital, and served as a judge in the Bapin Tai Hospital.It's a pity that in the Tai Hospital, because of his youth and vigor, he couldn't understand the methods of those imperial doctors, let alone Jiajing who was busy practicing Taoism and taking pills all day long, and self-destructed his body. After only staying for three years, he abandoned his official position and returned to his hometown.

It can be seen that Li Shizhen is indeed a person with integrity and character.

Yan Song said in his heart that it's a small sample, and the elders of this pavilion don't believe that we can't accept you!

Li Shizhen took back the Compendium of Materia Medica, thanked Yan Song, and got off the car.

Yan Song asked: "Where are you going?"

Li Shizhen cupped her hands and said: "When Shizhen was practicing medicine, she found that doctors had headaches because of the mixed names of medicines, and they often couldn't figure out the shape and growth of medicines. In the past, although repeated explanations were given in herbal books, some authors Instead of doing in-depth investigation and research, I copied it from books, so the more I explained, the more confused I became, and it was full of contradictions, making people confused."

Yan Song nodded, Chinese medicine and sage books are the same, they both like general descriptions.

Li Shizhen further said: "For example, the medicine [Polygalera], Tao Hongjing, a medical scientist in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, said it was a small grass, like ephedra, but with a green color and white flowers, but Ma Zhi in the Song Dynasty thought it was like Daqing, and blamed Tao Hongjing for not knowing Yuanzhi at all. Another example is the dog ridge medicine, some say it resembles 萆薢, some say it resembles plucked 葜, and some say it resembles Guanzhong, and the opinions are very inconsistent."

He paused, and then said: "Under the inspiration of my father, I realized that "reading thousands of books" is necessary, but "traveling thousands of miles" is even more indispensable. Therefore, I will not only "collect Baishi", but also interview Sifang, Shen~ru actually conduct investigations. I swear to go all over the mountains and rivers of Daming, investigate these medicines, find out the sexual characteristics of all medicines, and write this "Compendium of Materia Medica"."

He smiled: "Thank you, Mr. Yan Ge, for saving your life. If there is nothing else, Shizhen will leave~"

Li Shizhen has never liked climbing dragons and phoenixes. Although Yan Song has saved his life, he does not intend to stay with Yan Song and become a royal doctor, otherwise why would he give up the position of judge in Tai Hospital?
