Zhu Xiurong was given the opportunity to study and live outside the palace.
Zhu Youtang let her out of the palace with confidence, arranged for her to be protected by royal guards, and sent many palace maids to take care of her, and let her conduct a series of studies outside the palace, probably to let her daughter You can get familiar with Ming society earlier.
This is mainly due to Zhu Youtang's trust in Zhang Zhou. It is precisely because Zhang Zhou arranged everything for Zhu Xiurong that he can rest assured to let his daughter come into contact with many things that are different from those of the daughters of the royal family in the past. contact stuff.
"Are these automatic? Are they driven by this? How do they rotate?"
"That thing is so high, can I go over and have a look?"
p>
"If these are used together, will it cause imbalance? Such as collapse or something? I want to go there."
Zhu Xiurong was outside the palace. In addition to her daily studies, she You will also see a lot of technology that is different from this era.
Especially when she walked out of the capital for the first time and arrived at the Western Mountains, she was very happy and saw rows of tall siege equipment. She kept asking questions.
Unfortunately, many of her questions could not be answered by anyone present.
Zhang Zhou did not accompany her to Xishan. This time she only stayed in Xishan for a short time. She could stay for one night and would return to the capital the next day.
This was her study tour, and the person who served as her tour guide and commentator was Ning Tong, who had nothing to do after returning to Beijing and was arranged by Zhang Zhou.
"Your Highness, it's very dangerous here, and we don't know the principles of many things." Ning Tong respected Zhu Xiurong very much.
She was originally very afraid of contact with the royal family.
It was Zhang Zhou who insisted that she have more contact with Zhu Xiurong, probably because he wanted her to gradually get out of the shadow of being framed by Queen Zhang.
But what happened that time was that people from the Taiyuan Hospital were taking advantage of Queen Zhang, and the Taiyuan Hospital was being rectified. However, Zhang Zhou did not make it too clear to Zhu Xiurong about the details.
The reason why Zhang Zhou only started to target the people in the imperial hospital now was mainly to avoid being said that he was avenging his personal revenge... It was also time to clean up. How good were the three generations of imperial doctors in the Ming Dynasty? I don’t know, Zhang Zhou knows it best.
Seeing that the 18th year of Hongzhi was approaching, Zhang Zhou could only make some changes as a person who had experienced history in order to avoid many things from happening again.
Zhu Xiurong said: "These are all made by Mr. Zhang, right? He is very powerful. If others were to complete it, it would not be possible for decades. In just a few years, he has made it possible." It's not easy to do all this."
Ning Tong said: "I don't know what the princess means."
"That's not right. From the time he arrived in Beijing, It’s probably only four years, but he must have gone through countless efforts to prepare for the exam. Mr. Ning, do you know Mr. Zhang’s past?”
Zhu Xiurong began to ask Ning Tong about Zhang Zhou’s past. matter.
Ning Tong couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This little girl is really a ghost. She seems to know everything, but also seems to know nothing.
When you see novel things, you are as innocent as a child, but when you talk, you sound like a little adult. Now you are asking about Zhang Zhou from her?
Did she see something?
Ning Tong said seriously: "My daughter is not very clear about Cai Guogong's affairs."
"Isn't Mr. Ning a member of Cai Guogong's family?" Zhu Xiurong said immediately , making Ning Tong feel very embarrassed.
Why does this little girl know everything?
"Mr. Ning, please don't get me wrong. Mr. Zhang didn't tell me this, it's just that I accidentally learned... Well, how should I put it... Alas!"
At this point, Zhu Xiurong himself felt a little embarrassed.
It’s like I accidentally exposed someone else’s privacy, and I feel a little guilty.
Ning Tong said: "My daughter was indeed ordered by Cai Guogong to come and accompany Her Royal Highness. Because of some things earlier, luckily Cai Guogong helped me."
"I know, it's Mrs. The people at the hospital falsely accused you of using medicine to harm people, and said it was harmful to your mother." Zhu Xiurong said as if to show his kindness, "I know it's the people from Taiyuan Hospital who are framing you. They don't see your kindness. Mr. Ning often gave the palace medicine. How could someone here have bad intentions when treating illnesses?"
Ning Tong said slightly embarrassed, "Your Highness, do you still remember?"
Zhu Xiurong smiled and said, "How could that happen? Don’t you remember? On the contrary, the prescriptions they prescribed seemed like quacks, so I didn’t trust them. Just like when I had acne before, Mr. Zhang saved me with medicine. It's a life-saving grace."
"Yeah." Ning Tong didn't know what to say.
It’s a little difficult to talk to this little devil.
After all, given her status, I am not qualified to be on an equal footing with the princess.
Zhu Xiurong immediately turned his attention to Xiao Zhangjin who was following Ning Tong, and asked with a smile: "Come here, Zhang Jin, is your surname Xu? Can you treat diseases? You and me Mr. Ning must have been studying for a long time, right? Did Mr. Zhang ask you to study with Mr. Ning? "
Jang Geum is still a bit shy when facing a princess from the Ming Dynasty. cramped.
This girl is almost the same age as her, why does she seem to know so much more than she does?
I am just a little singer from North Korea. I used to sing for people to make money for my boss. Later I just served my boss. Now I am working as an apprentice and preparing to treat people in the future... Now here comes another princess who is asking questions...
Zhu Xiurong said: "Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm. If you can learn it, you can teach me. If I can't learn it, you can teach me." How about treating me? I think your medical skills must be very good, because you are talented in this area..."
"..." Jang Geum looked embarrassed.It was awkward, but he could only look at his master, Ning Tong.
Ning Tong said: "Your Highness Princess, Jang Geum is from North Korea. She is usually not good at words."
Zhu Xiurong sighed: "You can make friends now, and there will be more in the future." Wouldn't it be better if you talked to me? Why should you be so reserved? I heard Mr. Zhang said that. Did Cai Guogong tell the princess about this?"
"Yes." Zhu Xiurong nodded affirmatively, "I said he did, but I haven't heard of it. After dinner today, can you sing it to me? Okay? I want to listen to your Korean tunes. I won’t let you sing them in vain.”
“No…I can’t.” Jang Geum doesn’t know why. , but she still felt that this was ridiculous.
You actually asked the princess of the Ming Dynasty to sing to a little singer from a vassal country?
This is not disrespectful at all, it is simply trying to humiliate yourself, or even making fun of yourself.
Zhu Xiurong asked curiously: "Is there anything wrong? I also like singing. I heard that Mr. Zhang's theater can make a lot of money a year, and he will definitely run it. In fact, I also want to go, But every time I say it, my father refuses. I can only hope that Mr. Zhang will give me a chance to visit before I return to the palace." Ning Tong said: "Your Highness. , that’s not the place you should go.”
“It’s okay. Actually, I want to go up and sing. Is my voice bad? Uh... I can’t open my voice now. I’ll clear it up in the evening. After that, I will sing to you. Take me there to see some good things."
After Zhu Xiurong finished speaking, he was about to go to the next attraction.
Ning Tong was slightly embarrassed.
However, he found a small hand reaching over and grabbing the hem of his clothes.
Obviously little Jang Geum is more afraid of the lively little princess in front of him.
But Xiao Jang Geum is afraid of the same thing as her, they are afraid of the princess's identity and status...
Ning Tong is thinking in her heart that this little princess is approachable and not so much. With all the twists and turns, she must have a pure heart, right? Maybe in the future, if we become more familiar with each other, we will be able to know what she is thinking in her heart.
……
……
At night.
In the theater, the stage is very lively.
Zhang Zhou met Yang Peng in a private room. It was nearly a month before Yang Peng showed up in front of Zhang Zhou again after Yang Peng claimed to be ill. Now Yang Peng already knew that he was not on the list of people going to sea. So Only then did I dare to come out with confidence.
"My lord, this time I checked Tai Hospital and found out that the accounts of the past twenty years have been very confusing. The three generations of imperial doctors in the Ming Dynasty did not sort out the prescriptions of Tai Hospital clearly, and there were even major problems. The embezzlement and embezzlement...More than a dozen former and current imperial doctors have been found to have engaged in corruption and perversion of the law. In serious cases, the amount of embezzlement and embezzlement exceeded one thousand taels..."
As Yang Peng spoke, he presented the results of the investigation into Tai Hospital to Zhang Zhou.
Many people have been sent to prison, and everything was found out after interrogation. However, the emperor did not take action against the imperial hospital before, because he also wanted to give these people who served the royal family a chance.
But later, even Zhu Youtang himself discovered that if he didn't rely on Zhang Zhou to get sick, the illness would be delayed forever. As a result, even the emperor lost patience.
Yang Peng said: "Your Majesty has made it clear that you will review the people currently in the imperial hospital. Those who are capable can be kept, and those who are not capable can be dealt with as they should. The meeting will also screen people from the private sector. Those who have the ability to enter the palace... His Majesty also said that there will no longer be any restrictions on the selection this time. There is no restriction on whether he is from the Xinglin family or his past background. As long as he has the ability and can be recommended by you. "
Yang Peng said, with a bit of envy in his eyes.
Now the emperor fully trusts Zhang Zhou even in the matter of curing diseases and saving lives.
This shows that in the future, anything in the Ming Dynasty can only be advanced if it is approved by Zhang Zhou, otherwise it will fall into a deadlock.
"My lord, Liu Wentai has the biggest problem in the Taiyuan Hospital now, but Wang Yu cannot escape the blame. As for Zhonglan, because he has retired and returned to his hometown, he has recently sent people back to check. ...But there are rumors that he has died of illness..."
"Besides, there are a few others, what do you think..."
Yang Peng only waited for Zhang Zhou Go punish these people.
Zhang Zhou said: "We can't let the palace be without a doctor, and I don't have to do everything personally, right?"
"That's it." Yang Peng said with a smile, "If it's just a minor illness, it's okay to rely on them, because all the prescriptions used are mature prescriptions, but now I'm afraid... if there are any difficult and complicated diseases, relying on them is a bit... In the past two years, even the capital's middle school When dignitaries are sick, they are reluctant to seek help from the imperial physician."
Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "Why, the people at the imperial hospital have lost the trust of others?"
"Aren't you asking questions knowingly? ? Everyone wants to ask you to go back for treatment, but not everyone has this opportunity... But now they have no better way, but there are still some prescriptions that are said to be the ones you listed, and they are spread around the capital, and many people They are all in use, but according to the investigation by the East Factory, many of them are far-fetched, and they are all a group of gangsters who are deceiving you under the guise of you."
Yang Peng couldn't help but feel excited when he said this. He sighed, "Perhaps only if you personally come out and sort things out in Xinglin can everything be restored. But I'm afraid that you, your noble, are busy with things, why don't you think about it and let... capable people around you come out?"< /p>
Yang Peng’s words were clearly alluding to Ning Tong.
Because it was Ning Tong who had previously represented Zhang Zhou in diagnosing diseases for the court.
It’s just because Ning Tong has taken too big steps. Firstly, because her medicine is effective, the people in the palace gradually trust her. Empress Dowager Zhou and others always go to Ning Tong when they get sick. Later, Ning Tong I also want to be among the peopleHe expanded his business and even opened his own pharmacy to treat the female relatives of high-ranking officials in the capital...
This was when the people from the Chitai Hospital collaborated to target him.
"Who are the people in prison in Taiyuan Hospital now?" Zhang Zhou asked.
"Wang Yu, Liu Wentai." Yang Peng said, "According to our investigation, these two people were the ones who framed Mrs. Ling..."
"Oh, I It's not because they framed anyone, you should understand, right?" Zhang Zhou said.
"This is natural. They are the most unscrupulous in the imperial hospital. They even squeezed money from the merchants of traditional Chinese medicines in the capital, monopolized the trade of medicinal materials, and passed off inferior medicines as good ones. They even suppressed the doctors near the capital, forcing them to They had to leave the capital... Some Xinglin families were framed by them..."
When Yang Peng said this, he was even a little angry, "It's too many to mention. It's not the first time they have used this method. . It’s our family’s fault, but in this matter, it’s you who will uphold justice.”
……
……
Yang Peng left.
The list remains with Zhang Zhou, and it seems that Zhang Zhou will not need to take action in the subsequent interrogation and punishment.
He just throws out an introduction. The emperor will be more concerned about this matter than him. It is related to the imperial hospital and the interests of the royal people. After all, the royal people still rely on this group of people. Treat diseases... But this group of people don't have much experience in actual diagnosis. After all, there are still only a few people in the royal family.
It is said that their medical skills are superb, but in practice, they may not be as good as a barefoot doctor among the people.
They are mostly from professional backgrounds and can be regarded as the ones who set the rules for the Ming Dynasty’s pharmaceutical industry, but they cannot be called people with the most superb medical skills.
"Master, here is the water for washing your feet."
Zhang Lushui appeared at the door, holding a basin.
After Xiao Jang Geum followed Ning Tong, Zhang Lushui seemed to be alone in the theater, and he did not have the same momentum as before.
Because many Korean musicians in the theater were assigned to different theaters, Zhang Lushui could no longer show off his power.
Zhang Zhou said: "Put it down, you can leave first."
Zhang Lushui glanced at Wang Mingshan standing aside, with jealousy in his eyes.
But what was helpless was that this was the Ming Dynasty, not North Korea, and she had no way to compete with the real wife around Zhang Zhou, so she could only leave in despair.
