Chapter 1601: Famous in History
Inside the Dragon Palace.
His Majesty Li Er thought carefully and finally made up his mind to implement Fang Jun's "Great War Department" strategy.
Only when the Ministry of War becomes stronger, centralizes and then divides military power, weakens the influence of family members in the military, and then gradually abolishes the military system of the government and implements a recruitment system, can this be a sure way to ensure that the Tang army remains loyal to the imperial power and returns to control.
Feeling sleepy gradually, His Majesty Li Er yawned, dismissed all worries from his mind, got up and returned to the bedroom, took off his coat and lay down on the couch.
The headache made him toss and turn, and he finally felt sleepy, but he heard Wang De's voice at the door: "Your Majesty, I have something to report..."
"Hoo!"
His Majesty Li Er stood up in a hurry, a feeling of depression condensed in his chest, which made him almost breathless. His temper became more and more manic, and he yelled angrily: "You old slave! If it weren't for the sky falling, If it’s a big deal, I’ll behead you!”
Wang De at the door was so frightened that he shrank his neck, his two legs trembled, he swallowed, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty... the imperial physician you sent to assist Sun Simiao in developing the medicine has reported..."
"Huh?"
His Majesty Li Er was stunned for a moment. Could it be that there is a new drug to treat malaria?
This is really a big deal!
He quickly got up and let the maid who walked in put her coat on him and said: "Hurry up and see me!"
"Here!"
Wang De bowed in response, took two steps back, turned around and left quickly.
By the time His Majesty Li Er endured his headache and drank another cup of ginseng tea, the two imperial doctors had already entered the hall under the leadership of Wang De. When they saw the emperor, they knelt down with a "pop" and shouted: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty! Thanks to Your Majesty for your great blessing, I am a humble minister. and others assisted Sun Simiao in developing a medicine to treat malaria. From then on, the world will no longer suffer from the evil of malaria. Hundreds of millions of people are grateful for your majesty’s kindness. Our great Tang Dynasty will last forever!”
When it comes to praising someone's virtues, the more cheesy the better.
Moreover, the successful development of a drug to treat malaria is indeed a major event that shocked the past and the present. From ancient times to the present, all dynasties have become pale when talking about malaria. Countless people have died of malaria. Many famous doctors and miracle doctors have been There was nothing that could be done about it, but it was ended in the Tang Dynasty. No matter how much we brag about it...
Sure enough, His Majesty Li Er, who was sitting on the brocade couch, was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Then he stood up suddenly and asked with a glare: "Is this true?"
The imperial doctor said: "It's absolutely true! We followed Taoist Master Sun to trial-produce several potions with different ingredients and weights, and treated dozens of patients respectively. Seven or eight of them have recovered. It can be seen that there must be medicines with similar ingredients and weights. Several groups of potions are produced The effect has been achieved and the malaria has been cured. Daochang Sun is leading his colleagues outside the city to conduct screening. Once the best formula is selected, His Majesty can immediately announce it to the world, and the terminal malaria that has been raging for thousands of years will no longer be a concern. "
"Hahaha..."
His Majesty Li Er looked up to the sky and burst into laughter. His heart was so happy that it was hard to describe. Regardless of the disrespect for the king, he jumped off the brocade couch with his bare feet, strode up to the two imperial doctors, bent down and stretched out his hands to help him up. With excitement on his face: "Okay, okay! You two have made outstanding contributions. This single achievement alone can save countless lives and leave your name in history!"
Curing malaria, what a merit it is?
It will definitely leave a deep mark in the annals of history. Being a doctor can be regarded as the highest achievement in life! Not only will they themselves benefit for life, this merit will definitely be passed down to future generations, and their descendants will benefit endlessly!
In comparison, what does it mean to have a huge family fortune and be promoted to a noble position?
As the host, even if Sun Simiao is just an ordinary doctor with a low reputation, this alone is enough to make him famous in history!
Not to mention that Sun Simiao's reputation as a "miracle doctor" has long been spread throughout the world, and he is known as one of the famous doctors with the highest medical skills and highest medical ethics after Hua Tuo, Bian Que, and Zhang Zhongjing?
It is conceivable that from now on, Sun Simiao's reputation will rise to an unprecedented peak. Even if he, the emperor, meets him, he must treat him respectfully as a distinguished guest. If he dares to be disrespectful in the slightest, he will only spread the word and be scolded by the people...
The two imperial doctors were also full of joy and said modestly: "Wei Chen and others are just helping from the side. We must not overdo it. Taoist priest Sun should be the first to take credit."
His Majesty Li Er only felt that the headache had been cured without medicine at this moment, and he felt extremely happy all over. He laughed and said: "Daozhang Sun is the first to do it, but without your help, the development will definitely not be successful so quickly. There is no need to be modest. Am I someone who is stingy with rewards? ”
I was thinking in my mind that although Sun Simiao was the first to do it, Fang Jun also contributed a lot. Without Fang Jun's reminder, who would have thought that the most common artemisia annua could actually treat terminal diseases such as malaria?
Wherever poison appears, there must be an antidote within seven steps. The way of heaven and earth is based on checks and balances. It is indeed magical.
*****
Two imperial doctors were sent back by His Majesty Li Er to assist Sun Simiao in selecting the optimal formula so that it could be distributed throughout the world and benefit the world.
After the two imperial doctors left, His Majesty Li Er's excitement had not passed. He paced in the palace with his hands behind his hands. He thought that these achievements were comparable to Dayu's flood control and Emperor Qin's building the Great Wall to resist the Xiongnu. The more he thought about it, the more proud he became. , the corners of his mouth could not help but gradually grin...
Wang De on the side glanced at His Majesty's expression, and was secretly amused in his heart. No matter how serious the king is, he can't be proud of himself in the face of such achievements...
However, before His Majesty Li Er could return to the palace to sleep peacefully, another chamberlain came to report that Li Junxian was back.
His Majesty Li Er was in a good mood at the moment and was no longer angry. He laughed and scolded: "Do these guys think my palace is a vegetable market, coming and going? I'm afraid that the East and West markets are not open yet, but You want to come here to disturb people’s dreams.”
Having said that, I naturally ordered someone to tell Li Junxian to come in.
Li Junxian entered the hall in a nervous mood, organizing his words in his mind, thinking about how to say something so as not to make His Majesty the Emperor furious, but he never expected to see the smile on the corner of the Emperor's mouth...
What's going on?
Li Junxian was confused. None of the things tonight could make people feel happy. Why did the emperor seem to be in a good mood right now?
I feel increasingly uneasy...
"The fifth lady came to the palace twice tonight, but she didn't want me to have a good sleep, so she came here deliberately to cause trouble?"
His Majesty Li Er was in a good mood and made a rare joke.
But he almost scared Li Junxian to death...
"Five Niangzi" is his nickname. After he became an adult, few people called him that. He always felt that this nickname was too outrageous. How could any gentleman be called this? Who dared to call him that, who was he in a hurry with, no one called him over and over again, and everyone gradually forgot about it.
But I never thought that the emperor would say something like this today...
Li Junxian was so frightened that his mouth went dry, and he quickly knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Majesty is aware that unless the general wants to enter the palace and disturb your majesty's sleep, there are many generals who dare not make independent decisions. If you don’t have the guts to come and ask your Majesty for instructions, please forgive me..."
His Majesty Li Er looked at the frightened Li Junxian and felt bored. He waved his hands and said, "You are really boring. I was just joking. Why should you be so serious?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Junxian and Wang De almost cried...
You are the emperor, and your golden words can guide the universe. Who dares to take your words as a joke?
Seemingly realizing that he had gone too far, His Majesty Li Er coughed dryly and asked, "Tell me, what else do you want to tell me?"
Li Junxian took a breath and said: "Sun Wu, the captain of the school guarding the city at Yanping Gate, has been arrested and brought to justice. After being tried by the Fang Shilang, it was indeed related to the spy. However, this person is a descendant of the eldest son's family after all, and he will not dare to do anything. Special, so I ask for your Majesty’s instructions.”
What do you ask for?
Please ask if you want to continue the interrogation.
Since he is a descendant of the eldest son's family, what will happen if the eldest son's family is involved after the interrogation?
Everyone knows that even though His Majesty is now alienated from Changsun Wuji, His Majesty still does not forget the love between Queen Wende and his wife, and has always been kind and generous to the Changsun family.
No one dares to make an independent decision on such matters, otherwise the crime will be determined in the end. Do you want the emperor to deal with the Changsun family or not?
So Fang Jun and Ma Zhou took the opportunity to escape, but Li Junxian couldn't escape and could only take over...
His Majesty Li Er's face gradually darkened, and the joy brought about by the successful development of the potion slowly dissipated.
The eldest grandson’s family......
His Majesty Li Er's expression changed, and he was silent for a long time before he said: "Send Changsun Wu to Changsun's house. You go there in person. Go now and say..."
After a pause, he sighed and continued: "No need to say anything. The auxiliary machine is a smart man and should understand what I mean."
He did not believe that Changsun Wuji could betray him with the intention of overthrowing the Tang Dynasty.
After all, he is still a person who misses his old love...(End of Chapter)
