Chapter 34 Chapter Thirty-Four

"Heaven's Holy Order" - "Medical Disease Order", article "female doctor": all female doctors, take 50 maidservants from official households who are over 20 years old and under 30 years old, have no husbands or men and women, and have sexual knowledge and wisdom. For resettlement, there are four people in charge, and they are guarded by the gate.The doctor of medicine taught the method of relieving miscarriage, sores, wounds, acupuncture and moxibustion, all according to the text.Female doctors who are successful in the field will be tested every quarter, and the doctor will be supervised and formally tested at the end of the year.Limited to five years.

This morning, Long Baiyue took the letterhead to report to the Imperial Medical Office. She walked outside the palace gate and was stopped by the guards only to find out that the place she was going to was not in the palace, but a separate place specially set up for training female doctors. School of teaching.A guard specially led Long Baiyue to the place not far from the palace, and four eunuchs were specially assigned to guard them.The purpose is to ensure the protection of morality for men and women, because after the completion of the medical career, the female doctor will enter the palace to serve the royal family. At this time, of course, she must be completely separated from the high-spirited students of the Imperial Medical Office and the students of the Medicine Garden!

In fact, in Long Baiyue's view, these considerations are all superfluous.According to the regulations of this dynasty, the students of the imperial medical office and the students of the medicine garden are between sixteen and twenty years old, and the female doctors are all between twenty and thirty years old, and they are all older than them.What's more, the maidservants who are unmarried at such an advanced age and are willing to be sent out by the lords are mostly old and poor-looking.Under such circumstances, it is even more difficult than going to heaven to have any ambiguity.

Take the medical girls who entered the Imperial Medical Office this season as an example, among the ten in the same batch, they were tall or shriveled, and their looks were fierce or dull. Except for Long Baiyue, only one woman looked gentle and elegant. That woman really didn't look like someone over twenty years old, her complexion was as smooth as fat, her expression was timid, and her brows were full of sorrow.Birds of a feather flock together, Long Baiyue couldn't help but move closer to her, and after two or three words of conversation, the two became acquainted.The girl was cute and sweet, Long Baiyue asked her name, her name was An Shiyu, just like her.

"What a nice name." Long Baiyue praised with a smile. An Shiyu frowned, and turned pale: "This name is not good... My original name was Siyu, but my master changed it to Shiyu. My sister should just call me Yu'er in the future." "Why do you recognize me as your elder sister?" Long Baiyue smiled, she was very happy to be called sister Yu'er, she looked around and whispered, "I'm actually under twenty." Yu'er was taken aback, thinking that she had met someone with the same fate as her own, but looking carefully at Long Baiyue's expression, she was relaxed and comfortable, so she could only reply: "I'm not even twenty..."

It turned out that they were all lying about their age!Long Baiyue laughed: "Then we have to figure out our age before calling them sisters. I'm almost nineteen, how about you?" "Under seventeen..." Long Baiyue was stunned, and looked at Yu'er's face again—the brows were slightly frowned, forbearance of cowardice.Such a beautiful character is sent out by the master to study medicine, I'm afraid there is something hidden: "Then I am the older sister, the younger sister... but I came here voluntarily?" Upon hearing this, Yu'er immediately rolled down her cheeks with two lines of tears: "Why is it not voluntary, thanks to coming here, otherwise I would have been sold into a brothel."

Long Baiyue could probably guess what happened to Yu'er.Most likely, the master or the young master took a fancy to her, which caused Lei Ting, the mistress of the house, to be furious and wanted to sell her into a brothel. At this time, the imperial court recruited female doctors, or she begged or the master took pity on her, so she changed her age and came here.She saw this kind of thing a lot when she was in Baiyuefang. Compared with those sisters who were really sold into brothels, Yu'er was considered lucky. Alas, there are so many shameless men committing crimes in the world, and their ignorant jealous wives act as accomplices to oppress the most innocent and weak.Long Baiyue couldn't bear to ask any more questions, and patted Yu'er on the shoulder. After the two of them calmed down, they went to the doctor's residence to settle their burdens according to the eunuch's arrangement.

The female doctors slept in Datong bunk, so Long Baiyue naturally put the bunk next to Yu'er.After packing up their things, they changed into uniform narrow-sleeved short shirts and floor-length skirts, and went to the medical hall where they were teaching to sit down together, waiting to meet with doctors. The Imperial Medical Office has four disciplines: medicine, acupuncture, massage, and cursing, each of which has a doctor of medicine to teach students.The methods of sores, wounds, and acupuncture that Long Baiyue and the others want to learn belong to the three disciplines of medicine, massage, and acupuncture respectively, so the doctors who teach them are concurrently served by doctors from various departments of the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Several doctors and doctors came to meet the students, looked at the ignorant women in the room, and frowned impatiently: "Are there any literate among you?" Long Baiyue immediately raised a hand, and smiled at the doctors and doctors who were looking at her. The smile itself was only meant to show goodwill to the teacher, but the corners of the eyes and the brows were full of obsequious obsequiousness.The doctors and doctors gave a disapproving "Yes" and looked at Yu'er beside Long Baiyue.It turned out that Yu'er also raised a hand timidly. "How much do you know?" Seeing that Yu'er was low-key, the doctor asked.

"Recognize a little..." Yu'er's voice became lower and lower. "Well, the content of medical books is difficult. We won't ask you to read them. The homework is dictated. You just follow us and learn how to do it in practice." "Yes." The female doctors answered obediently. "However, this still requires an exam. In five years, if you still fail to pass, you will be sent back." After the doctor finished speaking, he motioned to Long Baiyue and Yu'er, "You two who can read, come out with us. " Long Baiyue and Yu'er followed the doctors to another room, followed the doctor's instructions, sat down anxiously and obeyed orders.A medical doctor said: "You two can read and write, which is very rare among official servants. You will lead this batch of medical girls, and you will be responsible for managing some trivial matters and leading them to learn from us."

Have you booked your seat so quickly?Long Baiyue thought to herself, it seems that she performed well.At this time, another doctor opened a medical book at hand, pointed out some words and asked them to recognize them. "Pingyi, Zuoxue, Qimen, Jiuliao." Long Baiyue could recognize each word, but couldn't understand the meaning when combined.She could only read the words to the doctor, while Yu'er on the other side only knew half of them. She blushed and hesitated for a long time, and finally shook her head and flinched. At this time, the doctors and doctors looked at each other, and they were already surprised.All the maids who study medicine are the last ones eliminated from the official family. Long Baiyue is beautiful and intelligent. Which official family can recommend her so generously?If even she was eliminated, how stunning would the maid who was not sent be? "Who recommended her?" A doctor asked.Another medical doctor saw the famous assassin Long Baiyue handed over, looked through the roster according to the clues, and said: "It's Master Zi Mian of Si Tianjian." "That guy!" The medical doctor on the far right seat seemed to be very familiar with Zi Mian, "It's not enough for me to be impoverished by the curse, and now I'm sending another maid like this to show off?" "Well, let her be handed over to Mr. Yizheng," the young doctors and doctors finally agreed with this idea, "We can teach simple ones, but it's too inferior to let her learn with others." So three days later, the Imperial Medical Office opened a small treatment for Long Baiyue and sent her to Mr. Yizheng Yuan to teach alone. Long Baiyue heard from someone that Master Yizheng Yuan, the Chief Medical Officer of the Imperial Medical Office, was known for being rigid, and he taught people very harshly.So when she was sitting alone in the room waiting for Master Yuan, she was trembling and very afraid.Even when she was in Baiyuefang, she also felt that serious and old-fashioned old men are the most difficult to serve - he is obviously serious, but he loses his temper after being teased by girls, why do you still come to drink flower wine? The sliding door of the room was pulled open with a bang, and Doctor Yuan came in. He closed the sliding door before walking in. The regular footsteps were not light or heavy, as if each step had a measured length and weight. What a rigid person.Long Baiyue took a deep breath and raised her head, meeting Mr. Yizheng face to face. "Huh? Dragon Oiran?" "Hey... feel the pulse... master?" The two of them froze at the same time.Master Yizheng Yuan's upright and serious old face immediately distorted and turned red, he was speechless and speechless.Long Baiyue also held her face, stammered and said in a trembling voice: "Master Pulse, so you are really a medical officer?!" Speaking of the allusion of the pulse-taking master, all the prostitutes in Baiyuefang know it.Two years ago, the emperor's beloved concubine suffered a miscarriage and collapsed, and she almost died. All the imperial physicians worked together for three days and three nights, and finally snatched the concubine back from Lord Yan and returned it to the emperor.When Longyan Huanyue was celebrating together in the capital, a group of medical officials came to the Firework Lane in Baiyuefang to comfort him, including the doctor Yuan in front of him. Of course, at that time he never mentioned his identity. He was sitting at the table in casual clothes very seriously. A prostitute pointed at the person who came with him and asked him: "Is the master also a medical officer?" "Of course not, I don't serve as an official." Master Yizheng Yuan categorically denied it.Unexpectedly, after three cups of yellow soup, Master Yuan blushed, grabbed the wrist of the prostitute who was holding the pot, and laughed: "Come, come, let me take your pulse..." Next - it's a joy to see, hear and ask... The medical officers raised their heads to save the imperial concubine. In fact, they saved themselves from the ghost gate and received the emperor's pardon. They are also like soldiers who have returned from a narrow escape. They need to vent their nightmares frantically in order to regain Own.So they fooled around in Fireworks Lane for three days straight, and Master Yizheng Yuan was no exception. During the days when he was fainting and waking up, all the top names in brothels learned his tricks: first, be serious to relax your vigilance, a few drinks The pitifully small amount of wine immediately pounces on you when you are not prepared, regardless of whether you are selling body or art, just touch, pinch, look, smell and inquire, and keep yelling: "Come, come, come... Here to help you feel the pulse..." This time, no one thought he was a medical officer, they only thought that he was a sanctimonious old man who used alcohol to play crazy, so he gave Master Yuan, who was anonymous at the time, a nickname - Master Pulse. Long Baiyue also suffered a small loss because of underestimating the enemy back then. Master Yizheng Yuan met her and knew her. Afterwards, he also heard from his colleagues that he was very lucky and took advantage of the oiran.So now recalling the only three ridiculous days in my life, the expressions on an old face are intricate and all-encompassing. Compared to Mrs. Yuan's embarrassment, Long Baiyue's mood was much more stable, so stable that she couldn't help but start to make small plans in her heart, popping up ghost ideas one by one. "Master Yizheng, do you want to help Bai Yue feel the pulse?" Long Baiyue really pulled up his sleeve and put his right hand in front of Master Yuan, asking with a wicked smile. "Just laughing and laughing..." Master Yizheng retreated in a sweat, scolding in his heart why his disciple was so ignorant, and even recommended Hua Kui to take revenge on him, "Old man... ah no, I just think the name is familiar, I didn't expect it to be the oiran, why did the oiran become a medical girl?" "It's simple, let's be good." Long Baiyue's bright eyes were kind, and she smiled coquettishly, "From now on, my lord, don't call me your servant Long Huakui, just call me your servant Bai Yue." How can this look like a good one? Master Yuan wiped off his cold sweat, thinking of his fierce dominatrix, and knew that Long Baiyue had held the handle of his drunken disorder: "Baiyue...ah no, Doctor Long Girl, being good is the right way of life, you made the right choice, and this old man will definitely teach you medical skills carefully." "Hey, my lord is old, and there are many trivial matters in the Imperial Medical Office. This servant dare not let you work too hard..." Long Baiyue approached Mr. Yizheng Yuan with a smile like a flower, "This servant knows that I have a lot of schoolwork. Medicine, acupuncture, massage, cursing, etc. You need to be reminded by adults. In order to relieve your worries and troubles for adults, and not bother other doctors and doctors in the Imperial Medical Office, this servant recommends the number one cursing and ban in this dynasty—— Sir Sitianjian Zimian to teach your servants. Are you willing to be slaves? , Maid, Yin, Recommended?!"
A few days later, Zi Mian and Ming Chuangchen stood on the deck of the new boat in Zifu Lake, looking at the carriage of Mr. Zheng Yuan from the Imperial Medical Office parked on the bank with some bewilderment.Just when they were wondering, they saw the curtain on the carriage lifted, and a figure they were all too familiar with jumped out. "Ms. Long, the doctor of the imperial medical office, was recommended by Master Yuan, and came to see Master Zi Mian." Long Baiyue finished his salute under the boat, raised his head to look at Zi Mian on the deck, the brilliance in his eyes was just like this afternoon. The sunshine in the sky is full of cunning; the red lips are slightly curved up, showing a trace of naughty provocation. While the two of them were staring at each other, Ming Chuangchen ran up and down the boat in excitement.With a tense face, Zi Mian took the recommendation letter from the Imperial Medical Office from her apprentice, scanned the envelope, and said in a calm voice, "Since it is recommended by Master Yuan from the Imperial Medical Office, please invite the medical girl to board the ship." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left, ignoring the dancing disciples who ran off the boat, and entered the cabin by himself. The door of the alchemy room was shut heavily, and in the dim light of the room, Zi Mian took out the letter and unfolded it: "This autumn, the chief female doctor is recruited, the Baiyue of the Long family, who is talented and savvy. This doctor is trying to cultivate, so as to make up for the regret that the harem medical women are weak in skills and poor learning. However, they are too complicated to handle. Sigh In addition, he ordered the best of each subject to be professors. Currently, there is no suitable candidate for the Department of Curse and Prohibition in the Imperial Medical Office. I would like to ask Master Zi Mian not to worry about the school's differences, and teach on his behalf. At the beginning of the Shen Dynasty, I went to the mansion to ask for advice, and I returned it at the beginning of the You Dynasty, so I beg you to be generous..." The letter was rubbed into her hands before she finished reading it, and Zi Mian leaned against the door and raised her face, trying to calm down her increasingly violent heartbeat.Looking around with flickering eyes, he sighed helplessly, and finally couldn't help coughing, his long and narrow eyes were bent, and he smiled softly...
