Chapter 44 Resolutely demand to study medicine

This is simply unbelievable. I hold a book and think about it, but I was able to cure my illness. There is such a miraculous thing in the world? In fact, it was not a big deal that Miao Xiyong was cured of his own malaria. The biggest consequence of this incident was that it aroused Miao Xiyong's great interest in medicine. Because, this made Miao Xiyong start to doubt those so-called professors and experts in newspaper advertisements, do they really read medical books?Why can't they see me well after I've been sick for so long?How many patients like me are there in this world? Everyone lives in pain, but those so-called experts are complacently making a lot of money, but they can't cure our diseases!

It turns out that the true meaning of curing diseases seems to be hidden in these ancient medical books. As long as you study the knowledge here, you will understand the truth of curing diseases. Then, how many people in the world should benefit! This is the biggest achievement that Miao Xiyong obtained after he successfully treated himself, so he began to make a wish: I want to study medicine! Of course, my mother supports this matter, and it would be a good thing to be a useful person to the world! In this way, Miao Xiyong embarked on the road of studying medicine, and from then on, a famous doctor of traditional Chinese medicine was about to be born.

However, the process of learning is very hard. After finishing the medical books at home, due to the poverty of the family, there is no money to buy medical books, so Miao Xiyong had to go to other people's homes to borrow books to read. Who should I borrow it from?It turned out that a few streets away from Miao Xiyong's house, there was a family named Zhao. The family was very rich. No. 10, South Zhao Lane, Gucheng District, Changshu City, friends who are close can go and have a look), their family has a lot of books, and their son is Zhao Yongxian, who is also a scholar and loves reading very much. Yong has a common language, so Miao Xiyong often goes to their home to borrow the medical books he wants to read. I feel like I have found a treasure in this regard, and I am immersed in the sea of ​​books and learning all day long, "study and analyze deeply, cut and understand", "when I meet the understanding, I always take notes".

While Miao Xiyong is working hard to study medical books, let us spare some time to introduce Zhao Yongxian, the son of the Zhao family. This classmate became a Jinshi in the fifth year of Longqing (1571), and went to Beijing to be a seventh-rank official in the Hanlin Academy. Since then, he and Miao Xiyong have embarked on a different path. The brothers are famous all over the world. It turns out that the father of Zhang Juzheng, the chief assistant of the dynasty at that time, died. Zhang Juzheng was supposed to go home for the funeral, but Zhang Juzheng used the procedure of "seizing love" to let the emperor keep him instead of going home for the funeral. , this brother Zhao Yongxian wrote a letter with several others to impeach Zhang Juzheng. This incident caused a lot of trouble at the time. Finally, in the fifth year of Wanli (1577), five of them were sentenced to court sticks. Zhao Yongxian's court staff was sixty. He was a big fat man. When he was beaten, the flesh and blood on his buttocks flew all over the place. It is said that the biggest piece of flesh that fell off was as big as a palm. Then the strong wife of classmate Zhao Yongxian appeared. After returning home, I added some salt and made it into bacon. I want to leave it to my children and grandchildren to see how brave their ancestors were.

In fact, Zhao Yongxian's son is indeed not an ordinary person. His son was born when Brother Zhao Yongxian was not a Jinshi. His name is Zhao Kaimei. I think everyone looks familiar with this name. Zhao Kaimei who wrote "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" and "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber". In the field of Chinese medicine, the Yuanyou version of "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" printed in the Song Dynasty is called a "small script". Our Zhao Kaimei happened to see a set of small prints, which made him overjoyed, so he immediately borrowed it and reprinted it. Because the engraving is too close to the original, it is now commonly known as "Song version of "Treatise on Febrile Diseases". .

However, the original engraved small script of the Northern Song Dynasty seen by Zhao Kaimei disappeared after being reprinted and returned, and I don’t know where it went. The original one is only Zhao Kaimei. Today there are only five Zhao Kaimei books in the world. The best one is in China Medical University in Shenyang. It has not been sorted out and published. I am very worried. become eternal sinners. It is because of Zhao Kaimei that we can see the true face of the Song version of "Treatise on Febrile Diseases".
