Chapter 14 Chapter Fourteen Reunion

Chang Jin sincerely helped Chang De, and gradually became familiar with medical skills.The hands that once picked and washed vegetables took care of the herbs, and the hands that once prepared food stroked the patient's body.At night, I read all kinds of medical books, enriched theoretical knowledge, and got in touch with various cases. Changde has a deep knowledge of detoxification of poisonous weeds and silverfish, and is good at treating tooth decay and sores.Her medical skills gradually spread, and the Jeju prison camp was crowded with patients who came to see the doctor every day. In order to treat the local people, Taizu once issued a decree to set up a hospital in each province, and set up doctors and medicine men.At that time, the most important position was the "teacher", who not only commanded and supervised the subordinate doctors and the herbalists responsible for collecting herbs, but also was responsible for mining medicinal materials, identifying them and handing them over.In the ninth year of Chengzong's reign, the medicine man was changed into a full-time staff of medicinal materials, the hereditary system was implemented, and handymen were abolished.The remaining medicinal materials after being handed over remained in the prison camp for folk treatment.This system has not yet taken root in the Jeju area, where Changdeok is not only the concubine of the judge, but also the duties of a doctor and a doctor.

Changdeok, who is good at treating tooth decay and scars, is well-known not only in Jeju Island, but also in Seoul.Changde is also famous for using silver hairpins as a tool in the treatment of tooth decay.Silver is a very useful metal for checking for toxicity and for killing bacteria.However, the wit and flexibility of using the silver hairpin on the head as a healing tool cannot but be admirable. In the spring of the next year, Changde went to Hanyang to treat diseases at the invitation of Hanyang scholar-bureaucrats.When Changde was away, the patients continued to come day after day.So Jang Geum began to treat independently, although he was a little nervous, but with the medical skills he learned during this period, he was still able to deal with it calmly and calmly.

Most of the people who come to see a doctor because of toothache are elderly people, and most of them have tried various folk remedies, such as taking salt or scallion root in their mouth, boiling black beans to suck soybean juice, adding salt and crushing plantain cotyledons or chrysanthemum leaves and holding them in their mouths Wait, often doesn't work, so had to find here.They often take short-acting analgesics, and most of them are old problems that have been deposited for many years. The symptoms are very serious in all likelihood. One day, an old man came with such a headache that she didn't want to live anymore. She said that if she couldn't be cured, she would be killed.Her symptoms resembled a Juei headache, most likely caused by a toothache.Jang Jin checked her mouth first, and the strange thing is that the teeth are very strong, so I have to suspect a gastrointestinal disease.Headaches are often caused by abnormal water metabolism. If the state of the stomach is worse than usual or you feel nauseous, symptoms such as headaches or dizziness often appear.

"Is it normal to eat normally?" "No food, no food." "What about digestion?" "I only eat bird food. What else can I digest?" It is such an old man who can't eat, but his body is very strong.Plus, it's unbelievable how strong her teeth are, given that people are prone to malnutrition when they get older.Chang Jin felt suspicious, so he asked the old man's daughter-in-law about the old man's way of keeping in good health.Not only is she unable to eat, but she also has a strong appetite. She often even snatches food from her grandchildren, and secretly hides the food under the quilt to eat it secretly, so she often suffers from indigestion.Judging from the small amount of urine she urinates, her stomach must be full of water.

Jang Jin prescribed Wulingsan to her, that is, to mix five kinds of herbs such as Alisma, Chi Fuling, Atractylodes macrocephala, Polyporus, and cinnamon in proportion.It can not only discharge the accumulated water in the stomach, but also eliminate the edema caused by kidney and heart diseases, which is very suitable for the diseases of the elderly. Later, the old man came here again and said that her headache had miraculously healed.Finally freed from the headache that had tormented her all her life, the old man was no longer worried, and her heart was relaxed. Her son and daughter-in-law were extremely excited.The old man's daughter-in-law was full of praise for Jang Geum's medical skills and thanked him again and again.Jang Jin was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say, and his face turned red with embarrassment.

After this incident, Jang Geum's name became popular in the Jeju area.Jang Geum had no time to cook and wash clothes, and Zheng's complaints became more and more serious.The judge allowed her to concentrate on practicing medicine, but Chang Jin always felt sorry for Zheng. Finally one day there were no patients, Jang Geum wanted to pick up Longquan water, so he went to the beach.She spent her childhood under the mountain, and lived under the shadow of the Nine Palaces since she was sensible, so she had no chance to see the sea.At first she was just surprised, she didn't expect such vast and vast things in the world, but she didn't have a good impression of the sea.

Before she knew it, she hadn't been to the beach for a long time. For some reason, Jang Geum felt an eager anticipation in her heart. She had fallen in love with the sea.She thought she had lost everything and could no longer accommodate anything, but she did not expect that she accommodated the sea, new people, and herbs, all of which surprised her.The heart that became empty after losing it became wider and wider, as if everything was easier to enter. The sea is smooth and shimmering like fresh kelp.Where the sea and the sky meet, the sunset glows red.Tamna* (alias of Jeju Island - Translator's Note) means a deep and remote island country.It is also a territory of North Korea, but it has to be given a "country" name, which shows how far away it is.

"Jang Geum, Jang Geum!" Jung-shi anxiously called Jang Geum.Seeing her running so far to find herself, she must be an urgent patient. "A man came from the southern village and said his mother was dying, and there was no end to the noise." "noisy?" "He said that if he doesn't get the doctor girl, he will fight me to the death." So Jang Geum followed the man to a village far away.After asking on the way, I found out that the man's mother was a diver.Ama have been lurking in the deep sea for many years, holding their breath for underwater operations. The high-intensity water pressure and lack of oxygen are prone to chronic headaches, hard of ears, tinnitus, gastrointestinal diseases, neuralgia, arthritis, etc. There is a lot of humidity, and coughing and wheezing are also common.

The man's mother is the "Da Shangjun" who has been working underwater for fifty years alone.From the beginning of the "Children's Army", they have been engaged in underwater work. After going through the lower army, the middle army, and the upper army, they can finally become the senior army. Heard that the man's mother suffered for many years from being bloated.Bloat, or abscess, is the most common ailment for the people of Jeju Island, as is parasitic disease, which is caused by the warm and humid weather.It looked like she was in severe pain, as if she had been delayed for a long time.

Boil the root of Hanxin grass or Angelica sinensis, and the whole plant of Solanum nigrum or Commelina japonicus in water, and apply this medicine to the affected area, and the swelling will be eliminated.Or grind raw mung beans into powder and apply to the affected area, or scrub the affected area with boiled mushroom water, all of which will have obvious effects.When the condition is serious, not only the surface will rot, but also the inside will rot, making life and death difficult to predict.The so-called "bloated" means blockage, and it is also the result of disharmony.Swelling comes from the disharmony of internal organs. If you get angry, the original swelling will aggravate, and the problem comes from "fire".For someone so close to water as the man's mother, it seemed far-fetched to say she was full of fire.But she can only breathe on land and holds her breath when she is in the water, so the illness is not difficult to explain.

Every shrine on Jeju Island enshrines the Goddess of the Sea and Dragon King, a deity dedicated to protecting people from skin diseases.Many people believe that they will get better after praying, so they often delay the best time for treatment, which makes the condition worse.In the ancestral hall dedicated to the goddess of the sea, there is a custom of offering sacrificial rice and putting a boiled egg on the rice.This is a beautiful wish of people, hoping that the skin can be as neat and delicate as the white and smooth skin after peeling off the eggshell. The abscess on Da Shangjun's back stood out like a mountain.If there is fire in the affected area, it means that there is pus.At the beginning, she pressed the part lightly, but there was no special reaction. If she pressed it hard, she immediately shouted "I'm going to die" and passed out. "The abscess seems to be very deep, and it looks like it needs to be removed." "Excision? Cut off the meat?" When Da Shangjun heard that he was going to cut the flesh, he couldn't help but turn pale with fright, and he didn't want to hear any more.The immobile Da Shangjun pestered his son to pray to the goddess of the sea, and said that he would rather paste abalone shells. "What is abalone shell?" "A kind of bamboo hat-shaped shell, which can be seen everywhere in this place. Abalone shells are used to clinging to rocks, and they must be removed with a knife. They are very sticky. When the abalone shells are taken off and attached to the abscess, the suction is very strong. I heard that Eliminates abscesses." "That is only a temporary method. The abscess may be distributed in five parts, namely the head, the base of the ear, the eyebrows, the jaw, the back, etc. The abscess in these parts may be fatal. If it is not completely removed, the deep Sooner or later the suppuration at the site spreads to the internal organs." Even so, Dashangjun was still resolutely unwilling to remove it.The mother's entanglement caused the son to be devastated, and finally he had to threaten his mother that if she did not receive treatment, he would leave here and go to the mainland.In desperation, the mother obediently agreed to the treatment. Jang Geum told himself to be calm.Until now, she has never even tried acupuncture, let alone excision of the affected area.Jang Geum's knife skills are proficient, but unfortunately the target this time is not food, but human skin.As for the treatment method, I have only read it in the book, and I have never really tried it, so I am even more worried. First, eight radial incisions were made on the abscess, and then the pus was squeezed out, and acupuncture was performed twice.The pus was squeezed out, and it seemed that he could breathe a sigh of relief, but the patient was in excruciating pain, and by the end of the resection, all three of them were exhausted.If the residual poison is not removed, it is easy to have pus flow out or hinder suturing.Jang Geum smoked with stone sulfur and left there. It was already dark outside, and I couldn't see my fingers.Jang Geum regretted rejecting the man's offer to send her.There are no stars, and the erratic clouds cover the moon, which intensifies the feeling of gloom.After the calm, the fog rose, the sea looked gloomy, and there was even a strange sound that had never been heard before. Jang Geum quickened his pace as if being chased, his eyes were always looking towards the sea.She secretly told herself not to look there, but to look straight ahead, but she always turned her head involuntarily.When she looked back, the moon had just come out of the clouds, and the moonlight was pouring silently on the shore.A large ship sailed quietly, and after a while, countless black shadows swarmed ashore and broke into the village. The prison camp was as calm as usual.Jang Geum ran directly to the judge's residence and woke him up. "The pirates broke in?" The judge was taken aback, dawdling and not knowing what to do.He just took office not long ago, so he was even more clueless.All the pirate soldiers gathered, and he ordered the beacon fire to be lit and the horn to be blown. The Jeju Island area was often invaded by Japanese pirates. During the reign of King Sejong, the pacifier Han Seungsun had already established the beacon system, forming a complete security and protection system.Beacon fires are built along the coastline, and beacon fires are also set up on the mountain peaks. In case of emergency, Jeju City, other towns and defense posts can be notified in time. However, after all, Fenghuo is only a means of communication relying on the naked eye, and the transmission of information will be slowed down in bad weather.That was the case that night.The plan to send information to each other by blowing horns and lighting beacon fires, and then carry out water and land cooperation to defeat the enemy failed because of the damn night fog. The enemy crossed Xigui Town and gradually occupied various villages.The villages that fought fiercely during the Miura Japanese Invasion were also helpless, and could only watch the Japanese invaders.Four days later, the Jeju prison camp, whose defense line had completely collapsed, fell into the enemy's hands. Villages were burned and residents killed.The fishing nets, roofs, barns, and torreya forest, which made people feel very friendly, were all caught in the fire.Jang Geum was stunned.It was very difficult to find a reliable strength here, but everything disappeared in an instant.Everything disappeared, leaving only herself, and loneliness was more terrifying than death.She began to be afraid of herself, afraid of herself who caused disasters wherever she went. Those familiar with each other died, were wounded, and some were imprisoned.The Japanese pirates need someone to serve them, so only Jang Geum and Zheng Shi were released.The only exception was the torture room. He joined the enemy's camp and expressed that he would work hard for the enemy.He is more ruthless than Japanese pirates. "If they are in a bad mood, they will kill with a knife, so you must make delicious food!" Not only can't heal the wounded soldiers, but also cook for the Japanese pirates. Thinking of such a helpless situation, Jang Geum is really depressed. The Japanese general couldn't eat at all, and thought it was not to his taste at first, but it didn't take long to find out that he was seriously ill.Sure enough, he drove He began to summon the best doctors on the island, but none of them came home alive.Not only could they not cure the Japanese general's disease, but they didn't even know the name of the disease, so they were beheaded on the spot. There are no doctors to call, and now even ordinary people are out of luck. "The big thing is bad! The Japanese pirates said that if they can't find the doctor again, they will kill a person in an hour!" Jang Geum stayed in the kitchen with Zheng Shi, and the execution room ran in yelling. "Kill one person in one hour?" "Yeah, that's what they said, and they did what they said." "The doctors are all dead now, where can I find them?" "Everything is dead, isn't there another one..." The torture room became more and more vague, and his eyes were creepy.Jang Geum shouted suddenly. "Hate!" "Now it's not a question of whether you like it or not. They can say, kill one person every hour?" "I can't treat Japanese generals! Even if I want to, but as the chief, will he allow me, a little medical girl, to treat him?" "Then you don't have to worry about it. People who will die soon, do you still mind these things?" The reason why the punishment room begged Chang Geum was not for the lives of the villagers, he wanted to make a great contribution.Chang Jin's heart was boiling with uncontrollable disgust and hostility, she really wanted to spit on that hideous face. "If you swear to die, then I can't help it... But I think he will definitely look for the sacrifice from the nearest place?" The torture room looked up and down at Mrs. Zheng, who was so frightened that she sat down on the ground. "Give you some time, think about it!" Jang Geum clenched his fists and trembled, really wanting to kill the executioner who pretended to be coughing and walked out of the kitchen.Zheng's eyes were mixed with anger and terror, and she looked at Jang Geum with a complicated expression.Now, she has no choice. The Japanese general's gums were severely swollen and cracked, and he bled a lot. His skin was blue and purple everywhere, his joints were filled with moisture, his pulse beat weakly, and he was physically and mentally exhausted.From this point of view, his disease has spread to the kidneys.If it is not treated in time, it will die of renal failure sooner or later. "It's a common ailment among the crew." The torture chamber acts as an interpreter.Jeju Island is very close to Dama Island, and many people on the island can speak Japanese. "What's the name of the disease?" "The physical and mental exhaustion caused by scurvy. During the long-term voyage, he failed to consume enough vegetables and fruits, so he suffered from scurvy, and the long-term delay induced renal complications." "Can it be cured?" "If you treat it with tangerine peel or green peel and persimmon leaves, scurvy will get better sooner or later. The key now is to treat your acute renal failure." "I don't have time to delay here. If you can't cure me within two days, I'll take your head off!" "However, I have one condition..." "condition?" The Japanese general laughed so hard that his waist was bent.He stopped laughing suddenly, and stared fiercely at Jang Geum, that gaze was so powerful, as if he could kill without a knife. "If you refuse to treat me, I'll just chop off your head. Do you think I will risk my life to negotiate with you bitch?" "Cut it!" "what?" "I died a long time ago, do you think I'm still afraid of death?" Wajang glared at Jang Geum with his murderous eyes.It would be shameful enough for a woman to see a doctor for him. Of course, he didn't want to negotiate with the maid as the chief. "Okay! Tell me what you want..." "Release all those people on board, and don't hurt a hair of them!" "A servant girl thinks a lot! Good! However, if you can't cure my illness within two days, not only you, but all the two-legged animals on this island will be taken away and torn into pieces! " "The so-called acute renal failure is the low excretion and regulation function, which cannot be gradually recovered. The blood flow to the kidney is blocked. Although the kidney has not yet developed disease, it will also cause blood disease due to the decrease in urine output. After two or three days, the urine output will gradually decrease. The increase, but it is only a temporary phenomenon, does not mean that the renal function has recovered, and infusion therapy should be taken at the same time before the urine output is stable." "I'll kill you if it can't be cured. You don't need to talk so much." "Although you killed my compatriots and robbed our land, you are now my patient. If there is no communication between the doctor and the patient, even if the treatment is taken, the effect will not be quick." Jang Geum said what he wanted to say without any scruples, and Wa Jiang seemed to think that what she said made sense, so he kept nodding. "Then, I'll go out and look for needles and medicinal materials first." Qingpi and Chenpi Changjin have seen each other before, but she is not sure about the persimmon leaf.I heard that spinach is good for curing scurvy, but spinach is a cold-resistant crop, so it is difficult to grow it in Jeju.Her mind was full of such thoughts, and she was about to go out when a heavy voice made Jang Geum stop. "Didn't you say that you are not afraid of death? Then what are you afraid of?" "...I'm afraid of losing everyone around me except myself..." It seems to be this island, but the result is not; it seems to be that island, but the result is not either.The sea meets the sky, no matter how you go, you still can't reach the end.He heard that Jeju Island was just beyond the horizon, but the horizon always slipped away quietly, so anxious that he almost lost his breath. The seagulls following Busanpo all the way are still circling overhead, making people dizzy.Zheng Hao was so anxious that he lowered his head and looked down at the ship's side from time to time.Where the warship passed, the black sea spit out white foam and boiled. Zheng Hao reported Jang Geum's situation in several memorials, but no one in the court took any measures.In the end, he was also transferred to Seoul Mansion to take up a idle position, out of Wu Jianhu's sight.The Hanseong government is responsible for the administrative affairs of the Hanyang area, and it is one of the three judiciary departments, exercising judicial power together with the Xingcao and Sixian government.It is really not suitable for Zheng Hao to just sit in front of the copywriter of the Seoul government office and manage the household registration affairs. At this time, the Japanese pirates frequently intrude in Gyeongsang-do and Jeolla-do, which is a rare opportunity for Zheng Hao.The imperial court reactivated Jeongho and appointed him as an officer in the arresting army and sent him to Busanpo.When Jung-ho left Hanyang, he had a lot of questions about what happened to Jin-young. The news that Shengen was canonized as the fourth grade Shuyuan was spreading all over the city. The reason why Zheng Hao is willing to go to Busanpo is because Busan is not far from Jeju. Since Pusanpo, Nailpo and Yanpo ports allowed Japanese to do business and live there, the number of Japanese pirates has mushroomed like mushrooms after rain.The imperial court, which was in charge of transactions and receptions, gradually found it difficult to control the activities of Japanese pirates, and hated them. Originally, there were only 60 Japanese, but by the end of Sejong's reign, the number had increased to 2,000.They gradually became arrogant and trampled on the court regulations wantonly.In the process of suppressing Japanese pirates, conflicts between Japanese pirates and officials occurred frequently.After Zhongzong came to the throne, he began to strictly monitor the Japanese pirates. In 1510, Zong Zhensheng, the lord of Tsushima Island, was ordered to lead the Miura Japanese to leave, and at the same time fully monitor the Japanese ships. The Japanese in Miura were dissatisfied with this and launched the Miura Japanese Rebellion.If you count the thugs from the Tsushima expedition, there are four to five thousand people in total.They captured Nailpo and Pusanpo, breaking through the Xiongchuan line of defense.The imperial court immediately appointed Huang Heng and Liu Dannian as the defense envoys of the left and right sides of Gyeongsang, and defeated the Japanese pirates' attack in one fell swoop.The Japanese in Miura were all expelled, and the transaction between Korea and Japan was interrupted for a while. Japan's Ashikaga shogunate repeatedly requested the re-establishment of diplomatic relations, and signed the Treaty of Shinshin, and opened Nairura two years later.At this time, many harsh conditions were still attached, such as the Japanese were not allowed to settle in Miura, and the number of ships sent for trading was limited. The Japanese were quite dissatisfied.In September of the same year, Zhongzong categorically rejected the request of the owner of Tsushima Island to increase the number of ships sent every year. After formal trade activities were restricted, the Japanese pirates became more aggressive in burning, killing and looting.Zheng Hao has been looking for an opportunity to go to Jeju Island after accepting the order to perform missions in Busanpo.He also just wanted to go over and see if she was still alive.As long as he can see that she is still alive, even if there is no chance to see her again in the future, Zheng Hao can finally breathe a sigh of relief.Unexpectedly, a few days ago, Zheng Hao suddenly received an order from the court, saying that the situation in Jeju Island was in crisis, and asked him to go to Jeju Island to observe the movement. The ship kept moving forward, but Zheng Hao, who was standing on the deck, stomped his feet anxiously.Compared with their respective time, the speed of the ship was indeed too slow. It was already dark when the boat approached the shore.It was clearly Japanese who was moving slowly and proudly on the pier, and his intuition told Zheng Hao that something must have happened here. "The Japanese pirates seem to have already occupied this island. Don't dock the boat yet, just float around for a while, observe the movement, and see where the Japanese pirates parked the boat. When you see the beacon fire, you will meet here immediately without delay. Also, you guys The two went back to ask for help. I will immediately change into plain clothes and go to the prison camp in Jeju to find out." After Zheng Hao finished his instructions, he left his soldiers on the boat and jumped into the sea alone.On the way to the prison camp, what I heard and saw was more cruel than I imagined. There were traces of killing everywhere, everyone looked devastated, and many places in the village were burned.In the wretched ruins, Zheng Hao was secretly worried about whether Jang Geum was safe or not. Zheng Hao's heart was about to tighten, but Jang Geum was indeed safe and sound.The Japanese general's condition showed signs of improvement. First of all, his gums stopped bleeding and his urine output gradually stabilized. "I will abide by the agreement and release all the prisoners!" Jang Jin is skeptical, but it seems that the Japanese general still intends to abide by the agreement.Jang Geum finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he was worried, what if the Japanese general did not release the captives after he recovered from his illness. "Let's go at dawn tomorrow, get ready!" "Prepare... what do you mean?" "Didn't you say that my illness is not completely cured?" "How about..." "You're going to leave by boat with me." This is really in line with the words of the ancients: entering the circle of Wanshan, one mountain releases one mountain barrier!No, it should be said that one island releases one island block.Although she can temporarily avoid death, once she is brought to Tsushima Island, she will die there soon.Jeju Island, which is also the territory of North Korea, is so far away, but this time it is going to be taken to the land of Japanese pirates that is farther away than here. That night, Jang Geum thought a lot.For a moment she thought about running away, but she quickly gave up.All roads on the island lead to the sea, and if you want to escape, you can only escape to the Dragon Palace.Jang Geum also thought of killing the Japanese general.After much deliberation, there is still no satisfactory solution.At this time, she thought of suicide. As soon as this idea was born, two things immediately appeared in Jang Geum's mind, one was that Han Shanggong had not been cleared of the crime, and the other was Zhenghao's face. "Be sure to come back, I'll wait for you." Jang Geum took out the three-color fringed ribbon from his arms.After it was lost and recovered, this three-color fringed streamer never left her body again, even when changing clothes or taking a bath, she would put it in the nearest visible place.The samurai who had rescued him was not Li Zhengmian, nor anyone else, but Zheng Hao... He kept it for a long time, and he must have cherished it very much, so he gave it to himself on that day, that heartbreaking moment of parting. She took the golden rooster back to the palace that day, the situation was so urgent, but she still didn't ignore a dying man, but ran around looking for herbs for him.Those who survived and those who saved lives could not recognize each other, but fell in love with each other when they met again, and shared the sadness of parting.The three-color tassel streamer that fell accidentally unexpectedly returned miraculously and returned to the owner, but today it made the owner feel so sad that he wanted to cry. The sky is getting brighter and dawn is approaching.Since his father's relics can return to his side, sooner or later, he can also return to his hometown.Jang Geum slowly tidied up his belongings. The activities of the Japanese pirates are somewhat abnormal, and it will take two days at the fastest for the reinforcements to arrive.If the Japanese pirates had already set off, they could only watch them leave. They must have plundered a lot of people and property in the prison camp, and they might even capture people as slaves.But you can't light the beacon because of this, otherwise you can only ruin the lives of soldiers in vain. Zhenghao was watching the movement of Guande Pavilion when he suddenly noticed white smoke rising from the distant mountain peak.It is beacon.It may be our army's combat signal.Thinking of this, a light of hope flooded Zheng Hao's heart again.Gather the officers and soldiers scattered on the island, maybe It will be able to recapture the Jeju prison camp. As expected, Zheng Hao did not expect it.Even though he was suppressed by the enemy and had no chance to breathe, one soldier escaped and drove to Lishui by boat. Together with the soldiers dispatched urgently by the Jiedu Envoy Battalion of the Jeolla Zuodo Water Army, they fought to retake the robbed village. And attacked all the way to the Jeju prison camp. When they arrived at the prison camp, they heard the news that Jang Geum was taken away by the Japanese general.Before he could breathe, Zhenghao quickly lit the beacon and chased the Japanese army with the soldiers.At this moment, Zheng Hao only hoped that the soldiers could stop the enemy ship desperately when they saw the beacon fire. When they arrived at the pier, the soldiers under him were fighting hard with the troops led by General Wa.Seeing more and more people here, the enemy began to move slowly towards the sea.A small wooden boat has long been moored on the coast, waiting to pick up the Japanese general.A big ship behind has weighed anchor and is ready to sail away. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Japanese general turned over and jumped into the sea.But he wasn't alone, he put the knife on Jang Geum's neck and kept cursing.It seems that anyone who dares to approach will kill Jang Geum.Jeong-ho arrives at the pier, and the wooden boat that Wajang and Jang-geum are on is about to set off.Zheng Hao could no longer just sit back and watch Jang Geum leave. It was enough that such a stupid thing happened once in Hainan Wharf. Taking advantage of the Japanese general's gaze resting on the soldiers in front, with a swipe, Zheng Hao shot an arrow at him.It was the sharp arrow that was lost in the dream.The arrow shot right through the Japanese general's neck, and the Japanese general struggled to pull the arrow out, but finally fell into the sea and floated on the surface of the sea.Blood stained a large swath of dark green water. "My lord...really...isn't it a dream?" The distraught Jang Geum was saved, she stammered while looking at Zheng Hao.If it was a dream, my heart wouldn't be beating so hard. "I promised to wait for you, but I couldn't wait any longer, so I had to come first." Jang Geum couldn't hold on any longer, and threw himself into Zheng Hao's arms. But the two of them could not go back side by side.The pastors and judges couldn't get rid of the accusation that Yuwa was unfavorable, so they blamed Jang Geum for all the responsibilities.Jang Geum was falsely accused of treating the Japanese generals and colluding with the Japanese pirates, and was escorted to Hanyang Yijinfu. At that time, the imperial court was being disturbed by the incident of "walking the Xiao as king", and there was no peace.There was discord between the new Jinshi faction headed by Zhao Guangzu and the old Xun faction represented by Hong Jingzhou, which led to a tragic tragedy. Since he ascended the throne for ten years, Zhongzong was under the pressure of heroes and bureaucrats anyway, unable to realize his ideals and beliefs.The former Wuwu and Jiazi disasters caused the Shilin faction to be brutally killed, Confucianism declined, and legal discipline was in disarray. Therefore, Zhongzong vigorously used the new Jinshi faction that had been dismissed.It was at this time that Zhao Guangzu, an ambitious idealist, appeared on the stage. He advocated the realization of ideal politics based on the Neo-Confucianism.Abolish superstition, enforce Hsiangyo* (self-government law of village society in the Joseon Dynasty——Translator's Note), set up Virtue Division* (an official selection system proposed by Jo Gwangjo during the Joseon King Jongjong period, in order to select talents with both ability and political integrity. The imperial examination——Translator's Note) etc. are Zhao Guangzu's idea. Zhao Guangzu only emphasized Taoism, and all literati who held different ideas were classified as reactionaries by him.He completely eradicated the old school of Hoon as a dissident, and he tried his best to implement a radical policy that ignored reality, all of which planted the root of disaster.The so-called being king is actually the last defense adopted by the old school of Xun in order to seek their own way out after realizing the crisis, but it is just a clumsy and despicable self-written and self-acted drama. At that time, Hong Jingzhou's daughter had become Zhongzong's concubine, so Hong Jingzhou instigated her to write the words "Let's be king" on the leaves of the back mountain with honey.The worms had chewed up the leaves, leaving only the sticky parts coated with honey.After the king saw these four words, his favor towards Zhao Guangzu gradually faded. The combination of "Zou" and "Xiao" is "Zhao", and "Zou Xiao is king" means that the Zhao family is called king. His Majesty has been troubled all day long by the memorials of Nan Gong, Shen Zhen, Hong Jingzhou and other old-school scholars who wanted to put Zhao Guangzu to death. He was also angry at the radical and exclusive attitude of the New Scholars, so his heart was even more complicated.You can neither kill nor sit idly by, that's where the problem lies.The king knew that the leaf incident was deliberately fabricated by someone, so Zhao Guangzu could not kill him, but if he ignored it, the court would be too chaotic. It was during this special and sensitive period that Jang Geum was once again imprisoned in the Forbidden City.At that time, there were two diametrically opposed opinions. One opinion believed that although the lives of the captives were important, he should be punished for treating the Japanese generals;Zheng Hao ran around, doing everything possible to appeal to the hearts of the people in order to broaden public opinion. Jang Geum's fear and shock of returning to the Forbidden City far exceeds his fear of death. Han Shanggong died here, and his father also died here. Is his fate destined to end in the Forbidden City? The memorials about the incident of "Being the King" exhausted the king so much that as long as it was a memorial, he simply threw it aside and didn't even look at it. "Have the Japanese pirates who invaded Jeju Island been repelled?" Nakamune, who once suppressed the Miura Japanese Rebellion, was particularly concerned about the Japanese pirate incident. "So, who made the great contribution?" "Min Jung-ho!" "Min Jung-ho? You should be rewarded heavily!" "Your Highness, Min Jung-ho, who made great contributions in repelling the Japanese pirates, has submitted a memorial." Min Zhenghao's memorabilia got the king's attention, and the chief servant played a key role.After Zhenghao submitted the memorial, there was still no response, so he simply went to the long-term servant and explained the ins and outs of the incident in detail.Zhenghao sincerely told him that Jang Geum was imprisoned in the Yijin Mansion because of this incident, and the only person who can save her now is Shangyingling Prison.Zheng Hao asked ten thousand to ten thousand, and begged the long-term servants to find ways to make the king pay attention to his memorabilia. Hearing that it was a memorial, the king immediately frowned, then changed his mood and read on. "It's unreasonable! In order to save the people, he was willing to risk his life to treat the Japanese general. Instead of being rewarded, he was sentenced to the crime of collaborating with the enemy. It's too cruel! Inform the Yiban Mansion to release him immediately!" "Jang Geum! Oh, Jang Geum!" Seeing Jang Geum, De Gu cried out excitedly. "How are you doing these days?" "What's the matter? Since your accident, I've been worried every day, and I haven't had a good day." "Ouch, ouch, you don't even blush when you lie, who is too lazy to steal wine every day?" "You mother-in-law! Do you think I want to drink? My heart is on fire. I have no choice but to drink. My heart is on fire!" "Is it cold after drinking? Is it cold? Is it cold?" They were still arguing endlessly like before, and only then did Jang Geum feel that he was really back.From the first time I left here with Xun Yushanggong, I walked so far, and now I finally came back.After struggling for so long and suffering for more than ten years, I finally returned to the place where I started. "Are you going to the palace now, or what? You'll have to work harder if you want to pay for your meals." "You impersonal mother-in-law. The child finally came back after suffering so much, and you don't want to make up for her, and you can know the food price when you open your mouth and shut your mouth?" "It's not mainly about food money...I want to help her think about the way to survive." "Who said this is your natal family, and you are the mother of your natal family?" "Oh, who said no? Should the natal mother feed her daughter for free?" Even though she said this, De Jiu's wife quietly lifted the corner of her clothes and wiped the corners of her eyes. Two days later in the morning, a medical officer came from the inner hospital.Deku's daughter-in-law asked Jang Geum to steam the distiller's grains, but she didn't care, she just sat in the yard and basked in the sun.Jang Jin sat quietly on the flat bed, looking at the sunlight falling on the sauce jar, De Jiu came in and said someone was looking for her. "He said he was a medical officer from the Inner Hospital. How could the medical officer from the Inner Hospital look for you?" Jang Geum's heart was beating violently, he thought it was Zheng Hao who came, and he immediately calmed down when he heard this.However, when she saw the man standing quietly under the stone wall outside the gate, her calm heart jumped violently again. "grown ups!" The person who came was Zheng Yunbai. “我听说了医女给倭将治好病的消息，很感兴趣，一打听才知道是你。这次又差点没死吧？唉，不管走到哪儿，你都要惹乱子，跟从前一模一样。” “大人可不像从前了。听说您已经官复原职，看来是戒酒了吧？” “让我戒酒？还不如要了我的命呢！” “听您这么说，感觉您还跟从前一样，真是太高兴了！” 两人站在外面，轻轻地说着笑着。身穿医服的郑云白简直判若从前，更加苗条秀丽的长今身上散发出浓郁的女人气息。以前她像个孩子似的每天惹是生非，令人胆战心惊，而现在的她已经成长为目光深邃的成熟女人了。郑云白为自己有这样的想法而感觉难为情，于是他换了个话题。 “以后你打算怎么办呢？” “我还没想过……” “也不能结婚，只能到死做个处女鬼了！现在又有了奴婢的身份，你可真是五毒俱全，什么身份都有啊。” 长今苍白无力地笑了。就算云白不说，这也是渗透进骨子里的事实。 “……以你现在的身份只有两条路可走！要么成为正式的奴婢……” 说到这里，云白停下来打量着长今，仿佛连他自己也不清楚这话究竟对还是不对，等到他的思想矛盾平息下来，他所说的话比以往任何时候都更清晰也更响亮。 “要么成为医女！”
