Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Prescription Notes

During the period of female medical education, there were exams every three to five days.Jang Geum didn't win the first place in every exam. About three times out of five times, he would be taken away by someone else. This man was named Yin Fei, and he was an official servant. From day one, Yinfei has been particularly eye-catching.Not only because she is the only one of the same age among many young girls, but also her toned appearance and piercing eyes make her look otherworldly and extraordinary. Jang Geum can tell at a glance that Yinfei is very good, he can be called unparalleled.However, Yinfei always has a cold expression, only greets people with eyes, and looks difficult to get close to. Maybe this is because Jang Geum competes with her for nouns in every exam.

The ears of rice are embroidered, and the ears of rice are ripe.But no matter how the outside world changes, the seasons change, Jang Geum just buries his head in the sea of ​​books and has nothing else to do.She forgot the seasons, Zhenghao, and even herself.When loneliness strikes and is really unbearable, she climbs up the copper hill to appease her lonely heart. Looking at the buildings and towers of the main hall from a distance, all the years of being a member of the imperial dining room have been vividly revived. There are still faces worthy of my miss, who always give Jang Geum strength and courage. Love and dear Min Shang Gong, Chang Yi, and Jin Ying... However, everything is as fleeting as a cloud, and it is fleeting. Jang Geum shook his head vigorously, erasing the face that came to mind.All the people she loved have left this world, father, mother, Ding Shanggong, Han Shanggong...

They failed to live the rest of their lives, but died with hatred, and the more affectionate and righteous they were, the more miserable their death would be.Thinking about it this way, Jang Geum couldn't help feeling timid and fearful, and he couldn't give his feelings easily anymore. To love someone and gain strength from love, those years are really like a dream.As soon as the longing face appeared in his mind, Jang Geum gently erased it.Another autumn has passed, Jang Geum has never been so bleak. Winter is over, spring is getting warmer on the frozen land, Jang Geum also ushered in the last exam of his apprenticeship.That morning, Deku and his son accompanied Jang Geum to the entrance of the examination room.

"Ah! By the way..." Yi Yi hurriedly grabbed Jang Jin, and took out a thick thing from the inside of his jacket.Glutinous rice cakes carefully wrapped in oak leaves.De Jiu picked up one piece and put it into Jang Jin's mouth, and ordered. "If you eat this, you will definitely be on the gold list." "Uncle, there is nothing wrong with this exam." "Really? Then strive for the first place in the exam!" "That's right. It is said that only apprentices with excellent grades can become medical women in the inner hospital. So you must take the first place in the exam!"

Jang Geum swallowed the glutinous rice cake he was chewing, and nodded. As soon as the Huimin Department made an appearance, the venue immediately fell silent, as if cold water had been poured on it. "The apprentices gathered here today are the candidates who will become medical women and treat gynecological diseases in the future. Some of them must help concubines give birth, and then promote the stability and unity of the country. As the saying goes: 'It is better to treat ten men than to treat one woman 'It means that treating one woman is much more difficult than treating ten men. Because women's diseases are often hidden in relatively hidden parts and are not exposed to the outside. In addition, patients themselves are also important reasons for avoiding medical treatment."

The introduction of the Huimin Department's promotion is lengthy and serious.As expected, the exam will focus on gynecological diseases. "Only when women are healthy, ordinary people in the world can live a prosperous and healthy life. Therefore, today's final exam has prepared questions related to women's childbirth. For women with habitual abortion, please write a prescription Bar!" There were whispers in the examination room, and Jang Geum immediately started writing the prescription without hesitation.However, all kinds of fantasies flooded in, making it difficult for her to concentrate for a while.From the royal meal competition that couldn't be written in a single line, to Lian Sheng's accidental discovery of the cooking diary, to the suffocating competition with Han Shanggong...

At that time, I thought that everything was a stepping stone that must be stepped on towards the position of the most noble palace, but just as I was walking hard step by step, I was suddenly pushed into the water from behind, and the wind and waves engulfed Han Shanggong , I also narrowly escaped death, and barely recovered my life... Now, I will never be framed in embarrassment again, and I will never lose my loved ones again.Jang Geum wrote every word with aplomb and calm, almost tragic determination. Before announcing the test results, the Huimin Department called the apprentices together again and said loudly.

"As you all know, the female doctor who won the first place will be awarded the qualification to work in the internal hospital. However, the doctors who served as judges in this examination have different opinions, and the candidate for the first place has not yet been determined. .” There was an uproar in the venue, and Jang Geum calmly watched the promotion of Huimin Department. "Here are two prescriptions for Jiyin Pill, both of which are excellent, but one of them is a little special. In order to inquire directly to confirm the result, I have summoned you here. Xu Changjin!"

Everything was expected, and Jang Geum, who was named, took a step forward without hesitation. "yes!" "First, repeat your Jiyin Pill so that everyone can listen to it!" "Yes. Jingmo, Cangzhu, Cyperus cyperi, Rehmannia glutinosa, Eupatorium, ginseng, Campanulaceae, Dendrobium, Ligusticum officinalis, Gentiana, Licorice, Angelica, Cinnamon, Dried ginger, Asarum, Moutan bark, Chuanxiong, Woody, Poria, Peach kernels, cauliflower, yam, glutinous rice, soybean yellow rolls." "Jingmo is a kind of ink, and using ink as medicine is really special." "Jiyin Dan can nourish qi, blood and yin deficiency, which is very good for women after miscarriage. The reason why the ink is added is to remove the bad breath in the uterus. Among all the inks, Jingmo is the best, so it is used as medicine gone."

"That's right, the main raw material of ink is pine trees! If a pine tree can live for thousands of years, no matter whether it's pine needles, pine resin, bark, or pollen, they can be fully utilized without waste. Do you know those usages too? " "Yes. According to legend, pine needles are the food of gods, and ordinary people chew pine needles to relieve fatigue. After drying, pine needles have a significant effect on athlete's foot and indigestion, and can also be used as a tonic. Pine resin is not only a raw material for plasters, but also can treat Skin diseases. Young shoots can relieve cough and reduce phlegm. The seeds of the pine tree, also known as sea pine nuts, are excellent as a tonic. Pine flowers are often used as tea materials to treat heart and lung diseases. Drinking alcohol can treat brain tumors. In addition, pine buds are good for skin beauty and can eliminate dark spots in women who have had a miscarriage."

"Your prescription is very useful for women with recurrent miscarriages. So, do you know what Poria is?" "Poria cocos is a kind of fungus that eats pine resin for a living. The pine resin flows out from the roots of the tree, enters the ground, and combines with the fungus to condense into a lump. The outside is rough like a hard shell, and the inside is white or pink. The white one is called Bai Fuling, and the pink one is called Red Fuling. People who suffer from heart and mouth diseases, people who are often sad, and people who are mentally disturbed, taking Fuling is very beneficial." "Well, except for the use of Jingmo, apprentice Yinfei's prescription is very similar to yours. No matter how excellent the prescription is, if it can't cure the patient, it is just a blank sheet of paper. What do you think is the most important thing? What is it?" "Yes. A prescription is just a prescription, not a medicine. The sincerity of the prescriber, the sincerity of the decoction, and the sincerity of the patient's belief that the condition will improve after taking the medicine. Only when the above three kinds of sincerity are combined can the prescription become its real A veritable medicine." "That's right. How should you take your prescription?" "Mix the medicinal materials mentioned above, make a pill, and take it with hot wine. You can also add vinegar to boiling water instead of hot wine. One pill at a time." "Alcohol can stimulate the medicine to work faster, but why add vinegar to boiling water?" "Vinegar is very effective in clearing the poison in the body, that is, the turbidity." "Yes, that's right!" "Prescription pills must be taken warm before meals." "Really?" "According to records, if the disease is above the chest, the medicine should be taken after meals, and if the disease is below the confidant, the medicine should be taken before meals. Most of the medicines need to be taken warmly, and cold medicine is only required when cold medicine is used to treat fever. If the treatment is for cold symptoms and hot medicine is used, it is most appropriate to take it warm." The Huimin Department showed a gratified smile when it was promoted, and seemed very satisfied with Jang Geum's answer. "Understood. Because I don't know much about the use of Jingmo, I couldn't confirm your prescription as the number one in time." Ti Tiao looked around at the other Huimin Department doctors present and exchanged opinions with their eyes, and then confirmed that Jang Geum's prescription was the first.Yinfei ranks after Changjin.Jang Geum just felt relieved, she didn't smile, and she couldn't laugh, because now is just the beginning, and there is still a long way to go until Han Shanggong Zhaoxue is wronged. "I appreciate your intelligence very much. Do you want to stay in Huimin Department?" "I'm sorry, but I want to be a female doctor in the internal hospital." "Oh, so that's the case. According to the usual practice, the chief medical lady should be sent to the inner hospital. I just asked if you have any plans for this." That being said, the Huimin Department is still reluctant to be promoted.But she quickly recovered from her regret, and admonished the apprentices loudly. "Listen, all of you! You have finished your apprenticeship, officially become medical women, and started seeing patients. Some of you have entered the inner hospital to see patients for the harem concubines, and some of you need to stay in the Huimin Department to fight for the difficult life of the world. Seeing a doctor for common people. Of course, some female doctors need to return to the place of birth to be responsible for the medical treatment of the local people. But no matter where you are, what kind of people you are treating, and no matter what the status of the patient is, you must treat them equally and do your best. forget!" The instruction of Huimin Department's promotion was full of majesty, but Jang Geum fell into another thought, thinking that he would be able to return to the palace soon, and he could not hear any other voices.There are continuous lives, memories, and of course, sad dreams that cannot be realized... Now, everything starts over. Standing in front of the Chengzheng Pavilion of Changdeokgung Palace where the internal hospital is located, Jang Geum was filled with emotion.The exquisite and exquisite palaces and pavilions are closely connected, which is extremely sentimental.The old things are getting old day by day, but they have also learned the law of natural blending in the years. The central building at the front has a spacious hall, which is very eye-catching, and the official historian's room is next to it.Whenever the monarch goes out to inspect the palace, he must be accompanied by a historian, so it is necessary to prepare a temporary resting place for them. The place where the medical officers work is the needle clinic, which is smaller than imagined.The building next to the Acupuncture Hall is called the Medicine Tongshen Hall.The so-called medical fellowship refers to the talents with superb medical skills selected from famous doctors from all over the country. They have not passed the medical examination and officially entered the internal hospital. The rooms of the clerks and female doctors of the Inner Hospital are attached here. It is said that the duty room is a short distance from the Dunhua gate.In order to deal with emergencies, the medical officers of the inner hospital had to take turns to be on duty. For this reason, the duty room was built outside Dunhua Gate. The two buildings facing each other on the east and west sides are called medicinal material warehouses.In addition, a reservoir was built to store a special kind of water called Jiangxin water.The so-called Jiangxin water, as the name suggests, is the purest water in the center of the Han River. Of course, the most pleasing thing is the library, which is said to contain various medical classics.At this time, Jang Geum couldn't help thinking of Zheng Hao again, but Jang Geum quickly erased him from his heart.As long as we are still alive, we will meet again one day, even if there is no day of reunion, it seems that we can stick to it. As long as he is still alive, Jang Geum will have enough strength to support himself for the rest of his life.After the farewell to Han Shanggong, he was able to survive, not to mention the separation from Zhenghao now, so he can naturally face it happily.Although longing will intrude from time to time, but no matter what, we must try our best to live on.live!Because there is still something to do. In the corner of the courtyard facing the wall, there is a stone mortar for grinding medicinal materials under the sunshine of spring.Attracted by the sunlight, Jang Geum came to the center of the yard.The sun is warm.Facing the sunlight, Jang Geum looked towards the building of the inner hospital, the eagle head and the dragon head on the cornice of Chengzheng Pavilion were standing with their backs, looking up at the sky, as if they were angry.In a trance, tears have already flowed down my cheeks. The days passed quickly, and Chang Geum had no time to care about him.Cutting medicine, decocting medicine, managing medicinal materials, these alone make people feel that spring is short.Even after becoming a medical girl, various educations continue one after another.Every time he finished his day's schedule and walked to the dormitory, Jang Geum's gaze would unconsciously look towards the imperial dining room. She really wanted to run over there immediately, hold Liansheng's hand, and tell her how she missed after parting, even if it was just crying silently.It seemed that as long as he could hug Lian Sheng and cry out, he could release the resentment entangled in his heart.However Jang Geum She stopped abruptly and returned to the doctor's dormitory. At this time, she always feels lonely.After her mother passed away, she became an orphan wandering in the world. At that time, she was not only lonely, but even more frightened.Now there is nothing that makes her afraid of losing, and when there is no fear, she feels utterly alone.She used to think that as long as she returned to the palace, she would be able to feel at ease and find her own place, but she was wrong, all the familiar things had disappeared, and this was a strange palace. Occasionally going to the backyard of Suwon Hall to look at the dragon cypress tree has become Jang Geum's only pleasure.In spring, on the cypress tree where Han Shanggong and his mother had buried persimmon vinegar, all the branches and branches were in full bloom with yellow flowers.Cypress wood can be used as spices, so it is also called fragrant wood.After the cypress dies, its fragrance is stronger and spreads farther than when it was alive. Staring at the tree stump in front of them, as if they saw the snow-white and healthy fingers, the two court ladies in cardamom years looked forward to the distant future with each other, and buried a jar of persimmon vinegar devoutly.Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Jang Geum's mouth. The giggles of Han Nairen and Pu Nairen seemed to come from afar through the curtain of time.Chang Jin was startled, and quickly looked around, but unexpectedly, the laughter stopped abruptly, only the bright spring light shone on the courtyard lonely and empty.What a dismal spring day. After burying the vinegar, his mother was expelled from the palace, thus ruining his dream, and Han Shanggong also lost his friends.In this way, what they buried that day was not persimmon vinegar, maybe it was a dream.Decades later, their daughters and apprentices dug out the vinegar and used it as a cooking material. Unexpectedly, it was this dish that made them stand out in the competition of the most noble palace. Maybe this is their dream come true. Now both of them have passed away, everything is over, but only their daughter and apprentice are left behind.Every time he thought of this, Jang Geum became more determined.Although the person is already dead, it will inevitably turn into a more intense fragrance and spread farther away. The mother is like this, and so is Han Shanggong.For this reason, their grievances must first be cleared, and before the wrongs are cleared, someone must stand up and expose the truth about their deaths. Except Jang Jin himself, no one will stand up again.That's why she has to live.To live is not just to linger, but to succeed.Therefore, you must not indulge in loneliness.Jang Geum decided that all things that softened his heart, including doubts, weaknesses, and worries, should be thrown away. As a female doctor in the internal hospital, Jang Geum is working hard to take root, but one night in late spring, something unexpected happened.The fragrance of chestnut flowers wafted between the sky and the earth. I don’t know if he was intoxicated by the fragrance of chestnut flowers or because he was working too hard. Jang Geum digested his busy schedule in a drowsy state.When she returned to the apartment exhausted and just about to lie down on the bed, a call came from outside the door.A girl she had never seen before stood outside the door with her head slightly lowered. "Who?" "I'm the girl from the acupuncture room. The imperial doctor ordered you to go to Ruicongtai right now." "Rui Cong Terrace, isn't it the stone terrace in the backyard? It's already this time, what else is there?" "I don't know the details. My duty is to ask the doctor to go to the acupuncture room." "Didn't you just say Ruicongtai, why are you going to the needle room again?" "The imperial doctor told me to take you to the needle room first to see the clothes you need to change." Although I was a little puzzled, but I didn't know the detailed inside story, but I couldn't rashly disobey the doctor's order.Following behind the girl in the needle room, Jang Geum felt extremely unbelievable.All the clothes she handed over, no matter the texture or color, clearly didn't look like the doctor's medical clothes. Looking at the signs, this matter is extremely suspicious, but despite this, Jang Geum changed his clothes silently.In any case, it is better to meet the imperial doctor first, listen to the whole story, and then make a judgment. Now, Jang Geum wears silk and satin all over his body, and leather shoes and accessories are also luxuries that can only be worn by ladies of the second class.The rules on color in the royal palace are particularly strict, and this red silk satin really surprised Jang Geum. Although I don't know much about other situations, Jang Geum has heard that the court's clothing for prostitutes is very loose, and the management is not strict.Even though their status is humble and people despise them from time to time, the luxurious clothes that ordinary women can only enjoy at weddings in their lives can be said to be commonplace for prostitutes. Not to mention what he thinks in his heart, just this green trousers and red jacket, and a big crown bun, the current Jang Geum is really beautiful and beautiful.Only the flower corolla inserted into the topknot and the syringe pinned to the belt reveal her identity as a pharmacy prostitute.Her lips are redder and brighter than the bright red dress she wears. Faced with such beauty, who can not be tempted. One-line cuffs without fish-belly sleeves, the skirt is pulled tight to the right, the underwear is faintly exposed at the hem, the white waist of the skirt is deliberately exposed under the jacket, the gorgeous patterns are embroidered on the waist of the skirt, and the clothes are layered several times to emphasize the buttocks ... Even if you look carefully and carefully, you don't look like a medical girl anyway. When he arrived at Ruicong Terrace, Jang Geum was even more dumbfounded.The lights around the pond are brightly lit, as if it were daytime.Climb to the carved dragon stone railing, huge banquets are arranged on both sides, and the sound of toasting and interlacing can be heard endlessly.There are not only Beijing prostitutes and medical girls, but also musicians, dancers, drummers, fine musicians and so on.Judging from the scale, it should be a very important banquet. "It's so late, why don't you hurry up and salute!" Seeing Chang Jin, the female doctor kept urging her.Following the urging voice of the female doctor, the men all turned their attention to Jang Geum. "Wow, it's amazing! If the supervisor hadn't asked everyone to come, I would have almost missed it." "Who says it's not. What are you still doing there? Why don't you hurry up and pour wine for the chief inspector of Neishan Temple!" The guy who called Naishansi Zheng tried his best to focus his distracted eyes, and looked Jang Geum up and down with a lewd smile on his face. This face was none other than Park Fuqian.He is attached to Wu Jianhu, seeks personal gain from Cui Panshu's business group, fills his own pockets, and unknowingly climbs to the highest position in Neishan Temple. Neishan Temple is mainly responsible for supplying the daily expenses of the various palaces and halls, rewarding wine and dishes for officials above the second grade, and also rewarding food and weaving for the Japanese and Jurchens. Jang Geum stared at Pu Fuqian without blinking his eyes. "Didn't you see that the chief supervisor is waiting? Why don't you hurry up and sit next to the chief supervisor, so that you can serve him!" The imperial doctor woman was very anxious and urged her repeatedly.However, Jang Geum remained motionless.No matter how important it is to avenge the mother and Han Shanggong, you can't pour wine for Pu Fuqian.The two of them knew each other, so they must have thought the same way. "Aha, why don't you sit down quickly, what are you doing?" "Forget it. This is the first time for this child to participate in such an occasion?" "yes." "Probably shy." "I'm so sorry, my lord." "What's your name?" Now that things have happened, Jang Geum has no reason not to say his name. "Xu Changjin!" "Oh, Jang Geum? I want to taste the taste of the wine you poured me. Is it good for your health for a medical lady to pour wine?" "I don't pour wine!" "why?" "Whether it is medicine or toast, sincerity is the most important thing. There is no sincerity in the wine I pour, only hatred!" "You mean hate?" "yes." "My status is the official judge of the country. You, a lowly pharmacy prostitute, don't feel a great honor to pour wine for me, but what do you hate?" "Because my sincerity is only dedicated to patients, not to private banquets!" "What did you say?" Pu Fuqian was furious and kicked the table in front of him.The imperial doctor woman stood up in a panic and hastily.How could Chang Jin care about these things, he rushed down the carved dragon stone fence, and left Ruicong Terrace without looking back. The next day, Chang Jin was called over by the imperial doctor again, but Yin Fei was already standing there.According to the usual practice, only the first-ranked female doctor can enter the inner hospital, but this time, even the second-ranked Yin Fei was selected as an exception.Because Yinfei not only had outstanding grades during her apprenticeship, but also her excellent prescriptions, the medical officers of the Huimin Department were hard to distinguish.There were even rumors that the Inner Hospital admired Yinfei's talent very much, and had already identified her as a candidate for the female doctor of the Inner Hospital.Anyway, for Jang Jin, she didn't hate the competition with Yin Fei during her apprenticeship. "Even if I drive the two of you away immediately, it's still hard to solve the hatred in my heart! What kind of occasion do you think it was, and you dare to leave without saying anything?" The female physician yelled angrily, as if she really wanted to drive the two of them away immediately. "His Royal Highness, in order to commend Supervisor Pu Fuqian's contribution, he gave the banquet in person. Who would have thought that you two bitches would be disappointed and return home, His Highness was furious. What do you think should be compensated?" Just by looking at the face of the imperial doctor, one can tell how much humiliation she has endured to calm the turmoil of last night.Even so, after all, the flood is hard to recover, and it is useless to say regret now, the only thing left is to accept punishment. "You two have just become medical girls, and you don't know how to tell the truth, so you made such a mistake. I will forgive you this time. From now on, if you dare to act rashly again, I will demote you to local prostitutes. Do you understand?" The so-called local prostitutes refer to another kind of prostitutes other than Beijing prostitutes.There are two types of prostitutes belonging to the government, Beijing prostitutes and local prostitutes. Among the local prostitutes, those who are outstanding in beauty and talent are selected as Beijing prostitutes.These two kinds of prostitutes only belong to different regions, and there is no difference in serving wine and banquets, dancing and laughing. "Am I wrong? Why don't you answer?" "No matter what the imperial nurse nurse says, I will never serve wine anyway!" Hearing this, not only the female doctor was astonished, but even Jang Geum couldn't believe his ears, and turned to look at Yin Fei next to him. "what?" "I want to be a doctor, not to pour wine for others." "How dare you be so presumptuous! Have you forgotten the fact that the medical lady is a pariah? As a pariah, what's the use of ambition? Whatever the two classes of nobles ask you to do, you have to do it obediently. The duty of a pariah! If you dare to disobey the order of the nobles, you will be beheaded, don't you even know this?" "If I have to pour wine for a man while I'm alive, I'd rather die!" "What... what?" The imperial doctor girl was about to go mad with anger, but Yinfei still didn't back down.Even Jang Geum was secretly worried about her stern and eloquent appearance.With her character of being willing to bend rather than bend, her future as a medical girl will never be smooth and smooth. The imperial doctor forced herself to be calm, put away her previous expression, and began to comfort Yinfei with kind words. "Prostitutes and medical women, both belong to the government. They have something in common in being a slut and serving the country. The service of a prostitute is to demonstrate the skills of singing and dancing, and the service of a medical woman is to demonstrate the treatment of patients. Medical skills, both have the same status and the same purpose. It is just to let you serve as a prostitute temporarily, is it worth your life?" "Even if the two have the same status and serve the same purpose for the country, the meanings of healing and saving lives are completely different from serving wine and banquets. Besides, isn't His Royal Highness strictly prohibiting medical women from attending banquets?" "That's just a decree, but reality is reality!" "In this way, it is not us who refuse to pour wine that should be punished, but the scholar-officials who violated the king's order!" Yinfei's abrupt answer left the female physician speechless. Jang Geum was stunned, staring blankly at Yin Fei, with both exclamation and respect in his eyes. "No matter what, if you don't listen to my doctor's words, you dare to act without authorization. You must be punished. Starting today, decoct the medicine for me for three consecutive days!" If the so-called punishment is decoction for three consecutive days, then it is not difficult.Yinfei was also puzzled, turned his head to look at Jang Geum, and the two looked at each other. "You are not allowed to close your eyes for three days and three nights, and you must guard the medicine jar all the time. If I find that you even close your eyes, I will denounce you as local prostitutes on the spot. Don't hate me then!" The words of the imperial doctor woman seemed to have come to an end, and Yin Fei let out a long sigh of relief.No wonder the punishment sounded mild at first glance, but more troublesome conditions were attached. Walking out of the imperial doctor's room, Yin Fei went to the decoction shop without hesitation.The medicine fellow Shen and Shangyao in front of the medicine jar looked at the two medical girls in unison. "What's the matter?" "The imperial doctor asked us to guard the medicine jar, and we were not allowed to leave for three days and three nights." It was still Yinfei who answered Shangyao's question. "This is Shang Yao's job, why did the imperial doctor give you such an order?" "As for the deep meaning, I can't tell. All I know is that she told us to stay in front of the medicine jar and not close our eyes for three days and three nights." "Really? It seems that the imperial doctor is punishing you. It is also very important to understand the process of decocting medicine, so let's study hard now and get familiar with it in advance." Shang Yao laughed loudly, turned around and continued his work. In fact, the importance of decocting medicine can be understood a little bit from the structure of the internal servant organization.Among the servants, Shangshan, who served the monarch’s meals, had the highest status, followed by Shangyun, who managed the royal wine, followed by Shangyao, who prepared the monarch’s decoction, and lastly, Shangcha, who managed the tea. Because rice, wine, medicine, and tea are all imported food, they must be prepared under the strict management of the closest relevant servants of the monarch, without exception. The internal hospital must follow cumbersome and strict procedures to deliver medicines to the monarch, so as to prevent the collusion between unruly people and medical officials.First of all, the internal hospital all sent three medical officers to diagnose the pulse of the monarch in turn, and then explained their opinions on the pulse condition respectively.As for whether to take medicine or not to take medicine, and what kind of medicine to take, you must discuss it together before making a decision.At this time, the imperial physician and medical staff also participated in the discussion. After sorting out the opinions, the lowest position among the imperial physicians was handed over to prepare the prescription paper, which was then submitted to the capital for approval.Du Titiao reported the contents of the prescription to the king of the Ming Dynasty and asked whether to take the medicine.Generally speaking, His Highness would order to take the medicine according to the contents of the prescription.After entering, you will enter the process of quickly preparing medicinal materials and decocting medicine.At this time, because it is the medicine that the monarch eats, so it must not be sloppy at all. The internal hospital and the imperial doctor must strictly check the preparation of the medicine to avoid using bad quality medicine or foreign matter in the soup. Even in the process of decocting the decoction, there may be problems, so an internal medical officer must be dispatched to check and supervise the whole process.After the medicinal soup is finished, if the order to take the medicine is issued, three internal hospitals will first adjust and taste the taste. After confirming that it is correct, the medicine is put into a special medicine bowl called lock material, and the name of the medicine is marked on the white paper and pasted on the lid.In addition to the medicine bowl on the small dining table, there is also a small ladle, sweet dates soaked in honey to remove the bitter taste left in the mouth after taking the medicine, and a ramie cloth towel to wipe the corners of the mouth. No matter whether it is Shang medicine, medical ginseng, or internal hospital adjustment, if there is any doubt, Yinfei will ask without fear.Chang Jin couldn't help admiring Yin Fei, and thought to himself that as long as he stayed close to him, he would naturally learn a lot. It was also at this time that she knew that the talc soup pot was the best among the decoction containers.In addition, put the medicinal materials in the empty medicine jar first, and then pour it into boiling water to soak for about an hour. This is the first time Jang Geum has heard of the method of decocting medicine. As for the amount of water required, it is most appropriate to decoct one dose per bowl of water, because the properties of the medicinal materials are different each time, so the amount of water can also be adjusted randomly, and it is better to be two fingers above the surface of the medicinal materials. Use high heat before rolling away, and then simmer for about an hour.If the time is less than an hour and the medicine has boiled, you can pour out the soup first, add water again, and boil until it boils again. This is the first time I have heard of this method.After an hour, if the medicinal residue floats to the surface of the water, gently filter the residue with a sackcloth, mix the medicinal liquid with the part poured out earlier, and take it three times.It is said that this is the most ideal method. The reason why the decoction process is so cumbersome is because the ingredients of the medicinal materials must be fully considered. For example, some medicinal materials are highly volatile and require a relatively short decoction time, while some medicinal materials must be smelted for a long time to exert their medicinal properties. effect.The first is to fry the highly volatile medicinal materials, and the second is to fry the medicinal materials that take a long time. Only in this way can we not miss all the useful ingredients.Generally speaking, mineral medicinal materials take the longest time, followed by animal medicinal materials, and finally plant medicinal materials. Among the botanical medicinal materials, plants whose flowers and leaves are used as medicine, such as mint, ageratum, Prunella vulgaris, Schizonepeta, Perrin, etc., have the shortest decoction time for volatile medicinal materials; It is advisable to cook for a long time. Just for decoction, there are so many things to learn, and of course it takes a lot of effort.However, the human body is so complicated. It has internal organs, more than two hundred bones, and more than six hundred muscles, not to mention countless meridians and acupuncture points. It is really out of reach to master and integrate them all. thing. Moreover, Yun Bai once said that everyone's physique is different, and we should communicate with nature according to our innate characteristics.All this seems to be impossible until death if one wants to thoroughly understand and use it freely.You can do some experiments while cooking, at most it will only cause diarrhea, and it will not cause any serious harm. However, medical skills are a matter of life and death, so there is no room for sloppy, and it is absolutely forbidden to do experiments on human subjects. Yun Bai also said that it depends on comprehension.Of course Jang Geum wants to understand everything, but with his current superficial experience, when will he be able to learn such mysterious truths. In the process of learning how to decoct medicine together, the first day finally passed.The next morning, my eyelids started to get heavy.At any rate, he survived the day, but when night came, the overwhelming tiredness was unbearable.The internal hospital adjusts and medicines come in and out together, and occasionally Shang Yao also comes to see, this is indeed not a place to doze off, otherwise it will soon spread to the imperial doctor into the woman's ears. "I'm so sleepy, shall we chat?" This is the first time that Yin talks to Jang Geum informally.Without the consent of the other party, he used non-honorific language indiscriminately.In fact, even in front of the imperial doctor's lady, she still looks righteous and confident, so if you care about honorific words or non-honorific words with her, it would be a bit unreasonable to make trouble. "Okay. I also wanted to chat with you for a long time, but I didn't expect the opportunity to finally come." "You really impress me." "What's the meaning?" "I've been paying attention to you since I was an apprentice. At that time, your expression was indifferent, and you only knew how to study hard." "You were the same back then." Jang Geum immediately responded, making Yin Fei laugh out loud.But she immediately erased the smile on her face, and said with an almost tragic expression. "Even if I fight to the death, I won't pour wine for the men!" "me too." "Jimao Shi Disaster* (the Shilin tragedy in the 14th year of King Jongjong of the Joseon Dynasty (1519) mainly occurred between the conservative faction headed by Nam Gun and the new progressive faction headed by Zhao Guangzu, and finally ended with the victory of the conservative faction , when the New Progressives were sent to death or exiled——Translator’s Note), my father was exiled, and then he was given to die in exile. One day, my mother was called to a banquet to accompany the wine. When she came back, she was dying and unconscious. It turned out that my mother refused to serve the dignitaries and was beaten to death. I searched all over the valley and fields like crazy , hoping to find medicinal materials to heal my mother, but unexpectedly the summer was too hot, the wound soon festered and ruptured, and my mother died of injustice like this. I am my mother's daughter, and I will never do the thing of pouring wine for a man!" Just looking at Yinfei's eyes, one can fully feel her anger and sorrow at that time.Out of pity and sympathy for the sick, Jang Geum immediately developed a good impression of Yin Fei. "I'm ashamed. If it weren't for someone I know inside, I might not have persisted like you without hesitation." "From now on, things like this may happen frequently, so we must take this opportunity to let her understand our will. Even if she is a female doctor, she can't drive us away or kill us casually. Even if头痛难受，可只要我们频频闯祸，你说这样的医女她还愿意使唤吗？用不了几次，她肯定会放弃我们的。” “好主意，我也觉得是这样。” 银非既刚强又聪明。有了这样的好朋友，肯定会成为医女生涯中莫大的慰藉。长今突然觉得心里非常踏实，仿佛得到了千军万马。然而困意阵阵袭来，再也难以抵挡。到了第三天，她们互相掐拧对方的皮肉，拿冷水往脸上泼，最后还把药罐子顶到头上，打个激灵睁开眼睛，却发现两人正额头相抵打着瞌睡。令人吃惊的是，哪怕只是短暂地合一下眼睛，也能临时消除疲惫，保持好大一会儿的清醒呢。当你几天几夜不睡时，刹那间的瞌睡便顶得上平时的一两个时辰，也许是睡得深的缘故吧。 稍微打了个盹，银非长长地打了个哈欠，几乎咧开了嘴巴，然后不等闭上嘴，她又一脸嫌恶地说道。 “那天我们不是被叫到瑞葱台了吗，你还记得吗？” "Ok." “当今殿下登上宝座之后，工程才被终止。如果按照原定计划完工，规模还会更庞大。” "How did you know?" “听说原来几乎计划把石栏杆垒到十人高，宽度也要求坐得下一千个人。台前的池塘要再挖十人深，以便让游船任意出入。” “幸亏终止了工程。如果按照原来的计划完工，召开宴会的次数肯定要比现在多得多，那我们就只能更频繁地被他们呼来唤去了。” “的确是万幸。燕山昏君之所以把台子建得这么高，又把池塘挖得这么深，目的就是为了欣赏蝶行游戏或者萤行游戏。” “什么是蝶行游戏或萤行游戏啊？” “我听说这是大国*（韩国古代对中国的称谓——译者注）的皇帝们喜欢玩的游戏。春天是蝶行游戏，夏天是萤行游戏。蝶就是蝴蝶，萤就是萤火虫。你明白了吗？” “蝴蝶和萤火虫，那要怎么玩啊？” “让宫女们每人拿一把扇子站到船上，然后把船驶进莲池中央，皇上点燃芦苇灯笼招引蝴蝶或萤火虫。如果它们停落到哪把扇子上，那么当天晚上这个拿扇子的宫女就要蒙受圣恩了。” “瑞葱台没有按原计划完工，可真是一大幸事啊！” “由于每天晚上都这么耽于玩乐，所以大国的皇帝们就需要不断补充精力。想知道他们用的是什么办法吗？” “你真是无所不知，无所不晓啊！” “我在全罗监营的时候，跟我在一起做事的官婢们告诉我的。据说有座山名叫龙候山，那里出产一种其他地方没有的鲤鱼，他们把鲤鱼运回皇宫，用木棒敲打，但是不能打死，为的是让鲤鱼流泪，喝了鲤鱼的眼泪，对恢复精力很有好处。” “怎么可能啊！他们怎么能用木棒把鲤鱼打得半死呢？而且鲤鱼又怎么会流眼泪呢？” “我也只是听说而已，分不清是真是假。先不管这些，另外还有呢。把鱼放进长颈瓶里，拿给狐狸吃，狐狸因为吃不着瓶子里的鱼便直流口水。狐狸的口水叫做狐涎，据说对恢复精力有奇特的效果，所以他们就连狐狸的口水也接了吃。” "It's incredible!" “如果这样还不能满足，我听说还有最后一样东西。你猜那是什么？” “蟒蛇？” “不是蟒蛇，而是覆盆子。” “不就是野草莓吗？” “嗯。听说大国的皇帝每天夜里都要吃一小把野草莓，因为野草莓是最好的强壮剂。” “对。我好象也学过野草莓对于治疗男性病很有效果。” “对妇科病也不错呀。据说还能治疗不孕呢。” "real?" “可是现在，你的嘴唇红得就像野草莓似的啊。” 长今很难为情地笑了，不知不觉中甚至连耳垂都变红了。 “咦，你的脸怎么红了？哇，真像红梅花啊！” “红梅花？好看吗？” “当然好看喽。” “好象这种花在汉阳很难见到的。” “在全罗监营的时候，母亲看着红梅花对我说，你一定要成为红梅花，哪怕是寒冬腊月，也要顶风冒雪，傲然盛开。她还说女人必须这样。也许是想起了去世的父亲，所以才有感而发吧。” 长今闻听此言，不由得肃然起敬。朝鲜的女人无不终生侍奉一个男人，如果失去了这个男人，那么作为女人的生活也就只能结束了。可是在这样的情况下，银非的母亲仍然以女人之身顽强地活了下来，她的嘱托是那么凄凉，令人无法当做耳旁风。 宁愿选择死也不肯侍奉达官贵人的女人尤其让人悲痛。活着的时候就像冰天雪地中依然盛开的红梅，却为了坚守贞节而舍弃了生命……那炽烈而纯洁的内心世界，长今不敢妄加猜测，而银非当然不愧为母亲的好女儿。 “怎么样？现在瞌睡跑掉了吧？” “不过它跟我说去去就来。” 两人压低了声音咯咯地笑着，就像两个天真无邪的小丫头。看来用不了多久，野草莓就会熟了。然而直到现在，长今都没能遵守采摘野草莓祭奠母亲的约定。如果说前年夏天是因为身在济州而没去成，那去年夏天为什么没去呢。 当时刚刚挨过云白的痛骂，然后全身心地埋头钻研医术，野草莓成熟的季节就这样错过了。当心中思念之情迫切时，往往条件又不允许；当条件允许的时候，却又想不起来。这样的不孝又该如何来补偿呢？ 长今沉浸在自己的思绪里，不由自主地叹了口气，银非殷切地呼唤长今。 "Jang Geum!" "Ok?" “我们来拉钩吧。” “拉钩干什么？” “不管发生什么事，我们也决不倒酒！不光是不倒酒，还不能被她们赶出去，一定要成为最优秀的医女！” “对。虽然困难重重，但是只要跟你在一起，我就感觉自己有无穷的力量！” “我一定要成为一名优秀的医女。如果被赶出去，要么再次成为官婢，要么被送去当地方医女，那我这辈子就只能照顾两班贵人了。我真的讨厌这样的生活！” “我跟你一样。可是，不管成为多么优秀的医女，我们仍然摆脱不了贱民的身份，不是吗？想到这里，我就觉得很伤心。” “重要的不是身份，而是以什么为生。贵族家的女人又能怎么样？虽然有享受不完的荣华富贵，可是一辈子被所谓的七去之恶*（七去之恶，韩国封建时代驱赶妻子的七种理由，包括不顺舅姑、无子、淫行、嫉妒、恶疾、口舌、盗窃——译者注）紧紧地束缚着，只能过着井底之蛙一般的生活！” “可是话又说回来了，贵族家的女人不会被人看不起，更不会被人叫到酒宴上去倒酒。” “她们不会被人看不起？算了吧！如果不能生儿子，她们就是罪无可赦的罪人。就算是罪人吧，也还有机会补偿呢，可是贵族家的女人们呢，那真的是万劫不复了。” “尽管我们的母亲也都没有生儿子，可她们不都从父亲那里得到了无比的爱吗。” “虽说医女还是贱民身份，但在这个国家能像我们这样学习知识的人毕竟还不多，而且就是在内医、看病医、初学医之中，我们也是身份最高的内医。既有机会学习知识，又有机会实践所学，世界上还有什么比这更幸运的呢？所以说贱民其实也就是一张外皮而已。你想啊，天地间还有什么比治病救人更高贵的事情呢？我们，我们必须为自己所从事的事业感到自豪。比起那些钉在闺房里最多只会刺刺绣、闲下来便吟诗作对或者无病呻吟的贵族女人们，我们是多么不同啊！” 长今感叹不已，出神地凝视着银非的脸，银非端庄而秀气的脸上闪耀着自信。原本以为除了连生，再也结识不到新的朋友了，然而人生在世，总能遇见意想不到幸运和缘分。在单纯而柔弱的连生面前，自己总以保护者自居，而银非是那么强大，仿佛艰难时总可以无条件地投进她的怀抱，并且她一定会让自己感到温暖和踏实。 在孤独的医女生涯里能和银非相遇，长今欣幸不已，原来不再对任何人敞开心扉的决心也早就抛到九霄云外了。 还有一件事也让长今感到十分高兴，那就是与医女施然的重逢。在内医院的庭院里，当时长今正用石臼捣药，偶尔经过的施然首先认出了长今，立刻跑过来打招呼。 这期间施然因为经验丰富，得以成为从二品淑仪娘娘的贴身医女。然而她眼圈发黑，仿佛笼罩着浓重的阴影，不知道是因为疲劳，还是因为忧虑。她笑的时候也是无精打采，让人情不自禁地为之担心。 “你是不是有什么难以启齿的烦心事啊？” 长今也知道这样问有些失礼，但不忍心坐视不问，于是就轻轻地问了一句。施然先是长长地叹了口气，然后艰难地开口说道。 “从做内人的时候开始，我就熟悉并相信你的人品，要不然我也不会跟你说。” “对。你不用担心，我会守口如瓶的。” “其实是淑仪娘娘得了难以启齿的疾病，尽管这样那样的办法也想了不少，可始终都不见好转，所以我非常担心。” “什么是难以启齿的疾病啊……” “据我观察，很可能是白斑病。” “白斑病？不就是皮肤上长出白色的斑点吗？对女人来说，这可是一种致命的病啊！” “正因为如此，所以才不敢公之于众，只能在私下里说嘛。殿下本来就很少过来，现在娘娘更加担心了。有机会的话你帮我在大殿那边打听打听。淑仪娘娘可能再也无缘目睹殿下的龙颜了。” “内医院怎么说？” “哪敢让内医院知道啊。” “是怕流言吗？” “淑仪娘娘吩咐千万不要告诉内医院。可是只靠我一个人，又实在想不出什么好办法控制病情。别说是治病了，万一有一天隐藏病情的事实被发现，恐怕不仅淑仪娘娘的处境糟糕，我也是自身难保了。” “是啊。没有内医院的指示，医女是不能随便给人治疗的。这事的确让人头疼。” 听完施然的话，长今也跟着担心起来，当然希望自己能帮上她的忙，只是一时之间哪里能有什么好办法，所以也只能干着急。 “我……我也知道这种事不能让你……” “你就说吧。只要是我能帮得上忙的，我一定尽力帮你。” “你能不能直接去给淑仪娘娘看看病啊？” "I?" “三个臭皮匠，顶个诸葛亮。凭我一个人的力量实在太吃力了，所以我只能求你帮忙。其实早在御膳房做饭的时候，我就发现你有着非凡的才华，不是吗？” “可我才刚刚结束学徒期，只是个初级医女啊。” “是啊，也许是我的要求太过无理了吧。” 看着施然满脸不高兴的样子，长今的心里也是矛盾重重。如果真是白斑病，那么自己在攻读医书的时候倒是碰到过记载的各种理论和处方，还记得有本书上说绒毛白斑或乳头白斑分别是前癌病变的症状，严重的时候能使人丧生。万一淑仪娘娘出点儿什么差错，那隐瞒病情的施然恐怕就性命难保了。 长今决定硬着头皮试试看。多一个人，就增加一份力量，总比施然独自吃力好吧，怕只怕事情没有想象中的顺利。 “倒不是我觉得麻烦，只是我怀疑自己是不是真的有那份能力。我担心万一白忙活一场，反而叫你更加难堪了。” “不会的。只要你肯过去看看，就已经帮了我的大忙了。” “在我失去味觉的时候，您不也曾经真诚地暗中帮助过我吗。就算是对您的报答吧，我也会尽力的。” “谢谢。我马上就去禀告淑仪娘娘。” 施然转忧为喜，连蹦带跳地跑开了，当天晚上，她就给长今捎来了消息。长今正把自己关在书库里翻找各种相关的医书，听完银非传来的消息后，毫不迟疑，立刻向淑仪殿跑去。 经过观察，发现白斑基本上集中在腋窝和胸部。 “娘娘，从什么时候开始出现这些症状的？” “半年多点儿，不到一年。” “是不是当时有什么事让您操心啊？” “这个嘛，好象正是从那时候开始，殿下就很少到我这里来了。” “我也觉得这是白斑病，也叫白癜风。” “是吗，那病情严重吗？” “不是的。皮肤上长出白色的斑点，并且慢慢扩散，这就是白癜风。这是一种因色素消失而导致的疾病，原因有许多种，其中忧虑引起的心口痛是主要原因之一。此外，气运凝滞导致淤血，血液不能滋养皮肤，也有可能引起白斑病。幸好娘娘这病是后天所得，只要找出原因，连根拔除，应该不会复发。娘娘是不是为国王殿下劳心过度，以至于此啊？” “这么说病情可以控制了？” “因为不能用药，所以我想先用针灸试试。这是我第一次尝试治疗这种病，所以不敢给娘娘任何确定的答复。另外还有一点也应该禀明娘娘，要想彻底治好白癜风，通常需要一年左右的时间。” “一年……太长了。” “请娘娘不用担心，我一定会动员一切可能的办法，尽量争取缩短时间。即使不能彻底治愈，但至少可以先控制到不太惹眼的程度。只要不是明亮的白昼，我保证能瞒过殿下的龙目。” “可是，你刚才说不能用药，为什么呀？如果针、药双管齐下，不是好得更快吗？”“宫里的所有药材都由内医院管理，不能越过正常程序随便用药。” "Yes, indeed." 淑仪的脸上流露出无奈，旁边的施然连忙说道。 “娘娘，还是先试试针灸吧。然后由我来找找药材。” “你？怎么找啊？” “只要娘娘给我开个出入证，我可以到铜丘的中药街去买回药材来。” “噢，这样也好。” 典医监还负责培养预备医员级的学生，包括前啣和生徒两种。为了保障其生活，国家特许他们经营药材生意，药材商最为集中的地方就是铜丘。 没有内医院、典医监、惠民署的联合许可，除了铜丘的其他任何地方都严禁药材生意，就连从乡下运药来的人也只能限定于铜丘交易。铜丘的药材商就在这里收购药材，然后转手贩卖给边远地区的药材商。实际上，铜丘的药材商掌握着全国药材的专卖特权。 另外，每年的10月到12月，大丘、全州、原州等地都要举办药令市。此时，负责宫廷药材事宜的审药便前往观察与监督。然而铜丘的药材商们暗中勾结审药官，从中获取各种便利。 普通百姓即便是有病在身，都很难弄到一副救命的良药，而药材商们则滥用国家赋予的权力，大肆谋取个人私利。 在施然的帮助下，长今以梅花针刺激患处，希望以此临时阻挡白斑的扩散。每次用针结束，长今便写好处方笺，交给施然。 风寒侵袭肝脏，引起气血阻塞，这也是白斑病的起因，所以必须同时使用治风的药材和保护肝脏的药材，共有黑芝麻、当归、苦参、连翘、白蒺藜、何首乌等祛风、化痰、清血的药材二十多种。因为煎熬当归根和白芷根的药水清洗患处效果极佳，所以长今嘱咐施然也一并买来。 施然拿着处方笺马不停蹄地去找药材商。 等待施然回来的时候，淑仪娘娘又跟长今说了很多话。在君王很少光顾的冷清宫殿里，平日只有尚宫和医女陪伴，所以淑仪很希望其他人能陪自己说话。 正因为这样，淑仪才欣然将患处展示给自己，长今也就由衷希望淑仪能成为一个幸福的女人。然而即使在跟长今说话的过程中，淑仪仍然不时深深地叹息。 “娘娘，我知道您很焦急，可是您一定要把心放宽才行啊。要想彻底治疗白癜风，还需要一段时间，而且我开出的消风丸您也必须坚持不懈地耐心服用，这样才能收到效果。” “是啊，我也知道不能过于忧虑，可是老管不住自己的心思。” “如果人的身体能够生机勃勃，而且气血流畅毫无阻碍，那么就不会有疾病缠身了。白斑病又叫白癜风，因为这也是一种风。所谓的风，指的就是气血过于集中在一起，这就好比大气流通不顺畅的时候就会产生气压差，从而引起大风。两者的原理是一致的。” “我也不知道该如何是好了。” “请您千万把心放宽。为什么会出现白癜风呢？就是因为气血通路受阻，内外难以疏通，所以与皮肤相关联的组织和附属器官都不能发挥各自的机能。针灸和药材固然重要，可是娘娘抛却忧虑却比这些更有效，也是更切实的治疗方法啊。” “我这是思君成疾啊。所以只要我无法抛开对于君王的思念之情，病就得不到治疗了？” “如果能得到殿下的宠爱，不就可以了吗？” “我当然希望是这样了，可这哪是件容易事啊？” “奴婢有句话不知道当讲不当讲，我觉得您还是必须抛开忧虑。要想得到殿下的宠爱，娘娘您首先要健康才行啊，总这样劳心伤神，当然会丢掉健康啦。” “真是太让我惊讶了。初次相见你竟然一眼就能看透我的内心焦急如焚……” “对不起。我见到娘娘心里觉得无比温暖，好象不是第一次见面似的，所以什么话都敢说了。请娘娘原谅。” “不是的。你能说出我焦急如焚的心情，我应该感谢你呀。” 一股怜悯之情油然而生，甚至有些心痛。能对初次相见的人袒露内心，可见她有多么孤独。这是一位柔弱却心地善良的女人。就像对待连生一样，长今现在能做的就是诚心诚意地帮助淑仪。 “娘娘，所谓的'病'其实是由'肠'和'焦楚之心'合并而成。'肠'和'焦楚之心'合并，就成了'病'，可见心可以影响到肠。内心过于焦急，就会
