The empress has made up her mind, even if Emperor Yuanqing is reluctant to give up, she still respects her decision, but the identity of the empress is here, she wants to leave far from being as easy as Liang Cairen.

First of all, we have to find a reason. Nowadays, the internal and external world is peaceful, and the prestige of the emperor is unprecedented, even surpassing the founding emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty. Liang Cairen's way of poisoning and leaving is not applicable, otherwise the Yuan and Qing emperors have to find a way Find someone behind the scenes to come out, but there is no one.

So in the end, it can only be determined as a death of illness, and the imperial concubine helped to make a fake. The next day, the whole Chang'an city knew that the queen was ill, and it was an emergency and serious illness.

After several years of development, the development of medicine in Great Wei can be described as rapid.

Physicians are not as stubborn as Confucian scholars. With the leadership of the top doctors in Taiyuan Hospital and the imperial decree of the Yuan and Qing emperors, the promotion of new medicine has hardly encountered any resistance. After all, the status of doctors is not high in the past. , The doctor's status rose linearly.

The original health center plan has blossomed everywhere in Dawei, and on average every three villages will be equipped with a health center.

After the establishment of the doctor assessment system, those who used to be bluffing and cheating with unqualified medical skills were eliminated, and some of them were published in newspapers and made public. The list of doctors who passed the assessment every year was also published, including their ID numbers and age characteristics. To prevent someone from impersonating others.

If you want to become a doctor and practice medicine, you must obtain a medical qualification certificate. Otherwise, even if you write a prescription without a medical certificate number and signature, the patient will not have a pharmacy to dispense the medicine even if you get the prescription.

For the Yuan and Qing emperors, it was a time when there was a shortage of population, and every commoner was very important, so he strongly supported the development of both the medical school and the gynecology school.

Over the past few years, the people have become more and more trusting of the health center. Officials have continued to publicize it every week and every month, including activities such as free medical consultations in the countryside carried out by the health center. Fushui incense ash can cure diseases.

The medical school has a very high status in the eyes of the common people, and the medical school receives a large number of applicants every year, even including foreigners from all over the world.

Therefore, as the dean of the medical school, Yuan Pei and Yang Zhongren, the envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital, personally diagnosed the disease, and no one believed that it was a fake.

Everyone had to believe that the queen was indeed seriously ill.

For a moment, no matter if it was true or not, the entire city of Chang'an fell silent. The people who had been favored by the empress over the years were all mourning. Some even went to temples to worship Buddha and pray, especially the orphans from the Salesian Bureau.

The Empress has been vigorously promoting charity these years. Not only in Chang'an City, but also the Salesian Bureaus in various provincial capitals across the country can be established and run well. It is mostly due to the Empress. Such a large project cannot be completed overnight.

As long as the queen is a bit greedy or negligent, this project will be reduced to the surface, but the queen has not let go of the establishment, even if she stays at home, she has not even been out of Chang'an City a few times.

Not only the Salesian Bureau, but also the Anjiyuan. The Salesian Bureau shelters orphans under the age of sixteen, and the Anjiyuan is set up for the disabled.

Although there are some sick or disabled children in the Salesian Bureau, they are still young and can be cultivated from an early age. As long as they are not incapacitated, they can learn a skill to make a living in the future. Moreover, the orphans in the Salesian Bureau are about Because of the absence of parents, those who grew up in the same bureau are equivalent to brothers and sisters, and anyone who is promising will help out.

After all, Dawei is still an era where benevolence, trustworthiness, propriety and righteousness come first. No matter whether these orphans want to gain a good reputation or sincerely do so, they will continue to do so.

The orphans of the Salesian Bureau are catching up with a good time, and the Great Wei is in short supply of talents. The Yuan and Qing emperors have great expectations for them, and try to cultivate them. They will have unlimited possibilities in the future. The people of Anjiyuan were not so lucky.

Most of these people are adults, and many of them are detested by their families and become beggars. Even if they want to be self-reliant, no one will hire them. He was abandoned by his parents and sent to the mountains to feed tigers and wolves.

These years have been better. With new crops such as potatoes, at least they will not lose a bite of food, but the life of these people is still a problem.

So after the Nursing Home and the Salesian Bureau were established one after another, the Queen proposed the Anji Home to accommodate these homeless disabled people.

There are temples and Taoist temples in charge of the nursing home, basically there is no need for the court to spend much, just visit the door on time every month and every quarter, and the orphans of the Salesian Bureau will leave when they grow up, and even return to the Salesian Bureau. It can be said that the almshouse has only expenses but no income, and it is completely spending money to support these people.

Although there are some saved people who are grateful for their own learning and earning money, but the drop in the bucket is far less than the daily consumption.

I don't know when I don't count, but once it is counted, there are more than 300 million disabled people in Da Wei, and this is not counting those who were drowned by their parents because of birth differences.

These include those soldiers who were injured on the battlefield. Although these soldiers were compensated, the treasury of Wei was not rich at that time. After the crossovers appeared, the Yuan and Qing emperors allocated funds from various profits, and gave compensation again according to the system after the military reform.

It would be better if these handicapped people just couldn’t speak or hear. In the Wei Dynasty, as long as the hands and feet are healthy, they can’t starve to death. These people are easy to arrange, and they don’t need to live in the Anjiyuan. They only need to receive a certain amount of money every month. Subsidies, and in order to avoid accidents, these subsidies are only rice, flour, grain and oil to ensure that they will not starve to death.

Those who are seriously ill or have incomplete hands and feet, lose the ability to survive and have nowhere to go can take their own initiative or entrust someone to send them to the Anjiyuan, and the Anjiyuan will take care of them until they die.

However, Anjiyuan can only ensure their basic living standards, and it is impossible to support them like a master. Moreover, the queen also came up with a way to help each other, so that these people form groups in twos and threes to help each other. This is an expense for people.

Even so, each Anjiyuan still needs a lot of manpower, and since the establishment of Anjiyuan, it can only be spread to the prefectures and counties, and cannot reach the villages and towns.

However, the establishment of Anjiyuan also added another job to the local people.

The queen has recorded all the money earned through charity auctions, whether it is new cosmetics or new items over the years, and used it openly and fairly in the Salesian Bureau and Anjiyuan, and set up a special charity foundation. Monthly newspapers will publish the monthly expenses.

Not to mention the other things the queen has done, the charity alone has won the love of the people of the whole Wei Dynasty, and even spread to the whole Asia through newspapers. The surrounding countries are full of praise for the queen, and the queens of all countries also regard the queen as a example.

Now that the queen is seriously ill, it can be said that the whole people are mourning.

Orphans from the Salesian Bureau would come here every day to pass by the palace and kowtow in the direction of the queen's palace. The people in the Anjiyuan would come if they could get out, even if they were in a wheelchair or went to the temple. These people were not the only ones who chanted scriptures to the queen, and ordinary people also sighed.

The queen was silent for a while when she heard the news, then she shook her head, her eyes were slightly red: "Go and persuade them not to do this, I didn't do all this for them, I just want to have a clear conscience."

She really didn't think about getting any rewards for doing these things. When she crossed over, she became a lady of silk and satin who could eat and drink, and then became a queen. She didn't suffer at all. On the contrary, she wore everything she needed. She is the best in the whole of Wei, and she does these charities to help the people of Wei, but more to show her ability to Emperor Yuan and Qing.

She didn't expect to be treated like this by the people before leaving, which moved her.

"For the sake of the sincerity of the people, why don't you wait a little longer?" Even though it was done, Emperor Yuan Qing still wanted to persuade him.

The so-called acting at home, in order to prove that the queen was seriously ill, he stayed by her side almost day and night these days, he even stopped going to court, and all the memorials were moved to Qingning Hall for processing.

Not only him, Wei Shu's concubine Xia Chan is also here, Wei Shu stays in the palace day and night just like him, concubine Xia Chan comes during the day and goes back at night, the Empress Dowager only visits once a day due to her status.

Princess Changle is still on her way back.

The queen showed helplessness when she heard the words: "I've made up my mind to answer No. 30 seven times again. I'll be really angry if you ask me again."

Emperor Yuanqing shrugged and smiled.

Probably because he was about to leave, the empress felt much more at ease with him, more at ease than ever before, she didn't even call her His Majesty any more, and the two got along like real siblings.

Not only to him, but also to Xia Chan, Liang Ping'an, etc., who also let go of the queen's posture, as if they had been friends for many years, and the empress' adjustment made the relationship between Emperor Yuan Qing and the traverser a lot easier. It's time for the first confession.

Sitting at the small table next to Emperor Yuan and Qing, Wei Shu sighed in his heart while doing his homework. When he first got the news, he really thought that the queen was seriously ill. Although the queen was not his biological mother, he got along as mother and child after all. After so many years, he was really taken aback. Who knew that when he came to Qingning Hall, he saw the Empress talking and laughing at Yan Yan with his father, Aunt Xia and the others.

Fortunately, outsiders thought that the emperor was heartbroken and the palace was full of grief, but they didn't know that there was no sadness at all in the Qingning Palace.

Xia Chan and the imperial concubine are also finishing their homework. There are piles of books in front of them. These are various account books and personnel records. Once the queen leaves, the things she manages will have to be handed over to them. The empress dowager and the concubine were in the palace affairs, and Xia Chan took over the charity work. They stayed in the Qingning Hall for the past few days mainly to learn from the empress.

The rest of the chores outside the palace will be handed over to Changle. After she got engaged, she had the Princess Mansion, and Emperor Yuanqing allowed her to come and go as she wanted.

"By the way, Aunt Xia, do you want to go out again this time?" Wei Shu asked Xia Chan.

Xia Chan shook her head: "I won't go out this year, I plan to go to Japan with the fleet next year."

She has been to almost all the countries in East Asia, except Japan. The ship that can safely cross the sea has not been researched before, but now she has researched it. She plans to go there next year. Japan is a place that needs them to promote it. .

Wei Shu put down his pen and said, "I heard that there is a rich businessman named Zhu Xun, does Aunt Xia know him?"

Xia Chan was surprised: "How does His Highness know him?"

"It seems that we know each other." Wei Shu said with a smile, "I heard someone mention him in the teahouse a few days ago, and I think this person's experience is very interesting."

Back then, the fire of Journey to the West triggered a wave of gold digging in the West. Many people followed in the footsteps of Tang Seng and went to Tianzhu. Indeed, many people made a fortune, but the most powerful one belongs to Zhu Xun. It is said that he He was only fifteen or sixteen years old when he went there. He has gone through all kinds of hardships and developed into the richest businessman on the Silk Road today. It is said that he was almost picked up by a princess from a country in the south of Tianzhu and called as a son-in-law. His experience is as wonderful as that of Tang Monk.

Wei Shu saw the whole world with the eyes of the traversers, and was very yearning for the outside world, and at the same time was very interested in this kind of people who dared to take risks.

Xia Chan didn't know what she thought of, her expression was a bit weird, but she quickly returned to normal, and smiled: "This Zhu Xun is indeed a talent, but he probably won't come back to Dawei in the short term. When I left Tianzhu, he changed to Hei Khan, if His Highness is really interested in him, I can ask someone to contact him."

"Forget it then." Wei Shu shook his head, "I just want to hear what he has seen and heard along the way, and I don't need to bother him about it."

Although I can hear it from Aunt Xia, she is there for cultural exchanges, and she is a distinguished guest to other countries, so she may not be able to see the real situation of the local bottom. It is a pity that he is still young, even if his father allows him to I won't go, live again, the courage to seek death is gone, he still wants to live well.

"There is one other person, Aunt Xia—"

I wanted to ask again, but was interrupted by my father, who raised his eyes and glanced over: "Have you finished your homework?"

Wei Shu: "..."

It is said that the queen mother is seriously ill, why does he still have so many homework to do? !

The author has something to say: Wei Shu: I have endured pain that I should not have endured at my age.
