Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

The idea of ​​the pharmacy is very straightforward. If there is a maternity hospital supervised by the government next to their home, it will be a kind of recognition for their reputation and reputation.It is only good for your own business.Several large herbal medicine shops directly submitted a letter to the prince in charge of this matter, and could provide ready-made yards for free or half price.

The crown prince held these submissions and asked the officials of the East Palace and the head of the household department to check the size of the courtyards and the newness of the houses provided by the pharmacies.In case of reconstruction, the owner's opinion, etc., must be carefully collected one by one, and all inquiries should be made clear.

The subordinate officials of the Eastern Palace also joined the prince in this investigation.

Three days later, the prince selected six courtyards, three of which were located in areas where the middle-income residents lived, and three of which were close to the areas where the poor lived.

"Father, my son wants to do a trial in these courtyards first. Wealthy families generally have financial resources, so please ask the stable wife to come to deliver the baby. Poorer families mostly give birth at home. If they can send their mothers to the house for free Go to these maternity hospitals, and the children and adults will be safe in the end, so these maternity hospitals will not be built in vain."

The sage carefully looked at the prince's plan, from the staffing and training of the stable woman and the medical woman to the basic preparation of medicines.

"My son is very thoughtful. Just do as you want."

"Father, the brochures about puerpera and newborns. My son also summoned professionals who are proficient in obstetrics and pediatrics to compile a rough guidance on care of pregnant women and newborns."

This "Hundred Days of Women and Children" is from one hundred days before childbirth to one hundred days after childbirth.The [-] days before delivery are mainly about the mother, and the [-] days after delivery are mainly about the newborn.From the time when a woman is about seven months pregnant, she can go to the maternity hospital for free consultation three times.After seven months, once a month, there are moxibustion methods to correct dystocia positions, guidance on kneeling postures, etc.For newborns, there are umbilical cord care, infant pats and hiccups, supplementary feeding methods for insufficient breast milk, and even how to bathe newborns.

At the end, the name of a well-known woman doctor in Beijing, the pharmacy where he works and the maternity hospital assisted by the pharmacy are attached.

Sage fingers tapped the last page.

The prince quickly explained, "Father, although these pharmacies are for fame and fortune, they also provide help for pregnant women and young children. I want to erect a monument in front of the maternity hospital to commend these shops."

The saint nodded in understanding.

"As for the helpers in the maternity hospital, I don't want to spend any more money to hire them. Women who enjoy free childbirth can come to the maternity hospital to work in the future, such as helping with cleaning, or washing the bedding. Use your help to do things and deduct expenses. Erchen also wants those girls in the Salesian Bureau to go to the maternity hospital after the age of seven to be a helper, so that they can learn some skills of medical girls. When they grow up, Specialize in teaching for one or two years, and you can also be sent to work in maternity hospitals in prefectures and counties."

Nowadays, poor families often abandon their baby girls.The Salesian Bureau adopted baby girls, usually waiting for others to adopt, especially those with disabilities, and when they grew up, they would also help out in the Salesian Bureau.

"Okay, okay. Chengxian, work hard. Be kind, my son has a kind heart." The saint was deeply moved.

The prince is in Beijing, busy adding bricks and tiles to the future population of the empire.Jia Amnesty was on the sidelines, busy defending the borders against the enemy for the safety of the current people of the empire.

Every autumn and winter, life on the grasslands is difficult, and Tatars will inevitably commit crimes.Several small and large-scale offenders were beaten back.

When Jia Amnesty arrived in the northwest, he was accused of being a battalion officer, leading 1000 people in the battalion to train every day.Although he has the title of the son of Duke Rong, he can still be mixed with soldiers and generals in the army.As for Jia She's long-term followers—Jia Wu and the others, they were originally left to Jia She by the old country, and their fathers and ancestors were all born with the old country's father and survived among the dead on the Northwest battlefield.When they were young, they also went to the battlefield with Jia Daishan.This time Jia Amnesty came to practice in the Northwest Army, and Jia Daishan also assigned several other proud people around him to his son.These dozens of people crowded around Jia She every time, and every time it was his battalion's turn to fight, Jia She, with his high martial arts skills and strong guards around him, took the lead every time.And the battalion he led, inspired by such a battalion officer, has long since become a force that cannot be underestimated in the battle.

Next year will be the tenth year of Zhenbei Hou's border defense.The saint has always adhered to the principle of changing the generals on the border every ten years. He will not let anyone work hard in the north for a lifetime without the expectation of returning to Beijing;This time when Bowling came over, he came more than a year earlier to take over.However, the Ministry of War gave Zhenbeihou an order to take half a year to hand over.Only in May next year can we leave the border and return to Beijing.Counting back and forth, it was only about half a year before he was stationed in the north, that is, ten full years.

The Marquis of Zhenbei watched as Jia Amnesty led a battalion of soldiers back, and Baolinghou's eldest son, second son and third son each led a battalion back.For the performance of these four young players on the battlefield, Zhenbeihou kept praising them in front of bowling.

"Master Hou's nephew has the demeanor of the old Duke. The three sons of Lord Hou are not too far behind. It's true that a tiger father has no dogs."

Bao Linghou was proud of himself, and pretended to be modest, "The Marquis of Zhenbei is too famous, too famous. Those sons of yours are really outstanding talents in their own right. According to the old man, in time, he will be able to become a Marquis based on his military exploits." of."

Bao Linghou's words tickled Zhenbeihou's heart.Although he came from a martial arts family, his father and grandfather did not have any hereditary honors.Although there is a younger sister who gave birth to two sons and one daughter in the palace, the reason why the saint treats him differently.But his title of Marquis of Zhenbei was also earned by himself, fighting with swords and guns among thousands of troops.Otherwise, my sister has been demoted from Concubine Shu to Concubine Hui, how could the saint still trust him, the Marquis of Zhenbei, and let him lead the army.

The past ten years of guarding the border not only made him a marquis, but also fulfilled his two sons and one son.The three sons are all generals who came out of fighting.All because of his military exploits, he was able to gain a foothold in the army. This is also Zhenbeihou, the pillar of support in the Northern Army.

Returning to Beijing next year, whether or not to bring his son back has always been a question that has been circling in Zhenbeihou's mind.Staying here is a chance to win military merits; but he is not here, and his son has no care.For the sake of his own three sons and nephew, Bao Linghou must be biased.If you take it back, it will be difficult if you want to have the real power opportunity to lead the army.

Marquis Zhenbei shook his head, the day to return to Beijing is still far away, and there are still a few months to go, so he can think slowly, it is important to guard the border first.

When Shi Hou was young, he followed his father and grandfather to guard the border.When he came to the border again this time, he knew in his heart that it was the sage who gave him the opportunity to lead his next generation.Because the son and nephew Jia She are cousins, and the nephew is the only companion of the prince, they are inseparable from each other.This is to reserve generals for the prince and accumulate power in the army!

With such an opportunity, Shi Hou understood clearly in his heart, and he treated Zhenbei Hou more politely.It is good for Zhenbei Hou and good for himself to be able to pass the six months smoothly.That's why he borrowed words to convey his desire to keep Zhenbeihou's son and continue to guard the border.

When the battle report was delivered to the capital, the saint was discussing political affairs with the cabinet in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.After reading the battle report, the sage handed it over to all the cabinet ministers for reading.

After all the cabinet ministers had seen it, the sage said to Jia Daishan in front of all the cabinet ministers: "Mr. Rong Guo, Enhou is not weaker than you were back then."

Jia Daishan smiled modestly, "Sage, Enhou has been under your eyes for many years, studying in the palace, and you sent someone to teach you about literature and martial arts. This song should belong to you, sage."

The sage accepted Jia Daishan's push with a smile, then turned his head and said to Zhang Taifu:

"Teacher, is the son-in-law I picked for you good enough?"

Zhang Taifu laughed immediately, "The sage's eyes are like torches, and it is my daughter's blessing to choose Enhou."

Zhang Taifu said while cupping his hands to thank the saint.

The saint was more and more satisfied.

"Mr. Rong Guo, the Ministry of War first draws up rewards according to the battle report, and report it as soon as possible. Send it to the border before the year."

"Yes." Jia Daishan stood up and answered, putting a copy of the battle report in his sleeve.

This year, the weather is basically smooth.The sporadic battles at the border are just the icing on the cake for the government.Even a few snowfalls are of good thickness.The people of Gyeonggi are immersed in a peaceful and happy atmosphere.

After talking about the battle report in the northwest, the sage called Liang Jiu and showed the map of the northwest.

The saint's finger slid along the northwest line.He knew in his heart that in the past 20 years, he had suppressed the unstable factors in the ruling and opposition parties by means of force.But in the northwest line, as long as there is a cowardly king among the descendants, he will be bullied and bitten by these peeping tigers and wolves.

Guo Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry asked tentatively: "Does the sage want to use troops against the Northwest?"

The sage looked up at the cabinet ministers and sighed helplessly, "It's not that I want to use troops in the northwest, but the Tatars are eyeing it. The military resources in the north every year are not a small amount. It is necessary to use troops in the northwest sooner or later. Things. If I don't take advantage of the fact that I can still ride on horseback, I'm afraid I will bring disaster to my descendants in the future."

Guo Shangshu nodded, the truth is true, but to fight, you must have weapons, uniforms, and armor... The more Guo Shangshu thought about it, the uglier his face became.

Zhang Taifu knew that the battle against the Northwest was inevitable.

"If the weather is good next year, I can save some food and silver. I'm afraid it won't be enough."

The rest are concerned, the court seems to have nothing to do, but any move will require a large amount of grain and silver.

After all the cabinet ministers had dispersed, the prince leaned over the Kanyu map, and swipe his finger along the place where the sage slid.

"Chengxian, what do you think?"

"Father, my son sees that using troops against the northwest is not only difficult in terms of logistics and supply of food and grass. My court's military equipment, according to my son, still needs to be improved."

The sage raised his eyebrows, waiting for the prince to continue.

"The firearms battalion currently has a single barrel, which is not powerful enough. Every time it is ready-to-install and ignites. If it can be improved, it will play a big role in front of the battle. There are also artillery, which are too bulky and not suitable for dragging to the grassland. Build For the iron of swords and guns, I think that the tempering method should be changed, and see how we can make more weapons that can cut iron like mud. In this way, the odds of winning against the northwest will be slightly higher."

The sage nodded and tapped the table with his fingers. After the prince participated in the government for half a year, he could see clearly that the prince is an old-fashioned person who has a big picture, but uses small things to make big gains.Whether it is river treatment or maternity hospitals, we start from the subtleties, and only after the investigation is clear can we do it in a down-to-earth manner.The short-term results are gratifying, and the long-term results after ten or 20 years are even more promising.

The saint is gratified that at his son's age, he has such a heart to do things. If he can be more ruthless, the foundation of his family will be more secure.
