[Red Mansions] Lin's first genius doctor

Tai Hospital is a special department.

It is not an important central department, but in terms of geographical location, it is better than the six departments that cannot be separated from the operation of the imperial court, and it is closer to the palace.

In this imperial city with every inch of land and gold, the Tai Hospital proudly occupies a large area, which is larger than the Ministry of Officials who is in charge of the entire world's personnel scheduling and is called the "Heaven Department".

As the immediate superior, Imperial Physician Qin has no pretensions at all, and cheerfully took Lin Jiang to visit the Imperial Hospital in person.

He is over sixty years old, he has practiced medicine like an idiot all his life, and is loyal to the Supreme Emperor. He is deeply afraid that no one will be available to the Supreme Emperor when he is old, so he has always promoted and helped young talents in the Imperial Hospital, and has never suppressed them. .

He was even more relieved to have a doctor like Lin Jiang who turned out to be beneficial to the Taishang Emperor's illness.

"We have entered the hospital three times in total, come, come in with me."

Lin Jiang followed Qin Yuanzheng into the main entrance, and saw that the first entrance was a lobby, which was tall and wide, and this was the face of the Tai Hospital.

The imperial doctor Qin introduced: "Whenever concubines and princes send people to invite the imperial physician, they will meet and greet them in this hall."

Imperial physicians have a strict on-duty system.

There are a total of 12 imperial physicians and deputy envoys who sit in the lobby in shifts every day, specially to wait for the palace.

The imperial physicians who are on duty in the "lobby on duty" are determined not to wander around, nor can they accept posts from officials' families outside to earn extra money. Even if no one in the palace is sick, everyone will have to sit for a day.

And the rest of the imperial physicians can't just take a vacation and not go to work—they are waiting in the second entrance courtyard to be backup imperial physicians, sorting out their own pulse cases and prescriptions when they are on duty.Of course, if there are posts from royal relatives, honorable ministers, and ministers, they can run away to earn money happily.

Lin Jiang followed Qin Yuanzheng through the lobby and walked back.

The second time she entered the courtyard was not a big room, but divided into more than ten small rooms. What surprised her most was that they were divided by departments!

I saw the first few rooms with plaques of Dafangmai (Internal Medicine), Xiaofangmai (Pediatrics) and Qianjinfang (Gynecology). There were at least five or six imperial physicians sitting in the rooms, and they all stood up and greeted each other.Going further back, the house is smaller, and there are fewer doctors, and there are only one or two imperial physicians in the "articulate" and "pox rash", which seems a bit sparse.

When they saw Qin Yuanzheng, they became more enthusiastic, which shows that Xiaoke doctors are not very popular in the palace.

Lin Jiang even saw the prototype of a modern hospital in it.

She couldn't help asking the Imperial Physician Qin: "I thought that the imperial physicians were all like you, and you are a master of martial arts, and can take care of your Majesty comprehensively."

The Supreme Emperor is only willing to trust the Qin imperial doctor, but his old man does not only have family genetic diseases.The Supreme Emperor has lived for such a long time, and he must have a fever, skin disease, toothache, eye pain and nose pain.

But I heard from the emperor that the Supreme Emperor doesn't need any other imperial physician except Qin imperial physician.It can be seen that Qin Taiyi grasps all diseases and belongs to an all-rounder.

Qin Yuanzheng smiled and said: "Although the imperial physicians all know how to apply acupuncture on the veins, they can see simple symptoms, but when it comes to the deeper aspects, they each have their own strengths. For example, I am from the Dafang Meridian. When it comes to bone setting Bone setting and other surgeries, although they can barely do it, they are not good at all.”

Just like the martial arts masters in the world, they all know a thing or two about the south fist and the north kick, but the real housekeeping skills must be different from each other.Some people are good at swords, some use knives, and some rely on a pair of fists to walk the world, each has its own specialization.

However, since it serves the court, internal medicine, gynecology and pediatrics account for the majority, and doctors in other departments are naturally scarce.

Doctor Qin was old and strong, looking at his gray beard and wrinkled face, he actually walked faster than Lin Jiang without panting.

Soon after another door, we arrived at the third entrance courtyard.

The third entrance is much quieter, and it is the residence of imperial physicians staying on duty at night. There are more than [-] small partitioned rooms in total.

It’s okay to take a nap if you usually want to. There are three beds in a room, which happens to be one medical envoy and two deputy envoys.

There are also several locked rooms on the east side of the courtyard, which are distinctive at first glance.

Qin Yuanzheng smiled and pointed to the first three rooms and said: "This is the room of me and the two vice presidents. We are the only ones who live alone, so we are all locked. Your salary is the same as that of the vice presidents, so naturally the house is also. Yesterday, the inner eunuch came to clean the room for you, and you will come in with a fine lock some other day."

When Lin Jiang saw the room on duty, he couldn't help but ask, "Do I have to be on duty at night?"

Qin Yuan was looking at the girl who was younger than his granddaughter, shaking his head and smiling: "You are a little girl, how can you be on duty at night like us?"

"The Taishang Emperor and the Emperor are also very gracious. Not only do you not have to be on duty at night, you don't even have to come to the Tai Hospital every day to work. You only need to go to the palace every other day to give the two majesties a peace pulse and a whole prescription." , stay until noon and then you can leave the palace. For the rest of the time, just be your boudoir girl."

Qin Yuanzheng also told her like a grandfather: "You are so good at acupuncture and moxibustion, you can think of it as a female worker. The Supreme Emperor said that you must do more women's things at home, otherwise how will you get married in the future?"

Lin Jiang was overjoyed when he heard the words: What could be happier than going to work and taking a day off?That is to work half of the class but get two jobs!

What a surprise treat!

Let's say that the two vice presidents of the Imperial Hospital immediately burst into tears when they heard about Lin Jiang's treatment: because Imperial Physician Qin is regarded as the emperor's personal physician, and his age exceeds the limit, so he is not on duty.The remaining 25 imperial physicians are on duty at night in rotation, and basically only have one night shift a month. As for the deputy envoys and Guan Gou, due to the large number of people, the shifts are even looser.

There are only two hospital vice-deputies, as the second-in-command of the Taiyuan Hospital, who are responsible for leadership and must ensure that one of them is always in the palace!

In other words, the two of them took turns working the night shift, and one of them would always sleep in the palace, and the first day of the new year was no exception.

Even because of the grand banquet in the imperial court on the first day of the new year, the harem banquet was complete, and the royal relatives and relatives gathered, there were always a few weak people who were afraid of the cold and fell ill, and the work of the imperial hospital was busier than usual.

In the worst two years in the past, these two vice presidents all worked overtime and worked together for the entire New Year's Eve, and they were really exhausted.When I saw the emperor's reward on the first day of the new year, I felt that the money was not good.

Those days were not 996, but 007 at all.

Now a new colleague from the same hospital came, and he didn't have to work the night shift. The two hospital assistants really fainted from crying.

He also thought that the colleagues who came by airborne like this, and the two His Majesties escorting them must be arrogant and arrogant people. I am afraid that they will have to swallow their anger in the future, and they just feel that this day will be impossible.

---

Lin Jiang was taken by Qin Yuanzheng personally, and met all the seniors one by one, especially the two vice presidents.

The imperial hospital is not the Qingshui yamen, and it is a necessary unspoken rule to invite an imperial doctor to give an extra red seal in the palace.And imperial physicians can also take on private work outside the palace, which is even more fat income.

Sure enough, as Daiyu expected, what they valued was not money, but Lin Jiang's attitude and intentions.

As a woman, at the age of 12, her medical skills can be praised by Qin Yuanzheng and recognized by His Majesty—not only the two vice presidents, but the entire Imperial Hospital is very nervous about welcoming this person by airborne.

It is said that they are proud of their talents, and they are very afraid that this imperial doctor Xiaolin will not allow others in his eyes, and relying on His Majesty's importance to stir up wind and rain, ruining the stability and peace of this imperial hospital, and ruining everyone's wealth and official career.

But now that they heard that this imperial doctor Xiaolin was basically the same as imperial doctor Qin, that he was a dedicated doctor and only responsible for the emperor and the emperor, everyone was half relieved.

Seeing her bright smile and straightforward speech, saying hello to them one by one and not mentioning junior gifts, but actually preparing meeting gifts for everyone, and the ones they prepared were all things commonly used by women from aristocratic families in Beijing, I felt more at ease: Yes, After all, she is a girl, and it is said that she is from a wealthy family. After that, she naturally wants to find a son-in-law to live her own life.

This hospital must not be a lifelong career for her, she is more like a guest.

So the imperial physicians did not show any hostility towards Lin Jiang, only the two vice presidents expressed their envy for her not being on duty.However, this imperial doctor Xiaolin was kind and polite, and it was a surprise to know that she was courteous. Seeing that she did not intend to steal the limelight, the two hospital assistants breathed a sigh of relief and laughed.
