Chen Jingke came all the way to the lobby and met Ma Zhou. It was not the first time that the two parties met, but it was the first time they met in private.
They were still very polite to each other, and they exchanged pleasantries for a while before getting down to business.
Chen Jingke couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard that he was here for the management method of news periodicals. When he presented the memorial to Li Shimin, he was laughed at severely.
He didn't say anything at that time, but what he was thinking about was thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, waiting to slap the other person in the face.
Li Shimin probably guessed what he was thinking, so he asked Ma Zhou to take charge of this matter to avoid losing face.
But he really had nothing to say: "My views on this matter have been written down in the memorial, and those are the same words."
Ma Zhou asked: "I wonder what you think of the method I proposed?"
Chen Jingke thought for a while and said: "It's very conservative, but it's better to be safe."
Ma Zhou smiled and said: "I know, thank you for your advice."
The best way to keep the Tang Dynasty prosperous is to play it safe. This is a compliment to him, at least he thinks so.
After talking about the business, he said politely: "I am seriously ill and would like to ask Master Sun for some help. Is that possible?"
Chen Jingke smiled and said: "If you're from Mashe, doctors just treat people. Is there anything you can do? Come on, I'll take you to see the master right now."
Ma Zhou stood up and said, "Thank you, Master."
The two of them came to the courtyard where Sun Simiao studied medical skills. Chen Jingke found a nurse and asked, "Is the master here?"
The man replied: "The master of the temple is performing an operation on the patient."
Chen Jingke asked casually: "Appendicitis?"
The Taoist boy said: "Yes."
Chen Jingke nodded and said to Ma Zhou, "Sorry, I'm afraid I have to wait for a while."
Ma Zhou said politely: "As for the real person, I came at the wrong time, so I should have waited."
The two of them came to the living room, sat down separately for the guest of honor, and chatted while waiting.
Chen Jingke also felt helpless. Yi Nu must be jumping around and cursing at this moment.
But Ma Zhou came to visit him nominally with the emperor's orders. It was easy to say that Sun Simiao was here, but he had to accompany him when he was not.
The problem of appendicitis has existed since ancient times. In ancient times, people who contracted this disease were likely to die.
After overcoming operations such as caesarean section, meat cutting and bone setting, Sun Simiao's team began to attack the internal organs.
Appendicitis can be said to be the simplest type of abdominal surgery. Just cut open the abdomen to find it and cut it. This thing is completely redundant, and there will be no big problem if you cut too much.
Moreover, it is not difficult to find patients in this field. In other words, Zixiaoguan never lacks all kinds of patients. There is no need to look for them, the patients come to you on their own initiative.
The operation and post-operative summary took a long time. Chen Jingke and Ma Zhou waited for more than an hour without waiting for anyone.
The two of them didn't sit still. They talked about government affairs, religion, literature and medicine. Naturally, they also talked about Ma Zhou's illness.
After careful questioning, I found out that he had diabetes mellitus.
Chen Jingke felt sympathy in his heart. This disease cannot be cured even in the 21st century, let alone in ancient times. It can only be controlled by long-term insulin injections.
In this era without insulin, there are no effective prevention and treatment methods. It is a high-risk disease.
He doesn’t know much about diabetes, but as the name suggests, he knows the most basic prevention and treatment methods just by looking at the name.
In addition, he has learned medical skills from Sun Simiao for so long, and combined with some knowledge from his previous life, he can also make many suggestions.
"Diabetes is a series of problems caused by problems with the body's pancreas, leading to excessive blood sugar."
Seeing Ma Zhou's confused face, he thought for a while and said: "To put it simply, there is something wrong with your pancreas and it cannot digest the sugar produced in your body. Too much sugar in the body will cause many problems."
Although Ma Zhou still didn't understand it very well, he at least knew that it was related to sugar, so he asked, "Is there a cure?"
Chen Jingke shook his head and said: "No, it is already very difficult to control this disease. I can only say that half depends on support and half depends on the weather."
Ma Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "Can't you speak more tactfully?"
Chen Jingke sighed: "I'm already very tactful."
Ma Zhou was stunned for a moment before he realized. Half relying on raising children and half looking at the sky are euphemisms. Doesn't that mean he can only look at the sky?
It was a matter of life and death, and it was difficult for him to remain calm, so he asked: "Is it really... that there is no other way?"
Chen Jingke sighed secretly in his heart, but still reassured: "You can try to control it, but the method is extremely harsh and requires long-term persistence. Once you relax, all your previous efforts will be wasted. Even if you persist in doing it, there is no guarantee that it will be effective."
Ma Zhou said with a solemn expression: "Sir, please tell me."
Chen Jingke immediately told him some of the methods he knew: no sugar, no sweets if you can, no fat meat, egg yolks, and animal livers.
You should also eat less staple food such as rice and noodles. You should not drink tea or porridge. Drink boiled water when you are thirsty. You can eat grains, lean meat, fish and shrimp, and eat more vegetables.
Eat less fruit, but as much fruit as you eat, you should reduce the portion of your staple food accordingly.
Exercise at moderate intensity every day to stay in shape and not gain weight. Pay attention to rest, go to bed early and get up early...
There are dozens of them in total.
Ma Zhou's scalp went numb when he heard this, and he said, "This is really a disease of wealth."
Chen Jingke smiled and said: "It's really hard to say. At least in terms of diet and exercise, poor people can meet the standards without deliberately doing it."
Ma Zhou shook his head and laughed, saying: "That's true... Do I need to take medicine?"
Chen Jingke said: "Of course you need it, but you have to wait for the master to come and prescribe the medicine for you. I still know too little about medical skills."
Not only was he unable to prescribe medicine, but even the maintenance methods just mentioned were actually summarized by Sun Simiao based on the fragmentary knowledge he provided.
He just looked at the final results and did not participate in it, so he didn't know much about the prescriptions.
About half an hour later, Sun Simiao finally came over with a tired look on his face.
The two sides exchanged a few polite words and then got straight to the point. When they learned that Ma Zhou had diabetes, Sun Simiao's expression became serious.
After some diagnosis and treatment, a very bad result was obtained. His condition was already serious and treatment was necessary.
Moreover, Sun Simiao also bluntly said: "This disease can only be controlled but cannot be cured..."
The last chance of luck in Ma Zhou's heart was shattered, but fortunately he was mentally prepared and did not lose his composure. Instead, he said calmly:
"Please do whatever you can to Master Sun."
Sun Simiao talked about the methods and taboos of recuperation, which were similar to what Chen Jingke said, but more detailed.
Then a prescription was given: "Both Astragalus and Tianqi have good effects on diabetes. This prescription is mainly composed of these two herbs, and Mashe people can take it for a long time."
"Thank you, Master." Ma Zhou solemnly put away the prescription, and he felt much more relaxed.
Although this disease is said to be incurable, having a specific prescription can still make people feel at ease, not to mention that this prescription was prescribed by the medical sage Sun Simiao.
After watching the sick day, it was completely dark, and the curfew had already started.
The curfew was very strict, and even Ma Zhou did not dare to break in. The Wuhou who patrolled the night did not care who he was, and they would first beat him up and send him to the official.
So he stayed at Zixiao Temple that night.
Most temples have special guest rooms to accommodate pilgrims. Naturally, Zixiao Temple also has one, so there is no shortage of accommodation for him.
After everything was arranged, Chen Jingke hurried back to his yard, where there were two little tigers waiting for him to feed.
…
The sudden supplement of Mochizuki Tan was unexpected. No one expected that the journal could be like this, but it did not prevent them from buying and paying attention to the content of this issue.
Not surprisingly, the article on enfeoffment became the center of the topic.
As a time traveler, Chen Jingke knew very well that if the hyped topic guided public opinion, the next dozen articles would all discuss the pros and cons of enfeoffment.
Not all of these articles were in favor of it. Some of them clearly stated that chariots and horses were opposed to both world feudalism and enfeoffment. Their arguments were based on the negative consequences brought about by the enfeoffment of the Han and Jin Dynasties.
Without Weng Yingqing's "On Enfeoffment", these articles would indeed have played a great role in prompting some people to stand up against enfeoffment.
But with it, these opposing articles had the opposite effect, making readers think that overseas enfeoffment was a long-term solution.
Weng Yingqing successfully gained a huge reputation and became one of the leaders of the anti-shifeng movement, and he also gathered a group of young people around him.
Every one or two days, he would call everyone together under the guise of a cultural conference. In addition to jointly submitting a petition against the world, he would also talk about his ideals and aspirations in life, and look forward to the future.
It can be said to be high-spirited.
But slowly, more and more people have come to realize that it is still unclear whether overseas enfeoffment is good or bad, and there is no need to take unnecessary risks.
It is not feasible to grant the title of governor in the world, and it is also not feasible to enfeoff overseas.
As a result, conflicts first arose within the anti-world feudal censorship camp. Some opposed the world feudalism but supported overseas enfeoffment. Weng Yingqing was one of the core members of this faction.
Some people are both anti-feudal and anti-feudal. They would rather keep the status quo and do nothing than take risks.
But fortunately, because of the top priority issue of being appointed governor of the world, both sides were very restrained, and they just argued with each other without breaking up.
In the history of counter-incarnation and assassination, they are still allies.
It is now the end of the year, and all the officials from various frontiers and local officials who have returned to Beijing will come back to celebrate the New Year and participate in the annual imperial meeting.
In the past, they could only express their opinions through memorials in other places. Now that they have returned to the capital, they are directly involved, creating even greater momentum.
Finally, at the Sino-Korean meeting on December 15th, they jointly submitted a petition to persuade the emperor to give up the title of imperial governor.
In order to prevent internal disharmony, Weng Yingqing and others temporarily gave up the proposal of enfeoffing overseas, and first concentrated their efforts on resolving the issue of world enfeoffment as governor.
Facing the massive opposition, the nobles had pale faces and did not dare to say a word. Li Shimin resigned on the spot in anger.
However, the dismissal of the government did not change everyone's determination. On the contrary, it strengthened everyone's will. There must be no compromise on this matter.
Countless memorials were sent to the palace every day, basically all of them were for admonishment.
Time passes unknowingly, and the winter solstice is soon approaching, and the annual Dajiao Festival is about to come.
Chinese people have had a habit since ancient times to solve all the things that can be solved before the end of the year and don't leave them for the next year.
The biggest issue in the Tang Dynasty at present is to appoint the governor of the world. Not only did Li Shimin take the opportunity to prepare for the end, but the ministers also did not want to postpone this matter until next year and prepared to resolve the matter before the winter solstice.
In the early morning of December 20, when the officials once again petitioned to stop the Shifeng governor, Li Shimin finally backed down.
But before the ministers were happy, he immediately put forward a condition: the imperial title of governor could be stopped, but the enfeoffment must be implemented, even if the nobles were granted overseas.
The nobles were no longer as afraid of being sent overseas as before, and after a moment of refusal, they agreed.
At this time, the anti-Shifeng camp broke up on the spot. Weng Yingqing and others thought that their appeal had an effect, so they naturally raised their hands in agreement.
The anti-sevolutionary and anti-feudal faction got more and more wrong, and they quickly jumped out to oppose it.
However, at this time, the clan also betrayed, and the reason was not complicated. There was a high probability that they would be involved in the overseas enfeoffment.
No one wants to be raised like a pig in China. Although it is difficult overseas, it is only one-third of an acre of land that belongs to oneself. Only fools don't want it.
The situation can be said to have changed again and again, and the anti-feudalists suddenly became a minority.
With the unanimous consent of the emperor, nobles, clan, and enfeoffment faction, the enfeoffment resolution was passed on the spot, and the speed was jaw-dropping.
The anti-feudalists didn't even have a chance to interrupt.
After the news spread to the people after he retired from the court, the people's views on the matter were completely different from those of the officials.
In this era, communication was not smooth, and the channels for people to obtain information were very narrow. At this time, the people were still in the information cocoon created by Wangyue Tan.
I think it is not good to enfeoff the world, but it is better to entrust overseas.
So when they heard that the imperial court had passed the resolution to cancel the world feudal title and replace it with enfeoffment, they couldn't help but cheer.
Hearing the faint cheers coming from outside, Zheng Song said: "How ignorant the world is."
Wang Xiuqi glared at Cui Yun and said, "If it weren't for the false information you provided, how could we be so passive? Not only did we fail to stop the New Deal, but we actually helped them complete their conspiracy to enfeoff."
Cui Yun said angrily: "You..."
Lu Xiu stood up and reconciled: "Okay, please stop saying a few words. No one wants to see this situation happen."
Wang Xiuqi immediately turned his gun and said: "Your Lu family is not much better. Isn't Fang Xuanling the son-in-law of your Lu family? Why haven't you even entered the door yet?"
"Bang." Lu Xiu slapped the table and said, "Say one more thing."
Cui Gan quickly stopped him and said: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, Brother Wang also made a mistake in anger."
"Bah." Wang Xiuqi said to him again: "Don't pretend to be a good person here. Aren't you the number one family listed in the clan annals? Your ranking is not only above the royal family but also above all of us."
"Can you come up with something? Besides sighing here, what else can you do? Is this the ability of the First Family?"
Cui Qian didn't expect that the flames of war would actually burn him, and he became furious and said: "You have the nerve to criticize others, but you don't know what you are."
"Wang Renyou is from your Wang family in Taiyuan, right? His daughter has just entered the East Palace as a concubine... Haha, if you send a woman to the palace at this time, your Wang family won't want to surrender, right?"
So an internal fight broke out, and finally the families broke up.
