Chapter 75 Isn’t it beautiful?

Of course Li Xiang didn't know that some people were committing suicide. He was thinking about something else.

"Grandfather, as the saying goes, the past cannot be changed, but the future can still be pursued. In order to avoid similar things from happening, my grandson suggests that we should establish a medical school similar to the Imperial Academy in Chang'an, recruit famous doctors from all over the world, and have them serve in the school."

Li Xiang was a man who valued his life very much. As the saying goes, the greatest pain in a person's life is to have no money left to spend. He wanted to enjoy his wealth for a few more years - at least beyond the 72 years in history!

Even if it's not for others, at least it can benefit yourself!
Seeing Li Shimin's expression slightly changed, Li Xiang continued, "Aunt, do you think that doctors in the medical school can exchange experiences and learn from each other, and share what they have? Wouldn't this prevent similar incidents from happening?"

"The reason why each family keeps their medical skills secret is simply because they are afraid that their apprentices will starve to death if they teach them well. In this case, the court can grant the title of 'Academician of the Medical College' to doctors who have made major breakthroughs in medicine. This is an honorary position, and the rank... well, it ranges from fifth to seventh. In this way, there is no doubt that doctors all over the world will be tempted."

Finally, Li Xiang offered a killer move: "All the officials in the court can also go to the medical school for regular physical examinations and regulate their bodies as a welfare."

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin laughed and said to Li Xiang: "Isn't this the Imperial Medical Bureau you are talking about?"

Li Xiang: Ah?

He really doesn't know this...

"In the seventh year of Wude, your grandfather ordered the establishment of the Imperial Medical Bureau, which consists of four parts: administration, teaching, medical treatment, and pharmacy." Li Shimin glanced at Li Xiang, "As for the teaching part you mentioned, the Imperial Medical Bureau has two departments: medicine and pharmacy. Under the medical department, there are four departments: medicine, acupuncture, massage, and incantation."

At this point, Li Shimin added: "You can think of it, do you think others can't think of it?"

Li Xiang was indeed annoyed. He thought he could just pretend a little, but he didn't expect to hit a wall.

He did understand that everyone has one head on two shoulders, and no one is smarter than anyone else. The advantage of a time traveler is nothing more than the accumulation of thousands of years standing on the shoulders of predecessors.

"Humph." Li Shimin looked at Li Xiang arrogantly. After beating the child, he affirmed his words: "As for the honorary position you mentioned, I think it is good and can be adopted."

You have to hit him with a stick, but you also have to give him sweet dates. This is the educational method that Lao Li has recently developed. It's not that he wants to control his grandson, but he wants him to understand a truth, that is, he should not rely on his inheritance from the Holy Ancestor Emperor to become arrogant and look down on the people of the world.

The purpose of giving a little affirmation is not to undermine the child's self-esteem too much. After all, Li Xiang is only twelve years old.

Li Xiang actually figured it out. If you had been that patient with my father back then, wouldn't my father and second uncle have ended up like that?

——However, what he didn’t know was that this patience was also what Old Li had recently learned from his failure in educating Li Chengqian.

Li Xiang scratched his head, looked at Sun Simiao again, and invited him, "After the two aunts recover, why don't you stay in the Imperial Medical Bureau?"

Sun Simiao stroked his beard and smiled as he refused: "I am used to being an idle wanderer. Besides, I have to travel around to treat poor people. If I stay in the Imperial Medical Bureau, it will be inconvenient."

"Master, you must know that human power is limited. How many people can you cure while traveling alone? How many prescriptions can you research?" Li Xiang began to persuade him: "If you train a group of students and work together with the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau, you will definitely be able to cultivate more outstanding doctors, research more prescriptions, and let more people benefit. Isn't that wonderful?"

What Li Xiang said was indeed reasonable, and Sun Simiao could hardly refute it. The power of the court was certainly much greater than that of one person. If he were alone, it was unknown when he would be able to get the "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases".

"Since the prince said so, it would be impolite for me to refuse." Sun Simiao sighed.

When Li Shimin saw that Sun Simiao agreed, he knew it was his turn to appear, so he smiled and said, "If the real person can stay in Chang'an, it will be a blessing for the people of Chang'an... In this case, I will appoint the real person as a counselor."

Li Xiang's eyes twitched. Wow, they are indeed father and son...

During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, after Sun Simiao entered the capital, Li Zhi appointed him as a counselor...

But Sun Simiao did not like these empty names and did not accept them. "I am used to being an idler and cannot stand the constraints of the court. I hope the saint will withdraw his order." Sun Simiao declined as he did in history.

Seeing that Li Shimin wanted to say something, Li Xiang said, "Since you are unwilling to accept it, then you can be the first 'Academician of the Medical College'. I believe that if the title of the first academician is given to you, there will be no objection among doctors in the world."

Having said that, Sun Simiao did not refuse but accepted Li Xiang's proposal.

Not long after, Wang De brought people and took Princess Changle to Lizheng Palace.

In fact, Li Shimin should not do this, after all, it would be embarrassing for his in-laws. But Zhangsun Wuji was a considerate brother-in-law after all, and he knew that Li Shimin did not distrust him, so he took the initiative to ask Wang De to let Princess Changle enter the palace to treat the illness with Princess Jinyang.

After not seeing her for several days, Li Lizhi looked even worse.

When Li Shimin saw his beloved daughter in such a state, he held Li Lizhi's hand and tears started to flow again.

"Yeah, don't cry. Master Sun has found the prescription, right?" Li Lizhi smiled and comforted Li Shimin.

Then he asked doubtfully, "Yeah, what did Big Brother do wrong? Why is he under house arrest?"

"You don't understand." Li Shimin sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll explain it to you later."

Li Lizhi became anxious and started to have another attack.

She clasped her hands tightly around her neck and gasped violently.

Li Shimin tried to comfort her with kind words for a long time before Li Lizhi recovered.

With tears in her eyes, she advised with a miserable look: "Even if Big Brother is wrong, he is the prince after all. Yeye should still consider his face..."

Li Shimin was worried about his daughter, so he quickly agreed: "Okay, okay, Li Zhi, don't worry, Ye Ye will lift his house arrest..."

"Wang De, hurry to the East Palace and release the crown prince from his house arrest!" he turned around and shouted.

"I'll go right away!" Wang De did not dare to delay, turned around and ran away.

Li Xiang looked back and saw that the old eunuch was extremely agile. When he jumped over the railing, he was clearly hurdling...

In the Eastern Palace, Li Chengqian was hugging Ruyi and complaining.

When he heard that it was Wang De who came, he just let him enter Mingde Hall with a calm expression.

After Wang De finished his summons, Li Chengqian couldn't help but have questions.

"Why did the Saint take back his order?" Li Chengqian asked Wang Dedao suspiciously.

Wang De sighed and said, "The Saint ordered Princess Changle to come to the palace for treatment. When the princess heard that you were confined, she became anxious and had a flare-up. The Saint was worried about the princess's condition, so he sent me here to summon her."

"What?! I'll go to Lizheng Palace right now!" Li Chengqian stood up suddenly and walked out regardless of anything.

However, in a corner that Li Chengqian didn't notice, Ruyi slowly lowered her head, with a fierce look in her eyes.
