Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 143 Our goal is to benefit the people!

In the study room.

Li Chengqian looked at Su Chen curiously and asked why Su Chen came.

"No one comes to see you for no reason. I came to the East Palace to see you for something important."

Su Chen smiled and took out a list and placed it in front of Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian picked it up and checked it.

"I can arrange for others to buy ordinary medical books, but some precious books are only available in the Imperial Medical Bureau."

"The medical books above are not available on the market. You need to go to the Imperial Medical Bureau to negotiate. If it is convenient, you can borrow these medical books."

Li Chengqian looked at the list in his hand and nodded. The medical books on it were indeed only owned by the Imperial Medical Bureau.

They are all precious treasures left by our predecessors.

"I'll try to find a way to get these medical books, but the Imperial Medical Bureau may not agree."

"why?"

Su Chen looked doubtful.

As the crown prince, would it be so troublesome for Li Chengqian to borrow some medical books from the Imperial Medical Bureau?

Li Chengqian smiled and said, "You don't know the feud between Divine Doctor Sun and the Imperial Medical Bureau, do you?"

Su Chen thought for a moment and said, "Old Sun should have a good relationship with the Imperial Medical Bureau."

"No, you are wrong."

Li Chengqian shook his head. "Since the death of my mother, the relationship between Divine Doctor Sun and the Imperial Medical Bureau has reached a freezing point."

"Why?"

"Back then, my mother was seriously ill, and my father ordered the doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau to treat her, but they were unable to make any progress. As a last resort, my father urgently summoned Dr. Sun to treat her..."

Li Chengqian showed a hint of nostalgia on his face, as if he was thinking of the queen who had sewed and mended clothes for him and cared for him so much.

Suddenly, Li Chengqian's face was filled with murderous intent. "The people in the Imperial Medical Bureau couldn't find the cause of Queen Mother's illness, so they could only use various nourishing substances to ensure that Queen Mother's body was stable. But after Doctor Sun checked, he found that Queen Mother's body was too weak to be nourished."

"The large amount of nourishing substances not only caused the Queen Mother's health to deteriorate rapidly, but even Doctor Sun was helpless."

"After the emperor learned about this, he executed several mediocre doctors one after another, and the entire Imperial Medical Bureau was held accountable. This was also the main reason for the deterioration of the relationship between Divine Doctor Sun and the Imperial Medical Bureau."

"Every time I think of this, I wish I could chop them into pieces!"

As imperial physicians treating the royal family, these people did not seek merit, but only sought to avoid mistakes.

Since the cause of Empress Changsun's illness could not be found, they could only focus on nourishing the body. If the Empress lived one more day, they would be safer.

This is a common occurrence in all dynasties.

There were even some imperial doctors who directly poisoned the patient in order to ensure their own safety...

No wonder Sun Simiao said some medical books are hard to get.

It turns out there is such a reason.

He has touched upon other people's interests, so who else should we punish if not him?

Looking at Li Chengqian's appearance, it seems that the people from the Imperial Medical Bureau had also been dealt with by him.

Su Chen groaned and said, "If you can't do it, then find someone else."

"Change someone?"

Li Chengqian immediately laughed, "Why, can you still ask the emperor to help you?"

"of course can."

Su Chen smiled, but Li Chengqian was stunned.

Ask father for help?
Su Chen said meaningfully, "Establishing a medical school is for the benefit of the people of Datang, and he doesn't have to pay for it. Do you think he will agree?"

Ok?
Li Chengqian suddenly felt that he had great potential.

"What's specific?"

"Sun Qiang."

"What are your orders, son?"

"Order Su Wang to prepare thirty thousand taels of silver and accompany us into the palace later."

"Yes."

Sun Qiang turned and left.

Seeing Li Chengqian staring at him, Su Chen said with a smile: "I'll have to trouble His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to help me go to the palace to see the Emperor."

"it is good!"

……

Royal study room.

When the eunuch came forward to report that the prince had brought Su Chen into the palace to meet the emperor, Li Shimin became very curious.

He even brought a gift?

"Xuan."

Li Shimin said casually.

I was curious about what Su Chen and the prince were going to do this time.

"I, Su Chen, pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"No gift."

Li Shimin waved his hand and looked away from Su Chen. "What is the purpose of the Crown Prince's visit to the palace this time?" "Your Majesty, Father."

"Su Chen intends to build a medical school for our Tang Dynasty to train talents who are proficient in medical books. Unfortunately, he has the will but not the ability, so he came to me for help. After careful consideration, I think this matter should be reported to my father, so I brought him here."

I'm just a middleman, if you have any questions, just ask him.

Li Chengqian's attitude made Li Shimin even more curious, "Build a medical school?"

"Exactly."

Su Chen smiled slightly and said with a cupped hand: "I have already received the consent of Dr. Sun, the Divine Doctor, to build a place for academic research in Yanfufang."

"By then, there will be a medical school headed by Dr. Sun and composed of many medical experts, which will accept many students and benefit the people."

Oh?
Li Shimin immediately became interested. He had invited Sun Simiao many times, but Sun Simiao was unwilling to serve as an official in the court, nor was he willing to stay in the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Now he has been persuaded by Su Chen and wants to pass on his medical skills to others!
"How did you convince Dr. Sun?"

"In recent years, the Tang Dynasty has been hit by natural disasters. In addition, many people are injured and sick but have nowhere to seek medical treatment, so I thought of the medical school."

Su Chen spoke eloquently, "With Dr. Sun's medical skills, he will surely be able to attract countless people who like to learn medicine. Once successful, there will be countless more medical clinics in the Tang Dynasty in the future, curing countless patients."

"The merit lies in the present time, and the benefit lies in the future!"

"Unfortunately, we have already found the location and personnel, but we are only lacking the precious medical books. So I hope Your Majesty can order us to borrow the medical books in the Imperial Medical Bureau."

Not a bad idea.

However, how could Su Chen control such a group of doctors?
Li Shimin pondered, "Building a medical school will benefit the people, and I will certainly not stop it."

"Borrowing the medical manual is not a problem. I will order someone to copy a copy of the medical manual from the Imperial Medical Bureau and send it over..."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to trouble yourself."

Su Chen smiled and said, "The Imperial Medical Bureau only needs to borrow the medical books for two days. After two days, the medical books will be returned in full."

Just two days?

How can so many medical books record everything?
Li Shimin nodded, "In that case, two days will do."

"but."

"The matter of the medical school must be carried out under the supervision of the court personnel, otherwise mistakes are likely to occur."

Li Chengqian turned his gaze to Su Chen and said, "See? Trouble is coming."

Su Chen nodded indifferently, "Your Majesty, what you said makes sense."

Do you agree?
Su Chen's frankness surprised Li Shimin a little.

Could it be that I am judging others by my own standards?
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Su Chen, you are loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and you benefit the people of the Tang Dynasty. I was right about you."

Ha ha.

Su Chen smiled and cupped his hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Liao Zan."

"The cost of building a medical school..."

"I will bear all the responsibility!"

Li Shimin looked at Su Chen and became more and more satisfied.

He is a man who can accomplish great things!

"I heard that you brought me gifts when you entered the palace this time?"

"good."

Su Chen: "Thirty thousand taels of silver."

The profit dividend from just one month of soap is 30,000 taels of silver?
This is enough to be comparable to the annual tax revenue of a place with a population of hundreds of thousands.

It's really huge profits.

Li Shimin took a sip of tea and nodded calmly, "Not bad."

Su Chen: "Thanks to your majesty."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Okay, stop flattering me. Just do your own thing. If the medical school makes a mistake, I will not let you go."

"Go down."

……

Walk out of the palace.

Li Chengqian couldn't help but ask: "Why did you agree?"

Su Chen: "Just think of it as a tiger skin. Besides, if we don't tell him clearly, won't he know?"

Such a big thing in medical school cannot be kept secret.

It would be better to be more direct and straightforward, which would also allow him to gain a certain degree of initiative from Li Shimin.

"At most he sent someone to keep an eye on it..."

Su Chen said with a smile, "Behind me is you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. As long as he doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, he dares to interfere. Is he looking for death?"

"Besides, isn't the purpose of building a medical school to benefit the people?"

Li Chengqian: “Really?”

"Of course!"

Su Chen said solemnly, "The purpose of our building a medical school is to benefit the common people. It's just that while benefiting the common people, you can help us do a little thing by the way."

"That makes sense, right?"
