Chapter 181, Why are you here?
Prince Li's Mansion, the upper room in the main courtyard.
Chu Yao was soaking in the steaming medicinal bath. A few meters away, Shi Fuxin was sitting behind the desk carefully sorting out the planning document for Shennongtang Women's Medical College.
Compared to his usual drowsiness, Chu Yao, who was taking a medicinal bath today, was a little too energetic: "Are you really going to go to the emperor to talk about opening a women's medical school?"
Shi Fuxin didn't even raise her head: "Of course it's true. This is something I had thought about when Shennongtang was founded."
Chu Yao looked a little solemn: "Back then, Queen Wende wanted to establish a women's college, but she encountered unprecedented resistance and pressure from public opinion. You"
Shi Fuxin looked up and said, "Yes, Queen Wende has already given me a demonstration. As for me, I just picked up the wisdom of others and walked through it again."
Chu Yao: "But Queen Wende is the founding queen and the mother of the country."
Shi Fuxin: "Then I am still the emperor's master."
Chu Yao shook his head: "The different Queen Wende actually caused a lot of trouble when she ran a women's college. She was a queen and had the emperor's support, so she was safe in the end, but you and I are afraid that I can't protect you. "
Shi Fuxin walked over with a smile: "I know you are worried about me, and I also know that some reputations are unworthy." As she said that, she held up the final version of the Shennongtang Women's Medical College plan to Chu Yao.
“The emperor is the protector of Shennongtang, so naturally he is indispensable for Shennongtang Women’s Medical College. He is the honorary principal, and I am just the person responsible for supervising its construction.”
“The purpose of opening a women’s medical school is just to give women the skills to establish themselves, and ultimately everyone will benefit.”
“Let the emperor take the lead, and I don’t think it will irritate the nerves of the officials in the DPRK.”
Chu Yao felt that Shi Fuxin had a good idea: "Empress Wende encouraged women to study, and many women's colleges were founded during the Taizu period. But look at how many women are still studying now?"
Shi Fuxin put away the plan: "I can't care about future generations, I only care about the present." Seeing that Chu Yao still wanted to persuade, she quickly said, "Okay, I'll go into the palace and take a medicinal bath for half an hour, and then you can come out. .”
After saying that, Shi Fuxin walked away quickly.
Looking at her leaving figure, Chu Yao sighed and then snapped his fingers.
A moment later, a secret guard appeared in front of Chu Yao.
“The princess is going to open a women’s medical school. I have been paying more attention to the reactions of officials recently and made a note of those who oppose it.”
After the secret guards left, Chu Yao was wondering how the emperor would react and whether he would agree to Shi Liu.
It has been three years since the new emperor came to the throne. He has already become familiar with the major and minor affairs of the court. In addition, with the multiple use of capable ministers and officials, the entire court is showing an increasing trend.
“Your Majesty, Prince Li and Princess Li would like to see you.”
The emperor had just finished correcting the memorial and was about to take a rest when he heard Gao Changshou coming in to announce that Fu Xin wanted to see him.
For Shi Fuxin, the master, the emperor was really unsure about his attitude towards getting along with her.
He was able to sit on the throne because of his master's efforts. He has been on the throne for three years now. During this period, except for the Shennongtang branch that opened in the south, he has not been asked to do anything.
What is the purpose of this sudden request for an audience?
Gao Changshou saw that the emperor didn't respond, so he couldn't help but remind him: "Your Majesty?"
The emperor came to his senses and said, "Why don't you hurry up and invite me!"
As soon as Shi Fuxin stepped into the Qianqing Palace, she saw the emperor standing up from the throne with a smile, then walking around the imperial desk and walking towards Shi Fuxin, as if he was coming to greet her.
“I have met the emperor.”
Just when Fuxin was about to bend down to salute, she was helped up by the emperor.
“Master, are you trying to offend me? We, master and disciple, don’t need these false gifts.”
Shi Fuxin said "haha" twice in her heart. Even though the emperor showed great intimacy, the subconscious address cannot deceive others. "I", isn't it still emphasizing her identity.
The emperor led Shi Fuxin to a side hall at the back of Qianqing Palace to have tea: "Master, why did you suddenly think of coming to see me?"
Shi Fuxin looked at him and said with a smile: "I miss you as a teacher, and I don't think of you suddenly, but all the time. Good disciple, do you want to be a teacher?"
Hearing this, the emperor was stunned, and his memory was suddenly pulled back to the time when he corresponded with Shi Fuxin.
Thinking of my former self, I can't help but smile knowingly every time I see those straightforward and unabashed words of concern in Master's letters.
In reality, the emperor also laughed out loud: "Of course the disciple also misses the master."
Of course Shi Fuxin didn't believe it and looked at him suspiciously: "Really?"
The emperor suddenly became interested and joked: "Why, master doesn't believe it?" He said, looking hurt, "Master really hurts my disciple's heart."
Well.
There is something wrong with the style of painting!
Not only Shi Fuxin felt embarrassed, but also Gao Changshou beside her had a weird face.
Your Majesty: "." It seems that it has been performed.
Sigh, acting still requires talent, and there is no way to compare with the concubines in the harem.
When the emperor saw the scroll in Shi Fuxin’s hand, he relieved himself from the embarrassment: “Is what the master is holding in his hand a gift for his disciple?”
After finishing speaking, the emperor was shocked. This master had screamed too much, and it seemed that he couldn't even scream.
When Shi Fuxin saw the emperor taking the initiative to raise the plan in his hand, he immediately smiled and said, "Apprentice, you have good eyesight. Isn't this a gift prepared for you by the master?"
Fuxin smiled happily when the emperor saw her, and the smile on her face became more numerous: "The disciple must appreciate his master's masterpiece."
Shi Fuxin laid out the painting carefully: "It is indeed a masterpiece. It took me more than ten years of hard work."
The emperor had already made plans. No matter whether Shi Fuxin took a copybook or a drawing note, no matter how bad the writing was or how ugly the drawing was, he would definitely support him. But who would have thought that after the scroll was opened...
There are a lot of words written, and there is no shortage of pictures, but what is the name of "Shen Nong Tang Women's Medical College" above?
Facing Shi Fuxin's expectant eyes, alarm bells rang in the emperor's mind. He coughed twice: "Master, did you take the wrong thing?"
Shi Fuxin: "No, this is what I drew specifically for you. Take a good look at it. This is a planning and design drawing."
Of course the emperor saw that this was a planning and design drawing, and also guessed what Shi Fuxin wanted to do with him: "I know that Master is devoted to me, but Shennong Hall belongs to Master, and I will never get involved. , Master, please take it back quickly."
As he said that, he actually put the scroll away himself.
Shi Fuxin stretched out her hand and pressed it on the plan, looking directly at the emperor: "Your Majesty, you haven't read it carefully yet?"
When the emperor saw it, Fuxin followed the plan, turned around and sat back down: "I told you that Shennong Hall belongs to you, master, and I will not get involved."
“The development of Shennongtang can benefit more people, which is a good thing for the emperor and the great Chu.”
The emperor looked at her: "I understand all this, so I will always support Shennongtang branches when they open in the southern provinces."
Shi Fuxin: "But as Shennongtang has more branches, there is an urgent need for professional medical staff, so I thought." The emperor interrupted Shi Fuxin: "If Shennongtang is short of doctors, we can definitely recruit private doctors. I I think, with the current reputation of Shennongtang, many doctors are willing."
At that time, Fu Xin sat across from the emperor and said, "Men can do everything in the world. Why doesn't the emperor give the women of the world a skill to establish themselves?"
The emperor was silent: "It is better for a woman to stay at home and take care of her husband and raise her children."
The reason didn't make sense, and she could only be kidnapped by emotion. Shi Fuxin looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I only have one wish as a teacher. Please grant it to me."
The emperor knew to some extent what Shi Fuxin's temperament was. Even if he refused, he probably would not give up afterwards: "Open a women's college."
Shi Fuxin interrupted and corrected: "It's the Women's Medical College."
Emperor: "The courtiers will not agree to the establishment of a women's medical school. A lesson learned from the past is that Queen Wende opened a women's college, which caused a lot of trouble."
Shi Fuxin: "But as far as I know, the women who served as officials in the court did a lot of things to establish the people and the country."
Seeing that the emperor wanted to refute, Shi Fuxin said quickly: "Isn't the emperor worried about the opposition of the courtiers? How about building Shennongtang's first women's medical school in the suburbs of Beijing? If the courtiers really oppose it, then I will start again Plan the development of Shennongtang.”
The emperor knew very well that the courtiers would not agree, and did not want to offend Shi Fuxin, so he agreed.
Shortly after Shi Fuxin left the palace, news spread that Shi Fuxin was going to open the Shennongtang Women's Medical College, which instantly triggered a wave of controversy.
After Shi Fuxin found out, she also had someone spread the news.
“The emperor is the first president of Shennongtang Women’s Medical College.”
At this time, public opinion has become a bit confusing.
Shi Fuxin had already built the first Shennongtang Women's Medical College in the eastern suburbs of the capital. Half a month after the public opinion spread, she invited all the businessmen in the capital area who had business dealings with Shennongtang and Hongyanxiao to witness the event. Next, the 'Shen Nong Tang First Women's Medical College' was listed.
What followed was fierce opposition from the courtiers.
The emperor did not expect Shi Fuxin to be so fast, and he also saw Shi Fuxin's determination. He did not do much, just watched the courtiers quarreling.
Half a month later, the emperor was shocked to find that the opposition voices gradually weakened. After checking, he found out that Saihua Tuo, who was famous in the capital at that time, was Shi Fuxin.
His good master used the name of life-saving grace to silence the opposing powerful officials.
“Bai Yueguang, Sai Huatuo, the leader of Shennongtang, the boss of Hongyanxiao, and the people behind Baicaotang are now opening Shennongtang Women’s Medical College.”
The emperor now has some practices of the late emperor, and he is also afraid of the influence of his master.
“Meet the Emperor.”
Master Zhuge, as the emperor's staff, has the opportunity to serve as an official when the emperor ascends the throne. However, compared to doing practical things, Master Zhuge prefers to hide behind the scenes and advise others.
The emperor really needed a staff member who was not involved in the interests of the court, so he casually gave Master Zhuge a casual job and kept him by his side.
“Mr. Zhuge, now I have another headache and I don’t know what to do.”
"Rong Chen guessed that the emperor is worried about Divine Doctor Liu?"
Your Majesty: "Master has helped me a lot, and I am very grateful to her."
Master Zhuge smiled and nodded: "The emperor has a close relationship with Dr. Liu. Since Dr. Liu wants to open Shennongtang Women's Medical College, let her open it."
The emperor looked over and said, "Do you think I should support you?"
Master Zhuge smiled and said: "Da Chu has a vast territory, and the emperor's energy is limited, so he cannot and does not need to do everything himself. What the emperor has to do is to make good use of capable ministers and officials and maintain the order of imperial power. As for the rest, why not let go."
“The market needs vitality, and the country also needs vitality. Within a controllable range, appropriate decentralization may be able to radiate vitality.”
Your Majesty: "What if it gets out of control?"
Master Zhuge's smile did not change: "What does the emperor think of Queen Wende? The powerful clan members are often afraid of Queen Wende's power, but since the founding of the Chu Kingdom, the most prosperous period was during the period of Taizu and Gaozong assisted by Queen Wende. The turmoil was never caused by Queen Wende."
“Thirdly, Queen Wende herself is at the center of power.”
The emperor understood what Master Zhuge meant. Empress Wende was more powerful than Shi Fuxin. Empress Wende didn't even rebel, let alone Shi Fuxin.
The next day, the emperor's general Shi Fuxin called to the palace, and the master and apprentice played a game of chess.
“Master, when your family came to Beijing, what did you think after learning about my situation?”
“I was thinking at that time, I came to this world as if I was here to be your master.”
Shennongtang First Women's Medical College in the suburbs of Beijing, despite suffering a lot of criticism in the first few months of its establishment, later successfully enrolled its first batch of students with the emperor's acquiescence and the courtiers' silence.
“You finally remembered me.”
Shi Fuxin was busy with matters at the Women's Medical College, and Chu Yao took medicinal baths by himself. Seeing Shi Fuxin come back, Chu Yao felt a little resentful.
Shi Fuxin stepped forward with a smile and said comfortingly: "Okay, I will accompany you every day from now on."
Chu Yao looked suspicious: "You won't be so busy in the future?"
Shi Fuxin nodded: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. Once the First Women's Medical College is on the right track, the medical schools that will be opened later will have experience to follow."
Chu Yao didn’t want to continue this topic: “Is my body almost ready?”
Shi Fuxin: "The conditioning is pretty good. Don't rush into practice yet. Wait until your muscles and veins are healed."
Chu Yao looked at her: "I am a useless person now, you won't dislike me, right?"
Shi Fuxin looked back, then stretched out her hands to rub Chu Yao's face: "You know nothing about your beauty. You just have nothing. Just this face is enough to fascinate me." ”
Although there were some Israeli servants, it still appeased Chu Yao's somewhat uneasy heart.
In the fifth year of Jianguang's reign, Chu Yao took good care of her health. In December of that year, Shi Fuxin gave birth to her and Chu Yao's first child, a daughter.
After the birth of his daughter, Chu Yao used his talent in raising children and became a dad who surrounds his children, never leaving his hand wherever he goes.
Shi Fuxin looked at the father and daughter playing together, smiled knowingly, and then continued to invest in the establishment of the second, third, and fourth women's medical schools.
(Complete book)
I feel very sorry for the recent update. I am really not in a good state. I would like to apologize to all the book friends.
This ending is a bit different from the previous idea. I originally wanted to write some emotional scenes between the male and female protagonists, but adding emotional dramas based on the male and female protagonists' characters may be a little inconsistent, so the story of the ordinary people ends here. It's over.
Dear book friends, see you in the next book! !
