Huguang Province.
As a major food province, Huguang had always had a legend that Huguang was rich, and the world was rich.
Qi Province, as an unremarkable state capital, gave birth to the Great Ming's Holy Doctor, Li Shizhen.
Li Shizhen was famous in later generations, and his father was naturally not bad.
During the three years in Hongzhi, Li Yanwen had already developed the " Four Diagrams."
At this moment, Li Yanwen was studying the " Treatment of Pox and Rash ".
Dong dong dong.
There was a hurried knock on the door.
Madam Li went to open the door and was surprised to find a group of Jinyiwei dressed in flying fish clothes and holding embroidered spring knives. She was immediately frightened and her face turned pale.
"Madam Li, there is no need to panic. The Emperor summoned Li Yanwen into the capital not because he committed a crime.”
Li Yanwen walked out with his hands behind his back.
He naturally knew why the Emperor had summoned him.
Li Yanwen was ambitious and had always wanted to enter the Imperial Academy of Medicine. However, he had never been able to find a way to do so. Today, when he heard that the Emperor had summoned him, his heart was already filled with respect!
The current Emperor had great ambitions. Now that the Ming Dynasty was prosperous and the people were at peace, the people were all rich because of the appearance of this wise ruler.
He didn't expect that he would be able to meet the heavens in the countryside. How could Li Yanwen not be excited?
"This commoner will set off with you sirs!”
The Embroidered Uniform Guards nodded and looked at Li Yanwen."Mr. Li, you'd better bring your family along.”
The Brocade Guard had never reminded anyone so kindly, but they were keenly aware that Li Yanwen might rise to power. It would not be wrong to do him a favor now.
"Thank you for your reminder, sirs!"
……
It was located on the Japanese Peninsula.
At this time, war was still breaking out among the Wei slaves, and the Emperor's rule was getting weaker and weaker.
The various lords were rapidly rising on the Japanese islands. If Emperor Goto Mito wanted to concentrate his power, he had to fight a beautiful battle.
Emperor Goto Mito was not only facing the internal chaos of the island, but there was also another huge stone pressing on his heart. It was the navy of the Ming Dynasty that was rapidly rising along the southeast coast of the Ming Empire. They were deliberately threatening the Japanese islands!
This was a challenge, but it was also an opportunity for the Houtu Imperial Emperor. As long as he could deal with this crisis, the Emperor's ruling power would be second to none!
Dozens of top-notch warriors were kneeling in the capital's royal residence!
The imperial palace of the capital, the place where generations of emperors lived!
"You must complete this decapitation mission with your lives!”
"Swear to kill the head of the Great Ming Emperor!”
"Swear to kill the head of the Great Ming Emperor!”
"Swear to kill the head of the Great Ming Emperor!”
Dozens of warriors who were proficient in Chinese shouted.
"Go! Warriors!"
Dozens of warriors, carrying the heavy responsibility of being the emperor, quietly boarded the ship and headed towards the coast.
This time, they did not choose to land on the southeast coast. Instead, they wisely chose to land on the Ming Empire from the Korean Peninsula.
The defense there was relatively weak. Because the war had just begun, it was easy to pass off fish eyes as pearls.
……
Hall of Heaven.
The government affairs were being carried out.
Zhou Hongmo, the Minister of Rites, stepped forward with an ivory board in his arms."Reporting to the emperor, North Korea has sent ten princesses of the royal family to pray for marriage to His Majesty.”
"The diplomatic mission has arrived in Liaodong. Wen Zhengming is arranging for the princess of North Korea to enter the capital.”
Marriage…
It had existed since the Han Dynasty and had extremely political significance. Most of it was to pray for domestic peace, stable economic development, and the reconciliation of the two countries!
The only difference was that the marriage alliance this time had changed hands.
North Korea was scared out of its wits by Zhu Youtang's soldiers. It was still not at ease to take the initiative to pay tribute and even married ten princesses to the Ming Dynasty to pray for peace.
Such an uninvited visit was enough to show how much North Korea feared Great Ming!
Before Chenghua, these foreign countries harbored evil intentions and were mostly submissive to the Ming Dynasty on the surface but disdainful in private.
North Korea had even come into contact with the Japanese Peninsula, praying for both sides to work together to check and balance the Great Ming.
Now?
A ship belonging to the King of the Li family of North Korea dared to head south in the southeast direction?!
If he didn't give them a good beating, these foreign countries would always have second thoughts!
Zhu Youtang smiled coldly." I don't want to marry the princess of North Korea. Since she has already entered the capital, I will reward her to the meritorious minister."”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhou Hongmo said loudly.”
When he returned to the platoon, Li Dongyang stepped forward and said,""Your Majesty, Li Yanwen from Huguang has arrived at the Forbidden City.”
"Xuan!" Zhu Youtang said.
Not long after.
Li Yan carefully entered the Hall of Heaven Tribute under the guidance of the eunuch.
Everything here was so solemn!
This was Li Yanwen's first time in the capital, his first time in the Forbidden City, and his first time in the Hall of Heaven's Worship. It was sacred and solemn!
He didn't dare to raise his head and walked with his head lowered. Only when the eunuch asked him to pay his respects did he kneel down and shout,"This commoner Li Yanwen greets Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty!”
"Rise," Zhu Youtang said.
The voice was crisp, but it gave off a very dignified and oppressive feeling. Li Yanwen stood up carefully.
Zhu Youtang sized him up. He looked to be in his early thirties and was wearing a coarse linen shirt. He should be in a bad financial situation.
His skin was dark, so he must have been tanned by going out to pick herbs all year round.
"Raise your head."
Zhu Youtang said in a deep voice.
Li Yanwen's heart surged. What did he do to be able to meet Tian Yan?
"This commoner obeys!"
Li Yanwen was so excited that his hands were sweating. He raised his head and glanced at Zhu Youtang.
He was handsome and dignified. Every move he made gave off the aura of an emperor!
"Li Yanwen, have you heard about the malaria in Northern Zhili and Guangdong?”
Zhu Youtang asked.
Li Yanwen raised his voice a few steps."To be honest, I have been researching countermeasures against malaria and smalllessness for decades. I have absolute confidence in malaria!”
All the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.
Liu Jian was the first to jump out.”
Today, Zhu Youtang summoned the folk Jianghu doctor. The cabinet and officials were all surprised. They did not know how such a doctor entered the Emperor's eyes.
Now that they suddenly heard that such a folk doctor actually had such great ability, while they were amazed by Zhu Youtang's precise vision, all the civil and military officials in the court focused their eyes on Li Yanwen at the same time.
"Really!" Li Yan said. It's just that I'm still lacking a medicinal ingredient."
Zhu Youtang was very happy.
Li Yanwen's appearance really helped Zhu Youtang solve his predicament.
"Just say it!"
"Cinchona tree!" Li Yan said.
"Where can I get this tree?" Zhu Youtang asked.
"Replying to the emperor, this tree grew in the Annan chieftain.”
Zhu Youtang said to the cabinet,"Let the Guangxi commander Rosefinch go to Annan to transport the cinchona trees. The Ministry of Works will send a fast horse to welcome them!" All the official roads in the country gave way! Five days later, I want to see this tree in the Imperial Academy of Medicine!”
"Li Yanwen, listen up!"
"This commoner is here!"
"From today onwards, I appoint you as the chief physician of the Imperial Academy of Medicine!”
In an instant!
Li Yanwen felt his scalp go numb and was so excited that he forgot to thank him!
