Ye Zhen was determined to open a medical clinic, but she didn't know enough about it. Therefore, she wanted to know from Qi Jin what it was like to run a medical clinic.
"Your Highness, why do you suddenly ask about the medical clinic?" Qi Jin asked doubtfully.
"That day, I saw someone outside the palace who almost died from a cold because he had no money to see a doctor, so I thought of the medical clinic. If a medical clinic is set up in the capital, many people will not be dragged into serious illnesses by minor illnesses, and the emergence of epidemics can be avoided." Ye Zhen sighed softly. "Medical Officer Qi, what do you think?"
Qi Jin bowed her head. "This lowly official thinks that opening a medical clinic is not a good thing. I am afraid that it will cause Your Highness to be attacked for no reason."
"What do you mean?" Ye Zhen frowned. "Wasn't the original intention of Princess Xuanji to open a medical clinic for the people of the world? Later, although the emperor abdicated, the medical clinic could actually continue to exist. What is the real reason for the decline of the medical clinic?"
"Your Highness, opening a medical clinic is a good thing for the people of the world, but it is not a good thing for those high-ranking officials and nobles and most medical clinics. They will feel that they have been divided, and the situation will get worse and worse. Some high-ranking officials and nobles, in order to show their status, will go to the medical clinic to see a doctor or not? Sometimes they don't want to cure the disease, but want to have face. In the long run, the original intention of the medical clinic will change." Qi Jin remembered the difficulties of the medical clinic in the past. She did not think that the Empress could make the existence of the medical clinic better than before.
Ye Zhen bowed her head and deliberated carefully. She had thought about all these issues. Her position in the capital was not secure enough, and many people were waiting to see her make a fool of herself. But this was not the focus of her concern. She was the Empress, and only Mo Rongzhan could threaten her current position in the world. Ye Zhen bowed her head and deliberated carefully.
"What if we set the rules for the medical clinic?" Ye Zhen asked.
Qi Jin shook her head with a wry smile. "This lowly official doesn't think it's of any use. It can hold on for a while, but it's not a long-term solution."
"How can it not be a long-term solution? As long as it persists, it will last for a long time." Ye Zhen said in a deep voice. "It is imperative for this Empress to open a medical clinic. If someone feels that this Empress is hindering them, they will probably come to me to argue."
"Your Ladyship, are you planning to open a medical clinic in the capital or in the entire Jin Kingdom?" Qi Jin asked.
Ye Zhen said, "Let's try it in the capital now. If it succeeds, we will open medical clinics all over the Jin Kingdom."
Qi Jin actually hoped that the medical clinic could be reopened, but she was very clear that this was a very difficult matter. "Niang niang, this matter still needs to be considered at length."
"I understand. That's why I called you over to ask. Do you know anyone else who is familiar with the operation of the medical clinic?" Ye Zhen asked.
"This …" Qi Jin lowered her head and thought for a while. "I was young at that time, and I was only a medicine boy. Not long after, the clinic closed down, so I don't know much about it."
Ye Zhen sighed, "It's not easy to open a medical clinic."
"With Her Highness's benevolence, she will definitely be able to open the clinic." Qi Jin said. If the medical clinic could be reopened, it would be a good thing for both the common people and the female doctors in the medical center.
"Next, I will often discuss this matter with you. If you have any books about the medical clinic, please give them to me." Ye Zhen whispered.
Qi Jin bowed her head and answered, "Yes, Her Highness."
Ye Zhen did not learn more about the medical clinic from Qi Jin. She was a little hesitant. She did not know whether it was right or wrong to want to open a medical clinic. If she really wanted to open it, how many difficulties and setbacks would she encounter?
"Her Highness." Jian Jia walked in from the outside and stopped at Ye Zhen's side. "This slave has found out."
"Yu Ping?" Ye Zhen put down the book in her hand and raised her head coldly.
Jian Jia looked at her in surprise. "Her Highness already knew?"
"It's just a guess, but I always hoped it was not her." Ye Zhen said faintly, "How did you find out?"
"This servant found out that she was the only one who was missing at that time. Although she did not go out, she had her own way of passing messages." Jian Jia whispered.
Ye Zhen said lightly, "Now that there is no evidence, we can't take her down. Let's lure her out first."
Jian Jia looked up slightly. "Her Highness, what do you mean?"
"I will go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity in a while. Do you know what to do?" Ye Zhen asked.
"This servant understands." Jian Jia nodded gently.
Jian Jia bowed her head and retreated. Ye Zhen glanced at the book next to her. She felt that it was better to find Mo Rongzhan to learn more about the medical clinic. He seemed to know more.
"Hong Ling, change clothes for this consort." Ye Zhen called Hong Ling in.
She changed into a set of plain clothes, and on the surface, it seemed that she was ready to leave the palace. When Ye Zhen left the Pure Flowers Palace, Jianjia immediately sent people to guard every door, just not wanting anyone to go out and inform the empress dowager.
Yu Ping, who was trimming flowers and plants in the courtyard, lowered her head with a strange expression.
Mo Rongzhan was reading memorials in the imperial study. When he heard that the empress had come, his cold and serious face eased a little.
Ye Zhen came in with a food box. "Your Majesty, this concubine has stewed soup."
"It was specially made for me." Mo Rongzhan raised his eyebrows and looked at her beautiful face with a smile. "The empress is afraid that my body will suffer, so she wants to make up for it."
"Your Majesty is wrong. This concubine has something to ask of you, so I stewed soup to please you." Ye Zhen glared at him and put the food box on the table. In fact, she had ordered it in the morning, but when she heard his words, she didn't want to tell the truth.
Mo Rongzhan took her hand and sat beside her. "Tell me, what is it that you want to ask of me?"
"Drink the soup first." Ye Zhen said with a smile and poured the soup for him personally. Although he was in good health now, she still wanted to recuperate him with the spring water.
"Well, the empress has worked hard." Mo Rongzhan kissed her on the cheek.
Ye Zhen pursed her lips and smiled. "Ah Zhan, I want to know everything about the medical clinic."
Mo Rongzhan drank the soup and looked at her with a smile. "What else do you want to know?"
He thought that with so many diaries about the medical clinic and Doctor Qi, she should know almost everything.
"I want to know why the medical clinic has declined and what it has experienced, so that I can avoid it when the time comes." Ye Zhen said.
Mo Rongzhan put down the bowl in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Yao Yao, there are many things that you don't want to avoid. As long as you want to open a medical clinic, what happened in the past and what will happen in the future are different, as long as you believe that you can do it well."
