"A hundred flowers bloom, a hundred schools of thought contend!"
After visiting the greenhouse, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the rare winter wonder.
Hundreds of flowers withered in winter, but hundreds of flowers bloomed in the greenhouse. This was a miracle. If such a miracle happened in the past, it would definitely happen. And the source of all these miracles was Mo Technique.
Wasn't the School of Mo the same? Before this, the School of Mo had already sunk to the bottom of the sea. However, Mo Jiazi appeared out of thin air and led the School of Mo to create one miracle after another. He even led the recovery of the other hundred schools of thought. In the fertile soil of the Tang dynasty, a hundred flowers bloomed.
"How lucky am I to be able to reappear the School of Thought!" Li Shimin looked at Meton, who was chatting happily with Princess Changle in the flowers, and Li Tai, who came after hearing the news. He couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"A hundred schools of thought, a hundred schools of thought contend."
Anyone who thought of that magnificent era couldn't help but shudder. The sages of the past had all revealed their ideas and created a school of thought. All kinds of ideas conflicted with each other, and the crystallization of wisdom shone like diamonds in the world. Classics emerged one after another.
And now, the trend of a hundred schools of thought contending in the Tang dynasty was becoming more and more obvious. The sudden emergence of the School of Mo and the School of Medicine was the most typical example. Any emperor who noticed this trend during his reign would be overjoyed. Even the most foolish emperor, as long as a hundred schools of thought contending appeared during his reign, it would definitely be heavily colored in the history books.
Not to mention that the School of Thought contending in the Pre-Qin period was only about ideas. However, the School of Thought contending in the Tang dynasty had already turned ideas into practicality and brought about great benefits.
This was also the reason why Li Shimin had been silently supporting the School of Mo. Meton also didn't disappoint him and brought him one surprise after another. Of course, there were also troubles.
What made him even more ecstatic was that his son might also have his own school of thought. This kind of participation made him quite proud.
Although the greenhouse was magical, the space was very small after all. Everyone quickly toured it once before reluctantly walking out of it.
"To have such a wondrous sight in winter, it really is a wondrous sight in winter!" Empress Zhangsun said in great joy.
"If Imperial Mother likes it, I'll cultivate a greenhouse for Imperial Mother every winter in the future for Imperial Mother to admire." Princess Jinyang said sensibly.
"Tang Zi is so obedient!" Princess Changle praised.
Li Shimin looked at the happy family happily and could not help but feel a burst of warmth in his heart. Now that the Tang dynasty was thriving and the family members in the imperial harem were happy and harmonious, Li Shimin felt that God had treated him well.
Suddenly, Empress Zhangsun, who had just come out of the greenhouse, was hit by the cold wind. Her face turned pale and she couldn't help but cough. Her body couldn't help but sway. Li Shimin hurriedly supported Empress Zhangsun.
"Maid Guanyin, what's wrong with you?" Li Shimin asked with a frightened expression.
Princess Changle hurriedly went forward. After careful examination, she immediately said anxiously, "It should be Imperial Mother's Qi disease acting up. Quickly go and get the medicine!"
Empress Zhangsun often suffered from Qi disease and had always been accompanied by palace maids who were in charge of medicine. Immediately, a palace maid rushed over.
"Invite Divine Doctor Sun here immediately!" Li Shimin was even more worried and said anxiously. Recently, Empress Zhangsun's health had not improved and had not improved.
Moreover, ever since the two miracle doctors worked together to cure Li Shimin's foot disease, Li Shimin had a lot of trust in the medical skills of the School of Medicine. Immediately, he treated the School of Medicine as his last hope.
Very quickly, the medicine was brewed and sent over in the shortest time possible. After Empress Zhangsun took the medicine, although she was slightly better, her body was still weak and could only lie on the sickbed.
Meton, who had been standing at the side, could not help but feel his heart sink. According to historical records, Empress Zhangsun passed away in the tenth year of Zhenguan. Although the School of Medicine had risen and their medical skills had improved greatly, they were still helpless when it came to some difficult and complicated diseases. Take Li Yuan's stroke for example. Although Li Yuan had lived half a year longer under Sun Simiao's superb medical skills, anyone could see that Li Yuan did not have much time left.
Empress Zhangsun's condition was even more complicated. With the current medical skills, even if Sun Simiao and Old Hua worked together, they would not be able to cure her.
Very quickly, Sun Simiao hurried over with Mo Wu. When he saw Empress Zhangsun, his expression changed and he quickly went forward to diagnose her.
"Doctor Sun, how is the Empress's condition?" After Sun Simiao finished his diagnosis, Li Shimin quickly asked.
"It's not optimistic!" Sun Simiao said with an ugly expression.
Li Shimin's face instantly paled and he turned his head with difficulty to look at Empress Zhangsun on the sickbed. Empress Zhangsun was his first wife. When Li Shimin was conferred the title of Qin Wang Fei, Empress Zhangsun was Qin Wang Fei. When Li Shimin ascended the throne as Emperor, Empress Zhangsun was immediately conferred the title of Empress. The two could be said to be deeply affectionate.
Although there were three palaces and six courtyards and seventy-two concubines in the palace, Li Shimin spent half of his time in Empress Zhangsun's palace. Originally, in anyone's opinion, Li Shimin already had enough affection for Empress Zhangsun.
However, when he saw Empress Zhangsun lying on the sickbed and the woman he loved the most might leave him forever, Li Shimin found that he was ridiculously wrong. So what if he spent half of his time with her? Even if he spent twice as much time with her, it was still far from enough.
The greatest pain in the world was to only know how to cherish something after losing it, but it was already too late to regret it. Only now did Li Shimin truly understand the meaning of Meton's strict adherence to monogamy. Only spending a lifetime together like that could be considered true love.
This time, he had taken the initiative to abandon this beautiful love. He couldn't help but think back to when he had begun to abandon this love. It was when he had taken the initiative to take in Yang fei after appeasing the Sui Dynasty. It was also when he had taken in the Yin family and Wei family in order to rope in the nobility and consolidate the military faction of the King of Qin's manor. Following each marriage, Empress Zhangsun had not objected. In the end, he had become accustomed to it. Later on, he had taken the initiative to bring Yang Jieyu, Beauty Xiao, and Zheng Chonghua into his harem.
Under Empress Zhangsun's magnanimity, he enjoyed her beauty with a clear conscience. However, when he saw Empress Zhangsun lying on the sickbed, he realized that if he could do it all over again, he would definitely be like Mo Jiazi and insist on monogamy. He would accompany Empress Zhangsun for the rest of his life.
Li Shimin said with a ferocious expression, "I did not support the School of Medicine so that they could shirk their responsibilities. With the School of Medicine's strength, how could they not cure the Empress?"
Sun Simiao sighed and said, "Ever since the Old Man came to the capital, he had been studying Empress Zhangsun's condition. With the School of Medicine's strength, it had only been a few months since the School of Medicine had attacked Empress Zhangsun's condition. The School of Medicine was also caught off guard!"
The School of Medicine had spent a few years treating bone injuries for the people of the Tang dynasty for free. They had accumulated a large amount of experience in treating bone injuries. Only then were they confident that they could cure Li Chengqian's foot disease. However, Empress Zhangsun's Qi disease had only been studied for a few months. Not to mention, Qi disease was different from foot disease. It was a chronic disease that was very difficult to cure.
This time, Empress Zhangsun was really critically ill.
