Xiaocao seems to be really "cold-blooded" recently. Apart from being still busy with the preparations for the hospital, she has only taken over a handful of patients. More often than not, it is the people from the Imperial Hospital who come back from seeing patients and ask her to take a look at the pulse and consider it, and that's all.
Since "taking over" the Imperial Medical Bureau until now, all efforts have not been in vain, and everyone has gained in varying degrees. Moreover, as the grass is the least willing to be complacent, as long as you enter this industry, the opportunities are great. Therefore, these young doctors are like the tender leeks, growing one after another, which is really pleasing to see.
—You should know that these people are actually quite talented. They started to identify medicinal materials when they were very young. However, apart from their family background, it was difficult for other disciples to really come into contact with medical skills in the early stages. Even if they were exposed to them later, except for a few individuals, they probably could not really inherit the master's mantle.
Xiaocao is different. As long as you want to learn, are willing to learn and can persevere, you can read medical books and have opportunities to practice. What's more, he will take out a certain amount of time every day to give personal guidance. Therefore, those who get the opportunity will work harder than others - of course, there is also the factor of wanting to stand out in front of Xiaocao and get a better chance to enter the hospital.
There was basically no impact on Xiaocao's side, but the situation on Chaotian's side was not so peaceful.
Wei Tingyu refused to give up and sent people overtly and covertly to investigate the matter to the end whenever he got the slightest clue. Although he did not catch the biggest fish, he still picked out two bigger ones and reported them directly to Emperor Xuanren without any hesitation. Emperor Xuanren would naturally not let Wei Tingyu off easily for playing tricks in the imperial examinations and directly dismissed him from his post and investigated him.
However, this seemed to be just the beginning. Some victims were beaten with a stick and filed a lawsuit directly to Kaiping Prefecture, saying that a certain official condoned his relatives to occupy good farmland and beat up innocent people, making their lives almost unbearable.
Such a thing naturally alarmed Emperor Xuanren at the first moment. There was nothing to say and it had to be investigated thoroughly.
The incident was indeed true, it was just that the official's brother-in-law did the good thing in his name. Even so, he could not escape the blame and was demoted and fined. He had hoped to make further progress, but it was completely shattered. Afterwards, the official's wife was almost divorced, and it was only after his children begged for mercy that this was saved. However, his wife was completely despised and cried every day.
However, the matter was not over yet. Another inspector impeached a certain official for not managing his household properly, and a member of his clan had abducted a married woman. Not only that, but he almost killed her husband. If it had not been discovered early, someone would have died.
These inspectors include not only those inside the imperial city, but also those outside the imperial city, covering all the surrounding places. They have been like crazy lately. Then there is a certain family that lends money at high interest, and their wives and children accept bribes under various names. There are even some that use nunneries as cover to become secret prostitutes, using their beauty to win over or frame people.
All these things made the level of anger in the court almost as high as that in the vegetable market.
This also left many officials dumbfounded. Although these things had happened in the past, they were only one or two incidents occasionally. Why did they all come out at once this time
Emperor Xuanren's face also darkened. It would be fine if it was any other time, but he had just turned 50. Couldn't he have a couple of days of leisure and enjoyment? No more questions. Investigate thoroughly. As long as the final result is true, all will be dealt with severely.
This investigation was like pulling out a radish and bringing out the dirt. People who originally thought it had nothing to do with the matter were eventually implicated in a roundabout way. It really felt like a sudden disaster. It was unfair, but to be honest, it was not really unfair. In the end, they could only accept it with a pinch of their nose.
However, as more and more of these things happened, some people began to think that something was wrong. Why did most of them seem to involve the inner house of the clan members? On the surface, there was nothing wrong. There was nothing in common, and no connection. So, this was actually an illusion? Was it just a coincidence that they were all together
However, as an old fox in the officialdom, he never thought that anything was a coincidence.
However, although the matters were not too big, because there were too many of them, the scope of impact was wide, causing Emperor Xuanren to be in a bad mood and to feel a bit panic-stricken. No matter whether it was the officials or the princes, they all kept their tails between their legs and did not dare to investigate at this time, not to mention those who had something to hide. They had to clean up the mess quickly and not suffer the consequences at this time.
To be honest, Fan Wuguo didn't care much about the affairs of Caotang. As a duke, he would only go there occasionally even during the grand court. But he paid close attention to this matter. The reason for that was, of course, that he wanted to see how evil Wei Tingyu could be.
As a result, the little bully couldn't help but pat his heart in joy. Fortunately, he didn't offend him too much, otherwise, he might have secretly plotted against him sometime and he wouldn't know what was going on.
At this moment, Wei Tingyu was kneeling in front of Emperor Xuanren.
What he did might be kept secret from others, but Emperor Xuanren knew something about it, and it was he himself who revealed the truth. He was "taking personal revenge" and he collapsed in front of Emperor Xuanren.
Actually, these matters are not his business.
