Mo Xun was very happy. She moved into the large courtyard of the Women's Medical Office and began to write medical books. She planned to compile all her life's learning into a medical book to serve as a learning material for female doctors.
Zhang Miaoyu sighed and sat down on the cushion: "Women's menstrual disorders, pregnancy and fetal health, acupuncture and moxibustion are not easy for male doctors to approach due to palace rules and etiquette. It is indeed much more convenient to have female doctors in the palace."
Shen Wei nodded: "That's right."
In Daqing Kingdom, there are many female doctors with extraordinary abilities. Unfortunately, due to her status as a woman, she could only do odd jobs in the clinic and could not use her martial arts skills. The establishment of the Women's Medical Bureau is a platform for them to realize their ambitions.
The Female Medical Department of the Imperial Medical Bureau only treated ladies of the imperial court and concubines.
Shen Wei also planned to have Manager Ye open several large medical clinics in the most prosperous cities in Qing Kingdom. In the clinic, men and women are treated separately, so that women can also have private space to treat their illnesses.

Yanjing City.
Wei Yan Ji Pastry Shop is crowded with customers. In the inner courtyard, Ye Qiushuang, the female manager of Wei Yan Ji, opened the letter sent from the palace.
Ye Qiu Shuang has been the shopkeeper for several years, expanding the business territory for Shen Wei. Today, Ye Qiu Shuang is like a female businessman of her generation, with a sharper look in her eyes.
She read the words in the letter and murmured to herself: "Open a clinic and set up separate areas for men and women."
After a while, Ye Qiu Shuang smiled and said, "Okay, the boss ordered me to do what he ordered."
She trusted Shen Wei's decision. Over the years, Shen Wei's preset business map is being completed step by step, and most of Shen Wei's decisions are correct.
Ye Qiu Shuang was very efficient and the women's clinic was opened in less than three days.

Yanjing City.
The Jimin Medical Clinic in Dongfang is very busy. Winter is coming, the weather is cold and many people in Yanjing have caught colds and come to the clinic for treatment.
In front of the clinic, people waiting to see a doctor lined up in a long queue.
There was only one middle-aged doctor with a bad temper in the clinic. He was in his early forties, wearing a unbleached hat, and sitting behind the consultation desk.
"Doctor, my daughter has been vomiting everything she eats recently, and she has a fever." A woman in blue holding a child was so anxious that she burst into tears.
The middle-aged doctor didn't even look at the child, nor did he ask about the symptoms: "Go to the counter to pay for the medicine, twenty cents, and get three packets of wind-cold medicine."
The woman in blue holding the child was anxious: "My daughter is only two years old, can she drink those medicines?"
The middle-aged doctor said impatiently: “Next!”
There are many patients in winter. If the clinic takes advantage of the time to see one more patient, it can make more money. Anyway, the symptoms are similar and they are all treated as cold diseases.
The woman in green had no choice. This was the only relatively cheap clinic nearby. Other clinics were too expensive for her to afford. The woman in green could only carry her sick daughter to the counter to pay and get medicine.
At the counter, the person in charge of dispensing medicine was a female clerk in her late twenties. The female waiter glanced at the child in the arms of the woman in green, frowned, and said softly, "Can you let me see it?"
The woman in green took off the windshield from her daughter's face.
The female waiter took a closer look and felt the child's pulse again: "It's not a cold, it's a stomach upset."
The woman in green was shocked: "But, but the doctor said my daughter has a cold."
The female waitress frowned and was about to speak when she heard the clinic owner's scolding from not far away. The clinic owner cursed and poked the waitress's head: "Just get the medicine, why are you complaining here? Can't you see that other people also want to get medicine! If you don't want to do it, get out, there are plenty of people who will do it!"
The female clerk said politely, "Boss, this child obviously has a gastrointestinal disease, and can't use cold medicine. Cold medicine is very strong and the child can't stand it."
The owner of the clinic was furious: "What do you know as a woman? You have been packing herbs for more than ten years. Do you really think you know medical skills?"
The female waitress lowered her head silently, trying hard to suppress her sadness.
But out of conscience, the female waiter still reminded the woman holding the child: "The child does not have a cold, so don't give her cold medicine."
The woman in green was skeptical and didn't dare to risk her child's life, so she quickly left the clinic with the child in her arms.
The owner of the clinic was extremely angry when he saw the customer leave. He poked the female waiter's nose and said, "Get out of here! You idiot who is hindering me from making money! Get out now, and forget about your salary this month."
The female waiter was kicked out of the clinic.
The winter wind was cold and bleak. She wrapped herself tightly in her cotton coat and prepared to return to her residence. Just after taking two steps, a voice called out from behind: "Girl, stay!"
The female waitress turned around and saw the woman in blue holding her daughter.
The woman in green clothes said anxiously, "Miss, you said my daughter doesn't have a cold, so can you give me a prescription? To be honest, last time my neighbor got sick, he came to Jimin Clinic to get medicine, but he died without being cured... Alas, if I didn't really have no money, I wouldn't want to come to Jimin Clinic."
The waitress nodded, took out a piece of paper and pen, and wrote a prescription for treating gastrointestinal problems: "You should follow this prescription and it should be effective."
The woman in green thanked him profusely and left.
The female waitress let out a long sigh. She had been packing medicinal materials in the clinic since she was ten years old and had read a lot of medical books. When the doctors in the clinic were lazy, they would ask her to take the patient's pulse and diagnose the disease.
Over the years, she has been considered a skilled doctor.
Unfortunately, the owner of the clinic knew that she had good medical skills, so he only allowed her to pack medicinal materials.
The girl lowered her head and looked at her hands. Having lost her only source of income, she really didn't know where to go.
As she walked, she suddenly saw the neighborhood was full of people. She took a closer look and found that it was a notice from the Imperial Medical Bureau, announcing that the palace had set up a female medical department and was recruiting female doctors.
The waitress was stunned. She stared at the notice, as if the clouds in the cold winter sky had parted, revealing a ray of winter sunshine.

Changxin Palace.
Lu Xuan has been under house arrest for half a month. She is depressed all day and suffers from nightmares. I always dream that the entire Lu family was executed and my father and sister were left dead in the wilderness.
When the Tantai and Xie families fell, Lu Xuan gloated over their misfortune. Now she understood that the Lu family was just reaching the same destination through different means.
The emperor had no intention of keeping the Lu family from the beginning. The emperor supports the Lu family in order to suppress the Tan Tai family and the Xie family. Now that the Tantai and Xie families have fallen, as an example to scare the monkeys, other aristocratic families have ceased their activities one after another, and the Lu family is no longer useful.
If the Lu family continues to amass wealth and expand, not only will they be restrained, but the might of heaven will descend and the entire Lu family will be finished.
"Master, please drink some bird's nest to warm your body." The palace maid brought the bird's nest.
Although she was under house arrest, the food, clothing and other expenses in Changxin Palace were not reduced for the sake of the fetus in her womb.
Lu Xuan pushed the bird's nest away: "I can't eat it..."
Even if she gave birth to a prince, the emperor would not let the Lu family go. Lu Xuan was worried, thinking about how to break the impasse and how to survive. At this time, the eunuch's voice came from outside the house -
"Noble Concubine Chen has arrived."
