Chapter 116: Traveling to the Ancient Times to Open a Clinic 30 Farewell
Emperor Qinian smiled and said, "It's nothing special. The Imperial Hospital is just short of a judge. I wonder if Doctor Shen is interested in coming to the Imperial Hospital to compile medical classics and reform medical policies, and still diagnose and treat my illnesses. What do you think?"
Shen Qian's eyes trembled slightly: "Your Majesty, please stop joking. There is no woman in the world who can enter the Imperial Hospital and become an imperial physician."
Emperor Qinian laughed heartily and said, "When you saved me and General Gu, if someone told you that there was no such thing as a woman practicing medicine, how would you respond?"
Shen Qian: “…”
"Rules are made by people. As an emperor, I make rules for people all day long. If there has been no precedent in ancient times, then it will start from this dynasty. From today on, there will be a precedent for women to enter the Imperial Hospital and become imperial doctors."
Shen Qian subconsciously glanced sideways at Gu Jingxing. He was also looking at her with a hint of smile in his eyes.
It turned out that he had asked her to come to the capital for this matter. He didn't want her to stay in the capital before because the Zhou family was still powerful and he couldn't guarantee her safety 100%. Now, if she wanted to make a name for herself, he had cleared the obstacles for her.
However, Shen Qian is not interested in this.
Her mission in this world has been completed. If she had some time, she would rather return to Anrong and be with herbs and her disciples.
Shen Qian opened her lips and said, "Your Majesty's kindness, I shouldn't have refused, but I'm not interested in this. I'd rather be an ordinary folk doctor."
Emperor Qinian glanced at Gu Jingxing and then at Chen Qian, his expression rather helpless and lonely.
"I promised General Gu that I would only ask you once in person, but I would never force you. So, what do you want from me? Ask for anything. As long as I can do it, I will agree to it."
Shen Qian thought for a moment and said, "I hope what the emperor said is not just directed at me."
Emperor Qinian was a little stunned: "What did you say?"
"I hope that what you said will set a precedent for women to enter the Imperial Hospital and become imperial physicians from today on. This statement will not only apply to me, but also to all women in the world."
Emperor Qinian was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Well, well, well, you are worthy of being Doctor Shen. You have such a broad mind. I promise you! I will issue an imperial edict today and announce to the world that from now on, women can also enter the Imperial Hospital to become imperial doctors!"
Chen Qian also smiled. In this way, she would no longer have any regrets in this world.
After coming out of the palace, Shen Qian simply said goodbye to Gu Jingxing, then got on the carriage and left the capital.
Gu Jingxing stood at the palace gate, looking in the direction she left, for a long time.
After a long time, Emperor Qinian talked about this matter, still feeling lost: "General Gu, since you are alone, why don't you keep her by your side? Even if she was your sister-in-law, it is all in the past. You two are both unmarried, why don't you ask for it? I can also grant you a marriage."
When Emperor Qinian was still the King of Wei, he noticed at Suchuan Post Station that Gu Jingxing was interested in Shen Qian. However, he did not expect that the two of them would waste so many years and ultimately fail to be together, and they didn't even break that layer of window paper.
Gu Jingxing replied, "She has her own place to go. She also has things she wants to do. There's no need to force her."
Emperor Qinian was silent for a long time, and finally just sighed and said no more.
Chen Qian, who returned to Anrong, left this world soon after.
What made her feel relieved was that when she entered the settlement interface, she actually saw what happened after she left.
Cui Liu and A Ying were both very competitive. They both inherited her mantle and continued to practice medicine. Many years later, they went to the capital together to take the selection examination for the Imperial Hospital.
On the day of the selection, all the imperial doctors in the palace were present. The selection process was extremely strict, but Cui Liu and A Ying lived up to everyone's expectations and demonstrated their extraordinary medical skills in multiple rounds of assessments.
One of them is good at internal medicine, and the other is good at trauma. It can be said that they are invincible with their combined internal and external skills.
Both of them passed the assessment and were successfully selected into the Imperial Medical Service, becoming the earliest female imperial physicians in the history of China.
"They did it." Shen Qian looked proud.
After she said this, darkness appeared before her eyes, and Shen Qian knew that she was about to enter a new and unknown world.
