There were about 1,500 physicians gathered in the Hundred Herbs Garden. As soon as they arrived, they began to discuss among themselves, all expressing disbelief that Zhu Yunwen could possibly have any means to treat someone with an inflamed wound.
Especially since these people were all doctors, they knew all too well how difficult it was to treat inflamed, swollen, and suppurating wounds, which could easily lead to death. For Zhu Yunwen to claim he had a way to treat it was, of course, a joke to everyone.
This also makes more people want to come and see the joke.
After all, this legendary grandson of the crown prince seems to have never made a mistake, but does he also understand medical matters?
This is somewhat unbelievable.
Thinking of this, everyone showed mocking expressions, and as soon as Zhu Yunwen arrived, doctors and physicians immediately stood up and spoke:
"Your Highness, you sent us today to say that you have a method to treat inflamed, swollen, and suppurating wounds, so we have come."
We can only hope that His Highness the Crown Prince won't disappoint us. After all, practicing medicine and saving lives is not something to be taken lightly or joked about.
Another doctor also stood up and said:
"That's right. This kind of thing should be taken very seriously. If His Highness the Crown Prince is just using some petty tricks to play with us, then it would be a great insult to us."
From now on, not only will we no longer be able to interfere in the affairs and people within our medical community, but we might also lose public trust and reputation because of this.
Hearing their words, Zhu Yunwen sneered inwardly.
Their attitude towards him, their mockery of him, ultimately stemmed from Zhu Yunwen's earlier proposal for the court to establish unified medical clinics and for these physicians to teach their medical skills to a large number of students, which fueled their resentment towards Zhu Yunwen.
They believed that Zhu Yunwen had threatened their interests and was trying to steal their livelihood.
So now that there's a way to target Zhu Yunwen, they naturally won't let it go.
Zhu Yunwen remained unfazed by their aggressive words.
After all, these people are too hypocritical, and Zhu Yunwen must demonstrate his skills to show them what true medical expertise is.
In Zhu Yunwen's view, medical skills are for treating illnesses and saving lives, and should never be mixed with personal gain.
However, among these doctors and physicians, a large number of them rely on their advanced medical skills and only think about passing on the knowledge to themselves, using the life, death, and illness of others to gain more profit for themselves.
They were even afraid that their so-called medical skills would be learned by others.
They were also afraid that others would learn their medical skills and make them lose their jobs.
They were even more afraid that the imperial court would actually open a medical clinic, cutting off their source of income.
This idea goes against the original intention of healing and saving lives. Yet these people, under the guise of inheritance, blatantly keep those medical skills in their own hands.
As a result, the transmission of medical skills will become increasingly poor, and in the end, the lineage may be completely severed.
As a time traveler, Zhu Yunwen would get angry every time he heard others mocking traditional Chinese medicine in his later life.
Does that mean traditional Chinese medicine is really that bad? Not at all. After all, traditional Chinese medicine has been passed down for so many years and it definitely has certain skills.
But why did traditional Chinese medicine eventually decline?
It is because these doctors often hold back their skills in the transmission of traditional Chinese medicine, and are unwilling to pass them on to their apprentices, fearing that if others learn them, they will lose their livelihood. As a result, many good medical skills and traditions have been lost.
As a result, in later generations, traditional Chinese medicine declined, allowing Western medicine to dominate.
Western medicine happens to have this spirit of sharing.
This is also why Western medicine was able to rise so rapidly.
Therefore, Zhu Yunwen wanted to change this situation not only for the present, but also for the future.
Things that heal and save lives should never be forgotten at any time.
There should never be a time when many traditions and unique skills are lost.
Because that would truly cost lives dearly and result in enormous losses.
Thinking about this, Zhu Yunwen became even more determined in his decision.
He took a deep breath and then spoke, ignoring the mocking voices of the crowd:
"Gentlemen, there's no point in saying more. Since you don't believe me, let's just show you."
As he spoke, he waved his hand.
Immediately, dozens of soldiers with external injuries came forward.
These soldiers all sustained external injuries due to various circumstances.
Crucially, they were all infected with bacteria, resulting in redness, swelling, and pus formation.
This situation has left many doctors helpless.
Zhu Yunwen glanced at the wounded soldiers and asked the doctors and physicians present:
"As you can see from the condition of these soldiers, if their wounds are not treated promptly and they do not receive effective medical care, it could lead to very serious consequences, or even directly threaten their lives."
So, I ask you, all you highly skilled doctors here, do you have a way to effectively treat them?
Upon hearing Zhu Yunwen's words, a doctor immediately stood up and said:
"Your Highness, are you trying to make things difficult for us? Or do you really not know anything about medicine?"
These people clearly have infected wounds; they are red, swollen, and pus-filled, and have even ulcerated.
It was almost impossible to save them, and I believe that none of the doctors present had any way to treat them.
