Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Although he couldn't help complaining that Cheng Yaojin was unreliable, Li Xin also knew that this old guy just looked out of tune, and he was full of thieves and thieves in his heart.

He quickly cheered up and said, "Of course it's true. As long as the wound is debrided and sutured properly, it is definitely not a problem to reduce the death rate of wounded soldiers by 20 to 30 percent."

Cheng Yaojin nodded slightly, and said: "After all, this matter is to be reported to His Majesty, so don't exaggerate, just tell the truth, so as not to cause trouble."

exaggerate? In fact, I was afraid that you would not be able to accept it, so I deliberately kept it a little conservative!

Li Xin pursed his lips secretly, and said seriously: "The boy has absolutely no lies."

Cheng Yaojin nodded again, and said, "So, the wounded barracks management method is really effective?"

Li Xin replied: "Yes, if you can strictly follow my method of management, plus the necessary treatment such as debridement and suture, it will not be a problem to reduce the death rate of wounded soldiers to less than 50%."

"Do you have a general charter? Show me first." Cheng Yaojin asked.

Li Xin took out the results of his work last night from his bosom, and put them in front of Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin picked up these thin sheets of paper, looked at them for a while, and cursed: "Why do you write like a dog? It's not as good as me! So you have the nerve to call yourself a scholar?"

Li Xin: "."

Damn, calligraphy with a brush is really hard to write!

Li Xin silently made up his mind that he should study pencils, pens, and quills when he goes back. He really can't play with brushes.

Of course, Cheng Yaojin's own handwriting is not very good. However, as a senior general in the military, he often has official contacts with the ministers of the DPRK and China, so he still has a feeling for the good-looking and ugly characters.

Cheng Yaojin scanned the content cursingly, frowned, and said, "Washing. The bandages used for hand washing should be boiled in boiling water first? Then it will be useful?" To be honest, he thought Li Xin would write something unexpected What he didn't expect was that it was all such seemingly ordinary disposal methods, which made him a little hard to believe that acting in accordance with Li Xin's "Regulations on Sanitation Management of Wounded Barracks" could produce any miraculous effects.

He is also a veteran, and he has been to the wounded barracks no less than hundreds of times. He knows better than anyone else what kind of purgatory it is like on earth. Therefore, he fully understands what it means for an army to reduce the death rate of wounded soldiers. He must treat these things Li Xin raised with caution.

After a long time, Cheng Yaojin put down the thing in his hand. Although he didn't know how effective this thing would be, he could at least be sure that managing the wounded barracks according to this thing would not bring any harm other than a little trouble. This is very important. It doesn't matter if you don't get a reward after submitting something, at least you can't be punished for it, right?

He said: "I will make a private report to His Majesty tomorrow. Your thing will probably be handed over to the medical officer in the palace and the military doctor in the army for review. You may be sent for questioning at that time. You'd better prepare a little bit. Don't lose my face at that time."

Li Xin nodded.

Cheng Yaojin smiled suddenly, and said in a relaxed tone: "It's the first time I know you have such a skill after so many years. If this health regulation is really as useful as you said, I will definitely ask His Majesty to give it to you." If you ask for a military post, then you will be under my command, and you can make some military achievements, and you will be named a general in the future, and it will not be considered a disgrace to your father's name."

Li Xin knew that Cheng Yaojin said these words out of good intentions. But he still smiled wryly and shook his head, "Uncle Cheng, I don't want to be an official."

After all, it was the beginning of the Tang Dynasty at this time, and there were a lot of princes and princes of various states, so they were not particularly valuable. Most of the time, specific issues had to be dealt with in detail.

When Li Xuandao was still alive, the position of king of Chu was very honorable, because he was the former prince, and he also made great achievements in wars, big and small. , of course awe-inspiring.

But after Li Xin inherited the position of King Chu, King Chu soon became synonymous with "dandy". In addition, Li Xin has no official position, and besides his noble status, he has almost no power. Who would be afraid of him?

To a certain extent, Li Xin's actual status is exactly the same as that of Li Shimin's princes. They are all kings and kings at every turn, and people are respectful wherever they go, but in essence, they are no different from empty airs. .

Cheng Yaojin and Li Xuandao were old friends, so of course he didn't want Li Xin to be like a useless prince who would eat and wait to die, so he proposed to help him enter the court as an official. You know, Cheng Yaojin has always kept a low profile, and he almost never participates in any political games except for fighting to be the first. He was willing to ask for an official position for Li Xin, because he really loved Li Xin very much.

However, Li Xin still refused to accept it. This made Cheng Yaojin a little annoyed.

"You brat, what are you thinking? Do you really plan to never set foot in court?" Cheng Yaojin said with staring eyes.

Li Xin nodded, and said: "I would rather Your Majesty reward me with more money, let's forget about the official position."

Cheng Yaojin was silent for a moment, and finally couldn't help persuading him: "Do you know what your majesty will think if you insist on not being in office like this? Your majesty will think that you are jealous of him because of your father's relationship. What are the consequences? Why do you think you, a little king of Chu, can appear so special in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty? It’s not all because His Majesty loves you! Once you lose His Majesty’s love, people who used to have quarrels with your father, Have you thought about how people who think you stand in the way will deal with you?"

Talking about the king behind his back is not something an old fox like Cheng Yaojin would do. But he thought that Li Xin couldn't see this clearly, so he had to boldly express these concerns clearly.

Li Xinxin is as bright as a mirror and warm, but he still refuses: "Uncle Cheng, don't worry, I understand all the reasons you said, and I have talked with His Majesty openly and honestly before. He will not think that I suspect him Yes. Boy, I know what kind of temperament I am. It is really not suitable to go to the court to play tricks with those adults. It will be very embarrassing to count the money after being sold. Anyway, I have Your Majesty and all the uncles Protect me, let me be a peace prince with peace of mind."

Cheng Yaojin heard Li Xin say that he and Li Shimin had talked about these things, finally he was relieved a little, and opened his mouth to curse again: "My mind is full of messy useful things, but I just don't want to be an official and serve the country, you lazy bastard!"
