The Little Miracle Doctor of the Hongwu Era

He has already succumbed to the poison and died. I cannot hold on any longer.

Writing about the era of Zhu Yuanzhang is difficult because Zhu Yuanzhang was practically cheated; he started with just a bowl 😰.

The more I read, the more tedious it becomes. You, a modern person, only say that banning the seas is unacceptable, but you don't explain why. You say the profits at sea are great. Why are the profits at sea so great? Just tell me! With just these two slogans, it's no wonder Zhu Yuanzhang killed you. In the early Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang hated the remnants of Chen and Zhang to the bone.

Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite thing to do was kill people. Basically, most of those who were corrupt or followed him in conquering the country did not survive. The author thinks that Zhu Yuanzhang might kill the protagonist.

The prince forced the protagonist to treat an illness, threatening to kill him if he failed. Instead of seeking revenge, the protagonist fawned over him, perfectly embodying the image of a subservient person. He could have easily killed the royal family and army by inoculating himself with smallpox or some other virus, yet he chose to treat the royal family—a thankless and arduous task.

There are too many flaws. At first, he was incredibly cowardly when he saw Little Pig and Old Zhu; later, he dared to beat up the Prime Minister's son—a huge change in personality. And is it really possible that a few peasants could defeat the wicked servants of a powerful family? Their usual diets are completely different; how could they possibly fight like that?

The white pigs we eat now came from the Americas; our native pigs are black and spotted. White pigs don't taste as good as native ones, but they yield more meat.

This novel is about Western medicine? Can Western medicine cure the root cause? Internal documents from Goldman Sachs in the US discuss the development of sustainable medicines.

If I were to travel back to the early Ming Dynasty, what would I be thinking? Rebellion is out of the question, so the only option would be to idolize Zhu Yuanzhang. However, Zhu Yuanzhang was born into humble circumstances, and although he gained power through legitimate means (which is also where he's often praised), I feel his vision was too limited.

After reading the book's synopsis, my first thought was, "Before his death at the end of the Hongwu reign, Emperor Hongwu left a secret edict stating that the Ming Dynasty would not allow such an awesome person to exist. He was specially granted the privilege of being buried with the emperor."
