The Marquess of Yang's wife fell ill, seemingly quite seriously. Manbao first went to the Imperial Hospital, found Liu Sanniang as a medical assistant, and then proceeded to the Yang Residence.
Imperial doctors assigned to external diagnoses must bring a medical assistant with them; this is also the rule of the Imperial Hospital.
Although Liu Sanniang and her colleagues are now medical assistants in the Imperial Hospital, they actually spend most of their time in the Imperial Hospital Office, entering the Imperial Hospital only when on duty.
In the Imperial Hospital Office, they are required to both study and assist the doctors in teaching. The Imperial Hospital Office has decided that by winter, the first batch of graduating students will be selected, and by spring next year, they will be sent to newly built local medical offices to start their learning.
