Until the early Spring and Autumn Period, sacrificial rites and doctors gradually separated, and experts began. Even so, people don't call it a doctor, but there are five flowers, such as apricots, hanging pots, and curing too much.
The first thing the doctor did appeared in the Six Classics of the Tang Dynasty and was completed in the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. There is a passage: "Forty doctors", but the doctors here are not what we said today, but some people are studying medicine. student
In the Song Dynasty, with the unprecedented development of our society, the medical cause also appeared. At that time, the imperial court set up a three-person medical bureau and a royal teaching workshop, and officials were responsible for the medical work of the imperial court.
Among the people, the imperial court also set up a special disease treatment institution called Huimin Bureau, and the officials sent by the imperial court were responsible for treating the people. Among them, patients in charge of treatment are divided into food practitioners, disease doctors and Jin Zhi doctors according to the medical nature of treatment, who are responsible for food safety, disease treatment and human injury respectively.
From this time on, people called the profession of a doctor "doctor" or "doctor". Dafa and Langzhong were the first ancient official names. What are the synonyms for doctor?
It's actually very simple. Before the Song Dynasty, Dafa and Langzhong were official posts. Every dynasty used it, but the use of each dynasty was not unified to the official steps. Take the Song Dynasty as an example, there are six (family, ceremony, soldiers), punishment and work). First-level officials, second-level officials are called waiters, third-level officials are called practitioners, and fourth-level officials are called employees.
Although the establishment of Thai hospitals in court is generally level 6, it is different. After all, in order to distinguish, the doctor-level official is called a doctor, and the second-level official is called a doctor.
Later, with the passage of time, in order to show respect for doctors, people began to refer to doctors with titles such as "Dafa" and "Langzhong", which are still used today.
An interesting phenomenon is that among the people in the north of China, the doctor is a doctor, and the word "big" is pronounced as [dài], which is different from the "official position" and "doctor [dàfū]" in the south, and is called "doctor".
In addition, there is a proverb that the ancients said that doctors see a doctor, while doctors in Jiangsu are called Lang. The so-called "Jiangsu Langzhong" is not called "Jiangsu Dafa".
In contrast, "Jiangsu Langzhong" can generally collect treatment fees according to family conditions, while some poor people don't even have medical expenses, which makes most Langzhong enjoy a good reputation in rural areas. In several versions of the "Nine-stream" ranking, in the ranking of ancient specialties in China, doctors have been firmly in the second place, second only to scenes. Ancient scholars had no volunteers. "No, this is a good doctor" (Fan Zhongyan)?
Nowadays, the appellation of "doctor" is relatively rare, and the word "doctor" is still used to address doctors in hospitals. After all, the word "doctor" is a first-class official of Trian Medical Bureau.
