扁鵲是古時候有名的神醫。一天,當秦武王把自己的病情告訴扁鵲,扁鵲準備予以治療。
秦武王的近臣說:“大王的病在耳朵和眼睛之間,這是很難治的。如果處理不當,就可能把耳朵搞聾,把眼睛弄瞎。”秦武王聽了近臣的話,猶豫是否讓扁鵲治病。
扁鵲聽了很生氣,對武王說:“君王既然跟懂得醫理的人商量治病,卻又聽信不懂醫理的人胡言亂語,這怎么能治好您的病呢?如果用這種辦法來管理秦國的政事,秦國很快就會滅亡啊!”
Bian Que Met King Wu of Qin
Bian Que(407 B.C.-310 B.C.)was a famous doctor in ancient China.One day he was going to cure some disease for King Wu of Qin(329 B.C.-307 B.C.)after the King informed him of his illness.
But the King's favorite officials said,"our Majesty's illness resides between the eye and the ear.It is hard to deal with.If it is not treated properly,your ears will get deaf and eyes blind.Hearing this,the King hesitated whether to let Bian Que treat the disease or not.
When Bian Que heard of this,he was very angry and said to the King,"our Majesty wants the doctor to cure your disease,but listen to those who do not know medicine and treatment.How can you get your sickness cured?If you handle the state affairs like that,the country is sure to go to its doom."
