Lead:

In the history of our country, there are too many well-known figures, and there are several divine doctors. In ancient times, when medical conditions were relatively backward, the existence of doctors was particularly precious. Speaking of divine doctors, we have to mention Hua Tuo. Hua Tuo's medical skills were also extremely civilized in history, but it was really sad that he died at the hands of Cao Cao in the end. But why did Cao Cao want to kill Hua Tuo?

Why did Cao Cao kill Hua Tuo? Is it a skilled healer, or a charlatan?

1) A well-rounded divine doctor

Hua Tuo was a famous medical scientist at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. At that time, together with Dong Feng and Zhang Zhongjing, he was called the "Three Divine Doctors of Jian'an". Hua Tuo has been studying abroad since he was young and has traveled to many places.

Hua Tuo was very well studied in medicine, and he was able to distinguish between different diseases in that era at that time, and he was also able to know the parts of the internal organs, so that he could better determine what disease the patient had. According to the record of Hua Tuo, the situation of the two people in the army at that time was exactly the same, but Hua Tuo gave different prescriptions. Later, after the two were healed, they asked Hua Tuo why he gave two prescriptions. Hua Tuo said that the two people are one internal heat and the other is external heat, which requires different methods to solve.

Hua Tuo's magic does not stop there, there are many more about his healing deeds. His medical skills are very comprehensive, not informal, which is really admirable.

2) The heart of the career

Hua Tuo was very powerful in his medical skills, which was enough to prove that his mind was very clever. But he did not become an official, but a healer. In fact, some people have recommended him to become an official, but perhaps because the official position is too small, Hua Tuo is not too interested.

But at the same time, he also helped many officials to treat diseases, so his heart also had a yearning for his career, and he also regretted practicing medicine. Until Cao Cao heard of his magic, he summoned him.

3) Died at the hands of Cao Cao

After Hua Tuo was summoned by Cao Cao, he mainly healed Cao Cao's headaches. Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, and he thought about things more headaches than others. Hua Tuo told Cao Cao at the time that his disease could not be cured in the short term, and long-term treatment was only to prolong his life.

So the long process of treatment began, so that Hua Tuo wanted to go home. Hua Tuo found Cao Cao and said that there was something going on at home and that he needed to go home. But Cao Cao definitely continued to have headaches after that, and he wanted Hua Tuo to come back quickly. However, Hua Tuo wrote to the author that his wife was ill and needed to be postponed.

The headache itself was very uncomfortable, and Cao Cao naturally wanted Hua Tuo to return quickly. So Cao Cao, who was suspicious by nature, sent someone to Hua Tuo's house and explained that if he saw that his wife was really sick, he would give Xiaodou four thousand liters and relax the time limit. If Hua Tuo lies, he will be arrested directly.

And Hua Tuo really lied, he just didn't want to answer the call. Hua Tuo was also arrested in this way, and Cao Cao also deeply distrusted Hua Tuo, and even Xun Yu's intercession with Cao Cao was unsuccessful, and Hua Tuo was tortured to death. Even in the end even his medical books disappeared.
