Chapter 629
The emperor was seriously ill, Shangguan Xuanhao and the three princes hurriedly entered the palace after getting the news, and hundreds of civil and military officials were guarding outside the Zichen Palace.
If the emperor can't survive, then today, the world will change hands.
Many officials are worried, the queen's concubines, the four princes don't know what to do at the moment, the whereabouts of the sixth prince are unknown, life and death are uncertain, the seventh prince is still a child, but the only adult second prince is a person who only loves medicine and does not love the country, in the hearts of hundreds of officials, the second prince is the most unsuitable to be the emperor's son-in-law.
As for the three princes? The hundred officials who have always supported the lineage immediately rejected this idea, the emperor has never loved the concubine, and it is impossible to pass on the throne to the concubine, if there is really no one to pass on, they would rather the emperor pass on the throne to the second prince who is the most unsuitable to be the emperor, rather than to pass it on to the third prince.
Why? Because they have always supported the lineage, if the concubine counterattacks the throne, will they still have a good life in the future?
But the current situation, it seems that either the second prince or the third prince is not what they have been looking forward to, can they not be anxious?
"Why did the emperor's condition deteriorate overnight? Wasn't it good before?" asked Tobe Shangshu strangely, just in case, before he went out, he ordered the house to lock the door, and the situation was really a little bad.
"That's what the disease is, it's so violent and sudden that no one knows when it will strike. The Ministry of Rites Shangshu spoke.
"Prime Minister, has the emperor made an edict?" asked the Ministry of Industry in a low voice.
"I don't know!" The Prime Minister's head hurts, if he stands, it's fine, if he doesn't, he feels a trace of blood and rain on the tip of his nose.
"This is really sad!" said the voice of many people present.
The officials prayed in their hearts that the emperor must hold on!
I waited until the more reliable third prince and sixth prince came back before closing my eyes.
In Zichen Palace, the queen hugged the young Seventh Prince and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.
The handkerchief soaked in chili water is wiped in her eyes, and it is so spicy to her!
The queen's eyes were red, and tears fell drop by drop as she kept blinking.
Although the seventh prince is still a child, he has a mature mind since he was a child, and he knows that his father is just pretending to be sick, but when he thinks that the sixth emperor brother and the county lord of Rui'an fell off the cliff together, life and death are uncertain, and the queen mother told him to cry, so he couldn't help crying.
The imperial doctors, the Imperial Hospital is beginning to take turns to check the pulse of the emperor according to the rank.
Every physician who stepped forward to check the pulse shook their heads.
The Queen Mother was anxious and asked the head of the hospital: "Lord Yuanzheng, how is the emperor now?"
"Back to the Queen Mother, the emperor's pulse is like a floating number, there is no entry and exit, such as boiling water in a pot, there is no root, and the incompetence of the ministers is afraid that the limit is coming. "The hospital was overwhelmed with grief.
The Queen Mother fainted when she heard this, and the Queen Mother was hurriedly stepping forward to check the Queen Mother's pulse, and after making sure that the Queen Mother was fine, the Queen asked the Queen Mother to be sent back to Cining Palace.
"Father!" the third prince shouted mournfully.
Chang Guiren also burst into tears and cried in a low voice.
Shangguan Xuanhao was the first to step forward to check the emperor's pulse, and at this moment he was sitting on the sidelines thoughtfully.
At this time, it was the turn of Imperial Physician Lin to step forward to take the pulse, Imperial Physician Lin's hand was just on the emperor's pulse, the emperor suddenly grabbed his hand tightly, it seemed to be very painful, he opened his mouth, as if he wanted to speak, Imperial Physician Lin quickly leaned his head over, and blocked everyone's sight.
Everyone saw that the emperor was holding Imperial Physician Lin's hand tightly, half of his body leaned forward slightly, Imperial Physician Lin's ears were leaning against the emperor's mouth, and the emperor seemed to be saying something to him.
After a while, the emperor's whole body convulsed, and then he collapsed on the bed, and his hand hung down.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Emperor has died~~~" Imperial Physician Lin knelt down and shouted bitterly.
Shangguan Xuanhao, the queen, the three princes, and the seven princes all quickly ran to the side of the dragon bed.
"Father's ......"
The others knelt down at this.
When the officials outside the Zichen Palace heard this terrible scream, their hearts were shocked, and everyone knelt down in unison.
The third prince shouted again bitterly: "Father!"
Imperial Physician Lin wiped his tears: "The queen, the second prince, the third prince, and the seventh prince, please mourn." ”
The third prince's face was full of grief, he wiped his tears and asked, "Imperial Doctor Lin, did my father say anything to you before he died?"
When they heard this, they all looked at him.
What did the emperor say to Imperial Physician Lin before he died?
The emperor's words before his death are too important, this is about who the future master of this country is!
The queen's red eyes looked at Imperial Doctor Lin.
Shangguan Xuanhao also stared at him tightly.
The third prince looked at the emperor on the dragon bed with a sad face.
"The emperor said, saying that the throne will be passed on to the three princes. Imperial Physician Lin avoided the eyes of Shangguan Xuanhao and the Empress and spoke.
As soon as Imperial Physician Lin's words fell, the needles in the entire Zichen Palace could be heard.
The imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital glanced at the queen and the second prince, and then he didn't dare to breathe.
The queen's face was full of shock and disbelief when she heard this, and she said loudly: "How is this possible!"
Chang Guiren was also busy crying, her eyes were full of disbelief, she timidly glanced at the stunned queen and the third mother and son, but she sneered in her heart!
Shangguan Xuanhao looked at Imperial Physician Lin's eyes like torches: "Imperial Physician Lin, are you sure you heard it right?!"
Imperial Physician Lin nodded firmly, and said loudly: "Weichen heard it right, the emperor did say that the throne would be passed on to the third prince before he died. ”
Imperial Physician Lin's voice came out of the Zichen Palace.
The officials were shocked when they heard this!
How could this be possible! How could the emperor give up the prince and pass on the throne to the third prince!
Many officials turned their heads to each other.
They all felt in their hearts that Imperial Physician Lin had privately changed the emperor's edict.
"You are panicking, how can my father pass on the throne to him. Shangguan Xuanhao shouted.
"Weichen doesn't dare!" Imperial Doctor Lin hurriedly kowtowed.
"Hmph! Why don't you dare! Who doesn't know that you and the Third Emperor have always been close? Even if the Father Emperor passes on the throne to the Seventh Emperor Brother, it is impossible for him to pass on the throne to you! Imperial Physician Lin is definitely panicking!" Shangguan Xuanhao snorted coldly.
Many officials nodded when they heard this. How could a person with such a corrupt moral character as the third prince be the master of this country? If he was made emperor, wouldn't they have to wipe their necks clean and wait for their heads to be cut off?!
"Second Emperor Brother, I know you can't believe it, but I am also the son of my father, why can't my father pass on the throne to me! My father has already told me that I have the talent of an emperor. My father also said that he has been so cold to me for so many years, not because he doesn't love me, but because he wants to protect me!"
"Your Majesty, woo...... The concubine misunderstood you, the concubine should be damned......" Chang Guiren cried very cooperatively.
As soon as the words of the third prince came out, a large group of people were shocked.
