Empress Zhang cried and asked Imperial Physician Hu: "Imperial Physician Hu, can the emperor's body still be supported?"
Imperial Physician Hu pulled the queen aside and said softly: "Niangniang, the emperor's body has run out of oil, although it has been temporarily stable today, but it is not optimistic, let's hurry up and start arranging the future! If it is delayed, I am afraid it will cause something to be caught off guard." ”
When Empress Zhang heard this, she immediately couldn't cry, she fell on the body of the Emperor of the Apocalypse and cried: "Your Majesty, you are gone, what can the concubines do?"
Empress Zhang looked at it fixedly, and saw the skinny body of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, his cheeks were completely sunken, and his face did not have the slightest breath of a living person.
Who knows, suddenly, I saw that the Emperor of the Apocalypse actually opened his eyes slightly, and his mouth moved slightly, as if he was saying something.
Empress Zhang saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse open his mouth to speak, and hurriedly put her ear to the lips of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
Empress Zhang heard the Emperor of the Apocalypse say angrily: "Summon...... Summoning Wang Zhizheng and Huang ...... Liji, the king of letters......"
Empress Zhang nodded, stood up and called over to Feng Qiwen, the personal eunuch: "Quickly summon Wang Zhizheng, Huang Liji and King Xin into the palace to see you!"
Feng Qiwen nodded, turned around and hurried away with the two little eunuchs.
Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji were discussing the military affairs in Liaodong in the cabinet at this time, and suddenly saw Feng Qiwen running over in a panic, Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji were both taken aback, and asked at the same time, "What's wrong?"
Feng Qiwen stood up and said loudly in a duck voice: "The emperor dictated, passed on the cabinet chief assistant Huang Liji, and the cabinet counselor Wang Zhizheng entered the palace to see the driver. ”
Wang Zhizheng looked left and right, all the princes in the cabinet were there, and then looked at Feng Qiwen's panicked appearance, he knew that the emperor must be bad, but all the princes didn't dare to make a noise, so he said to Feng Qiwen: "Gonggong Feng, then let's go." ”
So, Huang Liji and Wang Zhizheng followed Feng Qiwen out and walked to the door, Wang Zhizheng asked Feng Qiwen in a low voice: "Is there a change in the palace?"
Feng Qiwen nodded: "The emperor is critically ill, pass on you, Huang Ge Lao and King Xin will enter the palace and explain the future." ”
When Wang Zhizheng heard this, his heart was shocked, he glanced at Huang Liji, and then stretched out his hand: "You go and spread the message to the king, I will enter the palace with Huang Ge first." ”
When they arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji were waiting at the door, Zhang Yan saw that the two were coming, and hurriedly walked over, her voice hoarse because of crying: "Two adults, come in, the emperor is waiting for you!"
Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji didn't have time to bow down to the queen and say goodbye, so they hurriedly walked to the sickbed of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
I saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse lying on the sickbed, his eyes widening at the patio, his face was pale, and there was no trace of blood.
Huang Liji and Wang Zhizheng knelt on the ground together: "The minister knocked to see the emperor." ”
Emperor Tianqi looked at Empress Zhang beside him with his eyes, and Empress Zhang hurriedly walked over: "Your Majesty, the two adults are here, do you have anything to explain?"
Emperor Apocalypse turned his head slightly, and said in a weak voice: "Huang Liji, Wang Zhizheng, after the banquet, support my fifth brother Xinwang to succeed to the throne......"
Huang Liji held back tears and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers are in charge." ”
Emperor Tianqi continued: "The edict of succession is here, at the queen's place, after the banquet, the queen ...... Issuance of the edict ......"
Wang Zhizheng said sadly to the Emperor of the Apocalypse: "Your Majesty, don't worry, everything is arranged......"
Emperor Apocalypse looked at the two of them weakly: "King Xin...... Shin ......"
Wang Zhizheng nodded: "Your Majesty, King Xin has received the order to enter the palace and is rushing to the palace!"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse continued to stare at the patio with godless eyes, breathing extremely weakly, as if there was nothing.
Time stood still.
Zhang Yan, Wang Zhizheng, and Huang Liji didn't speak, Zhang Yan sat beside Emperor Tianqi, Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji knelt on the ground, and everyone waited for King Xin to enter the palace.
At this time, King Xin strode in, and without saying a word, he fell to his knees and cried, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, I'm here, and my brother is here......"
Hearing that King Xin was coming, Emperor Tianqi suddenly had vitality in his eyes, and he turned his head to stare at Zhu Youzhen, who was kneeling on the ground and crying silently.
Then he smiled slightly: "Mu'er (Zhu Youjian's name), are you here?"
King Xin knelt and grabbed the cold hand of the Emperor of the Apocalypse with both hands and said, "Brother, I'm here, I'm Mu'er, I'm here, brother......"
Emperor Apocalypse's voice obviously had a little strength, and he smiled pale and weakly and said, "Brother is going to die, don't cry, you have to hold up the world of the Ming Dynasty." ”
Zhu Youzhen was grief-stricken, and tears fell on the skinny hands of the Emperor of the Apocalypse. I couldn't say a word of pain.
Emperor Apocalypse suddenly shook his hand: "Don't be afraid, you will soon be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, don't ...... Don't learn from my brother, be a good emperor, my brother is Yao Shun......"
Zhu Youzhen choked up and said: "Brother, I don't want to be the emperor, I want my brother, my father died early, my mother died early, Mu'er, I will have only one of your relatives, brother......"
Zhu Youzhen was in pain from the bottom of his heart, which caused Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji next to him to burst into tears.
And Zhang Yan couldn't cry anymore.
Emperor Apocalypse persuaded his younger brother instead: "What are you afraid of? The ancestors and ancestors are all watching you in the sky, you can do it!"
King Xin cried, "I am only eighteen years old......
Emperor Apocalypse looked at him with expectant eyes and said, "The road, I have paved it for you, there is a king, no one will touch you......"
King Shin finally calmed down and realized that crying could not keep the imperial brother.
He stopped his sad voice and said, "Brother Huang, you can explain, what do you want your brother to do?"
Emperor Tianqi looked at his wife Empress Zhang, who had lost a lot of weight: "Your imperial sister-in-law, in order for you to succeed to the throne, you have to take care of her......"
King Xin looked at the imperial sister-in-law, and then nodded: "Brother Huang, don't worry, I will definitely take care of the imperial sister-in-law and support the imperial sister-in-law like a mother!"
Zhang Yan cried and said, "Thank you, fifth brother." ”
Emperor Apocalypse nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji: "The two of you,...... I'll hand over my younger brother to the two......"
Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji both cried with their heads on the ground: "The ministers will definitely break their bones to support the king!"
Emperor Apocalypse nodded with satisfaction and said, "Wang Tiqian is a person who understands...... Settle him properly, don't kill him......"
Shin nodded.
Emperor Apocalypse continued: "Wei Zhongxian, don't be in a hurry...... Sit tight and move him again......"
Then he looked at Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji: "You stand down...... Our family said a few words about family matters......"
After Wang Zhizheng and Huang Liji knelt on the ground and bowed, they bowed and retreated.
Seeing the two of them go out, only Zhang Yan and King Xin were left in the house, and Emperor Tianqi said earnestly to King Xin: "The Ming Dynasty, internal and external troubles, all depend on you......"
Zhu Youzhen sobbed: "Don't worry, brother Huang, my brother will live up to the trust." ”
Emperor Apocalypse suddenly raised his voice: "After the situation stabilizes, get rid of Wang Zhizheng!"
Zhu Youzhen and Zhang Yan were speechless in shock.
Emperor Apocalypse repeated again: "After the situation is stabilized, get rid of Wang Zhizheng!"
Zhang Yan knew the inside story in advance, so she didn't interject, and King Xin asked puzzledly, "Brother Huang, why?"
Emperor of the Apocalypse said in a hoarse voice: "Wang Zhizheng is too terrifying, he has courage and strategy, and he will become Wang Mang Cao Cao if he is careful...... Get rid of ...... as soon as possible."
King Xin couldn't bear to say: "But Wang Zhizheng is dedicated to the ...... of the country."
Emperor Apocalypse said coldly: "Prevention is better than prevention......"
Shinoh was still a little incredulous.
Emperor Apocalypse said again: "I have already handed it over to your sister-in-law, until you sit firmly in the country, your sister-in-law will do it, don't stop ......"
King Shin's face was full of hesitation.
Zhang Yan saw that King Xin was unwilling to agree, and was afraid that Emperor Tianqi would die, so she comforted King Xin: "Lord Xin, what the emperor said is for the sake of Daming Sheji, you will always obey the order." ”
Emperor Apocalypse nodded faintly: "Daming Jiangshan...... Don't leave it behind...... Remember!"
King Xin finally gritted his teeth and was ruthless: "Brother Huang rest assured, my brother will remember it!"
"Also, take care of the nurse for me......" Emperor Apocalypse finally entrusted the Hakka family to King Xin.
King Xin nodded and said, "The minister must be as good as before." ”
After the Emperor of the Apocalypse confessed, he was finally relieved, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and fell into the final coma again.
