The days have passed, and in a blink of an eye, it is March again, the spring breeze is blowing, the flowers are fragrant and the birds are singing, and a season of recovery of all things is coming again. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

Zhu Youzhi is busy with government affairs every day and has not been in Kunning Palace for a long time. On this day, a little eunuch came to report that the prince was in the queen's palace and was clamoring to see his father, so he had to rush to see him.

As soon as he entered the harem, he saw that the queen was crying with Mrs. Jin, and when he saw him coming, the latter cried out loud.

Zhu Youzhu was surprised, and couldn't help asking, "Why is this the queen?" ”

The queen sobbed and said: "Your Majesty, Li Mengyang, the head of the household department, once wrote to the emperor and sued the concubine's family, but there was no basis for what he said. Didn't the emperor promise me to put him in the Jinyi Guard? I recently heard that the emperor intends to release him, but is there such a thing? ”

"It is true." Zhu Youzhu suddenly realized that Li Mengyang was a newly promoted minister, who was upright, and not long ago he wrote a letter denouncing maladministration, including impeaching the queen's brother Zhang Heling. Because there is no conclusive evidence, this person is indeed too stubborn and needs to be suppressed, so Zhu Youzhu also locked him up according to the queen's words. But it's almost over, can't you let people out and continue to do things?

"Your Majesty, he slandered the queen, the emperor can't let him go!" Mrs. Kim also spoke.

"Slander the Queen?" Zhu Youzhu was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, Your Majesty, he slandered the queen as the Zhang family in his play, and the following crimes are not punishable!"

Zhu Youzhu thought about it for a while, it should be the last sentence of Li Mengyang's recital, "Those who are thick with Zhang's are the best", which does sound like scolding Queen Zhang's "Zhang's".

"Alright, haven't I already imprisoned him in Jinyiwei Prison? The pass has also been closed, and the lesson has been learned, so the queen should be satisfied. ”

"How's that going to work?" Mrs. Jin was quite unreasonable, "Li Mengyang slandered the queen and slandered the royal family, and the crime is hard to escape, so he should be beheaded!" ”

"Nonsense." Zhu Youzhu was dissatisfied but said calmly.

"Oh my God, Your Majesty! Someone bullied the queen, the emperor still doesn't make decisions for us, and our Zhang family has no face to see people now! Queen, queen, I also blame you for not being angry, why did you only give birth to a prince, and then each of them was insufficient, and it was difficult to preserve? It is said that the mother is poor and the child is expensive, we can't afford it......" Mrs. Jin was disappointed when she heard Zhu Youji's words, and grinned and cried. While crying, he also secretly observed Zhu Youji's reaction, and saw that his expression was cold and unmoved, and suddenly the fire rushed up, and he rolled on the ground and made a bitter noise.

Zhu Youji didn't expect that Mrs. Jin had not only not restrained herself over the years, but had become more and more inch-in, and would make such a wild move. He hated her for being so uneducated, so he pushed the table and said indifferently: "Come on, spread my will, release Li Mengyang from prison, and fine her for three months, and the matter will be over." ”

After saying that, he left Kunning Palace without looking back.

As soon as he left, Mrs. Jin got up from the ground, wiped her face and rushed to the queen's side, worrying: "What kind of soup did the emperor drink, why is he so decisive?" ”

"Say no more, Mother."

The queen bit her lip, not knowing what to do for a while. She thought that there was no threat now, but she didn't expect Zhu Youzhu to have such an attitude, and she clearly refused to let her.

Mrs. Jin was willing to rest, and continued: "No, if it continues like this, if the emperor finds that girl one day, or if he no longer feels indebted to the queen, then our status will be completely finished, and the queen mother may not have a share!" ”

This made the queen feel very bad.

……………………

Strange to say, in April of this year, the weather was extremely hot, and from time to time there was news that someone was killed by heat, which was as hot and unbearable as the year Zhu Youzhi was born.

Zhu Youji's body also weakened day by day as he expected.

A few months ago, he went out of the palace to ask how much time he had left, and the result was exactly the opposite of the optimism of the Tai Hospital—no more than three years.

He had no choice but to deal with court affairs like crazy, and forgot to work hard.

And the other half, someone begged for medicine for him with all his might.

Kunning Palace.

This is the first time Zhang Heling has entered the palace, and this time he entered the palace to discuss Zhu Youji's condition with Liu Wentai, the judge of the Queen and Tai Hospital.

"The emperor's illness was caused by malnutrition and fear when he was a child, and later the emperor was overworked, so it is difficult to fundamentally root the emperor's illness now. Only proper use of medicine to prolong life is a step. ”

After listening to the court's verdict, Zhang Heling and Mrs. Jin glanced at each other, and the latter said behind the queen: "Lord Liu, I have a home remedy here, I heard that it is most suitable for prolonging life and replenishing qi and nourishing the body, it is better to try it for the emperor, even if it can't cure the root cause, it will definitely have some effect." ”

After speaking, he took a few packets of medicinal materials from Zhang Heling and handed them to the court judge.

"This ......" the court judge glanced at the queen, after all, she was his real master.

The queen saw his thoughts, nodded and said, "Go quickly, it will be useful, and give the emperor a decoction." ”

The hospital judge took the medicinal materials back to the hospital with anxiety, and decided to open the medicinal materials to check them for himself for safety reasons. At the same time, in order to avoid suspicion, he also called Shi Qin, the envoy of the Tai Hospital, to refine the properties of the medicine together.

And at this time, Zhu Youzhu was coming out of the Wenhua Hall after finishing the noon, and felt that he was as kind as him, so he planned to go directly to the Tai Hospital to take medicine.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived outside the gate of the Tai Hospital, he heard the conversation between the court judge and the hospital envoy inside:

"The medicinal materials given by the queen are indeed extremely precious, especially this thousand-year-old ginseng, which is worth a thousand gold."

"Having said that, it is still unknown whether this old ginseng can be eaten......

"What does Lord Liu mean is that the emperor's body is not replenished?"

"That's one of them. Second, you see that the weather is so hot this year, it is obvious that the emperor's illness this time is not a cold, but a fever. ”

"Yes, the queen will not be ignorant. Wouldn't it be ...... to supplement old ginseng for fever?"

"Shh......h This is not a trivial matter, you and I should not know. ”

"What about this medicine?"

"Put it first. When the emperor's fever is gone, give it to the emperor again, so that both will not be offended. ”

"Lord Liu is wise!"

Zhu Youzhu walked alone in the huge Forbidden City, and he didn't know what it was like in his heart. To say that it is sad does not seem to be enough; Speaking of anger, it seems that there is not much; It's more indifferent, different from the previous indifference, it's the indifference that sees through everything.

Unconsciously, he suddenly found that the place he was walking towards was not the Qianqing Palace, but the Imperial Horse Supervisor of the East Garden.

A heroic figure galloping on a horse appeared in front of him, which made Zhu Youzhi forget Fang Cai's displeasure, purse his lips and smile.
