This day is not destined to be peaceful.

Murong Fu was physically and mentally exhausted, and it was rare for him to drink the medicine early and fall asleep. Unexpectedly, just after the hour, someone came to the palace in a hurry and asked him to enter the palace immediately. It was not Murong Fu who was on duty in the political hall today, but the palace suddenly sent someone to invite him, and it must have been a big deal. In view of this, even though Murong Fu was clearly tired and could fall asleep anytime and anywhere, he had to go to the Forbidden Palace with a full stomach of getting up.

Murong Fu hurriedly entered the palace with his chamberlain, and soon came to the residence of Zhao Xu, an official of the Great Song Dynasty, Funing Palace. As soon as Fang entered the Funing Palace, he saw that Empress Dowager Xiang, Concubine Zhu, Zhao Xu, Empress Meng and others were gathered in the Funing Palace, and their faces were solemn, as if they had encountered something difficult and thorny. Murong Fu didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. I didn't know that I had just stood up, and before I could open my mouth to ask, a scream suddenly came from the side hall of the Funing Palace.

"Kid...... The official ...... "The one who screamed was a female voice." The cry was so sharp and desperate and indignant that it made Murong Fu shudder.

After this scream, the owner of the voice was silent. In the side hall, only many palace maids shouted "Jieyu" in unison! After a while, Sun Qing, the head of the Tai Hospital, and the other two imperial doctors who Murong Fu had never seen before, approached the hall together. Without waiting for a few supremes to speak, the three of them knelt on the ground at the same time, and said with a frightened face: "Empress Dowager Qiyu, the official family, Liu Jieyu's pulse is vain and bleeding, this baby is ...... I'm afraid, I'm afraid I can't keep it......"

Poor Murong Fu was just frightened, and before he could taste anything from this shocking gossip, Emperor Zhao Xu, who had always been sitting on the throne with a gloomy face, jumped off the dragon chair. I saw that he didn't say a word, kicked Sun Qinghe's shoulder, and shouted like crazy: "Bao! Keep him for me! Protect! If my child is gone, I want your dog's life! ”

Sun Qinghe has served in the Tai Hospital for decades, and his medical skills are superb and highly respected, how can he withstand this kick of the young and powerful emperor at his current age? Everyone only heard a "plop", and Sun Yuan, who was over sixty years old, was kicked to the ground. I saw that his face was pale and trembling, but he hurriedly turned over and threw himself on the ground before he could cry out in pain, his forehead slammed into the floor, and he said repeatedly: "Weichen is incompetent!" Wechen is incompetent! ”

As soon as Sun Qinghe said this, the two imperial doctors kneeling beside him also did the same, and at the same time exclaimed "Weichen is incompetent".

Where can Zhao Xu listen to such words? was about to pounce on Sun Yuanzheng again, but before he took two steps forward, the whole person was stopped and hugged by Murong Fu. I only heard Murong Fu say in a deep voice: "The official family is angry! Life and death are fateful, and you can't force it! Zhao Xu was furious when he heard this, and he wanted to struggle to scold, but his waist suddenly went numb, and he lost his strength in an instant.

I saw Murong Fu half-supporting and half-hugging Zhao Xu back into the seat, and immediately turned his head to Sun Qinghe and asked, "Sun Yuanzheng, what is the situation with Liu Jieyu now?" Make it clear! ”

Sun Qinghe was already grateful when he saw that Murong Fu had come to stop Zhao Xu and save him from the pain of flesh and skin. Hearing his question, he hurriedly kowtowed and sighed: "Jieyu's body is delicate, and she has not been conceived for more than a month, and she is already unstable. Today again...... accidentally slipped again, and now Jieyu is bleeding more than enough and is already unconscious, this fetus ...... I can't keep it! ”

Sun Qinghe's voice fell, and the Queen Mother and Concubine Zhu wept together, crying repeatedly: "This ...... How can this be a good ......?"

And Queen Meng, who was originally standing beside the Empress Dowager Xiang, was even more grief-stricken, and suddenly "sighed", closed her eyes and fell.

"Queen! Empress! The palace maids beside Empress Meng hurriedly rushed over and cried around Empress Meng. The queen was heartbroken and fainted! Queen......"

The acting skills are expressive and the cooperation is exquisite! Murong Fu glanced at Empress Meng with envy, he really wanted to faint and leave this alone! But Murong Fu can cooperate with Queen Meng to act, but he really can't tolerate the crying of this room. Seeing the chaos of this crying, he finally couldn't help but shout: "Shut up!" ”

His voice contained internal strength, and the palace maids who were originally crying hard were frightened by him, and immediately stopped crying.

"You, send the queen to the apse to find the imperial doctor's pulse." Murong Fu sent away Empress Meng and the others, and then said to Sun Qinghe. "Sun Yuanzheng, it's about the emperor's heir, don't ignore it!"

Sun Qinghe also shook his head and wept and said, "Weichen is incompetent. ”

"No...... No! Protect! Keep him! Zhao Xu's hands and feet were so weak that he couldn't move, and he actually cried loudly when he heard Sun Qinghe's words.

Murong Fu sighed and gestured to the Queen Mother and Concubine Zhu.

Who knows, Concubine Zhu just pinched her handkerchief and bowed her head and wept.

Empress Dowager Xiang also wept, and after crying for a while, she choked and said: "Murong Qing, you are the left minister, you are in charge!" ”

If you can't keep this, what else can you do? Murong Fu was speechless. He knew that the Empress Dowager, Concubine Zhu, and even Empress Meng were reluctant to speak out because they were afraid that the official family would be angry afterwards. On the contrary, it is Murong Fu himself, the official family has always disliked it, and he has long been a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. From the perspective of politics, the heavenly family has no selfish affairs. Murong Fu is not only the prime minister, but also the great steward of the entire Great Song Dynasty, but it is not impossible for him to handle this matter.

"So...... It's important to save people! Murong Fu sighed lightly and said slowly. The official family and Jieyu are upright and young, but this child has no relationship with the heavenly family. In the future, if Jieyu takes care of her body, there will always be another child. ”

With Murong Fu's sentence, Empress Dowager Xiang and Concubine Zhu immediately persuaded Zhao Xu in unison: "Official, Murong Qing is right!" ”

Zhao Xu gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Murong Fu really didn't have the patience to wait for Zhao Xu to make a decision, the birth of an ancient woman was like breaking through a ghost gate, and this miscarriage was almost the same. If the child is no longer safe, the adult must be protected. He immediately said: "Sun Yuanzheng, it is important to save people." Go! ”

Sun Qinghe was waiting for this sentence, and hurriedly answered yes, and returned to the side hall with two other gynecology masters to save people.

However, after all, even Liu Jieyu couldn't keep it.

Murong Fu accompanied several supremes in the main hall until the time of the child, but only waited for Sun Qinghe and the other three imperial doctors to reply with a white face: "Jieyu is bleeding more than once, and she has already gone." ”

"Concubine! Love Concubine! Zhao Xu's hands and feet finally regained their strength, and he rushed to the side hall crying all the way. Zhao Xu and Liu Jieyu have always been very affectionate, and at this time, Liu Jieyu died of incense, and Zhao Xu was indeed heartbroken.

Murong Fu was also dumbfounded when he saw that a slip and a miscarriage could kill people. He still remembers that in history, this Liu Jieyu was deeply favored by Zhao Xu. Zhao Xu did not hesitate to fight with hundreds of officials for her, and wanted to depose Queen Meng, who had never committed a crime, and help her to be the new queen. In the end, I got my wish. Of course, later Zhao Xu fell out with the new queen again, and it will be a later story after the second abolition. This Liu Jieyu can say that the emperor can be called a generation of palace fighting masters, how can she die lightly? Murong Fuzhen was confused. However, the matter has come to this point, and it is beyond the power of manpower to undo it. Seeing that he was silent for a while, Fang sighed and said, "Queen Mother, Concubine, the festival mourning is smooth." ”

Concubine Zhu and Zhao Xu are mother and son, and their temperament has always been weak, so they couldn't help but whimper when they heard the bad news.

Empress Dowager Xiang was slightly stronger than Concubine Zhu, and after crying for a while, she said: "Murong Qing should go and persuade the official family, this is his first child with Liu Jieyu......"

By the time Murong Fu pulled Zhao Xu down from Liu Jieyu's body and sent him to the apse to change clothes and rest for sleep. Exhausted, he left the Funing Palace, and only Sun Qinghe was left outside the hall. Murong Fu had an old relationship with Sun Qing, and when he saw that he was waiting for him, he hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand.

Sun Qinghe looked around, and only after making sure that there was no one else pulled Murong Fu aside and bowed deeply. "Today, thank you Lord Murong for your kindness!"

"Sun Yuan is not polite." Murong Fu stretched out his hand to support him, and at the same time pressed his temples like pins and needles, and finally couldn't help asking. "With Imperial Physician Sun's medical skills, how can he not even save the lives of a small mother?"

Speaking of this, Sun Qinghe immediately sighed bitterly. "The news I received when I went down to the official was that Liu Jieyu accidentally slipped and had a miscarriage. When I went to check the pulse with two colleagues, this child would have been dead for a long time! If she had taken the opportunity to take the medicine immediately, Liu Jieyu would not have ...... However, the official family is determined to keep the emperor's heir...... This improper medication delayed for a few hours, even a seven-foot man couldn't stand it, not to mention Liu Jieyu, a weak woman? ”

When Murong Fu heard this explanation, he couldn't help but be speechless again.

“…… Now that Liu Jieyu's life is not guaranteed, my hospital is also at the end of the day, and it is time to return to her hometown. Speaking of this, Sun Qinghe couldn't help but sigh lightly. The official family is quite unreasonable and moody, and it is difficult to serve the commission, so it is only right to quickly pack up the burden and get out. But there is one thing...... I want to say that I know with Lord Murong. Speaking of this, Sun Qinghe immediately leaned into Murong Fu's ear and whispered. Xia Guan checked Liu Jieyu's pulse and found that Jieyu's miscarriage was not a slip, but someone was injured with a heavy object! ”

"What?" Murong Fu was immediately shocked when he heard this. This Liu Jieyu is a harem concubine, and she has always been favored by the official family, and even Queen Meng has to retreat. Now that she is pregnant again, who is so bold to hurt her, so that one corpse and two deaths? He had a vague idea in his heart, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

But after Sun Yuanzheng finished saying this gossip, he consciously repaid Murong Fu's kindness, and then left.

Murong Fu stood in place for a while, and just after thinking about the cause and effect, the cries of those palace maids and the howls of the officials couldn't help but echo in his head, and his whole head was throbbing. Murong Fu couldn't help but reach out and press the corner of his forehead again, and finally gave up thinking.

Just as he was about to leave the Forbidden Palace, another attendant walked over quickly, bowed down and said, "Lord Murong, the Queen Mother is invited." ”

Murong Fu felt that he could fall asleep standing now, even if he was summoning the Queen Mother, he still couldn't help but hold his eyebrows and sigh. "Cabinet Chief, please!"

"Your Excellency, please!" The chamberlain immediately replied, and led Murong Fu in the front half of his body. This chamberlain seemed to have the intention of befriending Murong Fu, and whispered when he saw no one around along the way. "My lord, the official family has lost the prince Jieyu, and I am afraid that I will anger the adult, so the adult should be cautious in the future."

"Oh? Why is that? When Murong Fu heard this, he immediately pulled out a pile of Jiaozi from his sleeve and stuffed it. I would also like to ask the Cabinet Chief for advice. ”

As soon as the chamberlain pinched the thickness of Jiaozi, he immediately looked like a spring flower, and said busily: "Don't dare to hide it from your lordship, there are gunshots in your lord's mansion today, and then Kaifeng Mansion ordered martial law in the whole city, and the official family is already worried...... Later, Liu Jieyu had a dispute with the official family for some reason, and the slave maid heard that the official family had said......"

Murong Fu saw that the waiter's face changed as if he was afraid, so he stepped forward and pinched his arm tightly, and said fiercely: "What did the official family say?" Murong Fu was carrying martial arts, and this pinching force firmly trapped the inner servant like iron tongs, making him unable to move.

The chamberlain was frightened by him, and immediately did not dare to struggle, and hurriedly replied honestly: "The official family said...... Say...... If there is a prince, do you have to force me to do a great job? ”

"I see...... Murong Fu was silent for a while when he learned the cause and effect.

Zhao Xu was afraid of flintlock pistols, lest he would be cold-shot in the midst of heavy guards, and the forbidden soldiers who guarded the Forbidden Palace were not issued flintlock pistols. Today, there were gunshots from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and then Kaifeng Mansion ordered martial law in the whole city, this is Zhao Xu is afraid that Murong Fu will force the palace to rebel! After the Shen Shi, although the martial law has been lifted in Kaifeng Mansion, Zhao Xu is still like a frightened bird, and Liu Jieyu came to report the good news and pregnancy at this time...... Liu Jieyu's death is really an unwarranted disaster.

The regulations of the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty were small, and Murong Fu heard a big gossip on the road, and soon came to the Longyou Palace where the Empress Dowager Xiang lived.

I saw that the Queen Mother Xiang's eyes were red and swollen, her face was haggard, and she obviously did not sleep. As soon as Murong Fu got up, the Queen Mother couldn't help crying: "Finally, there is a pregnancy in the harem...... Why, why is it gone? ”

Why don't you have it, don't you have to ask the official? Murong Fu said secretly to himself, and hurriedly persuaded deeply: "The Queen Mother mourns, and the coming day is long." ”

Empress Dowager Xiang was obviously not persuaded by Murong Fu's understatement, but she shook her head and cried again: "The official family has been married for many years, and there are no children so far. The country is not stable, and people's hearts are floating! ”

Murong Fu obviously understands this truth. But in history, Zhao Xu collapsed childlessly, and only then was his younger brother Duanwang Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne. This is purely because of Zhao Xu's own body, and it is more effective to cry and beg the Bodhisattva to the Queen Mother than to cry in front of Murong Fu. Murong Fuwei was really helpless and had nothing to do, so he was silent for a long time and had to persuade softly: "The official family is growing in the spring and autumn, and there will be a full house of children and grandchildren in the future, and the queen mother doesn't need to worry too much." ”

However, the Empress Dowager Xiang still burst into tears. Zhao Xu has always been jealous of Murong Fu and does not want him to know about the harem. And Murong Fu, in order to show his loyalty and selflessness, has never asked the palace. But these things can be hidden from Murong Fu, but they can't be hidden from the Empress Dowager. Zhao Xu was already weak and often sick, and last year he became more and more depressed when he was frightened by the two Xia people. The average life expectancy of the emperors of the Song dynasty was not high, and Empress Dowager Xiang was afraid that Zhao Xu would return to heaven before he could leave an heir. But this kind of talk is really rebellious, and the Queen Mother has thought about it in her heart for several years and didn't dare to mention it to others. I saw that she choked up for a while, and said: "The mourning family is watching coldly, and most of the harem women are not favored by the official family." Now that Liu Jieyu has passed away, there is no official family in the harem...... How about picking draft girls to enrich the harem? ”

Murong Fu's eyebrows jumped as soon as he heard this. According to the modern medical concept he knows, Zhao Xu is congenitally deficient, and if he indulges in being a groom night and night, it will only make the quality of sperm worse. As a result, the child will not be able to have children, or the children will not be healthy enough to die. What's more, with Zhao Xu's longevity in history, he will have to drive west in the next two or three years. Isn't it harmful to pick up draft girls now for life?

Seeing that Murong Fu was silent all along, Empress Dowager Xiang's face gradually turned cold, and she said quietly: "Could it be that Murong Qing is really as worried about the official family...... Dissenting? ”

"Weichen doesn't dare!" Murong Fu hurriedly knelt on the ground when he heard this. Between the lightning and flint, Murong Fu instantly realized: Empress Dowager Xiang's Longyou Palace has always been strictly forbidden, and what the chamberlain said just now was probably what Empress Dowager Xiang wanted him to know. Today's changes outside the palace not only made Zhao Xu frightened, but also made the Empress Dowager Xiang jealous. It's ridiculous that he is stupid and dull, and he can't see through this kind of suspicion, so he has to make it clear to the Queen Mother. Thinking of this, he immediately whispered: "Weichen is ...... in his heart So far, there is still only Princess Shushou, and she will never dare to damage her reputation after her death. ”

At the mention of Princess Shushou, Queen Mother's heart also softened. I saw her reclining on the throne, silently shedding tears for a while, and Fang sighed tiredly: "Murong Qing, the mourning family is also for your good." …… At the feet of the Son of Heaven, in the capital of the first good, those swords, arrows, guns and cannons can only hurt harmony! ”

"Wechen understands, Wechen thanks the Empress Dowager for her kindness." Murong Fu lowered his head and said insincere words, and for some reason, he became more and more disgusted in his heart. Over the years, in order to avoid suspicion and keep the position of the left prime minister, he never asked the palace and did not make friends with the forbidden army. I can't think of ...... "It's just that Weichen is worried...... is to choose a show girl to enrich the harem, and the official family only thinks that this is a trick of the micro-ministers, and they dare not get close. Or...... There is a second Liu Jieyu! ”

Murong Fu said it so clearly, Xiang Empress Dowager was immediately ashamed and angry, and immediately slapped the armrest and reprimanded loudly: "Presumptuous! ”

Murong Fu suddenly raised his head at this time, looked straight into the eyes of the Empress Dowager, and said word by word: "The Empress Dowager, the official family has been in power for less than two years, and being in such a hurry to recruit draft girls into the palace can only make the people of the world criticize the official family for being lustful and immoral!" In Weichen's humble opinion, the official family should take care of their bodies and get closer to the queen! ”

Empress Dowager Xiang attached great importance to Empress Meng, and when she heard Murong Fu say this, she was also silent, and sighed gloomily for a while: "The estrangement between the official family and the queen is deep...... But the heir can't wait! ”

"Then, although the official family has few heirs, the clan is flourishing." Murong Fu smiled playfully, and his tone was as low as a whisper. "If so...... If so...... Ministers, please, such as Emperor Renzong! "Song Renzong had no children, so he had to succeed Zhao Shu, the son of Zhao Yunrang, the king of Pu, as his heir. And Zhao Shu is the husband of the late Empress Dowager, Emperor Xianyingzong. It can be said that Zhao Xu's throne was originally picked up by his grandfather with good luck, and it is understandable to let the clan next to him taste it in the future.

When the Empress Dowager Xiang heard Murong Fu's mention, she was already shocked, and then looked at the other party's eyes with deep meaning, and she was even more silent and imaginative.

But Murong Fu only nodded and never said much, and immediately got up and said, "It's getting late, Weichen is leaving!" With that, he left the palace in a hurry.

Xue Muhua and Taishan waited outside the palace all night, until the sky was about to dawn, and then they saw Murong Fu holding on to the palace wall and coming out step by step like a wandering spirit. Noticing that his face was pale like a ghost, Xue Muhua and Taishan changed color at the same time, and immediately chased after him and held him tightly.

Xue Muhua hurriedly wanted to check Murong Fu's pulse, but Murong Fu only firmly grasped Taishan's arm, and gasped: "General's mansion ...... The flintlock pistols are all gone! As soon as the words fell, he could no longer support it, and fell into Xue Muhua's arms on his back, and the cold sweat on his body was forced out layer by layer like rain.

"Your Excellency!" Xue Muhua exclaimed and said busily. "Quick! Get in the car! Go home! ”

Taishan has an upright personality and only obeys Murong Fu's orders, so he only said angrily: "My lord said, I will go to the government hall today to deal with government affairs!" ”

"What other government affairs are you dealing with?" As soon as Xue Muhua heard Taishan's words, he became angry and immediately shouted. "The Zhao family is stingy, so they give such an official salary, do they want to use people to death? Say goodbye! Tell us now! ”

Murong moved his lips as if he wanted to refute, but he couldn't do anything about it. Soon, there was only darkness in his world, a quiet darkness.
