Chapter 440: Diagnosis
The emperor announced the dissolution of Zhongshu Province in the early days of the same day.
"After yesterday's discussion with all Aiqing, I decided to dissolve Zhongshu Province and delegate the affairs of Zhongshu Province to the cabinet and the six ministries, and the backbone personnel of Zhongshu Province will also be transferred to other departments."
Father-in-law Zhang immediately announced the distribution list:
"Zhang Fengji served as the secretary of Dali Temple, Lu Yiheng served as the secretary of the criminal department, Song Dong served as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Zheng used to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Officials......"
This list made proper arrangements for all the personnel in Zhongshu Province, so those people in Zhongshu Province who were qualified to go to court hurriedly knelt down and thanked them after learning about it.
After the early dynasty, the emperor called the three princes, Du Chenghuan, Liu Chengze and Yan Jinxuan to the Yinghua Palace to discuss secretly.
"Du Aiqing and Yan Aiqing, you are responsible for hunting down Yan Shichong, and Rui'er and Liu Aiqing are responsible for eliminating Yan Dang. Both of these tasks are very urgent and arduous, and I hope that you will do your best. The emperor said.
The four of them hurriedly knelt down to receive the order.
"At present, our people have been searching day and night for five days, but there is still no trace of Yan Shichong, Yan Aiqing, do you have a good plan?" The emperor asked Yan Jinxuan.
"Wechen dared to guess that he might have changed his appearance and then hid in some more secret place." Yan Jinxuan replied.
"If that's the case, do we have a plan?"
The crowd shook their heads.
"The most likely way to find a clue is to increase the amount of the bounty." Yan Jinxuan said.
When the allure of money is strong enough, there will still be people who are willing to take risks.
The emperor felt that it made sense, so he added another 100,000 taels of silver to the original reward. In this way, the total amount of the reward has reached 200,000 taels of silver, which is the highest amount of reward in the history of the Ming Kingdom.
The crowd secretly prayed that someone would come out and expose him this time.
Then everyone discussed how to get rid of the Yan party.
"Remove the twelve tribes one by one. And it should be cleared thoroughly. Yan Jinxuan proposed.
Everyone nodded, and the emperor said, "Then do it, the faster the better." ”
"Yes." The crowd responded in unison.
The next morning, the emperor summoned the leaders of the twelve departments, Du Chenghuan, Yan Jinxuan, the three princes, and Liu Chengze to the Yinghua Hall to discuss secretly.
The emperor asked the leaders of these twelve departments to submit the list of subordinates, and then asked Du Chenghuan, Yan Jinxuan, the three princes and Liu Chengze to cooperate with them to clear the list of Yan Dang one by one.
An activity of the 'Qingyan Party' was carried out vigorously.
Yan Jinxuan was also busy because of this, and it was common to go home late at night.
On this day, when Yan Jinxuan returned to Changxingmen, he was told by the housekeeper Ouyang Kuan that Yan Yunpei was sick.
"I heard that it was a stomachache, and my face turned white from the pain." Ouyang Kuan said.
Yan Jinxuan immediately went to Chaoxingmen.
Yan Yunpei faintly felt some pain in his stomach a few days ago, and the pain was especially severe when he went down today, so he fell directly on the seat on the way home.
Later, when I got to the door of the house, I couldn't even get out of the carriage.
When Mrs. Lu and Yan Jinhao learned about it, they hurriedly came out to help him go back to the room and lie down.
Yan Jinhao immediately sent someone to invite Dr. Zhou to come.
After Dr. Zhou's diagnosis, it was found that Yan Yunpei had a goose-egg-sized tumor on the left side of her abdomen.
There are two types of tumors: malignant and benign, and Mrs. Lu and Yan Jinhao were a little uneasy when they saw Yan Yunpei's painful expression. I'm afraid it will be malignant. So the expressions of the two of them were very solemn.
"Maybe this is just my personal speculation, for the sake of accuracy, please ask Mrs. and Uncle to invite one or two more doctors who understand this to take a look." Dr. Zhou said.
"Is there a cure for your diagnosis?" Yan Jinhao asked Dr. Zhou.
"Pills, dressings, and acupuncture." Dr. Zhou said.
No one in the Ming Kingdom has ever tried tumor resection, so although some people who practice medicine have thought of this method, they dare not try it easily.
"Then let's take medicine, dressing, and acupuncture first." Yan Yunpei, who was lying on the bed, said with difficulty.
Dr. Zhou gave him acupuncture. and prescribed to take and compress.
Yan Jinxuan hurried over.
I saw Yan Yunpei lying on the bed with a pale face. Yan Jinxuan couldn't help but feel nervous. He walked quickly to the bed, leaned over and asked with concern, "Dad, how are you feeling now?" ”
"Much better." Yan Yunpei looked at him and replied.
Yan Jinhao handed him an embroidered pier. Yan Jinxuan sat down on the edge of Yan Yunpei's bed.
After sitting down, Yan Jinxuan carefully asked Dr. Zhou about Yan Yunpei's situation.
Dr. Zhou explained to him one by one.
Yan Jinxuan's brows slowly twisted.
After sending Dr. Zhou away, Yan Jinxuan said: "I know an imperial doctor in the palace, I will ask him to come and diagnose you again tomorrow." ”
Yan Jinhao and Mrs. Lu nodded.
"Daddy, I remember you had two upset stomachs last summer, have you been like this since then?" Yan Jinxuan asked.
"Occasionally, it hurts, but it's not noticeable." Yan Yunpei said.
Yan Jinxuan's expression suddenly changed solemnly.
So he didn't have this symptom for a day or two.
"Daddy, for the sake of your health, why don't you ask the emperor to resign after finishing this year?" Yan Jinxuan looked at Yan Yunpei and said.
"I'm almost a decade away from turning sixty-five." Yan Yunpei said.
Officials of the Ming Kingdom generally resigned at the age of sixty-five before returning to their hometowns.
"It's still your body that matters right now. Now that my eldest brother and I are enough to feed the whole family, you don't have to work so hard. Yan Jinxuan said.
Yan Yunpei was a little hesitant.
Yan Jinhao also said: "Daddy, it's better to retire and recuperate with peace of mind." ”
Mrs. Lu thought for a while and said, "Yes, your health is not good in the first place, and if you continue to work like this, I am afraid it will be even more detrimental to recovery." ”
Yan Yunpei closed his eyes and pondered for a while before saying, "Okay, then I'll apply after the New Year." ”
The three of them looked at each other and shook their heads one after another.
The next day, after Yan Jinxuan left the palace, he returned with a palace doctor to diagnose Yan Yunpei.
After diagnosing Yan Yunpei, the palace imperial doctor immediately pulled Yan Jinxuan aside and said, "Lord Yan, the tumor in your father's abdomen is probably malignant." ”
"What should be done?" Yan Jinxuan asked.
"To be honest, there is no medicine that can completely cure, only temporarily control the disease, if the condition does not worsen, he may live for two or three years, if the condition deteriorates quickly, he can live for another year and a half at most."
Yan Jinxuan's expression changed.
He held back his panic and asked, "Have you ever encountered such a case?" ”
"Yes, the emperor also died early due to a malignant tumor, but his tumor was in the back to the waist." The court physician replied cautiously.
"How long did it take for the emperor to pass away?"
"Eight months."
"So, please do your best to help my dad heal." Yan Jinxuan said quietly.
"It's nature." The imperial doctor hurriedly said, and immediately prescribed medicine to Yan Yunpei.
Yan Jinxuan turned to look at Yan Yunpei, who was enduring the pain, and his eyes turned red unconsciously.
After sending off the imperial physician, Yan Jinxuan called Feng Zixi and solemnly instructed: "Go to all parts of the country to find doctors who can treat malignant tumors for me, please come as many as you want." ”
"Yes."
Feng Zixi took five people from the capital early the next morning to find a good doctor. (To be continued.) )
