Chapter 283: Forcing the Palace, Stroke
The imperial doctor soon arrived, and there was more than one, cutting the pulse of Ye Nianchen, who was already unconscious, in turn.
The emperor's mind is not difficult to guess, so it is naturally to prevent the crown prince Li from playing any tricks, after all, without personally determining Ye Nianchen's situation, it is impossible for anyone to believe it easily.
However, the unanimous conclusion of the last few imperial doctors made the emperor completely relieved, and they all determined Ye Nianchen's current symptoms as the prince had just said, and there was no solution to this poison.
In this way, Ye Nianchen is actually equivalent to a living dead with a hanging breath.
"Does my father believe what his son said now?" Li Zhi's gaze finally moved away from Ye Nianchen, and turned to look at the emperor: "Please also ask my father to raise his noble hand and end the matter here." From now on, Erchen will take good care of Nianchen, and will also explain and explain to the southern Xinjiang side on his own, and will definitely not let Lord Liu have undue dissent towards the court because of this. ”
"The prince can make such a decision, I am very relieved!" Seeing this, the emperor naturally no longer continued to pursue the prince, even if he was dissatisfied with this son, but it was not wise to rush to save at this moment, everything was still waiting to wait for the future to see and say: "The matter is over, I will not pursue anyone again, you are also tired, if there is nothing else, take her down first!" ”
As if nothing had happened, the emperor said lightly, and at the same time, he also showed his so-called "generosity and benevolence" as a matter of course.
But at this moment, a little imperial doctor stumbled all the way and ran in, shouting loudly: "Your Majesty, it's not good." The second prince led his soldiers and horses from Anwumen to the palace, and he will be here soon! ”
"What?" The Emperor was so shocked that he couldn't believe his ears.
"Your Majesty, hurry up, the second prince has rebelled, a lot of soldiers and horses are coming here, and the palace guards can't resist it at all, I'm afraid it won't be long before they come here!" The little imperial doctor rolled down directly and repeated Li Yu's rebellion against the palace again.
At this moment, everyone in the palace was shocked. And quickly. The murderous roar outside the palace gradually became clear, and it came to Zhengyang Palace from time to time.
"It's the other way around, it's the other way around! Second, second, what is this going to do! The emperor was so angry that he scolded: "This bastard, this rebel! ”
"Qi Qi Emperor, the second prince broke into the palace with people and horses, and insisted that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wanted to be unfavorable to the emperor. To murder the emperor. The emperor is in danger at the moment. In the name of Qingjun's side and protecting the holy car, they have already entered the Middle Palace! ”
Soon, the commander of the Praetorian Guard also rushed over to report the sudden crisis truthfully: "Your Majesty, the number of forbidden troops in the hands of your subordinates is far less than that of the second prince. In addition, they have obviously prepared for a long time and have been planning for a long time, so they can't communicate at all if they kill people when they see them. The subordinates are incompetent, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist for too long, and I ask the emperor to make a quick decision and ask for reinforcements to escort him! ”
"How can this be justified, how can this be justified! I'm very good, where is the danger, the prince is here with dignity, nothing has been done to me, how can I do something unfavorable! It's clear that the rebel wants to force the palace to rebel, this bastard, he obviously wants to sit on this royal chair directly! ”
The emperor was so angry that he almost turned his back on it, and with a flower in front of him, he never expected that the second prince, whom he had always loved, would quietly do such a big rebellion in the end, and he couldn't swallow or get out of that breath, and he fainted on the spot.
"Your Majesty, beware of the dragon body!" The chief eunuch was quick with his eyes and hands, and he stepped forward to support the emperor who was almost fallen, and he was so anxious that he couldn't do it.
For a while, there was chaos in Zhengyang Palace, and everyone was so scared that they didn't know what to do.
The emperor's body is quite tough, but he has occasionally felt unwell because of the weather recently, but the imperial doctors have diagnosed and treated them, and they all said that there is no big problem, it is nothing more than more rest and more conditioning.
And today, the emperor fainted directly without taking a breath, which clearly made the second prince Li Yu angry!
Forcing the palace to rebel, Li Yu is going to take the throne of his father, which has been the most unacceptable thing throughout the ages, plus the emperor has always loved the second prince very much, and it is not difficult to understand that the emperor is angry like this.
"Shut up, all quiet down Hongu! Whoever dares to shout and disturb people's hearts again, this palace will behead him first! At this moment, the crown prince Li Zhi shouted, and immediately shocked those minions who had frightened the master's heart.
"The prince forgives his sins!"
The palace people hurriedly responded one by one, where did they dare to shout indiscriminately, and stood there one by one waiting for the prince's orders.
"What are you guys doing standing there stupidly, why don't you hurry up and help the emperor to the couch and hide, so that you can treat the emperor for treatment!" Li Zhi raised his hand and waved it, signaling the imperial doctors to hurry up and do what they should do.
Everyone was scared stupid, seeing that the emperor had fainted, he stayed there, and no one went to give first aid.
As soon as these words came out, the chief eunuch and others also reacted, and immediately led someone to carry the emperor to the side of the couch, and let the imperial doctor start the diagnosis and treatment according to the prince's arrangement.
At the same time, some of the ministers who were in the palace also hurried to Zhengyang Palace, anxiously asking about the emperor's physical condition at the moment and the situation in the palace at the moment.
Li Zhi didn't have so much effort to explain to these nagging courtiers, but he simply explained the situation in three or two sentences, signaling everyone to settle down, and those who are willing to escort here will stay quietly, and if they are unwilling, they will retreat now, don't mess up people's hearts here, but it will be a bad thing.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor has become like this now, and the thieves outside may come in at any time, and please ask the prince to sit in Zhengyang Palace, I am willing to listen to the prince's orders, so as not to mess up the backbone!"
General Chen, the commander of the forbidden army, immediately saluted Li and asked him to command and sit in the formation, otherwise, the thieves outside had not yet come in, and this head would be messed up by itself.
General Chen is neither the person of the crown prince nor the person of the second prince, but the Chen family has always been loyal to the court and the royal family.
And the emperor's physical condition is obviously not conducive to dealing with such an urgent crisis, but fortunately, the prince has always been calm and wise. At this moment, it is only appropriate to exercise the power of the Son of Heaven by his emergency response.
When the other old ministers heard this, they naturally responded one by one, not to mention that when they were in danger, it was impossible for them to abandon the lord and flee from any aspect, even if there were really a few people who were afraid and wanted to leave, but there was nowhere to go.
You must know that the rebels outside who are forcing the palace are said to have killed the red-eyed, are washing the palace in blood, and will kill people when they see them, and they don't care who you are! This will run around is nothing more than a dead end, it is better to follow in Zhengyang Palace, at least relatively speaking, this place is definitely the safest place in the palace at the moment.
Counterinsurgency and rebellion. They can't help at all. The prince is right, at this moment, people's hearts are confused, and their hands and feet are already the best help to the prince.
Seeing this, Li Zhi naturally did not refuse, as the crown prince. He already had that right. Not to mention that now the emperor has fainted. The situation is unknown.
"General Chen, now that the palace is in danger, the palace has just made an emergency fireworks launch. If nothing else, the guard battalion outside the city and the nearest garrison should arrive in the quickest possible time. Therefore, now the forbidden army in the palace needs to go all out and delay as much time as possible for the reinforcements to arrive! ”
Li Zhi immediately instructed the commander of the Praetorian Guard: "In addition to the Praetorian Army, all the guards in the palace and even the inner prison will be managed by you, and the protection will be arranged in a unified manner, and the strength will be concentrated to protect the guard!" ”
"Prince, even if the guard battalion outside the city and the nearest garrison arrive at least half an hour as soon as possible, if there is any resistance on the way, I am afraid it will take even longer. And even if my forbidden army adds all the people in the palace who can fight, there is still a lot of difference between the number of the second prince's rebel army, but I am afraid that there will be no way to hold out until the reinforcements arrive! ”
General Chen didn't have any scruples at the moment, and told the truth one by one.
"Ouch, what can I do?"
"Yes, if it goes on like this, by the time the reinforcements arrive, those thieves will already attack and threaten the Son of Heaven to do whatever he wants, and then it will be too late!"
Many courtiers immediately began to discuss anxiously, and their worries were palpable.
Seeing this, Li Zhi waved his hand, directly interrupted everyone's whispered discussion, and said directly to everyone: "Don't panic, this palace has its own way, now I just need General Chen to act according to the arrangement of this palace!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly stopped squeaking, and General Chen firmly said: "The prince only gives the order, and the general promises to fully cooperate, and there will be no objections!" ”
"Good! Lin Qing, you will now go with General Chen to redeploy the palace guards, guards and East Palace manpower, focusing on taking the initiative to set up ambushes in front of the Lanling Gate, Weiliao Hall and Zhengyang Palace, and scatter the firearms army in the East Palace to three places, with archers, there will definitely be unexpected results! ”
Li Zhi's face was solemn, and he immediately ordered: "Go now, keep the news transmitted and unimpeded at any time, concentrate all your forces on one point, and make every effort to protect Zhengyang Palace and protect Sheng'an!" As for the variables that may be there in the middle, the palace has its own arrangements, so don't worry about it! ”
"The prince is wise, we will definitely kill the enemy with all our strength and protect St. Ann!"
When General Chen and the others heard this, their morale was immediately boosted, and they immediately received orders to retreat and act according to orders.
And those who have no power to restrain the chicken, but their minds are clear, and seeing that the prince's arrangement is reasonable, favorable and feasible, they are also a little more settled.
For a while, the sound of fighting in the palace became more and more intense, and the strong smell of blood drifted in with the wind from time to time.
On the harem side, news soon came that the queen had known what was going on, and had already blocked the gate of the harem, and mobilized the harem to be ready to guard it at all times, and there would be no problems for the time being, so that the prince could deal with it with peace of mind and not have to be distracted.
In particular, it has to be mentioned that the person sent by the queen also said in front of the ministers that the queen already knew that the second prince led the palace to rebel for the Jiang family, and Concubine Jiang had also admitted that the queen had ordered someone to take care of Concubine Jiang.
In the harem, although the queen is quite low-key on weekdays, her wrist is also powerful enough, otherwise, how could the position of the main palace have been stable for so many years.
After arranging everything, Li Zhi didn't pay attention to anyone, and sat directly beside Ye Nianchen to guard her.
Let people bring a warm cloak, Li Zhi personally covered Ye Nianchen, and the tranquility in his eyes was different from any time.
"Your Royal Highness, the emperor's situation is quite bad, and there are some things that the imperial doctor said that you have to decide." The chief eunuch hurriedly walked over and took one of the imperial doctors to ask Li Zhi for instructions.
"Say!" Li Zhi held Ye Nianchen's hand, his eyes did not leave Ye Nianchen at all, and he simply responded.
The chief eunuch hurriedly asked the imperial doctor to explain himself, and he couldn't explain this aspect of the matter at once.
Seeing this, the imperial doctor didn't dare to hide it, and said in public: "Prince Qiqi, the emperor is angry and angry, so he suddenly fainted, it was not a big problem, but Weichen and others found that the emperor's blood was high in these weather, so that the veins were blocked, and the spirit was ......."
"That's enough, you don't have to say so many useless words to this palace, you just say the result!" The crown prince interrupted the imperial doctor's words at the moment, turned his head and asked, "This palace asks you, how is the emperor doing now?" ”
"Your Royal Highness forgives you, Your Majesty is a stroke disease, and you have to apply an injection immediately to avoid the danger of your life, but it's just ......"
The imperial doctor's voice subconsciously became smaller, and his face turned a little pale: "It's just that after the injection, the emperor may, may have some sequelae." ”
"What's the aftermath?" Li Zhi couldn't help frowning and asked again.
And His Highness's ministers who could only stay aside and wait also pricked up their ears one by one and paid attention.
The imperial doctor didn't dare to hide it, so he had to answer: "If you have a stroke, the patient may lose the ability to act in the future, which is what we ordinary people call paralysis, and it will also affect the ability to speak, and the emperor may no longer be able to speak, or he may not be able to speak clearly." ”
As soon as these words came out, the ministers below were so anxious that they couldn't do it, the emperor was the honor of the Nine Martial Arts, what if it was like this.
After hearing this, Lieutenant Li did not rush to make a decision, but asked those ministers, "What do the secretaries think?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the courtiers who had been holding back for a long time opened their mouths one after another.
In fact, this kind of problem is really nothing to discuss, no matter how many sequelae there are, it is better than not having a life.
However, the problem is that if the prince directly asks the imperial doctors to save their lives, the emperor will definitely not be able to serve as the emperor in the future, and the prince can only ascend the throne to govern the dynasty, in which case it will be easy to leave a handle and be detrimental to the prince's reputation.
Those ministers were treacherous one by one, and they immediately thought of the stakes, and soon someone took the initiative to request, the top priority must be to save the emperor's dragon body, as for the others, maybe it will not be so serious, and at the same time, it can be treated.
As soon as one person spoke, everyone seconded the proposal, and Li Zhi did not need to take any adverse risks, so that the imperial doctors did not have to be restrained, but just settled down and survived. (To be continued.) )
