Qianqing Palace, the Son of Heaven's Sleeping Palace, since the beginning of the ancestors, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty have lived here.

The emperor was ill, so naturally he would not go to the main hall, but went to Xinuan Pavilion.

The so-called warm pavilion is a small room separated from the big room. It is not the name of the palace, such as Yangxin Palace, Kunning Palace, and Qianqing Palace, all of which have East and West Warm Pavilions.

The Xinuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace is usually the place where the emperor summons his ministers, but today Longqing brought the prince here, which obviously means that what he wants to say to the prince today is not just between father and son.

The first people to go were the emperor, the two imperial doctors, and even the crown prince was temporarily left outside the warm pavilion to wait.

The little thing that happened between the emperor and the crown prince before, Gao Shishi didn't see it because he first went to the prince's honor guard behind the emperor's honor guard to wait, and now he took advantage of this moment to have an urgent exchange with the prince.

Hearing Zhu Yijun say with a suspicious face that the emperor seemed to be a little emotional just now, Gao pragmatic and sensitive found that Longqing's body might really be in big trouble.

The emperor fainted just now and woke up quickly, although it was probably just an accident in the eyes of outsiders, after all, many people have such a thing as "black eye dizziness", maybe the emperor is just a little more serious than ordinary people, and it is not a big deal.

But after all, Gao Pragmatic knew that Longqing in history died more than half a year later, and according to the normal situation, since he did not die violently, then at the time of "half a year ago", his body should indeed be about to enter the point of running out of oil.

Since the emperor himself kept this kind of thing secret, Gao Pragmatism, as an outsider, of course, could not get any definite evidence, and could only speculate through some clues.

These clues may not prove anything when they are viewed separately, but as long as they are linked together, they can reflect each other, and then they are inseparable.

The emperor's ill health is certain, the problem is only in the severity. So where to find clues about this matter?

First of all, the expressions of the eunuchs. When Gao Gong asked just now, Gao Cheng paid attention to the expressions of the three great eunuchs: Meng Chong looked frightened and at a loss, so it can be seen that he didn't know; Feng Bao's face was sad, but he didn't dare to look at people, he made a pragmatic judgment, he might have something in his heart, and he was afraid of revealing it, so he covered it up with sadness; Chen Hong's eyes dodged, and he wanted to speak and stopped, maybe he knew something, but he didn't want to say it, or he didn't dare to say it.

Gao Pragmatic was furious in his heart: Meng Chong, Meng Chong, you are really a waste! The three major internal ministers, your two deputies know the situation, but you don't know this palm print, what do you want!

At this moment, Gao Pragmatic even remembered the Huang Zhenshou in Datong, although he was far less than you Meng Chong, but he was a very discerning person, doing things properly and being an authentic person.

Gao pragmatic turned a thought in his heart: although Chen Ju is quietly helping himself, although he has been transferred to the prince's side, his qualifications are always not enough - at least next year's "big event" will definitely not be enough, if you want to ascend to the sky to take charge of the celebrant in one step, you will inevitably be suspected of pulling out seedlings. Or...... The idea of transferring Huang Mengyu back to Beijing, stuffing him into the celebrant supervisor, and waiting for next year's "unspeakable change" to push him up?

As soon as this idea appeared, he couldn't stop it, and Gao Pragmatic decided to discuss it with the third uncle and the teacher when he went back tonight.

In addition to the eunuchs, one of the clues that should be paid attention to is the looks of the imperial doctors. Although the old lady who answered before today looked like a human spirit, it was not impossible to analyze and analyze.

Gao Gong, a person who disdains to play tricks, may not care too much about the look of a doctor, but Gao Yude, who was evaluated by Guo Pu as "too calculating", will not let go of this detail. He closed his eyes and recalled, and immediately found that when the old lady answered Gao Gong's inquiry, he didn't dare to say what the emperor's condition was from beginning to end, but only said something ambiguous and plausible like "more like" and "usually".

There is a problem, there is definitely a problem!

The emperor's illness is probably not light, but those who know should be controlled within a small range.

At present, it is certain that Meng Chong did not know, while Feng Bao and Chen Hong knew.

No wonder Chen Hong was in a hurry to move closer to the high arch before, originally thinking that he was only because Yin Shidan and Sanbo did not deal with each other, and he felt that it was a little difficult to be a man in it, so he joined the Gao Party camp again. But now it seems that the problem is not so simple.

It is more likely that Chen Hong knew that the emperor's condition was already very serious, and his earliest favor was obtained by relying on his previous favor to the emperor when he was the imperial supervisor's palm seal, such as making those Spring Palace porcelain, instigating the emperor to buy jewelry, etc.

In other words, the foundation of his status is Longqing's favor, and the reason why Gao Gong is willing to help him is because this person will only work those utensils and trails to invite pets, and he doesn't necessarily like to play power.

So as soon as the emperor fell ill, and the illness was serious, Chen Hong immediately panicked, and hurriedly repaired with Gao Gong, and even did not hesitate to play a "change of face", as soon as the front foot picked up Yin Shidan, he immediately sold him when he turned his back.

However, there is still a question here, Gao Shishi couldn't understand it for a while, that is, since Chen Hong was afraid, why didn't he hurry up to tell Gao Gong?

You must know that Meng Chong's waste palm print has not even been able to grasp such an important matter, it is obviously extremely incompetent, as long as Chen Hong comes to inform, Gao Gong will inevitably be angry with Meng Chong's incompetence, and if he can't keep it, he will make up his mind to replace Meng Chong. Meng Chong fell down, and Gao Gong couldn't use Feng Bao, normally speaking, wouldn't it be his turn Chen Hong?

Chen Hong shouldn't have thought of this truth...... So why didn't he come and snitch?

Gao Pragmatic dealt with the prince Zhu Yijun's inquiry - the prince's action of lifting the sedan curtain for the emperor just now was actually taught by Gao Pragmatic, the source was that the secretary of later generations opened the door to the leader, and the sentence "The prince is also a son" was also taught by Gao Pragmatic, born in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Jia Xu taught Cao Pi not to compare literary talents with Cao Zhi, but only to compare "filial piety" - so now the prince continues to consult Gao Pragmatic.

In fact, Zhu Yijun did not do this to compete for the prince, after all, the position of the prince of the Ming Dynasty has always been as stable as Mount Tai, as long as you are not dead, it will be your turn to be you, which is actually an additional benefit brought by the extremely strong civil official group.

Zhu Yijun did this, most of the reason is that he really wants to be filial to his father, because since he studied carefully, he can't find a better emperor than his father to his eldest son after reading all the history books, even if Emperor Taizu of this dynasty is not good to Prince Yiwen (Zhu Biao), I'm afraid it is not so good. So Zhu Yijun really wants to repay the favor.

In addition, there is a small reason, that Zhu Yijun also knows that "pure filial piety" is an excellent reputation, whether it is for Renchen or Renjun, it is a great plus. Although Zhu Yijun is young, after all, he has read a lot of books, and he has such an absolute pragmatic companion as Gao Pragmatism by his side, so of course he will be affected to some extent.

Both of them had something in their hearts, but they didn't pause, and quickly exchanged opinions on the question of "how to face their father later", not at all like two ten-year-old boys.

At this moment, the two imperial doctors came out of the Xinuan Pavilion with serious faces, and Chen Hong, who was one step ahead of them, said loudly: "Your Majesty's dictation: His Royal Highness Prince Xuan is here." ”
