Chapter 142: Talented people gather in the capital
Wang Yue and Zhu Houxi looked at each other, and the atmosphere was very solemn...... In fact, as for the cause of Zhu Houzhao's death, not to mention the two of them, even everyone in the world has doubts.
Suspicion is suspicion, speculation is speculation, and without tangible evidence, speculation alone will not solve the problem. But Liang Chu broke the matter, which is very different.
Liang Chu, as a second assistant, has been in the court for a long time, and he is also an important minister who can contact Zhu Houzhao, he said that the cause of Zhu Houzhao's death is strange, and he said it before his death, and the weight is naturally different.
Clearly, there may be a problem.
"Xiao Fugui, this is a notebook given to me by Elder Liang Ge, you can also come and take a look."
The two of them gathered under the lamp, head to head, reading carefully...... This note records the process of Liang Chu's dealings with Zhengde. Among them, in the tenth year of Zhengde, Zhu Houzhao made an edict to His Excellency, saying: "I bow to occasionally violate the peace, and I am temporarily exempted from the court." ”
Liang Chu also said later that in the past, the Son of Heaven mostly used illness as an excuse to avoid the early dynasty. Since then, the Son of Heaven has often been sick, and the courtiers should be burdened with heavy responsibilities......
Seeing this, Wang Yue verified a long-standing opinion...... The quality of the seeds of the old Zhu family is indeed not high, and Zhu Houzhao, as the only son of Xiaozong, has often been sick since he was a child.
Does that mean that it can be said that Zhu Houzhao died by himself and has nothing to do with Yang Tinghe?
The two monarchs and ministers continued to look down, and finally arrived at the most important Zhengde southern tour, in September of the fifteenth year of Zhengde, Bingyin, up to Qingjiangpu, on the boat fishing in the pond, the boat was drowned. Left and right are terrified, scrambling into the water and coming out, and they are unhesitating.
This is about Zhengde's illness after falling into the water, but the strange thing is that in the next scene, Lu Zhi, the imperial doctor who took care of Zhu Houzhao at that time, said that Zhu Houzhao "has a summer pulse in winter, and he is not cured by the law, and he is willing to set the crown prince to settle the country." ”
Interesting?
The imperial doctor, who is not a fart, actually suggested that he should be established.
Is he too bold?
Who the hell is this guy talking about?
The next step is to return to the capital...... It's even more interesting here, Zhu Houming was seriously ill, but he didn't go back to the palace directly, but went to Xuanfu, and led thousands of cavalry, escorted the prisoners, waved the flag, stretched for several miles, showed off his might, and returned to the capital.
The best thing is that Zhu Hou rode a horse according to his clothes, stood under the Zhengyang Gate, and read for a long time...... A terminally ill person, such a toss, after returning to Beijing, naturally can't afford to be sick.
But the emperor was obviously sick, and the Ministry of Rites arranged two big jobs for Zhu Houzhao one after another, one was the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, and the other was to go out to the suburbs to worship the sky, but Zhu Houzhao did not complete it, and he vomited blood...... Needless to say, Zhu Houzhao fell ill, he once sent someone to ask for the recruitment of famous folk doctors, but was blocked by Yang Tinghe, and after that, the Son of Heaven died, and Zhu Houyu entered Beijing from Anlu to take over the throne.
Wang Yue and Zhu Houxi are both smart people, and the two of them quickly reviewed the whole experience, and the two of them couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, as if they had taken a sauna.
If we want Yang Tinghe to murder Zhu Houzhao, poison him, or use medicine, this is absolutely impossible, after all, the Ming Dynasty is controlled inside and outside, and it is impenetrable.
Yang Tinghe wanted to start, but he didn't have a chance.
And for a super-bureaucrat who has been in the business for 50 years, it is too risky to do so.
Do you want to say that Yang Tinghe is innocent?
Obviously, it's not true.
There is a question here, how did Yang Tinghe kill Zhu Houzhao, and what clever method did he use?
First of all, any good strategy is to take advantage of the situation and push the boat with the current.
If the people of the Murong family did not have the heart of rebellion, Wang Meng's golden knife plan would not have worked.
Zhu Houzhao is not in good health and has the root cause of his illness, this is a fact.
After he fell into the water, the imperial physician immediately declared that the Son of Heaven was in critical condition and wanted to be appointed as a prince.
At this time, look back and see who Zhu Houzhao is? He is a man who dares to carry a sword and fight with the Tartars, and being strong and rebellious is Zhu Houzhao's biggest weakness.
And Yang Tinghe just grasped his weakness.
first publicized his illness very seriously, and Zhu Houzhao was unwilling to give in, so he naturally rode into the city, held a prisoner sacrifice ceremony, and ran outside the city to worship......
A seriously ill person, the most important thing is to recuperate, but the courtiers below keep making trouble for him and let him participate in large-scale events.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't hold on, but instead confirmed the rumor that the Son of Heaven was terminally ill.
After a few tosses, Zhu Houzhao, who only had half a life left, was more breathless than a dead man.
Next, as long as he uses the medicine cautiously and maintains the dragon body as an excuse, he can watch Zhu Houzhao walk into the ghost gate little by little......
Yang Tinghe once said to Zhu Houzhao: "This morning, the eunuch Wei Bin preached the holy will, saying that the suburbs have not been raised, and the sacred heart is deeply unsettled. When the ministers heard this, they thought that this was the thought, which was connected to the heavens, and the heavenly heart was touched, and the holy body should be calmed. It's not too late for a big gift. Looking forward to the emperor's strong diet and medicine, good conditioning, to comfort the heart of the Virgin, and to answer the hope of the world, the ministers are very fortunate. ”
Seeing this, Zhu Houxi was so angry that he pounded the table!
"This Yang Tinghe should be cut with a thousand cuts!"
Wang Yue also felt the same way, a sick person, still chasing the sacrificial thing, what do you remember about this, God will bless him, obviously he can't eat, and he also told him to eat more and take less medicine, and also told him to consider your mother's attitude and the thoughts of people in the world...... Isn't it true that in the face of the patient, don't you tell him not to think about anything, take medicine and recuperate, and wait for the body to recover!
Yang Tinghe!
Are you talking about people?
After reading this note of Liang Chu, combined with the understanding during this time, Wang Yue and Zhu Houxi have already figured out the real cause of Zhengde's death.
The emperor's health is not good, but it is just a premise, and the ministers around him are constantly looking for trouble, tossing and trouble, not letting him recuperate well, and also blocking the search for famous doctors for treatment. After tossing like this for several months, Zhu Houzhao died, looking at it this way, the body of this righteous son of heaven is still good!
"Killing people invisibly, without a trace, will cost the life of an emperor! High, that's so high! Zhu Houxi trembled all over, and his hands and feet were cold.
For the first time, he felt shuddering, it turned out that the Son of Heaven was so fragile!
Oh, yes!
As long as you are a person, no matter how high your position and how much power you have, there will always be weaknesses.
"If Liu Jin doesn't die, my imperial brother may not lose his life! At all times, you must have someone by your side who is absolutely trustworthy. Zhu Houxi raised his head and looked at Wang Yue.
The monarchs and ministers looked at each other, and in their eyes, thunderbolts and lightning rang more than 10,000 times, making Wang Yue a little dizzy.
"Your Majesty......"
Zhu Houxi waved his hand and didn't let Wang Yue continue.
"We are going to be kings and ministers for the rest of our lives." Zhu Houxi stood up and said slowly: "Let's deal with the funeral of Elder Liang Ge first!" By the way, before he died, he also begged me to open Enke and use more new people, after all, these people are different from old fritters, they are young and reliable! ”
Wang Yue nodded vigorously, he agreed with it all, it was indeed to speed up the metabolism and completely eliminate Yang Ting and the party from the imperial court!
……
"Brother Bohu!"
Tang Yin was pinching a stack of yellow paper to burn, when he heard someone calling, he looked back and saw a thin little old man walking over quickly.
"It's Brother Hengshan! Come here, follow me to burn some paper for Liang Xianggong! ”
Wen Zhengming was stunned for a moment, but he still stepped over and accompanied Tang Yin to burn paper together.
"Liang Xianggong is gone?"
"Hmmm! Before his old man died, he asked for Kaienke, and the scholars of the world were blessed. ”
When Wen Zhengming heard this, he was taken aback, and at this time, someone came again. Walking in front was a big fat man, followed by a young scholar.
"Yes, Lord Zhu!"
The person who came was Zhu Yunming!
Four talents, three came...... They are not young anymore, they looked at each other, Zhu Yunming laughed, "Neither of you has ever entered the ranks, such as today's Zi Jiaen, Da Kai Enke, it is your chance to show your skills!" Only I entered the company early, and I am not on the right path to Kejia, and this life is over. ”
Wen Zhengming hurriedly smiled bitterly, "I wish the adults misunderstood, I haven't even passed the Ying Tianxiang test, how can I participate in Enke!" ”
Zhu Yunming smiled again: "You are ......" He noticed Tang Yin and closed his mouth, but Tang Yin took the initiative to say: "I was implicated, Tang has harmed a lot of people in his life!" ”
Wen Zhengming hurriedly waved his hand, "Brother Bohu, if you say that again, I will just leave." A bosom friend is 10,000 times better than fame - of course, this fame is not dispensable...... If that's the case, I'm afraid I'm going to be able to take the exam! ”
Zhu Yunming smiled and said: "Brother Hengshan is humble, this time I will go to the Ministry of Officials to accept the evaluation, if I have the opportunity, I will talk to Lord Tianguan and ask him to be kind to the old man, so that you can also participate in Enke!" If you and Brother Bohu join hands in the ranking, it will be a great conversation! ”
