"Shao Bao also knows that we are just doctors, even if we are the best doctors in the country, we are not immortals." Imperial Physician Dong immediately retorted.

Zhang Xiaowu was so choked that he couldn't say anything to refute it, took a few heavy breaths, and glanced at Imperial Physician Dong fiercely, but even if he killed Imperial Physician Dong, the emperor still couldn't wake up for the time being, he could only ask: "Then when will Your Majesty's soul escape be cured?" Is it written in ancient books? ”

Imperial Physician Dong said: "It is said in ancient books that the boy has been demented for ten years, and during this period, he can eat, drink, and urinate, and the symptoms are the same as those of His Majesty." One day ten years later, the son of Jinan Mansion suddenly came to his senses one day and reported that his wife had been killed. Then the government arrested the gangsters and beheaded them for public display, and after watching the gangsters all die on the court, he laughed three times, and then fell to the ground and died. As for how he woke up, there is no record in the book, as if he woke up suddenly. So the only thing we can do now is to make sure that Your Majesty is healthy and wait for him to slowly wake up in the future. ”

Everyone was silent for a long time, only the voice of Tang Guifei sobbing and tears, everyone didn't dare to speak, and finally Zhang Xiaowu said: "Lord Lu, call Kaicheng Bobian to learn, he is the new left minister, and this matter must be negotiated with him." ”

"Okay." Lu Baiting turned around and ordered someone to immediately pass on the side to the palace.

Zhang Xiaowu said again: "Your Majesty's body is like this, sooner or later everyone will know about it, and I am worried that in the future, someone will slander us for manipulating Your Majesty to control the imperial court." Therefore, I propose that we should recruit as many people as possible to establish an institution to assist Your Majesty in governing the country, and I propose that this body be called the Central Office, with one Central Commander and six Central Governors, for a total of seven people. During the period when His Majesty has not yet awakened, the Central Council will make a decision in His Majesty's place. ”

The hearts of the people beat violently, isn't this central government an institution above ten thousand people under one person? If His Majesty can't wake up in the future, then the function of the Central Mansion is actually to act on behalf of the emperor.

Zhang Xiaowu was not pretentious and humble, and said: "The central order of the Central Mansion is appointed by me, and the remaining six people are Bian Wen on the left, Xiang Rui on the right, Lu Baiting, the imperial envoy, Ye Xiangdong, the generalissimo, Shi Yong, the secretary of the military department, and Shi Chong, the secretary of the household department. What do you think? ”

Except for Tang Guifei and Lu Baiting, the rest of the people at the scene were Wu Song, Ruan Qingwen, Guan Xiang and others, so naturally they would not object.

And Lu Baiting was already full of surprise, and couldn't help but tremble, he was actually selected into the Central Mansion, which means that he will be in charge of national affairs in the future? This kind of surprise made him unbearable, and he looked at Zhang Xiaowu excitedly, but as a civil official, he needed to be modest and cautious, and hurriedly said: "How can you be so responsible?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "I said that if you can take it, you can take it, and there is no one in the world who is more suitable than you." Dushan Bo is seriously ill in Jiangnan, Shi Chong has just served as the head of the household department and is not able to convince the public, Xiang Rui has been opposed by the scholars because of the implementation of the tax law reform, and the holy decree of Bian Wen appointing the left minister has not yet been promulgated, and he cannot convince the public, Shi Yong has long been confirmed to be a mediocre and incompetent person, so this central mansion will also need you to be busy alone in the future. If you don't do it, our empire won't do it. ”

Lu Baiting said excitedly: "In this way, then the lower official will never give up." ”

Zhang Xiaowu asked Lu Baiting to immediately invite Bian Wen, Xiang Rui, Shi Yong, Shi Chong and others into the palace to discuss state affairs, and personally awarded the appointment decree of these four people to them.

"Did you inform them of the existence of the Nexus?" Lu Baiting asked.

"No, I'll let you know personally." Zhang Xiaowu said.

Lu Baiting immediately wrote the holy decree, and Tang Guifei took out the jade seal of the Son of Heaven and stamped it with a big seal, and before the ink was dry, Lu Baiting went out of the palace with the four holy decrees.

Zhang Xiaowu was silent for a while, and said, "I want to talk to Your Majesty alone, Guifei Niangniang, is it okay?" ”

Everyone is puzzled, the emperor is in a coma, can you still talk to him alone? Tang Guifei knew that they had a deep relationship, so she nodded and ordered everyone to retreat. When everyone else was not here and there was silence, Zhang Xiaowu sighed, looked at the emaciated Emperor Dade, and felt grief in his heart.

"Your Majesty, I am not an ambitious person, and I am not like a monopoly on power, but now this situation forces me to be a powerful minister above ten thousand people under one person." Zhang Xiaowu seemed to be explaining to Emperor Dade, but it was more like talking to himself, "Since ancient times, the prime ministers who have been in charge of the world have not had a good end without exception, and they were either hacked to death by his subordinates, or they were deposed and killed by the emperor. And the only ones who can end well are those national thieves who usurped power and established the country.

The establishment of the central government, in fact, I want to divide power, because I know too well the terrible power of this power, once someone is contaminated, it will no longer be able to give up. Your Majesty, the existence of the Central Mansion is to remind me that I cannot be a thief of the country, and I cannot usurp power and seize power. Your Majesty, you are my friend and my comrade-in-arms, you can rest assured, I will definitely cultivate Chenghua well and make him a famous monarch through the ages and an emperor of all countries. ”

Zhang Xiaowu shook himself to the ground, slowly got up and left, and turned to leave.

Emperor Dade's eyes blinked with his back, and soon returned to their original state, as if they had never moved.

Soon, the rest of the people who were designated as the governor of the Central Prefecture by Zhang Xiaowu also rushed over, including Bian Wen, Xiang Rui, Shi Yong, and Shi Chong. They followed Zhang Xiaowu to the Tai Hospital and saw the emperor with their own eyes, although Emperor Dade woke up, the whole person was dumbfounded, not like a normal person, more like a fool. Everyone was immediately crying bitterly by Emperor Dade's illness, especially Shi Chong, who was so crying that he couldn't stand up.

"Will Your Majesty still wake up?" Shi Chong choked.

Shi Yong said eagerly: "Hasn't Your Majesty always been very good? ”

Imperial Physician Dong said: "Your Majesty was almost killed by Li Canglan, how can there be anything good, it is already a great luck to survive." ”

Zhang Xiaowu asked, "Imperial Doctor Dong, is there no way at all?" There are so many famous doctors in the world, what if there is one who can help His Majesty recover as soon as possible? ”

Imperial Doctor Dong said: "Ordinary doctors can't cure Your Majesty, but-"

"But what?"

"But some strange doctors can do it, but if these people's prescriptions can't cure Your Majesty, who will bear the consequences?" Imperial Physician Dong said, "Your Majesty, this kind of symptom has not been encountered by our Imperial Doctor, so naturally it cannot be solved." And other doctors should also be rarely encountered, if they are treated, they will definitely give His Majesty all kinds of medicines, there is a good saying, it is three parts of poison, any doctor has two sides to the medicine, if it poisons His Majesty-"

Zhang Xiaowu said suddenly: "You mean, the hospital can treat it, but it's not even fifty percent sure." ”

Imperial Physician Dong smiled bitterly: "Don't say that it is fifty percent, even if it is half a certainty, anyone who treats the emperor's illness can only hold the attitude of a dead horse as a live horse doctor." ”
