Chapter 228: The Last Suffering
"Dou Yi!" Wang Pu was suddenly annoyed, pointed to the civil official's nose and scolded him, "You took something to show the official, and you were angry with the official's dragon body, can you afford it!" ”
Estimating that Dou Yi didn't expect the emperor to suddenly spurt blood, he was stunned and at a loss, his face was pale and bloodless. Looking at it, he didn't want to pretend, I'm afraid he really didn't expect such a consequence. Suddenly, with a "plop", he fell to the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Weichen's crime deserves death!" ”
"Official, official......" The eunuch next to the throne was still calling softly and carefully.
Guo Shao stood in place and stared at him, only to feel that his palms were full of sweat! But the sound of the rain outside crackling on the palace room, the wind howling, and the cool breeze pouring in made people feel cold.
He didn't quite understand what was going on, because he didn't know what kind of faith it was. His Adam's apple squirmed, and he secretly took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. Xindao: It must have something to do with the eunuch Wang Zhong! Otherwise, why would Wang Zhong want to swallow the letter in front of the emperor and his ministers...... There must be a ghost in his heart!
Guo Shao had thought a lot, a lot beforehand; But I found out temporarily that there were not a lot of things I had overlooked. So much so that now I can't figure out the veins and lines of things at all.
I saw that the more than a dozen of the most powerful civil and military ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty present were all standing stupidly, and I am afraid that most of them were not much better than Guo Shao. Everyone doesn't necessarily know much about Guo Shao, and they can't imagine what will happen today.
Generally at such times, people's practice is to obey the rules and systems of the imperial court according to inertia; Because that way the risk is minimal! Just like in history, Zhao Kuangyin suddenly mutinied and crossed Chen Bridge, and the garrison did not let him pass, because he did not have a public certificate, and he could not be released according to the law. Afterwards, Zhao Kuangyin thought that he was loyal to his duties, and instead gave him a commendation; Of course, if the mutiny failed, the Chenqiao garrison was even more rewarded.
"The Imperial Doctor is here, quickly." Wang Pu turned his head and saw the person and shouted.
Everyone got out of the way and watched the imperial doctor go over for treatment. Everyone is the emperor's courtiers, and the emperor is in danger, so it is naturally within his duty to try to save the emperor.
Guo Shao was nervous, thought hard for a long time, gradually recovered from the surprise, and finally got rid of the disadvantage of having a blank mind. Some impressions came to mind.
First, this fat white eunuch has seen it in times of trouble! At that time, he didn't deal with Cao Tai very well, and he should be the emperor's henchman!
Guo Shao contacted that the emperor was seriously ill and that Wang Zhong was still a person who could speak in front of the emperor today, and even more concluded that this eunuch named Wang Zhong was the emperor's trusted confidant.
Second, Dou Yi, a civil official, is very likely to have taken refuge in Zhao Kuangyin. Guo Shao remembered that when he led the army to Shouzhou during the Huainan Campaign, he saw Dou Yi and Zhao Pu walking together on the road...... He really forgot about these little things, especially at that time, he didn't even have a deep impression of Zhao Pu, and he didn't pay attention to Dou Yi.
Today this person did something crucial: he submitted a secret letter whose contents were unknown. Guo Shao desperately thought about his impressions, and then remembered the little things that had passed by time...... It's a coincidence that I can remember such an accidental side. At that time, Guo Shaobu's army crossed a stone arch bridge, and on a whim, in order to prevent the "resonance phenomenon" from collapsing the bridge, he ordered all the troops to disrupt the pace of the marching army and cross the bridge freely. At that time, he met Dou Yi and Zhao Pu, and Dou Yi saw such a lineup of the elite team of the forbidden army, and his face was disdainful; Later, I also exchanged a few pleasantries.
It was impossible to communicate these things in ancient times, so occasionally thinking of this kind of theory, Guo Shao had an additional impression. That's when I remember it so clearly.
In a short period of time, at this time, the imperial doctor walked from the entrance of the palace to the throne, and at this moment, Guo Shao pondered and analyzed a series of information. At this moment, he had to boldly speculate about what was happening in front of him:
The eunuch Wang Zhong was the inner servant of the emperor's cronies, but he betrayed Chai Rong and suspected of defecting to the queen (so that it was worthy of Zhao Kuangyin's action and Wang Zhong's betrayal), and the handle of betrayal fell into the hands of Zhao Kuangyin and his colleagues; Zhao Kuangyin instructed Dou Yi to submit the credentials. The emperor found out that his cronies around him had betrayed him, and he vomited blood!
This inference is lacking in several places. But through clues, it is precisely this speculation that explains what is seen in front of you.
…… The imperial doctor treated him and kept wiping his sweat. Chai Rong still had his eyes open, not unconscious because of this, but his face became more ugly. The eunuch next to him wanted to take the bloodstained letter in his hand, but saw Chai Rong pointing to the bag in his arms.
The eunuch understood, hurriedly folded it, and gently put it in the pocket inside his robe.
Wang Pu, Li Gu and the others below gently pushed Wang Pu, Wang Pu understood, carefully approached the throne, and stood below to watch.
"Let Your Majesty find a place to lie down first, you can't toss anymore." The imperial doctor wiped his sweat, "I have to send someone to call Lao Chen's colleagues as well, Lao Chen is a little panicked alone......
The strong eunuch asked, "Your Majesty, why don't you disperse the court first?" Let the slave family carry you to the Banzai Hall to raise. ”
"No!" Chai Rong actually spoke. The ministers immediately held their breath and waited attentively.
Chai Rong closed his eyes and gasped heavily, as if he was groaning, and said weakly: "The decree ......"
As if they wanted to listen to the posthumous photo, everyone stepped forward one after another, approached the throne, and listened carefully with a hundred of them.
Chai Rong's voice said intermittently: "I, I will live in the Jinxiang Palace...... Summoned...... Qiao Kang, land rail ......"
Guo Shao probably heard the content when he stood below, and Chai Rong's reaction was also in line with his inference: The emperor is unwilling to return to the harem again, and wants to stay here, is he more wary of the harem? What is the content of the letter, so that Chai Rong can prevent it from being like this!
"Who is Qiao Kang, Lu Rail?" The eunuch turned back and asked the ministers, "The official family wants to see these two people." ”
The civil officials looked at each other, and at this moment Zhang Yongde said: "It seems to be the commander of the third class in the east." ”
Chai Rong nodded, and said with a dull gaze: "Sheng Qiao Kang...... Commander of the Eastern Pandu, come to me! "Then close your eyes and recuperate.
The eunuch hurriedly called someone to go. The people around him did not dare to come out.
After a while, Chai Rong opened his eyes and said, "Wang Pu...... Privy Counsellor. ”
Wang Pu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said on the spot: "The minister's decree." ”
At this moment, four or five more imperial doctors came into the temple gate. Chai Rong closed his eyes, slowly raised his trembling hand and waved it gently. The eunuch hurriedly asked carefully, "Official, do you mean the scattered dynasty?" ”
Chai Rong nodded slightly.
The eunuch stood up and said, "Princess, the official family is unwell, so they dispersed first; The ministers of the Privy Council and the Government Hall first stayed in the palace office. If there is something to summon the generals and ministers, the Privy Council and the Government Council will send ministers to the Tung Wah Gate to receive you...... Official, the slave family said what it meant for you, right? ”
Chai Rong suddenly spoke again: "Wang Pu...... Wei Renpu...... Guo Shao...... Zan Jurun. ”
The eunuch hurriedly said, "The prince, please stay." General Guo, the official family ordered you to immediately prepare to leave Beijing to seek Dan; In addition, the provincial envoy Zan Jurun was sent as a deputy envoy. General Wanwang Guo lives up to His Majesty's trust. ”
Guo Shaobai said: "The minister's decree is not resigned. ”
At this time, more than a dozen ministers knelt on the ground and bowed, "The ministers are retiring...... I look forward to the speedy recovery of His Majesty's dragon body. ”
When Guo Shao got up, he couldn't help but glance at Wang Zhong, who was still pressed to the ground. Wang Zhong found that Guo Shao was looking at him, and he also raised his head slightly, glaring at Guo Shao with frightened eyes.
Everyone silently withdrew from the main hall of the Jinxiang Palace, and when they reached the door, they saw that Dou Yi walking at the back with his head down. At this time, Zhao Kuangyin suddenly turned his head to look at Guo Shao unscrupulously.
Guo Shao felt his gaze, and also raised his head to look directly at the past, facing it calmly. The two walked slowly and looked at each other wordlessly. Guo Shao's face was stiff, and when he saw Zhao Kuangyin's black face, he couldn't see the mystery...... At this time, it seems that it is not to see anything, but to test the other party's confidence and compete with a kind of momentum. Zhao Kuangyin has a kind of pressure bearing, as if he can only look at you, not his domineering; But Guo Shao had already been out of the way, of course he was not afraid of him.
Some of the people around took a long breath completely ignoring their appearance, which was very obvious. These ministers with real power do not seem to be so calm when they encounter today's situation.
But Guo Shao and Zhao Kuangyin obviously didn't feel relieved. The showdown has just begun.
The rest of the people, mainly the generals, went out of the Donghua Gate with umbrellas, and each found a slave retinue to get into the carriage one after another, and it was raining, and almost everyone came by felt cart that could block the rain.
Luo Mengzi and others surrounded him and looked at Guo Shao with concern. When I looked up, I saw an umbrella outside the palace gate. Guo Shao said: "Go home first." "Then get into the back of the carriage. At this time, a war horse shook its head vigorously and shook off the rain on Guo Shao's body.
The guards outside collected their umbrellas, ignored the rain, turned over and got on their horses, and escorted Guo Shao out of the palace gate and towards Mahang Street.
Zuo You sat in the carriage all the time, and when the carriage started, he asked, "What happened in the palace?" ”
Guo Shao thought about it for a while, in this era, there are very few means of not being able to infuse and hanging his life, what decoction acupuncture and cupping to recuperate and recuperate, he still believes that he wants to first aid the patient and feels a little hanging. immediately said in a deep voice: "Dou Yi may have been instructed by Zhao Kuangyin and his party to give a secret letter to make the official family so angry that he vomited a lot of blood. I look at the situation, and it's hard to say whether I can survive a month and a half. ”
Zuo You hurriedly asked: "The official family ordered the lord to go out of Beijing to find Dan?" ”
Guo Shao nodded: "In this situation, the official family can't do anything, even if they are not afraid of death and take care of their own country, they want to live for a while." I couldn't hide from it, so I just answered. ”
"No, you can't." Zuo You groaned, "Now out of Beijing, I'm afraid it will ......."
Guo Shao remained silent, and said in his heart: I was stupid to go out of Beijing to find Dan; Chai Rong's disease may be in the internal organs, not as simple as a cold and heat stroke, can a Taoist priest cure it well?
According to the "number of lives", the emperor's illness can drag on for a while...... But a lot of different things happened here, Guo Shao saw that his lifespan was a little shorter than in the original history.
