Chapter Seventy-Four: Longqing Dies

"The emperor is critically ill?" After taking the letter and looking at it, Xiong Dabiao couldn't help but change his face, frowned and said: "Before leaving Beijing, my brother went to see the emperor, although he was a little sick, but his body was still quite strong, how could he be critically ill?" ”

Seeing Xiong Dabiao's expression, Shen Chongming knew that this brave man had never cared about Emperor Longqing's affairs, and he was afraid that even the officialdom in the capital knew that the emperor was obsessed with women.

"Alas, since it's an urgent letter sent by the teacher, there must be nothing wrong." Shen Chongming's brows were furrowed, firstly, he was concerned about Emperor Longqing's physical condition, and secondly, he was also worried that the situation between the DPRK and China would change the direction of the wind again with this major event.

Although Xiong Dabiao rarely cared about the government and politics, he knew some of the things in his heart, and nodded when he heard the words: "Since this is the case, then it is better to return to the capital as soon as possible according to the instructions of Lord Gao." ”

Emperor Longqing nodded, and then ordered someone to call Wang Zhen and Brother Erdan. said bluntly: "If there is something in the capital, this official must return immediately, and the two of you will be fully responsible for the affairs here." One is to step up the search for the fleeing rebel leaders, and the other is to keep these tens of thousands of troops firmly in their hands, without their own generals, even if they are holy decrees, they can't listen to them, understand? ”

Looking at Shen Chongming's expression, Wang Zhen and Brother Erdan immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. However, Shen Chongming didn't say anything, and the two of them didn't want to ask too much.

"My lord, you can rest assured, this group of people and horses must be firmly in control. If someone calls in another name, the lower official will kill him! Wang Zhen said viciously, he absolutely trusted Shen Chongming. Adults are dedicated to the country, and it is impossible to use a team of people to do something rebellious, all you can do is to clean up those who have bad intentions!

Shen Chongming nodded, naturally he could trust the two of them. "In this case, then the official will return to the capital, you explain to Wang Chonggu, let him be careful during this time, maybe someone will pay attention to him."

After carefully instructing, Shen Chongming took himself and Xiong Dabiao's two sets of guards, and directly beat his horse and headed towards the east. I was worried in my heart, for fear that something would really happen to Emperor Longqing.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, Feng Bao asks to see you." Just when Li Guifei's face was full of anxiety, a little father-in-law walked in with small steps.

"Hurry up, please." Concubine Li hurriedly said that this time Feng Bao entered the palace to visit, to be exact, she sent someone to quietly invite her.

"Slave Feng Bao, meet the noble concubine." Feng Bao walked in and knelt on the ground respectfully and bowed.

"Feng Qing's family, hurry up and be polite." Retreating left and right, Li Guifei's face was full of kindness, and the next thing would depend on Feng Bao, so naturally she was more polite to him.

Feng Bao, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, and when he heard that Li Guifei was looking for him, he knew what he was for. "Thank you, mother."

"Feng Qing's family, presumably you have also heard about the emperor's illness, right?" Her eyes were red, although it was not the emperor's illness that Feng Bao was invited to come this time, but Li Guifei still inevitably cried when she mentioned this matter.

It has been ten days since Emperor Longqing was bedridden, and dozens of holy hands from the Tai Hospital have treated him day and night without the slightest improvement, although everyone dare not say, but in the end, they have already had a plan in their hearts about what the result will be.

Feng Bao also looked gloomy. Since the emperor fell ill, the gang of people in the outer court have been waiting outside the emperor's bedroom day and night, and they have wanted to visit the emperor several times, but they have been rejected by Gao Gong, who controls the power. Therefore, many things in the meantime are hearsay, and I am not sure whether they are or not. However, one thing is certain, that is, the current emperor is already terminally ill, otherwise it would be impossible to let Gao Gong do such nonsense.

"Niangniang, the slaves and maids have heard about it, but the high arch is too hateful, and the slaves and maids are not allowed to visit the emperor, and they also ask the maids to be the masters of the slaves and maids." Feng Bao cried, the tears were more or less sincere, after all, he accompanied Emperor Longqing when he was a child, and the relationship of these decades was not in vain.

Speaking of Gao Gong, Li Guifei's expression was even darker, and it was precisely because Gao Gong had some unclear attitude that Feng Bao was invited to come this time.

"Feng Qing's family, you are the most loyal person around the emperor, so the palace is not hidden. I won't tell you, the emperor ...... I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape again. Speaking of this, Li Guifei couldn't help but whimper.

Although she is named a concubine, she has always lived a life that is the envy of women all over the world. But Li Guifei is also a woman after all, and she is middle-aged and widowed, which is also a great blow to her. Maybe in the next few decades, I can only survive alone and lonely, and there is no man who will care for me all the time.

"Niangniang, the emperor's son Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will definitely be safe and sound." Feng Bao hurriedly said.

"I hope so." Wiping her tears, Concubine Li said: "Feng Qing's family, the emperor has been on the throne for many years, although the third prince has been appointed as the crown prince, but the emperor is young, I am afraid that it is a big country, and the foreign ministers may not agree to let him inherit the throne." What this palace is worried about now is that once someone stands up and makes trouble at this time, he is afraid that he will cause chaos in the world. ”

Secretly said that he finally got to the point, Feng Bao said without thinking: "Niangniang, since ancient times, the crown prince has been established in order to inherit the throne. Although the crown prince is young now, the emperor has always praised him for his benevolence and filial piety, and he will be a generation of masters one day. If anyone dares to stop the crown prince from ascending the throne, it is a great rebellion! ”

Feng Bao's resolute attitude made Li Guifei breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that he supported him. "Feng Qing's family is worthy of being the emperor's most trusted person, if there are more people like you among the foreign ministers, then this Ming country will be as stable as Mount Tai."

Speaking of this, Concubine Li couldn't help but pause, looked at Feng Bao silently, and had to continue: "But now the attitude of these courtiers is still unclear, and the palace has no bottom in his heart. Feng Qing's family, you have been in charge of Dongchang for many years, and you are also very clear about these things, and this palace hopes that you can help this palace and jointly replace the emperor to stabilize this Ming dynasty. ”

Concubine Li's words were already very clear, Feng Bao didn't hide it, thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, Niangniang, this matter is difficult to say, but it is easy to say." If the emperor is ...... The emperor can specify that the throne will be passed on to the crown prince, and the ministers of the court and the central government naturally have nothing to say. If you don't have time, then you can only think of other ways. However, for such a big matter, it is impossible for the ministers of the DPRK and China to twist into a rope, and as long as you handle it properly, this throne will still belong to the prince. ”

Concubine Li Guifei was also anxious and distracted, but after listening to Feng Bao's words, her heart was also a lot more stable. is also said that although his son is not the eldest son of the emperor, the position of the crown prince was established by the emperor at a great court meeting, no matter how suspicious others are, they don't want to easily take away the throne of the emperor.

"Gao Ge Lao, Master Zhang, summoned by the emperor." Just as Gao Gong was waiting outside the palace of Emperor Longqing with a sad face, Chen Hong, whose eyes were bloodshot, walked over quickly and said.

"The emperor is awake?!" Gao Gong couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised, and without waiting for Chen Hong to answer, he threw off his stride and walked in.

On the sickbed, Emperor Longqing, whose complexion was gray and black, lay there quietly, his slightly undulating chest told everyone that he was still the only master of this world.

"The emperor's ......" just said two words, Gao Gong's tears burst out of his eyes, vaguely remembering the first time he saw the emperor when he was ordered by the emperor to teach in Yuwang's mansion, although the emperor was silent at that time, and he was cautious, but he was still a heroic and upright young man. It's just that I never thought that the years went by, and it became what it is today.

"Well... Division. Emperor Longqing's voice was extremely low, and if it weren't for Gao Gong kneeling beside the bed, he wouldn't have heard it at all.

Looking at his trembling outstretched palm, Gao Gong could no longer care about etiquette, and took the initiative to reach forward and hold it tightly.

"The emperor, the queen mother, Concubine Li and the crown prince, as well as several princes and princesses are here." Chen Hong said in his ear. He knew in his heart that he had shouted people so completely, and the emperor was going to explain the future.

As soon as the daughter-in-law and children arrived, they heard a whimper. In fact, everyone knows in their hearts what the emperor summoned at this time.

"Prince, you come." Holding Gao Gong's hand, Emperor Longqing had some strength in a trance, and his words became clearer.

Hearing this, Emperor Longqing called the crown prince, and Concubine Li, who was wiping her tears, hurriedly pushed her son who was kneeling beside her. The little prince Zhu Yijun also reacted quickly, crawled to the side of the bed with a roll, and cried with tears in his eyes: "Father, the son is here." ”

"Teacher, the prince and Jiang Shan I will entrust it to you. I hope that the teacher can be like me, and he will assist the prince and make the ancestral foundation prosperous. Emperor Longqing said tightly holding his arched hand, his originally dull eyes were full of hope at this moment.

"Your Majesty ......" Gao Gong's tears poured out, and a thousand words gathered in his heart, but in the end they turned into a firm and powerful nod.

"Zhang Aiqing and Shen Aiqing are both talents of the Pillar Country, and I hope that the teacher will cultivate more to ensure that my Ming Dynasty will be eternal forever." After talking too much, Emperor Longqing's face actually had a bit of brilliance.

However, the heart of Gao Gong, who was close at hand, was cold, and when he returned to the light, the emperor was afraid that he would not be able to do it.

"Teacher, I'll leave everything to you." A smile suddenly bloomed on Emperor Longqing's face, and he knew in his heart that with his high arch of life, he would definitely fulfill his entrustment.

Gao Gong nodded, looked back at Empress Chen and Concubine Li who were crying in tears, and got up and got out of the way. At this time, it is not just national events that are most important.

After a while, a heart-rending cry suddenly sounded behind him. Gao Gong's hands shook and he couldn't help but close his eyes. Then came the sound of pain that resounded through the dormitory.

On the fourth day of the first month of the sixth year of Longqing, Emperor Zhu Zaiyuan, who had been on the throne for six years, died, and died at the age of six at the age Chinese New Year's Eve of six. Chapter Seventy-Four: Longqing Dies
