Chapter 442: The Deathbed
After Gao Gong heard the words of the little eunuch who came to pass the word. He rushed out in a hurry. The high arch at this time. There are many things on mind. One of the most important things is. He wanted to be the first to feel Long Qing in front of him. He understood. Then he will take advantage of a lot.
Therefore......
Although in the palace. Take care of etiquette. It's like a loud noise. Or stride and run is not allowed. But at this time, Gao Gong has long been unable to take care of these. All he wanted was to rush to Longqing's dormitory immediately. Gao Gong longed to have two more legs. Or simply grow a pair of wings. Able to let him fly over.
Although the little eunuch who came to report did not say anything. But Gao Gong also understood in his heart. Now Longqing is obviously no longer good. Let him pass. It's obvious that it's the one who is on the deathbed.
The high arch is now arrogant. But his mind is not confused. He knows. In this case. Long Qing would never summon him only because he was the first and auxiliary minister of the cabinet. Zhang Ju, who is the second assistant, will inevitably be present. Who else will there be. I can't think of a high arch. But he didn't care.
So now he is running wild in the palace. In order to be able to rush to the Qianqing Palace in front of Zhang Juzheng. And then. It's best that Long Qing can deal with him who arrived first. Something on its own. That's even better.
Although there are many rules in the palace. There are many limitations. But Gao Gong is, after all, the first and auxiliary ministers of the cabinet. In the past, it was very common for him to enter the palace to meet Long Qing. Therefore, all the people in the palace knew him.
And now. The galloping of the high arch did attract many passers-by. The attention of people who know him. But he had no intention of stopping him.
Don't get me wrong, though. It's not that these people know the high arch. Knowing that he is not easy to mess with, don't stop him. After all, this is the Imperial Palace. The nobility set by the ancestors. Not to mention that he is the first and auxiliary minister of the cabinet. It is the crown prince of the dynasty. Even the emperor had to abide by it.
That's why they didn't stop the high arch. These people were all stunned by the appearance of Gao Gong now. Oh, yes. Who would have thought. The cabinet ministers of the imperial court would run wild in the palace; Who could have imagined that. It turned out to be an old man who was about to turn sixty. You can run like this.
This road is not too close. But it's not much. Gao Gong ran all the way over. Although when he only ran to the third of the way. The speed has slowed down considerably. But the high arch really didn't work, and time came.
Stopped high arch. Stretched out his hand to hold the stone railing next to the stairs under the Qianqing Palace. Bending over and gasping for air. I couldn't slow down for half a day. But even so. His head was still up. Look at the building above the stairs. I want to go up right away.
I was able to breathe a little easier. The high arch was already struggling to climb up.
At this time, the high arch was suddenly felt. It turns out that climbing stairs is also such a strenuous task. His feet were filled with iron sand. It's struggling. But even so. The high arch will not give up either. He had a tremendous conviction in his heart. Of course. It's more about achieving what you want. And it motivates him. Forget the pain.
Finally. Climbed up. The high arch doesn't care about resting at all. Walk directly to Longqing's bedroom.
Along. There are not a few palace maids and eunuchs who see Gao Gong like this. But they all looked at the high arch that was now flushed with red.
At this time. A very sad scene was playing out in the room. The difference is. It's not acting. It's a fact. And the people present now. Most of them are also true feelings.
Longqing, who was fed the medicine. It didn't take long for me to wake up. I saw Long Qingxing. Zhu Yijun was naturally very excited.
But this is not the case with Longqing.
As the saying goes, the condition of your own body. Or I know best. Actually, it was two months ago. From the day Long Qing fell ill and did not go to the court. Long Qing already knows it in his heart.
It's just that time. First, what Li Guifei and Zhang Fan and others covered up was really good. And Longqing's body is weak. But he didn't feel too powerless. Long Qing was a little self-deceived and didn't ask.
But this time. The situation is quite different.
After Longqing retired from the morning court. It's dizzy from the brain. When your legs start to go limp. I already know it in my heart. Your limit is approaching.
And now. Long Qing, who had woken up again, could already feel it clearly. I could die at any time.
But Longqing, who woke up. The first thing I saw was my tearful son Zhu Yijun. This left Long Qing without even time to lament himself. I immediately thought of my son.
Grab the bull by the horns. He immediately asked Feng Bao, who was standing next to him, to change Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng and Gao Yi among the cabinet ministers. Of course. Longqing naturally will not forget Zhang Fan.
Until he said this. He just found out. Of the four people he was to summon. Three have already arrived.
Longqing is not a stupid person. Although it is said that he is greedy and lustful. But he's smart. See this scene in front of you. He understood whose idea it was. looked at Concubine Li. Long Qing didn't say anything. He already mentally agrees.
But even if I agreed. It doesn't mean that Longqing doesn't like it at all. He was the first to call out and speak. It's Zhang Fan. And the others. All of them were blasted out by Long Qing. Even his own queen, concubine, and crown prince did not stay.
in the room. Long Qing asked Zhang Fan to kneel in front of him. Swore in the most vicious language of the time. will never betray Zhu Yijun. You must not harbor evil intentions. No matter how greedy Zhang Fan is in the future. But you must not do anything that is unfavorable to Zhu Yijun. And also asked Zhang Fan to assist Zhu Yijun in the right.
It's not that Long Qinggao looked at Zhang Fan or anything else. It's all because Long Qing understands one thing. Zhang Fan will play a great role in Zhu Yijun in the future. can definitely help Zhu Yijun govern the country.
And more importantly. Long Qing understood what kind of position Zhang Fan was standing in his son's mind. Although Zhang Fan's current performance seems almost flawless in Longqing. But things to come. No one can see it. Yan Song of the year. Didn't he start out with big ambitions. And is it a famous pillar of the imperial court?
In the face of Long Qing, this can almost be regarded as a prayer. How could Zhang Fan refuse. He had to follow Longqing's way. Sent out the viciousness to the extreme. Even from the point of view of atheism in Zhang Fan's previous life, it is an oath that cannot be violated absolutely.
Although Zhang Fan felt that this was not necessary. But when he saw that he had finished his vow. The relieved smile on Long Qing's face. Zhang Fan suddenly felt that this was fine.
The people outside don't know what's inside. Long Qing and Zhang Fan both said something. But Long Qing then called them all in. In the eyes of everyone. Longqing must have explained some very important things to Zhang Fan. But I didn't expect it. What Longqing wanted was just a promise from Zhang Fan. A promise that can be broken by a heartless person.
Afterwards. Long Qing brought some things to Zhang Juzheng and Gao Yi. It is nothing more than to assist Zhu Yijun, the emperor, in the future. Govern the world of the Ming Dynasty and so on.
Zhang Juzheng and Gao Yi naturally readily agreed.
However afterward. Long Qing let them out. I started to say "goodbye" to my family.
People who were kicked out of the house knew about it. Longqing must still have something to say. Now he must be waiting for the last person who didn't show up. High arch.
Wait until Longqing calls the people outside into the house again. Zhang Fan can see it. Even Concubine Li's eyes turned red. Zhu Yijun's face still has obvious tear stains. was crying in front of Longqing's bed.
It was at this time......
"Your Majesty. The head of the cabinet, Gao Gonggao, has arrived. A eunuch walked in and said.
"Let him in." Long Qing leaned on the edge of the bed. Said weakly.
"Micro ...... The minister is a high arch. Knock on Your Majesty. The high arch walked in. After seeing the people in the house. There was a pause in the conversation. And he fell to his knees. He bowed down.
Oh, yes. Least wanted. It was also the scene that Gao Gong had thought of in his heart that appeared in front of him. Really. The last thing you want is someone to come before you. Now it's all here. And there is no shortage of one.
Faced with this situation. High arch angry. Very angry. But in addition to being angry in the heart. He couldn't even show it. He could only comfort himself.
Needless to say, the queen, the concubine and the crown prince. After all, it is Longqing's family. There's nothing wrong with getting here first.
Zhang Fan and Zhang Juzheng are much younger than Gao Gong. Go fast. First arrival is also good.
Although Grohe is about the same age as himself. But after all, he is four years younger than Gao Gong. And it looks like the body is much better than the high arch. Go fast. It's nothing to arrive before the high arch.
Feng Bao is better excused. After all, Feng Bao is the eunuch of the palm print of the celebrant eunuch. Let's talk about it today. If Longqing is the chairman of a company. Then Feng Baoke is the chairman's personal secretary. Feng Bao is as it should be here.
I found these plausible reasons for myself. Although Gao Gong is still unhappy in his heart. Very unpleasant. But I was finally able to accept it.
"You're here." Long Qing's voice came. "Get up. I don't have much time now. Don't mess with these rituals. Long Qing said this very calmly.
And stand up for the high arch. I simply don't know what to say. Say "the dragon is healthy". Or say something like "hooray". That's just farting.
At this time. Long Qingyou felt dizzy. It's just that he's in bed now. Even Zhu Yijun, who was close at hand, didn't see anything.
"...... in the future" Long Qing suddenly looked at Gao Gong. Said. "The prince still has to bother Mr. to take care of it more."
The person who listened to Longqing's words. There was a rather surprised expression on his face. But there is only one high arch. It was a face of surprise. But the heart is happy.
