Just after noon, Xie Qian hurriedly went from Wenyuan Pavilion to the direction of Qianqing Palace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Although Emperor Hongzhi did not recover from his illness, he had moved to the Qianqing Palace, and together with Empress Zhang, he stayed here to take care of him, while the crown prince was sent back to the Chufang Palace.

In addition to strengthening the vigilance of the Chufang Palace to prevent someone from being unfavorable to the prince, everything in the East Palace is still the same, and the prince still needs to attend classes today, which is also a special request from Emperor Hongzhi after waking up, even at the moment of his death, he hopes that his son is learning and improving.

But this does not mean that Zhu Youzhi is a strict father, he can only be regarded as a loving father at most, it can be said that Zhu Houzhao's misconduct in the future is because of his poor discipline, and the son does not teach his father's faults, which is reasonable in any era, the reason why Zhu Youzhi has become a good emperor who is strict with himself is because he grew up in a dangerous environment since he was a child, and he did not give his son this sense of distress.

Xie moved to the outside of the emperor's bedroom of the Qianqing Palace, and Xiao Jing stood respectfully at the door.

Even if Emperor Hongzhi was not really dying, Xiao Jing still led the celebrant and became the most powerful eunuch in the palace, and he could also be called the "inner minister".

"The elder is waiting outside first, and the slave and maid will go in and spread the word."

Although Xiao Jing was very powerful, he was always humble and courteous in front of foreign ministers, which was also due to his character, and he always respected those famous ministers, including Xie Qian, a cabinet scholar who was very trusted by Emperor Hongzhi.

Xie Qian stood alone outside the dormitory, thinking, "Could it be that this is just a rehearsal for the change of the throne?" Will it end with all the peace and quiet, and all the affairs of the palace and the court will remain the same? ”

"Then why did Your Majesty summon me in particular? In terms of fame and status in the court, I have always been inferior to Liu Shaofu and Binzhi, and this matter makes me unable to understand it. ”

Thinking about things in his heart, Xie Qian's expression was a little dazed, and he suddenly heard a chaotic footsteps, he turned his head to see that a group of people hurried over, among them was the person carrying the medicine box, not the Imperial Doctor Han who was keeping vigil yesterday.

Xie Qian was quite familiar with the people in the Tai Hospital, there were many fresh faces among them, and strangely there were Taoist priests and monks behind him, which made Xie Qian feel very surprised.

Emperor Hongzhi has always believed in Taoism, but after Li Guang's demonic words confused the public and disturbed the court, Emperor Hongzhi's belief in Taoism decreased a lot, but as his body was not as good as before, he became enthusiastic about Taoist pills and health preservation again.

The imperial doctor, the Taoist priest and the monk arrived, staying in front of the Qianqing Palace, except for the imperial doctor who came up to pay a salute, the Taoist priest and the monk turned a blind eye to Xie Qian.

Xie Qian felt a little wrong in his heart.

As a Confucian scholar, he has always believed in the idea of "the son does not speak, the strange power is chaotic", and has always scoffed at the theory of ghosts and gods. Whether the emperor should believe or believe, Xie Qian really has no choice, he can only let these Taoist priests and monks do nonsense in the palace.

After Xiao Jing came out, when he saw the imperial physician and his staff, he did not summon Xie Qian into the palace as soon as possible, but instead said to the imperial physician in the past, asking them to enter the palace to meet him.

The people went in, but Xie Qian didn't do it.

The emperor was critically ill and summoned the cabinet scholars, but when the people arrived, they let the later Taoist priests and monks go to see the driver first, what is this like? He hurriedly asked Xiao Jing what was going on.

Xiao Jing looked embarrassed: "Pavilion elder may not know, this Chen Zhenren and Xifan Guoshi are all masters believed by His Majesty, yesterday they opened the altar in the palace, which made Your Majesty turn the corner, and after the Pavilion Elder went in to see Your Majesty, don't question this matter." Don't forget! ”

Xie Qian was resentful.

A few warlocks who were deceiving the public actually made a lot of nonsense here, saying that the emperor's life was saved by them, and Xie Qian didn't believe that the practice of opening the altar could have any effect on curing diseases and saving people.

But Xie Qian is very acquainted, the emperor's obsession with Taoism has not been a day or two, it is useless to say more, but it is better to wait for the emperor to see these demons, and then he will go in to see them, out of sight and out of mind. He won't embarrass Xiao Jing, and he can tell the weight of some things when he says something inappropriate.

While waiting outside, Xiao Jing roughly explained to Xie Qian the origin of the Taoist priest and the monk: "...... Chen Zhenren, whose name is Chen Yingxuan, is a Taoist immortal, and there are countless disciples around the Jingshi, as for the Western Fan National Teacher Nabu Jianshen, he has the ability to pass through ghosts and gods, and His Majesty is planning to give him a seal to allow him to walk around inside and outside the Qianqing Palace. This matter has been passed on this morning......"

Xie Qian said angrily: "What is the true person, I think he is just a warlock in the rivers and lakes, I never thought that this world is not ancient, there are demons mixed into the court, if I and other courtiers do not advise, wouldn't we want these people to defile the court?" ”

Since ancient times, there can be no man living in the inner garden of the imperial palace except for the emperor, and now Emperor Hongzhi is breaking this tradition left for thousands of years, and actually leaving the charlatan who bewitches the public in the palace.

Xie Qian couldn't figure out whether the emperor believed in Taoism or Buddhism, or was he sick and rushed to the doctor?

Chen Yingxian and Nabu Jianshen one is a Taoist, the other is a Buddhist, although Xie Qian can't tell how much the Western Fan National Master has to do with the Buddhist, but roughly thinking about it, the emperor should only trust one, and now invite the two of them into the palace at the same time, this is to try which side of the "mana" is strong, to make a choice?

"Elder Xie Ge, at this juncture, don't be stubborn." Xiao Jing was a little anxious.

Xie Qian clenched his fists and sighed hatefully, he really didn't want to pay attention to this kind of thing before, but now the emperor's life is almost gone, and the throne is changing, which is in line with the proverb that "the country will die, there will be demons", but he didn't dare to blatantly admonish the emperor with such words, because he was not stupid enough to curse the fate of the Ming Dynasty, how to look at it, the Ming Dynasty is now peaceful inside and outside, and it is not yet time to change the dynasty.

……

……

Zhu Youzhu met with the imperial doctor, the real person and the monk in the Qianqing Palace, and about half an hour passed, and only then did a cadre come out of it.

Xie Qian received the order to allow him to enter to see the driver, he was almost sixty years old, he didn't rest all night, and he just closed his eyes and slept in the morning, at this time Xie Qian's spirit was extremely sluggish, but he still waited outside for half an hour, at this time he was full of complaints, but he thought that he could see the emperor safe and sound, and his heart was still a little comforted.

"Your Majesty."

The scene was basically the same as when they met last night, the emperor was lying on the dragon couch behind the gauze tent, and the location was changed from Kunning Palace to Qianqing Palace, and Empress Zhang, eunuchs, palace women and other attendants sat next to him.

Zhu Youzhu heard Xie Qian's voice, and with a little surprise in his tone, he said, "Mr. Xie is here?" ”

Xie Qian was basically weak when he heard these words, which showed that Zhu Youji's illness was still very serious, and he saluted immediately: "It's an old minister." ”

"Yes, I walked in front of the ghost gate yesterday, fortunately, with Zhang Zhenren and the national teacher, my illness has improved, but I still need to continue to practice in the palace for 7749 days before my condition can be cured......"

Zhu Youzhi did not shy away from it this time, and attributed all the credit for his recovery to Zhang Yingxian and the monk Nabu Jianshen, which made Xie Qian feel resentful...... If it weren't for the old minister who diagnosed you with critical symptoms yesterday, the emperor decided to come to the rescue, would you be able to turn the crisis into safety? Choked you to death on the spot!

We old ministers stayed up all night in the palace, you don't miss it, and now you actually go to thank a few warlocks in the rivers and lakes, and don't say a word to us, which really makes the old ministers feel cold! (To be continued.) )
