"Knock knock," there was a knock outside the door.

The people in the room understood that the person who knocked on the door must be the eunuch in the palace, and he was sent by someone, and only Li Guifei knew that the four of them were in the room, of course, the queen and queen might also know, but if the two of them came, how to knock on the door.

"Who," as the highest eunuch in the palace, it was naturally Feng Bao who asked, "Come in and speak,"

The door was opened, and it was indeed a little eunuch in the palace who came in, he walked into the room, thinking about the four people present bowing down and saluting: "Gonggong Feng, three adults, Niangniang asked the slave maid to come and summon the three to go to His Majesty's bedroom,"

Hearing him say this, the four of them all looked at each other and exchanged glances.

"You go down first, tell Niangniang, our family and a few adults will go over," Feng Bao commanded again.

"Yes," the little eunuch seemed to be a little afraid of Feng Bao, and replied to Feng Bao's words with a rather timid expression, and then walked out of the room quickly.

"It looks like ......" After seeing the little eunuch leave, Zhang Fan said with a somewhat melancholy expression, "The time has come,"

The other three also looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

"Since that's the case......" For a long time, Zhang Juzheng said, "Let's go over, don't let the mother wait for us," After saying this, Zhang Juzheng didn't say anything more, and walked out of the door by himself.

Behind him, Gao Yi seemed to be about to say something, but his mouth opened, but he couldn't say it, looking at Zhang Juzheng's figure disappearing outside the door, he finally closed his mouth and walked out.

Behind, Feng Bao and Zhang Fan looked at each other, didn't say anything, just walked out the door together.

The door of Longqing's bedroom is naturally guarded by the eunuch now, but since Concubine Li has already explained, the eunuch took the initiative to open the door when he saw the four people coming and let them in.

Feng Bao walked in the front, Zhang Juzheng and Gao Yi walked side by side in the middle, and Zhang Fan walked behind the three.

It's just that the eunuch has just opened the door, and Zhang Fan heard a low cry coming from the house, this voice Zhang Fan is very familiar with, it is Zhu Yijun.

Well, how can you cry, although Longqing can't wake up now, there is no need for Zhu Yijun to cry.

The only explanation is that Zhu Yijun already knows the truth of the matter.

Thinking of this, the pity in Zhang Fan's heart rose again, and with excitement, Zhu Yijun could finally see his father who was sick in bed, which was originally a thing that made Zhu Yijun very happy, although it was not happy.

However, when he arrived at his father's window, Longqing was asleep, and before his father could wake up and say a few words to himself, he was told by his mother that his father was about to die.

This kind of blow, no matter who it is, will not be able to withstand it, not to mention that Zhu Yijun is only a ten-year-old child now, and he has never experienced any winds and waves.

Sighing secretly, Zhang Fan followed behind the other three and walked in.

"Slave maid...... Ministers, knock on the queen, His Royal Highness the Prince, and the concubine," the four people who entered quickly knelt down and saluted the people in the room.

"Get up, all of you," said the queen, also listless, obviously in a bad mood.

"Xie Niangniang," the four thanked and stood up.

Zhang Fan, who stood up, secretly looked ahead, and saw Zhu Yijun with a thin and sad figure, kneeling in front of Longqing's bed, his upper body was close to Longqing's side, he didn't speak, as if he was afraid of disturbing his father's rest, and even the crying seemed to be nothing.

Even now, Zhang Fan just looked at his back, but he could guess that Zhu Yijun's face must be extremely painful now.

Queen Wang stood next to her, looking at Zhu Yijun but didn't speak, but Zhang Fan just glanced at her secretly, but found that her face was also very haggard, and the left eye socket that could only be seen on the side was also red, and she obviously cried.

And Li Guifei was standing on the other side of Zhu Yijun, her face was also very sad, pale and weak, but there were no tears.

Zhang Fan couldn't help but admire in his heart, if ordinary people saw this, they might think that Li Guifei was inhumane, and now that her husband is about to die, she can still be so determined, but Zhang Fan feels otherwise, to say that Li Guifei is not sad, this is absolutely impossible, in Zhang Fan's opinion, Li Guifei is a very strong woman.

Thinking of this, Zhang Fan rejoiced in his heart again, fortunately, Concubine Li Guifei is not a woman with real power, otherwise even if there is the holy edict that Zhu Yuanzhang promulgated "the harem shall not interfere in politics", I am afraid that the court will still have to be in chaos.

After the four of them stood up, Feng Bao, as a eunuch and had the right hand of the emperor, naturally stood up.

"Niangniang," Zhang Juzheng was the one with the highest official position among the remaining three, so naturally he spoke first, and he bowed to Li Guifei and asked, "I don't know how Your Majesty's condition is," he skipped Queen Wang and asked Li Guifei directly.

Although it is said that the palace is nominally ruled by the queen now, but in fact it is Li Guifei, Zhang Juzheng is very rude to do this, but no one cares about this, this is not because of today's special period, but the palace has always been like this.

Long Qing never asked about this matter, and acquiesced, in fact, Queen Wang, who had suffered a loss, would never say that Li Guifei had robbed her of her rights, and Li Guifei herself was not hypocritical, even in front of Longqing or Queen Wang, even now, in front of the minister, she never acted cowardly, and she had to make concessions with Queen Wang, and she always responded directly.

It can be seen that Longqing's love for the weak woman Queen Wang, as well as the kind image of Queen Wang herself in the palace, if she hadn't been recognized like this, Li Guifei would have been able to ascend to the queen's throne with just a little tricks, but she had never done so.

Zhang Juzheng's words are almost nonsense, although he and Gao Yi have not discussed it with Li Guifei, but through Zhang Fan and Feng Bao, whether it is them or Li Guifei, they all understand the agreement between them in their hearts.

Zhang Juzheng said this now, he still wanted to hide people's eyes.

"Your Majesty, he ......" Concubine Li Guifei didn't know what to say now, she didn't know that Zhang Juzheng already knew that Longqing's time was running out, and she had buried the news of Longqing's death for so long, and she was a little difficult to say when it was announced for the first time.

"Don't say it again," just as Concubine Li was worried about how to speak, Zhu Yijun, who was lying on the side of Longqing's bed, stood up, walked in front of Zhang Juzheng and the others, looked extremely sad, and said, "Father...... Father, he doesn't have much time left,"

"What," Zhang Juzheng immediately made a look of surprise, obviously not wanting Zhu Yijun to know anything.

Even with it, Gao Yi and Zhang Fan behind Zhang Juzheng also made a very surprised look, but among the three people, whether it is Zhang Juzheng and Gao Yi who have been in the officialdom for many years, or Zhang Fan, who has not been in the official career for too long, in front of Zhu Yijun's eyes, the performance is flawless.

"Teacher," Zhu Yijun walked in front of Zhang Fan, "This palace now understands, why didn't the mother concubine let the palace come to visit her father, but the palace also wants to thank the teacher for letting the palace see his father for the last time," After saying this, Zhu Yijun actually bent down and was about to bow to Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly supported him: "Your Highness, this is absolutely unacceptable,"

However, Zhu Yijun didn't want to get up, the strength of his body continued to go down, Zhang Fan looked at Li Guifei in desperation, but Li Guifei didn't say anything.

Surprised, Zhang Fan's hand loosened, Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Fan, and said solemnly: "Taifu's great grace, Zhu Yijun will never forget it in his life," After speaking, Zhu Yijun bowed to Zhang Fan.

Being bowed by the crown prince or the future emperor like this, Zhang Fan can be regarded as the world's own, but Zhang Fan doesn't feel this honor at all at the moment, only this special feeling, and he feels extremely embarrassed.

Standing up straight, Zhu Yijun didn't look at anyone, then returned to Longqing's bedside and knelt down.

"Niangniang," at this time, a eunuch walked in, "The imperial physician Wang Youcai has already sent the medicine according to Niangniang's instructions,"

After Li Guifei listened, she looked at her son, hesitated for a while, and then said with a firm face: "Let him come in,"

Wang Youcai walked in, followed by a small eunuch carrying a box.

Wang Youcai took the box and opened it, and inside was a bowl of steaming soup with a strong medicinal smell.

"Niangniang, Weichen has already fried the decoction," Wang Youcai said.

"Give...... Give it to Your Majesty," Li Guifei said.

After a while, a palace maid came up, took the medicine bowl, walked to Longqing's bed, and wanted to feed Longqing with medicine.

But this time, someone is going to do it.

"Slow," it was Zhu Yijun who spoke, he stretched out his hand to stop the palace maid, and said, "This bowl of medicine, I will personally feed it for my father,"

The palace maid looked at Li Guifei next to her with some hesitation, and Li Guifei finally nodded helplessly, and the queen on the side couldn't bear to look at it anymore and turned around.

After taking the medicine bowl, Zhu Yijun carefully fed Longqing spoonful by spoonful, if there was any medicine juice accidentally flowing out, Zhu Yijun did not let the palace maid do it, but personally wiped it off for Longqing.

Zhang Fan looked at this scene, and felt very sad in his heart, Zhu Yijun, who was kept in the dark, didn't know that this bowl of medicine that would greatly reduce Longqing's life was fed by him personally.

The people present, as long as they knew what was going on, whether it was the queen, the concubine, the eunuch, or the minister, knew in their hearts that this secret would never be able to be told
