On the third day of the lunar calendar, when the sky was gray and bright, the patrolling soldiers became more and more frequent, and just by the first feeling, you could feel that the Jingshi was shrouded in a tense haze, and everywhere was filled with the smell of gunsmoke coming. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

There are more and more soldiers patrolling, I want to be more dense than a day ago, and more strict, there are sentry posts of Qing soldiers everywhere, and large bows and crossbows have also increased a lot, as if they were made overnight, like mushrooms after a rain, distributed in various areas of the capital, and the most in the palace, these large bows and crossbows are not only huge, but also vigorous and powerful, not three or five people can pull apart, the bow and arrow is made of fine iron, weighing ten catties, and the length is three meters.

At this moment, these military heavy bows and crossbows have already been opened, and they are in a state of full bow, and they only need to open a hub to soar into the sky, and there is a movable turntable underneath, which increases its flexibility.

Just a cursory glance, judging from the materials of these bows, you can see that its power is huge, powerful and powerful, and how extraordinary it is.

The morning sun is rising, the temperature of the land is rising, but the atmosphere in the capital has not warmed up at all, it is still deserted, the people on the streets and alleys, in addition to the soldiers or soldiers, a large number of soldiers have not brought more vitality to this city, but the taste of Xiao killing is getting stronger and stronger.

The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, which can best reflect the atmosphere of the capital at this moment.

In the Forbidden City, in the palace, two eunuchs hurried by, looking worried and panicked, rubbing shoulders with teams of Praetorian Guards, the palace was heavily guarded, and the military heavy bows and crossbows ensured the safety of the air, however, all this did not bring a sense of security to the palace maids and eunuchs, and they were still worried.

The two eunuchs had just passed by a team of Praetorian Guards, and when they came to a place where no one was around, they couldn't help but slow down, and one of the eunuchs glanced at the military heavy bow and crossbow at a high place, then retracted his gaze, and said worriedly: "Xiao Lizi, do you say these divine giant crossbows are useful?" Can you really shoot down the anti-thief's airship? ”

"Shhhh Be quiet, if you are listened to by the chief eunuch, you know that we will be punished if we chew the root of our tongue, don't talk about this, these are not what we should care about, whether it is useful or not, we are just a slave, we can't even get out of the palace gate, and we can't change anything, or don't make mistakes, just be good or bad. The other little eunuch hurriedly said, his voice was very low, and he looked left and right in fear.

"Yes, yes, let's not talk about this, hurry up, the emperor should wake up soon, if you go late, you can ......"

As soon as the words fell, as if they had thought of some terrible consequences, the two little eunuchs were like kittens who had been stepped on their tails, their faces changed, and they immediately sped up a few points, and quickly walked towards the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Soon, the two little eunuchs came to the door of the Palace of Raising the Heart, and saw that the palace maids and eunuchs on duty today were standing there, listening to the orders, the door of the Palace of the Heart Cultivation was still tightly closed, seeing this situation, they knew that the Emperor Taishang had not woken up yet, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves relaxed a little, and he subconsciously wiped his forehead with his sleeves, although he did not sweat.

Bowing slightly, he walked quickly, and those palace maids and little eunuchs would merge together, whispering earnestly.

The sun is getting higher and higher, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the palace is still quiet, without any movement, at this time, these palace maids and eunuchs began to be uneasy, some riots, worried about Qianlong inside, however, without any orders, they did not dare to go in, because the emperor's temper is getting more and more strange, especially when he is sleeping, if he is disturbed, the consequences will be very serious.

At this moment, although everyone was very anxious, no one wanted to be the first bird, afraid of being blamed, and just like that, the time dragged on for more and more.

The more time passed, the more apprehensive these people became, and in the end, a slightly bold eunuch walked in, gently opened a door, walked in lightly, and walked towards the place where Qianlong rested, his body trembled a little, his legs seemed to be filled with lead water, and every step was so laborious.

Finally, the eunuch walked into the inner room and saw Qianlong asleep, only to see Qianlong lying motionless on the couch, covered with a silk brocade quilt, the whole person was quiet and peaceful, the same as in the past, but there was an indescribable strange feeling, which made people indescribable.

The eunuch walked a few more steps, came to Qianlong's approach, and called softly: "The Emperor, the Emperor, it's time to get up and wash up and eat~"

There was no response, and the eunuch's heart was tormented, but he still called: "The Emperor, the Emperor, it's time to get up and wash and eat~!" ”

Still didn't react, at this moment, the eunuch was already very close to Qianlong, and he could see it clearly, seeing that it was useless to raise his voice, the eunuch didn't call again, but looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at him, the more nervous and ugly he became.

At this moment, the eunuch's heart had a bad premonition, there was some kind of speculation, and after a short hesitation, he finally stretched out his right hand, poked it over, and put it in front of Qianlong's nose.

His legs were trembling, and he was almost paralyzed to the ground, but the eunuch was still insisting on himself, sensing Qianlong's snort, only feeling a slight airflow in and out of the emperor's nostrils.

I saw that the eunuch stroked Qianlong's face, which was a little cold, and put his fingers on the artery in his neck, and then lifted the futon to probe Qianlong's heart, all these actions were carried out in a quiet environment, fast and slight, careful and cautious.

Suddenly, the eunuch suddenly withdrew his palm, covered the bedding again, and then ran away, towards the outside of the Heart Cultivation Palace, as soon as he walked out, he shouted: "The big thing is not good, go to the imperial doctor, inform the emperor, the emperor is sick, go quickly, go quickly." ”

During the whole process, not only the eunuch went in, but there were other palace maids and eunuchs following behind, but they didn't go deeper, and they saw the eunuch's actions clearly, and when they heard these words, they immediately realized something.

These eunuchs did not dare to stay, and immediately ran out of the two, one went to the Tai Hospital, and the other went to Yuxiu Palace.

Soon, a large number of Praetorian Guards were densely packed around the Yangxin Palace, guarding the exits, strictly checking the entry and exit of personnel, Emperor Jiaqing and the Imperial Physician arrived one after another, standing in the inner room of the Yangxin Palace, Qianlong's resting place.

At this moment, Qianlong was still lying there, maintaining a sleeping position, the imperial doctor knelt beside the couch, uneasy and nervous for Qianlong to take the pulse, probing the condition, Emperor Jiaqing stood next to him, with a strong look of worry and anxiety on his face, several times wanted to inquire about the condition, but when he saw the serious look of the imperial doctor, he held back and did not dare to disturb.
