Chapter 93: The Imminent Death of Man

It was also the sixth year of the Apocalypse, at the end of the year, the Jurchen old Khan King Nurchi fell ill and died at the age of six. He was succeeded to the throne by his son, Huang Taiji.

After Huang Taiji inherited the throne, he seemed to be more honest, and he didn't dare to go to the chasm to find trouble with Sun Chengzong, and from time to time he also talked with Lord Sun and the owner of the island about a judgment, in short, everything was peaceful.

Even Yue Su, who didn't know much about history, knew that the Ming Dynasty was replaced by the Qing Dynasty, and the so-called Qing Dynasty was the Jurchen outside the Guan. He wanted to clear the Jurchen trouble for the emperor, but after discussing with Xiong Tingbi, he also realized that now was not a good opportunity to attack the Jurchens, so he took the initiative to attack, and was very unlucky with the Ming army who were not good at field warfare. So, Lord Yue had no choice but to give up.

Also this year, the parade ended and the emperor returned to the capital. Because the weather is warm, if you want to have a while, you will go to the West Garden of the palace to take a boat ride accompanied by Ke and Wei Zhongxian, and first drink in the shallow water north of the bridge. Then, he went to the deep water with Wang Tiqian, Wei Zhongxian and two cronies and eunuchs, but unexpectedly, a gust of wind blew and overturned the boat, and Carpenter Zhu fell into the water and almost drowned. Although he was rescued, after this fright, he fell ill.

The emperor fell into the water, it was a big event, and it was soon spread to the Manchu Dynasty, Yue Su's wings heard about it, and immediately admonished Lord Yue, who could take this opportunity to uproot the eunuchs. The charges were all prepared, and the imperial cruise ship was coerced, intending to assassinate the king. If you hadn't taken the imperial ship to the deep water area, would the emperor have fallen into the water and become ill?

Yue Su understood that as long as he made his own statement, with this crime, it was at least possible to bring down Wei Zhongxian. But he finally knew that this would never be deliberate by Father-in-law Wei, and the people in the world who didn't want the emperor to die were probably Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka family.

However, before Lord Yue could act, news came from Liu Mingguo's side, and Wang Tiqian was dry. Wei Zhongxian and Keshi were crying in front of the emperor's sickbed, saying that it was purely an accident, so the prince was still frightened and hung over. Please be sure to be aware of the emperor, we are extremely loyal.

Carpenter Zhu also knew the loyalty of the Hakka clan and Wei Zhongxian, and told them in a weak voice that I was okay with me, and I knew your loyalty, so this matter was over.

After getting this news, Yue Su understood that it was useless for him to be a presumptuous person, so he also revoked his mind and went directly to the palace to face the saint and ask the emperor for peace.

Wang Tiqian's death, whether it was or was killed, no one pursued this. But this will definitely be a change for the pattern of harem eunuchs. The palm seal eunuch is dead, who will come? After doing the math, there are only two people who are qualified now, one is Wei Zhongxian, and the other is Zou Yi, the eunuch of the palm seal of the Imperial Horse Supervisor.

Zou Yi has always been scheming, and he is not very right with Gonggong Wei, let him be a palm seal eunuch, where will Wei Zhongxian be willing, if that is the case, it is better to throw his head away. At that moment, Gonggong Wei took the initiative to ask Ying to take the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal, and he was still the commander of the East Factory. The palm print eunuch has made up for it, and the eunuch of Bingbi has become vacant again, and Liu Mingguo has made up for this position with righteousness and bravery.

Since this fall into the water, Carpenter Zhu's health has deteriorated, and the imperial doctors have tested various things, but they have not been able to make Carpenter Zhu's body better. dragged a heavy sick body, came to the weather for seven years, on this day, Zhu Carpenter's health suddenly improved, many people know, this is a return to the light, the limit is approaching. Carpenter Zhu really didn't know about this, and he was happy to pass on Yue Su to enter the palace and start carpenter work together.

And Carpenter Zhu's words today are obviously more than in the past, and he also asked Yue Su to tell him a story. Yue Su naturally would not refuse the emperor's request, not only telling the story with a picture of the painting, but also going against the norm, after lunch, he did not leave and left, still accompanying the emperor.

Carpenter Zhu was very happy today, and he also had endless words for Yue Su. But when it was evening, the carpenter Zhu who was sitting in the chair was obviously sluggish.

Yue Su was clear, and hurriedly asked with concern, "Your Majesty, how are you?" Isn't it too tired today, otherwise take a break. ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't hear Carpenter Zhu's voice, and at this moment, Yue Su was startled, got up, walked to the emperor's side, and planned to gently probe the emperor's snort with his fingers. But before he could put his finger in front of the emperor's nose, he heard Carpenter Zhu say, "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired...... Ahem......"

At this point, Carpenter Zhu suddenly coughed violently, and Yue Su hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped his mouth for the emperor.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

After a violent cough, it took a long time to stop, Yue Su took the handkerchief away and found that his face was full of blood. "Your Majesty, your body is ......" Yue Su immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you must have a good rest, and the minister will go to pass the imperial doctor." ”

Carpenter Zhu smiled and said, "Aiqing, I'm afraid my body is unacceptable...... You've been by my side all these years...... Relieve my sorrows...... Supporting this Ming dynasty...... There is no social ...... passed down from the ancestors. Waste in my hands...... Ahem......"

At this point, Carpenter Zhu coughed a few more times before continuing: "I have passed, and I want to be a pair of eternal monarchs and ministers with Aiqing...... I did it...... But Aiqing's road is still long...... There is still a long way to go...... Can you do it...... I am under the Nine Springs...... You'll ......."

"Your Majesty......" Yue Su knelt on the ground, kowtowed, "You'll be fine...... His Majesty's kindness to the ministers is high and the waters are deep, and it is difficult to repay the ministers for their deaths. He must do his best to serve His Majesty, and to prosper the Ming Dynasty, even if he wants to take the life of his minister, the minister will never give up......"

There is a saying in this world that a woman is a woman who pleases herself, and a man who is a confidant dies. This is true. Yue Su was just a policeman in his previous life, catching thieves and handling cases, how could he have such glory, he understood that the person who gave him everything now was sitting in front of him, if there was no this person, he would never have today, or he would have been lying in the grave at this moment.

Carpenter Zhu and his words are serious, and his words with Carpenter Zhu are also from the bottom of his heart. At this moment, he has decided to give his life to the person in front of him who treats him well, no matter what this person has to do, even if he dies, he will complete it.

"I'm afraid it's not much time...... "Carpenter Zhu is obviously much weaker, "While I'm not confused now, there are some things that I have to explain as soon as possible...... You go and call someone, and call the queen, the prince, the guest, and Wei Zhongxian......"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yue Su stood up, walked to the door in a few steps, and shouted: "The emperor has a decree, please invite the queen, the crown prince, and Mrs. Fengsheng to see you here." ”

Although the eunuch at the door didn't know what was going on, first, Lord Yue came out in person, and invited the queen, the prince and Mrs. Fengsheng to come here, and it was expected to be a big deal. While delivering the message to these three people, he waited for the other eunuchs outside the door, and immediately went to inform his masters, Wei Zhongxian and Liu Mingguo.

When Yue Su returned to the emperor's side, Carpenter Zhu seemed to be very tired, and said in a loud voice: "Aiqing, help me to the sofa inside to rest for a while." ”

No, the temple of the heart is no, the outside is working, and there is a place to rest inside. Carpenter Zhu set up a sofa inside, which he made himself. Yue Su helped him in and sat on a large sofa, Carpenter Zhu leaned back, and said in a weak voice: "Aiqing, this sofa is the first wood I learned from you in the past, and it is also the first sofa I made by myself. ”

"Your Majesty...... You need to recuperate now...... Try to talk as little as possible......" Yue Su said worriedly.

"I'm afraid that no, I won't have a chance in the future......" Unconsciously, tears fell from the corners of Carpenter Zhu's eyes, and he said loudly: "Do you still remember to try your carving skills with me on the streets of Beijing at the beginning?" ”

"I remember that at that time...... I don't know if it's Your Majesty...... also won a piece of jade pendant from His Majesty......" Yue solemnly said, and couldn't help but feel a little sad, tears burst out of his eyes.

"When I ...... Life is not rich...... OK...... That jade pendant was the only tool my grandfather had given me...... And it turned out to be a win...... But...... I didn't feel distressed...... "Carpenter Zhu said with a little sadness: "I use this jade pendant...... I have been exchanged for the talent of the pillars of Daming...... Worth...... Worth ......"

"Your Majesty......" Yue Su didn't know what to do now, and fell to his knees again, crying out loud.

"This jade pendant...... You have to keep it safe...... If it doesn't come to me in the future...... Take it out often...... to that jade pendant...... It's equivalent to ...... to me," Carpenter Zhu said earnestly.

"Long live Your Majesty...... It's going to be fine...... The minister still wants to serve the emperor for another five years......" Yue Su cried.

"No, it doesn't work... I'm afraid I really won't be able to do it this time...... cough cough ...... "At this point, Carpenter Zhu coughed violently again, Yue Su's handkerchief was not held in time, and Carpenter Zhu coughed up all the blood to the placket of his clothes.

"Your Majesty...... The minister will go and pass on the imperial doctor......"

"No, it's gone...... It's been so long...... If only it could be cured...... It has long been cured...... Don't wait for today...... I just want to talk to Aiqing today......" Carpenter Zhu's tears have flowed to his mouth. "I know...... Wei Qing used to calculate many things against you...... Hell-bent on taking your life...... When I'm gone...... He lost his backer...... Nothing...... So I'm ...... today. Want to be in front of you...... Ask for a favor on his behalf...... Remembering his faithfulness...... and an old age...... Let him die well......"

People are dying and their words are good, Zhu Carpenter is not confused at all, don't he usually do much, but nothing can escape his eyes. He knew that as soon as he died, Wei Zhongxian would lose his backer, and Yue Su wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian, which would be easy, so he pleaded here for Wei Zhongxian first.

"Father-in-law Wei is loyal to the emperor...... Wechen is afraid that he is ashamed of himself...... Although I had a holiday with Father-in-law Wei in the past...... But that's all a bit of a chicken thing...... The minister has never taken it to heart...... "Yue Su said: "Your Majesty's advice...... I must keep in mind...... Your Majesty's peace of mind is ......"
