Chapter 716: Zihe enters the palace

Qin Kan and Yang Tinghe both spoke easily, but their hearts were extremely heavy.

Yang Tinghe is Zhu Houzhao's mentor, more than 20 years of master-apprentice love and more than 10 years of monarch and minister love are blocked in his heart, at this moment Yang Tinghe's heart is sad no one knows, not only that, as the first assistant of the cabinet, there is a more serious problem in front of him.

If Zhu Houzhao can't wake up, or...... Who will be the next monarch of the Ming Dynasty? Zhu Houzhao has no heirs, Yongle has been passed down for more than 100 years, and it is completely broken here, if you want to choose the heir to the throne, you can only initiate a court meeting by the cabinet, and choose a peer of the closest bloodline from the Zhu family genealogy, that is, Zhu Houzhao's cousin or cousin to inherit.

Whether you can accept it or not, there is a shocking fact in front of everyone,—— if Zhu Houzhao can't wake up, the sky of the Ming Dynasty will change.

At this moment, in front of the door of the leopard room, the eyes of all the courtiers were all focused on Yang Tinghe, Yang Yiqing, Mao Cheng, Qin Kan and others, they were the most powerful people in the Ming Empire except for the emperor, and their attitude determined the next direction and rise and fall of the Ming Empire.

Yang Tinghe is under a lot of pressure, he is the first assistant of the cabinet, he holds a lot of power, and he has a heavy responsibility, and his thoughts are slightly wrong and the Ming Dynasty will decline from then on, he will become a sinner through the ages, and he and his descendants will bear the endless scolding of future generations.

When everyone was silent, Yang Tinghe coughed a few times and arched his hand towards Qin Kan: "Grandpa Qin, look at this matter......

Something so big happened, when the head of the court actually asked the opinion of a prince who should not have been involved in politics in the first place, the message released by this move was obvious. The courtiers were all very discerning, so except for a self-proclaimed high-ranking person who snorted coldly, everyone's earnest eyes were all on Qin Kan.

Qin Kan looked at the closed door of the leopard room, his mind was as chaotic as confusion, and his face was gloomy, like the sky was about to pour out a torrential rain.

"First do your best to save Your Majesty, if Your Majesty wakes up, the rest ......will be gone," Qin Kan burst out of his teeth.

Yang Tinghe hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Yes, saving Your Majesty is the first priority, come here." After pausing for a while, Liu Wentai was sentenced by the Tai Hospital. Please come and meet with us and report your Majesty's condition ......"

Qin Kan added: "At this critical juncture, we should spare no effort to save Your Majesty. Famous doctors in the market in Beijing can also invite the leopard room to participate in the consultation. Such as the famous Mr. Long Erzhi of the Beijing Division. And ......"

"And me." A delicate but cold voice came from afar, interrupting Qin Kan's words.

Everyone shook their heads and dodged out of the way. But not far away, Tang Zihe was wearing a green skirt and a hat covered with a black veil, and he walked around the captain of the Jinyi Guard.

Qin Kan's gloomy face finally burst into a smile, and he said to Yang Tinghe: "Who is this Tang girl...... It is my confidante for many years, and he was also a miracle doctor who lived countless people, the sister of Tang Yin, the son of the country, in the past few years, he has been hanging the pot in Beijing to help the world, giving medicine to the poor people, it is estimated that all colleagues have heard of her reputation, and the current situation is urgent, the so-called internal move does not avoid relatives, I think about it, I think that Miss Tang should still be invited to His Majesty to take a look, I don't know what you think? ”

Everyone nodded suddenly, and looked at Qin Kan's face and couldn't help but become ambiguous.

They have indeed heard of Tang Zihe's reputation, and his medical skills are quite clever, it is said that the second finger of the dragon of the Jingshi is so much that he has nothing to say, and he actually put Mr. Long in bed when he is sick. However, in comparison, the reputation of Mrs. Ning Guogong's foreign mansion seems to be bigger and louder than that of Tang Divine Doctor, and at this moment, Grandpa Qin invited this girl, could it be that he wanted to take the opportunity to treat His Majesty and give her the title of Mrs. Commandment, so as to raise her status a little higher, so as not to be thrown into the well by Ning Guogong's fierce lady in the main room?

The hearts of countless villains speculated on the belly of Grandpa Qin's gentleman, and immediately there were more angry snorts around.

Qin Kan calmly met everyone's ambiguous gazes, although there was a faint urge in his heart to let them line up and fan them in the face with the soles of his shoes, but his expression was still very calm.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke, and Yang Tinghe broke the silence and said with a smile: "Miss Tang's name as a miracle doctor has been heard of by Jingshi, and the old man has also heard it, presumably the medical skills must not be bad, and besides, it is Grandpa Qin's...... Ahem, there is a Lao girl who enters the leopard room to diagnose His Majesty, if she can wake up His Majesty, it will be a great achievement. ”

After saying that, Yang Tinghe ordered someone to recruit a eunuch, at this time, the favored Seven Tigers of the Inner Palace all gathered in front of Zhu Houzhao's couch, and the eunuch guarding the door of the leopard room was tight, Yang Tinghe explained Tang Zihe's identity to this eunuch, the eunuch's slightly arrogant expression suddenly became like a spring breeze, and his eyes looked at Tang Zihe like a loyal dog looking at his master, and he glanced at Qin Kan from time to time, for fear of offending the true god who was red and purple in front of His Majesty.

Tang Zihe's expression has always been very flat, and entering the leopard room is like entering his own house.

When passing by Qin Kan, Tang Zihe understood the worry in Qin Kan's eyes at a glance, and stopped and smiled at him: "Don't worry, I am a doctor who saves people, and I will do my best, in short...... It won't be worse than it is now. ”

This sentence was so vague that only Qin Kan could understand it, and Qin Kan also smiled when he heard this, and finally let go of his hanging heart.

She knew what he was worried about, so a word relieved his heart.

Qin Kan did not forget that this goddess doctor who took care of Zhu Hou's illness was a female rebel who dominated the three provinces with 100,000 elite soldiers ten years ago and vowed to seize Zhu Houzhao......

Now, at this moment, this female thief actually wants to treat the emperor......

Although Tang Zihe had vaguely stated that he would not take Zhu Hou in any way, Qin Kan still couldn't help but want to ambush five hundred sword and axe men outside the leopard room......

…………

…………

Tang Zihe entered the leopard room, and Long Erzhi, a famous doctor in Beijing who was dragged out of the bed by Jinyiwei, couldn't help but say that he was sent to the leopard room, and together with the imperial doctors of the Tai Hospital, they took turns to consult Zhu Houzhao's pulse. There was a lot of noise and shouting in the main hall of the leopard room, Zhang Yonggu Dayong and the others were so pale and anxious that they wanted to persuade but didn't know who to favor, and the chaos in the hall became a pot of porridge.

The ministers who were guarding outside the leopard room did not stop, gathering in twos and threes to discuss in a low voice, and the courtiers were divided into three factions, one was called an optimistic faction, always thinking that Zhu Houzhao was just an ordinary drowning, fainting in a hurry, and it would not take long to wake up naturally. The second is called pessimism. The doctors still couldn't wake up after a few tricks, obviously the condition was extremely critical, and another day was just around the corner, and there was also a faction that was the most common wall grass. It doesn't matter which way the wind blows. Still standing on the sidelines.

Qin Kan stood quietly outside the leopard room like everyone else. After discussing with Yang Tinghe and others, everyone couldn't come up with the charter after all, so they could only wait for the results of the consultation between the imperial doctors and the famous doctors. and sent people into the palace to report to the two old empress dowagers and Queen Xia, and ordered to block the news to the outside world, and no one was allowed to spread the news of Zhu Houzhao's fall into the water.

Quietly staring at the two dark and secluded closed doors of the leopard room, Qin Kan pursed his lips, but his mood became more and more chaotic, and an uneasy emotion suddenly hit his heart.

Emperor Zhengde in history is indeed sick because of falling into the water, and died in middle age after the most Lu, thinking that his arrival has changed the world of the world, what should happen may not happen, but after all, people are not as good as heaven, some things have changed, and some things are still happening according to the original trajectory, even if the emperor and the prince can hold the life and death of all creatures in the world, but they can never win the will of heaven......

The most powerful and best friend was lying unconscious in the luxurious and cold palace inside, and he could only silently wait for news outside the gate of the palace, in front of God, Gui Weiguo is still so small, since he stepped into the officialdom for more than ten years, Qin Kan has never been so helpless as he is at this moment today.

Confused, Qin Kan felt that his sleeve was gently pulled twice, and when he looked back, it was Ding Shun.

Ding Shun cautiously swept around, leaned into Qin Kan's ear and lowered his voice: "Grandpa, at this time, the doctors are treating His Majesty to see the disease, I am afraid that it will be fruitless for a while, Grandpa is waiting here in vain, it is better to take a walk around......

Looking at Ding Shun's sneaky appearance, Qin Kan frowned: "Ding Shun, I'm in a bad mood right now, if you have anything to say, it's best to say it directly, don't touch my moldy head." ”

Ding Shun hurriedly said: "Grandpa, several adults are waiting in the pavilion on the east side of Xihua Pond, please ask Grandpa to move and discuss something." ”

Qin Kan glanced back at the door of the leopard room and said lightly, "Lead the way." ”

Xihua Pond is in front of the leopard room, the pavilion on the east side was originally a place for visitors to play in spring, and later Zhu Houzhao decided to build the leopard room on the side of Xihua Pond, the pavilion has also become a forbidden place, day and night guarded by the four guards of Tengxiang, idlers are not allowed to approach, here is the forbidden area outside the leopard room, Zhu Houzhao rarely plays on weekdays, outsiders can not enter, a good pavilion will be barren from then on.

Qin Kan followed Ding Shun slowly, and after a half-mile detour along the Xihua Pond Hidden Forest Sheep Intestine Path, he finally walked to the pavilion.

Ding Shun, Li Er, Chang Feng and others led Qin Kan's most trusted old Nanjing department to guard the surroundings, surrounded the pavilion, everyone looked solemn and guarded with their knives, and when they saw Qin Kan coming, all the old departments bowed down and retreated to make way for a way.

There have already been more than a dozen ministers gathered in the pavilion, all of whom are old acquaintances and hardcore Qin Party backbones, including Mu Bin, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Yang Tinghe, a scholar, Yang Yiqing, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Yan Song, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and others, as well as a nobleman who was quite unexpected by Qin, and it turned out to be Zhu Hui, the Duke of Baoguo.

It is inevitable to form a gang in the court, more than ten years of hard work, Qin Kan's current power can be described as covering the sky with one hand, and his power is only stronger than Liu Jin back then, the difference is that Qin Kan knows that he is forbearant and low-key, and he is not arrogant and arrogant as soon as he is in power like Liu Jin, and several hardcore Qin parties are a group of gentlemen who are as light as water as a faction both openly and secretly, and no one has ever thought that these important ministers in the court who can shake the world by stomping their feet have become the political allies of Ning Guogong.

As for this old man Zhu of Baoguo, it is a little special, thanks to Qin Kan's efforts to lead the inner palace and the Jingshi Xungui to jointly fund the maritime trade, many nobles in Beijing and Qin Kan because of their interests and twisted into a rope, Zhu is one of them, in the past ten years, the treasury of the Baoguo Mansion has increased many times, although the old man is a little displeased with Qin Kan, but he has no enmity with the silver, so unconsciously, the old man Zhu has also become a member of the Qin Party.

I saw Qin Kan walking into the pavilion. Everyone got up and bowed their hands, Zhu Hui leaned on the old man and nodded with a pair of elders, Qin Kan didn't care, and still humbly returned the salute one by one.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is a change in the palace today, and at this time, the life and death of His Majesty are unknown, so you invite Qin to come here to ......"

Everyone in the pavilion looked at each other, and their expressions were a little weird.

Finally, Yan Song, who was the closest to Qin Kan and had the best relationship, took the lead in opening his mouth on behalf of everyone.

"Grandpa Qin. I'm waiting to invite my grandfather here. There is something important to discuss. ”

Qin Kan seemed to be aware, but said quietly and lightly: "But Zhong said." ”

Yan Song lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and after organizing his words, he said cautiously: "Your Majesty accidentally drowned today. Xia Guan and the adults saw that the doctors of the Tai Hospital frequently entered and exited the leopard room. His face became more and more ugly. After guessing in vain, Xia Guan and the others felt ...... Felt ......"

Qin Kan's voice became calmer and calmer: "What do you think?" ”

"Grandpa, although we and other scholars worship Confucius and Mencius. But also dabbled in hundreds of schools, and also had contact with medical books, from the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", "Shennong's Materia Medica", "Qianjin Fang", to the "Imperial Materia Medica" compiled by Liu Jing, the father of Liu Wentai, the hospital judge of this Chaotai Hospital, I have read through them one by one, and there are some judgments on ordinary pathological diseases, ordinary drowning people, if they can be rescued within dozens of breaths, squeezing the hydrocephalus to make them choke and cough, people are fine, but drowning for too long, only sound after rescue, but the mind does not wake up, then ...... then ......"

"So what?"

Yan Song gritted his teeth and said, "Then ...... Everything points to disaster! ”

After Yan Song finished speaking, there was a deathly silence in the pavilion, and even the temperature around seemed to drop a lot, and a suffocating aura permeated everyone's heads.

Only frogs and insects can be heard around the pavilion, and the subtle and chaotic sounds set off the atmosphere in the pavilion more and more dreary and gloomy.

I don't know how long it took, Qin Kan squeezed out a smile and said, "What do you want to say?" ”

Yan Song didn't dare to speak, he knew very well how deep the friendship between Qin Kan and Zhu Houzhao was, and his next words were undoubtedly challenging Qin Kan's psychological bottom line, this grandfather had not been angry for many years, but everyone knew how serious the consequences would be once he started a fire.

In the end, Yang Tinghe couldn't help but speak.

"Grandpa Qin, the old man is the teacher of His Majesty, His Majesty is drowning, his life is in danger, the old man is more heartbroken than you, but we are all important weapons of the country, no matter how heartache, some things have to be faced, if the doctors rejuvenate tonight to wake up His Majesty, it is God's luck, His Majesty is safe to pass this catastrophe, however, if His Majesty can't wake up tonight, Grandpa Qin, where will the Ming Sheji go, who will inherit the throne, how can the situation between the DPRK and China be stable, and how can the palace and the outer court be pacified, We can't wait until we come up with a charter, otherwise if there is really an unspeakable bad faith, won't the court and the world be in chaos? ”

Knowing that what Yang Tinghe said was Lao Cheng's words to seek the country, everything was reasonable, but Qin Kan still couldn't help but be angry.

"Your Majesty is still talking, people are not dead, you ...... Are you in such a hurry to send His Majesty to the end? ”

Everyone was startled and hurriedly stood up and misunderstood.

Yang Tinghe was also angry: "The old man and the old man Zhu are already old ministers of the four dynasties, every time the emperor is dying, the bell and drum tower of the palace rings the bell and gathers the ministers, discusses the emperor's future affairs together, and checks the emperor's edict, this is not disobedience, but the righteousness of the ministers, why does Grandpa Qin slander me so much?" ”

Qin Kan glared at Yang Tinghe and said coldly: "Your Majesty is less than thirty years old, and it is the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, but he has not woken up from drowning, how can he say that he is 'dying'?" If your majesty wakes up tomorrow, what will you see when you see your majesty? ”

*******************************************************************

Inside the main hall of the leopard room.

Zhu Houzhao was dressed in a bright yellow soft silk shirt, lying quietly on the bed with his eyes closed, his face was as pale as paper, and only the slight ups and downs of his chest from time to time could he see that he was a living person.

Liu Liangnu sat on the edge of the bed with her hair messy, staring at Zhu Houzhao with tears on her face, her eyes full of unconcealed sorrow and pain.

The bed was surrounded by imperial doctors, including Tang Zihe and Long Erzhi, a famous doctor in the market.

Liu Wentai was judged to be old by the Tai Hospital, his pale hair became more and more withered and sparse under the dim palace lamp, but his face was as gloomy as the frost of midwinter, and his eyes that were holding back anger swept from Long Erzhi's body from time to time, very unkind, anyway, there was absolutely no intention to greet him.

Long Erzhi was full of depression, and he knew the meaning of Liu Wentai's gaze.

The illness of the emperor and the nobles in the palace was originally the work of the imperial doctors, no matter how exquisite the craftsmanship of the doctors in the market was, and the identity was several streets away from the imperial doctors, but today His Majesty drowned and did not wake up, but Ning Guogong and the ministers of the outer court invited the two doctors in the market to come for consultation, which was clearly a contempt and distrust of the imperial hospital, this fact made the imperial doctors extremely embarrassed and angry, and the meaning of Liu Wentai's gaze that seemed to eat people was obvious.

Long Erzhi can't say that he has suffering, do you think it's a very glorious thing to treat the nobles in the palace, especially the emperor? This is playing with his own head, the risk is simply countless times higher than the rebellious Xiangma, the slightest poor diagnosis is the end of the Nine Clans, if it weren't for the rough men of Jinyiwei who couldn't help but say that they would tie him up, and kill him, they wouldn't take the initiative to approach the leopard room for half a step.

However, Tang Zihe, the goddess doctor of the Beijing Master who has been in the limelight in recent years, has a very indifferent expression, neither sad nor happy, fearless and fearless, and the imperial doctors and Long Erzhi respectively gave Zhu Hou the pulse of the pulse, and it was Tang Zihe's turn to be the last.

Tang Zihe did not shy away from the difference between men and women, neither ordered anyone to pull the curtain, nor did he ask people to hang the silk, but generously put three slender jade fingers on Zhu Houzhao's wrist, closed his eyes and was silent.

Everyone stared silently at Tang Zihe's peerless beautiful face, quietly waiting for her pulse.

The process of Tang Zihe's pulse was very slow, he was not in a hurry from beginning to end, and he completely ignored Liu Wentai's unkind gaze, but inadvertently met Liu Wentai's gaze, but Liu Wentai moved his gaze away in a little panic.

Liu Wentai has been a court judge for half his life, and the officialdom can be regarded as a mixture of many experiences, in the land of the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger in Beijing, some people can be offended, but some people can never be offended, such as the stunning aunt and grandmother in front of her, she belongs to the kind of person who can never be offended, even if she spits on her face, she can only smile and spit on herself.

The girl is not terrible, but the girl's man is terrible, that lord is powerful, and a casual sneeze can make him irreversible, Liu Wentai dares to look at Long Erzhi and eyebrows, but he never dares to have a slight color on Tang Zihe.

I don't know how long it took, Tang Zihe's snow-white jade fingers like onions slowly moved away from Zhu Houzhao's wrist, and then unceremoniously opened Zhu Houzhao's two eyelids, looked at his pupils and congestion, and finally made a move that made the imperial doctors jaw-dropping, she held Zhu Houzhao's chin with one hand, and the fingers of the other hand were directly inserted into Zhu Houzhao's mouth, and with a slight force, the dragon's mouth was pried open, and a eunuch was ordered to approach with a palace lamp, Tang Zihe squinted and carefully looked at Zhu Houzhao's tongue.

After the procedure was completed, Tang Zihe withdrew his hand with satisfaction, and took a half step back, no one noticed that Tang Zihe's eyes flashed with a complicated look of enlightenment. (To be continued......)
