Chapter 103: Five Days
"The Empress Dowager, the ministers are incompetent, the ministers are incompetent."
The two imperial doctors knelt at the feet of the Empress Dowager and kowtowed like pounded garlic.
"You're incompetent? Well, tell the mourners how incompetent. The Empress Dowager was pleasant, but her eyes did not look at them, but looked at the new nail sets on her fingers, which were inlaid with red sapphires and pearls, so exquisite that they did not look like things in the world.
"Banzai is seriously ill, the minister's treatment is ineffective, and Banzai is still suffering from illness, this is the fault of the minister, and the minister's incompetence." The two imperial doctors didn't dare to raise their heads and kowtowed.
"Then according to what you said, the emperor's illness is that the medicine stone is ineffective?" The Empress Dowager narrowed her phoenix eyes lightly, and finally looked at the two people kneeling on the ground.
"Long live is the true dragon son of heaven, the ministers dare not speak falsely, and ask the queen mother to forgive the sins, and the ministers are willing to look for divine doctors and heal for long live." The doctors said.
"So how many days will the emperor's illness be cured?" The Empress Dowager asked how many days the emperor's illness would be cured, but she did not ask the miracle doctor how many days he could find it.
The two imperial doctors were stunned, they originally wanted to push this messenger to others by looking for a miracle doctor, but they didn't expect the empress dowager to answer their words at all, and only asked how many days they could cure the emperor's illness.
Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down their foreheads and onto the gold-bricked floor on top of them.
"Ten days." A physician said in a trembling voice.
"Ten days, isn't that the emperor going to celebrate the New Year on the sickbed? No way. The Empress Dowager said coldly.
"Five days." Another imperial doctor spoke timidly, his clothes were already soaked with sweat in the cold winter. Five days later, it was the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, and when it was cured, the emperor could still preside over the ancestor worship of the Chinese New Year's Eve and the great pilgrimage meeting on the first day of the new year, although he was just a decoration, but it was better to have this decoration than nothing.
"Five days, okay, it's rare for you to know the general situation so well, then five days", the Empress Dowager's voice was even gentler, "When the five days are over, if the emperor's dragon body fails to heal, then you can take the whole family to the imperial tomb to wait for the Holy Ancestor Emperor." ”
"The ministers thanked the Empress Dowager, and the ministers retired."
The two doctors got up, one of them had a weak calf and fell to the ground before he could stand up, and the other hurriedly helped him up, and the two retreated in a panic.
The Empress Dowager looked at their departing figures and said coldly: "Pretending to be sick? Want to die? Dream! ”
The two imperial doctors withdrew from Chaoyang Palace, and one of them wiped the sweat on his head with his sleeve and breathed a long sigh of relief: "I'm scared to death, it's okay, the empress dowager didn't say that she would give me the capital crime, but just let me guard the imperial mausoleum, that's okay, I'm relaxed, I don't have to worry about these things anymore." ”
"Do you think it's a good thing to guard the Emperor's Mausoleum? In addition to the clan whose blood is thicker than water and the generals who hold heavy troops, the only ones who can go to the imperial tomb to serve the first emperor are the palace women and eunuchs, do you want you and your nephews to ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was covered by someone: "Don't say it, are you trying to scare me to death?" ”
It's okay to be scared to death, but they can't be scared to death, so they can only hold on.
"Now we can only go and ask Your Majesty, ask Your Majesty for mercy, and the dragon body will heal within five days."
His Majesty was not sick in the first place, but he still pretended to be sick, and let them declare to the public that the dragon was sick and could not go to the court, and could not go to the Empress Dowager to ask for peace.
In the Chengqian Palace, the emperor was curled up on the Luohan couch, he was already fourteen years old, but he was thinner than children of the same age, and he looked only eleven or twelve years old.
His father, the first prince, was frail and sickly since he was a child, lingering on the sickbed, and the heir was not easy, and the crown princess gave birth to him with great difficulty. When he was a child, he was used to seeing his father sick, so he learned a lot about it.
But no matter how similar he learned, he couldn't hide it from the imperial doctor, but fortunately, these two imperial doctors were very obedient, and they never disobeyed what he asked them to say.
"You're back? What the imperial grandmother has said, you tell me word by word, and you can't miss a word. The young man on the Luohan couch sat up, his eyebrows picturesque, but only slightly pale.
"Your Majesty, please save Wechen, if Your Majesty's illness still can't be cured, Wechen's family will be sent to guard the Emperor's Mausoleum, and then Wechen will no longer be able to serve Your Majesty, and other people from the hospital will come over, Wechen is not at ease, Your Majesty!"
The two imperial doctors wept bitterly and repeated every word that the Empress Dowager had said in Chaoyang Palace today.
In the eyes of outsiders, they are imperial doctors, people who walk in the harem and serve the Son of Heaven, but in this palace, they are just small people, little people like ants.
The emperor's face turned from pale to gray, and his almost transparent fingers grasped the dragon brocade mattress on the Luohan chair.
"Five days? Do I only have five days? He muttered to himself.
"The ministers have done everything they have learned to keep Your Majesty healthy." The emperor was not sick in the first place, as long as he stopped pretending to be sick, then of course he was healthy.
The emperor looked at them for a long time, and waved his hand dejectedly: "Kneel down." ”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, save Weichen and his family."
"Your Majesty, Weichen's loyalty can be expressed."
......
The two imperial physicians finally withdrew, and their cries still lingered in the emperor's ears.
They are really afraid, who is not afraid, he is also afraid, he is more afraid than everyone else.
"Kyozawa, Kyozawa!" The Emperor shouted.
Jing Ze, the chief eunuch of Chengqian Palace, heard the sound, he was in the palace, and all the words of the imperial doctor heard it.
"Jing Ze, what should I do, what should I do!" The emperor wept bitterly.
"Your Majesty, it's not a matter of pretending to be sick all the time, so it's better to take this opportunity to recover." Jing Ze said that he did not agree with the emperor pretending to be sick, but the emperor refused to listen to what he said, and insisted on pretending to be sick in order to avoid confronting the empress dowager head-on.
"But the Imperial Grandmother will turn me into the living dead, and she has already killed all the people who did the tricks and feet on the pot that day......" Before the Emperor could finish his words, he was interrupted by his own sobs.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, the Empress Dowager will not treat Your Majesty like those people, you are the grandson of her old man, and she is the only grandson of her old man." Kyozawa comforted.
"But she will turn me into a living dead, and let me be used by her like a puppet, she didn't want me to be in charge of the government in the first place, and now she won't, no matter how many folds the military officials make, she won't agree." The emperor was tired from crying and fell on the bed of the Arhat.
"Your Majesty, why don't you let the slave go to that one." Kyozawa said.
"No, the last time I didn't listen to him, he doesn't trust me anymore, he must be worried that I'll drag him into the water." The little emperor wiped away his tears, and after he asked Jing Ze to tell the man about the plan, the man immediately stopped him, but he did it anyway, and it was very successful, but just when he was complacent, the empress dowager sent two heads.
He's finished, he's really finished.
