"The emperor fainted...... Imperial Doctor, hurry up and announce Imperial Doctor! Wen Yongju's eyes widened, sweating profusely in panic, and he commanded a few brocade guards.

Mrs. Chu hurriedly said, "The envoy of the Huang Yuan of the Tai Hospital is still in the mansion...... Shuxiang, you hurry up and invite the envoy of the Yellow Academy. ”

"That's right! Huang Yuan envoy, please ask the Huang Yuan envoy to come over and show the emperor! Wen Yongju nodded again and again.

Wen Yongju said as he walked into the house quickly, and the two brocade guards followed him in.

The air in the room was dreary, and the smell of medicine mixed with incense penetrated the tip of Wen Yongju's nose.

He frowned, walked quickly around the five screens of the rosewood seat, and saw the old lady Chu sleeping on the couch with her eyes closed on a thin quilt, and the emperor leaning on the Taishi chair on the side, also with his eyes closed, his hands hanging weakly, obviously fainting.

The second master of Chu supported the fainting emperor on the side and prevented him from falling.

"Your Majesty! The emperor ......" Wen Yongju stepped forward quickly, rudely squeezed away the second master of Chu, raised his hand to test the emperor's snort, felt that the emperor was still breathing, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father-in-law Wen, do you want to go back to the palace to find someone to pick up the emperor?" Mrs. Chu asked worriedly.

Wen Yongju was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashing slightly.

The emperor's fainting is a major event in the past, and it stands to reason that Wen Yongju should have sent someone back to the palace to inform the queen, but once he sent someone back to the palace to summon the news, it means that the news will inevitably reach Cen Yin's ears, and I am afraid that it will not be his turn here......

"There is our family's own business here," Wen Yongju said as he stepped forward, walked up to Mrs. Chu, and asked in a cold voice, "Mrs. Chu, you tell our family first, why did the emperor suddenly faint?" ”

Wen Yongju's face was gloomy as if a layer of clouds were shrouded, and his eyes were cold.

Mrs. Chu sighed deeply with her eyebrows, and said, "Grandpa Wen, the emperor and the prince of the country get along, and when I saw the prince of the country, I was anxious for a while, and I was in a hurry, so I ...... He fainted. ”

Wen Yongju frowned, looked at the emperor, and then looked at the old lady Chu on the couch, he didn't believe Mrs. Chu's words at all, and said secretly: The monarch and the minister are fart!

Of course, he knew how much the emperor wanted Xuan Guogong to die.

Wen Yongju squinted at the pale Mrs. Chu and asked again, "Mrs. Chu, what did your Guogong Mansion do?!" Say, did you assassinate the emperor?! ”

The more Wen Yongju spoke, the more he felt that it was possible, and ordered to the two brocade guards: "Quick! Hurry up and take control of this country!! ”

Mrs. Chu snorted coldly: "Gonggong Wen, in what capacity are you in charge here?" ”

Wen Yongju ignored Mrs. Chu and continued to instruct Jinyiwei: "Deputy Commander Qian, you go and transfer more Jinyiwei over to seal the Guogong Mansion for our family." ”

The deputy commander of Jinyiwei made Qian Yibin not move at all, glanced at Wen Yongju lightly, and ordered to his subordinates: "Wang Jie, you hurry back and report to the overseer." ”

"Yes, Deputy Commander." The royal order took the order and departed.

Wen Yongju seemed to have been slapped in the face, and when Cen Yin came, he would definitely be pushed aside again, and there would be nothing to do here!

"Wang Jie, stop!" Wen Yongju's face turned pale, and he shouted at the top of his voice.

However, the steps under Wang Jie's feet didn't even stop, and he didn't even look back at Wen Yongju, he strode out of the room and left in a hurry.

Wen Yongju's face was even more ugly, his hands clenched at his sides, trembling slightly. If the Imperial Horse Supervisor is in his hands, where can he still tolerate this deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard to be rude to him!

Wen Yongju's eyes were half-drooping, covering the haze under his eyes.

"Mrs. Chu," Qian Yibin politely arched his hand at Mrs. Chu, "Before the overseer comes, please also ask the people of the Guogong Mansion not to move around." ”

Although Qian Yibin's tone was polite, there was a hint of suspicion in his expression.

Suspicion is suspicion, but Qian Yibin didn't plan to listen to Wen Yongju's call, and planned to wait for Cen Yin to arrive before making plans.

"Deputy Commander Qian, the old man will order to go down." Mrs. Chu bowed her head, and then proposed, "Why don't you help the emperor to lie down in the west first?" ”

So, Qian Yibin and the second master of Chu worked together to help the unconscious emperor out of the bedroom, and under the guidance of Mrs. Chu, he was helped to lie down on the beauty couch in the west room.

The Emperor remained motionless and showed no sign of sobriety.

As soon as the people were settled, there was a messy footstep sound in the distance outside the house, which was mixed with the voice of the maid: "Huang Yuan envoy, go this way, the emperor is inside!" ”

The footsteps outside the house approached, and so did the rapid wheezing.

The envoy of the Huang Yuan, dressed in a azure robe, walked into the house with the fragrance of the book in three steps and two steps, sweating profusely, looking panicked, and his face was so pale that people were really worried that he would faint in the next moment.

Wen Yongju only thought that the envoy of the Yellow Court was watching out for the emperor, and hurriedly said: "The envoy of the Yellow Academy, you should show the emperor quickly!" ”

The others gave up the position in front of the beauty's couch to the envoy of the Huang Yuan, and the maid quickly brought him a small pestle.

The envoy of the Huang Yuan began to probe the emperor's pulse, and the others around him were silent, all looking at the emperor with burning eyes, especially Wen Yongju and Qian Yibin.

After all, the emperor followed the two of them out of the palace, if there was really a case, not to mention that the Xuanguo Mansion would be to blame, and the two of them would also be involved.

The room fell silent, the cinnamon branches outside the window swayed in the wind, and the rich cinnamon fragrance was blown in, filling the air, with a dull and oppressive feeling.

Time seems to have slowed down a lot.

The sweat on the forehead of the Yellow Court became more dense, Wen Yongju endured and endured, and couldn't help asking: "Huang Yuan envoy, how is the emperor?" ”

"The old man is now here to give the emperor an injection."

The envoy of the Huang Yuan answered the question, took a silver needle bag from Shuxiang's hand, skillfully applied needles to the emperor, and then opened a prescription, Shuxiang and Minghe gave him a hand on the side, busy.

Unconsciously, Wen Yongju and Qian Yibin were squeezed near the door curtain.

The maid went down to decoct the emperor, and the emperor lying on the beauty couch was covered with silver needles like a hedgehog, his eyes were closed, his breathing was slow, and he had not woken up yet.

Moon Young focused and restlessly walked back and forth near the door curtain.

Before the decoction was cooked, Cen Yin arrived with a group of factory guards.

When Cen Yin, who was dressed in a red unicorn robe, entered the house, the air in the room immediately became cold.

The flowers and trees outside the window are still swaying in the wind, and the swaying mottled shadows of the trees reflect the flickering light in the room.

"Overseer!" Qian Yibin hurriedly greeted him and saluted respectfully, at this moment, the heart hanging in mid-air finally let go and breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Lord Cen comes, everything will be fine.

The envoy of the Yellow Courtyard, who had been serving at the emperor's couch, hurriedly stood up, and saluted Cen Yin in a trance: "Lord Cen Governor." ”

Wen Yongju was completely ignored, his eyes stared gloomily at Cen Yin, and the voice of the Yellow Courtyard envoy trembled slightly in his ears: "Emperor...... The emperor had a stroke. ”

What the?! Wen Yongju's eyes were slightly dumbfounded, his heart plummeted, and he only felt that his limbs were cold.

In fact, Wen Yongju was also worried about whether the emperor had a stroke when he was waiting, after all, the emperor had had a stroke before, and the imperial doctors had already warned the emperor to pay attention to the dragon body, the stroke was easy to recur, and this problem could be mild or serious, and the light ones would just lie down for a few days to recuperate like last time; The heavier one may have been unconscious ever since......

Wen Yongju didn't dare to think about it anymore, so he could only pray that the emperor, the true dragon son of heaven, had his own heavenly appearance.

Cen Yin said "um", raised his eyes and looked at the emperor on the beauty couch, staring directly at the unconscious emperor, a strange light flashed in his long and narrow eyes, which was faintly visible.

The envoy of the Huang Yuan secretly glanced at Cen Yin, his face turned even paler, and a chill arose in his heart, and his head immediately lowered.

Cen Yin's gaze stayed on the emperor for a few breaths, as if he was groaning and worrying, and then ordered: "Qian Yibin, send the emperor back to the ......palace immediately," he said, his cold gaze turned to the Huang Yuan envoy again, "Huang Yuan envoy, you also drive back to the palace with you." ”

"Yes, Lord Cen Governor." The envoy of the Yellow Court hurriedly received the order.

Cen Yin gave an order, Jinyiwei and the people of Dongchang all took action, and used a sedan chair to send the unconscious emperor to the carriage at the Yimen, and then the gate of the Guogong Mansion opened again, and the carriage and dozens of people, including Cen Yin, left in a majestic manner.

From Cen Yin's arrival at the Guogong Mansion to his departure, it was less than two teas, and the noisy Guogong Mansion quieted down.

And the palace exploded.

By the time the emperor was sent back to the Heart Cultivation Palace, five or six imperial doctors were already on standby in the Heart Cultivation Hall to consult the emperor together.

The queen also hurried over with the four princes, Duanmu Guifei and a group of concubines, but most of these concubines were stopped in the main hall outside, and only the queen was welcomed into the palace.

The imperial physicians, including the envoys of the Yellow Court, gathered to discuss the emperor's illness.

A gray-haired imperial physician with a goatee stroked his beard and said with a slight hesitation: "Huang Yuan, Imperial Doctor Zhang...... I think the emperor looks at the ......"

"Stroke." The envoy of the Huang Yuan immediately interrupted him, "This is clearly the pulse of the stroke." ”

"That's right, a stroke. The thin white tongue coating and the floating pulse are indeed symptoms of stroke. Imperial Physician Zhang bowed his head again and again, looking like he was looking at the head of the horse from the Yellow Courtyard.

Two or three other imperial physicians nodded one after another, and the remaining imperial physicians secretly exchanged glances, showing hesitation on their faces, and simply did not speak.

There are many secrets in the palace, they are too doctors, and if they want to save their lives, the most important thing is not to see a doctor, but to learn to look at the situation, seek good fortune and avoid evil, otherwise even if the cat has nine lives, it is not enough to cut off the head.

Everyone looked at each other with different thoughts.

Seeing that the queen had arrived, several imperial doctors hurriedly saluted the queen, and then the envoy of the Huang Yuan was the representative of the queen and said:

"Queen Mother, the emperor suffered from a stroke and has not woken up yet."

As he spoke, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door curtain, as well as the voices of the palace maids saluting: "I have seen Lord Duanmu, Lord You, Lord Lin......

Several cabinet ministers also rushed to hear the news.

The queen turned around and glanced in the direction of the door curtain, her eyes flashed slightly, and told the envoy of the Yellow Court to take good care of the emperor here, and she turned around and went out of the palace.

Duanmuxian, You Junji and others in the main hall hurriedly stepped forward to salute the queen, and Duanmuxian asked worriedly: "Queen Mother, ...... the emperor?"

The hall was noisy and noisy, and most of the concubines and princesses were disgraced and frightened.

The queen raised her hand to signal Duanmu Xian to silence herself, and then raised her eyes to look around for half a circle, and the concubines and princesses fell silent.

The queen's eyes condensed slightly, straightened her waist and posed with the majesty of a country, and instructed Mama Jin: "Let Duanmu Guifei, Jiangning Concubine and a few princesses go back, the emperor should recuperate." ”

The queen is the master of the harem, since she said so, Rao is concubines are reluctant, and they can only retire step by step.

After they withdrew, the main hall suddenly became much empty.

The queen sat down on the seat of the head with the support of the palace maid, with a dignified and solemn expression, and then said: "The emperor, he has a stroke." ”

When several cabinet ministers heard this, their faces instantly became more solemn.

They weren't just worried about the emperor's dragon body, but—

What should the government do?!

If the emperor is sick, someone must supervise the court!

But now that the eldest prince is still in the south, the second prince colluded with Wei Yongxin and was imprisoned, and the third prince is bent on Beiyan, and there is no suitable candidate among the adult princes.

Several cabinet ministers exchanged glances quickly, as if they had pressed a boulder in their hearts.

Hey, Dasheng was already in danger, and the emperor's illness at this time made it even worse!

Duanmu Xian sighed secretly in his heart, he was the first assistant, and he could only speak: "Queen Mother, the country cannot be without a monarch for a day, and the government is busy during this time......"

The queen already had an idea in her heart, and immediately said: "According to the palace, it is better to let the four princes supervise the dynasty, and ask a few adults to help the four princes." ”

The queen clenched the handkerchief in her hand, and her eyes were shining.

The fourth prince is young, but now the three royal brothers in front of him are not available...... This time, it's a great opportunity for the Four Princes!

Since the last time the emperor had a stroke, the queen has inquired with the imperial doctor, knowing that if this stroke is committed again, there is a chance that it will be more serious than the last time, looking at the worried appearance of the imperial doctors in the hospital, I am afraid that the emperor will not be able to wake up this time, if the four princes can successfully supervise the court, it means that there will be a chance to reign in the world in the future!

She definitely can't miss this opportunity!

Duanmuxian and several other cabinet ministers looked at each other again, their eyes were complicated, and there were emotions such as understanding, sighing, worried, and not daring to be equal.

They knew the queen's selfishness by thinking about it with their toes, but the problem was-

"Queen Mother, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is still young." Duanmu Xian stubbornly said to the queen.

is not only young, but also the fourth prince Mu Youyi is mediocre, and if he can't make it like an emperor, he will cause trouble for them.

"Queen Mother, what Lord Duanmu said," the official Shangshu You Jun Ji echoed, "His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is too young, and he has not experienced anything, and now Dasheng is stormy, there is a disaster in the south, there is a Northern Yan in the north, there are rebels in various places from time to time, and the people are in turmoil...... I am afraid that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince will not be able to take on a big responsibility. ”

The two cabinet ministers said this, and the queen did not know.

But people are selfish, such a good opportunity to miss this time, but there will be no next time, in case the big prince comes back after hearing the news, with Duanmuxian as a backer, will it be the turn of the four princes? !

The queen's face sank like water, squinting at Duanmu Xian, did Duanmu Xian think about calling the eldest prince back in an expedited manner of eight hundred miles?!

The queen's eyes became deeper and deeper, and in the face of several cabinet ministers, she did not flinch, and said: "Lord Duanmu, Lord You, if you don't let the four princes supervise the dynasty, which prince can you choose?" The queen deliberately looked around at the ministers, "Could it be that the three princes want to be in power?" ”

The queen knew that the courtiers were quite dissatisfied with the three princes' Yan slaves to the north, so she deliberately asked.

Several cabinet ministers looked at each other in disapproval.

The third prince must be difficult to take on the big responsibility, if he is in charge of the dynasty, they are really afraid that he will cede half of Dasheng to Beiyan......

The hall was quiet for a few breaths, and Lord Shang Shulin of the Ministry of Industry said loudly: "Queen Mother, Your Royal Highness the Third Prince is not appropriate. ”

"The second prince was imprisoned by the emperor, and the palace thought it would be difficult to take on a big responsibility." The queen said lightly, deliberately not mentioning the eldest prince, "Although the fourth prince is young, he is talented and intelligent, as long as a few adults are willing to assist well, what can he not afford!" ”

Duanmu Xian's eyebrows were furrowed, and the queen's words clearly meant that if the four princes couldn't afford it, it was because they were unwilling to assist well.

The atmosphere was slightly stiff, and there were faint sparks in the air.

The queen was reluctant to retreat, and several cabinet ministers were reluctant to retreat.

At this moment, the Xiangfei curtain leading to the dormitory was raised from the other side, and a big red figure walked out from inside.

The little chamberlain guarding the curtain hurriedly saluted: "Overseer." ”

This call was neither light nor heavy, but it shook the hall for a while, and everyone, including the queen, looked in the direction of Cen Yin in unison.

Cen Yin walked unhurriedly towards the crowd, strolling leisurely, in stark contrast to the tension of the others, as if even time had been slowed down.

The queen looked at Cen Yin fixedly, her eyes sparkling, and her thoughts racing.

"The Queen." Cen Yin bowed to the queen above.

The queen squinted, and immediately made a decision in her heart, and said: "Lord Cen Governor, the emperor can't afford to be ill, but the country can't be without a king for a day, this palace wants to ask Lord Cen to assist the four princes to supervise the dynasty, what does Lord Cen think?" ”

Several cabinet ministers did not expect the queen to make such a proposal at all, and they all hesitated.

With Cen Yin's assistance, the four princes will naturally be able to take charge of the government.

However, once a prince governs on behalf of the monarch at this time, then there is a chance that he will be the future emperor, and they will decide the future crown prince for the emperor at this time?!

The fourth prince is still young, and his character is not yet obvious, for example, the second prince and the third prince used to look at a gentle and elegant and a polite corporal, but what is the result? !

What's more, the eldest prince is still in the south!

For the sake of Dasheng's safety, the eldest prince has been guarding the southern border for more than two years, and his character is far from being comparable to the second prince and the third prince!

Duanmu Xian frowned, feeling that the queen's wishful thinking was really good.

Duanmu Xian was about to say something, but Cen Yin had already spoken one step ahead of him:

"From now on, this seat will supervise the court."

Cen Yin smiled indifferently and spoke slowly, as if announcing an insignificant matter.

His gaze swept lightly over Duanmu Xian and the others, calm and relaxed.

On weekdays, for the sake of government affairs, these cabinet ministers present naturally have a lot of contacts with Cen Yin, of course, they know that Cen Yin has always said the same, and there is no room for bargaining.

Since Cen Yin said so, it is the final word.

The hall was silent.

Duanmuxian and several other cabinet ministers secretly exchanged glances, for them, it was not the first time that Cen Yin had been in charge of the court, and he was in charge of the court, and they had the bottom in their hearts when they started to do things.

"......" The queen was startled and instinctively wanted to refute, but when the words came to her mouth, she didn't dare to say it, and her well-maintained plain hands clenched the handkerchief in her hand. If you offend Cen Yin for this matter, is it worth it?!

Seeing that the queen was dumbfounded, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, especially Duanmu Xian.

After all, the eldest prince is still far away in the south, and at this time, let the four princes supervise the dynasty, wouldn't it be just to give up the throne to the four princes, it would be too cheap for the four princes!

Moreover, the government is so chaotic now, the fourth prince is too young, if he has no ability and loves to toss around, or even the queen takes advantage of this as a regent, the trouble will only be greater......

Duanmu Xian settled down, and immediately echoed: "Then according to what Lord Cen said." In the past, when the emperor toured the south and was sick, he was supervised by Cen Du, and if the emperor woke up, it would be like this. ”

You Junji, Lin Shangshu and other cabinet ministers also echoed one after another, and everyone was looking forward to it.

Duanmuxian raised his eyes and looked at the queen in front of him, and deliberately asked, "What does the queen think?" ”

"......" The queen was very aggrieved in her heart, her lips pursed into a straight line, but she still didn't dare to attack easily.

The queen naturally knew that now the government and the opposition were in Cen Yin's hands, Cen Yin said no, even if she reluctantly helped the four princes up, the four princes would only be suppressed, and they would have bad relations with Cen Yin.

The queen clenched the handkerchief in her hand tighter, and looked at the Xiangfei curtain at the door of the palace, her eyes were slightly gloomy, and her heart was surging.

The emperor is still unconscious, maybe he will wake up in the next moment, maybe tomorrow...... If the emperor wakes up soon, and sees that he can't wait to let the four princes supervise the court, with the emperor's suspicion, I am afraid that she and the four princes will want him to die soon.

But in case the emperor can't wake up, then the country can't be without a king for a day, no matter which prince wants to take the throne, he must have Cen Yin's support, at this time, he must not have a bad relationship with Cen Yin, and push Cen Yin to the side of the eldest prince!

The hall was quiet again, and everything was silent.

The queen gritted her teeth, her whole body was as tense as a full bowstring, and she finally responded: "Just according to the will of Lord Cen Governor." ”

When the last word fell, she collapsed her shoulders as if she had lost a battle.

The dust has finally settled.

The queen and several cabinet ministers came to an agreement, and everyone's hearts were relieved and relieved.

The atmosphere was also much lighter.

The corners of Duanmu Xian's lips hooked slightly, arched his hand at Cen Yin, and said with a smile: "Next, it's hard to supervise Lord Cen." ”

The queen was still a little unwilling, and after thinking about it, she thought again: this road is not passable, and it is necessary to change to another way, even if the four princes cannot directly "supervise the dynasty", then it is okay......

"Lord Cen Inspector, the four princes have always been diligent and studious, and Lord Cen also knows it, so it is better to let him learn more by the side of Lord Cen Inspector." The queen suggested softly, a flattering smile on her lips.

Cen Yin didn't answer the queen's words, as if he hadn't heard it, he said goodbye elegantly: "The queen's mother, the minister still has government affairs, so he will retire first." ”

Without waiting for the queen to agree, Cen Yin turned around and left, completely ignoring the queen's stiff and condensed face.

Duanmuxian and the others originally took time out of their busy schedules to enter the palace because they heard that the emperor was sick, and when they saw this, they all retired one after another due to their busy official duties.

After another cup of tea, even the queen left, and the palace of nourishing the heart fell silent again, as if it was an empty house with no one.

There was a strong smell of medicine in the air, so strong that it made people breathless.

The smell of the medicine lingered throughout the house, like a never-ending nightmare, until the rooster crows at dawn and a new day begins.

The civil and military officials gathered in the Jinluan Hall as usual, but today they did not wait for the emperor, waiting for the bad news that the emperor was seriously ill.

"The emperor is in poor health, from now on, all government affairs will be handed over to the celebrant supervisor, and the celebrant and the cabinet will jointly deal with it, and the early dynasty will be temporarily suspended."

Cen Yin stood beside the high golden lacquer throne and announced directly from the point.

------Off topic------

Good morning!
