Near dawn, in the dormitory of the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Yongle, who was lying on the dragon bed, was still unconscious.

Liu Yuan's envoy checked his pulse again, and then shook his head, and it took a lot of effort before he spoke: "Your Majesty, the emperor is only afraid that he won't be able to survive...... The minister has no power to return to heaven. โ€

Huang Yan asked Concubine Chen Li: "Niangniang, do you want the old slave to ask other doctors to take a look again?" โ€

After staying up all night, Concubine Chen Li's delicate faces were already gray, and before she could speak, Concubine Long Hui, who had the best energy, had already shouted: "Confused, in this hospital, who else can be stronger than Envoy Liu's medical skills?" Moreover, the emperor said a few years ago that if he was sick, he would only be allowed to show him by the envoy of the Liu Academy. โ€

Huang Yan was startled by these words, "The old slave didn't dare, he just thought that one more person might be safer." โ€

The envoy of Liu Yuan on the side said heavily: "What Gonggong Huang thinks is very much, but the emperor's illness, several skilled doctors in the hospital have come to see it, and the old minister is the same thing, Concubine Li is here, listen carefully." โ€

Concubine Chen Li, who seemed to be thinking about something on the side, heard what the envoy Liu said, nodded, and said with a sad face: "Yes, when the sisters went to have a supper just now, the envoy Liu had already asked the people from the hospital to come and see it, and they also said that the emperor is sick, I'm afraid there is no way." โ€

At that time, it was Huang Yan who accompanied Concubine Long Hui and the others out, and Wang An and the others waited in front of them.

Huang Yan looked at their expressions, and then looked at Emperor Yongle lying on the dragon bed, as if he couldn't believe that the emperor was really hopeless.

Although the inner and outer rooms were separated by thresholds and curtains, the people outside still listened carefully to the conversation between Liu Yuan, and the crown prince, as well as other princes and important ministers who rushed over in the middle of the night, all looked like water when they heard this.

Although it was not saved, there was still breath at this time, so although everyone was sad in their hearts, they held back their crying and sat there, but no one refused to speak, as if as soon as they opened their mouths, the last breath of Emperor Yongle would go with it.

In the end, it was Xia Yuanji, the head of the household, who spoke: "If the emperor will be mourned, the whole country will mourn, but fortunately, the prince is established early, and the future has been decided, so we don't have to be afraid of the turmoil of the dynasty." โ€

The three ministers and six ministers also joined one after another.

Li Maofang, Marquis of Fuyang, looked at the prince, and then said: "Recently, the emperor summoned the prince to the rare day, coinciding with the entry of King Gao Sui of Zhao into the court of Linjing, there are rumors that the emperor belongs to King Zhao, and there is another edict to pass on the throne, in the opinion of the minister, it is better to be cautious in this matter." โ€

Li Maofang's mother is Princess Yongping, Princess Yongping is the second daughter of Emperor Yongle, married Li Maofang's father Li Rang, after Li Rang's death, he gave Jing Guogong and Gongmin. His sister-in-law Li Maofang inherited the title of Marquis of Fuyang, speaking of which, he is the grandson of Emperor Yongle, and the crown prince Zhu Gaochi and the King of Han and King Zhao are all his uncles.

Shoufu Yang Rong looked unhappy, "How can you believe such hearsay?" Fuyang Hou should not talk nonsense and disturb people's hearts. โ€

The Marquis of Fuyang seemed to be smiling, "As a courtier, of course, you have to worry about the king, what you like and what you hate, what I just said, where is there anything wrong?" If this is just groundless, then of course the crown prince should inherit the unification, if not, how can you and I bear the charge of setting up a false edict and plotting to usurp the throne? โ€

Seeing that Fuyang Hou said righteously, some people hesitated, and everyone whispered.

Yang Rong and the others still have to distinguish according to reason, and the prince, who has not spoken, glanced at them, and after scanning his eyes around the courtiers, he said: "What your lords said makes sense, but when my father was still at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, I didn't believe that this small illness could take him away, so it was too early to talk about this topic." โ€

The Marquis of Fuyang seemed respectful, and there was a bit of pain in his voice, "What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is reasonable, but Lord Liu, the envoy of the Imperial Hospital, has already said that the emperor may not be able to escape this disaster this time." Therefore, I also ask His Royal Highness to make arrangements as soon as possible, so as to set the record straight, so as not to cause people all over the world to talk about it, saying that the name of the successor is not right. โ€

Hu Tong, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, pointed at the Marquis of Fuyang with tears in his eyes, trembling, and said angrily: "The Marquis of Fuyang is alarmist in saying this, the world knows that the emperor and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are filial piety to their fathers and sons, and there is also the emperor's grandson who has the holy will, in case the emperor ...... The succession of the crown prince is not only the emperor's desire, but also the desire of the people. โ€

The Marquis of Fuyang pursed his lips invisibly, "If this is the case, why has the emperor refused to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince several times in recent days?" The last time, I met for three days, when I met with Baoding Hou Jin, I happened to hear the emperor's reprimand and pass the word, Baoding Hou, you can tell everyone about the situation at that time. โ€

Baoding Hou Mengying is quiet and silent, he likes to read on weekdays, although he is good at riding and shooting, but he is like a Confucian student, he from the first year of Jianwen, with Zhu Di who is still the king of Yan to raise troops "Jing difficult", led more than 100 cavalry as the vanguard, because of successive victories, promoted to the command of the righteous and brave left guard, from Baigou to Jinan and continuously established miraculous feats, promoted to the commander of the same knowledge.

When his father Meng Shan was holding on to Baopu, Meng Ying led 5,000 cavalry reinforcements to defeat the tens of thousands of southern troops led by the governor Han Tong, established meritorious service, and was promoted to commander.

Because of his great military achievements, Meng Ying Yongle attacked the Marquis of Baoding for ten years, continued to command the left army, and led the troops during the period.

Chang Shanwei commanded Meng Xian as his elder brother, the eldest son of the late Baoding Hou Mengshan.

At this time, he didn't know the whole story of Meng Xian's capture, and when he heard Fuyang Hou say, his face sank, "Whose father hasn't trained his son?" Fuyang Hou said this, inevitably a little fuss. โ€

Although it was goodwill, it indirectly confirmed that what Fuyang Hou said was true, and some officials who watched the wind fell to Fuyang Hou.

In the middle of the trouble, Jiang Bao, another great eunuch of the celebrant eunuch, was holding a gold plate, on which there was a scroll of hard yellow paper and an ivory shaft handle, which looked like an edict from the outside.

Sure enough, Jiang Bao presented the edict to the Ministry of Rites, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the edict of succession that the slave just took back from Shang Baosi, and I ask your lord to announce the edict." โ€

After Hu Tong took it, he first saluted and then unfolded the scroll, but after he read the edict, he did not read it directly, but knelt down and saluted the unconscious Yongle Emperor in the inner room, and said loudly: "Dare to ask the emperor, the edict held by the great eunuch Jiang Bao, but the emperor wrote it himself, and every word came from the meaning of the Son of Heaven?" โ€

Huang Yan, who had already come out of the inner room, was shocked when he heard it, "Why did your lord say this?" Could it be that this edict can still be fake? This edict was written by the old slave and Gonggong Jiang with their own eyes, and they listened to the emperor's dictation, and then drafted it, how can it be faked? โ€

Seeing that something was wrong, Zuo Yude Yang Shiqi said on the side: "The stakes are very high, Lord Hu should be so cautious, it stands to reason that since this edict was drawn up before the emperor fell into a coma, and the jade seal was used in Shangbaosi, it should be personally verified by the important ministers of the court, how could it be in the hands of a great eunuch who is a ceremonial supervisor in Jiangbao, so this edict should be read only after it has been verified by the princes and ministers." โ€

Jiang Bao was a little unhappy in the corners of his eyes, but finally replied respectfully, "My lord Mingjian, writing the edict was originally made by the celebrant to uphold the emperor's will, this edict was originally drafted by the old slave and Huang Gonggong according to the emperor's description, and after the emperor let Shang Bao Si use the seal, he was ready to invite all the adults to be present, I don't want such a thing to happen tonight, it happened suddenly, so I haven't had time yet...... Since Lord Yang said that the edict needs to be inspected, please please-"

The eunuch is in charge of all the etiquette in the imperial city, the name of the sentence and the management of the errands, and the eunuch who is the chief eunuch of the imperial city, and the eunuch Huang Yan, who is the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch Jiang Bao, does have the possibility of participating in the drafting of the edict.

The prince sat aside, silent, as if he was deep in thought, and as if he was caught off guard by this sudden scene, unable to deal with it.

Held by Hu Tong, everyone looked around the edict, only to see that the edict was written beautifully, the words were neat, the first wrote that the prince had been negligent in the past three years, did not know benevolence and filial piety, and was disrespectful and dedicated, so he was abolished, and then wrote how the king of Zhao was a brother and a brother, Kang Mu Mingmin, who can be a king, and other words, which were already to be passed on to Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao.

These words, not to mention that Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi, who have been assisting the prince, don't want to believe it, even Xia Yuanji, the secretary of the household department, Hu Tong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the Hou Mengying of Baoding don't believe it.

But the emperor's treasure seal on it can't help but be unbelieving.

Some people believed it, but they thought that this was not a good opportunity to express their position, so they watched the competition between several high-ranking and powerful people.

Wu'an Hou Zheng Heng shouted, "Is this edict true?" I think we still have to think about it to wake up the emperor and ask a question. โ€

His eyes were round, and he looked at Jiang Bao and Huang Yan, who were shocked by him and were speechless for a while.

Zheng Heng's father, Zheng Yong, raised troops with Ming Taizu, accumulated merit and awarded Daxingwei deputy cadres, Hongwu 25 years to envoy Mobei, Zheng Heng because of the merit of Fu Ji, promoted to the command of Yunwei.

"Jing difficult", Yan Wang Zhu Di raised troops, Zheng Heng led his troops to defect, was ordered to attack Jizhou, captured the capital to command Ma Xuan, and fought in Zhengcun Dam, attacked Bauhinia Pass, Ulzhou, Datong, Baigou River, Jinan, Cangzhou, Sizhou, accumulated merit and moved the military capital of the left governor's office, sealed Wu Anhou, guarded Beijing, its people and soldiers were strict in discipline, and they were good at soothing soldiers.

Zheng Heng, who was born as a military general, was full of light, and although Huang Yan and Jiang Bao, who were usually the chief eunuchs of the ceremonial eunuchs, were used to being powerful, they were also a little shocked by his eyes.

Fuyang Hou said solemnly: "It's just that the emperor has been in a coma for a long time at the moment, how can he answer the questions of the adults?" Moreover, above this edict, the jade seal is still in the eyes, and it has been seen and heard by the two great eunuchs of the ceremonial eunuch, how can it be fake? โ€

"Of course there are falsehoods, and what you are looking at is a false edict. It was Jiang Bao and Huang Yan who made the decision without authorization and deceived the king. โ€

With the words, Zhu Zhanji strode in and bowed to the inner room, "Grandpa Huang, Sun Er is fortunate to live up to his life, and has taken down Meng Xian, the commander of Changshanwei, Peng Xu, the commander of Yulinwei, Wang Shecheng, the supervisor of Qintian, Gao Yizheng, the Houtun guard of Xingzhou, and the Zhenfu Chen Kai of Tongzhou Youwei, and the emperor grandpa. โ€

The situation took a sharp turn for the worse, Jiang Bao and Huang Yan glanced at each other and were about to slip out.

Someone was already staring at them, and as soon as Zhu Zhanji waved his hand, the imperial guards took down the two of them.
