Chapter 307

Zhengde took Liu Jin and others to step into the East Warm Pavilion of Shouning Palace, the pungent smell of herbs and a heat wave came to his face, and Zhengde couldn't help but reach out and cover his nose.

A group of palace maids saw Zhengde coming, one by one, like panicked rabbits, they bowed down, Zhengde frowned and waved his hand and asked, "Why is it so hot in this room?" Why don't you open the windows for ventilation to dispel the smell of medicine? ”

The two imperial doctors kneeling beside the table hurriedly said: "The emperor forgives the sin, the princess is cold, so she has charcoal fire to dispel cold and dampness." ”

Zhengde was stunned for a moment, his eyes moved to the corner of the house, and he saw two pots of charcoal burned red, no wonder the house was hot and sweating, it turned out to be because of the charcoal fire.

Zhengde stretched out his hand and lifted the curtain to walk into the inner room, and when he learned that Zhengde was coming, Zhu Xiufu on the bed struggled to get up, wrapped in a thick quilt all over her body, only her head was exposed, her face was pale and thin, and she said weakly: "The emperor is here, I can't come to bed now, I can't salute the emperor." ”

Zhengde almost burst into tears, quickly stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out his hand to hold Zhu Xiufu's body and said, "Sister Huang, don't get up, lie down and raise you, why is she so sick?" How does Sister Huang feel? ”

Zhu Xiufu curled up and said softly: "Don't worry about the emperor, it's just an illness." ”

Zhengde stretched out his hand to hold Zhu Xiufu's thin palm and rubbed it: "What does the imperial sister want to eat, if you want anything, just open your mouth, I will send someone to get it for you." ”

Zhu Xiufu shook her head and said: "I don't want anything, I don't know if this disease will be contagious, the emperor still rarely comes here, I know that the emperor cares about me, but the emperor himself has to take care of himself, and the emperor has to work all major affairs in the court." ”

Seeing Zhu Xiufu's appearance, Zhengde had an ominous premonition in his heart, his heart was sour, and he said in a dumb voice: "The imperial sister is good to be raised, and I will order the world's famous doctors to enter the palace for treatment, I can't watch the imperial sister fall ill." ”

Tears fell from Zhu Xiufu's big eyes, and she said softly: "Thank you to the emperor." ”

Zhengde got up and said: "The imperial sister will be raised, and I will issue an edict to seek a doctor." ”

Zhu Xiufu nodded slightly, gasping weakly with her small mouth open; Zhengde took a few steps and turned around and said, "By the way, Song Nan asked me to bring a message to ask the imperial sister for peace, and he said that he would invite a famous doctor to treat you outside." ”

Zhu Xiufu's eyes lit up and asked, "Song Nan?" Is he coming? ”

Zhengde said: "I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to see the living, so I didn't let him come; Besides, it is inconvenient for him to enter and exit the harem. ”

Zhu Xiufu sighed, her body softened, her eyes became dim, and after a while, she coughed violently, and the palace maids on both sides hurriedly stepped forward to beat her back and rub her chest, and took hot water for her to drink.

Zhengde couldn't bear to stay any longer, turned around and walked out of the inner room, came to the courtyard outside, and ordered Liu Jin to send two imperial doctors to come to the front and ask angrily: "What kind of disease does the princess have?" What are you all eating, at first you said it was not in the way, but now it has dragged a living person into this shape for a month, and I am going to cut off your head, what do these quacks do? ”

The two imperial doctors were so frightened that they kowtowed like pounding garlic, and begged for mercy in a loud voice: "The emperor is angry, I have been practicing medicine for decades, and I have never seen such a disease...... It seems to be ......"

Zhengde was angry, raised his foot and kicked over a white-bearded imperial doctor in front of him, and scolded angrily: "What does it seem? Slurping and spitting things, said. ”

Two imperial doctors, you look at me, I look at you, but they don't dare to continue.

"Tell me, are you deaf?" Zhengde said angrily.

Liu Jin also screamed: "Do you want to die? What is the disease, why don't you answer the emperor's question? ”

The white-bearded imperial physician gritted his teeth and crawled a few steps and kowtowed: "The emperor is angry, and the ministers are also speculating, the princess's illness is slowly boiling and emaciating, and the person is gradually committed, and there is no lesion on the body. ”

"What?" Everyone was stunned, Zhengde raised his foot and kicked the imperial doctor's chin, and the imperial doctor was suddenly covered with blood, and his mouth was speechless.

"Okay, you're a quack, you talk nonsense if you don't have the skills, and you're angry, it's just nonsense." Zhengde scolded, looked around, and saw a palace maid holding a teapot in her hand, and immediately grabbed it and smashed it against the two imperial doctors, the teapot broke, the boiling water splashed, and the two imperial doctors were suddenly burned and wailed loudly, but they didn't dare to move.

Liu Jin hurriedly grabbed Zhengde and said, "Your Majesty, why do you bother to be angry with such quacks?" Ordered someone to pull out the noon gate and cut it to see who dared to deceive the emperor indiscriminately. ”

Zhengde said: "Yes, come on, pull out the Lu and cut it, all the doctors in the Tai Hospital rushed here to diagnose, if there is any more nonsense, it will be cut as well." In addition, I immediately passed on my will and summoned the world's famous doctors to enter the palace to treat the princess. ”

Several guards on the left and right stepped forward and dragged the two imperial doctors out without saying anything, and the souls of the two imperial doctors flew out of the sky, so frightened that they couldn't even make a sound begging for mercy, their throats gurgled, and their bodies were paralyzed like a mess of mud.

Zhengde walked out of Shouning Palace with a gloomy face, scolding as he walked, Liu Jin followed him to persuade and comfort, and returned to the study of Qianqing Palace to sit down, finally a sixteen-year-old boy, and he was stunned and cried.

Liu Jin panicked, handed over a silk scarf to Zhengde to wipe his tears, and said: "The emperor doesn't want to mess up, Princess Kangning's illness will get better." ”

Zhengde choked up and said: "It's no better, I can see that there is no life in the eyes of the imperial sister, and the imperial doctor can't see where the illness is, and he can't help it; How can this live? ”

Liu Jin said silently for a while: "Your Majesty, the princess's illness is strange, I don't know what kind of disease she was born of, how can she be so dangerous, could it be that she offended someone and was cursed by someone, otherwise how could she be so evil?" ”

Zhengde opened his teary eyes and said, "How come? The royal sister has a lively temperament, and she is very coquettish, no one in the palace dislikes her, who can she offend? ”

Liu Jin nodded and said: "That's right, if you are cursed by the Gu, there should also be signs of pain, the princess is kind and kind, and she hasn't offended anyone, so she thinks too much about it." ”

Zhengde said: "Just in case, you went and invited the goddess to check inside and outside the Shouning Palace to see if there was any harm." ”

Liu Jin nodded and said, "The slave obeys the order; Your Majesty, there is something that the slave maid thinks is very strange, and I don't know whether to say it or not. ”

Zhengde said: "Is it about the imperial sister?" Say. ”

Liu Jin said: "Exactly, but the slave is just speculating, if you say it wrong......

Zhengde said: "I don't blame you, aren't we trying to find a way to save the imperial sister?" ”

Liu Jin said: "The slave can be blunt; The princess's illness dragged on for a month without finding the cause, and the slave thought it was very strange; Last night, the slave was lying in bed thinking about this, and accidentally remembered something. ”

Zhengde said: "What's the matter?" ”

Liu Jin said: "Does the emperor still remember that Lord Song talked to the princess in the apse that day?" ”

Zhengde raised his head and thought for a while: "You mean the day when the emperor's sister suddenly announced that she was unwilling to recruit Song Nan as a concubine?" ”

Liu Jin nodded and said, "On that day, doesn't the emperor feel strange?" Forgive the slave and maid for talking too much, we went out on a tour for more than a month, and the princess saw the situation of Lord Song along the way, although the slave and maid did not understand the relationship between men and women, but they could also see that the princess liked Lord Song from the bottom of her heart, and the emperor also saw it in his eyes. ”

Zhengde nodded and said: "I naturally see it in my eyes, otherwise how would I match them, the imperial sister likes Song Nan, and Song Nan is a suitable candidate, so I will consider this matter." ”

Liu Jin said: "Yes, after returning to Beijing, the slave and maid volunteered to talk to Song Nan for the princess, and the princess's joy at that time was also seen by the emperor, and the princess personally told you that she wanted to choose Song Nan as the concubine, but for what happened in a blink of an eye, the situation suddenly changed, after talking to Song Nan about that time, the princess suddenly said that she didn't like Song Nan, and announced that the matter would never be mentioned again?" Doesn't that seem strange? ”

Zhengde frowned and said: "I was also very abrupt at that time, but the imperial sister said that she didn't like Song Nan anymore, and I didn't want to ask anything, there are so many talents in the world, I always slowly find the right person for the imperial sister." ”

Liu Jin said: "But the day after this incident, the princess said that she was unwell, and since then, she has been calling the imperial doctor to see a doctor, delaying the illness to this day, doesn't the emperor feel that this is a little strange?" Anyway, the slave maid thinks it's quite strange. ”

Zhengde was stunned and said, "You mean, the imperial sister's illness...... Something to do with Song Nan? ”

Liu Jin hurriedly said: "The slave maid is just speculating in private, you think, all the abrupt things in this, the princess suddenly changed her hexagram, and then fell ill the next day, Song Nan asked for employment in the Guogong Mansion in a few days, we didn't know anything about it beforehand, and the slave and maid always felt that it was a little strange." With the pure benign son of the princess...... Slaves...... Slave ......"

Zhengde shouted: "What are you doing? What do you want to say? ”

Liu Jin smacked his lips and said: "Your Majesty, there is a disease in the world called 'heart disease', although this heart disease cannot be seen or touched, and the imperial doctor cannot diagnose it, but it does exist; Of course, all this is the slave's speculation, and perhaps there is no such thing and it is not known. ”

Zhengde opened his mouth in a daze, and after Liu Jin's analysis, the fragments in Zhengde's brain were also strung together, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense.

The slave maid felt that the princess's illness was most likely caused by Song Nan, and she didn't know what Song Nan said, which hurt the princess's heart and caused the princess to be like this; The culprit may be Lord Song. ”

Zhengde's body was shocked, and he slapped it on the table and said, "Song Nan really dares to play tricks under my nose?" If the imperial sister's illness is really caused by him, but there are three long and two short, I can't spare him. ”
