"Although Master Li can help change the excerpt, but it is not in accordance with the rules, after all, it is in a hurry," Li Hongzao leaned down deeply, "The emperor's body is not very good, and he has been dragging his sick body to see the excerpt these days, and he is still fine this morning, and he will fall asleep again, how can he raise it?" It's really not good, you can talk about it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Prince Gong was silent, and Prince Gong said loudly, "The queen mother is in charge of everything, and there is no reason for slaves to disobey." ”

Prince Gong didn't speak, and Li Hongzao didn't speak, but it didn't mean that no one else didn't speak, Zeng Guofan kowtowed, "Now the holy bow is a happy event, and the government affairs are busy, so it can't be easily put aside, please ask the queen mother," Zeng Guofan gasped, "All the chapters, all the events that must be requested, I plan to ask the queen mother to give instructions on behalf of the emperor, so as to follow." ”

King Alcohol and Cezanne also hurriedly kowtowed, "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

"What does Prince Gong mean?" The Queen Mother looked around at everyone, looked at Prince Gong and said.

"The emperor is not in good health, so naturally someone has to handle state affairs on his behalf, although Master Li reviews it on his behalf, he is still a courtier, and it is not appropriate to trespass," Prince Gong bowed helplessly, "The minister respectfully asks the queen mother to review the chapter on behalf of the emperor during his illness." ”

"In that case, then you go in and tell the emperor what you mean," the Empress Dowager Cixi nodded, "How to tell the emperor, you have to think about it." ”

"Huh."

Everyone was waiting in the main hall of the Yangxin Palace, the Queen Mother looked at the nose and nose, and after a while, Chen Shengwen came out to tell that the emperor was awake, the Queen Mother nodded, Prince Gong was behind, a group of mermaids entered the Xinuan Pavilion, the emperor had woken up at this time, but his face was red, it seemed to be drunk, the queen and the concubine had been avoided, only the Empress Dowager Cixi sat in front of the emperor's couch, Prince Gong knelt and said to the emperor, the emperor sighed slightly, "It's okay, the world can't be slackened for a day, Master Li will fold on his behalf, It's an expedient method, a few days ago I was afraid of tiring the emperor's mother, but now that you are so invited, I will naturally agree, and in these 100 days, I can only bother the emperor's mother. It's just the same, you must be the same, as always, respectful to the Queen Mother, understand? ”

"The ministers obey."

"Don't worry, your emperor is not a lover," the Empress Dowager Cixi tucked the quilt for the emperor, "In order to let you recuperate with peace of mind, don't think about the troubles outside, as long as you have passed the hundred days and your body is better, the emperor will naturally be able to avoid this drudgery." ”

"Yes, yes," Emperor Tongzhi said gratefully, "It's always the emperor's mother's compassion for his son,"

"You don't have to worry about it anymore." Empress Dowager Cixi's eyes swept over, first at Empress Dowager Ci'an, then at King Gong and others, and finally fell on the emperor's face, coaxing a child and said: "You can rest assured that you are well, in front of everyone here, I will just agree." ”

It means "reluctant to be invited", and the emperor and his ministers have to express their gratitude and kindness. When he retreated, he drafted the purpose while discussing it. The queen mother is different from the emperor, there is no difference between watching the fold and meeting with the military aircraft, but the introduction of ordinary officials, as well as the sacrificial ceremony, the queen mother cannot act as the son of heaven, and she has to think of a charter.

"The New Year is coming soon, and at the end of the year, the temple will be sacrificed, and the prince will be sent to Gong Dai." Bao Jun pointed out one by one: "New Year's Day congratulations, is it inevitable? How to adapt the introduction of officials inside and outside Beijing? Who will answer the questions for all kinds of bad exams? ”

"New Year's Day pilgrimage, sutra feasts and other ceremonies are naturally postponed. The suburban altar is sacrificed and enjoyed, and the Ministry of Rites temporarily invites the Queen Mother to send personnel to pay tribute on her behalf. The questions in the business test will be handled by the military aircraft. It's just that officials inside and outside Beijing have introduced," King Gong thought for a while and said, "How about changing it to inspection and release?" ”

"Actually, there is no need to delay, as long as it is the same as the previous regulations when the curtain was lowered." Zhu Xueqin said.

"It's not appropriate, now it's not a curtain," Shen Guifen shook his head, "In the past, the curtain was customized, but now it's just expediency, since it's expedient, it's naturally different from the previous curtain thing, you can't summon officials, and you can't replace the emperor's own order, just deal with the matter on the fold." ”

"I'm afraid you won't be able to stop the Queen Mother," Bao Jun sighed, "She can do everything she wants, do you see it, let's not open our mouths, naturally there are other people who open their mouths to help the Queen Mother come true." ”

That's all it takes. Because it is inconvenient for the empress dowager to summon courtiers from the outer court, and it is not the duty of the emperor to see the fold. So according to King Gong's wishes, he drafted four articles, and sent them together with the edict drafted by Shen Guifen to ask for an edict.

The draft was quickly approved, only a few words were changed, and it was taken down and immediately sent to the cabinet for Ming Fa, and on the same day it was the "Di banknote", which was like this "Encyclical at Home and Abroad":

"I met the joy of smallpox this month, and I was pleaded by the prince and other words, and meditated. I think about it so much, how dare I delay comfort? However, it is still difficult for me to bow down, and I should bow down to what I am asked. But I am afraid that there is nothing to do, and I am afraid that there will be no mistakes; Repeatedly appealed to the Empress Dowager Cixi, bowed down to the righteous recuperation, and all the internal and external yamen Chen Zheng incidents, petitions were read and adjudicated. Yang He is merciful and benevolent, and I am deeply fortunate to know this encyclical to China and abroad. ”

So from the next day, the Empress Dowager Cixi did things in Shoukang Palace, reviewed the chapters, summoned the military plane in Shoukang Palace, adjudicated military affairs, and left the Yangxin Palace to recuperate for the emperor to recuperate.

The palace of nourishing the heart is much cleaner, only a few attendants and harem concubines in the south study are waiting for the emperor, so after a few days, the emperor really has a great improvement, he sleeps comfortably at night, he has little food, and his face looks a lot better, even the most worried queen can't help but be happy, "It seems that it can be very good." ”

The emperor leisurely leaned on the kang and flipped through a book, "There is so fast, there are still many days, the residual poison on the body can be discharged, and the body can be considered complete, I can't get out these days, and I can't blow a trace of wind, but it's really suffocating." The emperor stretched, "There is nothing interesting in this palace." ”

The eunuch took the emperor's medicine, the smell of the medicine was very nasal, the queen couldn't help but feel a little nauseated, so she pinched her nose with a handkerchief, the emperor drank the medicine, bitter face, Chen Shengwen hurriedly offered honey-pickled hawthorn, the emperor used some, saw the queen's expression was a little strange, and said with a smile, "It's hard for you to accompany me as a patient, this smallpox is contagious, and you don't come here often, so as not to pass it on to you, the master of the harem, if you fall ill again, it will make the six palaces not live in peace, and I am also distressed." ”

The Arut clan nodded, "The concubine will go down to the emperor to see how the bird's nest is." (To be continued.) )
