Chapter 163: A Long Night
It was almost dusk, and the black pressure in the Wenyuan Pavilion was full of officials, and an official of the Hanlin Academy walked to Wen Yanyan, who was sitting in the middle, with a fold in his hands, and handed it over.
Wen Fangyan looked at the content of the fold and nodded.
The official stepped back, and another officer walked in with a fold in his hand.
Wen Fangyan sat there with a strong spirit, took the folds handed over by the officials with an expressionless face, and put them on the book next to him, and the folds were piled up higher and higher!
Han Jun and Wang Shaoguang, who were sitting on the side, took their eyes back from the book and exchanged anxious looks.
..........
There was silence in the Wenhua Palace.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside.
Jia Yucun and Zhou Kun hurriedly walked in.
Zhu Wucheng looked much deeper than usual, sitting quietly in front of the book, his face full of contemplation, motionless.
Liu Wenbin sat on the side, not saying a word, motionless.
As soon as he entered the house, Zhou Kun couldn't wait to say: "Your Highness, the officials of the various ministries are persuading the excerpts as planned. ”
Liu Wenbin raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Wucheng.
Zhu Wucheng was very calm and spoke unhurriedly, "What is the reaction of the cabinet?" ”
Zhou Kun: "I don't object, I don't approve, I still keep silent." ”
There was silence.
Suddenly, Jia Yucun said: "Your Highness, there is still no one in the military department. ”
Zhu Wucheng was still expressionless, just nodded and said, "Okay, good." ”
Liu Wenbin suddenly stood up and said word by word: "This matter is done!" ”
After being silent for a while, Zhu Wucheng spoke, "What should I do next?" ”
Zhou Kun seemed to understand, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, don't be in a hurry to accept, you must refuse, and the gesture of three invitations and three concessions must be done, and you can't leave a stain." ”
Zhu Wucheng nodded, and asked again, "What else?" ”
"After His Royal Highness ascends the throne, he must quickly gather the hearts of the people, especially those officials who have been implicated because of Wu Shichang, as long as His Royal Highness pardons them, he can get the support of a large number of people, at least in the eyes of Qingliu, His Royal Highness will be a benevolent monarch!"
Zhu Wucheng nodded silently, and then asked, "How should Yang Ge Lao's matter be concluded?" ”
Zhou Kun was stunned, and said in a flickering voice: "Your Royal Highness must sit on the throne as soon as possible, don't be in a hurry, if you rashly take the Zhongshun Palace, you will inevitably offend the entire clan, let alone break the noble system, which will offend the interests of the entire elite group, the north and Zhejiang are using troops, and you can't provoke disputes." ”
Zhu Wucheng: "I put my mind to it." ”
Zhou Kun smiled and replied: "Eat the king's luck, relieve your worries!" ”
Zhu Wucheng nodded with satisfaction and asked Liu Wenbin, "Second assistant?" ”
Liu Wenbin: "Your Highness, don't be in a hurry to accept, and don't be in a hurry to refuse, because the second persuasion will be delayed until tomorrow, and there will be a night between it, and when the night is long, there will be more dreams." ”
Everyone was stunned.
"This palace thinks about it."
Zhu Wucheng gently closed his eyes.
............
The Chongwenmen camp is brightly lit.
Feng Tang sat in the center of the big tent.
Inside the big tent, silently stood full of battalion generals.
A fast horse galloped in, and immediately it was a steward eunuch of the East Palace.
The eunuch turned over and dismounted, ran to the big tent, and took out Zhu Wucheng's edict, "The prince has a decree to immediately close the inner city, and the civil and military officials in the city are not allowed to leave the city from now on." ”
..........
The room was full of the smell of medicine, and the two old women looked nervously at Li Dongbi, who was pouring the pot of hot medicinal juice into the bowl.
Dai Quan stepped forward and carefully picked up the tray and asked, "You can think about it!" ”
Li Dongbi's face immediately became extremely solemn and serious, "Medicine!" ”
At this moment, Wang An, the deputy head of the Qianqing Palace, walked in sweating, "Oh no, the leaders of the guards in the palace have changed, and they are all Lin Lei's people......"
Dai Quan was taken aback and asked urgently, "What's the matter?" ”
Wang An: "It's the prince's edict, and he ordered that no one is allowed to leave the palace tonight." ”
As soon as the words fell, Chen Xuan broke in like a gust of wind, and when he saw Li Dongbi, he said: "I searched through the pharmacy and didn't find the old ginseng you always said, is it wrong?" ”
All the sound came to an abrupt end.
Li Dongbi raised his head in surprise.
Everyone was shocked.
Dai Quan finally couldn't help but speak, "Li Yuanzheng, this medicine ....."
Li Dongbi sighed, looked at Chen Xuan, and said, "Perhaps..... It's really me misremembering. ”
The old lady spoke, "Without the medicine, this medicine will have no effect!" ”
The other old lady immediately nodded in agreement.
There was silence.
Li Dongbi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Yes, without the medicine, Your Majesty will definitely not be able to wake up in these few days." ”
Dai Quan sighed silently, "Perhaps, this is the best situation.....
...........
Rongguo Mansion can't save things!
"I heard that the second wife is sick...."
"Hey, you don't know. Let me tell you, the second wife was scolded by the second master in front of the old lady, the eldest lady, the second master Lian, the second grandmother Lian, Miss Lin and the third girl, can she not fall ill?! ”
"Impossible, right?"
"The second master is furious in the old lady's house, but it scares everyone a lot!"
"Hehe, the second wife's life is even more difficult now!"
“......”
Mrs. Wang was indeed ill, but she did not fall ill because of illness, as for the cause, no one could tell, the doctor didn't say anything, and prescribed medicine to leave.
In the east room of Rongxi Hall, Mrs. Wang was lying on the couch, her face was pale, and several big girls such as Caiyun, Jin Chu'er, and Yu Chu'er stood silently aside, ready to serve at any time.
Li Kun was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a bowl, and was carefully serving Mrs. Wang for dinner, Mrs. Wang shook her head, "I'm not hungry." ”
Li Kun scooped up a spoonful of porridge and carefully blew it cold, "The old man went to the palace, and there was also a message from the old lady, the Ruishi Battalion was stationed in the imperial city because of His Majesty's previous instructions, and nothing would happen." ”
Mrs. Wang perked up, "Really? ”
"I don't dare to coax you!"
Mrs. Wang struggled to sit up, but Li Su hurriedly said, "Madam, you lie down." ”
"Help me up, I'm not sick."
Li Kun was helpless and helped her against the head of the bed.
Mrs. Wang reached out and took the porridge bowl in Caiyun's hand, brought the bowl to her mouth, opened her mouth and drank the half bowl of porridge in one go.
Several pairs of eyes were fixed on her.
Mrs. Wang handed the empty bowl to Caiyun, "Why didn't the girl come?" ”
Li Kun smiled, "Mrs. Hui, Tanchun accompanied the old lady to dinner in Rongqing Hall, and Baoyu was also there." ”
Mrs. Wang took the towel in her hand and asked, "Mrs. Aunt and Bao Yatou are gone?" ”
Li Kun: "My aunt has also caught a little cold in the past two days, so I sat for a while and went back." ”
Mrs. Wang's heart was furious, but she was not angry, "It's not early, you can go back too." ”
"This...."
Mrs. Wang waved her hand, "I don't need you to serve here, you take good care of Lan'er for me, let him go to school well, give it to me, give it to the master, and fight for the second room!" ”
Romance
Li Kun replied, "Yes." Then he said to Caiyun and the others: "Good life serves the wife." ”
.........
The sky was gradually brightening, the fog had not yet dispersed, and the gate of the Qianqing Palace creaked open.
The two little yellow men each walked out with a long broom, and there was a rush of footsteps.
Lu Wenliang, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials, walked in quickly, "Shoufu, the prince summoned the officials of the six departments to discuss in the Wenyuan Pavilion. ”
Wen Fangyan opened his eyes, and Jia Zheng and Han Jun, who were sitting next to him, stood up, their eyes were red, and they actually stayed here all night.
