Chapter 409 Departure

Previous Chapter

On the same day, the Yutang Hall was wonderful, whether it was the scholars of the palace examination or the prince of the main examination, the performance was very good.

Liu Zhiduan sat on a high throne, but his mind drifted to more than 20 years ago, when he presided over the palace examination for the first time, and it was completely to cross the river by feeling the stones.

And Chen Yu's performance is also quite outstanding, becoming the first leader of the Han Dynasty, which I am afraid will go down in history forever.

However, although Liu Jin is the chief examiner, he still doesn't dare to focus on such a big matter as the palace exam, and the final ranking is still determined by asking him.

The next day, Liu Zhi did not attend the traditional flower arrangement parade, and even from that day on, he rarely appeared in front of people.

Rumors gradually began to spread quietly in the palace, and His Majesty seemed to be unwell and needed to recuperate, so let the crown prince supervise the country.

In addition to the cabinet members, the only people who can ask to see His Majesty at any time are Chen Yu and the deans of the four major academies.

His attention to these deans completely exceeded all expectations, and the prince's East Palace and the Yide Hall of the cabinet almost became the administrative center of the Han Dynasty.

Now, for the recital sent by the prince to ask for instructions, Liu Zhi often returned it intact.

But even so, Liu Jin still respectfully presents the recital every day, regardless of whether Liu Zhi will watch it or not, rain or shine.

He didn't participate much in the court meetings every ten years, and often asked the prince to preside over them.

It was not until the end of the year that the medical team sent to Rome returned from overseas, and Liu Zhi personally took over the dust for them.

It is really not easy for these people to go to the country and leave their hometowns for tens of thousands of miles, and the key is that they have successfully completed their tasks.

At the banquet, Liu Zhi praised them lavishly, and everyone was promoted several levels in a row, among which a doctor died in the line of duty, his soul returned overseas, and he was posthumously named a townsman.

Eventually, he instructed the Medical College and the Tai Hospital to work together to sort out the techniques for treating smallpox as soon as possible, and then spread them throughout the country.

After doing this, until the Chinese New Year, the emperor never appeared in public again.

If it weren't for the occasional Cabinet Secretary being able to see him, it would have raised doubts about his health.

In the blink of an eye, in the second year, at the Yuan Ri celebration of this year, the emperor only hurriedly came out and showed his face, so that those who suspected that he could no longer move the gossip and stopped for a while.

Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, Liu Zhi held a grand wedding for the crown prince Liu Jin and Liu Yu, the king of Xiangyang, as a father and as an emperor, he personally presided over the wedding for his son.

After that, until the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, he did not show up again, and even the cabinet ministers asked to see him, but he was refused, but instead sent a message that they could discuss any military affairs with the crown prince.

Everyone was quite helpless, and things couldn't help but be dealt with, not to mention that the prince was indeed getting more and more mellow in handling things.

By March, the courtiers were almost all accustomed to it, and without the presence of the emperor, the entire imperial court was functioning normally.

Anyway, there is a prince in charge of the country, and gradually, when everyone has something, they no longer think about asking the emperor.

At this time, Liu Zhi was really not in the palace, he had already secretly driven and took Queen Deng Meng to Guangchengyuan.

There, he took off the imperial crown he had worn for decades, began to dress up as an ordinary person, and actively did physical training every day.

In June, he finally received a telegram from Nanyang Gong Deng Yan: Everything is ready!

Liu Zhi was extremely excited when he saw it, "Hahaha, this day has finally arrived." ”

The husband and wife immediately secretly returned to the palace, and that night, Zhang Zhi, the dean of the medical school, was hurriedly summoned into the palace and did not come out all night.

Soon, a piece of news began to circulate that His Majesty had suffered another stroke and was paralyzed in bed, unable to speak or act.

When Zhang Zhi came out of the palace with a tired face, he was faced with countless officials who came to listen to the news.

Zhang Zhi looked at them expressionlessly, "Your Majesty is indeed sick, and he will soon be transferred to the palace to recuperate, and the old man may have to follow." ”

The news was like a bolt from the blue, and it exploded, and the ministers flocked to the palace to ask to visit His Majesty's condition.

In the afternoon, the empress summoned more than 20 courtiers and important ministers, including seven cabinet ministers, the crown prince and the crown prince, as well as several ministers of Shangshu, as well as several military tycoons.

Walking into the dimly lit and even somewhat gloomy hall, on the huge carved dragon couch, Liu Zhi was pale and lay on it.

"Ladies and gentlemen...... They are all pillars of the country, and they will ...... in the future This Han world, please give it to a few, and assist the prince Liu Jin to create a prosperous and prosperous ......"

By the time he finished his words intermittently, many of the courtiers below were already crying.

"Your Majesty needs to recuperate, you can't stand the noise, you better go out first."

With a sad look on her face, the queen walked out with the ministers, and promulgated Liu Zhi's last edict in public.

In the edict, it was clearly stated that he could no longer perform his duties as an emperor, and that he would pass on to the crown prince Liu Jin, and then move to the suburban garden for long-term recuperation.

At this point, the courtiers had no choice but to accept the edict, but the prince wept bitterly, knelt down and repeatedly refused to accept it.

The queen sighed, "Crown Prince Renxiao, how can you disobey your father's will when he is sick?" ”

Under the repeated requests of the courtiers, the crown prince Liu Jin reluctantly accepted, and Qin Tianjian chose the date on the spot, coincidentally, the second day was a good day, and it was not suitable for more than a month after that.

Because his father was seriously ill, Liu Jin asked the enthronement ceremony to be as simple as possible, but the pilgrimage ceremony and the sacrifice to the sky were indispensable.

Listening to the loud bell from the corner tower, Liu Zhi actually felt a sense of relief, from today on, he, Liu Zhi, is no longer the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

At the enthronement ceremony, Liu Zhi was honored as the emperor, Deng Meng was promoted to the queen mother, and the two will move into Yong'an Palace together to live for the rest of their lives.

On the second day, the eldest princess Liu Hua personally sent the Emperor and the Queen Mother to the suburban garden.

On the side of the canal, an inconspicuous freighter started slowly, and Liu Hua snuggled in his mother's arms, his eyes slightly red.

"Father and mother, let my daughter give you another ride."

Liu Zhi was wearing a cloth robe, in good spirits, and touched her head with a smile.

"At most, send it to the mouth of Yangzhou, I will go to sea with your uncle, and I will come back in a few years, and I will bring you overseas gifts when the time comes."

As he spoke, he asked a little ostentatiously, "What gift do you want?" Except for the dragon king in the sea, everything else is fine. ”

Liu Hua was still a little sad, but he was coaxed away by his father's banter attitude, knowing that it was dangerous, but he also knew that this was the wish of his father and mother.

"When the time comes, my father will tell me about the new things on the road, and it will be enough."

Deng Meng wore a modified narrow-sleeved men's dress, with makeup off his face, plain face, but smiling heartily and cleanly, this is an image that Liu Hua has never seen, but he feels for no reason that this should be what his mother should look like.

Under the leadership of Fan Chao, the guards on the ship were all in good spirits, and they had already participated in several years of training at sea and adapted to their life at sea.

Even Zhang Rang was full of smiles, running forward and running happily, and the old dean Zhang Zhi took a few disciples to accompany him on the trip, vowing to read all the medicine in the world......

sent each other all the way, and in the end, Liu Zhi only let her send her to the mouth of the Yangtze River, and the two sides waved goodbye.

Watching the ship slowly disappear into the smoke waves, Liu Hua's tears still couldn't help falling.

"Father, mother, you must come back safely."
