Chapter 363: Caught off guard
Since Ju Shinan resigned, the Son of Heaven began to drink heavily, with Xue Xuanzhi and Lan Jieyu, the eyes and ears of the two eyes and ears went deep into the Zichen Palace, the Queen Mother naturally would not be hidden in the dark, but no matter how much the Queen Mother wanted to do her best to persuade and admonish, but the Son of Heaven was obsessed, even if the Queen Mother ordered the Inner Mansion to no longer provide wine to the Zichen Palace, but he couldn't resist He Yan personally holding the sword to beg for it, and in the end the Queen Mother had no choice but to compromise.
Just the night before Jin An's mother and son entered the palace, the Son of Heaven was drunk again, Chenguang was still in bed and did not wake up, the palace attendants did not dare to disturb, the entire Zichen Hall except for He Ye only Lan Jieyu dared to lie on the couch without edict, originally she had been waiting for the Son of Heaven all night, and she couldn't help but be sleepy in the early morning before taking a break, and when she woke up and went to visit again, she was surprised to see that the Son of Heaven who had not woken up from the hangover did not know when he began to cough up blood, and the brocade thick felt was already stained with blood.
Lan Jieyu was so frightened that she only cried and called for someone to pass on the imperial doctor, but it was only under Lu Li's reminder that she thought of passing on the queen mother's knowledge.
Of course, Lu Li thought that the situation was serious, but if he didn't inform the Queen Mother at this time, once the Tai Hospital heard the news, Hanxiang Hall would immediately know that the Son of Heaven was dying, and then wouldn't the Queen Mother doubt the "loyalty" of him and Qin Sang?
It must not be concealed, and it is impossible for the Son of Heaven who fell into a coma to protect Lu Li and Qin Sang, two people who can only be restrained once they are suspected by the Queen Mother.
At this time, you can only try your best to protect yourself.
The Queen Mother naturally arrived immediately after hearing the news, and then arrived with dozens of palace guards dispatched by Dou Fu'an, who surrounded the Zichen Hall tightly, and no one was allowed to enter unless it was a doctor, and the people in the Zichen Palace naturally couldn't go out a step.
Lu Li was really anxious, but even he was not allowed to enter the hall to listen to He Yan's illness, so he could only stand under the eaves of the corridor outside the hall.
For a whole hour, there was silence in the bedroom of the Son of Heaven, and the life and death of the king of a country were uncertain.
Lu Li watched as the sun broke through the clouds, the snow on the tiles seemed to melt quietly, and the cold dripping under the eaves continued, and the vast thick white seemed to be about to fade, revealing the color that the eaves should have, but the clouds in his heart were getting thicker and thicker.
If the Son of Heaven dies like this, the entire palace is in the hands of the Queen Mother, and they naturally have no chance of winning.
If this is the case, it would be enough, if the Son of Heaven dictated his will before his death, and passed the throne to the King of Jin......
Lu Li glanced at the young prince who rushed to hear the news but was also blocked out of the hall, and at this time, he was anxious to wander outside the corridor, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
If this is the case, the king of Jin will definitely die, and he will not be able to secure it no matter what.
He firmly believes that even if the King of Jin dies, it will inevitably arouse the repeated doubts of the ministers of the clan, and the Queen Mother will also put these behind, even if a palace coup is launched, it is bound to cut the King of Jin to the roots.
And the news that the Son of Heaven is critical, he can't even inform the eleven mother outside the palace.
I only hope that He Yan will not be so confused, and I am confident that as long as he leaves his will, the Queen Mother will not hesitate to obey it.
Then everything may still be in turn.
This is a painful wait, this hour is unprecedentedly long for Lu Li and He Ye.
Finally, the imperial doctors came out one after another, and their faces sank like water.
He Ye rushed forward to catch up, and hurriedly asked, "Brother has ever been awake, how is his condition?" ”
But no one answered him.
The impetuous-hearted Jin King's knuckles were pinched "crackling", and he was about to start asking, although Lu Li was secretly anxious, he knew at this time that he couldn't do anything to dissuade him.
Fortunately, a deep and solemn dry cough suddenly sounded, which stopped King Jin's impulsive behavior in time.
The Queen Mother's face was also as heavy as water, but she didn't see grief, which made Lu Li secretly relieved.
"Mother ......" King Jin couldn't care about those secretive imperial doctors anymore, and forced the queen mother in two steps, but he just spit out these two words, but was gently hugged by the queen mother's arms, not to mention this sudden closeness, Lu Li was dumbfounded, and even He Ye was instantly ossified.
"Ye'er, good boy, you are so worried about Yan'er, it is in vain that he has treated you so kindly over the years, but I only hate Yan'er, I know that I am weak and can no longer drink too much, but I don't care about our heartbreak for him......" Seeing that the Queen Mother was grieving and pouring out her grievances like an ordinary mother at this time, Lu Li only felt a chill rise up his spine.
It's hard to be an eleven mother, in the face of such hypocrisy, she can endure it all these years.
At this time, He Ye also resisted the urge to slap the Queen Mother away, only broke free from the woman's void hug, and still asked anxiously: "Is there anything wrong with Brother?" ”
The Queen Mother finally stopped her mother's pretense, with a light in the corners of her eyes: "Although I am not sober, my breath has finally returned to normal after the needle, although it looks okay at this time, I can no longer indulge in grief and depression and excessive drinking, Ye'er, when your brother wakes up, you have to persuade him well, he refuses to listen to my mother's words, and your brother's advice may be more useful." ”
He Ye was impatient to cooperate with the Queen Mother to perform the drama of "Mother and Son Filial Piety", and he had never been a docile and well-behaved filial son, so he simply threw down the words "Mother put down", and went straight to the bed of the Son of Heaven.
The Queen Mother's eyes were gloomy, and then she looked at Lu Li, who was waiting on the side, and instructed: "Xuanzhi is the living room, and he will stay in the Zichen Hall for a few days, maybe the saint will see the foreign ministers after he wakes up, if the saint has a royal decree, you have to keep in mind the transcription and record, this is your duty." ”
Lu Li naturally understood the meaning of the words, and expected that although the Son of Heaven was critical, he would not die for a while, so it was impossible for the Zichen Palace to be banned by the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was not worried that the Son of Heaven would meet the courtiers in private, leaving behind any edicts that caught her off guard, so he let his eyes and ears who were still in the inspection period "fulfill their duties".
It's just that the Queen Mother is of course also wary of him, so she confessed to stay in Zichen Palace, that is to say, Lu Li temporarily lost the freedom to leave the palace.
The Queen Mother returned to the Hanxiang Palace, which made the imperial doctor who participated in the diagnosis and treatment of first aid today clear the truth: "How is the holy dragon body?" ”
Hearing that those old slippery heads were still talking about the same words as before, the Queen Mother asked her confidants, and a chief physician ordered: "Hugh has to be perfunctory with false remarks again, tell me the truth!" ”
The serious tone made the medical officers tremble, and they bowed to the ground, and the forehead of the imperial doctor was even more attached to the cold ground and did not dare to raise it slightly: "Returning to the Queen Mother, the body of the Holy Dragon is really worrying, I'm afraid it is...... Maybe it can survive the warmth of next year's spring, and the good life will be able to improve. ”
It means that the Son of Heaven is very likely to not be able to survive this cold winter!
Rao is Empress Dowager had already expected the disillusioned and frightened faces of the medical officers who went to the diagnosis and treatment when she saw He Yan's situation today, but she was also shocked by this news, and she almost used all her strength to maintain a posture of not falling down, and sat expressionless for a long time before she said a word of injunction: "Wait a minute, the condition of the Holy Dragon's body is a secret of the monarch's country, if half of the sentence is leaked...... Punished for rebellion! ”
After the medical officers retired, the huge hall fell into a dead silence for a while, and after two moments, Dou Fu'an dared to speak: "The queen mother's festival mourns, the weight of the moment, and the choice of the prince." ”
The Queen Mother has been reclining for a long time with her eyes closed, and only then did she slowly open her eyes when she heard the words, although she was already bloodshot at this moment, she didn't see any tears, some were just solemn and cold.
"You're right, this is not a time of grief, Yan'er has no heirs, only a brother, He Ye is even the son of the first emperor!" The Queen Mother slapped the soft couch heavily, and said sharply: "I worry day and night, and in the end it is still such a result, if the son of the little Cui family is allowed to win this world, how can I be willing?" You won't be blinded when you die! ”
"The Queen Mother, the King of Jin is violent, who in the world doesn't know? Who willingly honors him as a ruler? I believe that although the saint cherishes his siblings, he will not worry about the great cause of the country, and there are some things, when the saint is sober, the queen mother should go to discuss it as soon as possible...... The old slave really thought that Xue Xuanzhi might not be reliable. ”
"Of course, he may not be reliable." The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "Who is really reliable?" Not to mention Mao Weizhi's greed, even Yuan Dezhi is ambitious, have you already found out that Xie's death is behind him?! It's just that Mao Wei and Yuan Dezhi knew at this time that only by relying on me could they support their desires in their chests! ”
"The Queen Mother means...... The Son of Heaven is critical, and even Mao and Yuan Ergong have to hide it temporarily? ”
"Of course you have to hide it, in addition to the two of them, even Rao Ping and Brother must also hide it!" The Queen Mother took a deep breath: "Let me think about this matter, I really want to think about it......"
The Queen Mother secretly calculated here, but after He Yan woke up, she did not give her any opportunity to discuss the establishment of the prince, Zichen Hall was banned for the second time on the same day, but this time it was the imperial decree of the Son of Heaven himself, of course, the palace guards were not mobilized through Dou Fu'an, and the Son of Heaven directly ordered Baiyingwei to be responsible for the ban, and no one was allowed to enter and leave the Zichen Palace without his permission.
After the Queen Mother learned the news, of course, she was even more impatient, but she didn't know that there was "bad news" the next day!
