Chapter Seventy-One: The Emperor's Spiritual Sustenance

The apse of the Qianqing Palace.

When Zhu Youzhu woke up, the sun outside had risen very high, and the sunlight came in through the window paper, which was not dazzling, but also made Zhu Youzhu feel warm.

"Your Majesty."

Xiao Jing, who was guarding the edge of the dragon couch, saw the emperor open his eyes and hurried forward.

Zhu Youzhu smiled reluctantly, meaning that he was fine.

I heard someone in the outer hall arguing: "...... It must be a deficiency of qi and blood, and a deficiency of the spleen and stomach...... Yellowish complexion and weakness of muscles and bones are the symptoms. When tonic. ”

"No, Your Majesty should be less yang deficiency, and should nourish yin and replenish yang......"

Probably they knew that the emperor fainted, even if it was loud, it didn't matter, it was better to wake up, and save the use of needles and medicines.

Zhu Youzhu couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, the decoction has been boiled, you can take it while it's hot." Xiao Jing said that he was going to serve the soup medicine.

Zhu Youzhu stretched out his hand to signal that it was not necessary.

A few doctors outside haven't even figured out his condition, so the medicine here is boiled? Can I drink this medicine?

Zhu Youzhu was afraid of taking medicine.

"What about the queen and the crown prince?" Zhu Youzhu asked.

Xiao Jing said: "The queen mother came to visit, and after learning that Your Majesty is fine, she has returned to Kunning Palace first. He also said that his majesty should rest more. The Prince's side...... I didn't know. ”

"Oh." Zhu Youzhu asked again, "Are the ministers of the front hall all dispersed?" ”

Xiao Jing said: "Yes." The ministers were very nervous when they saw His Majesty fainting, and Liu Ge Lao lost his temper and reprimanded those officials in public, telling them to be cautious in their words and deeds, not to provoke His Majesty's anger and blood to rise again, and let them all go back to the government and perform their duties. ”

Zhu Youzhu nodded comfortingly and said, "With Liu Ge Lao and them stabilizing the dynasty, I am much more relieved." It's just that I didn't have a good rest last night, and I was a little excited before, and when I got up, I was too anxious, and my blood didn't come up for a while. After resting for a while, the body has strength. Go and pass Bingkuan to the palace. ”

"Your Majesty?"

Xiao Jing doesn't understand, at this time, you are sick, don't ask the doctor, do you want to find Zhang Zhou?

Zhu Youzhu didn't explain why he did this, and waved his hand: "By the way, several imperial doctors have withdrawn, I want to rest, and Bingkuan will wake me up again." ”

"Yes."

Xiao Jing hurriedly covered Zhu Youzhu with another layer of quilt.

Zhu Youzhu closed his eyes, and his face was fascinated as if he was muttering: "It's so warm." ”

……

……

When Zhang Zhou was ordered to go to the Qianqing Palace, there was no imperial doctor left, and at this time, Dai Yi and them were waiting in front of the apse of the Qianqing Palace after resting.

"Mr. Zhang, please inside." Xiao Jing heard the news and came out to greet him.

Zhang Zhou said: "Your Majesty is resting, so you won't go in and disturb you, right?" ”

Xiao Jing said with a smile: "Your Majesty has woken up and is having dinner, and when I heard that Mr. Zhang was coming, I specially said that Mr. Zhang would go in and talk." ”

In this way, Zhang Zhou was relieved to enter.

But seeing that Zhu Youji was still on the dragon couch, he had already sat down, leaning on a soft pillow, and a little eunuch next to him was serving porridge with a spoon to his mouth.

"Bingkuan is here? Come here! ”

Zhu Youzhu was very happy to see Zhang Zhou, motioned for someone to take the porridge bowl aside, and then beckoned Zhang Zhou to the front, and reached out to hold Zhang Zhou's hand.

Zhang Zhoudeng's hands and feet were a little unnatural.

What kind of routine is this?

"Bingkuan, you are a rare talent in the Ming Dynasty, and I appreciate you very much." Zhu Youzhu said with a smile.

Zhang Zhoudao: "The ministers have not yet given a gift to His Majesty. ”

Zhu Youzhu smiled and said: "No, I called you here to ask you to diagnose me, don't you have a rejuvenation technique?" I want to hear what you think of my condition. ”

"This ......"

Zhang Zhou looked at Dai Yi and Xiao Jing around him.

The two were equally dumbfounded.

Not to mention Zhang Zhou, now even Dai Yi and Xiao Jing can understand that the emperor urgently needs to find a new sustenance after losing Li Guang's "spiritual sustenance".

And this candidate naturally fell to Zhang Zhou, who crushed Li Guang in all aspects of strength and has recently been in the limelight.

The emperor was probably very insecure when he was a teenager, and when he grew up, he had the habit of spiritual dependence, and always liked to find some sustenance.

Zhang Zhou wanted to say.

Your Majesty, this is a mental illness, you should see a psychiatrist, I can't.

Besides, you have a wife and children, why do you trust me?

Don't think I'm an immortal family.

I'm just a poor scholar, and I'm very picky.

Zhang Zhou said very seriously: "Your Majesty, your illness will not be cured by the minister, and the minister is not good at this." ”

"Huh."

Zhu Youzhu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "You don't know how to ask for a doctor, but you treat the princess, and you also prevent the people who have the plague in the capital, and even the prince of England, you also asked Zhijie to send the prescription?" Others try their best to say that they are capable, to win the respect of others, and to win the trust of me, but why should you be self-conscious? ”

Zhang Zhou sighed: "Your Majesty, the minister treats the princess, it is not that the pot is hanging to help the world, but that the minister knows the method of disease prevention. As for His Majesty's illness...... Please forgive the minister for being disrespectful, the minister knows the cause, but he doesn't know where to start. ”

Zhang Zhou's face was serious, different from his usual giggling appearance.

Seeing this, Zhu Youzhu also knew that the situation was serious, and he also became cautious, and said, "It's okay to say it directly. ”

Dai Yi also said nervously: "Mr. Zhang, if you don't say it, how can you prevent it?" Say it. ”

A room full of people looked at Zhang Zhou with eager eyes.

Zhang Zhou really became a master in the eyes of others because he treated the little princess and predicted the fire before, and his words can no longer be used as a joke by others.

"Your Majesty, let's say it directly, Your Majesty is not sick, but poisoned."

Zhang Zhou came up and gave a dose of fierce medicine to the people present.

"Huh?"

Many people present were stunned and frightened, Dai Yi's hand holding the song was trembling, only Zhu Youji's expression looked a little normal.

"Say." Zhu Youzhu said.

"Yes." Zhang Zhou said, "Your Majesty is poisoned by the lead pill, to put it bluntly, Your Majesty has been taking the pill containing lead for a long time in the past few years, this pill may be able to boost Your Majesty's spirit at the beginning, and your physical strength and energy can be guaranteed, but after taking it for a period of time, you will be depressed." Then I had to continue to rely on it, and gradually eat away at His Majesty's bow, so that the bow body was not as good as day by day......"

After listening to Zhang Zhou's words, none of the people around him dared to make a sound.

Zhang Zhou is clearly targeting Li Guang.

said that the emperor was poisoned by Li Guang's chronic poison.

Zhang Zhou is not without purpose, he knows very well that looking at the ancient civilizations of the world, whether it is ancient Rome or Xia, Shang and Zhou, heavy metal poisoning represented by lead has become an aristocratic killer, Europe likes to store wine in lead barrels, and the bronzes of ancient Chinese civilizations have lead residues in smelting.

Because of its soft texture in the mouth, it was used as a utensil to make wine and food more delicious, and many nobles flocked to it.

Ordinary people are not yet able to enjoy this kind of poisoning treatment.

As a result, this "aristocratic disease" has made the average age of the aristocracy generally twenty-five, and it is difficult to live past thirty.

By the Ming Dynasty, lead was rarely seen in general daily utensils, but it was strange that the emperors of the Ming Dynasty almost all believed in the set of immortality, so that they were basically taking the elixir, and the elixir because of the need for heavy metals such as lead in the refining process, also made the emperors of the Ming Dynasty generally die in the prime of life.

The fierce medicine is cool for a while.

Why did Zhu Youzhu have no children after the age of twenty-five? It's not because Empress Zhang can't give birth, and it's not because he doesn't have concubines.

but because he is really false.

The more weak you are, the more you want to make up for it, and the more you make up for it, the worse your body becomes, forming a vicious circle, and in the end you only live to be 35 years old.
