In the Qianqing Palace, the courtiers lined up to visit the emperor and report various things.

Father-in-law Jing was busy coming out and going in, and just sent off Prime Minister Liu Cheng, and was about to announce the next official who went in, when he suddenly saw a post man running towards the palace gate with a paper bag on his back.

"Four hundred miles in an emergency! Four hundred miles expedited! The postman shouted as he ran, and all the civil and military generals dodged away to make way for him.

This kind of urgent express delivered directly to the emperor by the post guards cannot be delayed, and whoever dares to stand in his way is a grave crime.

"Get out of the way!" As soon as Gonggong Jing shook off the dust, all the palace maids and eunuchs flashed to both sides.

"Where's the urgency?" Father-in-law Jing stepped forward to ask.

"Jiangnan Emergency." The postman ran out of breath, standing still, but he didn't mean to hand over the paper bag to Grandpa Jing.

This post guard is directly responsible to the emperor, and no one in the middle is allowed to transfer it.

"Come in with us." Gonggong Jing walked briskly inward, followed by the postman.

Jiangnan urgently, these four words are like a boulder thrown into the well, stirring up a thousand waves in an instant.

Jiangnan has always been a major problem for the emperor's henchmen, and the flood disasters have been cured every year, and it is difficult to calm down every year.

This year, the minister who went to Jiangnan was assassinated, and then the prince who went to Jiangnan to inspect was killed.

"It's okay, the four-hundred-mile rush must not be a military priority, and Jiangnan should be stable." Hussar General Yu Dongqing listened to the courtiers and alarmist, and there would be a catastrophe in the south of the Yangtze River, and he shook his head gently.

If the officers and soldiers rebel and the people revolt, they must be reported with an expedited 800-mile rush, and the 400-mile expedited should not be a first-class urgent matter.

Kunning Palace was always observing the movements of the Qianqing Palace, and as soon as the post guard entered, someone reported to the queen.

"Jiangnan Emergency?" The queen stood up suddenly, at this time, the Jiangnan emergency report will definitely not be a good thing, what kind of chaos is there in Jiangnan?

At present, only the fifth prince and the seventh prince are the strongest contenders for the crown prince's position, is it a good thing or a bad thing for something to happen in Jiangnan at this time?

As soon as the queen heard that there was an urgent report in Jiangnan, the Qianqing Palace sent someone over.

"Minions, see the queen mother." The little eunuch of the Qianqing Palace entered the house and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Well, what's the matter?" No matter how much grass grows in the queen's heart, her face is still as stable as Mount Tai.

"Your Majesty invites the queen to clear the palace for deliberations."

The queen immediately set up a sedan chair and went to the Qianqing Palace, and walked to the inner room to see that the emperor was still lying idle, and her complexion was not as good as the previous two days.

"The concubine greets Your Majesty." How much resentment the queen has in her heart against the emperor can't be seen on her face.

"Sit down." The emperor waved his hand slightly, and the palace maid moved the embroidery pier to the bedside.

The Empress sat down gently, and the Emperor half-sat up with the help of the little eunuch, leaning against the thick cushions behind him.

"I don't know what the emperor summoned his concubines to discuss?" The queen is too lazy to pretend to be with the emperor, and she doesn't even ask about her condition.

The emperor let out a long sigh and lowered his eyelids to not show a little light. He took a recital from the quilt and handed it to the queen. The queen took the report and opened it to look at it carefully.

It turned out to be a report sent by the governor of Liangjiang, and the victims of the disaster in Jiangnan gathered all people's affairs, looted grain stores, smashed the streets, and even the offices of some state officials were disturbed and could not operate normally.

In addition, many officials' family members were robbed and killed, and officials reported one after another asking for their resignation and return to the fields.

The whole of Jiangnan fell into a state of semi-war, with officials corrupt and violent, bandits rampant, and the people living in poverty.

"The war in the north is tight, the west has just been peaceful and needs to recuperate, and the natural disaster in the south of the Yangtze River has just passed." The emperor's face was full of sorrow, and he had to breathe for a while when he said a word. "Yuanhong's coffin has already sent someone to greet him, and according to what you said, it will be placed in the Yanqing Buddhist Monastery first, and the tomb will be built and buried on a certain day."

Speaking of Emperor Ye Gu Yuanhong, he coughed again, he held a white silk silk in his hand to cover his mouth, and after a while, through a touch of red on the silk, the emperor's cough stabilized and hurriedly held the silk in the palm of his hand.

But this scene can't hide from the queen's eyes, if a person coughs up blood, he is basically hopeless. The medical conditions of Tanglin are the same, whether it is bronchitis or tuberculosis, and it is not curable.

The queen only glanced at it intentionally or unintentionally, but lowered her head and pretended not to see anything.

"Jiangnan has become a pot of porridge at this time, I intend to send the emperor to Jiangnan again, who do you think is safer to send?"

Now there is no one to send, only the fifth and seventh are left. The third, sixth, ninth and crown princesses were all put in prison, and the emperor pretended not to know.

"This is a state matter, and the concubines dare not speak falsely. It's just that there are a few things that the concubine has to play, and I was afraid that His Majesty would be angry when he heard it, and I wanted to play it again in a few days. ”

Seeing that the emperor had reached the point of running out of oil and drying up, his heart was not so jealous.

"But it doesn't hurt." The Emperor leaned back weakly.

"The Third Highness had an affair with the crown princess, the sixth highness **** harem, and the ninth highness led troops to force the palace, and all of them were temporarily imprisoned in the prison by the concubines. Concubine Hui did not abide by the palace rules, and instigated the maidservant to openly seduce the prince, and the concubine had already sent her into the cold palace. ”

The emperor coughed sharply when he heard this, and the silk soon turned bright red, and the emperor threw the silk silk into the spittoon, and the little eunuch stroked his chest and patted his back, and the emperor gasped for a while and regained his calm.

"You? You? The emperor trembled and pointed at the empress, but he finally had no strength to say anything, and the little eunuch helped him to lie down slowly.

"Your Majesty, according to the opinion of the concubines, it is better to send the Seven Princes to appease the people of Jiangnan, his excellent martial arts will not live up to the expectations of the saints."

Seeing that there were only a few palace maids and eunuchs in this inner room today, the queen asked, "Why is Emperor Jing's concubine not here?" The emperor can discuss it with Emperor Jing's concubine. ”

"Back to the queen's mother, Emperor Jing and the concubine will go back to Tiancao Palace to prepare to do the dojo for His Royal Highness the Prince." The little eunuch on the side bowed down and answered.

The queen sneered: "It's still a deep mother-son relationship, the emperor's illness like this is not as important as her dead son." ”

The emperor changed into a snow-white silk silk and covered his mouth and coughed, and the silk soon became bright red again.

"You?" The emperor panted and pointed at her and said, "I summoned you to discuss the matter, even if I still treated you as the queen, you are so disrespectful." ”

The emperor covered his chest and gasped again, the queen just wanted to be angry with him directly, where did he care about the system?

"It's not that the concubines don't care about the system, but Your Majesty, you used the wrong heart on Emperor Jing's concubine. People didn't care about you from beginning to end, and the concubine just told the truth. ”

The emperor did not cough or wheezing this time, but said very weakly: "Hugh gossip, my time is running out, there are a few important things to explain to you, you must not be deceived." ”
