"Empress Dowager Gao is critically ill!"

This news suddenly spread in the palace!

The concubines of the harem couldn't help but have complicated thoughts, and then they remembered that there was a former ruler of the Great Song Dynasty in the harem.

When the Empress Dowager and Empress Meng heard the news, they immediately led the concubines of the harem to visit, especially Empress Meng, she was the official queen appointed by the Empress Dowager Gao, and now that the Empress Dowager Gao is critically ill, she naturally visits more.

"The Empress Dowager!"

When the news reached the court, the officials couldn't help but sigh.

Many officials can't help but compare the changes in the Great Song Dynasty in the past four years, the Great Song Dynasty led by the Empress Dowager Gao four years ago was weak and bullied, and Liaoxia was pressing forward step by step.

Four years later, the Great Song Dynasty defeated the Western Xia in a row, and took advantage of the benefits of the Silk Road to abolish the New Year currency and restart the new French power.

"If Empress Dowager Gao is in power, can the Great Song Dynasty have today?"

Many officials secretly compared themselves in their hearts, and finally shook their heads.

Empress Dowager Gao is conservative and stubborn, and she has entered her old age, I am afraid that even if Fan Zheng puts the evil prescription in front of her, she will not take a look.

No! With Empress Dowager Gao's conservative character, I'm afraid Fan Zheng has no chance to put the evil party in front of Empress Dowager Gao.

There were also people who regretted what happened to the Empress Dowager Gao, but with the continuous victory of the Great Song Dynasty, more and more officials stood on Zhao Xu's side, and now it is even more compared to the rebellion of the Liang clan in Western Xia, and the scourge of listening to the government has been exposed.

……………………

The news reached Zhao Xu's ears, and he was silent for a while: "Order the Imperial Physician's Department, make every effort to heal the Empress Dowager, and send ten thousand years of ginseng for the Empress Dowager to take medicine." ”

Although Zhao Xu seized power from the hands of the Empress Dowager Gao, after all, the Empress Dowager Gao raised him as an adult and made him the emperor, this kindness still exists, and the reason why he summoned Fan Zheng to the palace was to see a doctor for the Empress Dowager Gao, so he naturally wanted to make every effort to save the Empress Dowager Gao.

"Yes!" Tong Guan bowed.

After Tong Guan returned, he took this opportunity to take the initiative to serve by Zhao Xu's side, after all, for eunuchs, the emperor's trust was the source of their power.

At the moment, a large number of imperial doctors and Empress Dowager Gao's dormitory treatment, all shook their heads, and all the imperial doctors made it clear after diagnosis and treatment that Empress Dowager Gao had dried up and dried up.

"The Empress Dowager already has a stubborn illness, if it weren't for the fact that the doctors have specialized in geriatric diseases in these years, and the royal family has not hesitated to use precious medicinal materials, this has only been a four-year life!" Qian Yi said helplessly.

If it were an ordinary family, with Empress Dowager Gao's condition, I am afraid that she would not be able to stand it for a long time, and she still spared no manpower and material resources, coupled with many precious medicinal materials, which allowed Empress Dowager Gao to live for four more years.

"Birth, old age, sickness and death, physical normality, doctors can only continue their lives, but they can't change their lives against the sky." Yang Jie on the side sighed.

Empress Dowager Gao was seriously ill, and the doctors naturally did not dare to slack off, not only did the imperial doctor order Qian Yi to diagnose it personally, but even the famous folk doctor Yang Jie also came to consult, and the result was naturally the same.

"The Empress Dowager ordered Fan Taicheng to diagnose and treat her!"

Suddenly, a palace maid walked out of the queen mother's bedroom and said loudly.

In an instant, all the healers were silent.

No one in the world knows that it was the official family who seized power from the hands of the Empress Dowager Gao, and the evil doctor Fan Zheng made great contributions.

For fear of irritating the Empress Dowager Gao, Qian Yi and Yang Jie both personally treated the Empress Dowager Gao, but Fan Zheng did not go, but who would have thought that the Empress Dowager Gao would personally name Fan Zheng for her diagnosis and treatment.

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Fan Zheng on the side.

"Wechen obeys!"

At that moment, Fan Zheng took a deep breath and solemnly walked into the Empress Dowager Gao's bedroom.

Inside the dormitory!

Empress Dowager Gao leaned back on the bed, saw Fan Zheng come in, her eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of essence, although she had lived in the palace for a long time, but she also learned about Fan Zheng's great achievements from the palace newspaper, not to mention his achievements in medical skills, even the defeat of Western Xia was something she could not do during her reign.

"Weichen Fan Zheng was ordered to come to treat the Empress Dowager!" Fan Zheng stepped forward to salute.

However, Empress Dowager Gao shook her head and said: "The mourning family asked you to come, not to let you cure the illness of the mourning family, but to ask if the illness of the official family has been cured." ”

"The disease of the official family?"

Fan Zheng's heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of the original scene, when he was summoned by Zhao Xu into the palace, the Empress Dowager Gao secretly summoned him, Fan Zheng revealed Zhao Xu's rebellious heart disease, and took advantage of the Empress Dowager Gao's doting psychology.

"Thanks to the Empress Dowager's Hong Fu, the rebellious heart disease of the official family has been cured." Fan Zheng bowed.

Not only is it a recovery, Zhao Xu showed that everyone did not expect, after defeating the rebellious mentality, Zhao Xu can simply be called a generation of Mingjun.

Empress Dowager Gao shook her head slightly and said, "No! The heart disease of the official family still lacks a medicine before it can be completely cured. ”

"Please also ask the Empress Dowager for advice."

Fan Zheng looked at the Empress Dowager Gao in confusion, and didn't understand when the Empress Dowager Gao also became a master of the apricot forest.

Empress Dowager Gao sighed faintly: "This last medicine is the life of the mourning family, only when the mourning family dies, the heart disease of the official family can be cured." ”

Fan Zheng couldn't help but be shocked, and Huo Ran looked up at the Empress Dowager Gao.

"The Empress Dowager is too worried, and the official family has no such intention." Fan Zheng frowned.

Now that the Empress Dowager Gao has lost her power, if the official family wants to harm the Empress Dowager Gao, there is a chance, rather than ordering the doctor to do his best to heal.

Over the years, the doctors have invested the medical resources of the Great Song Dynasty in the body of the Empress Dowager Gao, and only then did Mrs. Gao live for four years, which shows that the official family has no intention of harming the Empress Dowager Gao.

Empress Dowager Gao nodded and said: "Of course the mourning family knows that the official family is brought up by the mourning family, although he has a strong personality, is proud of his father, and does not like to be conservative in old age, but he is still a kind-hearted person, and he can't do anything to take the life of the mourning family." ”

"The Queen Mother is wise!" Fan Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and said that if Empress Dowager Gao openly accused the official family of harming his life, I am afraid that Zhao Xu's reputation would be damaged.

Empress Dowager Gao shook her head and said: "However, there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country!" This is the truth since ancient times, no one is willing to let go of the supreme power, the Liang family of the Western Xia has two queens, and has held the imperial power of the Western Xia for decades, so there is the disaster of the Liang rebellion, but the disaster of the Western Xia is not over, the Empress Dowager Xiao Liang and the little emperor of the Western Xia must repeat the old things of the Empress Dowager Liang and Emperor Hui, until one person dies. ”

Fan Zheng couldn't help but be shocked, he didn't expect that Empress Dowager Gao was old and spicy, and he directly predicted the ending of Empress Dowager Xiaoliang.

Empress Dowager Gao disagreed: "What's the accident here, power is the biggest poison in the world, once you taste power, no one is willing to let go, how is it not the case with the mourning family, the first emperor entrusted Xu'er to me, agreed to return to power at the age of sixteen, and the age of the official family has arrived, and the mourning family is greedy for power on the grounds that the official family is young and lacks experience in governance, and betrays the promise of the first emperor back then, so that the official family later took the initiative to seize power." ”

At the last moment of her life, the Empress Dowager Gao no longer shy away from it, and directly revealed her heart, no matter what the reason, the Empress Dowager Gao did not take the initiative to return the power, that is, she broke the contract first.

"The Queen Mother is reasonable."

Fan Zheng arched his hand.

Fan Zheng complimented in his mouth, but he understood in his heart that the Empress Dowager Gao could only clearly understand herself after losing power, and if the Empress Dowager Gao was in power today, I am afraid that she would never say this.

"The thousand-year-old ginseng that hangs its life is no longer needed, and only when the mourning family dies can the official family really show their skills." Empress Dowager Gao said weakly, waving her hand to let Fan Zheng retreat.

Five days later, Empress Dowager Gao died.

"The Imperial Grandmother has died!"

When Zhao Xu got the news, he couldn't help but be stunned, once Empress Dowager Gao was a mountain above his head, which made him feel extremely depressed, and now that he is really in power, he really understands that position is not easy to sit.

Especially a sixteen-year-old boy who dominates the fate of an empire, even if he looks back, it is still an extremely risky thing.

He tried his best to change the law and try to become stronger, just to prove to the Empress Dowager Gao that his original seizure of power was correct.

However, when he had just made some achievements, Empress Dowager Gao passed away suddenly.

"Spread the decree, posthumously crown the Empress Dowager as Empress Xuanren Shenglie, and bury Yonghou Mausoleum with Yingzong!"

Zhao Xu said bitterly.

"Yes!" Tong Guan bowed his head and responded.

"Also, it is decreed that Zhao Hao, the king of Yong, will immediately return to Beijing for mourning." Zhao Xu thought about it and added another holy decree.

During the reign of Empress Dowager Gao, King Yong Zhao Hao was his biggest opponent, and even wanted to get on the throne for a while, but now that Empress Dowager Gao has died, he has stabilized the imperial power for four years, and King Yong is no longer a threat.

Tong Guan nodded in command.

"Empress Dowager Gao has died!"

With Zhao Xu's holy decree issued, the news spread throughout the government and the opposition at the fastest speed.

"The Empress Dowager!"

Lu Dafang's heart sank, Empress Dowager Gao still had a high prestige in the hearts of the old party, especially during the reign of Empress Dowager Gao, the power of the old party reached its peak.

Although he supported the official family at a critical moment for the position of prime minister, he understood that with the death of the Empress Dowager Gao, the official family would no longer have any restraint.

"Empress Dowager Gao has passed away!" The New Party official sighed in his heart.

During the reign of Empress Dowager Gao, it dealt a devastating blow to the New Party, and almost all the New Party members were expelled from the court.

Of course, for the medical party, it is more of a pity, once they used the banner of studying the disease for the Empress Dowager Gao, using the funds of the imperial court to study many diseases, and now that the Empress Dowager Gao has died, I am afraid that the funds for the study of the underlying diseases of the elderly will not be so sufficient in the future.

But fortunately, the doctor has grown, and all the cities in the world have hospitals, which are enough to bear the follow-up funds.

Kaifeng City, full of vegetarian food.

During the reign of Empress Dowager Gao, although there was no brilliance, the politics were also clear, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the people of the Great Song Dynasty sang many praises.

At the same time, the Great Song Dynasty sent envoys to the Liao State and the Western Xia respectively, asking them to inform the Empress Dowager Gao of the death of illness, and asking them to send envoys to mourn.

Although the three kingdoms of Liaoxia and Song often fought hostile wars, but for the monarch, there should be all the etiquette, after all, the Empress Dowager Gao has been in power for eight years, in fact, it is already the treatment of the king, and it is natural to notify the two countries of Liaoxia to come to mourn.

"Empress Dowager Gao has passed away!"

Shangjing, Liao,

When Yelu Hongji got the news of the Great Song Dynasty, he couldn't help but sigh.

During the reign of Empress Dowager Gao, Yelu Hongji also admired her and thought that she was a female middle Yaoshun.

"I didn't expect that Empress Dowager Gao had passed away, and it was not far from me to come to me!" Yelu Hongji sighed.

The two are of the same age, and even the Empress Dowager Gao is younger than him, the Empress Dowager Gao has died, and the older one may not have much time left.

Yelu Yanxi complimented on the side: "The emperor's grandfather will definitely be able to live a long life, so my grandson will send someone to send some more thousand-year-old ginseng for the emperor's grandfather to maintain his body." ”

Yelu Hongji shook his head and said, "Doesn't the Great Song Dynasty have thousand-year-old ginseng?" Empress Dowager Gao is not still weak to return to heaven, the Great Song Dynasty doctor clearly said that ginseng can only be hanged, not brought back to life, and my grandfather's body is clear, I'm afraid it won't be long, but I'm afraid I won't be able to face your grandmother and father shamelessly. ”

Yelu Hongji couldn't help but flash a trace of guilt, he mistakenly believed the slander of the treacherous minister Yelu Yixin, thinking that the queen Xiao Guanyin was disloyal and was directly executed, and later killed his only son, the crown prince Yelu Jun.

Fortunately, he was vigilant and put the emperor's grandson by his side to raise him personally, so that Yelu Yanxi escaped.

Yelu Yanxi looked at Yelu Hongji in a complicated way, this was both his enemy and his relative, and even he didn't know how to comfort Yelu Hongji.

After a long time, Yelu Hongji woke up from his memory.

"Come on, send two teams of messengers, one team to the Song Kingdom to mourn the Empress Dowager Gao. A team went to the Xia Kingdom to mourn the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang. Yelu Hongji ordered.

Yelu Yanxi couldn't help but be stunned, and immediately reminded: "The emperor's grandfather is mistaken, it was the Minister of State Liang Yiqi who died in Western Xia, not the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang. ”

Yelu Hongji shook his head and said: "Grandfather is not mistaken, now the Great Song Dynasty is powerful, and the official Zhao Xu of the Great Song Dynasty has a generation of heroic style, but the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang of the Western Xia has repeatedly made mistakes, so that the national strength of the Western Xia has fallen again and again, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Western Xia to cause fetters to the Great Song Dynasty, and the culprit of all this is on the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang." ”

Compared with the Empress Dowager Gao, who had just passed away, the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, who also ruled Western Xia, was very different from her, coupled with the repeated defeats of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, and her disrespectful remarks about the Liao State, Yelu Hongji was extremely displeased with it.

"Grandfather Huang means to get rid of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang." Yelu Yanxi was shocked.

You must know that the Liao State is an ally of the Western Xia, and if the Liao State gets rid of the Empress Dowager Xiao Liang, this is not to declare war on the Western Xia.

Yelu Hongji shook his head and said: "Empress Dowager Xiao Liang took the initiative to get rid of the Liang family, she was already a rootless Ping in Western Xia, and it was easy to get rid of her, I only need to ask the envoy to go to Western Xia with a bottle of wine, and then let Empress Dowager Xiao Liang ambush her." ”

"Ahh

Yelu Yanxi couldn't believe what he heard, the emperor's grandfather actually wanted to use wine to directly kill the queen mother of a country.

"Are you the future emperor of Liao, you can't have a stigma, I don't have a few years left, I will do this kind of dirty work for you." Yelu Hongji looked at Yelu Yanxi with a loving face.

"Imperial grandfather!"

Yelu Yanxi was immediately moved, although Yelu Hongji had done too many wrong things, he had no reservations about him.

"I have already chosen the royal daughter Yelu Nanxian, the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang died, let her be pro-Western Xia, and the little emperor of Western Xia to govern Western Xia, integrate the Western Xia Liao State into one, and jointly fight against the Great Song Dynasty, remember that the Song State is the biggest opponent of my Great Liao." Yelu Hongji commanded.

"Remember, grandson!"

Yelu Yanxi bowed solemnly. (End of chapter)
