Zhu Ji is critically ill, this is a hurricane, the high-level of the entire Liang State has become turbulent again, the palace can not be calm, Zhu Ji's health has been bad, addicted to wine, it is no secret in the high-level of the Liang State, especially since the Yellow Turban Uprising for a period of time, Zhu Ji coughed up blood many times, everyone can see that Zhu Ji's body has become a little terminally ill, but no one thought that Zhu Ji's body would deteriorate to such an extent that many people could not react.

The entire palace became in full swing, and eunuchs, palace maids, and imperial doctors could be seen everywhere.

When Qiu Minghai came, there were already a lot of people outside the imperial study, Mu Renfu, Xiao Teng, Ji Xuan, Fu Tianqiu and several other court ministers, as well as the eldest prince Zhu Hongyi, the second prince Zhu Hongji and others, but these people were waiting outside the imperial study, and they were faintly divided into three factions, Ji Xuan, Fu Tianqiu, and Zhu Hongji stood together, Xiao Teng was alone, Mu Renfu and the eldest prince Zhu Hongyi, Qiu Minghai was silent, and walked next to Mu Renfu and Zhu Hongyi.

Everyone glanced at each other, but no one spoke, and waited respectfully outside the imperial study.

"Squeak-"

After about a stick of incense, the door of the imperial study was opened, and a eunuch walked out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Highness, Your Majesty has woken up, come in with me. ”

In the imperial study, Zhu Ji was lying on the bed, his face was as pale as paper, his lips were bloodless, in front of the bed was an imperial doctor who was taking the pulse, and next to him stood Queen Xiao and a few eunuchs and palace maids, but it could be seen that the imperial doctor's condition was not good, and his face was full of sweat.

"The son-in-law Hongyi (Hongji) has seen his father and his mother. ”

"Wechen meets the king and the queen"

Zhu Hongyi, Qiu Minghai and others came in. Saluted to Zhu Ji on the bed and Queen Xiao beside the bed.

Zhu Ji didn't speak, lying on the bed. His face was terribly pale, but he just glanced at Zhu Hongyi and the others. Her eyes looked hollow and she looked critically ill, and Queen Xiao waved her hand-

"Get up, don't be polite. ”

At this time, the imperial doctor also helped Zhu Ji finish his pulse.

"Imperial Doctor, how is my father's health?" Zhu Hongyi was the first to speak, looking at the imperial physician and asked, with a look of concern, and the eyes of the others also looked at the imperial physician. Zhu Ji's faint eyes also looked over.

"This, this" The imperial doctor was sweating, as if he couldn't speak.

Seeing this scene, the hearts of everyone present sank.

"You should say it quickly, how is my father's body" Zhu Hongji also spoke, eagerly.

"That, Your Majesty has been weak for a long time, and he has drunk a lot, which has led to a weak body. Yang Qi is lost, and now the qi and blood are withered, and the pulse is weak, I'm afraid"

The Imperial Physician trembled slightly. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and when he said this, he didn't dare to say any more. As a royal doctor, he personally diagnosed and treated Zhu Ji. He naturally knew Zhu Ji's situation, and his body had completely collapsed. Even if he survived this time, it was only a long breath, but he never dared to say these again, everyone present was not a fool, and he couldn't hear the meaning anywhere, to put it bluntly, Zhu Ji's body was not good and he was going to hang

"Nonsense, it's just nonsense, someone is coming, drag this nonsense-filled person out and behead me"

Zhu Hongyi's face was furious, and he shouted directly.

"Don't, Your Highness spare your life, Your Highness spare your life, Weichen has done his best, His Highness spare his life"

When the imperial doctor heard this, his face changed instantly, his face was frightened, and he hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy

"Pull it out, cut it. ”

Zhu Hongyi shouted, and then saw two soldiers walk in, directly ignoring the imperial doctor's plea for mercy, and dragged them out

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Wechen has done his best, tried his best"

The imperial doctor's mournful pleading voice came from afar, but no one in the audience paid attention to it, the most ruthless emperor's family, in this place of the palace, dead people are too common, except for a few timid palace maids and eunuchs next to them, their faces were a little pale with fright, everyone else was silent, lowered their heads, and looked at Zhu Ji on the bed with the corner of their eyes, and it could be seen that the chest of the host fell together, and a trace of flushing appeared on the pale face, and the mood was not calm.

"I, are you really going to die like this?" After a long while, Zhu Ji's somewhat weak voice sounded, and his eyes were full of unwillingness: "However, I still want to live a few more years, decades or even hundreds of years, he Liu Bang can still live a hundred years old, I am ordered by heaven, unwilling."

"Your Majesty, why should you be like this, Your Majesty is at the peak of his life, and he will definitely live a long life. Queen Xiao said.

"Yes, my father is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, but he is overworked day and night on state affairs, and he is too tired.

Zhu Hongji said, Zhu Ji didn't speak, Ji Xuan, Mu Renfu and others next to him naturally wouldn't say much at this sensitive time, Zhu Hongji signaled to one of your eunuchs who was narrating, and the latter left, not long after, about half a pillar of incense time, another imperial doctor walked in, he was gray, I don't know if he was in too much a hurry or for what reason, his forehead was sweating

"Doctor, how is my father? ”

About after the tea time, the imperial doctor finished checking Zhu Ji's pulse, and Zhu Hongji couldn't help but speak.

"Your Majesty's body is weak, your qi and blood are defeated, Wei Chen will prescribe a pair of medicines, and he will be able to recover that His Majesty in a short time. The Imperial Physician said.

"Really. Zhu Hongji looked surprised, and a glimmer of brilliance appeared in Zhu Ji's eyes on the bed.

The imperial doctor didn't say anything, but quickly wrote out a pharmacy, handed it to Queen Xiao next to him, and then said-

"However, Your Majesty's body is very weak, your qi and blood are depleted, and Wechen can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and if you want Your Majesty to recover completely, Wechen can't do anything. ”

"Is there really no way?" asked Zhu Hongyi.

"Forgiveness is incompetent. ”

The imperial doctor arched his hand, in fact, he still had something to say in his heart, Zhu Ji was afraid that he would not live long, because he knew that Zhu Ji's body had weakened to a point, and the prescription he prescribed just now was just some to replenish the body, and it could only allow Zhu Ji to recover temporarily, and it might not be half a month later, it would be more serious, at that time, no one could do anything, in fact, the current Zhu Ji is just surviving, but he is very smart, and he knows that this is absolutely impossible to say, otherwise he will lose his head and make up his mind that Zhu Ji, after today, he will find a way to leave the royal capital as soon as possible and stay away from this place of right and wrong

There was a dull silence in the imperial study again, there was a kind of depression, which made people panic, and sweat broke out on the forehead of the imperial doctor, and he was worried that he would not be like the previous imperial doctor

"Your Majesty, the minister thought of a person, maybe he can save His Majesty, not only to save His Majesty, but also to prolong His Majesty's life"

At this moment, a voice sounded in the crowd, and it was Qiu Minghai who stood up.

"I wonder if Your Majesty has ever heard of the elixir of life. Qiu Minghai said.

"Immortality. The faces of everyone present changed, and Zhu Ji's eyes on the bed also burst into light in an instant, looking at Qiu Minghai.

"According to legend, Qin Shi Huang once collected the world's elixir and found a monk to refine the elixir, although in the end Qin Shi Huang bleed the Yangtze River, and the elixir of life has become a legend, but as far as the minister knows, although there is not necessarily an elixir at this time, there are some elixirs that prolong life and increase longevity."

"Longevity. Hearing Qiu Minghai's words, Zhu Ji's face flushed a little, and he looked at Qiu Minghai.

"It just so happened that Weichen got acquainted with a monk named Pudu Cihang back then, not only the Dharma is boundless, but also good at refining pills, if she makes a move, she can ask for pills from her, Your Majesty's illness will definitely be able to be cured to get rid of the disease, and prolong life."

"Pudu Cihang, where is this person?" Zhu Ji spoke, his tone was a little excited, while the others looked at Qiu Minghai, and Ji Xuan's eyes flickered.

"Pudu Cihang is a master of Buddhism, living on the small spiritual mountain in the north, if the time is fast, you can get the elixir in half a month. "Qiu Minghaidao.

"In any case, I want you to get the elixir. ”

"No!"

Zhu Ji ordered directly, Qiu Minghai responded in a low voice, his face was very calm, and he couldn't see much change, Mu Renfu, Ji Xuan and others had different faces, but the imperial doctor was relieved, he knew that no matter what the result was, he could be regarded as having escaped today.

"Alright, all of you, stand down, I'm tired."

"Wechen (son-in-law) retire!"

"Master Fu has ever heard of Xiao Lingshan and Pudu Cihang. Leaving the imperial study, at the gate of the palace, Ji Xuan asked Fu Tianqiu next to him.

"I don't know, Xiao Lingshan has heard of it, but Pudu Cihang has never heard of it, what's the matter, does Master Ji have any doubts?" Fu Tianqiu looked at Ji Xuan.

"No, just ask, as far as Wen You knows, the war of the self-proclaimed gods, Buddhism is far away, rarely appears in the world, and today there is a Mingtai Temple in the Han Kingdom, when, I also have Buddhist monks in Liang Kingdom"

"This, I don't know, but since Lord Qiu said so, there must be something to do, as long as Your Majesty can get better, it is the most important thing."

Fu Tianqiu said, Ji Xuan just nodded, but he didn't answer, a trace of concern flashed in his eyes, now Ning Caichen is about to enter Beijing, but Zhu Ji is critically ill at this time, and Qiu Minghai jumped out at this time, which made him instinctively feel that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't think of anything wrong for a while, maybe he thought about it too much (to be continued). )
