Gold flows in August and fire flows in July. The capital in July is the turn of summer and autumn. The tiger in autumn releases its power to its fullest, and the weather is very hot. After more than half a year, the bustling metropolis in the capital has completely emerged from the shadow of Altan's besieged last year, and has returned to its former lively life, with a permanent population of over one million.

Since the 26th day of next month is the happy day for Princess Yongfu to get married, the city is bustling with people. The nine major city gates are full of traffic, the vassal kings who come to the capital to congratulate, envoys from various countries, local officials and gentry, and vendors from afar, etc., are endless, and they are one after another, which is a prosperous moment!

The busiest thing at this time is naturally the Ministry of Rites. Officials at all levels are busy. Ordinary families need three books and six rituals to get married. The rules for the marriage of the Ming princess are naturally more complicated. Otherwise, how can it highlight the princess’ identity as a golden branch and a jade leaf?

The busiest of the Ministry of Rites is Yan Song, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites. As the saying goes, you won’t bother the two masters in one matter. Yan Song was appointed as the marriage envoy before, but now he is assigned as the marriage envoy to be responsible for the marriage of Princess Yongfu. He is so popular. It is estimated that it will be a foregone conclusion after the matter is completed.

In addition, Yan Song's previous proposal to share the sacrifices of heaven, earth, sun and moon among the four suburbs has been approved. The Ministry of Works is stepping up the construction of the Temple of Heaven, Earth, Sun and Moon. Once these four altars are completed and put into use, Yan Song, as the leader, will naturally be rewarded according to his merits, and it is possible to restore the position of Minister of Rites at that time.

Therefore, our Lord Yan is now proud and his career is bright. Of course, his wealth is bright. As the princess's marriage envoy, he is responsible for organizing the wedding. The money he handles is a huge sum of money, and the random leaks of his fingers are quite considerable. Yan Shifan, as his left arm and right arm, naturally gets the moon first.

Speaking of which, Yan Shifan is indeed a good guy. Although the money he pulled out would not be handed over to him directly, this guy is good at dancing and gets familiar with the eunuchs in the palace who are responsible for purchasing. They jointly designate a "supplier" and then take kickbacks, and eats extraordinary hapi.

On the third day of the seventh day of the fifth year of Jiajing, the cabinet, Fei Hong, the chief minister, held the good news sent by Xu Jin to send back from Japan, and smiled with his hands on his long beard.

This good news was sent back to China after Xu Jinping destroyed Wang Zhi and his son. It was in mid-May. Due to the long journey, it was delivered to the capital one and a half months later. This was the ancient normal state of backward communications - the news had serious lag.

Xu Jin's memorial not only made a victory, but also proposed the idea of ​​abolishing the emperor and splitting Japan into four major pieces.

Although the three old men in the cabinet who are well-read in poetry and books are usually full of benevolence, righteousness and righteousness, but for their own country, it is completely different for other countries, and fully develops the politician's black-hearted nature.

As soon as he agreed to Xu Jin's idea, Jin Xianmin also proposed to "invit" the Japanese king to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, the three elders of the cabinet wrote their opinions on paper and handed them over to the Silijian to submit them to the palace for the emperor to make a reply. This is the so-called vote, and the emperor used a red pen to make a reply.

The last Emperor Zhengde gave his power to Liu Jin, the eunuch of Silijian, who led to Liu Jin, the eunuch of Silijian, who led to the conquest of Liu Jin. However, Bi Yun, the eunuch of Silijian, of Jiajing Dynasty, did not have such a blessing. He did not have the power to criticize the pen. Every time he received the memorial, he would honestly give it to Jiajing for a while. Moreover, Bi Yun was old and could not do anything. He had already handed a resignation letter to Boss Zhu, waiting for other young eunuchs to take over his shift.

Let’s talk about the fact that in the Ganqing Palace, Eunuch Bi took Xu Jin’s memorial and laughed excitedly after reading it: “Xu Qing has never disappointed me, haha, I have also made more than two million taels of silver for me.”

Eunuch Bi smiled and reminded: "Emperor, there are five million taels that the Japanese girl Orishimiko owed. With the means of Marquis Jinghai, you have to pay it back. Moreover, when Marquis Jinghai returns to triumphantly, it is estimated that more than two million taels will be shipped back. Didn't Marquis Jinghai transport five million taels last time when Marquis Jinghai returned from Japan? Is it necessary to congratulate the emperor in advance and congratulate the emperor?"

Jiajing laughed again after hearing this: "You old guy, you can choose something nice to say, haha, Xu Qing is really my blessing, how should I reward him?"

Zhu Houyan seemed to be talking to himself, and also asked Bi Yun. However, although Eunuch Bi was honest and mediocre, he was not an idiot. He did not dare to speak randomly about rewarding ministers, so he just smiled and said nothing.

Zhu Houn tapped his head lightly and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it when Xu Qing comes back. Oh, I wonder if Xu Qing can go back to Beijing to attend Yongfu's wedding banquet."

Eunuch Bi smiled and said, "This memorial was sent out on May 15th. Master Jinghai pacified Wang Zhi and his son in early May. It was absolutely useless. It is now July. I guess he has returned to China now. After landing, he can still catch up with the fast horse."

"I hope!" Zhu Houqing muttered in a complicated mood. He hoped that Xu Jin could return in time, but also worried that he would come back to attend the wedding of Yongfu sister, because he had already vaguely seen what his sister thought about Xu Jin.

At this moment, a young eunuch rolled in and crawled in, reporting pale face: "Emperor, it's not good, Concubine Shu... is red!"

"Seeing Hong...what Hong?" Jiajing asked in surprise.

Bi Yun's expression changed drastically. He is an experienced old man. Concubine Shu was only four months pregnant. It was not until the time to give birth. Now she is in trouble. She is very likely to have an abortion.

After hearing his father-in-law's explanation, Jiajing ran out of the Yangxin Palace like a bolt from the blue, and ran to Jingren Palace with his legs running wildly. A group of eunuchs and palace servants followed behind and rolled and crawled.

When Emperor Jiajing rushed to Jingren Palace anxiously, he was blocked by the palace servants: "The emperor cannot go in now, and the imperial doctor is treating Concubine Shu."

"Get out!" Jiajing roared with red eyes, pushed away the palace servant blocking the way and rushed in, but the palace servant was loyal to him and hugged Jiajing's thighs and shouted: "Your Majesty must not be. Empress Shu is very dangerous at this moment. When you go in and disturb the imperial physician's treatment, you may not be able to live a life of one corpse..."

Jiajing trembled all over and stopped quickly. At this time, a shout came from behind him: "The Empress Dowager is here!"

Empress Dowager Jiang and the two princesses rushed to the front of the palace. The former asked anxiously: "Son of the Emperor, how about Concubine Shu?"

Zhu Houguan shook his head pale and said, "I don't know, the imperial physician is treating him."

"Oh, how could this happen so well? It must be that you slaves did not serve Empress Shu!" Empress Dowager Jiang shouted loudly with a cold face. She finally had a grandson. Now that this kind of accident occurs, how can you not be angry?

The palace maids and eunuchs who were responsible for serving Concubine Shu were all silent and knelt down there and kowtowed desperately begging for mercy.

"If the dragon seed in Shufei's belly has a long and two shorts, you don't have to live anymore." Empress Dowager Jiang said fiercely.

The palace maids and eunuchs looked dissatisfied, and a few timid even fainted on the spot. Princess Yongfu couldn't bear it and said softly: "My mother, I don't know what the situation is inside now. Let's not cause trouble, it will be bad if it's disturbing."

Empress Dowager Jiang quickly shut up when she heard this. The palace maids and eunuchs stopped begging for mercy and did not dare to speak out, but they all gave Princess Yongfu a grateful look.

After about half an incense stick, the Imperial Hospital was about to spring, and two female doctors walked out with pale faces and fell to the ground.

Jiajing couldn't help but burst into tears and shouted, "How is Concubine Shu?"

Ji Fengchun said tremblingly: "Emperor... Emperor, we have tried our best. Concubine Shu's life is not hindered, but... the fetus in her belly cannot be preserved!"

Zhu Houcan buzzed his ears, and his whole body was stunned, his lips trembled, and he said no matter how he said, "I can't save it anymore... Ignore it, how could this be possible!"

"My good grandson!" Empress Dowager Jiang screamed and fainted.

"Mother Queen!"

"The Queen Mother!"

Everyone exclaimed, and stepped forward to help Shi save him, but even Queen Wu did not notice her arrival.

Fortunately, Empress Dowager Jiang was pinched and woke up, and then she burst into tears. Zhu Houxiang pointed at Ji Fengchun and shouted with two female doctors: "Come on, take all these quack doctors and throw them into prison."

The guard immediately stepped forward and tied up Ji Fengchun and two female doctors to take him away. This is the case when he is an imperial physician. Although he is well treated, if something goes wrong, he will have to be in trouble even if it is not his own fault. Therefore, being a doctor for the emperor and his family is undoubtedly a high-risk profession in ancient times!

Zhu Houguan entered the room like a walking dead man. There was a palace maid cleaning the water in the silver basin dyed red with blood. It was shocking.

Zhu Houyan walked to the bed and saw Shufei lying on the bed with a dying breath, looking haggard, her eyes straight as if she had lost her soul. It was not until the former called her a few times before she came to her senses.

"Emperor...our child is gone!" Concubine Shu burst into tears and cried with tears in her heart.

Zhu Hou was so worried that he forced himself to smile and comforted him: "It's good that you're fine, we'll have children in the future!"

When Shufei heard this, she felt warm, but she cried even harder. Queen Wu stood behind Zhu Houguan for a few steps. She was both jealous and hated when she saw this, but there was a gloating smile on her lips!

It was so terrible that Queen Wu's smile was not obvious, but was just captured by Zhu Houcan who looked up. Zhu Houcan was in great grief and suddenly became furious and pointed at Queen Wu and scolded: "You woman with a heart that is as good as a snake and a scorpion, you can still laugh at this time!"

Queen Wu's expression changed drastically and she quickly decided: "I don't have one!"

"Come, drive her out. I don't want to see her!" Zhu Houcong shouted in anger.

"The queen should go out first!" Yongfu whispered.
