Chapter 350 Fight for the country's origin, fight for the prince!
The next day, early morning.
Zhu You returned to the room with extremely sore back and back pain, lay down on the comfortable big bed, and complained: "I'm so tired. I worked all night and finally moved the magma."
"Sleep, sleep, rest first and then talk."
"This morning's court meeting will definitely be interesting, but I'm too lazy to go see it. I'll go to bed first..."
Soon, Zhu Youji fell into sleep.
At the same time, the court meeting started as scheduled.
As soon as it dawned, the courtiers walked into the hall in order and took their places.
Emperor Tianqi had not yet arrived, and all the courtiers looked solemn and did not whisper.
In fact, they were greatly surprised when they received the notice yesterday.
Yesterday they went to see the emperor, but were blocked by Cao Zhengchun. There were rumors among the courtiers that the emperor was in a coma. The ministers believed it to be true and thought that they would not go to court early today.
But I didn't expect that I was notified last night.
"Is it possible that the Emperor is not unconscious?"
"Is the rumor yesterday false?"
This idea appeared in the minds of most courtiers.
Whether it is true or not, we will know when Emperor Tianqi appears.
Time passed, and it was already time for the morning dynasty, but Emperor Tianqi still did not appear.
This made the courtiers' hearts sink.
At this moment, a figure walked up to the courtiers, holding a fly whisk, white hair, wearing a python robe, with a ruddy face and an extraordinary bearing.
"Cao Zhengchun?"
After the courtiers saw Cao Zhengchun, their uneasiness became even more serious.
"Everyone, today, the emperor is not feeling well. If you have anything to report, our family will collect it and then forward it to the emperor for approval." Cao Zhengchun spoke calmly, looked at all the princes in the hall, and spoke slowly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was in confusion, whispering to each other, and talking about it.
"What? Feeling unwell again?"
"Are the rumors true? The emperor really..."
"Cao Zhengchun, what happened to the emperor?"
"Cao Zhengchun, we have to meet the emperor. If the emperor is unwell, why don't the people at the Imperial Hospital know about it? How did you know?"
…
Hearing the voices of the princes talking about each other, Cao Zhengchun was neither impatient nor angry, and looked at them quietly.
As time went by, the voices of discussion gradually disappeared.
A figure walked out.
"Eunuch Cao, the emperor is not feeling well. What disease is he suffering from? Can you tell me?"
Seeing this man coming out of the queue, all the ministers looked at him and said nothing.
This person is none other than Prince Gong Zhu Jiansheng.
"Prince Gong, the emperor is not feeling well. What disease is he suffering from? Our family doesn't know. If the prince wants to know, he might as well ask the imperial doctor at the Imperial Hospital?" Cao Zhengchun frowned slightly when he saw Prince Gong coming out of the queue. road.
Prince Gong was tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His eyes flashed with majesty and domineering. He turned around suddenly, looked at the last place in the hall, and said in a cold voice: "Prince of the Taiyuan Hospital, aren't you going to explain? "
The ministers followed Prince Gong's gaze and looked at the minister in the corner.
Under the gaze of all the ministers, the envoy from Taiyuan Hospital walked out tremblingly, saluted Prince Gong respectfully and said, "Prince Gong."
"Say!" Prince Gong didn't give him a good look and shouted.
"Yes..." The Imperial Hospital envoy trembled, and after much hesitation, he whispered: "Prince Hui Gong, Your Majesty, he... suddenly fell into a coma, the cause is unknown, and the imperial doctors were helpless..."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.
coma?
The reason is unknown?
At a loss what to do?
As soon as these three words came out, the expressions of the ministers suddenly changed, and they started discussing again.
"That's enough, shut up!"
Hearing the noise around him, Prince Gong became angry and shouted loudly, drowning out their voices.
All the ministers shut up and looked at Prince Gong.
In the main hall, it became quiet again.
Prince Gong looked at the envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital and asked, "When will the emperor wake up?"
"Prince Hui Gong, I don't know at the moment." The envoy from the Taiyuan Hospital said.
"Bastard!" Prince Gong cursed and said coldly: "Snow lotus from Tianshan Mountain is a rare treasure in the world. It has the effect of resolving all poisons. Have you ever given it to the emperor?"
"Prince Hui Gong, I have taken one tablet, but I still don't wake up. The emperor was not poisoned." The envoy from Taiyuan Hospital also looked embarrassed and explained.
"Trash, your hospital is all trash, what's the use of feeding you?" Prince Gong cursed.
At this time, a minister also came out, bowed and saluted, and said: "Prince Gong, the country cannot be without a king for a day. The emperor is in a coma now, but important national affairs cannot be left alone. Prince Gong, you are the emperor's uncle.
Identity respect, how do you think we should deal with it?"
The person who spoke was dressed in official uniform, with a thin figure and clear eyes. He was clearly Jia Ren, the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel.
"Jia Ren, what do you want to say?" Prince Gong frowned slightly, looking at the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, his tone was unkind, and his eyes were full of warning.
"Prince Gong, in the past, if the emperor went on a tour or an expedition, the prince should supervise the country, but now the prince and crown prince are pending, and the world is talking about it. At this moment, the emperor is in a coma, and there is no one to handle the government affairs. I think that the prince should be appointed as soon as possible.
To stabilize people's hearts and prevent Xiaoxiao from taking the opportunity to cause chaos."
Jia Ren, the left servant of the Ministry of Personnel, bowed and saluted, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and his tone was calm.
After hearing this, the ministers also began to discuss the matter.
Prince Gong frowned, looked at Jia Ren, the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and asked coldly: "Now that the emperor is unconscious, what do you want to do if you want to establish a prince?"
"Prince Gong, only the prince overseeing the country is the right thing to do. If it were anyone else, even the prince, he would be suspected of seizing power!" Jia Ren's tone was calm, but the deep meaning hidden in it made many people tremble.
There was a slight change in the eyes of the princes when they looked at Prince Gong.
Prince Gong felt the changes in the eyes of the surrounding ministers, and suddenly felt the pressure doubled, and said: "Jia Ren, who do you think can take on this important task at this moment? Enter the East Palace, become the prince, and temporarily supervise the country?"
Things developed so fast that before Hai Rui and Fu Tiecheng could judge the situation clearly, everything shifted to the position of the prince.
Obviously just now we were talking about the emperor's coma, but in an instant, it became about establishing a prince and fighting for the foundation of the country.
This caught the two of them off guard, but they vaguely felt that someone was adding fuel to the fire.
"I believe that the fourth prince Zhu Youji, with his loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, wisdom and courage, is the best candidate for the position of prince." Jia Ren did not hesitate and directly said Zhu Youji's name.
This is of course, because Jia Ren is originally from Concubine Wan Gui, and everything was instructed by Concubine Wan Gui.
Many ministers were not surprised that they supported Zhu Youji.
Even from the moment they heard that the country could not live without a king for a day, they knew what Jia Ren wanted to do.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Fu Tiecheng and Hai Rui looked at each other, then strode out and said in a deep voice: "I think that the second prince Zhu Youtang is more suitable to become the prince!!"
At this moment, it no longer matters whether the emperor is unconscious or not.
The drama of fighting for the country’s foundation is officially on!
