Chapter 1766 Bad news one after another, the queen is critically ill
Without staying in Qionglin Garden, Emperor Liu returned to the palace. As soon as he received the news, Prime Minister Zhao Kuangyi hurried over.
"I've met Prime Minister Zhao!" Yantuo was in front of the palace, lecturing the stupid chamberlains. When he saw Zhao Kuangyi, he immediately smiled and bowed his hands.
Zhao Kuangyi simply returned the greeting and glanced into the Chongzheng Hall. He looked a little serious like a thief and asked in a low voice: "May I ask Senior Officer Yan, how is your Majesty's mood?"
Yantuo was a little surprised by Zhao Kuangyi's performance and asked in a low voice: "What happened?"
How can one speak to an eunuch about major national affairs? However, after hesitating for a while, Zhao Kuangyi felt that he still could not offend the eunuch. His face was calm and there was no trace of disdain at all. Zhao Kuangyi sighed: "I just received a report from Hunan. Shi Shijun died of illness while in office!"
After hearing this, Yantuo's expression became solemn. As a person close to Emperor Liu, Yantuo knew a lot about the personnel within the imperial court, and basically knew all the officials in the border areas. The Shi Shijun Zhao Kuangyi mentioned was known to him as Shi Xizai. Already.
He also subconsciously looked inside the palace, and Yan Tuo reminded him: "The officials are not in a good mood, so you should be careful!"
Zhao Kuangyi's heart trembled, he became more cautious, and nodded his thanks: "Please let me know!"
"My lord, please wait a moment!"
Yantuo turned around and went inside. Soon, he appeared in the corridor again, and the emperor called.
Somewhat unexpectedly, after learning the news that Shi Xizai died in office, Emperor Liu was just in a daze, then asked questions to confirm, and then paid attention to the cause of death. After learning that it was a sudden emergency and died suddenly, he showed a touch of sadness. color.
"Shi Ningji has also left me!" Emperor Liu murmured: "He is not yet sixty, and things are unpredictable! I want to make great use of him, but I am jealous."
Shi Xizai was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Qianyou's reign. He went through two major eras of the empire's development. It was not until the Kaibao period that he truly rose to prominence, rising all the way to become a feudal official and a pillar of the country.
Because he served as Chongzheng Bachelor Chengzhi beside Emperor Liu, in the eyes of outsiders, he also belonged to the "Bachelor School", and as his age and prestige increased, he became a leader among them.
As for his character and talent, there is nothing to say. He is a true minister, and Emperor Liu's regard for him is well known in the court. He has said in private more than once that with Shi Xizai's ability and qualifications, he should have been the prime minister long ago. , use it sooner or later.
It's just that now, the funeral news has come, and the person has passed away without being awarded any honors, which is somewhat sad. Zhao Kuangyi, after hearing Emperor Liu's emotion, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. In his opinion, the current political hall is already crowded enough , if Shi Xizai is transferred back to Beijing, no matter who replaces him, it will not be a good thing for him. A Song Qi and a king will already make him uncomfortable. If there is another Shi Xizai who has higher qualifications than him, Sir, when will Zhao Kuangyi reach the top?
Noting that Emperor Liu was murmuring sadly, he was not as sad and angry as he had imagined. He suppressed his thoughts, raised his hands and comforted him and said: "Your Majesty, Mr. Shi is diligent in royal affairs and devoted himself to his life. He did not abandon his official duties even when he was ill. Hunan's political affairs are harmonious and all industries are prosperous. His death is a huge loss to the country, and it is truly regrettable. However, he has passed away, so please express your condolences to your majesty!"
"You can see clearly!" After hearing this, Emperor Liu responded lightly, pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "His funeral should be done with all the mourning and honor, and everything should be paid for by the treasury in accordance with court etiquette. In addition, I will pass on the edict.
A hundred years later, Shi Xizai deserves to be in the temple!"
Zhao Kuangyi was slightly surprised, and at the same time he couldn't help but lament that such treatment was rare. Shi Xizai's status in Emperor Liu's heart was so high. This was a bit surprising. After all, he had never even reached the political level.
.
"yes!"
"Where is the prince?" Emperor Liu thought of Liu Yang and couldn't help but ask. Generally speaking, the prince should come to report this kind of thing, at least he should be there.
Zhao Kuangyi replied: "The people who were victims of the Yanqingfang fire are rebuilding their homes. The project was completed today. After hearing the news, His Highness went to inspect and comfort him!"
"Yes! It should be!" After hearing this, Emperor Liu nodded.
Good things come in pairs, and bad news comes one after another. If the news of Shi Xizai's death only made Emperor Liu feel a little regretful, his mood quickly recovered after the ceremonial sadness.
But the news from Kunming Palace made him unable to sit still any longer. Under the imperial steps, the female maid of Kunming Palace was kneeling, crying and unable to speak clearly.
"Why are you crying? Tell me clearly, what happened to the queen?" Emperor Liu's heart trembled and he reprimanded coldly.
With this attack, the female maid became even more panicked, trembling with fear, tears streaming down her face, as if she had lost her mouth, and didn't know how to speak.
As a result, Emperor Liu became even more angry. He slapped the emperor's case and cursed: "If you don't explain clearly, I will kill you!"
The shock of death is always effective. Seeing Emperor Liu's angry expression, the female maid finally came back to her senses and stumbled back: "The empress misses His Highness the King of Wei, and has recently started to embroider the robes herself to send to His Highness the King of Wei. Originally,
"It's fine. Unexpectedly, just now, I suddenly coughed up blood and fainted."
As she said that, the female maid began to cry again. When Emperor Liu heard this, his face turned a little pale unconsciously, his whole body was trembling, and he was completely unsteady. He asked urgently: "How is the queen now?"
"It has been sent to the imperial physician."
"I ask you how the Queen is doing now?" Emperor Liu repeated, his expression already a bit scary.
The attendant hesitated and hesitated, obviously unaware. Seeing this, Emperor Liu had no intention of pestering him. He stood up suddenly and walked out of the palace. In his eagerness, he staggered a few steps.
"Get up and drive to Kunming Hall!" Yantuo followed, singing and shouting in accordance with the etiquette.
Emperor Liu stopped and glanced sideways at Yantuo. The look in his eyes made Yantuo tremble, and he immediately shut up. With a serious face, Emperor Liu quickly walked towards Kunming Hall, his old cold legs seemed to be...
Much more convenient.
Yantuo followed with his head lowered, and was a little frightened. Shi Xizai was nothing. If something happened to the queen, Yantuo had a whim that a catastrophe was about to happen.
It is true that Emperor Liu has not visited Kunming Palace much in recent years, but this does not mean that his relationship with the Queen has become cold. On weekdays, anyone who dares to disobey the talisman will not be treated favorably by Emperor Liu.
It was already dark, and Emperor Liu was walking outside Kunming Hall. Emperor Liu was naturally very familiar with this hall. However, at this moment, he was a little deterred and a little scared. The palace lanterns were already lit up in the corridor, and the dim light
The light shone on his face, revealing half gloominess and general fear.
After a brief mental construction, Emperor Liu showed a forced smile to make himself look more relaxed. In the bedroom, the atmosphere was depressing, the palace maids and chambermaids lowered their heads, and Empress Fu lay on the couch with her eyes closed tightly, her face expressionless.
Dr. Sun was sweating profusely and was using the needle.
Emperor Liu slowly approached, and a shadow gradually enveloped Imperial Physician Sun, making his hands tremble a few times. After a while, Imperial Physician Sun put away the needle and stood there blankly. He could almost feel Emperor Liu's breath behind him, but he
I was too nervous to look back.
"How is the Queen's condition?" Emperor Liu tried to make his voice calmer.
Hearing the sound, Imperial Physician Sun could no longer hold his nerve, turned around and reported: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, the empress is suffering from a serious lung disease."
"I asked you how the Queen is doing?"
Dr. Sun became even more panicked and replied: "Your Majesty is infected with external evil. The evil energy has entered the body, and the healthy energy is insufficient to support it! I have already administered the acupuncture, but I still need to use medicine to regulate it!"
"Can acupuncture and medicine be used to cure it?" When he heard that it was a lung disease, Emperor Liu's mood sank again, but he continued to ask.
"It still depends on the conditioning effect."
Upon hearing the words of Imperial Physician Sun, who was not confident enough, Emperor Liu stopped pretending, frowned and said angrily: "Avoiding the important and taking the easy, do you think I am easy to bully?"
"Your Majesty, I don't dare!" Facing Emperor Liu's almost cannibalistic gaze, Imperial Physician Sun was frightened and kowtowed.
"Why are you the only imperial doctor here? Where are the others? There are not so many famous doctors in the imperial hospital who are known as 'gynecological masters'. Where are they? Go and call them all. If you can't cure the queen, I will kill you!"
Emperor Liu showed his fangs. Even though Imperial Physician Sun had been serving him for many years, he had no mercy.
Glancing around, he noticed the slumped-down palace servants of Kunming Palace. Emperor Liu roared again: "How do you serve the Queen? If anything happens to the Queen, you will count them all and never let them go!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the dormitory fell to their knees. Except for Emperor Liu, no one was left standing. Everyone looked pale and trembling. The old doctor Sun had a sad face, and there was a hint of despair in his eyes, just like him
Such a national player will naturally have judgments about the queen's condition. The queen is in danger, and so are they.
"Erlang." When the atmosphere was so oppressive that it was almost breathless, Empress Fu finally woke up leisurely and called out weakly.
