"Long live my Lord, you have finally woken up. Please drink some medicine." Seeing the withered face, Zhu Qiyu slowly opened his eyes, Zhang Yong and other eunuchs could not help but let out a sigh of relief, and quickly and carefully waited on the man.
Zhu Qiyu sat up, took the concoction that had been warmed on the side and brought it forward.
Zhu Qiyu, who was so emaciated that he was about to catch up with the dry firewood and sticks, could not help but frowned when he smelled the unpleasant smell of Chinese medicine. However, after everyone's persuasion, he drank up the bowl of medicinal juice and drank again.
With a small bowl of honey, Zhu Qiyu's pale and ugly face finally gained a little more color. "How long have I been asleep?"
"Long live my lord, you have been sleeping for almost a day and a night. The concubine has been watching over you here last night. It was not until this morning that the old slave persuaded you to go back." Zhang Yong looked at Zhu Qiyu's haggard face.
With a face on his face, he couldn't help but replied anxiously. "By the way, the imperial concubine, and the prince also stayed here for most of the night. Because the prince couldn't support it, the imperial concubine took the prince back to the palace first, saying that if the long live master wakes up,
, but you must tell her."
"I know." Zhu Qiyu waved his hand impatiently, leaning on the couch, and said feebly: "Please go and inform my mother and Concubine Hang. Well, Wang Qin, don't forget,
Tell them there so that Li Bin can feel at ease. After a few days, I will get better and I will go see her."
"Old slave, I obey. Long live my Lord, do you have any other orders?"
Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and then continued: "By the way, I once promised Li Bin, let's do this. Her brother Li An is now a member of the Jinyiwei Hundred Household. Well, I will give the Lingfu Temple and the garden to Li An."
An incense courtyard."
"Long live my lord, don't worry. I'll take care of it now, and it will be done properly." Wang Qin quickly bowed his body respectfully and saluted, and then cautiously exited the hall.
In the palace, the group of eunuchs were still waiting beside Zhu Qiyu, and no one was willing to leave at this time. After all, this was the time when he and others were performing.
"Political affairs require hard work for you and the cabinet, but don't worry, I will always be on your side." Looking at the worried expressions on the faces of this group of loyal eunuchs, Zhu Qiyu was very satisfied and said softly.
.
"Long live Lord, you can rest assured. I will definitely run the errand for Long live Lord." Zhang Yong and others replied respectfully. Then Zhu Qiyu just leaned on the couch and chatted with everyone, and then felt
He was exhausted, drowsy and about to fall asleep, but he heard the rapid footsteps and the heart-breaking cry, as well as a pair of hands that kept pushing him, and he couldn't help but reluctantly opened his eyes.
When I came, I saw Concubine Hang sitting on the couch with tears streaming down her face.
"It's you, where is the emperor?" Seeing the concubine he loved most in the past, Zhu Qiyu showed a faint smile. He glanced around, but did not see his son Zhu Jianji. He couldn't help but frown slightly and asked.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
"Long live the Lord, the emperor cried here for half the night last night and didn't fall asleep for the rest of the night. Later, the imperial doctor prescribed some soothing medicine and then fell asleep. When I heard that the long live Lord was awake, I couldn't bear it.
I woke up the emperor, so I rushed over to pay my respects to Lord Long Live." Concubine Hang wiped the tears from her cheeks and explained with a forced smile.
"Such a young person has never endured such hardship. He should be given more rest to avoid seeing me like this." Zhu Qiyu raised his hand and touched his thin face, and couldn't help but smile with a bitter look on his face.
.
"Long live my lord, you must take good care of your health. If something happens to you, how will I, my concubine, and the emperor live?" Concubine Hang's pink cheeks had not dried tears, and she looked at her with a sad expression.
Zhu Qiyu was lying on the couch in front of him.
Zhu Qiyu nodded. "I understand, don't worry. Aren't those bastards the reason why I got sick this time? I just need to take care of it for a while. As for you, you should keep an eye on the emperor for me."
"
Wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes with the silk handkerchief, Concubine Hang showed a flattering smile on her face, held Zhu Qiyu's skinny hand, hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Long live my lord, don't worry.
I will definitely take good care of the emperor, but long live my lord, now that the matter has been exposed, and now there is a mess inside and outside, what should I do? Long live my lord, Jian Ji is yours after all.
biological son..."
Hearing this, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but frown, and slowly withdrew his hand and placed it in front of his abdomen, his voice filled with unspeakable fatigue: "Of course I know, but now, it's known to the whole world,
If no one among the officials dares to stand up and speak for me, what can I do?"
"But you are the emperor of our Ming Dynasty after all. As long as you persist, no matter how much those ministers object, what can they do?" Concubine Hang said with some urgency. Seeing this scene, those few who had been staying behind could do nothing.
The eunuchs in the palace couldn't help but have strange looks on their faces, but no one was willing to stand up.
"So what? Do you think you feel comfortable and happy to let me bear a lifetime of infamy?!" Zhu Qiyu finally couldn't help it, his eyes widened, and he yelled.
"Long live the Lord, I dare not, I just think..." Seeing Zhu Qiyu's two deep-set eyeballs filled with fierce light, she was so frightened that Concubine Hang quickly fell to her knees with a look on her face.
He explained with a pitiful look.
"You!...Get out! I don't want to see you, get out quickly!" Zhu Qiyu fell back on the couch tiredly, waved his hands feebly, and turned his head to the couch in disgust. Just these small actions,
He almost used up all the energy he had worked so hard to save.
"Long live my lord..." Concubine Hang couldn't help but shed tears again with a look of grievance, but she whispered several times but didn't get any response.
"Empress, Long Live Master's body needs to rest now. You can't get angry. You'd better go back first. Let's discuss this matter after Long Live Master gets better..." At this time, Xing'an, who couldn't stand it anymore, stepped forward and said,
He bent down and persuaded Concubine Hang.
After all the talk, he finally persuaded Concubine Hang to leave the palace. Looking at the concubine who seemed cunning but actually as stupid as a pig, Xing'an couldn't help but shook his head slightly, turned his face and was about to enter the palace.
But he saw a eunuch hurriedly walking towards this side, and he couldn't help but was slightly startled. "Eunuch Cao, why are you here?"
"I have met Eunuch Xing. Our family has just completed a tour of the palace. We are worried about the health of Long live the Lord, so we came here to have a look." Cao Jixiang, who is tall and strong and not at all effeminate, saw that it was Xing'an and hurriedly
He saluted Na Xing'an respectfully, glanced into the hall, and deliberately raised his voice a little.
Xing'an nodded to Cao Jixiang almost imperceptibly, beckoned for Cao Jixiang to follow him into the palace, and said softly: "Don't worry, Long live the Lord just woke up, and his complexion is better than yesterday, the imperial doctor said
, Lord Long Live must rest for at least half a month, Eunuch Cao, now that you have received the favor of the Emperor, to assist Princess Zhang in taking charge of the internal martial arts, you must not slack off, or let Lord Long Live disappoint you."
When Cao Jixiang entered the palace, he first bowed respectfully to Zhu Qiyu, who had fallen into a deep sleep, and then greeted all the confidants and eunuchs around Zhu Qiyu with a smile, as if he were a younger generation.
The eunuchs were greatly satisfied.
"Eunuch Cao, if Long Live Master is in poor health, we have to take care of Long Live Master and cannot get away. This big palace confinement is left to you. Don't let down the good intentions of our family. Do you understand?" That Zhang
After accepting the gift from Cao Jixiang unceremoniously, Yong Yong nodded slightly to Cao Jixiang with a reserved look on his face.
"That is, our family is what it is today, and it is not all because of your support. Such a great kindness, our family will not dare to forget it for eighteen lifetimes. We will definitely work hard and earn face for our father-in-law." Cao Jixiang was originally a burly man.
, but having to do such groveling behavior in front of that skinny and short Zhang Yong was really a bit off-putting, but everyone in the palace didn't take it seriously, and looked at it as a matter of course.
Seeing that Zhang Yong narrowed his eyes and a conceited smile appeared on his face, Cao Jixiang continued to laugh with him, but the resentment and hatred in his heart became stronger and stronger.
If he hadn't stuffed tens of thousands of taels of silver, and even gritted his teeth and given many of his past treasures to these vampires, it would have been impossible for him to return to the Royal Horse Prison, let alone obtain these few dollars.
The favor of the confidant eunuch named Zhu Qiyu.
However, for the sake of my own future and the promise made to me by the Empress Dowager, it is worth doing this.
As for Zhang Yong and others, although they didn't have a good impression of Cao Jixiang in the past, they didn't have any bad feelings either. It's just that whoever allowed him to occupy the prime position of the Royal Horse Supervisor, and who belonged to Wang Zhen's family, naturally had to take him away.
Come down so that you can change into the old people around Zhu Qiyu to eat meat.
However, after eating for a long time, I realized that the work of the Royal Horse Supervisor was really quite a lot, but he, Zhang Yong, was not only Zhu Qiyu’s confidant eunuch, but also the most considerate person around Zhu Qiyu. Naturally, he had to wait on him at all times.
, there were people who were promoted in the past, but how can I put it, they were all a group of flatterers, and the Royal Horse Supervisor did not have to work for more than a year, and they made a mess.
Although Zhang Yong has been with Zhu Qiyu for more than 20 years, he is not someone who only thinks about doing nothing but serving the emperor. But the problem is that he does not have the ability. Seeing that the imperial horse supervisor is getting worse and worse, to the point where
If something goes wrong at that time, wouldn’t he have to be blamed?
When Cao Jixiang came out, Zhang Yong and others finally remembered how they had forgotten about this guy.
Cao Jixiang was not only the former eunuch of the Royal Horse Guard, but more importantly, he was a man who knew military affairs. Now, when the emperor is extremely worried about foreign ministers, Cao Jixiang, a eunuch who knows military affairs
His surrender was naturally in line with Zhang Yong’s wishes.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Therefore, because he recommended Cao Xixiang as the eunuch of the Royal Horse Supervisor, Zhang Yong also received Zhu Qiyu's praise for his knowledge of people. Now, in just a few friends, Cao Jixiang has really made the Royal Horse Supervisor eunuch.
Not only that, but Cao Jixiang knew very well how he got his position. In short, Cao Jixiang would always report every detail of the Royal Horse Supervisor to Zhang Yong, and for this
Cao Xixiang was very generous and only drank a little of the soup he got from the fat chai, and gave all the meat to Zhang Yong.
Although it didn't last long, Cao Jixiang's cuteness to please Zhang Yong gradually changed his attitude. Although he still secretly sent his confidants to control many affairs of the Royal Horse Supervisor, in terms of military affairs, more of them were controlled by
Then Cao Jixiang will make the decision.
"How's the situation?" After leaving the palace where Zhu Qiyu was recuperating, the two of them walked slowly along a secluded corridor. Xing'an walked slowly with his hands behind his back, his expression quite solemn.
At this moment, Cao Jixiang no longer looked like he was groveling in front of Zhang Yong and others. He glanced around and said in an extremely low voice: "Eunuch Xing, please don't worry.
Everyone is reliable, but we can't be sure when...so our family doesn't dare to make adjustments first."
"Remember, the less people know about the matter, the better it will be for you." Xing'an glanced at Cao Jixiang and nodded slightly, but his tone still sounded serious.
"Our family knows that our wealth and life are at stake here, how can we be careless?" Cao Jixiang nodded and couldn't help but patted his forehead with some frustration. His wife and children were all held in the hands of the Sun family.
, that is his biological son, even if he risked his life just for him.
"Don't worry, the Empress Dowager and His Majesty the Emperor are trustworthy people. As long as you do what you should do, they will naturally not let you down." Xing'an couldn't help but sigh lightly, looking at the red walls of the palace in the distance.
Jin Wa couldn't help but said leisurely. "The reason why our family does this is not for our own glory and wealth, but for the Ming Dynasty of our Han family."
"What I did today really disappointed the people of the world. For the sake of my own selfish interests, I actually ignored the country and the country. Our family has been in the palace since the Yongle Dynasty and served Emperor Taizong and Emperor Taizong.
Emperor Renzong, Emperor Xuanzong, and even His Majesty the Emperor in the past had their faults, but they never behaved like this."
Although Cao Jixiang put on a respectful expression, his brows were raised disapprovingly. Xing'an saw Cao Jixiang's expression, but did not explain anything, just smiled. "This matter is over, we
At home, it’s time to guard the imperial mausoleum and take care of yourself..."
Looking at Xing'an's somewhat forlorn back, Cao Jixiang opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't scream. He straightened his robes, took a deep breath, and walked up another corridor.
