The emperor looked at him deeply and said: "People are our first priority, so I will naturally be prepared."
Wei Zhi then fell silent.
When the emperor saw that he had made a concession, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and looked at Xiao Yuanzheng and Zhou Man. He suppressed his excitement and said, "Come on, will you two Qings come up and show me?"
Man Bao raised his head and met Xiao Yuan's eyes. Both of them were helpless and had no choice but to step forward.
Man Bao respected his elders very much, and Xiao Yuan was his superior, so naturally he felt his pulse first, so he stood firmly behind him without stepping forward first.
Xiao Yuanzheng had no choice but to step forward and ask for the emperor's pulse.
Everyone stared at it with sharp eyes, and some of them were particularly opposed to the emperor's personal expedition. For example, Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites and others moved their steps slightly to the side of the emperor, just face to face with Xiao Yuan who was sitting on a stool asking for his pulse.
He winked at him vigorously.
When Xiao Yuanzheng saw it, he simply closed his eyes slightly and raised his head to take the emperor's pulse.
In fact, there was no need to ask for help at all. He had just checked the emperor's pulse the day before yesterday. It was a crisp autumn day and the emperor was in good health.
After a while, Xiao Yuanzheng retracted his hand, stood up and stood aside.
Man Bao looked at Xiao Yuanzheng, hoping that he would say something first, but Xiao Yuanzheng only raised his eyelids and glanced at her, then motioned for her to come forward quickly.
Man Bao had no choice but to retract his gaze, sit on the small stool, put the emperor's hand on the case and gently put it on it...
After a while, Man Bao also stood up and stood aside.
Everyone looked at the two men, persecuting them with their eyes in order to achieve their own goals.
Man Bao looked at Xiao Yuanzheng.
Only then did Xiao Yuanzheng truthfully report the emperor's pulse condition.
Zhao Guogong was a little impatient and asked directly: "Just tell me whether His Majesty's body can be used for military expedition. You talk so much about round and moist pulses, but we don't understand it."
Xiao Yuanzheng: "...it's not that the pulse is round, it's that the pulse is solid, that's all. You don't understand even if you tell me, but I think Lord Wei and Li Shangshu are both knowledgeable, so they should understand, right?"
Nowadays, who among the scholars does not read a copy of "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" when studying? Even if you don't study deeply, you still can't figure out the pulse, but you still have to do a lot to identify the pulse. I tell you that the pulse is strong and strong, and the pulse is not stagnant.
, you still don’t understand?
Anyway, the emperor understood and immediately shouted: "I just want to say that I am in good health?"
Xiao Yuan was about to speak but hesitated, and couldn't help but look at Zhou Man.
Man Bao was thinking with his head down and didn't see his eyes.
Wei Zhi noticed it, so when the emperor was about to order his personal expedition, he directly asked: "Xiao Yuanzheng, Imperial Physician Zhou, is it true that there is no problem at all for your Majesty's personal expedition? If something happens to His Majesty's imperial commander during his trip,
You can't bear the wait."
This is what Xiao Yuan was worried about, so he refused to explain the pulse condition too easily. I said that the emperor's pulse condition is very good now, and he is strong enough to kill two cows. What if something happens to him later and I ask him to accuse him?
?
Although this is the truth.
So Xiao Yuanzheng took a deep breath and said: "Your Majesty's pulse is really good at this time, but who can be sure about his travel?"
"After all, the soil and water are different when you are away from home. What's more, the battlefield is changing rapidly. No one knows what will happen." Xiao Yuanzheng paused and said, "Besides, His Majesty still has old wounds on his body."
The emperor didn't expect that he would defect before the battle, so he couldn't help but widen his eyes. When he turned around and saw Zhou Man, he said, "Zhou Qing, what do you think?"
Man Bao saluted and said: "I think Xiao Yuanzheng is right. Your Majesty, drinking water may choke someone to death, let alone going out and conducting a military expedition in person."
The emperor was stunned for a moment and then became very happy. He patted the armrest and asked everyone with a smile, "Yes, am I going to stop eating because of choking?"
He finally knew what the old man Xiao Yuanzheng was worried about, and said directly: "Since all the gentlemen are here today, please tell me over there, it is my obsession to go on a long expedition, and it has nothing to do with the judgment of the Taiyuan Hospital.
relationship."
Xiao Yuanzheng quietly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhou Man with admiration.
Wei Zhi sighed and asked: "Your Majesty is on an expedition. Who will entrust the government affairs of the court to?"
"The prince will supervise the country," the emperor had already considered it, and said, "I went to Yongzhou for summer vacation before, and the prince supervised the country for two months. Didn't he do a good job?"
The prince who has been standing aside as a backdrop:...
He looked up at his father a little suspiciously, suspecting that he had a premeditated plan.
Other ministers in the room also had such suspicions, but after thinking about it, the emperor only found out about Goguryeo's attack on Yingzhou after he went to the palace. He had not known about it before, so it must be just a coincidence.
So everyone took their hearts back again.
The emperor also ordered Wei Zhi, Li Shangshu, Liu Shangshu, and the old Tang Dynasty masters: "When the time comes, several ministers will assist the prince in managing the internal affairs, and I can go to war with peace of mind while leading the army."
What else can people say?
He even invited Xiao Yuanzheng and Zhou Man in advance. Although they believed that it was right to prevent the emperor's personal expedition, they had to come up with strong reasons.
It is obviously not enough to simply say "a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall".
Because the emperor said "to boost morale" and blocked him back.
However, Jin did suffer setbacks against Goguryeo many times. It was not that they did not win, but they did not conquer the opponent after winning. In their eyes, that was the same as not winning.
For example, against the East and West Turks, Gaochang and other countries, they fought against them, won, occupied the territory, established states and counties, and governed them with Han customs. Only then did they win.
No matter how bad it is, just like Tubo, if you win, the land that should be taken back will be taken back, and the land that cannot be taken back, you will pay tribute honestly in the next few years. When the emperor celebrates his birthday, he will let you come to Beijing to celebrate his birthday or have a birthday.
During the festival, Tubo would not only send envoys over, but occasionally the King of Tibet would come over in person.
This is called harmony, it is called coming and going, it is called intimacy, it is called a country of foreign nations.
In the end, it was your turn Goguryeo. When I beat you, you surrendered quickly. The words written in the poem were more beautiful than the songs. But when it was time to pay tribute, I didn’t pay tribute. I asked you to come to Beijing to talk about it. You tried to shirk it in every possible way, but it didn’t matter.
What, you don’t have a sense of presence, the emperor is very busy and doesn’t bother to pay attention to you.
As a result, last year you cut off other vassal states' access to the DPRK, and this year you secretly sent troops to seize my territory. This is too much.
Under such circumstances, if the Jin Dynasty defeated Goguryeo, even the ministers with civil servant backgrounds could not agree, let alone the military generals. They had long been holding their breath.
And privately, there are some bad rumors among the people.
Since half of the reasons for the collapse of the previous dynasty were due to the Eastern Conquest of Goguryeo, people always say that Goguryeo is the nemesis of the Central Plains. Anyone who confronts it will be destroyed.
At this time, there was still a big difference between the emperor's personal expedition and sending troops to the east.
It is precisely because of this that the ministers were able to be convinced so quickly.
But they have passed this level, and there is still the level of the queen in the harem.
So when the emperor left the royal study and went to the harem, he specially called Zhou Man and took the prince with him.
