"After everything is done... I will allow you to be a high-ranking official with a generous salary and a successful career. I will even give you a fiefdom! So that you can enjoy a country within a country in the great beams..." Li Yuanzhao finished this sentence with a calm expression.
Then he picked up the tea bowl and took a sip...
He, as early as ten years ago, had planted a chess piece among the palace doctors...
At that time, he was only a third-rank political official... Emperor Xuansi... had not inherited the throne, nor had he married his sister... At that time, he just wanted to rely on this chess piece to become the first
He learned about the late emperor's physical condition so that he could inform the former prime minister who served him.
Now, this chess piece that had been hidden for many years actually played the most crucial role. This was something he never thought of...
"Prime Minister... Sir... Little man... this... this is not just a crime of decapitation... but also brings harm to the whole family!!" Doctor Zhang was almost tongue-tied at this moment, if he didn't have enough breath to hold on.
Look, just looking at his face, it wouldn't be unusual to faint at any time...
"Well...then if you really don't dare, just leave..."
"Thank you, Prime Minister!!"
"But after you get out of this door, look at how many of your family members can survive..." Li Yuanzhao finished the second half of the sentence slowly, and then slowly sipped tea...
"Of course... you can also report the truth. Let's see if your whole family can be safe after my death..."
"My lord!!!" Dr. Wang knelt down on the ground with a "gudong" sound, bursting into tears, and said tremblingly: "My lord, my mother has worked hard to raise me. My mother... But she has worked hard for most of her life, and now she has just begun.
Enjoy a few days of happiness..."
"What are you talking about... what does it have to do with the truth...?" Li Yuanzhao gently put the tea bowl on the table and stared at Dr. Zhang who was kneeling on the ground without blinking... making his hair stand on end.
…
"The truth is that we only need to raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while. Since the soldiers raised will not be used by me, what's the point of keeping them?" Li Yuanzhao's cold eyes revealed his murderous intent and dissatisfaction. Everything said.
Everything was very reasonable, and everything was explained very thoroughly. This was the first time that he showed his inner thoughts and expressions to outsiders without any concealment...
Even if Doctor Zhang thinks with his buttocks at this time, he can still think of the consequences of getting out of this door or reporting him...
If you don't report him, you should come down. What happens next...?
As long as the emperor dies and the prime minister retains the power and refuses to investigate, then I... and my family... still have a glimmer of hope...
Loyalty and filial piety...
Dilemma...
In the end, Imperial Physician Zhang chose filial piety... or rather... chose life... As for his true thoughts, no one knows whether his own life is more serious or his mother's life is more serious...
The only thing I know is...
He... nodded...

The night in the capital is still bustling...
Although there are no pedestrians on the street under the curfew, the lanterns at the door of each house and the music played in the flower house all show the prosperous scene here to the world. All of this is naturally attributed to the emperor of the current dynasty... knowing people and doing their jobs well.
, govern the country well...
But among the people living happily in the city, how many of them knew that Emperor Xuan Si was already hanging on by a thread and lying on his bed...
the next day
Emperor Xuansi... woke up...
But the first thing he did when he woke up was burst into tears...
Regardless of the imperial doctor's dissuasion and the empress dowager's obstruction, he ran barefoot in the palace, cried, smashed, pushed, and kicked all the objects in the palace, and he smashed them all clean.
When all the imperial doctors were protecting the Queen Mother and hiding in a corner, shivering, Emperor Xuansi suddenly spurted another mouthful of blood on the ground... fell to the ground again, unconscious...
The crux was quickly diagnosed...
Too sad...depressed and condensed...
But applying medicine...
The imperial doctors had no idea what to do...
There is no other way but to prescribe some prescriptions to soothe the nerves and replenish the blood. After all, heart diseases can only be cured by medicine for the heart. The emperor himself cannot let go of his worries and always holds on to them. Even if Bian Que is reborn, there is nothing he can do... www.八一

In just five days, Emperor Xuan Si's black hair began to turn gray at a speed visible to the naked eye...
My body...is also getting thinner day by day...
Finally, the top group of old imperial doctors were completely at their wits' end... so they selected a few capable juniors from the younger generation of imperial doctors to help together with the treatment...
And Zeng Ke also stayed in His Majesty's palace hall all day long, alerting everything around him...
After leaving the court for several days, foreign officials were not allowed to enter...
Outside the palace, a group of officials seemed to have caught a whiff of the scent. They did not dare to say anything, let alone enter the palace, for fear of staying away...
Only He Yougui, a little old man, would report to the palace on time every day. When he asked why, he was told nothing and was turned away. He hurriedly circled the palace wall, wandering back and forth...
It wasn't until the emperor issued an edict that the whole country mourned Princess Kaiyuan in her green dress... He Yougui sat down on the ground and fell ill...
Xuansi three years
September 7th
On this day, the birdsong outside the palace was particularly noisy. Emperor Xuansi used his thin arms to support him and sat up from the couch, looking at the palace door, feeling dazed...
"Little Zhezi..."
"Here! Your Majesty, the villain is here!!"
"Go away... chase away the birds outside the courtyard... I... sound troubled..."
"Yes, Your Majesty! I'll go right now!!" After receiving the order, Xiao Zhezi quickly turned around and gave instructions to the maids and maids beside him. Several chamberlains ran to the House of Internal Affairs to get bamboo poles and pointed them at the trees in the courtyard.
Wa, a meal to drive away...
Accompanied by the whistling of bamboo poles and the chirping of birds outside the palace, they gradually dispersed... Emperor Xuansi said a second sentence...
"Let Zeng Ke... enter the palace... I want to know what happened to the newly built ship... I... want to drive it and conquer it myself!! Destroy the Japanese country!! No one will be left alive!! Cough cough cough cough..." Xuan
Si Di was overly excited for a moment, his dry vocal cords tugged, and he coughed so hard that he couldn't control himself...
"Quick! Where's the medicine!? The medicine hasn't dried yet!??" Xiao Zhezi urged desperately, quickly took the medicine soup handed to him, took a sip in a hurry, confirmed that the temperature was good enough to be taken, and then smeared it on the edge of the bowl.
The red seal was quickly handed to the emperor...
Emperor Xuansi coughed, took the medicinal soup, and began to drink it slowly with Xiao Zhezi gently beating his back... But he had just taken two sips when he felt that Xiao Zhezi's back beating behind him suddenly stopped, and then
Just one hand quickly overturned the medicine bowl in his hand! Emperor Xuansi again
When he looked back, Xiao Zhezi's eyes were wide open and he was vomiting blood. One hand was still trembling and pointing at the medicine residue on the ground. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't make any sound. Another mouthful of thick blood! He fell to the ground and died.
... Until death, those hands and eyes were still facing the remaining medicine on the ground!!
"Quickly send the message to the imperial doctor——!!!" Emperor Xuansi stood up and shouted these words, then he covered his chest and fell back on the bed, breathing fiercely and panting fiercely, using up his last bit of strength.
Said a few words...
"Passing the throne...the fourth...prince..."
Then a mouthful of black blood spurted onto the ground, and the door to the dormitory suddenly opened! Zeng Ke's eyes widened, feeling the last breath of his old friend, he quickly stepped forward, lifted him up, and treated him with Qi!!!
