"One for you, one for Zhao Ying, one for Duke Ying, one for Duke Cheng, and one for Duke Rong..." Zhu Di said with straight eyes.
"Ah..." King Zhao was a little confused. Duke Rong Guo was Yao Guangxiao. Why did the emperor mention this dead man? He could only stutter and asked: "Gong Rong Guo went there a few years ago..."
"Nonsense, he's not dead, he was still talking to me yesterday..." Zhu Di had already started to talk nonsense, his expression became more and more unnatural, his pupils were a little sluggish, and in the end he could only close his eyes tightly and grit his teeth.
"Your Majesty!" Zheng He cried out. He knelt forward and said loudly: "You can't worry about it anymore. The dragon body is important!"
"Father, this matter concerns the crown prince, and I need your clear edict!" King Zhao refused, pressing loudly.
"Your Majesty! Stop talking! How to check, you don't know yet? Are you trying to force the emperor to death?" Zheng He glared at King Zhao, and when he heard Zhu Di's increasingly rapid breathing behind him, he hurriedly said loudly
"Hurry up and tell the imperial doctor!"
King Zhao also saw that Zhu Di's complexion turned from red to purple, and then from purple to green, and his whole body became unconscious. Then he quickly stopped talking and called the imperial doctor over.
However, no one responded for a while, and then the two of them remembered that all the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital had been captured by Zhao Ying and taken to Dongchang for interrogation. There was no one left to serve the emperor...
By the time King Zhao sent someone to notify Zhao Ying, and brought out two relatively intact imperial doctors from the imperial edict, and then hurried to the palace, the emperor had already fallen into a coma...
The imperial doctor quickly diagnosed that the emperor had suffered a second stroke and hurriedly gave him an injection. They worked until midnight and Zhu Di was out of danger, but he was still unconscious.
"When will the emperor wake up?" King Zhao called the imperial doctor named Zhou outside and asked in a deep voice.
Doctor Zhou said with a bitter face: "No one can say for sure. It may take three to five days to wake up, or it may not wake up in ten and a half months, or maybe..." He suppressed the second half of the words, but no one could tell.
You can understand that Zhu Di may never wake up.
"Will the emperor get better after waking up?" King Zhao asked quietly.
"It's impossible. The emperor is so angry that the blood pool is in the air. The wind, yang, phlegm, fire, and qi and blood are blocked in the brain." They are flowing through the meridians, and the condition has seriously deteriorated." Doctor Zhou sighed and said: "The guilty ministers tried their best, but they could only
It can only extend the emperor's life, but it cannot prevent the condition from getting worse."
"You mean, even if the emperor wakes up, he will be unconscious, deaf and aphasic?" King Zhao has been serving Zhu Di these days and is already half a doctor in the field of stroke.
"Yes." Doctor Zhou nodded, and in order to shirk responsibility, he emphasized: "Even if Bian Que is reincarnated, he will not be able to wake up the emperor."
"Very good..." King Zhao subconsciously said something, which made Dr. Zhou's hair stand on end. Knowing that he had made a mistake, King Zhao stared at him and said: "You executed Wang Guifei, which was a capital crime. It was me who rescued you.
"
"Your Majesty's great kindness and kindness will be deeply felt by the guilty minister. Even in the next life, I will bear the grass and tie a ring to repay Your Majesty's kindness." In fact, Dr. Zhou felt aggrieved. After all, at that time, he thought that the concubine Wang Guifei was not suffering from typhoid fever, but food poisoning.
Although he later succumbed to the Jin Yuan Judgment, the Jin Yuan Judgment also made it clear that he was solely responsible and had nothing to do with anyone else!
Of course, Imperial Physician Zhou also knew that these words could not be uttered. In any case, as long as Dongchang believed that he was responsible for the death of Wang Guifei, he could copy his nine clans. There is no doubt about this.
"I don't need you to repay me in the next life," Zhu Gaosui put his cold fingers on Imperial Physician Zhou's neck and said, "As long as you repay me now."
"My lord, what is your order? The guilty minister will not hesitate to die." Dr. Zhou responded quickly.
"From now on, stay by the emperor's side for me," King Zhao said in a deep voice, "You have to promise that if my father is about to wake up, I will be the first to know." After a pause, he said, "I have to let my father know.
When the emperor opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was me."
"Isn't the prince always by the emperor's side?" Doctor Zhou asked in a low voice.
King Zhao glanced at him coldly and said nothing. Doctor Zhou shrank his neck and whispered quickly: "The guilty minister knows it. If the emperor shows signs of waking up, he must inform the prince as soon as possible." After a pause, he continued.
He asked worriedly: "What if the prince can't come back in time?"
"Then let the emperor wake up for a while." King Zhao said coldly.
"Uh..." Dr. Zhou shuddered. Unexpectedly, King Zhao Ruwu was so bold that he was a little dumbfounded.
"Can't you do it?" King Zhao looked at Dr. Zhou displeased: "Then let someone else do it."
"It can be done!" Doctor Zhou didn't want to go back to prison, so he nodded quickly and said: "The guilty minister has a way to make people unconscious, and he can be unconscious for as long as he wants."
"I won't keep you waiting long." King Zhao then patted Imperial Physician Zhou on the shoulder and walked out of the palace without looking back.
Eunuch Yang sent King Zhao out, followed him and asked in a low voice: "My lord, are you no longer in charge of the palace?"
"No." King Zhao sighed, looked at the scene outside and said, "There are many things outside the palace, and I still need to take action personally." As he spoke, the corner of his mouth curled up and he said, "If my father hadn't had another stroke, I would have really done it.
I dare not leave this palace even half a step."
"My lord, please go with peace of mind. I will keep an eye on this place for you and not let anyone get close to the emperor!" Eunuch Yang hurriedly said to please.
"This is exactly what I want to tell you." King Zhao said softly: "Imperial doctor Zhou is a waste. You should keep an eye on me and don't make any mistakes." After a pause, he said: "Especially those in the cabinet.
Guys, you must not let them get close to my father."
"I have remembered this, my lord, don't worry!" Eunuch Yang agreed.
"Be careful and don't be careless!" King Zhao warned again before he got on the carriage and left the palace.
According to regulations, only old ministers and favored ministers with high achievements and hard work will be rewarded with the qualification to sit in a sedan in the Forbidden Palace. Although King Zhao is a prince, he is young and strong, and Zhu Di did not allow him to sit in a sedan in the Forbidden Palace.
But now that the emperor was unconscious, the eunuch flattered King Zhao and prepared a carriage for him. King Zhao also accepted it calmly, without any consciousness that this was transgression...
Not long after King Zhao left Xiyuan, huge waves broke out in the capital. Dongchang Fanzi searched the palace frantically. Nearly 3,000 eunuchs, maids, and guards were thrown into Dongchang Prison, tortured, and interrogated for the murder of the king.
Is there any connection between the imperial concubine's traitors? Especially the powerful eunuchs and guards were treated with special emphasis. Those who obediently loyal to King Zhao were quickly acquitted, while those who refused to be loyal to King Zhao would die.
!
Every day, dozens or hundreds of people were pushed to the Caishikou to be beheaded, cut in half, or even executed in languid places! The blood dyed the Caishikou into a sea of red, making the people in the capital who loved to watch the excitement couldn't bear to watch, and they all stayed away.
.
However, this was just the beginning. Dongchang Fanzi soon began to arrest officials, civil and military ministers, and even dignitaries from the DPRK and the Central Government by extorting confessions. They were not spared. Martial law was imposed in Beijing, and the officials were ordered to stay in Beijing.
They were examined in turn. At this time, official positions, titles, and even gold medals for immunity from death were all nonsense. Dongchang ignored those officials at all. As long as they were implicated, they could be arrested and interrogated!
Under the torture of Dongchang, there were thousands of people who had been arrested before. Who could not get a confession? Who could not be implicated?
For a time, there was a trembling wind in the court, and everyone was in danger... However, with the precedent in the palace, the civil and military ministers knew how to turn disaster into good fortune and turn adversity into good fortune.
Everyone knew that the emperor was unconscious and no one could stop this prison. Only by surrendering to King Zhao could he be spared.
Outside the gate of Prince Zhao's Mansion, there was heavy traffic day and night, and countless civil and military ministers lined up waiting to be received by Prince Zhao... The eunuch who was the gatekeeper of Prince Zhao's Mansion suddenly became the most lucrative job in the world. The door package increased from the initial ten taels of silver.
One hundred taels, five hundred taels, or even one thousand taels! The officials spent a lot of money just to see King Zhao as soon as possible so that they no longer have to worry about it all day long.
After all, if you meet King Zhao one day late, you will have an extra day to be arrested by Dongchang. If you are arrested by Dongchang, you may lose your entire family and your family!
In the flower hall of Prince Zhao's Mansion, the frightened Minister of Justice Xu was sent away. King Zhao rubbed his temples tiredly and said to Wei Wuque, who was standing beside him: "We'll stop here today."
"At this rate, even one month won't be enough." Wei Wuque said expressionlessly, "I'll see you at least ten more today."
"Time waits for no one..." King Zhao couldn't help but sigh. Zhu Di couldn't last much longer, so he had to hurry up. "I am a Bodhisattva, and I can't stand so many kowtow bugs. Only today do I understand that it is the birth of Buddha in all families.
Drudgery.”
"Of the twenty-six noble generals who need to be conquered, only five have come so far, not even a fraction." Wei Wuque said lightly: "None of the main officials from the six ministries and nine ministers have come, and the minister is the only one who has come.
the second."
"Why are you so mean and can't you make me feel good for a while?" King Zhao smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, okay, keep up the good work."
"Next." Wei Wuque said solemnly.
Outside the flower hall, the little eunuch's call came out one after another.
After a while, a middle-aged military general wearing the uniform of a second-grade military attache came in with sweat on his face. He knelt down to King Zhao and said respectfully: "I, Jin Wu, the commander of the left guard, Xiong Nian, wish King Zhao a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years."
Thousands of years old."
King Zhao's originally tired face suddenly brightened up and he looked at Wei Wuque beside him, which meant that another big fish had finally taken the bait.
"General Xiong, please get up quickly." King Zhao raised his hand and said politely, but there was no expression on his face.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xiong Nian finally got up, and King Zhao asked someone to sit down and watch tea.
The young eunuch of Prince Zhao's Mansion brought out the tea tray that had just been removed. In fact, it was still the bowl of tea given to Minister Xu before. This bowl of tea had been served to more than a dozen guests, but no one dared to drink it.
The little eunuch was happy to be lazy, taking down the same bowl of tea, serving it up, serving it up and taking it down again, which was very convenient.
Unexpectedly, General Xiong was anxious waiting outside. When he saw the tea, he didn't care about it. He picked it up and drank it. The tea was cold in his mouth and he was stunned for a moment.
