Eight hundred and thirtieth chapter monopoly power
Chapter 830 of the main volume of the Ruyi Young Man: Monopolizing Power "Thank you, Your Highness."
Tang Zhao picked up the wooden box, bowed slightly to King Huai, and left in a hurry.
King Huai clapped his hands and walked into the teahouse in front of him.
Not long after, in a room somewhere in the teahouse, he handed a box to the man wearing a cloak and said, "You should give him another box."
The man opened the box and looked at it. The wooden box he had given to Tang Zhao just now was back in his hands. He looked at King Huai and asked in confusion: "Your Highness, why is this?"
Of these two boxes, the one he just gave to Tang Zhao had the same effectiveness as before, while the other box had been diluted a lot by them, so its effectiveness was greatly reduced.
The amount of medicine that could kill someone in three months would take at least half a year after the effect is reduced.
King Huai stood in front of the window, looking at the flow of people below, and said: "The time has not come..."
…
From New Year's Eve to Lantern Festival, people don't have to work, officials don't have to go to the Yamen, and everything is off.
After the Lantern Festival, everything returned to normal.
However, half a month has passed since the Lantern Festival, the first month of the early Dingyuan year has passed, and the government offices in Beijing have been operating normally for more than ten days, but His Majesty has not held a morning court.
The news coming out from the palace is that His Majesty is in poor health and has temporarily taken a break from the imperial court. All matters related to the imperial court have been handed over to the Shangshu Province.
In the Shangshu Province, the Prime Minister has temporarily put aside government affairs, and the Right Prime Minister Tang Ning is not in the capital. The entire Shangshu Province is decided by King Huai alone.
A palace, a dormitory somewhere.
Imperial Physician Cheng Ling Yihong withdrew his fingers from Emperor Chen's wrist, twirled his beard, and said: "Your Majesty's body is fine. It must be due to overwork. I will prescribe a nourishing and calming prescription for your Majesty."
…”
Concubine Fang Shu frowned and asked: "A month ago, the Imperial Hospital said that His Majesty was ill due to overwork. These days, His Majesty has not touched government affairs and has been recuperating. How can his health become worse and worse?"
Ling Yihong pursed his lips and said: "With all due respect, Your Majesty's illness may be more heart-wrenching..."
At this point, he stopped talking.
Everyone knows what is wrong with His Majesty. He went to the Western Mountain to offer sacrifices to heaven with great expectations, but he did not expect that King Kang would rebel during the ceremony. This matter has become a knot in His Majesty's heart and will not be easily overcome.
Concubine Fang Shu wanted to say something more, but Concubine Tang Hui glanced at her and said, "Can it be that Concubine Shu cannot even believe the words of the imperial physician, or is Concubine Shu's medical skills better than that of the imperial physician?"
Concubine Fang Shu was speechless for a moment, but she couldn't say anything else. She could only look at Ling Yihong and said, "Please leave it to Doctor Ling."
Ling Yihong bowed and said: "This is my duty."
Concubine Tang Hui glanced vaguely at the maid serving in the corner, and said to everyone: "Okay, since the imperial doctor has already seen it, let your majesty take a good rest. Let's all go down and don't disturb your majesty."
After hearing this, everyone left the palace one after another.
Concubine Tang Hui walked down the stone steps and was about to return to the palace when she suddenly felt something in her heart. She stopped, turned her head, and met King Huai's eyes.
"Concubine Hui." Prince Huai cupped his fists slightly and bowed to her.
King Huai's gaze made Concubine Tang Hui tremble. King Huai at this moment reminded her of the child more than ten years ago. At that time, he also looked at her with such eyes, which were full of indifference and did not contain a trace of humanity.
feelings.
Tang Huifei's eyes subconsciously dodge and asked: "Aren't you going back yet?"
King Huai smiled and said, "When I saw Concubine Hui, I remembered that I received a lot of care from my concubine when I was young. Don't blame me for being distracted for a moment."
Concubine Tang Hui did not remember how she cared for King Huai more than ten years ago. In fact, King Huai was still too young at that time, and she had no impression of him at all.
She glanced at King Huai and said, "Your mother-in-law died early, and I should take care of you. You don't need to keep it in mind."
"My mother taught me since I was a child that a drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring." King Huai shook his head and said, "Concubine Hui's great kindness and kindness will never be forgotten by Zhao Rui. If there is an opportunity in the future, I must repay you."
Empress."
King Huai now holds great power and controls the Ministry of Education alone. His words are very important, but for some reason, Concubine Tang Hui stood in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel a deep fear in his heart. He looked at
King Huai glanced at him and said: "You know how to repay your kindness. I am feeling a little unwell, so I will go back to the palace first..."
"Mom, walk slowly."
King Huai bowed down and respectfully sent Concubine Tang Hui off. When he raised his head, the respect in his eyes had already turned into indifference.
At this time, inside the hospital.
Ling Yihong was surrounded by several imperial doctors. One of them looked at him and asked: "How is your Majesty's health?"
Ling Yihong shook his head and said: "No problem can be found. It seems to be really caused by fatigue."
"This shouldn't be..."
"In the past month, Your Majesty has not read a few envelopes in total. How could it be getting worse?"
"I've taken so many tonics, they must have some effect..."
…
The imperial doctors frowned and continued to discuss. His Majesty has been feeling tired recently. After discussion, the imperial hospital prescribed some medicine based on his symptoms. It stands to reason that after taking it for so many days, even if his health has not improved, it will not improve.
It continues to get worse, but the fact is that His Majesty's body is getting weaker day by day, and the hospital is at a loss to do anything about it...
Even if they are imperial doctors, they dare not say that they are really proficient in the matter of diseases. The human body is extremely mysterious, and there are many diseases that they cannot explain.
Since King Kang's rebellion, Your Majesty's health has been getting worse day by day. It is difficult to say that this is not a mental illness.
And if it is a heart disease, then it needs heart medicine to cure it. What his majesty's heart medicine is, only he himself knows.
One person seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Ling Yihong and asked: "Isn't Mr. Sun in the capital? Why not invite him into the palace to take a look at your Majesty..."
Ling Yihong shook his head and said: "A month ago, my master went out to travel. I don't know where he went."
The man sighed and said: "Then we can only take one step at a time..."
…
The ministers are all provinces.
Since His Majesty has been ill these days, all matters in the six ministries are reported directly to the Minister.
Lu Ding walked into the Shangshu Yamen. After paying homage to King Huai, he handed him a letter and said, "This is the list of promotions and relegations of the Sixteenth Guards after this competition. Please take a look at it."
The guards are different from the border troops. They do not participate in wars with foreign nations. The promotion of the guards generals mostly depends on their performance in large and small competitions.
King Huai looked at it, circled a name, and said: "As the imperial guard, Zuo Yu Lin Wei has repeatedly failed in competitions in the past few years. General Ling Yun of Zuo Yu Lin Wei cannot escape the blame. He can no longer do so."
If he is qualified for this position, the Ximen Guards have just been formed and the position of general is still vacant, so let him go to the Ximen Guards."
Lu Ding was stunned and said: "This..., do you want to ask His Majesty?"
Zuo Yu Linwei is His Majesty's confidant. Although they have not performed well in the competitions in recent years, it is also because of the existence of Zuo Xiaowei. If Zuo Xiaowei is excluded, their annual competition results can be regarded as one of the best. Moreover, ten
Although the Six Guards Competition involved the relegation of generals, it was only limited to those under General Zhonglang and never involved generals...
"My father is in ill health. It's better not to disturb him with such a trivial matter." King Huai glanced at him and said, "Besides, the Ling family already has General Ling Wu of the Jin Yu Guard. Ling Yun will sit in Zuo Yulin again.
Does Lu Shangshu think the position of General Wei is suitable?"
The Jin Yuwei is responsible for guarding the capital, and the Yulinwei is responsible for guarding the palace. The Ling family has a general, a Jinyuwei general, and a Yulinwei general. If the Ling family wants to rebel, the city gate and the palace gate will be opened wide.
It is indeed inappropriate, but His Majesty has not said anything in these years, which shows that he has great trust in them, so no one cares about it.
Now that King Huai directly brought it up, Lu Ding couldn't speak for them, otherwise it would appear that he had ulterior motives.
After all, what King Huai said was reasonable, and his worries were also justified.
Lu Ding thought for a moment and could only nod his head and said: "Your Highness is right..."
He looked at King Huai and asked: "In this case, the position of General Zuo Yuwei is vacant, who should fill it?"
King Huai shook his head and said, "This is a matter for your Ministry of War."
After a while, Lu Ding walked out of Shangshu Capital Province and walked towards the Yamen of the Ministry of War.
King Huai's transfer of General Zuo Yuwei Ling Yun, although a bit sudden, was a precautionary measure. However, as a prince, his move was still a bit overstepping and could easily arouse suspicion from others.
After all, General You Yuwei is the father of Princess Hui. If General Zuo Yuwei is also his, wouldn't this palace fall into his hands?
King Huai seemed to be aware of this, so he did not appoint the candidate for General Zuo Yuwei, but handed over the choice to the Ministry of War. In this way, some people's suspicions were naturally cut off...
King Huai was so young, yet he was so impeccable in doing things, no less than Tang Ning. Thinking that his cheap son-in-law was only the same age as them, Lu Ding couldn't help but sigh in his heart...
