Chapter nine hundred and fifty fifth strange pulse
How can the emperor be willing to cultivate himself? Although the imperial doctor said that he should not work too hard, the emperor did not deal with the affairs of the state, but he still had to understand the trends of the state affairs, otherwise wouldn't he be ignored by the prince?
However, Gu Chengyu was not naive enough to think that the emperor could understand the government affairs on his own. He prepared two notes, which was completely necessary.
"Well! These detailed rules are well done. They list all the difficulties encountered in establishing a chamber of commerce. With these detailed rules, those officials can copy them without making much mistakes."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction again, and Gu Chengyu took the opportunity to observe the emperor's face.
Compared with the radiant look on the emperor's face when he first took the longevity pill, the emperor's complexion at this moment was much worse than before.
His face is a little dull, and the wrinkles on his face are deeper than before. His eyes, which were originally deep and lively, have now become cloudy.
Gu Chengyu couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart, aging so quickly was definitely not normal.
"Your Majesty, Envoy Zhang Yuan is here to take a pulse!" De'an reported softly to the Emperor.
Gu Chengyu rolled his eyes. He could not feel the emperor's pulse and wondered what the emperor's physical condition was.
The envoy Zhang Yuan often came to ask for pulse, so he should know the emperor's condition very well. If you want to know the emperor's condition, you have to ask the envoy Zhang Yuan.
"Let him come in!" The emperor sighed, and for just a moment, his face was already full of sadness.
"I've been asking for my pulse all day long, and they all told me to rest and recuperate. Isn't this all nonsense?"
The emperor sighed. Recently, he felt that his health seemed to be getting worse day by day, and he always felt a little weak.
"Your Majesty, Chief Zhang has the most outstanding medical skills in our Imperial Hospital. Please relax and ask Chief Zhang to diagnose your pulse again."
Gu Chengyu wanted to say whether there might be something wrong with Taoist Tianji's elixir, but when he thought that he had no evidence, it was really inappropriate to say so.
But he heard that when the prince raised questions, the emperor not only didn't believe it, but also got angry and drove the prince out of the palace.
In fact, Gu Chengyu was very puzzled. Why did the emperor have so much faith in Taoist Tianji?
Even if the elixir that Taoist Priest Tianji refined for the emperor was somewhat effective, since the last life-extending elixir, the emperor has been radiant at first and has been lingering on his bed recently. Could the emperor not be suspicious?
No! The emperor may have become suspicious, otherwise he would not have sent someone to follow Taoist Tianji.
But letting Taoist Tianji go would be a big disaster. Should I say that the emperor has too much confidence in himself? Or does he have confidence in Taoist Tianji?
"The humble minister Zhang Huai respectfully wishes His Majesty's blessing!" Envoy Zhang, carrying the medicine box on his back, knelt down on the ground as soon as he entered the palace.
Gu Chengyu saw that the emperor did not let him retreat, so he did not mention his resignation. Instead, he stood aside and waited for the result of Zhang Yuan's pulse call.
Incense slowly rose from the incense burner in the hall, and ambergris spread in every corner of the hall. Gu Chengyu quietly covered his mouth and stifled a big yawn.
Oh my God! Zhang Yuanzhang, is he asleep?
Zhang Yuanshi put his fingers on the brocade handkerchief covering the emperor's wrist, closed his eyes and meditated, and remained motionless.
How long has it been? About a quarter of an hour. There was silence in the hall, and De'an kept his hunched posture motionless.
The emperor leaned on the pillow, closed his eyes tightly, and did not even loosen the wrinkled word Sichuan on his forehead.
If it weren't for the emperor's chest heaving now, Gu Chengyu would have thought that time had been stopped. And he was the only one awake in this palace.
While Gu Chengyu was wandering in the sky, Zhang Yuanshi finally opened his eyes. He took his hand back and his brows instantly knotted.
"That's not right!" Zhang Yuanshi touched his beard with a look of confusion and shock on his face.
Gu Chengyu rolled his eyes in shock at Zhang Yuanzhi's meaningless words, "Zhang Yuanzhang, can we make it clearer?"
However, Gu Chengyu didn't have to wait long for this matter before De'an couldn't help but ask.
"Master Zhang, how about the emperor's dragon body? You should explain it clearly!"
De'an was frightened by what Zhang Yuanzhi said. He looked anxious, which made Gu Chengyu think of something.
What, the emperor is not in a hurry, he is in a hurry to kill the eunuch!
"Judging from your pulse, Your Majesty, your physical condition seems to be much better now than before. But Wei Chen feels that yesterday's pulse condition was much worse than today. How could Your Majesty recover so quickly? Moreover, according to the
I looked at your face, Your Majesty, and it doesn't seem like this."
Zhang Yuan was confused himself. He had been practicing medicine for decades, and the most peculiar pulse condition was the emperor's.
Gu Chengyu was also very surprised when he heard what Ambassador Zhang said. From the look on his face, it was obvious that the emperor had not recovered from his health.
But the envoy Zhang Yuan said that judging from his pulse, the emperor had improved a lot. What was going on?
Could it be that the body is already recovering, but the complexion has not yet caught up? Is this possible?
No wonder Zhang Yuanzhang took so long to diagnose the pulse just now. It turned out that he was stumped.
"So, my body is recovering quickly? But why do I always feel a little weak in recent days?"
The emperor couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He could clearly feel that his body was declining.
However, neither Zhang Yuanzhang nor other imperial doctors in the imperial hospital could make any diagnosis.
Either he wanted to rest more, or he was recovering. But the feeling of his body couldn't be deceived. He just felt weak and couldn't lift his spirits.
Is this also a symptom that the body is recovering? This is simply impossible!
"Your Majesty, have you taken any pills in the past few days?"
Zhang Yuanzhang suspected that the emperor had taken some elixirs privately. Who knew if there would be any problems with elixirs that had not been tested by their hospital?
The emperor remembered the Qi and Blood Pill that Taoist Tianji left behind before he left. He had taken it according to Taoist Tianji's method. Could it be a problem with the Qi and Blood Pill?
"Your Majesty! The origin of Taoist Priest Tianji is unknown. You took his elixir without giving it to the Taiyuan Hospital for examination. There may be something wrong with it!"
As soon as Zhang Yuan saw the emperor's expression, he knew that the emperor must have taken some pills in the past few days.
"Give it to our hospital? Can we find anything? I gave you the chance to extend the life-extending pill, right? Haven't we found anything yet? Furthermore, if it is said that Taoist Priest Tianji has an ulterior motive,
Then he has been in this palace for so many years, why doesn't he take action?"
Although the emperor was also suspicious of Taoist Tianji's elixirs, he remembered that the elixirs Taoist Tianji had given him before were all effective.
In these years, Taoist Priest Tianji never left the palace, but in the end he came back and brought back more useful elixirs.
"I have also taken Taoist Tianji's elixir before, and the effect is very obvious. Don't always target him, his elixir still has a certain effect. I don't think he wants to argue with you, as a doctor from the Imperial Hospital
Hospital envoy, you should put more thought into improving your medical skills."
