Chapter 201 Wanli Three Great Expeditions

The 24th year of Wanli is destined not to be a year that can be calmed down.

This year, Emperor Wanli's health was in some condition. Under the careful care of the imperial physicians, not only did they not recover, but they were getting worse and worse.

The atmosphere in the entire palace and even in the capital became particularly solemn with the physical condition of Emperor Wanli.

In the cabinet, the first assistant Grand Secretary Shen Shixing and the second assistant Wang Xijue looked at each other. Wang Xijue was sitting opposite Shen Shixing with a frown at this moment.

"Yuan Fu, the crown prince's wedding next month. But what should I do if the emperor is in such a situation?"

Wang Xijue felt panic for the first time.

In the entire cabinet, he was the least willing to see Emperor Wanli in bad health, because he proposed the ritual of the two kings' conferred titles. Later, not only did the two kings' conferred titles fail, but the eldest son of the emperor

He also unexpectedly became the crown prince.

This made Wang Xijue feel very flustered. He always feels that he has been on the wrong side and is too early to place a bet.

Now, Emperor Wanli has a person who can't take matters at least. At that time, the crown prince will be instigated by villains, and then his second assistant will be over.

However, Shen Shixing didn't care much about Wang Xijue's mood, and he had long been unhappy with this second supporter who always cared about his position.

However, due to the cultivation of the Prime Minister, Shen Shixing never gave Wang Xijue a small shoe, so the court situation has been relatively stable over the years and there has been no party struggles.

In this regard, Shen Shixing has a very high opinion of himself. He believes that in the past few years of stable dynasty, he plays a crucial role, much better than his exes who love to stumble, otherwise

How could he be the chief assistant who has been thirteen years?

The thirteen-year term as the chief minister was appointed as the chief minister since the founding of the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, except for the treacherous minister Yan Song, who everyone called for beating, he was also the oldest.

However, in the original historical time and space, Shen Shixing was not so lucky. The fierceness of the national foundation in the original historical time and space was far beyond imagination. It was a series of years from the 19th year of Wanli to the 22nd year of Wanli.

Four prime ministers have failed.

However, now due to Zhu Changluo's emergence and careful operation and design, the dispute over the foundation of the country came to an end early, so this also made Shen Shixing work as the chief assistant for several years out of thin air.

Shen Shixing slowly picked up a cup of tea and blew it slowly, then pecked it gently, and then said: "The emperor's body is unhealthy, all because our ministers cannot understand the heart of heaven and share the worries of the king and father. The crown prince is great

Marriage is indeed a joyful thing. With this good thing, maybe the emperor will be able to come to good health in a flash and be healthy."

When Wang Xijue heard Shen Shixing's words, he did not dare to say anything against Shen Shixing's words, so he had to say: "What Yuan Fu said is extremely true. The lower official said nothing."

Shen Shixing looked at Wang Xijue who was surrendering and was in a good mood. However, when he thought about Emperor Wanli's body, his heart was in a state of ups and downs.

What if Emperor Wanli really has a good life and how should he, the "old minister", deal with himself in front of the crown prince?

This incident also made Shen Shixing headache, but Shen Shixing could not show it yet.

Otherwise, the court would have been full of rumors and was in chaos in an instant.

Just as Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue were having their own thoughts, Shi Xing, the Minister of War, rushed over again.

After Shi Xing arrived at the cabinet, he opened his mouth and said, "It's a big deal!"

When he shouted out, Shen Shixing and Wang Xijue's faces turned black in an instant.

Shen Shixing said a little angrily: "What's so anxious?"

Shi Xing immediately submitted the military newspaper in his hand, and then quickly said to Shen Shixing: "There is a big deal in Yuanfu, and Yang Yinglong, the chieftain of Bozhou, has rebelled again!"

After Shen Shixing heard Shi Xing's words, his face suddenly turned black.

What medicine did Yang Yinglong take wrong? He refused to do a good job and insisted on rebelling. Is there any trick in his mind?

However, Shen Shixing still cannot ignore this matter. Because this fact is too great.

Bozhou is located in Sichuan, with a radius of thousands of miles. It has become the hereditary place of the Yang family since Yang Duan of the Tang Dynasty. It has been passed down to Yang Yinglong's generation for 29 generations of chieftains for thousands of years, and the Central Plains dynasty has been changed several times during this period.

Only these toasts are still firm.

However, Yang Yinglong has a very good skeleton. He has no choice but to learn from other people's flags and rebellion. Isn't this obviously looking for trouble?

Moreover, Shi Xing just said that Yang Yinglong had rebelled again. Obviously, this guy has a criminal record.

Shen Shixing took Shi Xing's military newspaper, then looked at Shi Xing and asked, "Why did he rebel again? Is the court not treating him preferentially?"

Shi Xing didn't know how to answer when he faced Shen Shixing's question.

In the end, Shi Xing could only talk about the matter in the military newspaper.

Shi Xing said: "According to the return of the Sichuan Governor, Yang Yinglong angrily rose up and rebelled because of the death of his second son Yang Kedong. He now sent troops to attack Yu Qing and shouted, "Duba; burned Caotang and Xinglong, Duyun

Each guard; surrounded Huangping and killed the chief officials of Chong'an."

Shen Shixing said: "Yang Kedong's death was decided soon after. He died of illness in Beijing because he was not suitable for the local environment and was weak. At that time, the court also sent someone to explain. What does he mean now?"

Shi Xing couldn't accept Shen Shixing's words, so he really couldn't replace Yang Yinglong, who had a trick in his brain, to answer this question.

Seeing that Shi Xing did not reply, Shen Shixing did not dare to make arbitrary decisions.

Finally, Shen Shixing glanced at the second auxiliary Wang Xijue, and then said to Shi Xing: "Let's go, now come to the palace to face the saint, please decide."

After saying that, Shen Shixing took Wang Xijue and Shi Xing to the inner palace and headed towards the Qianqing Palace.

In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Wanli had long disappeared from his previous life. He leaned weakly on a reclining chair, standing beside Zhu Changluo, Chen Ju and others.

Zhu Changluo was slowly sporting a palm-leaf fan to cool down Emperor Wanli.

Chen Ju gently hammered Emperor Wanli's shoulder on the other side.

Emperor Wanli looked listlessly at the view outside the window, and the outside was filled with heat, which made people feel irritated.

"Can Chang Luo give me another ice cream?"

Emperor Wanli was really not afraid of death. At this point, he still wanted to eat ice cream to relieve the heat.

Zhu Changluo gently shook the fan and said, "Father, today's ice cream has been in. You are weak now. The imperial physician said that you should take a good rest. This ice cream is too cold. I am afraid that my son will treat my father's dragon body.

not good."

When Emperor Wanli heard Zhu Changluo's advice, he sighed, "I will get better after eating ice cream. This naivety is so hot that it makes people unable to lift up any energy."

However, Zhu Changluo, who was determined to find out, felt that he could not let Emperor Wanli eat it anymore. If something happened to Emperor Wanli while he was eating ice cream, wouldn’t it be troublesome?

So, it’s better to bear it at this point.

Seeing Emperor Wanli’s disappointed look, Zhu Changluo was also unbearable. He finally said: “Father, although I can’t eat ice cream, I recently got a recipe for herbal tea. I will make a cup of herbal tea for you later. Is it okay to do it all at once?”

When Emperor Wanli heard herbal tea, he slapped his mouth, "Will herbal tea taste no?"

Zhu Changluo smiled and said, "It's different. I've drunk this herbal tea, and it tastes sweet."

When Emperor Wanli heard that it was sweet, he immediately became energetic.

"Okay, okay, then I'll try it."

Just as Emperor Wanli was waiting to drink herbal tea, King Xijue and Shixing of Shen Shixing went to the Ganqing Palace to ask for a meeting.
