Chapter seven hundred and eighteenth minor illness
In this way, the grain and grass that the imperial court is allocating to Liaodong can be postponed, and even part of it can be allocated to northern Xinjiang, and the pressure on the household department will be greatly alleviated.
In fact, even if the supply really fails, Zhu Biao has no way to get some food. Along the coast, Jiangyin Hou Wu Liang's ocean-going fleet is almost complete. In addition to the seven or eight large merchants, there are also many small and medium-sized chambers of commerce that want to join.
, they have not forgotten the huge profits their predecessors made from overseas trade during the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
Those who dare to organize merchants and want to join Yuanyang in these days are basically from official and gentry families. They may not have other things, but they definitely have food.
It has been a common practice for aristocratic families to accumulate grain and store grain in troubled times for thousands of years. As long as they are lucky and strong, and are not robbed by rebels, and can still survive to this day, the amount must not be underestimated.
In addition, in the past few years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the imperial court has vigorously encouraged farming and has repeatedly reduced and reduced taxes. Although it is mainly for the lower class people, it is the gentry that really benefits the most...
The night was getting deeper, and Liu Jin just happened to be back, putting on a large cloak with a black background and red embroidered dragon patterns, and walked towards the East Palace surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs carrying angry wind lanterns.
"I want to go to Liangdi's place to have a rest. Please go and report to me."
There are two Liang Di in the palace, and they used to use their surnames when speaking, but I don't know since then, Liang Di has become the exclusive pronoun, even if this one is not pregnant with the emperor's heir.
"Um."
Liu Jin took a lantern from the eunuch beside him and left quickly. Zhu Biao looked at his back, silently thinking whether he loved Li Yan too much.
It must have been a little too much, but no one can be ruthless, and reason tells him that even if he is really doted on, he should let it go. This is the long-term solution.
People's desires are endless, and if they are pampered too much, Li Yan will inevitably have other thoughts, such as the position of crown princess. Even if she does not plan for herself now, when she has children in the future, she will be willing to give her son to another woman.
His son surrendered?
In the palace, there are vying for the legitimate sons, the legitimate wives and legitimate sons, and the fight is to be able to inherit the country and the country in a legitimate and legitimate manner.
"Where is that and why is the light still on?"
They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. The same is true for the people, and it is the same in the palace. Except for the guards on duty, the slaves who follow Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao have to wait until late at night because they have to wait for official duties until late at night. Most of the other concubines and slaves went to bed early.
After all, there is nothing else to do.
The maid on the side took a quick look and then reported back: "This is Zhao Chengwei's residence. As for why I don't know, I don't know."
Zhu Biao raised his eyebrows slightly. He heard news from one person continuously in one day and was deeply impressed. I remember that although he was punished, he didn't seem to have a time limit.
I glanced over there with some deep thoughts, as if I saw a figure of a female sitting at her desk copying commandments through the curtains. No matter what her thoughts were, at least her attitude was correct.
In the current situation, it seems good to have such a person. Since I don't want to be indifferent to Li Yan, it is necessary to find an opponent for her to attract her attention in order to prevent Li Yan from focusing on Chang Luohua.
"Let's go."
After the group of people walked away, a palace maid walked up to Chengwei and whispered: "Your Highness has passed by. It seems that he is heading towards Liangdi."
Zhao Ting'er put down the pen in her hand, covered her mouth with the back of her fingers, yawned, and then said with a smile: "Put them all away and write tomorrow."
"promise."
……………
When Zhu Biao opened his eyes in the morning, he felt a little dizzy and painful in his head. He seemed to have not slept that night, and various inexplicable scenes kept popping up in his mind, which made him very tired.
"Master, you're awake."
"Um."
Li Yan took a warm handkerchief and gently wiped the cold sweat on his forehead: "You didn't sleep well this night. I asked the imperial doctor to come over early in the morning and cooked herbal porridge."
"What time is it morning?"
"It's not yet time for the morning court. Besides, His Highness's health is the most important thing, so don't go today."
As he spoke, he vaguely heard a few cracks of whips. This was when officials were preparing to enter the court. Yesterday, he ordered that the morning meeting be brought forward an hour earlier, but he ended up being late.
It was impossible for Liu Jin to forget. It must have been Li Yan who stopped him. He sighed helplessly: "Nonsense, there are military and state affairs to discuss in the court today. How can you not go? Please wait and change clothes quickly."
"If you don't listen to me, my concubine, no matter how important the military or state affairs are, it's not as big as going to the country. No matter what, you have to see the imperial doctor and have breakfast."
"You, please ask Liu Jin to come in."
"promise."
After a while, I heard Liu Jin walking in with two imperial doctors carrying medicine boxes: "Two imperial doctors, please come in."
"Sun Shouzhen and Zhao Guangshen, the envoy of Weichen Taiyuan Hospital (Left Court Judge), paid homage to His Royal Highness, Your Highness Qianqiu."
Taiyuan Hospital established envoys, Tongzhi, and court judges, who were responsible for dianbo and other officials. The envoys were of the third rank, Tongzhi was of the fourth rank, and the left and right judges were of the fifth rank. Today, there are 135 imperial doctors in the Taiyuan Hospital.
, but there are only a few people who are qualified to take the prince’s pulse.
Li Yan helped Zhu Biao lean on the couch. Zhu Biao felt even more uncomfortable when he got up. During this time, Lao Zhu was not here. Although he delegated a lot of government affairs to Hu Weiyong, he still had to deal with a lot of things every day.
There is no need for a medical doctor to diagnose. I know that this is caused by overwork and overthinking.
"Well, you two beloved ministers, please sit down first. Liu Jin, please go and deliver my order. Just say that I am slightly unwell. Please ask Prime Minister Hu to preside over the morning affairs for the time being. I will be there later."
"promise."
Naturally, the imperial doctor didn't sit down, and stood in place. When the prince finished his instructions, he raised his head and looked at his face carefully, and then took turns to come forward to check the pulse.
Li Yan asked softly: "How is His Highness's health? Does the imperial doctor have any instructions?"
She actually wanted the imperial doctor to persuade the prince to rest and not go to the morning court.
"Your Highness's pulse is slightly weak but still stable. There is no serious problem in your body. It's just that you have been overworked and lost your vitality. The wind evil entered your body last night, causing you to feel dizzy today. I'll go down and boil some medicine in person. Your Highness remembers the recent past."
You should take a rest early during the period, and you must not have sex too frequently."
"I know it, and I will have to work hard for you two beloved ladies."
"I dare not say anything about my duties. Your Highness's body is related to the foundation of our Ming Dynasty. You must take care of yourself."
After a few words of advice, the imperial doctor hurriedly withdrew. They had to quickly prepare the medicinal materials and boil them. Although it was a minor illness, it could not be delayed. They should take the medicine as soon as possible and feel at ease.
Zhu Biao was about to stay after the imperial doctor left. Li Yan, who was anxiously standing by, burst into tears: "How can I not cherish my body so much? Where is this great concubine!"
Zhu Biao said helplessly: "You have to let me make it easier first, and then I have to eat breakfast."
Li Yan stepped forward to support her and said, "There's no need to collapse, I'll just take care of you."
He was not used to peeing on the bed, nor did he want to drink porridge on the bed, and he still had to go to court today, even if it was just to have a look. He was the backbone of the court when Lao Zhu was not around. Only when he saw him did the officials below feel at ease.
Things won't be messy.
It took more than half an hour to go to the toilet, wash up, change clothes, have breakfast, and then change into court clothes. However, Zhu Biao's energy improved significantly after having breakfast.
Liu Jin walked in and said, "Master, the sedan chair is ready."
Zhu Biao didn't like to ride in a sedan chair on weekdays. He could only sit in a sedan chair all day long and rarely walk around, but he felt a little powerless now. He just wanted to ride in a sedan chair to go to the morning court.
Special treatment for special circumstances. This time, instead of going around the left gate from Wenhua Hall and entering Fengtian Gate to get to Fengtian Hall, we went directly from Chunhe Gate through the middle left gate on the side of Fengtian Hall.
Even before they entered the palace, they could already hear the noise. It was obvious that they had not yet reached an agreement, and they were probably arguing about how far the battle should go.
"His Royal Highness is here!"
Zhu Biao, dressed in court uniform, walked up the imperial steps to the side hall and stood on the throne. He turned around and stood with his hands behind his hands to face the civil and military officials. The officials in the court immediately stopped and stood still. They quickly stretched out their hands to tidy up their court clothes and bowed neatly to say hello.
.
"I pay my respects to His Royal Highness, Your Highness. May your Majesty be in peace forever."
"Your Majesty, please excuse me."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Everyone hurriedly took a look at His Highness the Crown Prince while he was getting up, and saw that he only looked a little bad. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with him. The stone they raised in their hearts fell, and then they started shouting with red faces again...
