"The oral order three days ago?!" Yang Qingyuan paused. Does that mean Emperor Zhou has been in a coma for three days?!
It was a taboo to inquire about the emperor's physical condition without authorization, and Yang Qingyuan would not do such a thing in front of a strange eunuch.
Wang Zhi also knew what Yang Qingyuan was thinking, and explained in a low voice, "The diagnosis made by Dr. Li and Dr. Wan means that your Majesty will be awake for about half an hour every day after today. That's why I asked this servant to wait here."
Show goodwill, show goodwill nakedly.
Wang Zhi can become Yuhuatian's confidant, so naturally he is not a simple-minded person.
Yang Qingyuan is now considered a big shot in the court. Selling a favor to such a person in advance is not troublesome and can gain a big favor.
Wang Zhi just said this and stopped talking.
This sentence is enough!
The two of them didn't have much communication after that, and Wang Zhi led Yang Qingyuan to a side hall.
"Marquis Yang, please wait again. If His Majesty wakes up, he will naturally summon Marquis Yang. The royal kitchen is already preparing meals. If Marquis Yang has anything else to do, just give instructions to the servants!"
Yang Qingyuan slightly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law!"
Wang Zhi bowed again and exited the side hall.
Half an hour later, a meal came from the imperial kitchen.
Of course, it is not the delicacies that ordinary people imagine. Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty was born before Wei Mo, so he was not so particular about what he ate.
Although the materials are not too precious, the chefs in the imperial dining room will make ordinary materials into something you can't afford.
The typical representative is Wensi Tofu.
The craftsmanship of the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room is naturally first-class. Although the chef does not cook it himself, the average imperial chef is only half as good as the master of Qingwu Hospital.
Chicken, fish, pig and mutton, four meat dishes, plus five vegetarian dishes.
Even though Yang Qingyuan is a young man who looks like a scholar, even an average strong man would have to have three to five people to compare with him in terms of real appetite.
People who practice martial arts consume a lot, so they need to replenish a lot.
If the body cannot absorb enough energy, it will not be able to support the martial artist's needs for martial arts practice.
Although the group of monks in Shaolin Temple eat vegetarian food all day long, their vegetarian diet is a secret medicinal diet.
Otherwise, how could you possibly exercise your body and energy just by relying on vegetables and radish?!
Two-quarters of an hour later, Yang Qingyuan had finished the meal that was delivered to him, including four large bowls of rice.
Two hours after receiving the meal, there was still no summons from the emperor.
Yang Qingyuan can roughly predict the emperor's physical condition at this moment!
The government affairs of the imperial court were handled by various great scholars, but the emperor's delay in summoning him could not be because of busy official duties, but because the emperor had really been in a coma and never woke up.
That's why I haven't been able to summon him.
Wait until the waning moon hangs high in the sky and the rooster crows, which is the ugly time.
Wang Zhi, who had just brought him into the palace, came to the side hall again.
"Marquis Yang, Your Majesty invites you!"
Yang Qingyuan simply sorted out the description and followed Wang Zhi to the outside of Emperor Zhou's palace.
But Wang Zhi did not enter Emperor Zhou's palace with Yang Qingyuan, but stopped at the door.
"Master Yang, Your Majesty is waiting for you inside. It is inconvenient for me to enter, so please go in by yourself." After saying that, he stepped aside.
"Squeak!" After the creak of the palace door opening, Yang Qingyuan entered Emperor Zhou's palace.
In the palace at this moment, there was only one little maid accompanying Emperor Zhou, and the rest of the chambermaids had been dismissed by Emperor Zhou.
"Yang Qing, are you back?!"
Emperor Zhou's weak voice sounded in the palace, which was a sense of decline that his life was about to come to an end.
Yang Qingyuan couldn't help but think of the first time he met Emperor Zhou during his imperial examination.
Beautiful women and famous generals are not allowed to grow old in this world.
This is even more true for emperors.
Emperor Zhou was definitely a wise emperor in a traditional sense and from a traditional historical perspective.
The virtues of benevolence, wisdom and enlightenment, inherited from the early Zhou Dynasty, were frugal and economical in order to benefit the common people, help the poor, eliminate torture, reduce the law, pay too little for burials, and undermine public support.
As far as civil administration is concerned, Emperor Zhou has reached the pinnacle.
Emperor Taizu Gao made several northern expeditions in pursuit of the North, but he drove out the Tartars and restored China.
However, successive years of war have also greatly increased the burden on the people.
When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer.
This is not just a family story.
The appearance of Emperor Zhou was a good medicine to calm the nerves and remove blood stasis.
Lighten taxes, reduce corvee labor, build water conservancy projects, encourage farmers to teach farming, heal unjust prisons, and rectify the administration of officials.
In a historical sense, he may not be as important as Emperor Taizu Gao, but for contemporary people, he is undoubtedly the best monarch.
Perhaps from the perspective of later generations, Emperor Zhou had flaws, such as not punishing the prince in accordance with the law in the end.
But everyone knows that the dignitaries of later generations may not have eight methods.
It is undoubtedly the most shameless way to evaluate the ancients based on modern people's concepts.
Yue Wumu was the sinner who hindered national integration, while Qin Muchou was the hero who promoted cultural exchanges.
Seeing the haggard and angry Emperor Zhou, Yang Qingyuan couldn't help but choked up in his tone.
"It is indeed a blessing that I can see you after all these years... before I die..."
Emperor Zhou spoke intermittently, and did not even call himself "I"!
Whether it was Emperor Zhou for Yang Qingyuan or Yang Qingyuan for Emperor Zhou, their feelings were complicated.
Yang Qingyuan was Zhang Sanfeng's only junior brother, and Zhang Sanfeng was the eldest brother of Emperor Taizu Gao.
Although Yang Qingyuan was senior to Emperor Zhou, Emperor Zhou regarded Yang Qingyuan as a promising junior emotionally.
Yang Qingyuan walked to Emperor Zhou's side, but Yuhuatian's figure hidden in the dark flashed in front of Yang Qingyuan.
Her body movements are as fast as those of a ghost, not far behind the Oriental girl on Mount Hua.
This West Factory Supervisor must be practicing martial arts from the Sunflower lineage!
At the same time, Lijingmen leader Han Sumi also appeared behind Yang Qingyuan.
With Yang Qingyuan's innate spiritual sense, he almost didn't notice Han Sumi's presence when he entered the palace gate.
"Thirteen Years of Cicada" is indeed a miraculous knowledge of a hundred deaths and a lifetime, it is truly amazing!
"Lord Rain."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Qingyuan simply cupped his hands towards Yuhuatian, and then turned to look at Han Sumi, showing good etiquette.
"Aunt Han!"
That's right, Yang Qingyuan is such a double standard!
Whether it is the Dongxuan Realm or the Director of the West Factory, they are nothing to the current Yang Qingyuan.
The same goes for the leader of Lijingmen.
But Han Sumi is Yu Shi’s ex-girlfriend and almost became his wife. How can you compare to Yu Huatian?!
"You... please step back!" Emperor Zhou's weak voice sounded in the hall.
"Xiao Zi, please step back too!"
"yes!"
After accepting the order, the three of them all exited Emperor Zhou's palace.
At this time, it was the ugly time, and the queen who was originally serving Emperor Zhou also went to rest. Emperor Zhou was left with only Yang Qingyuan.
Yang Qingyuan slowly walked to Emperor Zhou's bedside and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude."
After saying this, Yang Qingyuan's fingers gently pressed on Emperor Zhou's veins.
Then a stream of pure Xiantian Yuan flowed through Emperor Zhou's meridians throughout his body, and Emperor Zhou's spirit was slightly lifted.
But Yang Qingyuan sighed in his heart, he was indeed running out of gas and there was no way he could save himself.
Even with the medical skills of national experts like Wan Mi Zhai and Li Bin Hu, they could only rely on the power of medicine to keep Emperor Zhou alive.
After the Xiantian Yuan circulated in Zhou Emperor's meridians, Emperor Zhou's complexion also looked slightly better.
"Hel me up!"
Immediately, Yang Qingyuan used his true energy to lift up the upper body of Emperor Zhou, and then folded the pillow on the side behind Emperor Zhou's back.
"You still have a way to make me...ahem...a little bit more comfortable."
"It's a pity that Wei Chen's method treats the symptoms but not the root cause!"
"Of course I know..., ahem... Li Binhu Wan Mi Zhai can't do anything. You, a young man, can... what can you do!"
The pattern between the two is more like gossip between relatives than a duel between a monarch and his ministers.
"Qingyuan, you don't have to be polite, let's talk like uncle and nephew."
Yang Qingyuan touched his nose in embarrassment. Let the uncle and nephew talk to each other! But the key is who is the uncle!
I don’t have to worry about this, but after all, it involves our ancestor Emperor Gao and my senior brother.
Of course it doesn't mean that they have to stick to vulgar etiquette, but we are your elders after all...
I don’t necessarily want to take advantage, but things like seniority are still very...
Of course, although this is true, it cannot be said face to face. In terms of age and experience, in two lifetimes combined, Yang Qingyuan cannot compare to Emperor Zhou.
Just be uncle! As long as Taizu and Senior Brother don't mind.
"Well done on Yuezhou's errands! Better fights in Beijing and Jinyang!"
When the battle between the Northern Territory and Jinyang was mentioned, Emperor Zhou couldn't stop smiling on his withered face.
Throughout his life, his martial arts was impeccable, but his martial arts was mediocre.
Most of those respected by later generations were emperors with outstanding martial arts, such as Emperor Xiaowu of the former Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong Wen of the former Tang Dynasty, but most of them turned a blind eye to their achievements in martial arts.
But the battle in the north allowed the Great Zhou Dynasty to rebuild the Yunzhong Protectorate, and the territory was hundreds of miles north.
In the battle of Jinyang, although it was a defensive counterattack, almost all the Jin elite were wiped out, and the holes were cleared, and Jianzhou and naturalization were just around the corner.
His achievements in these two battles were enough to mark his mark in the history books.
Even if his soul returns to the East now, he will have no regrets!
But he doesn't want to die yet, and as the emperor of Zhou Dynasty, he can't die either!
"This is what should be done! Even without His Majesty's will, I would not want to see the world in chaos."
"If it were anyone else, I wouldn't believe this, ahem...but you and Yanyi are the same kind of people!"
Hearing that Emperor Zhou compared himself with Yu Yanyi, Yang Qingyuan was a little proud.
"You were wronged in Zhou Mingsheng's case! I only found out about it later!"
Yang Qingyuan knew what Emperor Zhou was talking about.
Emperor Zhou could tolerate the political struggle between the two, but the prince used the weapons of the Changlin Army to ambush Yang Qingyuan, which made him very angry. This was an act that blatantly violated political rules and bottom lines.
But this matter was only found out by Yu Yanyi after the fight between Yang Qingyuan and the prince came to an end, and he was reported to him!
But at that time, the matter had been settled, and we could not change the order overnight. We could only write down the matter for the time being.
Emperor Zhou's trust in Yang Qingyuan was no less than that of Yanyi, because Yang Qingyuan's special status made him equivalent to a member of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
And this member of the royal family is never qualified to succeed!
After the Zhou Mingsheng case, Emperor Zhou still gave the prince a chance to prove himself.
If the prince can conquer the Dali Temple left by Yang Qingyuan, divide the talents from the first and third lines, suppress and bribe them, and finally use them for his own use.
That shows that the prince has the mind and skills of an emperor.
Emperor Zhou can also forgive his previous mistakes.
Selecting a qualified heir to the empire is more important than anything else. At that time, Yang Qingyuan, Wang Hua and Li Xunhuan will no longer be important.
But the prince did not complete this test.
Not only did he perfectly arouse the hostility of Dali Temple, but he also continued to suppress the first and third clans. Not only did he demote the last first and third clan officials in the capital to Chuzhou, but he also allowed his subordinates to continue impeaching people from the first and third clans.
Most of the ministers in the court were dissatisfied with him.
Needless to say about the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Li Xunhuan, the censor of Zuoqian Capital, was impeached by the princelings on a daily basis. How could the Metropolitan Procuratorate tolerate this?!
The Metropolitan Procuratorate cannot say that it is the same thing, but it has always been me, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, who impeaches others. You keep staring at the third-in-command of our Metropolitan Procuratorate all day long. What do you want to do?!
If it hadn't been for Cheng Qingsong from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to stop him, a mountain of memorials to impeach officials under the crown prince would have been piled up!
When it comes to trolling people, when has the Procuratorate ever been afraid of anyone?!
Even the attitude of the cabinet ministers towards the prince is not very good. There are now five bachelors in the second pavilion and the fourth palace.
Except for the nominal bachelor of Dongge who joined the prince, the remaining four people.
Qian Muqian, a great scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, was a member of Tian Wenzong and the Minister of Rites. His etiquette training was nothing to say, but this great Confucian got angry when he saw the prince.
The officials from the first and third departments were all his students, and they were demoted out of the capital one by one without making any mistakes. This is equivalent to the fact that Qian Muqian's most proud disciples were almost all expelled! How could this give the prince a good look?!
Yu Yanyi, the Grand Scholar of Wuying Palace and the Minister of the Ministry of War, is currently the Chief Assistant of the Pavilion. He is an upright person. He was the one who investigated the Prince's ambush and assassination of Yang Qingyuan. At this time, Yu Yanyi's good impression of the Prince was basically zero. After that, the Prince's compatriots
The younger brother also took human life seriously, and the prince also suppressed Yang Qingyuan who wanted to seek justice. Yu Yanyi's temperament and his favorability towards the prince were basically negative!
Sun Fuji, the chief scholar of Wenhuadian University, is an old fox with an ambiguous attitude.
The only one who has a fairly good relationship with the prince is Li Hongyi, the great scholar of Jianji Palace. It was because the prince supervised the country during the Battle of Jinyang and cooperated well with Li Hongyi on government affairs, so he had a good impression of him.
This outrageous level, to use an imaginary metaphor, is equivalent to Emperor Zhou asking the prince to answer questions on a test paper. The prince not only refused to answer, but also tore up the test paper and beat two of the invigilators.
Of course, even so, Emperor Zhou did not depose the prince.
Because deposing the prince not only abolishes his right to inherit the throne, but also predetermines his unnatural death.
Liu Rong, the crown prince of the former Emperor Xiaojing of the Han Dynasty, Yang Yong, the crown prince of the former Emperor Gaozu Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the former Emperor Taizong Wen of the Tang Dynasty, and Fusu, the crown prince of the former Emperor Qin I.
The bloody facts were placed in front of Emperor Zhou, and few of the deposed princes had a good ending.
For the new king who succeeds to the throne, killing the deposed prince is the only way to eliminate the root cause, to eliminate future troubles forever, and to eliminate the opportunity for him and his gang members to make a comeback.
Therefore, the edict to depose the prince is equivalent to the edict to kill the prince.
No matter how bad the prince is, he is still the flesh and blood of Emperor Zhou and his favorite woman, Queen Xianxiaoduan.
No matter how wise Emperor Zhou was, he was still a father, how could he be so cruel?!
