In the past two years, has Gao Pragmatic, who had the ambition to save the Ming Dynasty, made any positive contributions to the Ming Dynasty?
There are still some, but not many.
Counting back from when he accompanied Gao Gong to Beijing, in the past two years or so, he took advantage of the situation and made some suggestions to Gao Gong, most of which were adopted, while a few were temporarily shelved.
Generally speaking, it has certain positive significance, but if you calculate it carefully, you will find that these suggestions and opinions are scattered, most of them are based on the situation, not systematic, and they do not have a decisive impact.
There is nothing we can do about the systemic aspect. After all, Gao Pragmatic is not in charge by himself, and Gao Gong is a person with a strong subjective consciousness. As his nephew, Gao Pragmatic can only make side remarks in everything, affecting his thinking and ideas.
He must make a decision, and it is impossible to overstep his authority and help him make the decision.
So this matter should not be rushed. After all, there must be a limit to the power of a fox and a tiger. The real tiger is still in front of the stage. How big does it matter to him, a little fox?
But when it comes to being decisive, Gao Pragmatic feels that something truly decisive will happen soon after he has traveled through the past ten years.
Long Qing is ill.
This emperor is only thirty-five years old this year. Logically speaking, he is in his prime, a person is mentally mature and physically at his peak. Even if he has an occasional illness, it is not worth making a fuss about.
However, now all the officials in the capital had to make a fuss - in today's dynasty, the emperor was in a daze at first, and he was inconsistent and even incoherent during the political discussions with his ministers. Then he learned that Yin Zhengmao had completely pacified Wei Yinbao a month ago.
After the chaos, the excited emperor suddenly stood up on the spot, but before he could speak, he fainted and fell to the ground!
Above the dynasty, everything suddenly fell into chaos.
Meng Chong was so shocked by this unexpected incident that his legs and feet were weak, and his speech was as incoherent as the emperor. He didn't know what to do.
Gao Gong, Guo Pu, and Zhang Juzheng, the three assistant ministers, obliged and hurriedly came to visit. In the end, it was Gao Gong, the chief assistant of the emperor's division, who made the decision: the dynasty should be terminated immediately, and all officials should return to their respective offices without delay; and the emperor should be helped to the carpet in his original place.
Lie down for the time being, and do not move His Majesty's dragon body without authorization. Immediately call the imperial doctor for diagnosis and treatment without delay. Inform the queen that the concubine and the prince will come immediately without delay.
The three words "no delay" came from Gao Gong's mouth, and no one among the hundreds of officials present dared to say more.
This is not only the power of a veteran minister of the Yuan Dynasty, but also a kind of responsibility.
In particular, the emperor's dragon body was not allowed to be moved without authorization and he was allowed to lie on the spot. This was a decision that no one other than Gao Gong dared to make.
Even though everyone knows that the emperor cannot be moved casually at this time, lest an accident occurs and the responsibility is unclear, the problem is... the other party is not an ordinary person, he is the emperor! Is it ridiculous to let the emperor lie on the ground without any image like this?
?
However, Gao Gong dares to do so.
For Gao Gong, there was nothing he dared not do as long as it was beneficial to the emperor.
Gao Pragmatic only found out about what had happened before following Prince Zhu Yijun as he hurried to the scene. However, at this moment, he could not do anything and did not dare to do anything.
He was a little nervous.
It is still only the second half of the fifth year of Longqing. According to the original history, Emperor Longqing should have a little more than half a year to live. However, in history, although his health is deteriorating, he does not seem to have made such a big noise. Now he has actually made such a big noise.
The impact of fainting directly in the imperial court was really bad.
What would the people of the world think? What would all the officials think? What would people like Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao think?
Although Gao Pragmatic had already prepared for Long Qing's death, his preparations were all based on the time of Long Qing's death in history - it could be later, but not earlier.
If it is done too early, some preparations may not have been fully completed, and there is no guarantee that accidents will not occur.
Fortunately, the emperor woke up quickly - just as the imperial physician reached out to feel his pulse, the emperor woke up on his own.
Long Qing glanced vaguely at the three pavilion elders and two imperial physicians, as well as the queen, concubine, and prince, who were surrounding him, and his eyes gradually became clear.
While you were talking to each other, "Your Majesty, are you okay?", "What do you think, Your Majesty?" and other nonsense, Long Qing waved his hand without hesitation and said: "Teacher, help me up."
Gao Gong didn't think much, and immediately stepped forward to help the emperor up, and subconsciously asked: "Is the emperor's dragon body ill?" At the same time, he cast doubtful eyes on Meng Chong, Feng Bao, Chen Hong and others.
Meng Chong looked dull and shook his head at Gao Gong. Feng Bao looked sad, but he didn't seem to feel Gao Gong's gaze. Chen Hong avoided his eyes, opened his mouth, then closed his mouth and lowered his head, remaining silent.
Long Qing seemed to be more afraid of Gao Gong's anger than worried about his own health. He changed the subject with a grimace and said: "It's nothing serious... I think I'm just a little tired. It's not a problem. It's not a problem. Well, where did I talk about just now?"
?The Wei thief is destroyed? Yes, yes, Wei Yinbao is destroyed. Yin Zhengmao did a good job. Teacher and Mr. Zhang strategized and recommended..."
Gao Gong frowned and said, "Your Majesty, we can talk about these things later. What happened to you just now?"
When Teacher Gao became serious, Long Qing was actually a little scared. His eyes flinched and he coughed again before saying: "Well, I think I stood up too quickly and felt my eyes go dark... Doctor, this is very common, right?"
?That’s what, what’s it called?”
Gao Gong frowned and looked at the two imperial physicians - the imperial physician cannot only diagnose and treat by one person, but needs two or more people to supervise each other. He confirmed that because of the urgency, only two came.
Now they think, why are we the two unlucky ones?
This is not easy to answer.
The older imperial physician was still experienced. He nodded slightly towards Gao Gong and said: "Yuanfu Mingjian, the emperor may be talking about dizziness. Judging from the description of the emperor's condition just now, it is more like ordinary black eye dizziness."
.”
Even Gao Gong knows this, but his intuition is not that simple. Squatting, sitting for too long, and then getting up too quickly are indeed prone to "dark eyes", but it is rare to hear that people can faint directly, let alone this happened to the emperor.
When it comes to your body, you can't be careless.
So Gao Gong continued to ask: "So, why is His Majesty's symptoms so serious and what caused them? Can the two imperial doctors make a clear diagnosis?"
The two imperial doctors looked at each other, and the older one still responded: "Yuanfu Mingjian, generally speaking, there are three main causes of dizziness: qi and blood stasis, qi deficiency and blood loss, or kidney essence deficiency.
.”
Gao Gong continued to ask: "Then what point is the emperor corresponding to now?"
"This..." The imperial doctor glanced at the emperor subconsciously. Long Qing seemed expressionless, but his eyes were focused, murderous intent was evident, and he shook his head very slightly.
The imperial doctor understood the emperor's intention, coughed slightly, and said with a clear face: "Yuan Fu, please forgive me. I haven't had time to investigate in detail just now, but now that your majesty has woken up on his own, it seems that there is no serious problem. Could you please temporarily
Go back to the harem to settle down, and I will take a closer look at the situation and find out more about it?"
Gao Gong was not well versed in medical science and did not dare to contradict the imperial doctor on this matter. He had no choice but to nod his head and explain that they must diagnose and treat the patient carefully.
Long Qing was granted amnesty and said hurriedly: "Then let's go back to the harem first. Teacher, I've been feeling dizzy lately. I'll leave all the court affairs to you. You just deal with it. Just inform the Chief of Ceremonies about the draft and I'll let them know."
Approval as usual."
Gao Gong looked at the emperor who was anxious to leave, hesitated to speak, and finally had to hand over his hands and said: "Handling government affairs is originally my duty, your Majesty, don't worry about it. I will try to write as briefly as possible for the recent voting draft, so as not to worry about it."
I am tired of Your Majesty."
"Okay, okay, there is a teacher in the cabinet, so I don't have to worry about it. Thank you for the hard work, teacher." After Long Qing finished speaking, he immediately turned around and said, "Get off and go back to the harem."
Then he looked at the queen, the concubine and the prince who were all worried, and said: "The queen and the concubine can go back first, don't worry too much. Jun'er, you come with me."
