Chapter 244 I can bear it(2/2)
Xiao Jing's eyes were red, and he hurriedly took the medicine bowl, and quickly put his hand into the silver basin held by the palace maid next to him. He put the towel inside in the water for a few times, wrung it out, and then used this warm
The towel wiped Emperor Hongzhi's mouth and the medicine stains on his beard.
Zhu Youtang looked at him deeply and said, "After all, I can bear it."
"Your Majesty." The bitterness in Xiao Jing's eyes flashed, "I don't dare to deceive Your Majesty. There is really no disaster. Now we have sent factory guards to inquire along the water transport. I think there will be news soon.
.”
"Don't lie to me. Even if you hide it, what can you do? In the end, you still don't want me to know."
Emperor Hongzhi stretched out his hand, opened his palms, and said, "Take it out."
"Your Majesty." Xiao Jing's voice was a bit choked, and he wiped his tears with his sleeves. After another moment of silence, he took out two memorials from his sleeves, one from Jin Yiwei and one from Dongchang.
They were delivered together into the hands of the emperor.
The two memorials were very light, light and weightless, but they made Zhu Youtang's wrists shake a little. He calmed down, took out the thin piece of paper from the seal and looked at it.
"Puzhou."
These two words suddenly penetrated into Zhu Youtang's eyes, followed by lines of content,
"On Renyin day in August of the fifteenth year of Hongzhi, the earth dragon turned over in Puzhou, Henan. The Yellow River burst its banks and overflowed. The flood may have flooded the entire Puzhou territory. The six counties under Puzhou's rule were severely affected. Officials and people were killed and injured, and the roads were damaged.
The details of the blockage are not known, so the chief envoy of Shandong Province wrote the memorial in tears!"
As he read word by word, Emperor Hongzhi's cheeks trembled. The words in this memorial were very neat, but the strokes did not look like words. Instead, they were like sharp swords, moving along his lines.
The eyes penetrate straight into the internal organs.
It stirred pain in his abdominal cavity and five internal organs. Puzhou, Puzhou reminded him of what he said that day - "Your Majesty, please send men out of Beijing to go to the west, to Henan and to the direction of the Central Plains."
I've obviously told you something, why didn't I listen to you in the first place?
My son and my son-in-law are probably already in Puzhou, starting the so-called disaster relief work.
But what kind of disaster could they save?
What disaster could they save?
That Puzhou could not even submit the memorial to Beijing, and the neighboring Shandong Chief Envoy had to submit the memorial on his behalf. What a miserable situation Puzhou must be in. Are they alive or dead at this time?
Emperor Hongzhi's sallow face suddenly turned as white as paper, and he clenched his teeth. His body began to sway, as if he was about to fall down at any time, but he grabbed the lamp holder next to him with his hands, gritting his teeth and refusing to fall.
.
Xiao Jing hurriedly reached out to help him, but at this moment, he found that Emperor Hongzhi's pale face gradually turned red again, and then a wisp of blood slowly flowed down from his nostrils, and then blood also overflowed from the corners of his mouth.
Xiao Jing burst into tears instantly and shouted loudly: "Come here, go to Dr. Xuan quickly!"
Immediately afterwards, the entire main hall of Qianqing Palace was filled with the sound of hurried footsteps. One by one, they ran out. Some people were so nervous that they didn't know what to do. In a hurry, they actually bumped into each other.
"Everyone come back!" At this moment, Emperor Hongzhi shouted these three words while holding his breath.
The eunuchs who had just ran out of the palace immediately stopped.
Emperor Hongzhi wiped his lips and nose with his hands, looked at the bright red blood on his fingers, and called out: "Xiao Jing."
Xiao Jing immediately knelt on the ground and said, "My servant is here."
"Go get a wet handkerchief and wipe the blood stains under your nose and lips for me, and then prepare the carriage for me to ride to court."
"Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Xiao Jing suddenly raised his head, only to be greeted by the tragic but resolute face of Emperor Hongzhi, with a tone that could not be refused, "Go quickly!"
"Slave."
Xiao Jing's eyes were already covered with tears, but he kowtowed heavily, "I obey the order!"
