Chapter 244 Live the way you want the most

"Long live grandpa, you're awake!" The eunuchs and guards cheered together.

"Long live grandpa, you're awake!" The cheers quickly spread throughout the garden.

However, when Zhao Hao heard the good news, he helped Duke Cheng and rushed from the Jade Pai to Jujing Pavilion, he saw that the atmosphere here was a bit strange.

Gao Gong Zhang Juzheng, who was on the night, was still outside the pavilion, with a happy and sad expression on his face.

"What's the situation?" Zhao Hao asked his father-in-law in a low voice.

"Your Majesty is awake, but..." Zhang Juzheng pointed to his temple and whispered: "It seems that something is wrong here."

"..." Zhao Hao thought to himself that Li Shizhen really said.

In fact, when March came to diagnose the emperor, Li Shizhen privately told Zhao Hao that according to the symptoms described by Zhang Xianggong, the spirochete of the Folangi may have invaded the emperor's brain.

When the emperor went to court in the leap month of February, the emperor's lies were a sign.

Although the emperor's consciousness returned to normal later, Li Shizhen and Wan Mizhai both judged that if the emperor left behind any sequelae this time, there would be a problem with his head...

And this time, it's permanent.

"Don't play me, this is obviously my Ximen Mansion, why has it become the palace again?" At this time, a hoarse cry suddenly came from the pavilion and said, "Lai Bao, Lai Xing, where are you dead? Where are Yue Niang?!"

"Your Majesty, you don't recognize us?" Then the woman's cry sounded, and Feng Bao's screams:

"Hurry and hold down the emperor, don't let him fall off the bed!"

~~

Outside, the Grand Secretary is knowledgeable and talented. Although Mr. Zhao and Duke Cheng read less, they did not read a lot of Huang Shu, and they were stunned.

Duke Cheng Guofu praised the same as he struggled: "Zhuang Zhou dreamed... butterfly?"

"Oh." Zhang Juzheng sighed and whispered: "Your Majesty regards himself as a character in the book..."

"This is temporary, right?" Gao Yi was also stuttered in fear. If this had been bad, wouldn't the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty become Ximen Qing?

Mr. Zhao is sweating like this waterfall. Okay, the emperor finally lives what he wants most...

Only Gao Gong knelt on the ground, and said in pain without saying a word, his lips were bitten...

The ministers waited for the dawn before they saw Wanmizhai coming out of it with tired steps.

"Mr. Wan, how is the emperor?" Everyone hurriedly surrounded him and asked.

"I took the injection, took the medicine, and fell asleep." Wanmizhai replied.

"Then..." Gao Gong asked with a hint of luck: "Did the emperor get hysterical last night?"

"It can be said that." Wanmizhai said.

"Then you and Mr. Li will definitely be cured?" Gao Gongba looked at him and asked, "You can all save such a serious illness..."

"The human brain is the most complex and incomprehensible part." Wan Mizhai shook his head slowly and said, "If it is a syndrome of liver qi stagnation, phlegm and stasis blocking orifices identified by traditional medicine, there is still a treatment method."

After a pause, he sighed and said, "But I said before, this is caused by the disease that has penetrated the brain and damaged the brain. This is an irreversible process... At least with the level of Jiangnan Hospital, I don't know how to treat it."

"What will happen?" Gao Gong asked in a stern voice.

"Early manifested as personality changes, anxiety, irritability, and even personality changes..." Wan Mizhai explained in a low voice: "The emperor's way of treating himself as another person can be regarded as the last one."

"How will it develop in the future?"

"It is usually memory, computing power, cognitive decline, and intellectual level deterioration. Severe dementia, paraplegia, and vegetative people may occur in the late stage of the disease." Wan Mizhai said with a serious expression: "However, there is also the possibility that it can be maintained at a certain level of intelligence through long-term treatment and does not deteriorate. But in short, the patient must not be stimulated now. It is necessary to create the best recovery environment for him, otherwise the condition will deteriorate quickly."

"..." Gao Gong nodded with a complicated expression and did not ask any further questions.

"Then the emperor has always regarded himself as a high-ranking official?" Zhang Juzheng suddenly asked.

"The bigger possibility is intermittent." Wan Mizhai replied: "But as the disease progresses, it is hard to say, and we still have to observe it."

"Oh my God! What is this to torture my emperor into?" Gao Yi said in tears.

Duke Cheng also said tremblingly that he would go to the Temple of Heaven to worship the sky and ask God to let His Majesty have a way to live.

Wanmizhai endured it, but still couldn't help saying, "It's already a miracle among miracles, and I really can't ask for too much."

"You don't understand." Several princes and ministers shook their heads and sighed.

~~

In the next few days, Longqing's disease development would develop as Wanmizhai said.

Sometimes he would regain his mind, but suddenly he was crazy again, treating himself as Ximen Qing...

And as time goes by, the emperor's normal brain time becomes shorter and shorter, and when Ximen Qing's time becomes longer and longer...

Except for the two miracle doctors, the imperial doctors of the Imperial Hospital, and even the doctors of the Zhairen Medical Association, they all showed them to the emperor and were still powerless.

The two empresses were still ill and rushed to seek medical treatment. They asked monks and Taoists to exorcise evil spirits to the emperor, which was of course useless.

This made the ministers worried and broke their hearts. But they could not continue to waste this way. The three Grand Secretary discussed taking turns to send one person to serve here, and the other two returned to the cabinet to handle state affairs and take care of the prince's studies.

Although Duke Cheng suffered a stroke, he was still very sensible and took the initiative to join the shift to reduce the burden on the Grand Secretary.

Zhao Hao wanted to join, but unfortunately he was not qualified.

That's how June entered.

On June 16th, the sky was gloomy and humid, without a trace of wind.

Zhang Juzheng and Gao Yi were reading the memorial in the cabinet, but Zhang Dashou suddenly ran in and said that the emperor uploaded the two great scholars to meet immediately.

When they left Wenyuan Pavilion, they saw that the prince was also led out of Wenhua Hall by Du Mao. The two great scholars had a premonition that the emperor was afraid that there would be something big to order...

When the group arrived at Jujing Pavilion where the emperor was resting, Feng Bao, who was at the door, let them go in directly.

Zhang Juzheng and Gao Yi went into the pavilion and entered the inner bedroom. This was the first time they had come here.

After entering, they finally saw the thin emperor. There were obvious dark red scars on Longqing's face and neck. It was a mark left after the sores healed, which was shocking.

No wonder the emperor has been reluctant to see anyone...

The queen and the imperial concubine stood on the left side of the couch, high arch knelt in front of the couch, and the eldest princess stood beside the couch, gently fanning the emperor.

"Father..." the prince cried timidly, lying on the ground and did not dare to look at the emperor.

He was scared.

Longqing didn't blame him, but let him get up and stand on the right side of the couch. When Zhang Juzheng, Gao Yi and Duke Cheng who came later knelt on the side of Gao Gong, the emperor slowly waved his hand.

Feng Bao held a yellow cover edict in his hand, but did not dare to read it, so he knelt down and cried bitterly. "Long live grandpa, think twice, the prince is still young..."

This also caused several women to cry, and the fat man was so scared that he cried.

"Don't disturb Your Majesty, he can't stand the stimulation." Li Shizhen, who served on the side, quickly spoke to stop him, for fear that the emperor would transform into a high-ranking official and even gave Long Qing a needle.

Everyone was so scared that they were silent.

"I know my own illness. I don't blame anyone. I just take it upon myself..." Long Qing spoke slowly and pointed to his head with difficulty, saying, "This place has become a mess. I don't know when it will become another person, and I don't know if... can I change back to myself. So I have to take advantage of my soberness and explain the major affairs of the country."

As he said this, he said sternly: "Remember!"

"Yes..." Feng Bao had to wipe his tears and said in a trembling voice:

"The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun ordered: I inherited the great reign of my ancestors. I have been suffering from this disease for only six years now. I was lucky enough to survive. However, my soul was damaged and my heart was hard to heal. I thought I could not defeat the entrusted entrusted by the previous emperor. I wanted to release my burden, so I used my life to cover up my heart and make a big plan."

Feng Bao paused for a while, but he raised his tone intentionally or unintentionally, and then proclaimed:

"The crown prince can ascend the throne. I am called the Supreme Emperor and retire to Guanghan Palace. The new emperor is young. I will now give it to Duke Chengguo Zhu Xizhong and the cabinet Zhang Juzheng, and the two Dukes Gaoyi cooperate to assist, abide by the ancestral system, and ensure the imperial map. The merits of you and others are in the country and will never be forgotten! I admire this!"

Duke Chengguo and Zhang Juzheng were lying on the ground and griefed, and the three of them cried and said, "I have received the kindness of the emperor and swear to repay the death. Although the Eastern Palace is young, the ancestors are in charge of law. I am loyal to the Eastern Palace. If there is anyone who cannot walk, I dare not love his death. I hope that the emperor will be calm and nourish his will, and he will be cured as soon as possible!"

While saying that, he burst into tears. The two palaces and the prince also cried. Longqing scolded again: "I am not dead yet..."

The crying came to an abrupt end.

After the three ministers of the regent and worshipped the Sijun, Zhang Juzhengfang replied: "Is the name of Gao Jiao in the imperial edict?"

"This edict was written by Master Gao, and his name was also what he insisted on removing..." Long Qing finally burst into tears at this time and said, "This cruel old man must abandon my father and son and leave. I can't help but keep him, so what can I do?"

"The emperor is magnanimous and forgives me for his crime..." Gao Gong cried like rain and said, "However, the guilty minister cannot forgive me, his heart is as if he is withered and his thoughts are gone, and he cannot serve the new king anymore..."

"Oh..." Long Qing waved his hand helplessly. He knew that Master Gao was avoiding disaster. But he couldn't protect him like this. He could barely keep him in the cabinet. He was also an obsessive character and would not have a good ending...

It would be better to agree with him to take the initiative to retreat, so that he would not break up in all aspects, and Master Gao's evening scene would not be too desolate.

He actually wanted to keep Gao Gong by his side, but when he thought of the encounter between Chen Xuanli and Gao Lishi in the history books, he was not selfish.

Just like a child, begging: "Then you have to come to see me often..."

"Yes, the old minister must come to see the emperor often!" Gao Gong cried so hard that his nose was falling, and he kowtowed to Longqing.

He knew this was impossible. If he parted today, it would be a lasting confession. He would never be able to return to the capital in this life, let alone see him again?

Then the emperor said to the eldest princess who cried in tears: "You will be the eldest princess in the future. You must take good care of the emperor for me!"

The eldest princess knelt on the ground and cried to answer the order.

"By the way, where did that guy Zhao Hao go? What he promised me has not done yet?" Long Qing looked around and asked again.
