Zhao Hao was waiting outside, and when he heard Longqing's call, he hurried in and kowtowed.

"It's been half a year. Have you promised me to do it?" Long Qing asked expectantly.

"Go back to the emperor, it's done." Zhao Hao quickly raised a heavy wooden box high.

Long Qing waved his hand, Meng Chong, who had already returned from Wudang Mountain, quickly took it with both hands.

"I know that you and the two miracle doctors saved my life. I must thank you very much." Long Qing smiled at Zhao Hao again.

Feng Bao, who was standing by, read out three imperial edicts, one was to grant Wan Mizhai, the director of Jiangnan Hospital, the "Medical Saint", and awarded the fifth-rank crown and doctor He'an, and to pass the imperial son to Shang Baocheng.

Another way is to confer Li Shizhen as the "Sage of Medicine", and also give him a fifth-rank crown and a security guard, and his son was Shang Baocheng.

Finally, he was awarded the title of Zhao Hao, who was appointed as the Shaoqing of the Fourth-rank Taichang Temple, and was the admiral of the Four-Emperor Hall, and was responsible for maritime transportation affairs and all matters at sea.

In short, he is in charge of everything in the sea...

However, Mr. Zhao did not dare to obey the imperial edict because his son's rank could not exceed his father, and his father was only a fifth-rank Chaozhou Tongzhi Acting as a magistrate.

"Young Master Zhao doesn't know that the emperor has promoted the rank of the fourth-rank official, the secretary of the Zhanshi Mansion, and he has served as a lecturer in the imperial lecture." Feng Bao smiled.

"I thank my father for your kindness." Zhao Hao quickly kowtowed to Longqing.

"Your father is the first top scholar I have chosen, and I want to be very useful." Long Qing glanced at Ning An, who could not hide his joy, and said quietly: "But he is a dog... He has a bad temper and dares to beat the imperial court. I have to let him thorn his temper, but I didn't expect that he would do it... It's a pity that I can't use it anymore, so let's come back to assist the new king."

In fact, based on Longqing's temperament, it would be better to let Zhao Shouzheng never return to the capital. But before he abdicated, he gave a gift package, and everyone had a share, and even gave Master Gao an iron coupon to avoid death. How could he miss his precious sister?

Can he not satisfy Ning An's request? Anyway, if something happens in the future, it has nothing to do with him...

After everyone finished the explanation, Longqing asked them to retreat, leaving Meng Chong, who had specialized in screening skills, to play films for himself.

The silence in Jujing Pavilion has returned to its original state, and suddenly there is a melodious and cheerful piano sound. It is the horse-headed fiddle played by the palace musicians.

With the sound of horseshoe piano, a green grassland was projected on the snow-white curtain.

In the blue sky and the green grass, a red horse rides from far to near.

When I got closer, I saw clearly that there was a rude girl wearing Mongolian clothes on the horse's back. I saw that she was charming and charming, and her figure was exactly the same as the woman in the portrait.

But the person on the portrait is dead, but the person on the screen smiles gracefully, lively and lively, and even throws charming eyes at Longqing and calls him "Your Majesty"...

"My beloved, you are indeed alive..." Seeing her charming dancing on the grassland, Long Qing burst into tears and stretched out his hand to touch the screen.

That was the person he missed and loved deeply every day and night...

That was the flowers blooming for him, withering at the most beautiful moment. Who would remember that she had come to this world?

"My beloved concubine, I will not forget you..." Long Qingren's tears flowed, his eyes gradually became blurred. Then he murmured in a obviously different tone: "Pinger, my sister, I can't bear to leave you in my heart..."

Even if the world forgets me, even I forget myself...

The next day, the abdication edict was issued to the world, and both China and the world were shocked. No one expected that Longqing was so ill that he had to change his ten-year-old prince to become the emperor.

A ten-year-old emperor, how to govern the country?

However, the sad people thought about it again. It seemed that Emperor Longqing, who was in his thirties, had never governed the country...

Thinking of this, it seems that it is no difference between how many years the emperor is... so people are less worried.

As the Ministry of Rites, Taichang Temple, Honglu Temple and other government offices began to prepare for the abdication hall in full swing, people's attention was completely shifted from the old emperor to the new emperor.

Soon, the Imperial Heavenly Prison announced that the 26th of this month was the auspicious day of the zodiac, and a grand abdication ceremony was scheduled to be held on that day.

At this time, it was less than ten days before Longqing decided to abdicate.

This is a ceremony of abdication that the Ming Dynasty had never had before. Even in history, there was only Wanyan Gou's reference that time, but the ritual ministers were able to set etiquette rules and prepare for such a short time. This efficiency is really unreasonable.

I don’t know if these yamen are too lazy or if there is some special force that is driving them to perform at their best...

On the 25th, Duke Cheng led the Duke of England and Duke Ding to pay homage to the heaven and earth, Taimiao and the country.

Some officials also began to set up ceremonial guards in full swing, setting up the imperial throne in the Huangji Hall, setting up treasure cases in the middle, and long and large cases on the left and right of the main hall. There was another imperial case on the east board, and the western board was set up to form a table case on the north and south. As soon as the main hall entered the door, the heir to worship the emperor, and laying a bedding for the worship...

The people in Beijing also began to work hard, and every family prepared incense table candlesticks, flowers and wine, and prepared to celebrate together tomorrow.

Although they experienced a throne ceremony six years ago, the emperor's new mourning was covered with white cloth everywhere, and all etiquette was simple, without such a festive festive atmosphere.

Zhangyimen Nei Street, the key road to enter and exit the capital of southern provinces, is the most prosperous place in the outer city. At this time, it is even more decorated with lights and hawking. This is the shrewd merchant who is sensitively seizing this business opportunity and is desperately selling their goods.

And some people just think they are noisy...

An inconspicuous mule cart was about to leave the city, but it was blocked on the street for more than half an hour and had not yet left Zhangyi Gate.

The old servant who was with the car sighed. He was used to the ceremonial gongs everywhere, and the road was unobstructed.

The old woman in the car was sweating and complaining. The only one who was bearded like a steel needle and eyes like a copper bell did not say a word, but looked at the bustling streets outside through the screen window, and didn't know what she was thinking.

He was actually the former chief minister of the cabinet who had just retired, the Grand Secretary of the Zhongji Palace, and the Young Master Gao Gong.

Gao Gong kept saying that he would wait until it was cooler next month before setting off, but he secretly went to Chencang, asking Gao Chao to find a mule cart that no one knew. He only brought some dry food and changing clothes, and got into the car with his wife and quietly left Shichang Street.

No one informed him, and only left a letter to Gao Cai in the house, asking him to find a way to send his book back to Gaojiazhuang, and then sell the house for a thousand taels of silver to Zhaojia Hutong to count the subsequent treatment fee for his elder brother.

"Master, it's not me who said you. The emperor has given you a return home from Chiyi. Why do you have to do so hard for yourself? The emperor also asked you to wait until the autumn is cold before setting off. Why do you have to leave early? Isn't this asking for trouble yourself?" Mrs. Gao complained unhappily:

Gao Gong said with a stern face: "At that time, so many people will see you off, and the people will also watch along the way. I feel embarrassed!"

"There is no shame in this? You are resigning yourself." Mrs. Gao said unconvincedly: "Besides, this is not the first time, why didn't you feel embarrassed last time?"

"Because that time five years ago, I knew I would come back, and they knew it too!" Gao Gong's face twisted and said in a muffled voice: "Do you know how many people I offended, how many people want to joke this time? Maybe someone will throw stones!"

"Ah, you fucked day and night, and you got the result of this?" Mrs. Gao was shocked.

"I don't want to be as good as you today, so don't make trouble here!" Gao Gong was so angry that he blew his beard and stared at him.

"Oh..." Thinking of the terribleness when he got angry, Mrs. Gao didn't dare to say anything.

The carriage finally drove out of Zhangyi Gate and went south along the official road. It crossed the Liuli Bridge at noon.

It's late June, and it's still very hot at noon. It's almost a month since it's raining, and the road is filled with mirage. Not to mention people, even the big green mule pulling cart is so hot that it's dejected and its ears are drooping.

Gao Chao couldn't stand it, so he discussed with Gao Gong that we should go to the shade of trees on the roadside to take a rest first, and wait until the sun is less poisonous before we set off on the road?

Gao Gong wanted to stay away from the capital as soon as possible, but when he looked at his wife who was about to have heatstroke, he had to nod and agree.

The coachman was so amnesty that he and Gao Chao pulled a mule cart to the dry willow trees on the side of the road to seek shade.

After the carriage stopped, Gao Chao quickly found a ventilation place to put down the bench, and helped the old lady get out of the car and go over to sit down.

When he came back and asked the master to get out of the car, Gao Gong refused to get off and said that he was fine in the car.

In fact, his waist is almost broken...

But this place is too close to the capital, and it is also a key road to enter and exit the capital. Gao Gong was worried that someone from the yamen would pass by and recognize him.

He could see it openly, but in fact he was even more shy than the bride, and he wanted to find a veil to cover it.

Gao Chao couldn't persuade him, so he had to take a kettle for the master and hand him a big cake that he had baked last night.

Gao Gong sat in the carriage, chewing water and biting the cake with a bite. But he couldn't swallow it, but he stuffed his mouth full, choking his eyes red...

He couldn't help but lean his head up against the wall of the car, feeling like a dog.

Just as he was complaining, he suddenly heard a rider stopping not far away and immediately asked loudly: "Do you dare to ask if your master is Xinzheng Duke?"

Gao Chao was eating big cakes with meat sauce and it was delicious. Hearing this, he quickly ran to the car to pick up the curtains and saw that the old owner's cheeks were stuffed like a squirrel.

Oh, I forgot to give the old owner meat sauce...

"Master?" Gao Chao quickly diverted his attention: "I was still recognized."

"Yes." Gao Gong nodded, patted his cheeks with both hands, swallowed the food in his mouth hard, and restored the dignity of the prime minister, saying, "Then there is no need to hide his head and tail."

"Yes." Gao Chao understood, so he got out of the car and said to the knight, "It's my master. I don't know what the hell is expensive?"

"My old master heard that Xin Zheng Gong retired gloriously, so he came to see him off." The visitor replied loudly: "My old master has already prepared a banquet at the Qiantou Vacuum Monastery. Please be sure to enjoy the scenery."

"Your old master is noble?" Gao Chao asked in a deep voice.

"Subject Zhao!" the visitor replied.
