The sudden closure of all the inner and outer gates of the capital caused great panic. The people of the capital have always been well-informed people. When they saw this situation, they knew that something big was going on in the court. Now, what big things can happen to the Qing Dynasty? Many people immediately realized that Lord Zhenwu was in danger, otherwise the court would not close all the city gates.
All kinds of speculations spread like wildfire immediately, and there was a lot of panic inside and outside the capital. It was not all worried about Zhenwu. Who didn't know that the succession of imperial power has always been full of disasters. The current situation was really worrying. I rushed to the city gate or There was an endless stream of people in nearby teahouses seeking information, and many people also flocked to Taoist temples to burn incense and pray for Zhenwu.
The large and small officials waiting in front of the Changchun Garden were greatly disturbed after hearing the news that the gates inside and outside the capital had been closed. It seemed that Zhenwu's condition had indeed reached the most dangerous moment, and everyone was immediately nervous. Get up and pay attention to the movement of the gate of Changchun Garden at any time.
The most nervous thing is the imperial doctors at the imperial hospital. If Zhenwu dies, they will be the first to suffer misfortune. Kangxi will definitely take out his anger on them when he is in grief. People's hearts are tightly tightened, and they really have no confidence at all for this kind of epidemic that they have never heard of.
Sun Zhiding, the envoy of Taiyuan Hospital, was also confused. There were only nine people in Changchun Garden, including Lian Zhenwu, who contracted this strange disease. Five of them have died now, except for one eunuch who survived for five days and was slightly ill. In addition to getting better, the other three were about to reach their five-day deadline. He was not even sure whether Zhenwu could survive it.
After suffering for a whole day, the bad news came at dusk. Two people who fell ill on the same day as Zhenwu died. Sun Zhiding and all the imperial doctors were immediately depressed to the extreme. The prescriptions used by these two people were different from those used by Zhenwu. They are all the same. It seems that this prescription is ineffective. Can Zhenwu survive?
The atmosphere in the entire Changchun Garden suddenly became heavy and almost solidified. Everyone knew that Zhenwu was probably going to be in trouble this time!
The sky slowly darkened, and the lights in the garden lit up one after another. No one among the officials outside the garden wanted to disperse, and everyone was waiting quietly.
Dan Ning lived in the side hall. Kangxi, who had been silent all day, looked at the brightly lit rear hall, pondered for a long time, and then said: "Xuan Sun Zhiding has an audience."
When Li Dequan heard this, he quickly responded, then turned around and went out to send the eunuch to deliver the order. Sun Zhiding, who was guarding Zhenwu's bed, listened to Kangxi's summons and hurriedly gave a few instructions. Then he trotted into the side hall and asked for an audience. Afterwards, Kangxi asked directly: "How is the emperor's pulse? How much hope is there?"
When Sun Zhiding heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Go back to the Supreme Emperor. Your Majesty's pulse is very weak, like a gossamer running through threads, and your humble ministers are incompetent."
Kangxi sighed softly, and then said after a while: "Can it stimulate awakening?"
How does this work? Sun Zhiding couldn't help being frightened. He was afraid that he would die if he woke up and turned around. He kowtowed hurriedly and said: "I am incompetent."
Kangxi himself was also well versed in medical science, but he just asked with a sense of luck. Among the nine people who contracted the disease, seven of them died silently in a coma. If Zhenwu was like them, He died in a coma, which was really unacceptable to him. In the past two days, Zhenwu woke up twice, both of which were concerned about government affairs, but he did not see the prince. Although he had known that he had left a succession edict, Kangxi was still vaguely aware of it. OK, I hope all the princes can see him before he dies.
Seeing that Sun Zhiding refused without hesitation, Kangxi also gave up this idea, pondered slightly, and then said: "Kneel down."
When Sun Zhiding left, Li Dequan hurriedly bowed and said: "The Emperor has not had dinner yet, let them pass it on."
"We will skip dinner and let them serve some Yi Kehua pastry." Kangxi said and then ordered: "Bring Hongchun and Hongming over."
"Cha." Li Dequan felt relieved and hurriedly bowed out of the door. As soon as he went out, he saw a flash of white light, which illuminated the entire courtyard as if it were daytime. Then there was a "rumbling" sound of thunder, which seemed to be rolling over his head. It was normal, but his face turned pale with shock. He was fine during the day, but why was there suddenly thunder and lightning? Before he could recover, another flash of lightning lit up, and there was a loud "click" sound, as if the sky was torn apart, followed by another rumbling thunder mixed with heavy rain pouring down.
The officials waiting outside Changchun Garden were also frightened by the sudden and terrifying thunder and lightning. They all looked for shelter from the rain. They all had secret thoughts in their hearts - could it be that Long Yu was a guest?
At this moment, there were thunder and lightning and heavy rain, which was really unlucky. Everyone in Changchun Garden, inside and outside, all looked in the direction of Dan Ningju, and an ominous premonition arose in their hearts.
Zhenwu¡¯s bedroom.
After the thunder, Zhenwu seemed to have been awakened by the thunder, and he opened his eyes.He couldn't help being pleasantly surprised, and said happily: "Your Majesty is awake?" The voice was so loud that even he was startled. Bao Fuquan, who was busy instructing him to close the window and put on the lampshade, ran over when he heard this. Seeing that Zhenwu had indeed opened his eyes, he couldn't help but blush.
When Sun Zhiding saw this situation, he hurriedly whispered: "Report to the Supreme Emperor immediately." After saying that, he knelt down and took Zhenwu's pulse quietly.
Old Fourteen is awake? Kangxi was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately frowned. Could it be that he was having a flashback, right? He hurriedly ordered: "Quick, carry me over." After a slight pause, he ordered: "Take Hongchun and the others with them, and a group of concubines, Lao Ba and Lao San are waiting outside the dormitory.
Hurrying to the door of the dormitory, Kangxi got off the ground. Sun Zhiding, who was waiting at the door, hurriedly greeted him. Just as he was about to salute, Kangxi said hastily: "Excuse me, how is the emperor?"
"Back to the Emperor, the Emperor's pulse condition is getting stronger." Sun Zhiding did not dare to speak directly to Kangxi, but still knelt down and said, "I have something to say."
"Say." Kangxi interrupted immediately.
"yes.
Sun Zhiding pondered for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, the time difference between the onset of the Emperor's disease and the onset of the first two patients is less than an hour. Now the Emperor Zhihao woke up an hour apart. It is difficult for me to say for sure. I just took the Emperor's pulse. What's the pulse condition?" There are some signs of getting stronger, and Wei Chen boldly speculates that it is more beneficial for the emperor to be awake, and he sincerely prays to extend the time for the emperor to be awake as much as possible. However, it is best not to let the emperor consume his mind.
In addition, the first two patients died within five days. Wei Chen secretly thought that it was because the medicine was not suitable for the symptoms. However, the only patient who survived five days and gradually improved his condition continued to use this prescription. Wei Chen did not dare to take it on his own, and sincerely prayed The Supreme Emperor made a decision. "
Kangxi frowned when he heard this. Although Sun Zhiding said that he did not dare to say for sure, since he mentioned the prescription, it seemed that he had some confidence in Lao Si4. As for whether to change the prescription, they had already made a decision, but they were afraid of taking responsibility. Forget it, he immediately said: "There is no need to change the prescription. The emperor has been in coma for too long, so we cannot delay taking the medicine." After saying that, he continued: "Does the emperor know how long he has been in coma?"
"I don't know, the emperor hasn't taken any supplements for a few days. After he woke up, he started to digest mountain ginseng." Sun Zhiding hurriedly replied.
Kangxi nodded and sat down in front of Zhenwu's bed with the support of two eunuchs. Seeing that although Zhenwu was weak, his eyes were clear. He couldn't help but smile and said: "You were unconscious for two days and one night this time. But The general, Emperor Ama, was frightened, but thanks to the blessings of our ancestors, he finally woke up."
"Has the fifth day passed?" Zhenwu asked vaguely with a ginseng in his mouth, an undisguised smile on his face.
"Finally, I got over it." Kangxi smiled and nodded, "You haven't eaten for a few days and are weak. Don't talk much. I'll ask Hongchun and Hongshi to come in and pay their respects to you."
After hearing this, Li Dequan hurriedly waved out. Hongchun, Hongming, Hongying, and Hongzao were waiting at the door. They hurriedly came over and knelt down. The twelve-year-old eldest son Hongchun took the lead and said: "My son, Hongchun, please wait. Respectfully greeting the Emperor, Your Majesty." After saying this, his voice was choked with sobs. Although Hongchun and the others were young, they all knew clearly in their hearts that Huang Ama's condition was critical. They all kowtowed with red eyes to prevent themselves from crying.
Zhenwu turned his head, glanced at the four of them, and smiled a little apologetically. He usually disciplined the four princes very strictly, and rarely looked friendly. He only greeted and checked homework in a dry manner. This was the Qing Dynasty. There was nothing he could do about the ancestral precepts of the royal family.
When Zhenwu opened his mouth, Kangxi hurriedly said: "Without courtesy, come to Grandpa Huang." After the four of them stood up, he continued: "Your Majesty, you can't talk too much. Grandpa Huang is responsible for checking your homework today. "As he said that, he asked the four people one by one about their study status in the past few days, and asked each person to recite a short paragraph before sending the four people away.
Zhenwu has been listening quietly, but he is very excited. After five days, he has passed the most dangerous point, and he should be able to gradually get better. After Sun Zhiding took his pulse, he said: "I want to have a meal."
Sun Zhiding was overjoyed when he heard this, and Kangxi was also overjoyed. He said with a smile: "I will ask them to pass the meal immediately, and ask the queen to wait on you to eat. When he saw Zhenwu's jaw, he hurriedly signaled to Li Dequan to help him out, and he came out the door. , Sun Zhiding stepped forward and knelt down and said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty's pulse condition is indeed getting better. I just took the pulse, which is better than before. This is a situation that has never happened to the previous patients. In view of this situation, is it possible?" Halve the dose or suspend the medication? "
"My ancestors bless you." Kangxi muttered softly and then said, "You are the imperial physician, and it is up to you to decide."
Zhenwu woke up, and the news that he was going to deliver the meal excited all the royal family members and princes of the Eight Banners who were waiting in the corridor outside the door, especially Lao Ba, Lao Thirteen and others.Zhenwu Zhongyong's brothers all breathed a sigh of relief.
After drinking half a bowl of rice porridge and then half a bowl of soup medicine under Wanyan Hairuo's wait, Zhenwu stayed awake for more than half an hour before falling asleep.
All the royal family members and princes of the Eight Banners were waiting quietly in the side hall, listening to the imperial doctor report Zhenwu's pulse every half an hour. At dawn, when they heard that Zhenwu was still safe, everyone couldn't help but get excited. , now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, Zhenwu has passed the fifth day safely.
The spring rain that had been falling all night had stopped and the clouds had dispersed. The air after the rain was especially fresh. When the first ray of sunlight hit the window paper of the dormitory, Zhenwu opened his eyes again and glanced at the sleeping room. Hai Ruo beside him, he couldn't help but smile. This scene was really familiar, so similar to when he first came here.
"The Emperor is awake!"
"The Emperor is awake!"
The whole Changchun Garden was filled with long and joyful shouts one after another.
