Just after noon, Xie Qian hurriedly went from Yuan Pavilion to Ganqing Palace.

Although Emperor Hongzhi had not recovered from his health, he had moved to the Ganqing Palace and stayed here to take care of Empress Zhang, while the prince was sent back to Xiefang Palace.

In addition to strengthening vigilance against Xiefang Palace to prevent anyone from being unfavorable to the prince, everything in the Eastern Palace is the same. The prince still needs to attend classes today. This is also what Emperor Hongzhi specifically asked after waking up. Even when he was dying, he hoped that his son was learning and making progress.

But this does not mean that Zhu Youzhang is a strict father. At most, he can only be regarded as a kind father. It can be said that Zhu Houzhao will do whatever he wants in the future because he is not a good discipline and his son is not a godfather's fault. This statement makes sense in any era. The reason why Zhu Youzhang became a good emperor who is strict with himself was because he grew up in a crisis-ridden environment since childhood, and he did not give his son this sense of crisis.

Xie Qian went outside the emperor's bedroom of the Ganqing Palace, and Xiao Jingjing stood respectfully at the door.

Even if Emperor Hongzhi was not really dying, Xiao Jing still took over the Silijian and became the most powerful eunuch in the palace. He could also be called "internal minister".

"The elder of the Pavilion is waiting outside first, and I will go in and spread it."

Although Xiao Jing was very powerful, he was always humble and polite in front of foreign ministers, which was also due to his character. He always respected those famous ministers, including Xie Qian, a cabinet minister whom Emperor Hongzhi trusted very much.

Xie Qian was alone outside the bedroom and thought to himself: "Is this just an exercise for the throne change? In the end, it will end with everything safe and sound, and everything in the palace and the court will be the same?"

"Why did Your Majesty summon me in particular? In terms of fame and status in the court, I am still inferior to Young Fu and Binzhi, and I can't understand this."

Thinking about the matter in his mind, Xie Qian looked a little dazed, and suddenly heard a mess of footsteps. He turned around and saw a group of people coming over hurriedly. Among them, there was the one carrying the medicine box, not Dr. Han who was vigilant yesterday.

Xie Qian was quite familiar with the people in the Imperial Hospital, with many strange faces. What was strange was that there were Taoist priests and monks behind him, which surprised Xie Qian.

Emperor Hongzhi always believed in Taoism, but after Li Guang's evil words confusing the public and disturbing the court, Emperor Hongzhi's belief in Taoism decreased a lot. However, as his health was worse than before, he became keen on Taoist elixirs and health preservation again. He had heard that the queen's pregnancy was obtained by Taoist priests' "practice". The specific situation was only rumored in the palace garden, so Xie Qian could not investigate in detail.

The imperial physician, Taoist priest and the foreign monk arrived and stayed in front of the Ganqing palace. Except for the imperial physician coming to see the ceremony, the Taoist priest and the foreign monk ignored Xie Qian.

Xie Qian felt something was wrong.

As a Confucian scholar, he always believed in the idea of ​​"the son did not speak strange powers and confusing gods", and always scoffed at the sayings of ghosts and gods. He once advised the emperor to stay away from the Taoist masters and real people, but it had little effect. Whether the emperor should believe or believe, Xie Qian had no choice but to let these Taoist priests and monks do whatever they wanted in the palace.

After Xiao Jing came out, he saw the Imperial Doctor and his group of people. He did not summon Xie Qian into the house as soon as possible. Instead, he went over and said something to the Imperial Doctor and asked them to go to the palace to meet him first.

The person went in, but Xie Qian stopped doing it.

The emperor was in a critical condition and summoned the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. As a result, the man arrived, but the Taoist priests and monks later went in to see the emperor first. What was this like? He quickly asked Xiao Jing what was going on.

Xiao Jing looked embarrassed: "Master Ge may not know that this Zhenren Chen and the National Master of Xifan are masters believed in by His Majesty. Yesterday they opened an altar in the palace to make the way, which made His Majesty turn into danger. After Master Ge comes in and sees His Majesty, don't question this matter. Remember!"

Xie Qianxin was resentful.

Several witchcraft warlocks who were witching the crowd actually made a fuss here, saying that they saved the emperor's life. Xie Qian didn't believe that the method of opening the altar could have the effect of curing diseases and saving people.

But Xie Qian was very cognitive. The emperor had been obsessed with Taoism for a day or two. It was useless to say more. Instead, it would be better to wait until the emperor saw these demons and then go in to see them. He would not be upset. He would not make Xiao Jing embarrassed. Some words were said and said, and he could distinguish the importance of them.

While waiting outside, Xiao Jing roughly explained to Xie Qian the origin of Taoist priests and monks: "... Chen Zhenren, whose name is Chen Yingrong, has achieved the Taoist immortal. There are countless disciples around the capital. As for the Xifan national master Nabu Jiangan, he has the ability to be knowledgeable about ghosts and gods. Your Majesty is planning to give him a seal and allow him to walk inside and outside the Ganqing Palace. This matter has been passed on to Hanyuan this morning..."

Xie Qian said angrily: "What true man of enlightenment? I think he is just a wise man in the world. I never thought that this world is not as old as there are demons who have smuggled into the palace. If my ministers do not advise you, wouldn't they let these people foul the palace?"

Since ancient times, there have been no permanent residence in the palace except the emperor. Now Emperor Hongzhi is breaking this tradition that has been left for thousands of years and leaving rumors to confuse the public in the palace.

Xie Qian couldn't understand whether the emperor believed in Taoism or Buddhism, or was he seeking medical treatment in a hurry?

Chen Yingrong and Nabu Jiangan are Taoism and Buddhism. Although Xie Qian couldn't tell how much the relationship between the Master of Xifan and Buddhism, roughly speaking, the emperor should only trust one if he wants to trust. Now he invites two people to the palace at the same time. I want to try which side of "high magic power" and make a choice?

"Master Xie, at this critical moment, don't be stubborn." Xiao Jing was a little anxious.

Xie Qian clenched his fists and sighed hatefully. He really didn't want to pay attention to such things in the past, but now the emperor's fate is almost gone. The throne is about to change, which is exactly the prophecy that "the country will be destroyed and there will be monsters." However, he did not dare to openly persuade the emperor with such words, because he was not so stupid that he cursed the fate of the Ming Dynasty. No matter how you look at it, the Ming Dynasty is now peaceful inside and outside, and it is not yet time for a dynasty to change.

...

...

Zhu Youzhang met the imperial physician, real person and foreign monk in the Ganqing Palace. About half an hour passed, and a group of people walked out.

Xie Qian received the order and allowed him to come in. He was almost sixty years old and didn't rest all night and just closed his eyes in the morning. At this time, Xie Qian was extremely energetic, but he was still waiting outside for half an hour. At this time, he was full of complaints, but he still felt a little comforted when he could see the emperor safely.

"His Majesty."

The scene was basically the same as when we met last night. The emperor was lying on the dragon couch behind the gauze tent. The location was changed from Kunning Palace to Ganqing Palace. Next to him were Empress Zhang, eunuchs, palace women and others around him.

Zhu Youzing heard Xie Qian's voice, and said with a little surprise in his tone, "Mr. Xie is here?"

Xie Qian was basically weak when he heard this, which shows that Zhu Youting's illness was still very serious. He immediately bowed: "It's an old minister."

"That's good. I walked in front of the gate of hell yesterday. Fortunately, Zhenren Zhang and the national teacher did it. My illness has improved, but I still need to continue to do it in the palace for 49 days before the condition can be cured..."

Zhu Youzhang has not shyled this time and has attributed all the credit for his recovery to Zhang Yingrong and the monk Na Bu Jiangan, which made Xie Qian feel angry... If the old minister hadn't diagnosed your critical illness yesterday and the queen decided to rescue him, could you be safe? You would choke to death on the spot!

We old ministers have been in the palace. You don’t feel grateful. Now we are actually grateful to the warlocks of the martial arts world. We don’t mention a word to us. This really makes the old minister feel heartbroken! (To be continued.)
