Chapter 5 Your Majesty, I would rather kill three thousand by mistake than let one go!
As soon as they entered the palace and saw Emperor Tianqi, Zhang Gui and his father looked melancholy when they saw Tianqi.
"Your Majesty!"
Zhang Gui and Zhang Guoji saluted.
"Excuse me! Go in and have a look, it's worth a look, I'm a prince, I have a hard life, I haven't spoken yet, so I have to."
Tian Qi choked back the word "died" and said sadly, "This is my eldest son!"
As he said that, Tian Qi looked up at the sky, and smiled wryly: "What wrong did I do? God wants to punish me, and I must be punished. Why bother to harm my eldest son."
"Yes! Your Majesty, don't worry too much, the emperor's heir will be safe and sound."
Zhang Gui comforted, and entered the bedroom of Kunning Palace together with Zhang Guoji.
Seeing that the little prince's lips were dry from the fever, Zhang Gui couldn't help asking in his heart: "I don't know if this little prince can survive the fever this time, but according to historical records, he will still die young. However, I can. Give him a try of penicillin, but he is a prince after all, if he tries something good or bad, he will be killed, because I haven’t even done a single clinical trial on my penicillin.”
Zhang Gui didn't mention the matter of penicillin, but went outside with Zhang Guoji after seeing the little prince.
Tian Qi saw the two coming out, only smiled slightly, and then asked the elder Zhang Guoji: "Old Taishan, you are an old man with a long history. Looking at it, you think, can the emperor's heir be saved?"
Zhang Guoji shook his head: "It's too small, it's hard to tell."
Tian Qi restrained his smile.
Zhang Gui pulls Zhang Guoji's clothes, which means to let him say a few words that make Tianqi sound comfortable.
At this time, Wang An hurried over.
Tian Qi quickly looked at Wang An: "How can I say, have you found any famous doctors among the people?"
Wang An said: "Go back to the emperor, no."
Tianqi asked again: "Then let's order to post the emperor's list all over the world to find famous folk pediatric doctors?"
Wang An replied: "The Six Branches refuted this decree, saying that the imperial physician in the palace is the best doctor in the world, and there is no need for Your Majesty to disturb the world because of this matter."
Tian Qi suddenly slapped the pillar heavily with his palm: "They are trying to kill my eldest son!"
Wang An hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground: "Your Majesty, please calm down! All six Langbing Divisions have been dispatched. During the incident, Zhu Tongmeng was outside the gate of Guiji. He asked His Majesty to see him, saying that there is a good way to save His Majesty's heir."
Wang An glanced at Zhang Gui after speaking.
Zhang Gui didn't expect Wang An to look at him, and felt a little bad in his heart.
"Xuan!"
Here, Tian Qi replied immediately because he was anxious not to let his first child die, let alone the eldest son.
After a while, Zhu Tongmeng came to Tianqi and saluted Tianqi.
Tianqi asked him when he saw him: "What good way do you have to save my emperor's heir?"
"Your Majesty, the minister's recipe is, please forgive Zhang Gui, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Tongmeng said suddenly.
After hearing this, Zhang Gui felt like Jiao Lei was ringing in his ears. He looked at Zhu Tongmeng in surprise, and said in his heart, "I don't know you before. Why do you force the emperor to kill me?"
Wang An is secretly laughing here.
Zhang Gui also noticed Wang An's expression, and soon understood that it was because he presented a new-style carriage to the emperor in order to avoid being punished by foot restraint, which aroused the hatred of others.
Damn it, there really isn't a single good thing in the court! I just want to be lifted from the grounds, did you provoke you? Put me to death!
Zhang Gui is not too scared, he is actually mentally prepared that he will be targeted by some forces.
After all, Ming Dynasty was a centralized society. If you want to complete bottom-up reforms and avoid the tragedy of your own Zhang family and even the tragedy of the whole era, you cannot do without the participation of the emperor.
It's just that Zhang Gui didn't expect some people in the court to target him so quickly.
You must know that he still has a lot of big killers that he hasn't brought out yet.
"this…"
Zhang Guoji was really frightened. He didn't expect that the good recipe offered by this civil servant to save the prince was to ask His Majesty to kill his son.
But my Zhang family only has such a single pass.
Tianqi seemed to have insight into everything at this time, and asked in a cold voice: "How do you say this?"
"Your Majesty, the premature birth of the prince is due to the fact that the emperor is close to the sycophant, and like his relatives Zhang Gui, he is not doing justice, flattering the emperor, so that the middle palace is implicated by him, so the punishment from heaven should be on the emperor's heir. If your majesty does not punish Zhang If you are expensive, or if you still favor him, you may bring disaster to other heirs in the future."
Zhu Tongmeng said at this point: "Please learn from your Majesty!"
"Curse?"
Tian Qi glanced at Zhang Gui, but he didn't want to believe what Zhu Tongmeng said, because he didn't feel that he favored Zhang Gui too much, but he only affirmed the carriage presented by Zhang Gui, and didn't allow Zhang Gui to do anything. Chao Gang thing.
But this era is not the later generations. People are afraid of the sky, even the emperor is no exception.
Plus, the emperor's heir is indeed premature and is still in critical condition.
Tian Qi, as his father, cares about chaos, so he hesitates.
Zhu Tongmeng obviously grasped Tianqi's mentality, and took the opportunity to continue admonishing: "Please punish Zhang Gui, Your Majesty! Punish him with respect!"
"this…"
Tianqi shook his head: "It's still a bit far-fetched. Zhang Gui didn't do anything too extreme. It stands to reason that God's punishment will not appear because of him."
Zhu Tongmeng didn't expect Tianqi to be so easy to fool, so he could only continue to add fuel and jealousy: "Your Majesty! I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than kill one in vain! Is it important for him to be noble, or for me to be the heir of the Ming Dynasty?! See, killing him, Zhang Gui, is worth a try if it can avoid future danger to the country!"
Wang An followed by saying: "My lord, what he said seems reasonable."
"What's the point?! It's just a lie!"
At this time, Zhang Gui replied bluntly, and looked at Zhu Tongmeng and said, "Your son is speechless and confused. A dignified scholar, in order to frame his relatives, pulls out such absurd rumors, is he worthy of being a scholar?!"
"Zhang Gui, it is an indisputable fact that you flattered your father and caused such a punishment from heaven, not to mention the fact that the emperor's heir was born prematurely and is about to die prematurely!"
Zhu Tongmeng replied excitedly.
"Who told you that the emperor's heir is about to die early?! I think you wish the emperor's heir would die early?!"
Zhang Gui replied loudly.
Zhu Tongmeng was caught by the question on the spot, and subconsciously almost said: "That's right! That's what I think."
But he still resolutely suppressed the words.
At this time, Empress Zhang Yan's palace maid hurriedly came to the palace gate and shouted: "It's not good! The prince's forehead is getting hotter!"
"Hurry up to physically cool down!"
Zhang Gui replied subconsciously.
Tian Qi hurriedly asked: "What is physical cooling?"
Zhang Gui replied: "It is to make an ice hat, put ice in the hat, and put it on the emperor's head, so as to prevent cerebral edema caused by high fever!"
What Zhang Gui said seemed reasonable to Tian Qi, not to mention that the situation was urgent, so he didn't hesitate, and ordered: "Do as he said!"
As Zhang Gui said, he turned to Tianqi and said, "Your Majesty, I also have a good recipe to save the emperor's heir. Please allow me to try it!"
