Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 670 Taikang’s Visit

There is a saying in the ancients that goes like this: life and death have their own destiny, wealth and honor depend on heaven.

Thinking of Emperor Zhengde's illness, Su Mu felt his head was as big as a bucket, and he just wanted to have a good talk with Zhu Houzhao, reminding this old friend to pay attention to his body, and to maintain a stable mind during the day, and not to be overjoyed or sad.

But in the past two years with him, no one knows the emperor's temperament better than Su Mu. Sometimes, in his opinion, this guy is a bastard.

Moreover, in the feudal era, the emperor represented the legal system of the country.The physical condition of the emperor is also the top secret of the state.

Back then, when Emperor Hongzhi was seriously ill, the palace even blocked all news and isolated the inside and outside, in order to fear that someone with a heart would take advantage of this to stir up trouble outside and cause uncontrollable changes.

If you rashly say to Emperor Zhengde: "Your Majesty, you have a serious illness that cannot be cured yet. Maybe you have more than ten years to live, and maybe you will die tomorrow. So, from now on, please stay here honestly. In the palace, don't worry about anything, just make a display!"

Emperor Zhengde might have laughed, and even punched Su Mu a few times.But in the eyes of others, Su Mu's words are vicious curses, and the consequences are very serious.

So, he wouldn't do such a stupid thing!

So, talk to the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital?

No, no, Su Mu shook his head for a moment.

As an imperial physician, it can be said that Emperor Zhengde grew up taking their medicine.Although the imperial hospital's prescriptions are unreliable, it just shows that the imperial physicians know how to be an official and how to kill all troubles in the cradle.When treating the emperor and the royal family, the first thing that comes to mind is not how to cure the disease, but how not to put the responsibility on oneself.

This situation is a bit like how hospitals in later generations handle disputes between doctors and patients. At least, in terms of legal principles, people cannot find any loopholes.

In fact, the medical skills of imperial doctors are still very good, otherwise they would not be selected as medical officials by the imperial court.Su Mu didn't believe that they couldn't see the hidden dangers of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and infertility in Emperor Zhengde, but they didn't dare to say it because of political reasons.

Once the news is revealed, it may cause a huge riot.

There is no cure for the disease on the emperor's body, and he may die at any time when he is old.That's all, the crux of the problem is that Emperor Zhengde has no fertility yet.

At that time, the throne will be vacant. In this world, as long as your surname is Zhu, it is possible to win that dazzling crown.

Starting from Jing Nan, the clan of the Ming Dynasty caused many disturbances for the throne.First, there was the battle between Chengzu and Emperor Jianwen, and then Emperor Renzong put down Zhu Gaoxun's rebellion; after that, there was the replacement of the throne between Yingzong and Daizong.During the reign of Zhengde, the Huanhao Rebellion occurred even more.

Lao Zhu's family was born from the grassroots, and he believed in the principle that "the son of heaven, the one with the strongest soldiers and horses will do it for him".

The clan of the Ming Dynasty never lacked careerists.

Now, because of the rebellion during the Spring Festival in the 16th year of Hongzhi, King Ning was closely monitored because of his involvement in it.If there is no accident, the Huanhao Rebellion in real history is impossible to happen again, and there is no soil for it to happen.

Of course, it is impossible for the great virtuous Wang Yangming to become famous all over the world because he put down the rebellion of King Ning.

Su Mu, a butterfly who traveled to the Ming Dynasty, has already brought about great changes in this time and space.

Just because Emperor Zhengde's physical condition was so critical, Su Mu naturally would not go to the imperial hospital to discuss the emperor's dragon body with the imperial physicians.

He thought about it, and it seems that he can only observe quietly, to see if he can find some famous doctors from the people in the future, and see if he can help recuperate Zhengde's body.

Besides, time was running out and he was going to leave Beijing soon, so Su Mu couldn't help but think about it.

The family's luggage has been prepared, and the court's writing has also come down, including entourage and support have been dispatched in place.

On the second day, although he was reluctant to give up, Su Mu still set off normally to go to Shaanxi to inspect the local government to study politics and preside over the next year's rural examination.

The two wives and Xiaodie will naturally come to see them off. They have only been married for four or five months, but this time they will be separated for nearly a year.Although Hu Ying was careless on weekdays, and Mrs. Wu also encouraged Su Mu to go out of Beijing, but when they arrived at the pier, the eye circles of the two women were all red.

As for Xiaodie, tears flowed even more, and she kept telling Zhao Hulu who was accompanying her to take care of her master, and it would be winter soon, but she couldn't make her master catch a cold.In addition, the water and soil in Xi'an are hard, and the master is also particular about food and clothing. When it comes to food and clothing, he can't be too frugal, it's just nagging.

Su Mu also felt uncomfortable, took the hands of the three girls, and comforted them for a long time, but before they calmed down, they heard a commotion over there.A group of officials came over and took a closer look. It was colleagues from the Imperial Academy and the same year of the palace examination who came to see him off.

Unlike the sad and worried expressions of the three girls, they were full of envy.

At the age of 100, Su Mu was able to patrol the school administration of a province, presided over the local rural examination, and became a master. In the more than 28-year history of the country, he was the only one.In contrast, although Kang Hai, the second place in this year's palace examination, also presides over the Jiangxi rural examination, he is already [-] years old and can't compare with Su Mu.

From this point of view, Su Mu's glory is simply enviable.

After drinking a glass of wine with his classmates and colleagues, they said goodbye to each other, Su Mu waved goodbye to everyone, and boarded the official ship.

With a sound of "huh", the big sail was raised under the sun, startling a flock of flying birds gathered on the pier.

It was late autumn at this moment, and the weather was still a little hot, and the water surface that had been in the sun for a long time was rippling with heat.Amidst the cries of flying birds, the big ship suddenly shrugged and went out, drawing a deep waterway on the Grand Canal.

There are white foams rising, and the cabbage leaves floating on it, and the dirty sundries exude a strange smell.

The three women on the pier cried at the same time, "My lord, my lord!"

They ran forward one after another, but were hugged tightly by the maids.

Thinking that this separation lasted nearly a year, Su Mu's nose suddenly became sour, and he almost shed tears.

Not wanting his subordinates to see his gaffe, he wiped his face and was about to enter the cabin, when suddenly, a beautiful big boat approached.

The terminal of the Grand Canal in Beijing is the busiest inland port in the world, and [-]% of the food and clothing of the entire capital needs to be imported through this golden waterway.Therefore, there are not five hundred but three hundred boats that come and go here every day, which seems very crowded.

For the sake of order, Shuntian Mansion even sent special yamen servants to maintain order on the river in small boats, which looked a bit like the marine police of later generations.

Even so, it was still very chaotic during the peak period of cargo throughput at the terminal.

At this moment, there was only a narrow channel left on the river, and as soon as the big boat approached, it almost collided with Su Mu's official boat.

Fortunately, the boatman was good at maneuvering the boat, and the bow of the boat turned suddenly, barely avoiding it.

However, because the movement was too loud, the inertia made everyone on the boat lean at the same time.

Su Mu also grabbed the side of the ship violently so as not to fall on the deck.

How could the soldiers on the boat be willing to obey, and couldn't help cursing loudly: "Where did the daredevil come from, dare to ram the official boat, and offend the uncle, carefully arrest you and see the official?"

Zhao Hulu was also so shocked that his head was covered with sweat, his heart was extremely angry, and he kept yelling: "Fuck you two, catch them all!"

At this moment, a blue face appeared behind the side of the ship on the side of Su Mu in the beautiful big ship opposite.A well-dressed scholar stood behind and looked over coldly.

But this person was Gu Run Gu Yiyu, Princess Taikang's son-in-law whom he hadn't seen for half a year.

Naturally, this man Su Mu has not seen him for a long time, it has been half a year since he met him before the exam, and he doesn't know how this guy is doing.

However, judging from the last time Yibing beat and scolded him, it must be very difficult for the son-in-law to live in the mansion.

Su Mu's heart trembled, he didn't expect to meet the boat of the son-in-law's mansion here, and judging from their situation, it seemed that they were coming for him.

I don't know if it's purely because Concubine Gu is looking for trouble for him, or if it's for other reasons.

However, after thinking about it, Gu Run is just a powerless son-in-law.And now he is the champion of Xinke, editor of the Hanlin Academy, close minister of the emperor, and a prime minister cultivated by the court.Compared with Concubine Gu, it is like the difference between fireflies and Haoyue.What power does Gu Run have to pk with himself?

Then, the biggest possibility is that Princess Taikang wants to meet me.

Did she come to see me, Su Mu, for something?

Su Mu couldn't figure it out, if it was purely because of commercial matters, the Development Bank was already on the right track.The salt tickets issued by the bank have become a money ticket equivalent to silver. Even if they do nothing, the money and interest alone are enough to make a lot of money for Emperor Zhengde, Princess Taikang and his Sumu.

Moreover, since entering the Hanlin Academy, Su Mu has gradually faded out of the specific affairs of the development bank, and has become an ordinary shareholder with peace of mind.

If not this, then what would it be?

Su Mu cupped his hands towards Gu Run, smiled and said loudly: "It turned out to be Brother Yiyu. It has been half a year since we left the restaurant last time. Su Mu missed him very much. When he left Beijing, Brother Yiyu actually came to see him off. Su Mu is quite surprised!"

Last time at the restaurant, Gu Run was beaten up in front of everyone, losing all face.At this moment, hearing Su Mu's old story brought up again, his complexion is ugly.

He raised his head again and glanced at Su Mu who was wearing the official uniform of the seventh rank of the big red Zhengzheng.

I saw Su Mu's long body standing on the bow of the boat, with his sleeves fluttering in the turbulent river wind, and a confident smile on his face, showing an indescribable calmness.

At this time, Su Mu is really famous all over the world, and his future is boundless. It is no longer comparable to the ordinary patrol inspection in Cangzhou.

Suddenly there was a strong jealousy in his heart, Gu Run couldn't help but sneered and said loudly: "Su Mu, I really didn't expect you to be the champion of this period's palace examination. Once you enter the Dragon Gate, you will be worth a hundred times! However, Xiaosheng still has a little I don't understand, should I call you Mei Inspector or Master Su?"
