  Chapter 1001 The emperor has a disease

  The ambergris in the hall rises up, condenses but does not disperse, filling the hall with fragrance.

  The emperor was lying on the couch with his eyes closed, and Concubine Yang was kneading his head for the emperor, her movements were gentle and gentle, making the emperor very comfortable.

  Recently, all the complicated things have caused the emperor to have a headache, and his shortness of breath followed suit.

The emperor's qi disease is a top secret of the court, and only a few old priests in the Shangyao Bureau know about it, and treat the emperor in private, but this qi disease seems to be a family hereditary disease of the Li family, and the imperial doctors can only prescribe medicine Conditioning, difficult to eradicate.

   And Qin Lang once saw this qi disease for the emperor. According to his judgment, the emperor's qi disease should be a cardiovascular disease. Li Yuan suffered from wind disease, and later passed away because of the wind disease. In Li Yuan's condition, Qin Lang thought it was a stroke caused by a cerebral thrombosis, which was also in line with the imperial doctors' diagnosis of Li Yuan's wind disease.

  Li Shimin also suffered from wind disease, but the more serious one was qi disease. Both wind disease and qi disease were present, and Empress Changsun also had qi disease.

  The first onset of the emperor's gas disease was in the sixth year of Zhenguan.

   According to the diagnosis of the old imperial doctors, Li Shimin's Qi disease is actually a kind of wind disease, which is an early symptom. After the onset of Qi disease in the sixth year of Emperor Zhenguan, the specific symptom was dyspnea when he got hot or strenuous exercise.

After six years in Zhenguan, the emperor went to the Jiucheng Palace in Qizhou, west of Beijing, every summer to escape the summer heat, which was the Renshou Palace in the Sui Dynasty. At that time, a minister once advised him that the expansion of the Jiucheng Palace cost a lot, and Jiucheng often visited it. Li Shimin said to the minister very sincerely, "I am not the kind of person who likes to play, but I have a shortness of breath, and when I am hot, I will stop playing."

Qin Lang was also ordered to find medicines for Li Shimin to cure Qi diseases, and did some research on Li Shimin's illnesses. He believed that Li Shimin suffered from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. It is obvious that this is a family genetic disease of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Li Shimin also has the obvious three highs, high blood pressure, high blood fat and high blood sugar. He has three highs at a young age. This is related to Li Shimin's eating habits, and also to some of the environments he used to fight in the military. Although Li Shimin was not good in the past If you drink alcohol, you can eat meat and cheese, but eat heavy salt.

  From the marshal who led the army to the emperor who lived in the deep palace, the amount of exercise has also decreased, and the diet is still greasy, salty, and meaty.

  Three highs are common in later generations, but in this era, they are still relatively serious health killers. Imperial physicians collectively refer to these diseases as Qi diseases, and if they are more serious, they are called wind diseases.

   Li Yuan passed away due to a wind attack, and eventually he was paralyzed in bed and lost his mind. Li Zhi often became dizzy later, and even couldn't see clearly. It was obviously a complication caused by high blood pressure and high blood sugar.

  Tang Shunzong later had a stroke and could not speak, while Tang Muzong was dizzy and went to bed, unable to walk on the ground.

  Basically, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty had this kind of problem, which is obviously a family genetic disease.

  An old priest of the Shangyao Bureau has summed up that there are 124 types of wind and 80 types of qi. Although the medicines are the same, human nature is different. Only beriberi and head wind have qi, and they often need to take medicine continuously.

   Li Shimin is Shang Qi among the eighty kinds of qi diseases, and later Li Zhi belongs to head wind, which is a chronic disease and requires long-term medication.

  Emperor's gas disease requires long-term medication, as long as he does not do strenuous exercise or is in a period of extreme heat, it can generally be controlled.

   But the patient must remain calm and stable, not irritable.

"Everyone?"

   Seeing that the emperor seemed to be asleep, Concubine Yang called out softly.

"Um?"

  Li Shimin still closed his eyes, "Concubine Shu's pressing is really good. When you press, I feel that my whole head is much more relaxed. It was like a needle stick before."

   "Everyone is too busy, be careful of the dragon body."

   Li Shimin let out a long sigh.

This time, the sudden onset of qi disease almost killed him. At that time, he was dining in the Ganlu Palace, flipping through the secret notes sent back by Xu Luoren, watching the actions of the crown prince and Hou Junji in Longyou, the more he watched, the more angry he became, He was so angry that he fell unconscious and fell to the ground.

  Fortunately, Wei Wang Li Tai was visiting in the palace at that time, and he stayed to eat together, summoned the imperial doctor in time, performed acupuncture, massage, and medication, and the emperor finally woke up quickly.

   But what no one knew was that after Li Shimin woke up from a coma, for a short period of time, except for the movement of his eyes, his whole body was paralyzed, his hands could not move, and he could not speak.

  The feeling that he could only roll his eyes at that time filled the fearless emperor who had gone through countless battles and killed all the way from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, filled with panic.

  The feeling of being unresponsive every day and not working everywhere is still hard to forget.

   Fortunately, after Lao Fengyu's acupuncture, he was finally able to regain control of his body. After resting in bed for a few days, he was basically fine.

   Afterwards, the emperor did not tell anyone about his short-term paralysis symptoms. He carefully hid this secret, and even told the prime ministers that he was just temporarily overworked and fell into a coma, and there was nothing serious about it.

   But these days, the emperor discovered a terrible thing.

  He found that he had lost the ability to respond as a man. Since that day, he has never been able to change. This is a terrible fact. He quietly called the old man to ask.

  Old Fengyu carefully examined the emperor's body, prescribed some medicine for him to recuperate, and massaged acupuncture for him, but afterwards, no matter which concubine the emperor called, he didn't feel any more.

  The emperor who was only in his thirties, although he already had more than 30 children, was still young and strong, yet he lost this precious fertility, which dealt an extremely heavy blow to the emperor.

   These days, Li Shimin was irritable and in a bad mood, and he would get angry when he moved.

  Every night the emperor had to visit the palace. At the beginning, he called concubines, four concubines and nine concubines, but it was still the same. Later, the emperor summoned those young and beautiful palace servants, but there was still no response.

  The emperor was completely desperate.

  He began to give up tossing.

  He asked Lao Fengyu to keep it a secret, and he himself no longer summoned the beauties in the palace.

   "Fu'er also said today that she would come to see everyone."

   "I'm just a little sick, I'm fine now, let King Zhao study hard."

Zhao Wang Li Fu is the son of Concubine Yang Shu. He is five years old this year, but he has been adopted by the emperor under the name of the abolished prince Jiancheng. At the beginning, he killed his brother to seize the throne, and punished Jiancheng's five sons. Later, he became the king of Xiling, and then named Xiyin Wang, finally added Prince Yin, and adopted his son Li Fu to Jiancheng as his successor, and named him King Zhao.

  From the point of view of patriarchal clan, Li Fu is no longer Li Shimin's son, but his elder brother's heir and nephew, so Li Fu was also moved out of the palace early and lived alone in Zhao Wangfu.

   "Fu'er is considered filial." Li Shimin said lightly.

   Concubine Yang Shu looked at the emperor in a normal mood. She originally wanted to find an opportunity to plead with the emperor and let her son Li Fu stay in Beijing next year, but she finally swallowed it back.

   Not long ago, the emperor conferred titles on all the younger brothers and princes who were not sealed, and conferred the titles of princes and world titles.

  Although Zhao Wang Li Fu, who is only five years old, already has a title, but this time he has also received a world title. According to the emperor's will, these emperors and princes will leave the country of Beijing next year to take up the vassal.

  Fang was only six years old and was about to leave Beijing, thousands of miles away, to the barren land of Qianzhong Road. Concubine Yang Shu couldn't bear it very much, but she was no longer Li Fu's mother in name.

  Because the emperor adopted Li Fu to Li Jiancheng, he handed over the responsibility of Li Fu's upbringing to Jiancheng's wife Zheng Guanyin.

  Zheng Guanyin was therefore named the concubine of Zhao Guo.

   But after all, it is the flesh that fell from his body, so it is impossible to really ignore it.

Concubine Yang Shu is the highest-ranking concubine among the Yangs in the palace and one of the four concubines. She is also the daughter of the Hongnong Yang family. She is the granddaughter of Yang Suzhi, a powerful minister in the Sui Dynasty. Yang Xuangan raised an army, but was killed by the county magistrate when things failed, and the Yang family was confiscated from the palace and served as a slave. Later, the Li family won the world, and the Yang family was assigned to the Qin Palace.

  Later, King Qin came to the throne, and she was named one of the four concubines, Concubine Shu, along with Concubine Wei, Concubine Yinxian, and Concubine Yande.

On the contrary, it was the Yang family who gave birth to the two brothers Li Ke and Li Yin. Although she was the daughter of the emperor of the Sui Dynasty, Li Shimin wanted to make her a concubine, but was opposed by many ministers, especially when she was firmly opposed by the eldest grandson Wuji In the end, the matter was left alone, and the Yang family was only Jieyu, one of the nine concubines.

  As for the other Concubine Yang, she was actually Li Yuanji's Princess Qi. After Li Yuanji was killed, he was arranged to enter the palace by Li Shimin, and later gave birth to the prince Li Ming for Li Shimin. Li Shimin later named Li Yuanji the assassin king of Hailing, then the king Chaochi, and then the assassin king Cao. Later, Li Ming, born to Concubine Yang, was adopted by Li Yuanji and named Cao king.

Concubine Yang has always been in the palace so ambiguously. Li Shimin once wanted to make Yang a concubine, but in the end he was firmly opposed by the old princes like Wei Zheng. It is also very hard.

   Now that you have brought Princess Qi into your palace, everyone just turns a blind eye and closes their eyes, but you still insist on being conferred as a concubine, so that everyone will know about it, isn’t it embarrassing?

  You are not ashamed, but they are.

  So I firmly oppose it. It is impossible for the fourth concubine, even if it is a talented person.

Therefore, Li Shimin did not officially confer the title of Concubine of Cao Guo until Li Shimin granted the land to King Cao and Li Ming. Concubine case.

  Of course, it can also be that the Yang family was named the concubine of Cao Guo because of the birth mother of Cao Wang.

  Cao Guotai Concubine Yang, also Hongnong Yang, is the grand-niece of Guan Wang Yang Xiong. The three sisters of the Yang family served her husband together.

  Wei Zheng even openly called Yang a slut. Chen Ying is cheap, and he is the wife of the second monarch, and he is also prostitute.

  Educated people are very good at swearing. Wei Zheng does not use dirty words when swearing. Li Shimin even killed your Yang’s husband and your son, but you still serve him wholeheartedly. Isn’t that cheap and obscene? Why can't you imitate Xueyin Crown Princess Zheng?

So in the end, it was not enough for the Yang family to have no name and no role in the palace. Wei Zheng not only forced the emperor to make Yang the concubine of Cao Guo, but this was to restore Yang's status as Yuanji's wife, and at the same time let the emperor issue an edict that the concubine of Cao Guo After death, Zhaoling was not allowed to be buried, and Yang was allowed to go out of the palace with Cao Wang Li Ming, and went to the feudal kingdom together when Cao Wang took the feudal domain next year.

Li Fu, born to Concubine Yang Shu, was adopted to Li Jiancheng, and Li Ming, born to Concubine Yang, was adopted to Li Yuanji. The very favored sister Yang Pin of the same family.

   After all, Yang Pin had two sons. Although the emperor did not like the first son and was called inferior to a beast, Li Ke, the king of Wu, had a good name and was liked by the emperor. He often praised Yingguo and me.

   And Li Ke also performed very well. He got the support of the Yang family of Hongnong and the Xiao family of Lanling in the court, and he got full support for marrying the two surnames.

  Concubine Yang Shu's own sons have been adopted out, and she has no other sons. She can't count on others in the future, let alone the prince Chengqian born to Empress Changsun. She can only pin her hopes on King Wu, born to her sister Yang Pin.

"The concubine went to visit my sister yesterday. I heard that King Wu performed very well in pacifying the Dongcuan Rebellion in Yunnan this time. He was able to put on armor and go into battle at a young age. Not only did he boost morale, but he also personally beheaded several The rebel army led the army to achieve a great victory, and even took back Stone City in Nanning Prefecture from the Dongcuan rebels."

  Listening to Yang Shu talking about Wu Wang Li Ke, Li Shimin also had a little smile on his face.

"I was worried about him before. When I first went to the vassal state, there was a rebellion. I originally ordered him to go to Rongzhou to take refuge first. I didn't expect this kid to be worthy of my seed. He still had a bit of courage. Going south to pacify the chaos, the fight is pretty good."

   Concubine Yang Shu immediately struck while the iron was hot, and praised Li Ke according to the emperor's words.

"The sage led the army when he was sixteen years old, and he was invincible in the battle. The king of Wu did really well this time. I heard that even the Duke of Wei praised the king of Wu, thinking that although he is a prince, he can lead the way. It is very commendable to have the courage to put down chaos!"

  The corners of Li Shimin's mouth raised.

   "I asked Li Ke to go to Nanzhong to be the governor of Nanning Prefecture. It seems that I did not make a mistake. This kid has responsibility and courage."

Yang said again, "It is said that the tiger father has no dogs, and the sage is wise, so the princes will naturally be able to do so. King Wu fought bravely in Nanzhong to quell the chaos. Didn't the prince personally attack the thieves in Longyou? The ministers and concubines heard that His Royal Highness is even more worried Well, he has been able to directly command hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in dozens of prefectures such as Hexi, Longyou, Jiannan, and Anxi, and he is majestic and majestic like the saints who used to conquer the world!"

  These words made the emperor's face suddenly ugly.

Although Wu Wang Li Ke only killed a few rebels and recaptured a small city in Nanzhong, he did perform well, but Li Chengqian was in Longyou. It is very excessive and serious for him to be a consolation envoy to usurp Hou Junji's power to command the army.

  The emperor passed out before, and it was because of these reports that Concubine Yang brought up the old story again, saying that the crown prince was wise, but Li Shimin felt so congested when he heard it, and even began to have difficulty breathing.

   "Don't mention those evil animals!"

  The emperor cursed angrily.

   "I really don't dare to abolish his crown prince position, I have many virtuous princes! Li Tai and Li Ke are much better than him! Push me into a hurry, and I will..."

   Li Shimin suddenly felt that Concubine Yang's hand holding her head became heavier.

  He shut his mouth and didn't say any more.

   "Saint?"

   "Oh, it's nothing, I didn't say anything just now, you didn't hear anything, understand?" The emperor suddenly opened his eyes, staring at Concubine Yang with a very stern look and said.
