This day is not destined to be peaceful.

Murong Fu was physically and mentally exhausted, it was rare that he drank the medicine early and fell asleep.Unexpectedly, just after Haishi, someone came from the palace in a hurry and asked him to enter the palace immediately.Murong Fu is not in charge of duty in the Zhengshitang today, but the palace suddenly sent someone to invite him, it must be a big deal.In view of this, even though Murong Fu was clearly tired and could fall asleep anytime and anywhere, he still had to go to the Forbidden Palace full of waking up.

Murong Fu hurriedly entered the palace with his attendants all the way, and soon arrived at the residence of Zhao Xu, the official family of the Great Song Dynasty - Funing Palace.As soon as Fang entered Funing Hall, he saw Empress Dowager Xiang, Concubine Zhu, Zhao Xu, Empress Meng and others gathered in Funing Hall, with serious expressions on their faces, as if they had encountered something embarrassing and difficult.Murong Fu didn't dare to delay, he hastily stepped forward to salute.Unexpectedly, he had just stood up, and before he had time to ask questions, a scream suddenly came from the side hall of Funing Hall.

"Child... the official family..." It was a female voice who screamed.The cry was shrill and sharp, the despair and grief and indignation were so extreme that Murong Fu couldn't help shivering shiveringly.

After this scream, the owner of that voice was silent again.In the side hall, only a lot of maids shouted "Jieyu" in unison!After a while, Zheng Sun Qing of the Grand Hospital entered the hall together with two other imperial physicians whom Murong Fu had never met.Without waiting for the lords to speak, the three of them knelt down on the ground at the same time, and said with a look of panic on their faces: "I want to report to the Queen Mother and the officials, Liu Jieyu's pulse is weak and she is bleeding profusely. I can't keep it..."

Poor Murong Fu had just been frightened, and hadn't tasted anything from this shocking gossip, the emperor Zhao Xu, who had always been sitting on the throne with a gloomy face, jumped off the dragon chair.Without saying a word, he kicked Sun Qinghe's shoulder and yelled loudly like crazy: "Bao! Save him for me! Bao! If my child is gone, I will kill you!" "

Sun Qinghe has worked in the imperial hospital for decades, and his medical skills are superb and highly respected. At his current age, how can he stand the foot of the young and powerful emperor?Everyone only heard a "plop", and Sun Yuan, who was over [-] years old, was kicked to the ground.His face was pale and trembling all over, but before he could cry out the pain, he hurriedly turned over and fell on the ground, his forehead hit the floor with a "bang bang bang", and he said repeatedly: "My humble minister is incompetent! My humble minister is incompetent!"

As soon as Sun Qinghe said this, the two imperial physicians kneeling beside him also imitated the example, and at the same time exclaimed "the humble minister is incompetent".

How could Zhao Xu listen to such words?He was about to rush forward to beat Sun Yuanzheng again, but before he took two steps forward, Murong Fu hugged him by the waist.Murong Fu said in a deep voice: "The officials calm down! Life and death are fate, you can't force it!" Zhao Xu was furious when he heard the words, and he wanted to struggle and curse, but suddenly his waist went numb, and he lost his strength in an instant.

Seeing Murong Fu half-supporting and half-embracing Zhao Xu back into the seat, he immediately turned to Sun Qinghe and asked: "Sun Yuanzheng, what is Liu Jieyu's situation now? Tell me clearly!"

Sun Qinghe was grateful to see Murong come back to stop Zhao Xu and spare him the pain of flesh and blood.Hearing his question, he hurriedly kowtowed and sighed: "Jieyu's body is delicate and her pregnancy was only a month old, so her pregnancy was not stable. Today... she accidentally slipped again, and now Jieyu Yu bled profusely and fell into a coma, this baby...is absolutely impossible to keep!"

As soon as Sun Qinghe finished speaking, Empress Dowager Xiang and Concubine Zhu wept together, crying repeatedly: "This...how can this be done..."

Empress Meng, who was originally standing beside the Queen Mother, was even more distressed, but she suddenly "sighed" and fell down with her eyes closed.

"Empress! Empress!" The maid beside Empress Meng hurriedly rushed over, crying loudly around Empress Meng. "The empress is so heartbroken that she has passed out! The empress..."

The acting is vivid and the coordination is superb!Murong Fu looked at Empress Meng enviously, he really wanted to pass out and leave this shit alone!But Murong Fu was able to cooperate with Empress Meng in acting, but he really couldn't bear the crying that filled the room.Seeing the crying and screaming into a mess, he finally couldn't help shouting: "Shut up!"

His cry contained internal energy, and the maids who were crying hard were frightened by him and immediately stopped crying.

"You guys, send the empress to the apse and seek the imperial doctor's pulse." Murong Fu sent away Empress Meng and the group, and then spoke to Sun Qinghe again. "Yuanzheng Sun, it is about the emperor's heir, so don't ignore it!"

Sun Qinghe also shook his head and said with tears: "This humble minister is incompetent."

"No... no! Keep him! Keep him!" Zhao Xu's hands and feet were so weak that he couldn't move, and he burst into tears after hearing Sun Qinghe's words so convincingly.

Murong Fu sighed and pointed his eyes towards the Empress Dowager and Concubine Zhu.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Zhu just held her handkerchief and bowed her head in tears.

Empress Dowager Xiang also wept, and after crying for a while, she choked up and said, "Murong Qing, you are the prime minister on the left, you are the one to decide!"

If you can't keep it, what else can you do?Murong Fu was really speechless.He knew that the empress dowager, concubine Zhu and even empress Meng avoided suspicion and refused to speak out because they were afraid that the officials would be angry later.On the contrary, it was Murong Fu himself, the officials had always disliked him, and he was already a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.From a political point of view, the Tian family has no personal affairs.Since Murong Fu is the prime minister, he is also the chief steward of the entire Song Dynasty, so it is not unreasonable for him to handle this matter.

"So... saving people is the most important thing!" Murong Fu sighed and said slowly. "The official family and Jieyu are upright and young, but this child has no destiny with the Tian family. In the future, Jieyu will take good care of her body, and there will always be children again."

With Murong Fu's words, Empress Dowager Xiang and Concubine Zhu immediately persuaded Zhao Xu in unison: "Officials, Murong Qing is right!"

Zhao Xu still gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Murong Fu really didn't have the patience to wait for Zhao Xu to make a painful decision. In ancient times, women's childbirth was like entering the gates of hell, and this miscarriage is almost the same.Since the child is no longer protected, the adult must be protected.He immediately said: "Sun Yuanzheng, saving people is the most important thing. Go!"

This is what Sun Qinghe was waiting for, and he hastily answered yes, and returned to the side hall with the other two gynecologists to save people.

However, even Liu Jieyu couldn't keep her.

Murong Fu waited in the main hall for Zishi with several dignitaries, but only waited for Sun Qinghe and the three imperial doctors replied with a pale face: "Jieyu is bleeding profusely, she has already gone."

"My concubine! My concubine!" Zhao Xu finally regained his strength in his hands and feet, and rushed to the side hall crying all the way.Zhao Xu and Liu Jieyu have always had a close relationship, now that Liu Jieyu has passed away, Zhao Xu is indeed heartbroken.

Murong Fu saw that slipping and miscarriage can kill people, he was also dumbfounded.He still remembered that this Liu Jieyu was deeply loved by Zhao Xu in history.Zhao Xu did not hesitate to fight all the officials because of her, and wanted to depose the innocent Empress Meng and help her to be the new empress.In the end, he got his wish.Of course, Zhao Xu had a falling out with the new empress later on, and it will be another story to abolish the empress for the second time.This Liu Jieyu was able to persuade the emperor to abolish the empress for her, and she could be called a generation of palace fighters. How could she die so easily?Murong Fu was really confused.However, the matter has come to this point, and it cannot be restored by manpower.Seeing that he was silent for a while, Fang sighed and said: "Queen Dowager, Dowager Concubine, please let me be sad."

Concubine Zhu and Zhao Xu are biological mother and son, and their temperament has always been weak. Hearing this sad news, he couldn't help crying.

Empress Dowager Xiang was a little stronger than Concubine Zhu, she cried for a while and said: "Murong Qing, go and persuade the officials, this is his and Liu Jieyu's first child..."

By the time Murong Fu pulled Zhao Xu off Liu Jieyu's body and sent him to the back hall to change clothes and sleep, it was already halfway through.After leaving Funing Hall exhausted, only Sun Qinghe was left outside the hall.Murong Fu and Sun Qing had an old relationship, seeing him waiting for him, he hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands.

Sun Qinghe looked around, and after confirming that there was no one else, he pulled Murong Fu aside and bowed deeply. "Today, thank you Lord Murong for your protection!"

"Your Majesty Sun, you don't need to be polite." Murong Fu stretched out his hand to support him, and at the same time pressed hard on his temple, which was burning like needles, and finally couldn't help asking. "With the medical skills of Imperial Physician Sun, how could even a woman in miscarriage be unable to save her life?"

Speaking of this, Sun Qinghe immediately let out a long sigh with a bitter face. "When I was in office, I received news that Liu Jieyu accidentally slipped and fell and was in danger of having a miscarriage. By the time I went to check the pulse with two colleagues, the baby would have been lost a long time ago! If at that time, the drug for abortion was decided immediately, Liu Jieyu wouldn't know either...But, if the officials bite him to death, they will definitely keep the emperor's heir...The improper medicine was delayed for several hours, even a seven-foot man couldn't stand it, let alone Liu Jieyu. A weak woman?"

After hearing this explanation, Murong Fu couldn't help being speechless for a while.

"... Now that Liu Jieyu's life is in danger, my hospital is at the end of the day, and it's time to retire and return home." Speaking of this, Sun Qinghe couldn't help but sigh softly.The officials are unreasonable and moody, and it is really difficult to serve them. It is reasonable to pack up and leave. "But there is one thing... I want to tell Master Murong to know." Speaking of this, Sun Qinghe immediately leaned into Murong Fu's ear and whispered. "The lower official checked Liu Jieyu's pulse and found that Jieyu did not slip and fall during miscarriage, but was injured by a heavy object!"

"What?" Murong Fu was startled when he heard the words.This Liu Jieyu is a concubine in the harem, and has always been favored by officials, even Empress Meng would shy away from her.Now that she is pregnant again, who is it who is so bold to injure her, resulting in one dead body and two lives?There was a vague idea in his mind, but he was so tired that he couldn't figure it out for a while.

It was Sun Yuanzheng who finished this gossip and consciously repaid Murong Fu's kindness, so he left.

Murong Fu stood on the same spot for a while, just about to think about the cause and effect, when the cries of court ladies and officials' howls echoed in his head again, his whole head throbbed with pain.Murong Fu couldn't help but reached out and pressed his forehead again, and finally gave up thinking.

Just as he was about to leave the Forbidden Palace, another servant walked over quickly not far away, bowed and said: "Lord Murong, the Empress Dowager is here to invite you."

Murong Fu felt that he could fall asleep standing up now, even if he summoned the Empress Dowager, he couldn't help but sigh with his brows pressed together. "Chairman, please!"

"My lord, please!" The waiter immediately replied, half a body forward to lead the way for Murong Fu.This waiter seemed to want to make friends with Murong Fu, he whispered when he saw no one around along the way. "My lord, the officials are saddened by the loss of the prince Jieyu, and they are afraid that they will anger you. Your lord should be cautious in dealing with the imperial court in the future."

"Oh? What's the reason?" Murong Fu heard the words, immediately pulled out a stack of sticks from his sleeve and stuffed them. "Also ask the chief to advise."

The servant's face was like a spring flower as soon as he squeezed the thickness of his hand, and he said hurriedly: "Don't dare to lie to my lord, today there was a gunshot in your mansion, and then the Kaifeng mansion ordered the whole city to be martial law, the officials are already worried... Later, Liu Jieyu got into a dispute with the official for some reason, and the slaves heard that the official once said..."

Murong Fu saw that servant's complexion suddenly changed, he seemed to be afraid, he took a step forward and squeezed his arm tightly, and said ruthlessly: "What did the official say?" Like iron tongs, the servant was firmly trapped, making him unable to move.

The servant was frightened by him, and he didn't dare to struggle immediately, and replied honestly: "The official said... said... if there is a prince, will they force me to do something?"

"So that's how it is..." Murong Fu was silent for a while after knowing the cause and effect.

Zhao Xu was afraid of flintlock guns, fearing that he would be sniped in the face of heavy guards, so the imperial guards guarding the Forbidden Palace were not equipped with flintlock guns.Gunshots were heard in the Prime Minister's Mansion today, and then the Kaifeng Mansion ordered the entire city to be under martial law. It was because Zhao Xu was afraid that Murong Fu would force the palace to rebel!After the application of time, although the martial law in Kaifeng Mansion has been lifted, Zhao Xu is still like a frightened bird, and Liu Jieyu came to announce her pregnancy at this time... Liu Jieyu's death is really a disaster without reason.

The regulations of the imperial palace in the Song Dynasty were relatively small, and Murong Fu heard another big gossip on the way, and soon came to the Longyou Palace where the Queen Mother lived.

I saw that the empress dowager's eyes were red and swollen and her complexion was haggard, obviously she hadn't slept yet.As soon as Murong Fu saluted and stood up, the Empress Dowager could not help crying: "I finally got pregnant in the harem...why, why did it disappear?"

In the end why not, don't you have to ask the official?Murong Fu thought to himself, hurriedly bowed deeply to persuade: "My condolences to the Empress Dowager, the days to come will be long."

Empress Dowager Xiang was obviously not able to be persuaded by Murong Fu's understatement, she shook her head and cried again: "The official family has been married for many years and has no children so far. The foundation of the country is not stable, and people's hearts are floating!"

Murong Fu obviously understands this truth.But in history, Zhao Xu died without a son, and then his younger brother Duan Wang Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne.This is purely because of Zhao Xu's own body, even crying to the Bodhisattva to the Empress Dowager is more effective than crying in front of Murong Fu.Murong Fu really had no choice but to do nothing, he was silent for a long time and could only persuade softly: "The official family is growing up, and there will be a lot of children and grandchildren in the future, so the Empress Dowager don't have to worry too much."

However, the queen mother still burst into tears.Zhao Xu has always been afraid of Murong Fu, and he doesn't want him to know about the harem.In order to show his loyalty and selflessness, Murong Fu never intervened in the palace.But these things can be hidden from Murong Fu, but they cannot be hidden from Queen Mother Xiang.Zhao Xu was originally weak and often suffered from illnesses, but last year he became more depressed after being frightened by the heads of those two Xia people.The average life expectancy of the emperors of the Song Dynasty was not high, and the Empress Dowager Xiang was afraid that Zhao Xu would die before he could leave any heirs.But such words are really rebellious, and the Queen Mother has been thinking about it for several years and dare not mention it to others.Seeing her choked up for a while, Fang said: "The Ai family watched coldly, most of the women in the harem are not favored by the officials. Now that Liu Jieyu has passed away, there is no one in the harem who is lovable to the officials... If not, pick Draft girls enrich the harem?"

When Murong Fu heard this, his eyebrows twitched wildly.According to the modern medical concepts he knows, Zhao Xu is congenitally deficient, and if he becomes a groom every night, it will only make his sperm quality worse.As a result, children will not be able to be born, or the children born will not be healthy enough and will die young.What's more, with Zhao Xu's lifespan in history, he will have to drive west in just two or three years.Wouldn't it be harmful for a person to choose a show girl now?

Seeing that Murong Fu remained silent all this time, Empress Dowager Xiang's face gradually turned cold, and said quietly: "Could it be that Murong Qing is really as worried as the officials...have different ideas?"

"I don't dare!" Murong Fu hurriedly knelt on the ground when he heard this.In a blink of an eye, Murong Fu realized in an instant: The Longyou Palace of the Empress Dowager has always been strictly guarded, what the servant just said was probably intended to be known by the Empress Dowager.Today's changes outside the palace not only made Zhao Xu tremble with fear, but also made the Empress Dowager Xiang fearful.It's ridiculous that I'm so stupid that I can't see through all kinds of doubts, and the empress dowager has to speak out.Thinking of this, he immediately said in a low voice: "In my heart... until now, there is only Princess Shushou, and I will never dare to damage her reputation behind her."

Speaking of Princess Shushou, the Empress Dowager Xiang's heart also softened.Seeing her leaning on the throne, she shed tears silently, Fang sighed wearily: "Murong Qing, Aijia is also for your own good... At the foot of the emperor, in the capital of the first good, those knives, arrows and guns can only hurt the peace !"

"I understand, I thank the Queen Mother for your kindness." Murong Fu lowered his head and said insincere words, for some reason, he became more and more disgusted in his heart.In these years, in order to avoid suspicion and keep his position as prime minister, he never intervened in the palace or made friends with the forbidden army.Unexpectedly... "It's just that the humble minister is worried... Even if a beautiful girl is selected to enrich the harem, the officials will only think this is a trick of the humble minister and dare not get close. Or... there is a second Liu Jieyu!"

Murong Fu spoke so clearly, Empress Dowager Xiang was immediately ashamed and angry, and then he slapped the armrest and reprimanded loudly: "Presumptuous!"

But at this moment Murong Fu suddenly raised his head and looked straight into the Empress Dowager's eyes, and said word by word: "Empress Dowager, the official family has been in charge for less than two years, so rushing to pick beautiful women into the palace will only make the people of the world criticize Officials are lustful and immoral! In my humble opinion, officials should take good care of their health and get closer to the queen!"

Empress Dowager Xiang attached great importance to Empress Meng, and she was silent when she heard Murong Fu say this. After a while, Fang sighed: "The gap between the official family and the empress is already deep...but the emperor's heir can't wait!"

"Then, although the official family has few heirs, the clan is flourishing." Murong Fu smiled playfully, and his tone was as low as a whisper. "If there is... If there is... I invite you to follow the example of Emperor Renzong!" Song Renzong had no children, so he had to adopt Zhao Shu, the son of King Pu Zhao Yunrang, as his heir.And Zhao Shu was the husband of the late Empress Dowager, Emperor Xian Yingzong.It can be said that Zhao Xu's throne was picked up by his grandfather by good luck, so it is understandable to let other clans have a taste of it in the future.

The Empress Dowager was shocked when she heard Murong Fu's proposal, and then looked at the other party's deep and meaningful eyes, and she was even more thoughtful and silent.

But Murong Fu only clicked to the end and didn't say much, got up immediately and said: "It's getting late, my minister will leave!" After saying that, he hurriedly left the palace.

Xue Muhua and Tai Shan waited outside the palace for the whole night, until it was almost dawn, only then did they see Murong Fu leaning on the palace wall like a wandering soul and coming out step by step.Noticing that his complexion was as pale as a ghost, Xue Muhua and Tai Shan changed color at the same time, and immediately chased after him, holding him tightly.

Xue Muhua frantically wanted to feel Murong Fu's pulse, but Murong Fu only held onto Tai Shan's arm tightly, panting and said: "Remove all...the fusiliers from the Fuzhong!" , and fell into Xue Muhua's arms on his back, cold sweat pouring out of his body layer by layer like rain.

"My lord!" Xue Muhua cried out in surprise and hurriedly said. "Quick! Get in the car quickly! Go home!"

Taishan's character is upright, but Murong Fu's order is obedient, he only said in a low voice: "Your Excellency said, today I will go to the Political Affairs Hall to deal with government affairs!"

"What kind of government affairs are you still dealing with?" Xue Muhua became angry when he heard Tai Shan's words, and immediately shouted loudly. "The Zhao family is stingy, and they only give such a small official salary. Do they want to use people to death? Sue the sick! Sue the sick immediately!"

Murong Fu moved his lips as if to refute, but there was nothing he could do.Soon, there was only darkness in his world, a silent darkness.

The author has something to say:

Director: Empress Dowager Xiang, what kind of Mr. Murong are you looking for for housework!The aunts of the neighborhood committee are more effective than him!

Queen Mother: Who made him Prime Minister?

Murong: Hehe!
