starling is not a bird

At the end of February, the emperor returned to Beijing

Before Kangxi had time to tell the empress dowager what he had seen and heard along the way, he fell ill.Persistent high fever, accompanied by intermittent chills and night sweats, the envoys of Dafang pulse department, Xiaofang pulse department, and typhoid department in Taiyuan Hospital took turns to take pulses, but they could not be diagnosed yet. Some said it was typhoid fever, and some said it was evil wind. Into the body, some say that the mind is not good.Every prescription has been carefully considered, and each dose of medicinal soup poured down is like clear water pouring stones, and it has no effect.

The crown prince was in charge of supervising the country and had to stay by Kangxi's side. He was already exhausted, but Kangxi could hardly even sit up on the day when his pulse was called.

Li Deli, the hall official of the imperial hospital, led several court envoys to kneel down three times and kowtow nine times in the atrium.At the end of the ceremony, the empress dowager asked the envoy's name, place of origin and age: "The emperor has not recovered for a long time, and he must be careful when he is sick." The prince entered the inner hall, leaned lightly beside the dragon bed, and helped the emperor up. Kangxi's body was burning hot. The tentacles were filled with icy sweat. You Ziqiang opened his eyes, saw that it was the prince, and nodded slightly.

The empress dowager asked for the pulse, and the court envoys went to the couch one by one. There was a small table outside the couch, and a small pulse pillow was placed on the bed.The prince personally held Kangxi's hand and put it on the pillow, and the little eunuch next to him covered it with a plain cloth, revealing the three parts of pulse diagnosis.The court envoy first invites the right side, and then the left side.About two minutes later, I looked at the emperor's tongue again, and played back for a while: "The pulse of the holy bow, the left inch is counted, and the left is closed; First there is yawning and fatigue, followed by coldness and bulging jaw, after the cold, both inside and outside are hot, headache, flushed face, thirsty drink, and finally sweating all over the body, the heat subsides and the body is cool. Red tongue, thin white or yellow greasy fur , pulse string."

The empress dowager couldn't bear to hear him drop the book bag, and asked anxiously, "Is this disease serious?"

The court envoy replied: "Mediate slowly, always save labor and worry, and be safe soon."

The empress dowager was furious for a while: "Don't I know? It's helpless. When will the emperor be well?"

The hospital envoys didn't dare to reply, they just said that they would prescribe the prescription after explaining the cause of the disease.

The Empress Dowager is an old man in the palace, her heart is like a mirror, what is unclear, but there are few prescriptions that do not use the medicine of tigers and wolves, and the imperial doctors are afraid of taking responsibility for treating the emperor's illness, so the people below are extremely cautious. Drag the word formula, hang their lives with some warming potions, and never dare to submit the real prescriptions for curing diseases, because they are afraid that the ups and downs of the disease will make them stick to their necks.But the emperor couldn't bear it any longer, and the queen mother felt very uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart.

The princes in Wuyi Palace have also stopped their classes these few days, and the prince arranged to greet each other in each palace every day. The older elder brother went to the general affairs of each ministry, and the younger elder brother took turns to kneel.

Eldest elder brother Yinfei is very unhappy recently. The emperor is seriously ill and the crown prince is in charge of the country. He has always been at odds with the crown prince. On weekdays, relying on himself as the eldest brother and his military achievements, he has the aura of fighting against the crown prince. Now that the emperor is seriously ill, the prince took the opportunity to send him to the Ministry of Rites to deal with the matter of building a church by the Raksha people while the elder brother was in charge of the six ministries.When I returned to the palace, I greeted the emperor every day, and the prince stood by. Even the empress dowager did not have the part to intervene in the prescriptions. The trapped animal is in a cage, so it can only be anxious but has nowhere to exert strength.Every time Yinfei thought that if Kangxi went away like this and the crown prince ascended the throne, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain?Do you really want to bow your head to your younger brother and shout long live three times?His heart was so angry that pimples appeared all over his face. Others didn't care about it, they only regarded him as filial piety, and Concubine Hui felt so sorry for her.

The eldest elder brother of the Ministry of Rites, the prince of the supervisory country, the third elder brother who repaired books, the fourth elder brother of the household department, the fifth elder brother who accompanied the driver, and the seventh elder brother who commanded the imperial army, all the older princes were restless and unique. Yinhu didn't feel at ease in the slightest, besides kneeling on the scriptures every day, she teased a few younger brothers of her own family, and occasionally went out of the palace to greet Prince Yu.

When he was on a tour of Gyeonggi, Yinhu sent his grandma and writer Haosheng along the way to inquire about the good doctor, but there was no news yet.After returning to the palace, he originally planned to call some imperial doctors because he was sick, but Kangxi was ill again.Yinhu didn't want to make more moves, so he had to silently write down several medical prescriptions in the previous palace, saying that the prescriptions were secretly given to Concubine Hui by a folk strange person, and coaxed Concubine Hui with the name of nourishing the elder brother. Prepare a lot, and then send a bunch of them to Prince Yu's mansion.Prince Yu was not seriously ill at first, but he was infected with a little bit of miasma when he sent troops, and he would recover if he took good care of him. Unfortunately, he was reprimanded by the emperor and cut off the prince when he was defeated.Yinhu was originally an exquisite heart of crystal glass, and every word of advice could fall into Prince Yu's heart. After several times of enlightenment, Prince Yu also got better day by day.Yinhu also let go of half of his heart. There are still ten years before the death of Prince Yu in the 42nd year of Kangxi, and there must be a chance to keep this uncle.

On the other hand, Kangxi, who was sick in bed, did not get Yinhu's care. The daily greetings were just empty stories. How to ask the doctor to prolong the medicine, how to give the needle to signal the pulse, how the prince served day and night, how the elder brother burned incense and made a wish, all were like the wind blowing cow ear.My father has been able to reign for 61 years, how could he go at this time?Why bother?

Besides, Yinhu did not forget that in September of the 55th year of Kangxi, he got typhoid fever, and the situation was quite bad, and he might die at any time.After the third elder brother Yinzhi reported this matter, his own Huang Ama only approved the four words "try hard to heal", thinking about it, he felt that the Tian family was ruthless.A few days later, the imperial doctor reported that his condition had worsened, and Kangxi wrote on the package: "I have always believed in medicine and witches, but was tricked by scoundrels, took too much medicine, and accumulated too much poison. It is good fortune, if the poisonous gas is not clean and then use tonic, it seems difficult to cure." There is a sense of sarcasm in the tone.

I have offended Tianyan by seizing the throne, and lost my father's heart. I shouldn't have expected anything extravagantly, but how can people not feel chilling after one after another?When Rehe returned to Changchun Garden in the western suburbs, he had to pass by the garden where he was convalescing. Therefore, Kangxi actually passed the decree to the third elder brother Yinzhi and the fourth elder brother Yinzhen who took care of the sick, "If the elder brother is dying and loses his voice, he is unconscious. Personnel matters can be ordered to be relocated. Let the princes discuss it."

The emperor's intentions were obvious, he wanted to move himself back to the city mansion, fearing that it would be unlucky if his son died on the way back to Changchun Garden.For this reason, Kangxi also sent the third elder brother starry night to check whether he was dying and when he died.

Every time Yinhu thinks of this, he can't forget his good fourth brother, his father's good son Yinzhen. In order to be considerate of his old father, he even suggested moving him back to the city overnight when the princes were discussing in private , Don't think about brotherhood at all, it's chilling to think about it.Only Xiao Jiu Yinzhen jumped up angrily and said: "Eighth elder brother is so seriously ill now, if something happens to go home, who will bear it?" The princes did not dare to make decisions after hearing this, so they hurriedly reported back to Kangxi.Kangxi was very upset and said, "The eighth elder brother is already unconscious. If you want to move back, you must not shirk and I will order him to go home."

Even if tiger poison doesn't eat its offspring, it's ruthless like an emperor's family.Kangxi only puts himself first, regardless of his son's life and death, he wants to move his son back to the mansion, and even shirks his own responsibilities. No matter how difficult it is for Yinhu to have the slightest father-son affection for him.After Yinhu recovered from his illness, the emperor probably felt ashamed, so he immediately restored his salary, silver and rice, and specially sent someone to ask him what he wanted to eat after his illness: "I have everything here, but I don't know if it is suitable for you. So I dare not send it."

As the greatest imperial father in the world, he actually used the word "dare not". Yinhu dared not bear it, and dragged his sick body to the palace gate to beg to be spared from using the word.Kangxi, in turn, blamed Yinhu for "often being suspicious, always focusing on useless things", "causing troubles out of nothing."No matter what you do, it's not good.Since you can't please, why bother too hard?Since his filial son, the crown prince, is serving him closely, the crown prince is afraid that he will serve him too well, and he will sit in the position of crown prince for a few more years, which is too unwilling.

This day, Yinhu coaxed Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi to draw bows and shoot arrows with a few rare fingers. He didn't forget that Xiaojiu, who was originally the most handsome among brothers, later indulged in wine and meat, had fun at home all day long, and ate alive. The fat man was afraid of the heat and hated the cold. In the end, he was locked up and confined by Yongzheng people, and he almost died of heat.Xiaojiu and Xiaoshi are very sincere to Yinhu, he doesn't want them to suffer any more, and whenever he has time, he takes them on a wandering tour, coaxing and begging them to practice calligraphy and study, draw bows and shoot arrows, just because he is afraid that they will not succeed, be disliked in the future.Even if they can't get into Yongzheng's eyes, at least let Kangxi give them a favor. If they can let Kangxi make them a prince, I'm afraid that no one will be able to deal with them ruthlessly in the future.

Xiao Jiu loves beauty, Yinhu collected a bunch of good fingers, new purses, and gave him one as soon as he recited a chapter of the book, Xiao Shi liked to make trouble, so Yinhu sent his servants to find some bamboo dragonflies, small drums and small gongs under the overpass , If you hit a three-yuan shot at a grass target, you will be exchanged for him.

The brothers were bustling with excitement, and the sullen-faced elder brother hurried out of the palace gate with a few subordinate officials.Yinhu thought for a while, threw a few playthings for the little brothers to play with, and quickly chased after him in a whole robe.

After finally seeing the elder brother's figure at the second gate of the inner court, Yinhu quickened his pace to catch up and bowed uprightly, saying:

"Greetings to big brother, big brother has worked hard recently, and you are in a hurry at this hour?"

Seeing that it was Yinhu, the eldest elder brother hastily ordered those subordinate officials, and couldn't help complaining to Yinhu when he turned his head: "Please be safe these few days, seeing that the father is in a bad condition, I am willing to serve the decoction more, Prince They just sent me around to the Ministry of Rites, those Raksha devils, what's the point of Westerners building a church, if it deserves approval, then discuss it again, and then continue to discuss it?"

Yinhu smiled:

"The prince's behavior is nothing more than wanting to sell well in front of the father. It is obvious that he is the only one who puts the emperor at the top of his heart. Brother, please relax, the father is the body of the emperor, and it is at the peak of the spring and autumn. What's not clear, it's all the blood of the Tian family, which son isn't worried, longing for his father to get well as soon as possible?"

Yinti took a look at Yinhu's relaxed look, but he was still in a hurry. The eighth child was still young, so he didn't know how powerful he was. Yinti had already bought a copy of Kangxi's medical records from the Tai Hospital, and sent it to him privately. The medical officer I had to use saw it, and they all said it was febrile malaria.Ten malaria and nine deaths, the prescriptions given by the imperial doctors in the palace were like water, but Kangxi was getting more and more muddled, showing no signs of recovery at all.Yinti was afraid that Kangxi would not be able to survive this time, and his lofty ambitions would be like white wax to the fire.

Yinhu knew the elder brother's heart knot, although he didn't want to take advantage of Kangxi, but he couldn't see Concubine Hui's anxiety these days, and even brought her biological mother Wei to cut down on food and clothing, just to pray for Kangxi.Now I want to make a point: "The quack doctors in the palace who are afraid of losing their heads are procrastinating and dare not prescribe medicine. They are the delay of the father's illness. Brother, you are now in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and those Western devils also have some strange skills. Why not?" Ask them if they have any problems in the sea, and if they say yes, they will heal the father?"

When the elder brother heard this, he seemed to have the sound of Jinlun Yuyin. He split the two door bones on the top of his head, poured a basin of snow water, and hurriedly said goodbye to Yinhu, and rushed straight to the Ministry of Rites.

That night, Elder Brother led the French missionaries Hong Ruohan and Liu Ying into the palace, and presented the special Western medicine for treating malaria - Cinchona cream.In a few days, Emperor Kangxi was able to stand up and handle government affairs. The emperor recovered from his illness and naturally rewarded his ministers. After discovering the pain of this eldest grandson, even the pimples on his face were praised wholeheartedly for the king. He sent soup and medicine, cared for him all the time, and took care of him everywhere. The words are warm and the face is kind.
