Chapter 67 The long-cherished wish to regain the Loop
"Who says a useless thing can't be saved? Who knows if you don't make a final attempt!"
Zhu Houzhao had already entered Ma Wensheng's room before he could say anything.
When everyone looked back, they were all shocked when they saw this, wondering why His Majesty was here?
Li Shizhen's father, Li Yanwen, who was an official at the Taiyuan Hospital at the time, felt quite aggrieved. He thought that he was also a famous doctor, but now Ma Gefu was so ill that even gods could not save him. How could he say that he was useless? Sure enough, This bowl of rice in Taiyuan Hospital is not delicious.
Everyone hurriedly turned around to kneel to Zhu Houzhao.
Although Li Yanwen was unhappy at being reprimanded by Zhu Houzhao, he was still prepared to bow obediently.
Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao hurriedly shouted: "Don't kneel down! I'm not dead!"
After Zhu Houzhao drank like this, no one dared to kneel down again.
When Ma Wensheng saw Emperor Zhu Houzhao coming, he raised his hand higher and opened his mouth to say something, but he could only spit out the word "Your Majesty", and his old eyes involuntarily shed two turbid tears. Come.
Zhu Houzhao didn't know why, but he couldn't help but his eyes got wet when he saw this scene, but he still shouted loudly:
"There is no need to get up and salute. Except for the imperial doctor and the old lady, everyone should leave here. In addition, go and open the windows and give the patient enough air!"
His Majesty the Emperor issued an order, and others did not dare to disobey. The filial sons and grandsons who were waiting to mourn Ma Wensheng hurriedly left.
Zhu Houzhao also walked in, letting the others stand outside the courtyard, and only led Qiu Ju to Ma Wensheng.
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly ordered the old lady to prepare a glass of warm water. At the same time, Qiu Ju immediately took out some nitroglycerin tablets and prepared to give Ma Wensheng medicine.
It was the first time for Ma Wensheng's wife to see His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. She didn't know how to stop Emperor Zhu Houzhao for a while, so she had to obey obediently and hurriedly fetched warm water like an old servant and handed it to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the water is here. ”
At that time, Li Yanwen didn't know what the powdery thing in Qiu Ju's hand was, but he thought it was some kind of elixir. He couldn't help but remind him: "Your Majesty, although Ge Fu's illness was caused by a temporary stimulus, the disease has already been in his body for a long time. Moreover, because of his old age, blocked blood vessels and heart failure, there is no human intervention. If he uses elixirs rashly, it will make Ge Fu even more miserable before his death. Lead and mercury substances will only damage the liver and spleen, and will not help! "< br>
Although Zhu Houzhao secretly felt that Li Yanwen should have relatively high medical skills, otherwise he would not have judged that the root cause of Ma Wensheng's disease was heart failure due to old age, but at this moment, he wanted to try nitroglycerin, and naturally he was too lazy to listen to this. , and quickly ordered someone to cover Li Yanwen's mouth.
At the same time, Zhu Houzhao ordered Qiu Ju to give Ma Wensheng a glass of warm water to moisten his mouth, and at the same time put nitroglycerin tablets under his tongue.
Ma Wensheng was unable to resist, so he had to hold the nitroglycerin tablets in his mouth.
Mrs. Ma Wensheng did not dare to stop Emperor Zhu Houzhao. She only looked at her wife worriedly. She was deeply afraid that her wife would be in more pain after taking such elixirs as Dr. Li just said, so she secretly wiped away her tears. , I thought that His Majesty was also unreliable. In order to save his wife, he directly fed his wife pills, but he couldn't stop it.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but look at Ma Wensheng after he took the medicine, and he was secretly worried. He thought that nitroglycerin could reduce the pressure on the heart and expand the coronary arteries, thus achieving the purpose of treating coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular diseases.
But what Zhu Houzhao is not sure about is whether the nitroglycerin he asked Qiu Ju to extract will really be effective on the human body. After all, it has not gone through clinical trials, but Zhu Houzhao can only take a gamble. At worst, Ma Wensheng will still die of heart disease, but if it succeeds, On the one hand, it can naturally bring Ma Wensheng back to life. On the other hand, it can be said that good medicines such as nitroglycerin for treating heart disease have completed clinical trials and can be mass-produced.
I don’t know whether it was because the medicine started to take effect or because Ma Wensheng had a flashback. When Ma Wensheng saw Zhu Houzhao sitting in front of him, he was finally able to speak:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me that I can no longer assist Your Majesty in establishing the new policy of civil service reform. However, my long-cherished wish has not yet been fulfilled. Now I can only entrust it to Your Majesty. If there is a day in the future when my long-cherished wish can be fulfilled, I hope that Your Majesty will send someone to visit my grave. Tell me!
The old minister can also tell the late emperor under Jiuquan. The late emperor also had this wish with the old minister before his death. It is a pity that the great cause failed and the middle road collapsed. Now the old minister also has to go to the late emperor in advance and tell his majesty his aspirations. In this way, your majesty You can feel happy even under the Nine Springs! "As Ma Wensheng spoke, he coughed violently, and immediately he couldn't help but close his old eyes. Two lines of hot tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes. Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but hold his old hands, and just sighed and asked: "What is it? Long-cherished wish? ”
"Recapture the Hetao! Since Xuande, the Tartars have stolen the Hetao and have not yet returned it. As a result, the border troubles have become serious and the Ming Dynasty has been unable to advance westward," Ma Wensheng replied weakly.
"Don't worry, dear, you are just suffering from a temporary rage, not a serious illness. I have just given you good medicine. You will get better. When the time comes, our monarchs and ministers will work together to regain the Hetao, not only the Hetao, but also the Hami Guard! ”
After Zhu Houzhao said this, Ma Wensheng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
At this time, Mrs. Ma Wensheng couldn't help crying again: "Your Majesty, my master is no longer useful. Please rest in the main hall and allow us to change my master's shroud and avoid his illness." To Your Majesty!”
"Look again! Weren't you able to talk to me just now? Maybe there is hope!"
Zhu Houzhao was still insisting. He didn't know why for a while, and he choked up when speaking.
"Your Majesty, maybe it's just a return to the past!"
At this time, the eunuch on the side also focused on Ma Wensheng and forgot to silence Li Yanwen, so Li Yanwen also said something at this time.
"Shut up!"
Zhu Houzhao replied directly. At this time, Ma Wensheng still had his eyes closed, but his breathing was much more regular. However, firecrackers and fireworks suddenly sounded outside, and the light directly illuminated the inner hall of Ma Mansion.
Zhu Houzhao was already a little irritable and couldn't help asking: "Who is setting off fireworks and firecrackers at this time? Go and see!"
So, someone went to see it, and then came back and reported: "Going back to the emperor, it's the Li Gechen's residence opposite, for a happy occasion!"
At this time, Ma Wensheng suddenly opened his eyes and bared his teeth: "He is trying to anger me on purpose. Li Binzhi, you and I have been officials in the same court for so long. Is it necessary to do this? Is it necessary!"< br>
After Ma Wensheng finished speaking emotionally, his breathing became rapid again.
Zhu Houzhao ordered Qiu Ju to put another nitroglycerin tablet under Ma Wensheng's tongue.
Ma Wensheng's mood recovered again, and he sat up on his own soon.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help laughing when he saw this: "It seems like this medicine is really effective."
But Li Yanwen was still staring at Ma Wensheng in the room with his eyes wide open, thinking: "The purple spots have disappeared and his breathing is calm. Is your majesty's elixir really a miracle drug? Can it really bring the dead back to life?"
