Chapter 1543: Entering the palace in the middle of the night
Wang Defa instantly understood Sun Daoning's implication, his lips trembled uncontrollably, and his face turned pale.
"Minister Sun, don't talk nonsense, His Majesty is very good!"
"I naturally hope His Majesty lives a long life. However, some situations must be guarded against. Eunuch Wang, if there is a long or short, neither of us can bear the consequences. If you don't want to die, listen to me."
Sun Daoning was too lazy to argue with the other party; time was precious right now, so he stated it directly.
Wang Defa's heart was very chaotic.
Xie Changling came once during the day, forcing him to think wildly all day.
At night, Sun Daoning came again, his mood was chaotic, he gritted his teeth, and decisively made a decision: "Alright! Just follow your meaning, invite another minister to be on duty at night. No need to call all the officials in the Political Affairs Hall. The movement is too big, it will definitely leak the news. Then it won't be hidden. The imperial court, and even the whole world will be turbulent. Minister Sun doesn't want that situation to appear, right."
Sun Daoning suddenly let out a sigh of relief, at least his life was preserved.
He was too lazy to care about Wang Defa's attitude and said: "Time is running out, hurry up and arrange for people to leave the palace."
"May I ask Minister Sun, which minister to invite?"
"Naturally, Prime Minister Xie!"
Wang Defa frowned: "Better invite Minister Xu."
Now it was Sun Daoning's turn to frown.
Cao Song was thrown into prison, and the Political Affairs Hall had now become the world of Xu and Xie. Minister Xu's faction, Xie Changling's faction.
He keenly sensed that Wang Defa wanted to engage in checks and balances. Because he was Xie Changling's person, he had long publicly taken sides with Xie Changling.
He pondered for a while: "Alright, just follow your meaning, invite Minister Xu into the palace."
Now is not the time for infighting.
Wang Defa secretly let out a sigh of relief, immediately called his god-grandson, gave the waist token, and let the other party take people out of the palace quickly to invite Minister Xu.
"Arrange another team of people to invite Medical Official Mu from the Heavenly Prison."
Sun Daoning frowned and immediately asked Wang Defa: "What does it have to do with Medical Official Mu, why invite him?"
Wang Defa signaled the little eunuchs to stay away, and whispered to Sun Daoning: "His Majesty doesn't trust the imperial physicians in the Taiyi Academy, thinking their medicine is too conservative. The original plan was to invite Medical Official Mu into the palace under the pretext of diagnosing the ministers. Now it seems it's too late. If His Majesty... this situation... can only invite people into the palace in advance."
Sun Daoning understood and also understood this arrangement.
Medical Official Mu's medical skills are nothing to say.
If His Majesty's condition still hasn't improved in two days, he would also recommend Medical Official Mu to enter the palace for diagnosis and treatment.
"Medical Official Mu is resting in the Heavenly Prison tonight. No need to go to the Mu family, go directly to the Heavenly Prison to invite people. Take this official's name card. Tell Chen Guanlou, don't block it!"
Wang Defa was very surprised: "Minister Sun is very clear about his subordinates' movements?"
Sun Daoning didn't hide it and said directly: "The executioners in the Imperial Prison torture prisoners without a sense of proportion. Seeing that the confession hasn't been obtained, but the prisoner is about to die, they begged the Heavenly Prison. Chen Guanlou reported this to the Ministry of Justice at the first opportunity, so this official knows their movements."
"So that's it. In this way, Medical Official Mu is worthy of the name, and his medical skills are indeed superb."
"If it weren't for this, His Majesty wouldn't have thought of Medical Official Mu. A good doctor is hard to find, and I hope Eunuch Wang will take care of him for this official's sake after Medical Official Mu comes."
Sun Daoning was clear in his heart that Medical Official Mu was Chen Guanlou's treasure, and if there was any loss, he didn't know what the one surnamed Chen would do.
He had to find a way to ensure Medical Official Mu's safety.
After all, the imperial physicians were helpless against the illness, and Medical Official Mu might not really be able to solve it. If the group of imperial physicians were not particular and pushed the responsibility to Medical Official Mu, what would happen?
"Minister Sun, rest assured, Medical Official Mu is treating His Majesty. No matter what, I will protect him." Wang Defa was also righteous and made a promise.
"That would be best!"
Chen Guanlou slept very well.
But he was a warrior after all, and if there was any movement outside, he would wake up.
The gatekeeper brought the person to him, and when he saw it, it was actually a eunuch from the palace, holding Sun Daoning's name card, inviting Medical Official Mu to enter the palace immediately. There was an urgent patient who needed diagnosis and treatment.
Medical Official Mu saw the eunuch from the palace in the middle of the night, and his heart jumped to his throat, almost scared to death.
He was anxious and panicked: "My lord, you must help this old man. This old man dares not follow them into the palace alone. I'm afraid I won't return!"
He even developed a stress response.
Chen Guanlou soothed him: "Those palace servants are holding Minister Sun's name card, obviously Minister Sun is also in the palace. With him there, your safety is definitely guaranteed."
"My lord, this old man tells the truth, this old man doesn't believe Minister Sun has the ability to protect people. This old man only trusts my lord."
Chen Guanlou frowned: "What do you want me to do?"
"Can my lord accompany me into the palace?" Medical Official Mu also knew his request was a bit excessive, his eyes slightly uneasy. But he was really afraid of death, especially being invited into the palace by breaking into the Heavenly Prison in the middle of the night; in this situation, there was an 80% probability he wouldn't return.
He didn't want to die!
The only life-saving move he could think of was to have Chen Guanlou accompany him.
He didn't trust anyone else.
Don't look at Sun Daoning as the Minister of Justice; when those officials and eunuchs really want to slaughter him, the one surnamed Sun wouldn't even dare to fart.
He is not in officialdom, but he is clear about the set of officialdom. Once he enters the palace, he is cannon fodder, a scapegoat. If he cures the person, everything is easy to say. If he doesn't cure the person, and there is a long or short, the first one to sell him out will be the group of grandsons in the Taiyi Academy.
Chen Guanlou's official position is humble, but the person is not humble; on the contrary, he is quite capable. Sometimes, the words he says are more useful than Minister Sun's words.
"Begging my lord to save my life!" Medical Official Mu went all out, clinging to Chen Guanlou.
Since it has come to this, what can Chen Guanlou do.
He couldn't just watch Medical Official Mu go to his death.
Old treasure, old treasure, Medical Official Mu is the old treasure of the Heavenly Prison, his heart's flesh. He couldn't bear to let the other party go to his death.
Moreover, Su Rongrong married into the Mu family. If Medical Official Mu has a long or short, the Mu family and Su Rongrong will also be implicated.
"Alright, I will accompany you into the palace."
Several eunuchs:...
They wanted to block Chen Guanlou, but thought about it, they were all Minister Sun's people. Leave the problem for Minister Sun to solve.
Just like this, Chen Guanlou accompanied Medical Official Mu and followed several eunuchs into the palace overnight.
All the way in a hurry, not stopping for a moment.
From the eunuchs' attitude, it could be seen that the person who was sick had a very precious status, and it was even possible... and the condition was very urgent. Otherwise, they wouldn't have knocked open the palace gate in the middle of the night.
Under normal circumstances, once the palace gate is closed, until the time, without several heavyweight figures jointly guaranteeing, the palace gate would never be opened.
Chen Guanlou thought a lot, linked to the recent rumors that Emperor Jian Shi was ill, and whispered to remind Medical Official Mu: "Later, no matter who you see, no matter who the sick person is, don't panic. Just diagnose and treat normally! Also, you must let the people from the Taiyi Academy guard on the side, and let the eunuchs supervise. Absolutely don't leave any handle for the people from the Taiyi Academy!"
"My lord's meaning is?"
"The sick person is very likely the Emperor." ===== CHAPTER 1544 =====
