"this……"

The imperial physician's forehead was covered with cold sweat in an instant. He opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.

Seeing the Imperial Doctor without saying a word, Emperor Jiajing seemed to lose his energy all at once and murmured in a low voice:

"Is this the last nostalgia that Taoist ancestor gave me? Let me look back on my life. I have practiced Taoism for the rest of my life, but I can't escape this day in the end."

The cold sweat from the imperial physician's forehead kept flowing down, but he did not dare to see Emperor Jiajing or speak.

"It's a person who will die!" Emperor Jiajing closed his eyes and said for a while: "I'm still alone after all!"

In fact, how could he not know about Emperor Jiajing’s own physical condition?

It's just that one numbs himself and is unwilling to face reality.

This time, after living it again, Emperor Jiajing seemed to have figured out many things. He turned his head slowly and looked at the imperial physician and said:

"Tell me the truth, how long can I live?"

The imperial physician immediately sweated like a pulp. Which imperial physician dared to predict such a thing?

And to predict such things for the emperor?

What is the difference between this and seeking death?

"Don't be afraid!" Emperor Jiajing whispered: "There are only you and I, the king and the minister here. As long as no third person knows about this, I will not blame you."

The imperial doctor wiped his sweat and gave him another courage. He didn't dare to do such a thing, so he whispered:

"Your Majesty, I don't have enough medical skills to see."

Emperor Jiajing looked at the imperial physician for a while, and then said lightly:

"Then you recommend me one that can be seen, otherwise you will tell me about it for a while."

The imperial physician shivered all over and almost collapsed on the ground. His heart turned and he finally bit his teeth and said:

"Maybe, only Li Shizhen can see it."

"Doctor Li?" Emperor Jiajing nodded and said, "You retreat, you are not allowed to tell what happened today."

"I dare not."

"Go and call Huang Jin in."

"yes!"

The imperial physician retreated, and soon Huang Jin walked in.

"His Majesty."

"Is Li Shizhen still in Luo Xin's mansion?"

"It should be still here, I haven't heard of leaving."

"Go and bring Li Shizhen to the next level."

"yes!"

About half an hour later, Li Shizhen walked into Emperor Jiajing's bedroom with a small medicine box. Huang Jin retreated and closed the door. Only Li Shizhen and Emperor Jiajing were left in the room.

Before Li Shizhen could bow to him, Emperor Jiajing said, "Doctor Li, no need to be vain."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Go and move a brocade stool and sit next to me."

Li Shizhen put down the medicine box, walked to the corner of the wall and moved a brocade stool to the bed. Without being polite, he sat down. Emperor Jiajing looked at Li Shizhen and said:

"Doctor Li, I know that you are different from those in the Imperial Hospital. I invite you here today, I really want to get a truth from you."

"Please speak with your Majesty."

"How long can I live?"

Li Shizhen's expression moved, and finally stretched out his finger to take the pulse of Emperor Jiajing. He had seen Emperor Jiajing's body many times and knew very well about Emperor Jiajing's body, so just a few times to take the pulse, he had a comprehensive understanding of Emperor Jiajing in his heart.

"How is it?" A hint of nervousness appeared in Emperor Jiajing's eyes.

Li Shizhen said silently for a moment: "If Your Majesty stops taking the elixir and calms down, he may be able to live for another half a year."

"Maybe half a year..." Emperor Jiajing's face showed disappointment: "What if he continues to take the elixir?"

"Maybe it won't be three months."

"In other words, no matter what I do, at most half a year's lifespan is left."

"Yes!" Li Shizhen nodded in a blank expression.

Emperor Jiajing was silent for a moment and said, "Don't spread the conversation between you and me today."

"The grass people understand."

"Go down."

"The grass-roots retreat!"

Li Shizhen retreated, and only Emperor Jiajing was left in the room. He looked at the ceiling with a little nonchalantly, and sighed for a while.

"After all, I can't escape that day!"

Dawn.

Huang Jin took Emperor Jiajing to wash and dress, then took out a elixir and sent it to Emperor Jiajing.

Emperor Jiajing looked at the elixir in Huang Jin's hand, and Li Shizhen's words last night sounded in his ears.

If you eat elixir, you can only live for three months. If you don’t eat elixir, you can live for half a year if you are calm and conditioned.

Is there any difference between three months and six months?

Emperor Jiajing looked at the elixir in Huang Jin's hand in a daze. When Emperor Jiajing was stunned, Huang Jin called out softly:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Emperor Jiajing came back to his senses and said softly: "Put up the elixir and use Li Shizhen's prescription to make medicine for me."

Huang Jin's tears flowed down and he kept saying, "It's good to boil the medicine, it's good to boil the medicine!"

He hurriedly put the elixir into the box and hurried out. Looking at Huang Jin's disappearing back, Emperor Jiajing's eyes appeared at a loss.

"Is it because I was wrong? This seeking immortality is simply illusory?"

More than half an hour later, he saw Huang Jin walking in with a jade bowl carefully.

"Your Majesty, I've taken the medicine."

"Yeah!" Emperor Jiajing responded lightly.

Huang Jin whispered while feeding Emperor Jiajing to take medicine:

"Your Majesty, I have gone to Prince Yu's Mansion and have not had time to report to Your Majesty."

Emperor Jiajing nodded while drinking medicine and signaled Huang Jin to continue. Huang Jin said:

"His Highness Yu read the memorial, then cursed with a traitor, and then fainted."

Emperor Jiajing did not say anything until he finished drinking a bowl of medicine, and did not say a word. Huang Jin did not dare to ask again and ordered the palace maid to serve breakfast. Emperor Jiajing did not take a few bites, so he waved his hand and asked someone to take it down. Huang Jin brought tea to Emperor Jiajing himself. Emperor Jiajing took the tea, took a sip, and said softly:

"How did Luo Xin investigate?"

"It is said that the people from the Cabinet and the Six Ministry have completed the investigation, and those people have also written self-defense letters."

"What did Luo Xin say?"

"He said that the cabinet and the Sixth Ministry officials should not be clear about blocking the door, and the Ming Dynasty needs to operate normally. It is recommended that the cabinet and the Sixth Ministry officials be put back first."

"What is Luo Xin doing now?"

"The officials who were arrested in the prison."

"What happened to Hai Rui when you asked you to check? It's really like the second-handed guy Luo Xin said?"

"It's not just a fool!" Huang Jin smiled bitterly: "This person is simply a hedgehog. No matter where he goes to be an official, he has no friends. Not to mention a friend, no one is willing to work with him."

Emperor Jiajing was stunned, but the anger in his heart subsided a lot.

"It seems that he makes me feel more than just uncomfortable!"

"This kind of person is the stone in the pit, smelly and hard." Huang Jin said.

Emperor Jiajing was silent. In fact, Emperor Jiajing had already understood Hai Rui at this time. Although Emperor Jiajing had never seen Hai Rui, he was able to understand Hai Rui through some small things reported by Huang Jin.
