In the evening, Emperor Hongzhi was wearing glasses in the Shangshu room of the Ganqing Palace in the capital.

Grab and Zha. He is an extremely hardworking person, perhaps perhaps worse than the founding Comrade Zhu. Among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, he should be able to rank among the top three. Well, there is also Emperor Chongzhen, the king of the fallen country. He is also an extremely hardworking master. The three of them are the most hardworking emperors of the Ming Dynasty.

"Oh~"

Hongzhi sighed, took off his glasses, closed his eyes and rubbed them slightly.

"Your Majesty, it's not too late to take a break, drink some ginseng soup, and then review the memorials."

When Xiao Jing saw it, he quickly said considerately.

"My body is getting worse day by day. In the past, I wouldn't be tired at all when I read this melody. Now I'm so tired after reading this melody, especially my eyes are sore and uncomfortable."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed.

In the past two years, he suddenly felt that he had grown much older, his health was not as good as before, and his mental state was far worse. He felt that reading memorials and other things were very difficult.

"Your Majesty, you are overworking and need to combine work and rest, pay attention to your cultivation. The dragon body is important."

Xiao Jing carefully massaged Emperor Hongzhi's back and shoulders, and persuaded him.

"I also know that if you just sit in this position for a day, you have to shoulder its responsibilities."

"Everyone in the world says it's good to be an emperor, but who knows that the emperor's responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai? There are thousands of people involved in this memorial. How can I slack off?"

"I naturally have to work harder to pass the country of this ancestor into my hands."

Emperor Hongzhi closed his eyes and said with a helpless smile.

It is really not easy to be an emperor, especially if you want to be an emperor with great potential, it will be even more tiring.

"Your Majesty has done well enough. Whether it is civil and military achievements, or other aspects, ancient and modern, both at home and abroad, your Majesty is at the forefront, and he is definitely the eternal emperor who is comparable to the Qin Emperor and Han Wu."

Xiao Jing flattered Emperor Hongzhi at the right time.

Being the emperor's secretary is not an easy task. There are many things to do, but the most important thing is to gain the emperor's trust and please the emperor.

"I never thought of becoming the emperor of the ages, but just wanted to manage the country of this ancestor better. As an emperor, I wanted the people of the world to have enough food and wear warm clothes. This is enough. As for those false names, they will be judged by their descendants."

Emperor Hongzhi shook his head slightly. He had never thought about these things, just wanted to be a good emperor, a good father, and a good husband, that's all.

Growing up in a special environment since childhood has had a huge impact on Emperor Hongzhi. On the one hand, he developed a kind heart and was easily grateful. If there were no small eunuchs in the palace, the little palace maids would hide him and raise him with a bit of food and a little clothing, he would not have been the case with Emperor Hongzhi.

So he has a grateful heart and is very kind, because he has seen the ugliest side of the human world and feels the warmest and brightest side of the human world.

He is a good husband, and that is because he has seen many tragic events in the harem caused by his father, Emperor Xianzong of Ming Dynasty, that even Emperor Hongzhi's biological mother died at the hands of Concubine Wan.

He was a good father, and that was because he lacked fatherly love since childhood. Because Emperor Xianzong of Ming Dynasty favored Concubine Wan, he lacked care for Emperor Hongzhi and others.

This is Emperor Hongzhi, the most special emperor in history.

When Xiao Jing heard Emperor Hongzhi's words, he was slightly silent. He naturally knew the most about Emperor Hongzhi. This was indeed what Emperor Hongzhi said in his heart.

While rubbing Emperor Hongzhi's shoulders, he looked at the white hair on Emperor Hongzhi's head. He was only in his thirties. Emperor Hongzhi's physical condition was so bad. He was gray and hungry. He really couldn't believe that this would be a person in his thirties.

"Your Majesty, you have been overworked over the past few years. The white hair on your head has already…"

Speaking of this, Xiao Jing couldn't help but shed tears.

Although he was a servant of Emperor Hongzhi, Emperor Hongzhi was the one he grew up with since childhood and followed him. When he looked at Emperor Hongzhi, he felt like he was looking at his own children.

Emperor Hongzhi had white hair, which made Xiao Jing very uncomfortable.

"It's just a little gray hair, nothing."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said.

"Your Majesty, you are not just a little gray-haired. Your appetite has been getting smaller and smaller in the past two years. Look, you are so thin."

"How can this continue?"

Xiao Jing said almost crying.

"Oh, I'm old."

"Why are you crying? People have time to grow old, but aren't they all like this when they grow old?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Xiao Jing and said.

"Your Majesty, you are only in your thirties. How can a person in his thirties be considered old?"

Xiao Jing said: "You are caused by state hard work. In addition, Your Majesty, you have too little appetite. If you eat too little, how can a person's health be good?"

"But I really can't eat anything and have no appetite for anything."

The Hongzhi throne said helplessly.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the doctors in the Ming Medical College established by Liu Jinxin are extremely skilled in medical skills, and they are also very good at treating various difficult and complicated diseases, specializing in researching various new drugs and treatment methods, especially in surgical operations."

"This time in the Western Expedition, Liu Jin brought many doctors from the Ming Medical College to the army. Many injuries that were difficult to treat were cured in the past."

"They have developed a method of blood transfusion and have cured many people through surgery. They are now very famous in Beijing, and there are people from all over the country who come to see the doctor."

"Or what if we disguise ourselves tomorrow and go to Daming Medical College to take a look and check our health."

Xiao Jing remembered the incident of Daming Medical College published in the Daming Morning News, and also read the Daming Medical Journal, and learned a lot of medical knowledge and content from the Daming Medical Journal.

"Didn't this imperial doctor often diagnose me? Are the doctors outside even more powerful than imperial doctors?"

Emperor Hongzhi thought about it and said.

"Your Majesty, I think some of the things mentioned in the Journal of Daming Medical is very reasonable. This doctor is actually very particular about the experience of treating diseases."

"The imperial doctors in the palace have been passed down from generation to generation, and their medical skills may not be bad, but because the imperial doctors only treat the nobles in the palace, their medical experience may not be as good as those of the folk doctors."

"I'll go and take a look, and it won't take much time. I'll go out for a walk and relax."

Xiao Jing also replied quickly.

"Okay, then I'll go and have a look tomorrow. Anyway, I haven't left the palace for a while and I'm just about to go out and have a look."

Emperor Hongzhi thought about it and nodded, and went to take a try and took a look, and also left the palace for a walk.

I know my own body best. Although Emperor Hongzhi did not have any major problems, his appetite was not good. He ate too little and was very thin. In addition, he worked hard in state affairs and aging before he got old.

But the imperial doctors in the palace could not see any situation, so they could only constantly prescribe some prescriptions for Emperor Hongzhi to nourish the body, ginseng soup, etc. for Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi has taken a lot of these things, but his body is still getting worse day by day. A few years ago, Emperor Hongzhi was superstitious about the art of elixirs, and people have practiced elixirs in the palace to nourish the body, hoping to live longer.

However, because of the Li Guang case, Emperor Hongzhi saw clearly these elixir techniques, Buddhist and Taoist health techniques, and so on, so he reawakened Emperor Hongzhi who worked hard to govern, making him more diligent than before. This is also an important reason why his health is getting worse and worse, and his work intensity is too high.

This shows that Emperor Hongzhi is actually very clear about his physical condition, and he also tried to make himself healthier, but it was useless.

Now that he heard Xiao Jing's words, Emperor Hongzhi also had a try-and-see attitude. Anyway, he was going out of the palace to take a walk and relax.

"What are the prince busy with today?"

Soon, Emperor Hongzhi thought of Zhu Houzhao again.

His health is getting worse day by day. Sooner or later, he will hand over the country to Zhu Houzhao, so he is extremely concerned about the prince and asks about the prince every day.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince went to see the top scholar parade with Liu Jin today. He felt that your Majesty, you worked hard on state affairs every day, and felt that the officials in the court were in vain and had nothing to do, so a large number of memorials overwhelmed His Majesty."

"So he felt that a complete examination system should be formulated for officials to urge officials in the world to share His Majesty's worries and solve his problems, so that His Majesty can be easier."

Xiao Jing thought about it and said quickly.

"What does this child know? If the emperor doesn't work hard on state affairs, can he still work hard on it?"

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he immediately laughed happily. Through Xiao Jing's words, he knew that Zhu Houzhao was an extremely filial child, which made him feel very relieved.

Since ancient times, filial piety has been indispensable in all dynasties and the prince is filial, which sets an example for the people of the world, which makes Emperor Hongzhi very happy.

"He must have asked Liu Jin for advice?"

Then he was also a question. He was still very clear about how much ink there was in Zhu Houzhao's belly. He must have asked Liu Jin for some questions and knowledge.

"Yes, your Majesty."

Xiao Jing nodded and said.

"What did Liu Jin say?"

"This Liu Jin is too lazy. Every time he is given a holiday, he must be willing to come back to court after he has finished his rest."

Speaking of Liu Jin, Emperor Hongzhi smiled again. This was the first time he had met such a lazy minister.

However, Liu Jin had real talents and knowledge, and was also a truly capable minister in governing the country. He could govern the country with literature and martial arts could expand territory. Looking at the entire court and the country, it seems that there is only one such minister, Wang Shouren.

Wang Shouren has now truly entered the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi. He took the same exam as Liu Jin. He started his official career in the same year. He also fought in the north and north. He was also full of knowledge and talent. He also allowed Emperor Hongzhi to see another talent who was not inferior to Liu Jin.

"Liu Jin said that the examination system has existed since ancient times, so we can add more references and think and change it based on the actual situation of the Ming Dynasty. He put forward several key points."

Xiao Jing thought about it and began to report in detail to Emperor Hongzhi about the conversation between Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao.

"Pragmatic, not sloppy?"

"Is this virtue very weak?"

Emperor Hongzhi listened carefully. He was very concerned about Liu Jin's matters. He listened very seriously when he heard Liu Jin's point of examination system.

“Does the evaluation criteria of Germany differ from each other?”

"But if this person is not even good at virtue, even if he has the strongest ability, he will probably be unfavorable to the people if he is an official."
