Seeing Zhu Di waving his sword and rushing out, Liu Zhen immediately blocked Zhu Yunwen behind him and shouted: "Escort." But Liu Zhen only saw Zhang Rong running desperately this way, Changfu followed behind panting, followed by King Yan's attendants, and several princes, but King Yan rushed over regardless of it, everything was too late.

At this moment, there were suddenly two more people in front of Liu Zhen, and when they looked at it, it turned out to be His Royal Highness's personal guards, Taoist Yuan Zhen and Yuan Jing of Wudang Mountain. These two Taoist priests are generally far away from Zhu Yunwen, but at this time, they appeared in front of Liu Zhen like ghosts, Yuan Zhen grabbed Zhu Yunwen and Liu Zhen with both hands and moved to the left, Yuan Jing's long sword was like electricity, and he slashed sideways towards Zhu Di's wrist, and shouted: "Lord Wang, stand back." But Zhu Di didn't dodge at all, his wrist was reversed, and instead he slashed down at Yuan Jing. Yuan Jing had no choice but to retreat, but fortunately Yuan Zhen had already dragged Zhu Yunwen away, otherwise this sword would have to fall on Zhu Yunwen.

For a while, Zhu Di gave up defense and attacked frantically, but Yuan Jing could only dodge step by step. But fortunately, they bought time, and everyone rushed up to protect Zhu Yunwen. Zhu Yunwen saw that it was safe, so he said loudly: "Everyone, pay attention, don't hurt Uncle Wang." ”

At this time, eight armor soldiers with shields came up from behind and surrounded Yuan Jing and Zhu Di. Yuan Zhen shouted from behind: "Yuan Jing, come out quickly." Yuan Jing flashed out in response, and eight armorers surrounded Zhu Di, Zhu Di's eyes were blood-red, and a sword was slashed on the shield, and the armor soldiers did not resist, but just formed a circle, blocking Zhu Di, waiting for Zhu Di to be exhausted.

Zhu Di slashed dozens of times, seemed to be awake, and knelt down to look at the sky: "Grandpa, Di'er did her best." When the people around saw Zhu Di kneeling, they hurriedly dodged away, and the encirclement naturally dispersed. But Zhu Di did not step forward, but retreated to the side of the boat, turned over, and jumped into the Yangtze River with a "plop".

Everyone was shocked and rushed to the side of the boat, Zhu Yunwen shouted: "Zhang Rong, go down and save Uncle Wang, hurry." ”

Zhang Rong took off his armor in response and was about to go down, but Changfu went to stop him and said, "Send someone down to rescue and protect Your Highness." ”

Zhang Rong came to his senses and looked at Zhu Yunwen, but found that a eunuch rushed up from behind and shouted: "I want to avenge the prince!" Suddenly pushed Zhu Yunwen down the Yangtze River, and then jumped down himself.

This time it was even more chaotic, Zhang Rong jumped down directly, poked his head out of the river, looked around, and found that Zhu Yunwen was up and down in the water, seemed to lose consciousness, and swam towards Zhu Yunwen in a hurry. chased for more than 30 zhang before catching up with Zhu Yunwen, holding up his head and shouting: "Your Highness, here, come here." After a while, several of his guards swam over to help Zhu Yunwen, and at this time, the sentinel boat in the water had already sailed over and rescued several people on board.

After getting on the boat, Zhang Rong and others hurriedly gave Zhu Yunwen water control first aid, and after a while, Zhu Yunwen squirted a few mouthfuls of water, coughed a few times, and woke up.

Zhu Yunwen felt dizzy, and heard someone shouting in his ear: "Your Highness, Your Highness, can you hear me?" Can you hear ME? "Your Highness, wake up, wake up." , He slowly opened his eyes, and what greeted him was Zhang Rong's nervous eyes, Zhang Rong was soaked, and the water droplets in his hair were still flowing slowly, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "Zhang Rong, you saved me?" I thought I was going to die. ”

"No, Your Highness, it's safe now, just now Rong didn't protect it properly, and he deserves death."

Zhu Yunwen coughed a few times and said, "It's okay, isn't it okay now, isn't it okay now, by the way, what about Uncle Yan Wang?" ”

Zhang Rong stood up and looked at it, and said, "Your Highness, the prince has been rescued, and he is on the boat over there." ”

"Okay, the boat rows over, I want to see Uncle Wang's situation."

"Your Highness, no, your clothes are still wet, and when the river breeze blows, you will catch a cold."

"It's okay, it's summer, let's paddle over."

Zhang Rong didn't dare to disobey, so he had to let people row the boat over.

The two boats leaned together, Zhu Yunwen was supported by Zhang Rong, looked at King Yan, and found that King Yan's situation was much better than expected, although his face was a little pale, he looked at Zhu Yunwen with a smile and said, "Yunwen, are you okay?" Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but be stunned......

After a while, the two were sent to the big ship, but this time King Yan's sword was taken away, and there were heavy guards at the door.

After Zhu Yunwen got on the boat, Changfu, Liu Zhen, and the princes knelt down to say hello, but Zhu Yunwen only recruited Changfu and Liu Zhen, and said, "Who pushed Gu into the water just now?" Caught it? ”。

Changfu and Liu Zhen glanced at each other, and were about to speak, but the acting king walked a few steps on his knees and said loudly: "Yun Wei, it's not me, it's not that I'm going to kill you, you must believe me, you must believe me." ”

Zhu Yunwen's face immediately became gloomy, and he said, "Thirteenth uncle, what's the matter?" ”

The acting king just kowtowed on the ground and said, "Yun Wei, you must believe me, it's really not me." ”

Zhu Yunwen was suspicious, and Liu Zhen next to him said softly: "Your Highness, the eunuch who pushed you off the boat was from the palace on behalf of the king, and then he jumped into the river, and no one has found it yet, so I don't know if he is dead or alive." ”

What the? Zhu Yunwen was furious, even if this matter was not instigated by the acting king, it had nothing to do with him, and said: "Come on, take the acting king down, don't contact anyone, and ask in person for a while." In addition, all the entourage of the royal palace were arrested and questioned, and those who resisted were killed. ”

The acting king didn't dare to resist, and was taken down by the guards, and kept shouting: "It's not me, it's not me, Yun Wei must believe me." ”

Zhu Yunwen continued: "General Zhang, you take over all the prince's guards, and those who do not obey will be killed; Chief, during the solitary rest, you are responsible for all affairs, and if you disobey, you will be killed. All the uncles and kings have to stay on this ship, okay? ”

Zhang Rong and Changfu bowed down to receive the order, and then involuntarily looked back at the princes. When the princes saw Zhu Yunwen angry, they didn't dare to speak, and they took the order in unison.

After Zhu Yunwen returned to the cabin, he changed his clothes, felt more comfortable, leaned on the pillow, and said, "Bring the acting king over." ”

When the acting king was brought over, he was a little frightened, he didn't expect Zhu Yunwen to start a fire so terrifying, so as soon as he came in, he kowtowed repeatedly: "Yunwen, please believe me, it's really not my mastermind, that eunuch has a brain problem, it's really not my mastermind, Yunwen, you must believe me." ”

Zhu Yunwen carefully observed the acting king, and then said: "Thirteenth uncle, Yunwen believes in the thirteenth uncle, but can the thirteenth uncle tell me about the situation of the eunuch?" ”

The acting king was a little frightened, and some of the things he said did not match the preamble, and it took Zhu Yunwen a long time to understand what the acting king meant. The eunuch who pushed himself into the water was a Mongol, a Yuan court eunuch captured by the Ming army, and was later assigned to serve by the king. I'm usually very respectful and conscientious, and I don't see any problems, but I didn't expect this to happen this time.

Zhu Yunwen asked a few more times, and found that the king seemed to know very little, and it was estimated that as a prince, he would not pay attention to a lowly eunuch, so he thought for a while and said: "Uncle Thirteen, you can write a letter to talk about this matter in detail, and the imperial grandfather must also want to know." ”

The acting king walked a few steps on his knees and said, "Yun Wei, the thirteenth uncle is afraid that my father will know about this, and my father will be stripped of my skin." ”

Zhu Yunwen smiled bitterly: "Thirteenth uncle, the imperial grandfather will know sooner or later, don't worry, Yunwen will help the thirteenth uncle explain in front of the imperial grandfather." ”

"But ......"

Zhu Yunwen said: "Thirteenth uncle, Yunwen is going to rest, please go back, don't worry too much." ”

The acting king was about to speak, but Liu Zhen stopped him and said, "Lord Wang, please go back, Your Highness has been so frightened and needs to recuperate." ”

"Okay, okay, this king understands, Yun Wei, you have a good rest, you must have a good rest."

......

When Zhang Rong and Changfu came back to report the results of the investigation, Zhu Yunwen felt dizzy, so he let them deal with everything. Everyone called the imperial doctor and found that Zhu Yunwen had a high fever.

When he arrived at the camp of the sailor, it was already night, and Zhu Yunwen's chariot and car driver were still waiting. Originally, Zhu Yunwen's chariot and chariot were prepared for King Yan, but now he was lifted into the car, and King Yan got on the chariot and went to the capital.

Because King Yan and Taisun were both sick, the group walked very slowly. The road was only halfway through, and a large group of Jinyi guards rushed to meet them, led by Song Zhong, the commander of the Jinyi guards. As soon as Jin Yiwei arrived, he immediately took over all the defense work, and also took over all the entourage of the acting king's mansion. Then Song Zhong sent someone to the capital to deliver the letter.

When he arrived in the capital, it was already the hour, but the city gate official immediately opened the city gate to welcome the brigade into the city, but the prince's guards were disarmed by the advance guard of the government army and were taken to the Jinyi guard. When he arrived at the imperial city, the gate of the imperial city opened, and Zhu Yunwen and the princes entered the imperial city. Zhang Rong and the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division were taken to Jinyiwei for questioning.

That night, almost all the Jinyi guards were dispatched, and the sound of horses' hooves woke up the quiet night in the capital at one time. The courtiers couldn't help but sit up, restless, desperate to know what had happened......
