After a long time, the old emperor said in a hoarse voice: "Yun Wei, you get up and look at the twists and turns of your uncles." ”

Zhu Yunwen was just about to stand up, and a fold was thrown in front of him, he quickly opened the fold, looked at it, and couldn't help but close his eyes, the situation was worse than he imagined, but he didn't have time to think about it, and knelt down and said: "Grandpa Huang should take care of his body, Uncle Yan Wang is seriously ill, and his grandson will go to meet Uncle Wang and take him to the palace to recuperate, and his grandson believes that Uncle Wang will get better." ”

The old emperor coughed, looked at his grandson carefully, and found that Zhu Yunwen was in very poor spirits, with a sad face and tears in his eyes, and couldn't help but soften his heart, and said, "Okay, I asked Changfu to accompany you, go and come back quickly." ”

After Zhu Yunwen bowed three times and knocked nine times, he took the order out, and Changfu hurriedly followed.

Zhu Yunwen quickly ran out of the noon gate, mounted his mount, and took the guards to ride away. Seeing the imperial grandson galloping with his guards outside the window, the people of the six yamen couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what was going on. After a while, the imperial grandson's chariots and chariots also rushed out and followed the imperial grandson. Interested people began to run to the General Administration, and after a while, the six yamen opened the pot, something big happened, and King Yan was possessed by his ancestors.

Since the Duke of Wei and the Founding Duke have left Beijing, the only Duke of Cao in Beijing is Li Jinglong, who is in charge of the Governor's Mansion of the Left Army, at this time he is staring at the imperial grandson's chariot and car with a teacup, and he has some doubts in his heart, the imperial grandson hurriedly went out, indicating that there is an emergency, but what kind of thing will be urgent to this extent? And he also dispatched the chariot and the chariot, which is even more strange, riding a horse by himself, letting the chariot and chariot follow, it seems that it is not the style of the emperor's grandson. He hurriedly sent someone out to inquire, and reported from someone after a while that it was King Yan who was sick, which was a bit unusual. Li Jinglong twisted his beard, keenly feeling that there was going to be a big storm in the imperial court, and he had to be prepared. To tell the truth, he is a little jealous of Xu Huizu and Chang Sheng, since His Royal Highness succeeded to the throne, he doesn't care much about himself, he is a little inexplicable, I don't know where he offended His Royal Highness, he and the imperial grandson are still relatives, they have often met since childhood, and they don't know how many times closer than Xu Huizu and Chang Sheng. Now that these two people are not in the capital, it's up to me, and I want His Highness to understand who is more capable.

Zhu Yunwen hurried up, about an hour later, arrived at the Xiaguan wharf on the south bank of the Yangtze River, at this time it was almost dusk, there were no more passenger boats on the river, and the wharf was also empty, deserted, no longer noisy during the day. Zhu Yunwen rode on the horse, looking at the turbulent Yangtze River in front of him, and looked far away, but it was only a gray patch, and he couldn't see anything clearly. This is the Yangtze River, which is a natural barrier to protect the Jingshi, but in later generations, Zhu Di easily broke through here, drank the Ma Jingshi, and ended up incognito and did not dare to show up for the rest of his life. Thinking of this, Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but silently clench his fists, he worked so hard and worked so hard to avoid this incident. But he is no longer the previous Zhu Yunwen, I thought I could sit back and relax, but I didn't expect this to happen, although I suspected that King Yan's illness was fake, but I couldn't confirm it, and there was nothing I could do about him. More importantly, the attitude of the emperor's grandfather, today it can be seen that his attitude is a little vague, so he told himself: be cautious, cautious, and cautious, "think about the emperor's worries".

Zhu Yunwen looked around and found that there was a naval battalion more than a mile to the east, with nearly fifty ships moored. Zhu Yunwen pointed and said, "Chief Administrator, is this the Sailor Battalion?" ”

"Yes, Your Highness, this is the camp of the right guard of the sailor."

"Okay, Liu Zhen, you take Gu's seal letter to the right guard camp of the Navy Division, and let the commander come over to see Gu."

Not long after, a sound of horses' hooves sounded, and an officer rushed over with a few soldiers, and when he arrived about ten zhang in front of Zhu Yunwen, he rolled the saddle and dismounted, and ran to Zhu Yunwen and knelt down on his knees: "Zhang Rong, the commander of the right guard of the navy, see His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness Chitose, Chitose, Chitose." ”

Zhu Yunwen dismounted and helped Zhang Rong up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "General Zhang, there is something to take to Yangzhou by boat today, can you arrange it?" ”

Zhang Rong said: "Your Highness, when Your Highness summoned me just now, the last general was arranging a ship to go to Yangzhou, and it was a messenger, a few eunuchs, and a eunuch doctor. ”

"Oh," Zhu Yunwen patted his head and said, "Lone understands, Lone and them all the way, you arrange us together." ”

"Yes, Your Highness, the last general will go and make arrangements, please go to the camp to rest, and set sail in a quarter of an hour."

"Okay, hard work General Zhang."

Zhang Rong led Zhu Yunwen and his party to the camp, and then resigned to make arrangements.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhu Yunwen and his party got on a boat, which was divided into three layers. Zhang Rong led Zhu Yunwen to the cabin on the top floor, where the view was wide, and the surrounding scenes could be seen at a glance, but it was late, and the scenery in the distance was a little gray.

Zhang Rong saluted Zhu Yunwen and said: "Your Highness, this ship is the last ship to travel, it is well maintained, and the time is in a hurry, so I can only let His Highness take this ship to Yangzhou." ”

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said: "General Zhang, it's already good, this time the lonely trip is more urgent, I didn't inform you earlier, and it's already dark, and I asked the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division to set sail to send Gu across the river, and Gu was a little reluctant not to go." Today's trip will be supplied according to wartime standards, and when the time comes, you will report it and the orphan will approve it. ”

"Your Highness."

When he had nothing to do, Zhu Yunwen chatted with Zhang Rong about the structure of the warship and the mode and example of water warfare, and found that this Zhang Rong knew everything about water warfare, and even had a certain understanding of naval warfare, so he couldn't help but be surprised: "General Zhang, you are a great talent in water warfare, where did you learn these things?" ”

"Your Highness, it was taught by my father."

"Lingzun is?"

"My father's voyager."

"Navigation Hou, oh, Navigation Hou, by the way, Lone knows, is it Navigation Hou Zhang He?"

"Yes, it's my father."

"Very good, the tiger father has no dogs, the navigation marquis has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and he has repeatedly broken the widows, and he is the hero of the Ming Dynasty."

"Thank Your Highness, if Your Highness evaluates it like this, my father Jiuquan will also thank the emperor." Zhang Rong knelt on the ground and kowtowed to thank him.

"Get up, get up," Zhu Yunwen helped Zhang Rong up and said: "General Zhang, the Japanese are always the henchmen of the Ming Dynasty, are you willing to cross the ocean in the future and exterminate the Japanese invaders?" ”

"The last general is willing. Destroy the Japanese and the Kou, and the end will not give up. Zhang Rong replied loudly.

"Good, good." Zhu Yunwen felt that he didn't gain anything from coming out this time, this Zhang Rong is a talent and worth reusing.

......

After Zhang Rong went down, Zhu Yunwen lay down, looked at the plank, but couldn't sleep, down the river, there were still two hours to reach Yangzhou, King Yan and several other uncles were there......
