The officials, the prince, and the prince were shocked, and hurriedly knelt down to salute, and even King Yan was supported to salute. Zhu Yunwen quickly ran to King Yan's side, supported King Yan, and said, "Uncle King Yan, how are you?" Yun Wei heard that you were sick, and immediately rushed to come day and night, how are you? Doctor, show Uncle Yan Wang, ...... quickly" Speaking of this, Zhu Yunwen felt that his sleeves had been ripped off, and when he looked back, he saw that it was Liu Zhen, and found that his mouth was full, Zhu Yunwen swept his eyes and found that everyone was still kneeling, so he hurriedly said: "Uncle Wang, all officials, let's be flat, when you are alone, you are in a hurry, everyone should get up." ”

Imperial Physician Zhang, Imperial Physician Wang, and Imperial Physician Liu from the Tai Hospital all rushed over, bowed to Zhu Yunwen and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid that the pulse cannot be diagnosed here, so let's diagnose the pulse in detail after resting." ”

"Okay, Governor Dai, has the uncle's residence been arranged?"

Dai Shuiwen hurriedly ran over and said: "Go back to Your Highness, it has been arranged, quickly help King Yan to get on the sedan chair, quickly, enter the city gate and turn right, a piece of house over there has been cleaned up, hurry up and settle His Royal Highness the Taisun and the princes." Hurry, hurry! As he spoke, Governor Dai began to instruct his subordinates to do things.

Zhu Yunwen smiled, this Dai Zhifu was still an impatient, so he helped King Yan to go inside, and Zhu Jixi, the son of King Jin, also ran over to help King Yan on the other side, and the two helped Zhu Di into a soft sedan chair and accompanied him on the side. When Zhu Yunwen supported Zhu Di, he felt that Zhu Di had indeed lost a lot of weight, and he didn't have much strength on his body, and now it was a little difficult to speak, and when he saw himself, he seemed to be a little frightened, but he was powerless to struggle, his lips squirmed, but he couldn't speak. Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but doubt his thoughts, could it be that King Yan was really sick?

Because there were too many princes in Yangzhou this time, plus Zhu Yunwen, Dai Shuiwen, the prefect of Yangzhou, had to vacate the government to Zhu Yunwen, and at the same time expropriated the mansions of six wealthy families to temporarily give shelter to the six princes and princes.

After settling down, several imperial doctors immediately treated Zhu Di, and Zhu Yunwen waited outside with the prince and the prince. The acting king was a little older and said, "Yun Wei, why are you here?" ”

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said: "Thirteenth uncle, after the imperial grandfather received your recital, he sent the imperial doctor to come and take a look, and after Yunwen knew about it, he took the initiative to greet all the uncles, and at the same time see how the fourth uncle's condition should be diagnosed and treated." ”

The acting king said with a solemn face: "Yun Wei, this matter is a little magical, that day a few of us in the ancestral mausoleum, just after burning incense, suddenly I don't know where to blow a wind, a few of us heard someone talking, but I can't hear it really, just a few vague words, but the fourth brother suddenly vomited blood and fainted. When we wake up, our bodies are good and bad, and when we are good, our minds are very clear, and we have no problem eating and drinking, and we have no problem having fun, but sometimes we say strange things and do strange things. ”

"We went to the doctor to see, some said that they had collided with the gods, and some said that the ancestors had grievances, and they said it through the mouth of the fourth brother. We reported to our father, but the fourth brother's health is getting worse and worse, fortunately, you came and brought the imperial doctor, otherwise the fourth brother's condition, we are all worried that he will not be able to reach the Jingshi. ”

Zhu Yunwen said: "Thirteenth uncle, what strange words did the fourth uncle say?" What strange things were done? ”

The acting king wanted to speak and stopped, and said, "It's nothing. ”

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "Isn't it convenient for Uncle Wang to say it?" ”

"No, I just don't think it's much."

"Okay, cousin Jixi, shall we go over there and talk?"

Zhu Jixi followed Zhu Yunwen to the side, and Zhu Yunwen asked, "Cousin Jixi, what did the fourth uncle say?" What was done? ”

Zhu Jixi shook his head and said, "Your Highness, the minister doesn't dare to say it." ”

"Alas, cousin Jixi, this is very important to me, can you help me?"

Zhu Jixi thought for a while and said: "Your Highness, the fourth uncle gets sick almost every day, and sometimes he reprimands himself as if he is possessed, saying that he, as an elderly vassal king, actually sits back and watches the Zhu family cannibalism without stopping it, cowardly as a mouse, and unworthy of the big responsibility; Then he began to kneel down again, and said, "Although Di'er wants to, he is only a courtier, and he can't do anything." Sometimes he would pull me to talk and say, 'Your Majesty, save me, save me!' Other times he said, 'Your Majesty, I don't dare anymore.' It's something like that, anyway, it freaks me out. ”

Although Zhu Jixi said vaguely, Zhu Yunwen fully understood what he meant, and King Yan's "possession" pointed directly at himself, insinuating that he had killed his uncle and wanted to kill them. In all fairness, even if it is King Yan, Zhu Yunwen does not have the idea of killing him, what he hopes more is to set a rule of generosity and benevolence for the Ming Dynasty, and the vassal king is actually the first step, and the same is true for Wenchen and military generals. But now that King Yan has made such a move, he has pierced this layer of window paper, and these Sai kings have been together for so many days, there must be private communication, so the cracks between the Sai king, the court, and himself are inevitable.

The current predicament makes Zhu Yunwen very helpless, and there is no one around him to discuss this matter, Wang Du went north, and the others who can talk to him are only Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng, and Fang Xiaoru, but he doesn't believe in their abilities very much. Their books are too angry, and they always feel that "reason goes all over the world, and it is difficult to move an inch without reason", maybe there is indeed a heavenly principle, but everyone is a mortal, who dares to say that they have mastered the heavenly principle?

After listening to Zhu Jixi's words, Zhu Yunwen nodded and said, "Cousin, thank you, I have a plan in my heart, let's go and see Uncle Yanwang's condition." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

After a while, the three imperial doctors came out of it and saluted Yun Wei and the princes. Zhu Yunwen waved his hand directly and said, "No courtesy, three imperial doctors, how is the fourth uncle's health?" ”

The three imperial physicians pondered for a while, and finally the imperial physician Wang stood up and said: "After detailed diagnosis and treatment, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun, the princes, the princes, and the ministers have found that the pulse of King Yan's liver is urgent, which should be caused by being frightened recently and being too nervous; The heart pulse is weak and weak, which should be caused by excessive tension; The spleen and stomach are extremely weak, and the eunuchs who serve them often vomit after eating recently; Weight loss, obviously caused by poor eating, lack of sleep, and poor rest......"

As soon as he said this, the anxious Dai Wang said: "Don't talk about this nonsense, the previous doctor also said so, but the medicine they prescribed didn't work, and the fourth brother still vomited and diarrhea, and occasionally said something inexplicable." Let's just say it, what's wrong with the fourth brother? How can it be cured? ”

Doctor Wang pondered for a moment, and whispered: "Lord, Your Highness, King Yan's illness is very complicated, the minister thinks that it is better to solve the problem of his weak body, we will give Yan Wang acupuncture, calm his mind, and then take the ginseng soup, take care of his body, and wait for the prince to be a little better, and then see if there is a better way." ”

Everyone was helpless, so they had to let the three doctors diagnose and treat, the doctor really made an extraordinary move, poured ginseng soup, acupuncture, Yan Wang can fall asleep, the next day can speak, the brothers are overjoyed, Yan Wang and they can say a few words. But every time I saw Zhu Yunwen, I had a relapse of the old disease, obviously afraid and cringinge, Zhu Yunwen had no choice but to comfort him and come out.

Everyone stayed in Yangzhou for two days, and saw that Yan Wang's condition was stabilized, so that people could walk with support. So they discussed it and continued south.

On the Yangtze River along the Zhenjiang River to Nanjing, Zhu Yunwen looked at the turbulent Yangtze River, his heart fluctuated, and he looked at Liu Zhen beside him and said, "Liu Zhen, do you believe in fate?" ”

Liu Zhen glanced at Zhu Yunwen in surprise and said, "Your Highness, the little one believes in fate." But His Highness should not trust fate. ”

"Oh, why?" Zhu Yunwen looked back and asked with a smile.

"Your Royal Highness, you are the prince of the Ming Dynasty, rich from all over the world, and you were born to make fate, how can you believe in fate? Such a lowly person as small can only believe in fate. ”

Hearing Liu Zhen's words, Zhu Yunwen seemed to be shaken and said, "Liu Zhen, did you think of this yourself, or did someone else tell you?" ”

"Your Highness, this is what Master Bocha said."

"Huh?"

"Just two days ago, Master Boqia came to Duanbengong to talk about Buddhism with His Royal Highness, during which the little one asked Master Boqia about fate, and that's what the master said."

"How could Master Bocha talk about loneliness?"

"Hehe, I don't know, the master just mentioned it casually."

casually mentioned it, Zhu Yunwen didn't believe it a little, but he was right, if he believed in fate, what would he still fight for? Waiting for the emperor's grandfather to die, waiting for Zhu Di to call in, isn't it over?

At this moment, several exclamations came from behind the boat: "The prince is sick again." "The prince has killed someone." "The prince is out, hurry up and catch up." ...... Zhu Yunwen looked back, and saw a person with a thin face, wearing a red royal robe, and holding a blood-dripping long sword in his hand, staggering over from the back cabin......
