Chapter 61: Call Me Zhang Daoye
Zhang Weizhao nodded silently. Chen Youcong walked forward, Zhang Weizhao walked beside him, and Feng Hao followed a few steps away.
All three of them did not speak, but walked in silence. I could only hear the sound of a cold wind blowing through the tunnel.
At the end of the road, it is the northwest corner of the Forbidden City. There is an acre square open space here, planted with pines and cypresses and some flowers and plants. By this time, the flowers and plants had long since withered, and only the pines and cypresses were still standing in the cold wind of the night. Standing here and looking west, there is the Inner Peace Hall. Looking to the north, it is the nameless mansion where the Cui family lived after the abolition.
Chen Youcong stood under a pine tree and looked out at the Inner Comfort Hall. Zhang Weizhao stood with him.
"Ever since I started remembering the past, I've often dreamed of being in the hall. There was my mother, and a few other people, who were very kind to me, giving me food and games. The dream was very real, but when I woke up, it became blurry. Chen Youcong's voice was low.
"Who are they?"
Chen Youcong shook his head regretfully: "I don't remember." ”
"That's not the time to remember." Zhang Weizhao said.
"Today's palace banquet, all the concubines with children are present. If my mother were alive, I would celebrate the reunion with my grandmother and father......."
"Maybe." Zhang Weizhao replied.
"Concubine Jin ordered someone to bring me the dishes three or four times, saying that I have helped my father share a lot of worries recently, and I have to take care of my body more. I toasted her again and again. They praised her for her love and for my filial piety. There were a lot of emotions suppressed in Chen Youcong's voice.
"In this case, you have no other choice."
"I have other options, such as taking advantage of the unpreparedness of others, drawing swords against each other and breaking off the grudge. But I don't dare, I'm a coward! "Chen Youcong has a lot of anger, and that includes anger towards himself.
Chen Youcong has a similar predicament to Prince Hamlet of Denmark.
"That's not a good option. Risking her life to give birth to the mother who raised you and doesn't want you to ruin yourself in this way. Zhang Weizhao replied.
"That's a good saying!" Suddenly, a gloomy voice came from behind the tree, and it was terrifying to hear in the dark night.
"Who's there?" Feng Hao, who was not far away, grabbed it in a few steps and protected him next to the prince.
A figure turned out from behind the pine tree and continued: "It was the Ji family himself who was willing to be favored by the emperor but did not want to be famous. It was Ji himself who was willing to secretly give birth to a child and raise it with all kinds of difficulties. It was the Ji family who was willing to be poisoned to death and not cause trouble to his son. It was Ji's willingness to die quietly, just get a few incense candles and a few bowls of offerings with the crowd during the New Year's Festival, and there was no need for her son's sacrifice. Anyway, everything was Ji's voluntary. Hey, hey, hey! ”
Chen Youcong stood frozen on the spot, unable to say a word. After all, Zhang Weizhao has not been in the palace for a while, and he has not yet realized who this is, and why he knows so clearly about Chen Youcong and Ji Shufei.
"Duh! Cui's family, what do you want to do so late at night? Speaking wildly, aren't you afraid of the Queen Mother's punishment? "The little eunuch Feng Hao usually doesn't talk much about the master's affairs, but at this time he stood up to protect the prince.
"The lonely man of the deserted house, wandering in this forest every night, and no one cares about me, today you come to question me? I would like to ask you, what is the purpose of this night? Oh, the Queen Mother punished, of course I'm afraid. Of course, she didn't relentless when she punished me. But for Jin Guifei, that's very tolerant! has carried so many lives, isn't she still golden? ”
Feng Hao saw that he couldn't get her to shut up, so he turned around and bowed to the prince and said, "Please Your Highness hurry up and go back to the palace!" ”
Chen Youcong still stood stiff, not moving.
"Hehehehe, hurry up and go back and be your well-behaved prince. Why bother with how your mother was born and how she died? If only you keep your crown prince. ”
Zhang Weizhao had already understood at this time that they had originally met the Cui family who was wandering here. Cui's is obviously not a normal person anymore, and there is no point in arguing with her, but there are some things that must be said clearly, not for her, but for the prince.
"You provoked the prince three or four times like this, just to kill people with a knife and let him avenge you. Don't you feel ashamed to keep talking about the prince's mother, and venting his hatred through a child's thoughts about his mother? ”
"What shame do I have! What shame do I have! "Cui's true purpose was revealed, and suddenly it became even more hideous." My whole life was ruined by her! What's wrong with me wanting revenge? ”
"What your life is like, it has nothing to do with the crown prince. How the prince handles his own affairs has nothing to do with you. No matter how miserable you are, it's your own business. You are the one who has no ability to be responsible for yourself! The one who can't resist is you, not the prince! Don't spill your anger on others, and get rid of it yourself! ”
Cui Shi didn't know when such a sharp-toothed person appeared next to the prince, and blocked all her poisonous fires and couldn't get out. She whined in her mouth, and she was about to pinch Zhang Weizhao's neck with her hand.
Zhang Weizhao dodged sideways, and at the same time picked up the big gun, flew up and kicked Cui's waist, and Cui's immediately stumbled to the ground. Zhang Weizhao grabbed Chen Youcong's wrist and dragged him to turn around and run.
Feng Hao immediately followed.
Chen Youcong was still stunned at first, but Zhang Weizhao had a lot of strength, so he had to run along. Immediately, he also reacted, no longer dragged Zhang Weizhao, and ran with him.
The three of them ran across the mecca, and when they were about to reach Changle Palace, they were in a leeward place to catch their breath.
Feng Hao hadn't spoken to Zhang Weizhao much before, but at this time, while panting, he bowed his hand to Zhang Weizhao: "Miss Zhang, you still have such guts!" The medical skills are so skillful, and the painting is also good, but I didn't expect the skills to be so neat. Admire, admire! I don't know what to call you in the future, it's too wronged to call Miss Zhang, so I might as well call you Aunt Zhang. ”
"Aunt is not for me. You can just call me Zhang Daoye. Zhang Weizhao joked.
Feng Hao was also on the road, and immediately said: "Okay, in the future, you will be Zhang Daoye here." ”
Chen Youcong kept adjusting his breathing and didn't speak, and he laughed when he heard them answer like this. said to Zhang Weizhao: "You were frightened tonight." Go back and rest. ”
Feng Hao thought to himself, I don't think it's this master who is frightened. But he didn't dare to say anything.
Zhang Weizhao intuitively felt that Chen Youcong still accumulated very heavy emotions at this time, and the whole person was in an extremely depressed aura. But it was too late to say anything today, so he only nodded and said, "Okay, you guys should go back to the palace quickly." He simply turned around and walked away.
Chen Youcong saw her enter the gate of Changle Palace, and then continued to walk towards Changning Palace.
Feng Hao couldn't help muttering as he walked: "It seems that Si Wenwen is alone, and he is quite immortal." I didn't expect to scold people so simply, and the shot was unambiguous. ”
"I don't think it's strange at all." Chen Youcong said. He remembered that when he first started playing sand table games with Zhang Weizhao, he asked Zhang Weizhao which sand tool he liked the most, and Zhang Weizhao chose the ferocious dragon.
At about three o'clock in the middle of the night, when Zhang Weizhao was sleeping well, he suddenly heard a low and rapid knock on the door. Zhang Weizhao put on his clothes and asked in a low voice, "Who is it?" ”
Someone lowered his voice and said, "Master Dao, come and take a look." The prince had a high fever and couldn't go away. It was Feng Hao, who was already faintly crying.
"Wait a minute." Zhang Weizhao quickly put on his clothes, put on the fox fur sent by Feng Hao last night, and brought the medicine box. Go out and walk forward with Feng Hao.
When passing by the Queen Mother's dormitory, I saw Xiangyu standing outside the hall waving to them. Zhang Weizhao followed Xiangyu into the dormitory. There was only one lamp lit in the dormitory, and the Queen Mother sat on the bed with her arms in her arms, her face full of anxiety and worry. Seeing Zhang Weizhao coming, the Queen Mother said: "The prince has just begun to participate in political affairs, and if the news of his illness comes out at this time, I am afraid it will be very unfavorable to him." So do everything you can to heal him! And we must strictly abide by the news and not spread it! Do you understand? ”
"I understand!"
"Go ahead! Is there any news for Feng Hao and them to report as soon as possible. ”
Zhang Weizhao took the order and left.
On the way, Zhang Weizhao asked Feng Hao when he found out that Chen Youcong had a fever. Feng Hao replied that when he returned to the palace at night, the prince lay down after washing. According to the little eunuch on duty tonight, the prince tossed and turned and fell asleep very late. In the middle of the night, the prince asked for water to drink, and he brought the water in, but found that the prince's hand holding the teacup was trembling, and when he took the teacup, he touched the prince's hand, and was startled by the hot temperature. He asked the prince if he was uncomfortable and if he wanted to invite a doctor, but the prince said no, and asked him to quietly call Feng Hao in.
The prince ordered Feng Hao to go to Changle Palace quietly and ask Zhang Weizhao to come to see him, and be sure not to alarm others.
But the prince is seriously ill, how dare the palace maid on night in Changle Palace hide it from the queen mother? So there was the scene where the Queen Mother summoned Zhang Weizhao to tell him.
Between the words, Zhang Weizhao had already followed Feng Hao to the prince's bedroom. Wen Zhu was standing in front of the prince's bed.
The crown prince burned even more than Feng Hao when he went out, his eyes were empty, and his cheeks were red.
Zhang Weizhao sat on his pedal in front of the bed, put his fingers on his wrist to check the pulse, and opened his eyelids, allowing him to stick his tongue out to look.
Feng Hao was very anxious on the side, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "How is His Royal Highness the Prince?" Is it cold? ”
Zhang Weizhao pondered for a long time, and said to Feng Hao: "Please go out with Wenzhu for a while, is it okay?" ”
Chen Youcong did not have symptoms of cold and cold, nor did he have any other symptoms. His high fever was caused by emotions. In modern times, there is a term for this condition, which is psychosomatic, that is, physical symptoms that occur due to the influence of psychological factors.
When a person has strong emotions, such as anxiety, anger, and grief, and there is no way to express them, or even the person himself is denying these emotions, the emotions will be presented through the body.
