Chapter 496: Exhausted
After seeing him leave, Zhu Di raised his hand and handed it to Zheng Hedao,
"Sanbao, help me go back to my tent......"
"Okay, my lord, slow down."
Zheng He caught his hand, and with the other hand, he held his master, and the master walked back to the big tent slowly, but just sat down on the bed, Zhu Di said angrily,
"Sanbao, what should I do now? Even Yun Wei regarded me as a thief, if I continued to fight like this, would I really want to kill him in the end......"
"The lord, the fourth master, ......"
Zheng He walked up to his side and said softly,
"Your will is known to the world, and the brethren who follow you know it, and you don't have to conform to the will of all, which is not only impossible, nor necessary, but only if you follow your heart."
"But, I'm really sad......"
Zhu Di's voice was already choked.
Zheng He tentatively stroked his shoulder and said,
"If you're sad, cry, Fourth Master, you just sent Young Master Jing away, didn't you just want to cry happily?"
"Okay, then I'll cry......"
After speaking, he leaned his head on the other party's arms and cried loudly......
When he wrote the last letter between his uncle and nephew to Zhu Yunwen just now, Zhu Di wrote his grief and grievances directly to the other party in the vernacular. In the letter, he recounted his experience after breaking up with his nephew and returning to Beiping from the capital, how he expected his nephew to give him a fair treatment, and how he watched Zhang Yu and them leave him on the battlefield; He also recounted that he really regrets why he didn't accept his nephew's invitation to let him supervise the country, and why he cowardly hid back in Beiping just because he was unwilling to face those civil servants who were hostile to him......
Now all this is caused by the two of us, as the fourth uncle, I just want to meet with you once, have a good talk, and talk about how to make up for the damage caused to the Ming Dynasty because of the willfulness of you and me-
At the end of the letter, Zhu Di gave this advice to his nephew......
However, he probably didn't expect that this letter was not seen by Zhu Yunwen in time, and the reason for this was not because he did not receive the letter, on the contrary, after the county lord of Qingcheng returned to the capital, he entered the palace without delay for a moment and presented Zhu Di's handwritten letter to him.
However, Zhu Yunwen didn't dare to open it-
The letter was held in his hand for a long time, but he did not have the courage to open it, because he was afraid that in the familiar handwriting, the fourth uncle would say something to himself. So、While staring at the envelope in a daze, I couldn't wait to ask, "What did the fourth uncle say?"
The county lord of Qingcheng truthfully told the story of going to see King Yan, of course, she only talked about what she saw and heard, but with this, Zhu Yunwen decided that the fourth uncle would not forgive him......
After crying for a while, Zhu Di unexpectedly found that his originally depressed mood was soothed.
After sorting out his emotions, he just walked out of the tent again, but saw Wu Pingwen coming towards him,
"Fourth master, what's wrong with that kid Jing'er?"
"Jing'er?"
Zhu Di was stunned by his question, turned his head to look at Zheng He, who was also unclear, and then said in surprise,
"Not really? Why did Wu Liuxia ask this question? ”
"Oh, not really......"
Wu Pingwen pondered for a moment, and then said,
"I thought something was going on between him and the fourth master, just now the kid came to me with a blushing face, saying that he was going to do something very important, leave for a while, and ask me to protect the fourth master in these days when he is away."
"There is such a thing?!"
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked,
"Didn't he say where he was going?"
"I didn't say it, and you also know that Jing'er is a kid, if he doesn't want to say it himself, I won't say it if I ask him again."
Wu Pingwen said a little helplessly.
Zhu Di suddenly showed a sad face when he heard this, and said to himself,
"This kid, where the hell did he go......"
"Lord, you don't have to worry,"
Zheng He smiled slightly and comforted softly,
"Young Master Jing is not only smart and clever, but also has martial arts skills, he will not suffer anywhere, let alone be fine, and, in this situation, he will definitely not leave you like this, he must have remembered something that must be solved. The minion thinks that you will see him when you enter the capital, which is really uncertain. ”
"Really?"
Although Zhu Di was a little skeptical about what he said, there was no other way, and he had nowhere to find it, so he had to continue to plan the next step while worrying in his heart......
Since the county lord of Qingcheng came, seven days have passed, and there has been no response from the capital, and Sheng Yong, who is stationed in Puzikou, is strengthening the defense, and it seems that this battle will really be fought again.
This day is the first day of the sixth month of the fourth year of Jianwen.
Zhu Di led the army to Puzikou in this scorching summer, and met Sheng Yong stationed here, but what he didn't expect was that he saw Xu Huizu's handsome banner here for the third time.
Xu Huizu came to reinforce him, but this situation made Zhu Di shake from the bottom of his heart. Speaking from his heart, he really didn't want to be an enemy of the Xu family, and he didn't want to fight to the death on the battlefield with Xu Huizu, who had always been regarded as a brother.
At this time, after the Yan army marched during this period of time, various diseases caused by the summer heat made many soldiers in the army fall ill, and the attrition caused by it was also very serious, and Zhu Di had to choose 50,000 elite soldiers to fight with the other party.
had the intention to personally lead troops to the front as before, but the thought of facing that person face to face with the enemy's position made Zhu Di retreat a little. Listening to the deafening shouts in his ears and feeling the heat wave rolling around him, the feeling of dizziness hit him again, his eyes were dark, and his body fell uncontrollably, thanks to Wu Pingwen, who was guarding next to him, caught him in time and firmly took him into his arms.
"Fourth master, let's let the brothers withdraw for the time being."
Zheng He whispered his own suggestion.
Glancing at him weakly, Zhu Di nodded slightly,
"Just listen to you."
As soon as King Yan's general order came out, the whole army quickly withdrew, and many of the generals found that His Royal Highness's performance was somewhat abnormal, and it was inevitable that they began to worry about it.
Knowing what kind of torment his master was in at this time, Zheng He told everyone that His Royal Highness King Yan needed to rest, and he would discuss something tomorrow.
At this time, Zhu Di lay quietly on the cool bed in the sleeping tent, not wanting to move anymore-
He admitted that he was really cowardly, because so far, he still didn't know how to face his nephew once he rushed into the capital, and Xu Huizu, who was blocking him, really wanted to fight him? Do you really have the courage to climb the high dragon chair......
"Father, eldest brother, ......"
Subconsciously, Zhu Di shouted softly.
Zheng He, who was guarding the side, suddenly burst into tears, and said softly for a while,
"Fourth master, don't force yourself anymore, take a good rest."
