After doing all this, Zhu Gui returned to the palace and happened to meet Xu Miaoqing, who wanted to go out.

"Lord Wang, you're back, I'm about to look for you?" Xu Miaoqing said happily.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Zhu Gui couldn't help but be infected by Xu Miaoqing.

"My father invited the two of us to Xu's Mansion as guests." After Xu Miaoqing finished speaking, she took Zhu Gui's arm and walked out.

The two didn't take the carriage this time, because Xu Miaoqing likes to go shopping now, and the Dawang Mansion is not far from the Xu Mansion, so the two of them walked and went shopping, and finally arrived at the Xu Mansion after half an hour.

Xu Fu had already had people waiting anxiously at the door, and when they saw the two of them coming, they immediately greeted them, "Lord Wang, Second Miss, please come inside, the Lord and Mrs. have been waiting for a long time." ”

The two followed the subordinate into the Xu Mansion and came to the banquet hall.

I saw that a table of banquets had been set up in the hall, Xu Guogong was sitting in the first place, and he stood up immediately after seeing the two of them come in, "You guys are here, come and take a seat." ”

After Zhu Gui and Xu Miaoqing sat down, they listened to Xu Guogong continue, "Acting king, my father has already received the news that you are going to go on an expedition, will my child also come to Nanjing?" ”

It turned out that Xu Guogong was thinking about this, Zhu Gui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said apologetically, "General Xu will not pass through Nanjing, although this king has already ordered someone to send him a message, he will directly lead his troops to the border pass." ”

"That's right." Xu Guogong's face couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

"Dad, didn't you and my second brother see each other last month? That's going to war, not child's play, the emperor is watching it. Xu Miaoqing said with some disgust.

Xu Guogong was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Look at it, look at the water spilled by the married daughter, she now knows how to speak for the prince." ”

Everyone at the table laughed, only Xu Maoqing's face was slightly red, and then he glanced down at Zhu Gui.

But Zhu Gui didn't notice, "By the way, Guogong, this king is out on the expedition, and the affairs of the general will be handed over to you." ”

The general was naturally referring to Lan Yu, Xu Guogong's face couldn't help but become serious.

Although he is a prince of the country, his status is still worse than that of a general, not to mention that the other party still holds military power.

But since Zhu Gui said so, Xu Guogong had to nod, "You can rest assured in this matter, but you must win this war beautifully, so that the emperor will no longer rely on the general, if you lose, then there will be no one in the court who can compete with the general." ”

Zhu Gui nodded, he naturally understood this truth, he didn't have any doubts about this war, but obviously, other people didn't think so, and there were many people waiting to see him laugh.

Then they talked about some inconsequential topics.

After dinner, Zhu Gui and Xu Miaoqing went home.

Zhu Gui sent Xu Miaoqing to the mansion, and then said to her, "I'm going to start busy tomorrow, so today this king is going to go to the palace to see His Royal Highness the Prince, you don't have to accompany me." ”

"Then you come back early, I'm going to give you a supper." Xu Miaoqing advised.

Zhu Gui nodded, then got into the carriage and went to the palace.

came to the East Palace unimpeded, and there seemed to be a lot fewer people in the East Palace than before, only Zhu Yunwen was still kneeling in front of the bed and waiting for the prince, without any dissatisfaction on his face.

Zhu Gui thought that he couldn't do this himself, "Yun Wei, Uncle Huang has come to see you, how is the crown prince?" ”

Zhu Yunwen heard Zhu Gui's voice, and quickly got up and replied, "It turns out that Uncle Huang is here, and my father is still the same." ”

Zhu Yunwen said with a sad face.

"Didn't you say that the emperor had already found a cure for the crown prince? Doesn't it work? Zhu Gui walked to the hospital bed and looked at the prince Zhu Biao on the bed, his face was as white as paper, and his breathing was almost inaudible.

Zhu Yunwen shook his head, "Don't mention those liars, after taking their medicine, my father's illness is not only not better, but also serious, and my father has not woken up once today." ”

Zhu Gui was also startled when he heard Zhu Yunwen's words, and quickly pretended to touch Zhu Biao's pulse, even if he didn't know any medical skills, he could feel that Zhu Biao's pulse was very weak, and I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on for long if it went on like this.

This is something that Zhu Gui did not expect, if Zhu Biao dies of illness early, I am afraid that Zhu Yunwen will take the position in advance, which is very unfavorable to Zhu Gui's plan.

He is not ready yet, although it seems that Zhu Yunwen and he have a better relationship now, but once Zhu Yunwen agrees to the policy of cutting the feudal domain, then the two sides will stand on opposite sides.

Therefore, now Zhu Gui must not allow Zhu Biao to have trouble, at least for another one to two years.

Thinking of this, he immediately remembered the system, so he secretly exchanged a pair of medicines that could alleviate Zhu Biao's condition in the system store, and said to Zhu Yunwen, "This king recently found a pair of medicines that can alleviate the prince's condition in ancient books, and then tried to make one, since the prince's condition is aggravated now, you might as well give him a try." ”

Zhu Gui took out a jade box and said to Zhu Yunwen.

If Zhu Yuanzhang was here, he would definitely not allow Zhu Gui to mess around like this, but Zhu Yunwen recognized Zhu Gui's words very much, and hurriedly walked over and picked up the box handed over by Zhu Gui, "Thank you, Uncle Huang." ”

As he spoke, he asked his subordinates to bring a bowl of water, and then directly gave Zhu Biao the medicine.

After a while, there was an extra bit of blood on Zhu Biao's face, which surprised both Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Gui.

If Zhu Gui didn't know the efficacy of this medicine, don't think that Zhu Biao's illness would be cured like this.

At this time, Zhu Biao slowly opened his eyes, and he was the first to notice Zhu Gui who was standing on the side, "Thirteenth Emperor Brother, you are here, I make you smile like this." ”

"The prince is serious, the younger brother has been too busy recently, and I haven't seen the prince wake up the first few times." Zhu Gui hurriedly explained.

"Father, it was Uncle Huang's medicine that saved you." Zhu Yunwen hurriedly said.

"Oh, is it? I didn't expect that the royal brother still has research on pharmaceuticals, you are really a rare all-rounder. Zhu Biao said slowly, with a hint of brilliance in his eyes.

"The prince smiled, you better have a good rest." Zhu Gui hurriedly said.

He didn't want Zhu Biao to have too much hope, which would only make him feel more ashamed.

But unexpectedly, Zhu Biao waved his hand to let Zhu Yunwen leave the room, and then said to Zhu Gui, "Brother Huang, I know your talent very well, you are the most suitable person for the emperor, whether it is for the Ming Dynasty or the people, it is the most beneficial thing, but my father is obsessed with this matter." ”
