Nanjing, Fengtian Temple.

"Your Majesty, it's not good!"

An old eunuch didn't care about the rules of the palace, and walked into the palace anxiously.

"Why panic? Slowly, what does this look like? Zhu Di put down the music in his hand and said.

Looking at the appearance of the old eunuch, Zhu Di was also strange in his heart, this old slave was very steady, how could he behave so unexpectedly today? I don't know what the big deal is.

The old eunuch wiped the beads of sweat from the corners of his forehead and said: "Back to Your Majesty, just now there was an urgent report from the Chengguo Mansion, and the Chengguo Duke fell ill in Anqing!" ”

"What?!"

Hearing this, Zhu Di's face changed greatly, and he still couldn't believe his ears.

Cheng Guogong is sick, he is not surprised, but Cheng Guogong is so young and strong, in his early thirties, and his body is strong enough to tear tigers and leopards, even if he has some coughs, how can he get sick?

Moreover, an even more terrible thought appeared in Zhu Di's mind.

When Jiang Xinghuo was just released from prison, he said that Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, would die of illness on the way to Annan!

Zhu Di didn't disbelieve Jiang Xinghuo's prophetic ability, he did believe it at first, and even visited Zhu Neng's physical condition in person, but Zhu Neng did only cough slightly at that time, just like an ordinary throat discomfort, and his body was not affected at all.

Therefore, Zhu Di slowly doubted his beliefs, after all, Jiang Xinghuo himself said that once his prophetic ability interferes with reality, there may be deviations At that time, Zhu Di thought, maybe Zhu Neng's body also has this possibility.

After several months of observation, Zhu Di never found anything abnormal about Zhu Neng, and Zhu Neng also said that he had seen a doctor, but he had a cold and cough, so Zhu Di finally sent Zhu Neng to lead the troops.

But who knows, it is still good in Nanjing, why did he fall ill just a few days after leaving Nanjing?

"Bring me in the messenger!"

Suddenly, the home of the Chengguo Mansion will be brought in.

"How is Cheng Guogong doing now? It took only two or three days for Anqing to go down the river in Nanjing, so why didn't Cheng Guogong come back to recuperate? Zhu Di asked quickly, and it could be seen that he was really concerned about Zhu Neng's physical condition.

"Cheng Guogong is now seriously ill and dying, and he can't even get off the boat, and the military doctor said that Cheng Guogong can't go long distances anymore, and he may be able to stay up for a while in Anqing, but if it is bumpy, maybe . A life is whimpering. ”

The general of the Chengguo Mansion finished his words with trembling trembling and lowered his eyes and waited for the hadith.

"Bang-"

I saw Zhu Di in front of the imperial case slapping on the table, shaking the teacup to the ground.

"Bastard, you're fooling me! Chengguo is clearly and well-decent, where did the serious illness come from? ”

"The little ones don't dare ......"

The generals of the Chengguo Mansion also have suffering.

"Get out, get out!"

Zhu Di shouted angrily, and the general was so frightened that his buttocks urinated, but he was immediately called back by Zhu Di.

"What kind of disease is Cheng Guogong? Did the military physician ever diagnose it? ”

"Sky Roar, also known as Heron Cough."

"If there is nothing else to say, let's rest on the sidelines and call all the imperial doctors of the Tai Hospital for me!"

Not long after, the court judge of the Tai Hospital, along with the rest of the doctors who were qualified to be truly called "imperial doctors" and treat the emperor, all came to the Fengtian Temple.

The top giants of the medical field of the Yongle Dynasty gathered together.

"Heron cough?"

The seventy-nine-year-old Tai Hospital made Dai Sigong's face look embarrassed when he heard this.

Jiang Xinghuo had a good saying in his previous life, he was not afraid of Western medicine smiling and grinning, but he was afraid of Chinese medicine sinking his face.

Seeing Dai Lao's appearance, Zhu Di's heart also sank.

You must know that Dai Sigong is a ruthless person who has not gone wrong for decades when he sees his father Lao Zhu.

In fact, this is indeed a famous medical scientist in the early Ming Dynasty in history, his father Dai Shiyao is a famous doctor, inherited his father's business at a young age, and continued to learn medical skills from Zhu Danxi for more than 20 years.

During the Hongwu period, Dai Sigong was recruited as the imperial doctor of the eighth grade, and awarded Di Gonglang, because his curative effect was particularly good, and he could cure the disease every time, so he was deeply valued by Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, when Lao Zhu was about to hang up, the medical officer of the Tai Hospital was killed, and he only comforted Dai Sigong and said: "You are a benevolent and righteous person, don't be afraid", even Zhu Yunwen, a bastard boy, trusted Dai Sigong's medical skills very much, and treated many doctors for crimes, but promoted Dai Sigong to the Tai Hospital.

"Is it possible that the diagnosis was wrong?" Zhu Di asked.

Dai Sigong shook his head with a wry smile, and only said: "Your Majesty, heron cough is not a disease that is difficult to judge, because the sound made by the patient when coughing in the late stage is too unique, and it is unlikely that the military doctor will make a wrong diagnosis. ”

But "whooping cough" does not only act on children, but children have weak resistance and are more likely to be infected, but adults are also not immune, and even have nothing to do with whether they are strong or strong, because this is a disease transmitted by droplets, which is contagious from the incubation period to the sixth week, and the population is generally susceptible to the disease.

The cause of this disease is an acute respiratory infection caused by pertussis bacillus infection, and because the course of the disease can be delayed for several months, it is vividly called "whooping cough". Patients may present with paroxysmal spasmodic cough with a deep, inspiratory roar that may be fatal in severe cases.

The disease can occur throughout the year, in winter and spring, can be extended to the end of spring and early summer, Chengguo Gong Zhu Neng is in the spring to suffer from this disease, superimposed water and soil adaptation, so to the late stage of whooping cough will suddenly fall ill, and the disease is extremely serious.

Of course, although the name "whooping cough" is given in modern times, it has long existed in ancient China, and Chinese medicine has naturally studied it, but there are many prescriptions, and there are not many that can be effective, especially for the late stage of whooping cough, the effect is even less.

- At the end of the day, because the essence of this thing is bacteria!

How to fight bacteria? The most effective natural is to use antibiotics, because the antibacterial or bactericidal effect of antibacterial agents such as antibiotics is mainly aimed at the mechanism that bacteria have but humans do not have.

But there is a fart antibiotic in this era?

Therefore, whooping cough obviously has a very low fatality rate in modern times, not only can it be prevented by vaccines, but also people can't die with any antibiotics.

But in ancient times, it was a complete incurable disease!

In the late stage of whooping cough, whether you can survive in this era depends on whether your life is hard or not!

"Is there a cure for this disease? If there is a rule, you should leave for Anqing now. ”

Although Dai Sigong was a little unbearable, he still replied frankly: "Your Majesty, if the patient is already in this state, I am afraid that it will be difficult to treat." ”

"Wang Boshan? Yuan Bao? Chen Kegong? Wang Bin? ”

These people are all good doctors in Yanwangfu, and they are also responsible for the medical problems of the emperor, empress, prince and others on weekdays, and they have been following Zhu Di for many years, they must be able to understand Zhu Di's meaning.

But alas, these people silently bowed their heads.

To bow your head means, there is nothing you can do.

Zhu Di waved his hand weakly, and everyone retreated silently.

After everyone left the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Di stood up and paced back and forth, his brows furrowed, obviously lost in thought.

He wasn't very interested in ghosts and gods, but he was shocked when he heard about it.

Jiang Xinghuo's prophecy, after inheriting Wanli Shitang Guano Island and Japan's largest gold mine silver mine, has been verified again!

Although he doesn't understand these gods and ghosts, Jiang Xinghuo has always been in Nanjing Prison, and he has never been to the north before, thousands of miles away from Zhu Neng's life trajectory, how can he know Zhu Neng's situation? What did Zhu Gaoxu tell him? This is even more impossible, Zhu Gaochu hadn't seen Zhu Neng for a long time at that time, and Zhu Gaochu has always advocated that "you don't need to see a doctor if you are sick", and a little cough is even more inappropriate, even if you know, it is impossible to tell Jiang Xinghuo seriously.

Even if Zhu Gaoxu really told Jiang Xinghuo, how could it be inferred that Zhu Neng would die on the way to conquer Annan with a little cough?

But the facts in front of him have proved beyond a doubt that Jiang Xinghuo is right.

Although Zhu Di was extremely incomprehensible, he had to admit that Jiang Xinghuo's prophecy was so accurate, so accurate that Jiang Xinghuo could not have seen Zhu Neng before he was released from prison, but he directly deduced his death, what a terrifying ability!

With Zhu Neng's seemingly doomed death, a question that had been buried deep in his heart and almost forgotten by Zhu Di resurfaced in his mind.

In the last class in prison, Jiang Xinghuo asked him to choose one of the two and only answered him one question, and Zhu Di chose to predict the ending of Daming instead of his own ending.

And at this moment, after learning that his confidant, who was younger than himself, might go by himself first, an unprecedented fear that Zhu Di thought he would hardly face appeared in Zhu Di's heart.

Zhu Di has always been not afraid of death, half his life, he has experienced too many moments of brushing shoulders with death, if he is afraid of death, Zhu Di will not be able to go today.

But Zhu Di is scared today, no, to be more accurate, Zhu Di is not afraid of death, but afraid that if he dies suddenly, then the country he just laid down in the name of the thief will disappear, and the grand cause of "governing the Tang and Song dynasties and advancing the Han and Tang dynasties" in his chest will not be realized.

Jiang Xinghuo didn't tell him when he would die, which means that maybe in the future that Jiang Xinghuo saw, maybe he would die next year, or even tomorrow.

Even if it is the emperor, there is no guarantee that tomorrow or death will come first.

After a while, he seemed to have made a decision.

"Prepare the horse, don't need to drive Luan, take the general of the Chengguo Mansion and Dai Sigong, the envoy of the Tai Hospital, with you, and I will personally go to see the national teacher."

——————

The new mansion is still being renovated, and Jiang Xinghuo still lives with the old monk.

Today, Yuan Heng went to study how to turn sand into glass, so he specially built a new workshop next to the fertilizer workshop.

And Zhang Yuchu pulled a group of scholars who were in the same vein of Lu Jiuyuan's mind and began the propaganda of heart science.

Jiang Xuan went out to buy vegetables, and Xiao Qian also went to school and hasn't come back yet, so although it is time to be on duty at the moment, there are only Jiang Xinghuo and the old monk at home, as well as Zhu Gaoxu, who came to visit.

When Zhu Gaoxu came, Jiang Xinghuo was pulling the old monk to engage in scientific research.

Well, it's not accurate to describe it as "scientific research", to be precise, it's a tea party.

The first part of the tea party is meditation.

This is the content of the "Mirror Theory" in the study of mind, and it is also the most important work of Wang Yangming's mind and the heart, and Jiang Xinghuo has heard of it a little.

The slightest hint of it means that he doesn't know how to get it.

But fortunately, there are still people who understand here, meditating, the old monk must be good at it.

"What is the purpose?"

Yao Guangxiao, who is also a layman, put on a monk's robe again, he was as kind as a Buddha, and said indifferently: "Is it still the same as the science of the heart?" All things in the world have laws, and the so-called 'three outlines and five constants' are the foundation of human affairs, if there are no three outlines and five constants, it will be difficult for people to distinguish between true and false, good and evil; therefore, heaven and earth are reasonable, we must conform to the principles of heaven, follow the three outlines and five constants, and our hearts must always reflect on it, and the so-called 'gentleman is cautious and independent'. ”

"Or is it that the grid of the mind is to seek one's own heart?"

Jiang Xinghuo replied: "The main purpose is to develop a set of cultivation methods that can be promoted, and the study of the mind is like the Demon Sect Kung Fu in it, which is quick, has a low threshold, and is easy to promote, and it is best to use it to fight and overthrow the science of science. At present, although there has been a debate competition, and both the study of mind and practice have been revived, but this is only the first stage, the second stage is to reproduce the three-legged state of the three schools of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the third stage is that the study of practice has completely become an official school. ”

Zhu Gaoxu asked: "I can understand what Rong Guogong said, but I always feel that something is missing?" ”

Yao Guangxiao stroked his beard under his chin and smiled: "Amitabha, how can there be anything perfect in the world?" You might want more...... Meditation is the means of the mind, and the most fundamental thing is your mind. ”

Yao Guangxiao's return to the vulgar is purely for Jiang Xinghuo, and he doesn't want his identity as a Buddhist leader to affect the debate and change the law, and it is not that he can really change his habits for decades.

He raised his hand outside and called a little novice in.

Xiao Shami bowed and said, "Master." ”

Yao Guangxiao pointed to the futon on the ground and said gently: "Put it in the middle." ”

Xiao Shami did as he was told, and the futon was quickly arranged, and Yao Guangxiao continued: "Sit down." ”

Looking at the well-behaved little novice with his knees folded, Yao Guangxiao asked, "What are you thinking?" ”

I want to eat meat."

Yao Guangxiao didn't say anything, let Xiao Shami go down, and motioned for Zhu Gaoxu to come up.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "I am a military general, a war, what are you doing here?" ”

"If you want to sit, you will sit." Jiang Xinghuo said.

"Oh." Zhu Gaoxu had no choice but to walk over and sit down cross-legged.

"Although I don't understand what Jiang Sheng wants to gain by meditating."

Yao Guangxiao continued: "But people's feelings are connected with nature, and people's hearts are also a kind of nature, and the so-called people have seven emotions and six desires. ”

Jiang Xinghuo listened, and actually showed a look of approval, and bowed slightly.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "So what? ”

Yao Guangxiao raised his hand and beckoned to Xiao Shami: "Light the lamp." ”

"Yes." The little novice agreed.

After a few moments, the room with the curtains drawn finally lit up a little, and the little novice quietly retreated.

"Is the world you see the world you can imagine?"

Yao Guangxiao suddenly turned his head and stared at Zhu Gaoxu: "What people's hearts want is because of what you see and think, you see it, you will imagine, it is your eyes that tell your head." ”

Zhu Gaoxu frowned and said, "I don't understand." ”

Yao Guangxiao said: "According to the principle of Buddhism, the world is unpredictable, everything in the world has its trajectory, and so is the human heart. If you imagine a temple, you will know that when you think about it, you will see the Buddha statues enshrined in the temple. And if you imagine someone, you can know what he's thinking. ”

Zhu Gaoxu was stunned and said, "So? ”

He imagined it for a while, and found that his imagination was too lacking, and for a while he couldn't imagine any temples or Buddha statues, let alone a person who was fabricated out of thin air.

Yao Guangxiao said: "If you think about it carefully, what do you want to appear?" ”

"I want to be the crown prince, I don't want to leave my father and go to Beizhili."

Although he was not rated as a general, Zhu Gaochu was obviously given additional benefits by his father, he was given a certain amount of military power by his father to guard against the Mongolian tribes in the north, as well as the Jin king who was about to move in Shanxi.

But even so, Zhu Gaoxu still didn't want to leave Nanjing.

Zhu Gaoxu walked down, and Jiang Xinghuo sat up.

After a moment, Jiang Xinghuo opened his eyes.

"What is in Master's mind?"

"Wine and garlic."

Yes, when Jiang Xinghuo went to the Imperial Prison today to inspect the progress of allicin research, he saw Kong Xilu, who used garlic as a snack.

Although baijiu with garlic helps to nourish the kidneys and aphrodisiac and promote metabolism, when Kong Xilu reported to him that it had been successfully developed, Jiang Xinghuo was still choked by a mouthful of pungent spicy taste, and he couldn't forget it for a long time, so that when Yao Guangxiao asked him what came to mind, Jiang Xinghuo was the first taste.

At this moment, Wang Bin suddenly came to report that the emperor personally came to visit the national teacher.

Jiang Xinghuo couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, he knew that this Zhu Di had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and he would never come to see him easily if he had nothing to do on weekdays, at most, he would let himself go to the palace to find him.

"Is it ......?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Xinghuo hurriedly got up to greet him, and sure enough, he saw that the person sitting in the hall was the current saint, Zhu Di.

It's just that his face is ugly now.

And next to Zhu Di, stood the generals of the Chengguo Mansion and Dai Sigong, the envoy of the Tai Hospital.

"Ministers/sons see Your Majesty."

The three of them said in unison.

"Well, there's no need to be polite."

Zhu Di did not have any suspicions about Zhu Gaoxu's appearance here, because the whereabouts of the princes were under his control.

didn't wait for others to ask, Zhu Di himself simply said: "National teacher, Cheng Guogong is more seriously ill than Anqing, and now he can't get off the boat." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Xinghuo's heart also followed.

Sure enough, Zhu Neng is destined to have this catastrophe?

"What is it?" Jiang Xinghuo hurriedly asked.

Although Jiang Xinghuo knew that Zhu Neng died of illness, he didn't know what illness Zhu Neng died of, and there seemed to be no clear record in the history books in his memory.

"Heron, Ruth, cough, and it's late." Tai Hospital made Dai Sigong answer truthfully.

Zhu Di's eyes were firmly fixed on Jiang Xinghuo's expression, if Jiang Xinghuo was the same as Dai Sigong, then he would really be desperate.

"What's the cough?" Jiang Xinghuo and Zhu Gaoxu looked at Yao Guangxiao blankly at the same time.

Although Jiang Xinghuo is erudite and has a wide range of knowledge, he really hasn't studied medicine!

And if there is a whooping cough, Jiang Xinghuo can understand it, but whooping cough is a name that was only established in the 20th century.

Yao Guangxiao is not only broad-minded in the three religions, but also has a lot of attainments in medical skills, Huikong's medical skills are taught by him, so he naturally understands what kind of disease Lulu cough is, so he explained it to Jiang Xinghuo.

"Oh, isn't this whooping cough?"

Hearing this, Yao Guangxiao was slightly stunned, whooping cough, which is an appropriate description.

Just like the seven-step snake, the seven-step snake is poisoned and dies after taking seven steps, and the whooping cough is coughing for a hundred days.

Zhu Di looked at Jiang Xinghuo eagerly: "Since the national teacher knows, can he cure it?" ”

"It can be cured, it is easy to treat."

Dai Sigong reminded him euphemistically: "It's late." ”

"Can it be cured at an advanced stage?" Zhu Di continued to ask.

"Of course."

The hospital made Dai Sigong open his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

He was able to live under Lao Zhu's hands for decades without moving a head, in addition to his superb medical skills, he also had the advantage of knowing what to say and what not to say.

Just now he told Zhu Di that he couldn't be cured, not because he was upright, but because he was an envoy of the Imperial Hospital, and he had to tell the emperor about the clear medical conclusions, which was his duty.

And now the national teacher says that he can cure, although Dai Sigong thinks that the national teacher is purely bragging from a professional point of view, but the old Chinese medicine doctor does not always specialize in bragging, especially when the other party's status is much higher than his own, the words of doubt are even more difficult to say.

"There's still a year to go, forget it." Old man Dai Sigong comforted himself.

But the next conversation between the two made Dai Sigong unbearable.

"But the doctors said that the late stage of heron cough is a terminal illness, are you sure you can cure it? With rune water? Zhu Di's imagination is limited to this, he has only heard of the Northern Song Dynasty teacher Lin Lingsu to treat diseases, all of which use Fu Shui.

"What kind of rune water is used? Trust the science. ”

"Does science still cure diseases?" This was asked by Zhu Gaoxu.

"Of course, medicine is science, because all the disciplines that exist in the world and study objectively existing things are sciences, and medicine is the study of living organisms and diseases, which exist objectively, so medicine is also science."

"Please save my family and my father-in-law!"

At this time, the general of the Chengguo Mansion knelt on the ground, and the iron-clad man walked to Jiang Xinghuo's side, holding his thighs and crying with tears in his eyes.

"How does the national teacher plan to govern Chengguogong?"

"With allicin."

"Allicin?"

"Well, the antibiotics extracted from garlic can kill bacteria, and whooping cough is caused by bacteria."

Hearing this, Dai Sigong couldn't bear it at all.

The old man said: "Your Majesty, although there is no help in the late stage of heron cough, you can only resign yourself to fate, but the cause of the research has long been clear, it is from the lungs, the lungs are a light body, the most taboo wind and cold evil, a feeling, the trachea is on the top, the disease is the first to suffer from its disease, the disease will cause phlegm, phlegm will hinder breathing, the lungs are obstructed by breathing, and they are eager to get rid of evil spirits to go out, so they cough to drive it away. ”

"When the heron coughs at the beginning, the cough is often sharp and the phlegm is often white, and the cold evil is attacked, and the phlegm and saliva are still born, and the turbidity is still not dissolved; In the middle stage of the disease, the cough is often heavy and turbid and the phlegm is often thick and yellow, and the evil force prevails, and then the heat is dissolved, the phlegm and saliva accumulate, and the fumigation becomes thicker; In the later stage of the disease, there are internal and external causes mixed, and there are repeated colds, resulting in serious lung injuries, which can also be turned into incurable evidence. ”

In other words, the heron cough is generally not fatal to adults, but once the heron cough + cold and flu, it will be fatal, and Zhu Neng is not adapted to the water and soil + heron cough + cold and flu, so the iron general, the body collapsed all of a sudden, it is the body's internal immune system that is defeated, and it has nothing to do with whether the surface of the body is strong or not.

Dai Sigong gritted his teeth, but still said: "Your Majesty, garlic can't cure heron cough, if it can be cured, the ancestor must have discovered that maybe the national teacher said that garlic can prevent heron cough." ”

Zhu Di didn't speak yet, but Jiang Xinghuo directly ignored the steps given by the other party and said simply.

"Garlic can't be cured, but allicin can, the difference between the two, and how to treat the principle of sterilization, I can't understand it with you for a while, you don't believe what you want to say now, it's important to save people now, since you can't help it, listen to me."

Zhu Di really had no choice at this time, he could only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor, except for Jiang Xinghuo, who else could he trust? The doctors said there was no help.

"That's it, just call him garlic or allicin to save Cheng Guogong! Envoy Dai, you, Wang Boshan, Yuan Bao, Chen Kegong, and Wang Bin also went to Anqing with the national teacher! ”

As for Zhu Di's careful thinking about asking Jiang Xinghuo about his future, it was also temporarily covered up, and it was indeed 100,000 urgent at the moment, no one knew how long Zhu Neng could hold on, Zhu Di urged: "National teacher, hurry up and take your allicin and set off." ”

"Wait a minute, I need to go to prison."

——————

Anqing Wharf, above the ship.

Zhu Yong did not go to Nanjing in the end, because his father Zhu Neng, the Duke of Chengguo, had begun to deteriorate seriously and visibly, and in just two days, his face became sallow, his body became weaker and weaker, and every time he coughed hoarsely, it seemed that he wanted to cough out his lungs.

In the past, although Zhu Neng loved Zhu Yong very much, but more of his hopes were pinned on his son, Zhu Yong has always been strictly required by Zhu Yong at home over the years, and Zhu Neng's attitude towards Zhu Yong is also very strict, because of this, Zhu Yong's rebellious psychology in adolescence gradually rises, and there will be some contradictions between father and son.

The reason why Zhu Yong went to the military academy and studied artillery was very simple, he wanted to make his father identify with him through his own actions, and agree that he could make a career without his father's shadow.

In Zhu Yong's opinion, as long as he can do it, even if his father is against it, so what's the matter? Father won't cut him with a knife, will he? And in this way, he can live independently, and he doesn't have to go home every day to be trained by his father.

But now Zhu Yong hopes that his father, who used to run around the house with a whip, can regain his healthy appearance, and shouts to himself, "Little rabbit, don't run!" Unfortunately, these can only become extravagant hopes.

The cruelty of reality was far more intense than he expected, and it only took a few days for his father's condition to deteriorate to such an extent that he even fell into a coma for a while.

"Why, don't come back."

Looking at his father who was lying on the bed and dying, and didn't even have the strength to speak, Zhu Yong's enthusiasm gradually cooled down.

Although his father was still holding on, Zhu Yong could still sense from his faint breathing that his life was hanging by a thread.

My father is so stubborn, and he wants to continue to make achievements, in fact, as long as he can follow the advice, then he doesn't have to go to this step!

"Alas, father, the child knows that he is wrong."

Zhu Yong sat on the edge of the bed and muttered.

Zhu Neng tried to open his mouth, but only uttered a low, hoarse vague syllable.

"The child is wrong, he shouldn't have been willful before."

Zhu Yong sighed softly and held his father's hand in his palm.

"Well, my son, but, cough, cough, cough, teach!"

Zhu Neng raised his right hand with difficulty and touched Zhu Yong's head: "Remember, don't, cry." ”

Zhu Yong was silent, and only after a long time did he grit his teeth and say, "The child obeys!" Babies live up to your expectations! ”

"Go."

But Zhu Yong still stood in place, refusing to move half a step, just staring at Zhu Neng with a longing gaze.

"Father!"

Zhu Yong knelt down in front of Zhu Neng and pleaded with a wailing voice: "Child, please!" Let me accompany you! The child did not want to go back to the army, and if it was really destiny, the child was willing to accompany his father on the last journey. ”

Zhu Neng was silent for a long time before slowly shaking his head slightly and gently spit out a few words.

Zhu Yong approached and heard it.

"If you don't succeed in the division, you die first, and you will be a long-term envoy. Heroes, tears. ”

After finishing speaking, a line of muddy tears flowed from Zhu Neng's tiger eyes.

Then Zhu Neng fell into a coma again.

I don't know how long later, when Zhu Yong was lying on the edge of the bed and was already asleep, he suddenly noticed the movement, but saw Zhu Neng looking at him gently.

Yes, gentleness.

This is a scene that has never happened between the Father and the Son.

And miraculously, Zhu Neng seemed to be much better at this time, not only could he move slightly, but he also spoke a lot more and didn't cough.

But Zhu Yong's joy just appeared on his face, and the next moment was endless fear.

Of course he knew what that meant.

- My father has returned to the light.

Zhu Neng looked down at his emaciated body and muttered, "It's really not good, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid I won't live long." Son, you are my only hope, the pillar of our Zhu family's future, you have to live well, keep the Zhu family's incense, and hope for my father that when I go down to the underworld, when I see my ancestors and ancestors, can I have an explanation, do you understand? ”

Zhu Yong was stunned when he heard this, he suddenly realized what his father meant, this was explaining the future.

He raised his head suddenly, tears rolling down his eyes: "Father, the child is willing to follow his father to fight on the battlefield, go to the soup and fire, and die!" ”

Zhu Neng smiled slightly, but this smile looked extremely far-fetched: "Silly child, of course my father knows that you are loyal and courageous, and you want to sacrifice your life to serve the country, but the foundation of our Zhu family is counting on you, after I die, I don't worry about the title, Your Majesty will let you attack the knighthood, and will treat you well, you have to take care of your younger brothers and sisters, so, the battle of Zheng Annan promised to be a father, don't go to fight, okay?" ”

After saying this, without waiting for Zhu Yong to answer, Zhu Neng seemed to be relieved, and his head fell heavily on the pillow.

Zhu Neng looked at the ceiling of the cockpit, the building ship was very large and heavy, moored in the dock, there was no shaking, no difference from on land, Zhu Neng tried to imagine this scene as the house he used to be a soldier in Yanshan Sanwei, the roof of the broken tile house.

"Ahem, ahem."

After a violent cough, Zhu Yong's expression was a little dazed.

"That's right. When your mother hugged you to me, she said, let me protect your sister and brother, so that our family will be prosperous and rich, and now, I have done it, but I still feel that it is not enough, not enough."

Zhu Yong was stunned, and suddenly understood why his father was so stubborn to be the commander of the campaign against Annan.

"I regret not listening to the words of the national teacher." Zhu Neng smiled bitterly, "I misunderstood the national teacher, thinking that the national teacher. didn't want me to make meritorious contributions, and even gave birth to a few points. Resentment, when you see the national teacher, apologize to him for me. ”

Zhu Yong nodded, and then, the father and son fell silent again.

"Take me to see the Yangtze River again."

Zhu Neng said angrily.

Zhu Yong called the guards and silently lifted his father from the bed together, at this time there was no point in following the doctor's instructions, fulfilling his father's last wish was more important than anything else.

Zhu Neng sat in a chair, and Zhu Yong stood behind him.

Father and son were on the deck, gazing at the Yangtze River, it was almost evening, and the sunset was falling on the water, reflecting the golden sparkling waves, making the already beautiful river scenery even more colorful.

Suddenly, there was a commotion from the other side of the dock, breaking the rare silence, and then a ship was seen slowly approaching.

Immediately a group of people boarded the dock and walked towards the boat on their side.

When he saw clearly the young man in a green shirt who was the leader, Zhu Yong's face was pale.

"Father, father, the headmaster is here! It's the principal! You're saved! ”

However, at this moment, Zhu Yong found that his father's head had fallen down.

Zhu Yong was so anxious that he hurriedly felt his pulse and sniffed.

Fortunately, Zhu Neng just fell into a coma and did not die directly.

Without waiting for Jiang Xinghuo to arrive, Zhu Yong rushed over, and when he saw Jiang Xinghuo and his party, he knelt directly on the ground, "Bang bang!" Even after snorting his head, the young man's forehead became bloody and blurred, Jiang Xinghuo couldn't pull it up, as if it had taken root under his feet, and in the end, a few guards forcibly pulled him up.

"Headmaster! My dad knew he was wrong! Please, save him! Zhu Yong's voice was full of crying, and he would laugh at Xu Jingchang, Zhang Anshi and others for several days when they shed tears when they were hurt, but now the tears can't stop flowing, like a flood that has opened the floodgates.

The boy doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place.

And the people in the Tai Hospital, even if they didn't believe Jiang Xinghuo's so-called allicin at all, but seeing this situation, they really had a fantasy in their hearts, hoping that Jiang Xinghuo could save Zhu Neng.

After all, doctors are benevolent, how can a doctor be a doctor who can't cure his own disease, and he can't cure it even if he curses others? At most, I don't believe it, and Jiang Xinghuo can fully understand this kind of disbelief, after all, the germ theory has not been put forward at all.

Of course, Jiang Xinghuo does not think that Chinese medicine is useless and Western medicine is useful, in fact, the things of the ancestors are of course very effective most of the time, but in some aspects, they are indeed not as intuitive and effective as Western medicine.

For example, this kind of respiratory disease caused by bacterial infection, even if it is the so-called advanced stage, a tube of antibiotics will solve it, but if you go down in a bowl of traditional Chinese medicine, you will definitely not be able to save it.

In the suspicion of everyone in the Tai Hospital, and in Zhu Yong's expectation as if grasping a life-saving straw, Jiang Xinghuo took out the freshly prepared and cryopreserved allicin.

The golden liquid seems to be holy water at this moment.

Jiang Xinghuo pried open Zhu Neng's mouth and poured him down, and then carried him back to the cockpit to rest, the cockpit when the ship was parked at the dock was stable and abnormal, and it would not bring any bumps to the patient, but it was better than carrying him down and tossing further.

I don't know how long it took, when Zhu Neng woke up leisurely, he only saw a group of old men wearing official uniforms of the Tai Hospital, and his eyes burst out with a mixture of shock, disbelief, and even. Frightened gaze.

Jiang Xinghuo's voice came from outside the cabin.

I saw Jiang Xinghuo carrying a pot of wine, enjoying the river view, and walked in.

"The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes. Success or failure turns empty, the green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times. ”

"On the white-haired fisherman Jiangzhu, I am used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet, and many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking. ”

Looking at Zhu Neng, who had improved significantly and struggled from the line of life and death, Jiang Xinghuo did not have any accidents.

Jiang Xinghuo just handed the wine jug to Zhu Neng's lips and let him sniff it.

"When you drink, laugh, laugh and grudge."

Zhu Neng heard that the corners of the wooden people's mouths that would not usually move in the past did not purse them seriously this time, but drew a smile with difficulty.
