While speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang had wiped the sweat off Xu Da's back and said to Xu Da: "Okay, brother Xian, please get up." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Xu Da stood up and put on his clothes again.

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Brother Xian, please take a seat." When I mentioned Yu Gao, I was very sentimental. ”

After the establishment of the country, Yu Gao was involved in the case of Lan Yu's rebellion and was executed.

"Yu Gao's participation in the rebellion is also deserved. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "After the country was settled, there was Hu Weiyong first, and then there was Lan Yu, and the number of participants reached tens of thousands, and most of them were old ministers who had followed me for many years. Although I can't bear it, I don't dare to care about my personal feelings when it comes to the country. Moreover, the country has been decided, and the people's hearts are not at peace, and if strict punishments are not imposed, it will be difficult for the world to be peaceful. ”

"Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said again: "Hu Weiyong, the reason why Lan Yu rebelled and traced back to the source was because of the rumors that prevailed at the beginning. Although it is groundless, it is often used by people with ulterior motives to threaten the society of the country, which is really a piece of my heart. ”

Xu Dadao: "The sage has clouds: rumors stop at wisdom." Such absurd remarks will not last long, and Your Majesty need not be worried. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Having said that, there are fools all over the world, and how many wise people can ......"

As he was talking, the brocade guard outside announced: "Long live Qiyu, the queen sissy asks Your Majesty to return to the palace." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, got it." Then he said to Xu Da: "The queen summoned me to return to the palace, presumably there must be something important to discuss." The virtuous brother recuperated in peace and again, and I came to visit another day. ”

Xu Da knelt on the ground and said in his mouth: "Weichen sends your majesty respectfully." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and left the palace under the escort of Jinyiwei.

Xu Da knelt on the ground and waited until the sound of gongs and drums accompanied by the driver was far away, then he stood up and wiped the cold sweat on his head.

Xu Jizhong entered the house and saw Xu Da's worried face, so he asked, "Father, what did the emperor talk to you about?"

Xu Da shook his head, sighed, and said, "Your Majesty has become suspicious of me. Alas!"

"My father has always been loyal to the emperor, why is he suspect......ed?

Xu Da waved his hand: "Forget it." My back was uncomfortable, so I called someone to come in, bathe and change my clothes, and clean my wounds. ”

"Yes. Xu Jizhong agreed, and called the subordinates who were waiting outside into the house to take care of Xu Da.

After bathing and changing clothes and cleaning his wounds, Xu Da sat at the table, holding the "Wu Mu Testament" given to him by Zhang Wuji, his heart was surging and it was difficult to calm down.

At night, Xu Da took medicine, cleaned the wound again, and then went to bed.

In my sleep, I felt a dull pain in my back. Xu Da was sleeping deeply, and he didn't have a mental feeling, so he forced himself to endure and continued to sleep. After falling asleep for a while, I felt that my back hurt more and more, not only that, but my head was also groggy and my ears were buzzing.

Xu Da closed his eyes and called, "Come on, clean my wounds for me." ”

The maid who was guarding outside agreed, pushed the door into the house, came to the bedside, took a towel, and wiped Xu Da's back. Unexpectedly, the wound on Xu Da's back that the towel had just touched, Xu Da screamed and screamed.

The maid was so frightened that she fell to her knees: "The slave should die!

Xu Da opened his eyes and said, "My back hurts unbearably, is the wound ruptured?"

When Xu Da opened his eyes, he felt that the world was spinning, and everything in front of him was hazy. Xu Da was shocked and wondered in his heart: Could it be that I have another disease?

At this time, I listened to the maid say: "The prince's back is bleeding pus, and it seems that something is not good." ”

"What?"

"Lord Wang, please take a look. The maid said, holding the white towel in her hand above her head.

Xu Da saw that the snow-white towel was stained with a large piece of dark red pus and blood. Knowing that things were not good, he instructed the maid: "Boil a pair of medicinal soup, and wipe the wound for me." ”

"Yes. The maid agreed, and went out to boil medicine.

Xu Da was lying on his side on the bed, and he was suspicious: I have used Liu Xiandi's medicine in the past few days, and my condition has improved greatly, why has it deteriorated sharply in less than half a day?

Suddenly, Xu Da remembered Liu Bowen's advice when he left: Back gangrene is the most taboo for White Horse Khan, and if you meet White Horse Khan, the gods will be difficult to save. But these days, I have never been out of the house, so how can I get stained with white horse sweat. Thinking of this, Xu Da remembered that Zhu Yuanzhang had wiped his back for himself in the afternoon. Could it be that His Majesty's handkerchief is stained with white horse sweat? Thinking of this, Xu Da couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: Could it be that Your Majesty came today to visit the sick, but it was actually to take my life?

Just thinking about it, Xu Jizhong walked in, came to the bedside, leaned over and asked, "Father, I heard that your condition has deteriorated?"

Xu Da did not answer, but asked Xu Jizhong: "When Your Majesty came this afternoon, did you take a sedan chair or ride a horse?"

"Jizhong didn't know, Jizhong went to call the housekeeper. Xu Jizhong said and hurriedly walked out of the room. After a while, he walked into the house with his housekeeper Xu Fu.

Xu Fu knelt down in front of the bed and kowtowed to Xu Da: "The villain sees the prince." ”

Xu Da asked: "When the emperor comes in the afternoon, is he riding a sedan chair or a horse?"

"It's horsebacking, and the brocade guards who accompany the guards are also horsebacking. ”

"Is the emperor riding a white horse or a green horse?"

"White horse. ”

"It's a white horse?"

"It's a white horse. ”

When Xu Da heard this, he suddenly screamed and passed out.

Xu Jizhong was shocked and ordered: "Hurry! Go and ask for a doctor!" He came to the bedside, shook Xu Da's shoulder, and called: "Father, father!" After calling several times, Xu Da woke up leisurely.

Xu Jizhong said: "Father, bear with me for a while, I have already sent Xu Fu Xu Ji to ask for a doctor." ”

Xu Da shook his head slightly, and said: "Since Your Majesty has the intention to kill me, I don't have to linger any longer; You don't have to spend manpower anymore. You go and call Pu'er and daughter-in-law over, I have something to say. ”

"Yes. Xu Jizhong agreed and left the room. After a while, he brought his sister-in-law Xu Pu and his wife Zhang in.

Xu Pu is 12 years old and studies with his teacher every day. Although he is young, he is very smart and often praised by Xu Da. Even the current emperor Zhu Yuanzhang also added to his blue eyes, so that he read with the emperor's grandson, and entered the palace every Monday or Friday to accompany Zhu Yunwen to study.

Xu Pu had fallen asleep before, but was suddenly woken up by his father, and he was still sleepy for a while, with a pair of hazy sleepy eyes, and followed closely by his mother's side. After entering the house, he saw Xu Da lying on his side on the bed, with a painful look on his face, so he quickly came to the side of the bed and asked, "Grandpa, does your back hurt again?" Do you want your grandson to endorse you?"

Xu Da smiled reluctantly and said, "Grandpa has something to say to your parents, and I will listen to your endorsement later." ”

"Yes. Xu Pu agreed and returned to his mother's side.
