Rebirth of Zhu Di's son

Chapter 403 Whoever dares to disturb Funan will be punished by his nine tribes!

The next day.

The sky is slightly bright.

The front hall of the prince's bedroom.

A ray of sunlight penetrated the window and fell on Zhu Gaoxu's face.

He quickly opened his eyes, looked at the group of guards at the entrance of the hall, and asked hurriedly: "Where is Fan Zhong?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Fan Zhong is serving His Highness the Crown Prince to drink goat's milk."

Yuan Bin walked out of the queue and saluted respectfully.

Under normal circumstances, the chamberlain would serve the prince Zhu Zhanyu with medicine, but since Zhu Gaoxu learned that Zhu Zhanyu was seriously ill, he immediately ordered the palace to be sealed off, and only Fan Zhong and other close associates of the prince were allowed to take care of and guard Zhu Zhanyu.

Moreover, according to Zhu Gaoxu's request, everyone in the Imperial Hospital has to take turns checking the pulse of Prince Zhu Zhanyu every two-quarters of an hour in the past few days. If he wants to use medicine, he must obtain his permission.

Since Zhu Zhanyu took the medicine last night, no one has come to ask Zhu Gaoxu for instructions on taking the medicine again, and Fan Zhong is serving Zhu Zhanyu to drink milk at this time, which shows that the prince Zhu Zhanyu may have survived this menacing illness.

"The messenger from Dai Yuan is here to see me."

Zhu Gaoxu immediately ordered.

"Yes."

Yuan Bin respectfully accepted the order, then bowed and retreated.

After a while, Dait, the imperial hospital's envoy, came to the hall door.

After bowing and saluting, he secretly looked at Zhu Gaoxu and found that he had not slept all night. Although he was tired, his eyes were bright and his body was obviously still strong.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness has passed the most dangerous stage. He will be able to get out of bed and walk in a hundred days, and he will be back to normal in half a year."

Dete said respectfully.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded first, but then suddenly remembered something, and immediately frowned and asked: "The prince has just arrived, and he is in the prime of life. If it is just hyperactivity of liver yang and shortness of breath attacking the heart, how can it be so serious? , you need to recuperate for half a year?"

Date knew that Zhu Gaoxu had a broad knowledge and knew everything about yin and yang and the five elements, astronomy, geography, medicine and arithmetic. It was only normal to raise this kind of question now.

But he didn't know why Zhu Zhanyu's qi and blood surged to such an extent, so he could only answer truthfully: "Reporting to your Majesty, His Royal Highness is in the prime of life, but His Highness is so angry that his heart and blood are rushing too much, and he is injured. The internal organs were affected. Although not paralyzed, there was blood stasis and congested arteries, making it difficult to move. Treated with medicinal decoction and massage guidance, the blood stasis could be dispersed within a hundred days, and I could get out of bed and walk. After half a year, the congested arteries could be unblocked, and I could recover. As before."

Dai Te is the youngest son of Dai Sigong, a master of traditional Chinese medicine in Hongwu and Yongle dynasties. He was born in the first year of Hongwu and is now 75 years old.

He received the true inheritance of his father's medical knowledge. He was recruited into Taiyuan Hospital in the early years of Qianxi. With his extraordinary medical skills, he rose through the ranks. In the eighth year of Qianxi, he was promoted to the director of Taiyuan Hospital by Zhu Gaoxu.

Therefore, Zhu Gaoxu recognized Dai Te's character and medical skills very much.

After listening to Deite's explanation, he finally let go of his anxious heart and exhaled heavily.

Then, he put the sword in his hand back into the scabbard and ordered in a loud voice: "The Taiyuan Hospital has contributed greatly to the treatment of the prince. The envoy of the Taiyuan Hospital will be rewarded with five thousand yuan in gold coins. The other medical officers who followed him will all be given one thousand yuan in gold coins and will be given posthumously to the emperor." I would like to express my gratitude to the young senior official and give him a generous burial."

Five thousand gold coins are equivalent to 5000 silver coins.

Zhu Gaoxu's reward is not ungenerous.

"On behalf of all the medical officers of Taitai Hospital, I would like to thank Your Majesty for the reward."

Dete bowed and said.

"Go back."

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand and said.

Dete said respectfully: "Old minister, I resign."

"Yuan Bin, please send the envoy Dai Yuan back to the Royal Pharmacy for check-in, and bring the decoction and medicine for the prince to take. If the prince's physical condition is still good after three days, let them out of the palace."

Zhu Gaoxu watched Date leave and at the same time gave instructions to Yuan Bin beside him.

"Yes."

Yuan Bin bowed to receive the order.

After a while.

Prince's bedroom.

Zhu Gaoxu sat beside the bed and couldn't help but burst into tears when he looked at the prince Zhu Zhanyu who was blue, saggy and depressed.

He knew that Zhu Zhanyu's appearance was an obvious symptom of cerebral infarction.

"Yu'er, can you tell me now what happened that made you behave like this?"

Zhu Gaoxu held Zhu Zhanyu's left hand and asked with a haggard expression.

"The Empress is here."

Just when Zhu Zhanyu was about to speak, the eunuchs' singing and cheering sounded outside the palace.

"mother."

After Zhu Zhanyu saw Li Yao, who had white hair and beard, he immediately struggled to stand up and salute, but was held down by Zhu Gaoxu. "Don't move around, you may aggravate the condition."

Li Yao knew something about the disease of qi and blood retrograde, and knew that Zhu Zhanyu now had to rest. He first used decoction and massage to activate blood circulation and disperse blood stasis, and then he could get out of bed and walk for rehabilitation treatment.

Her face was stained with tears, and she had obviously been crying all night.

Seeing the haggard expressions of Li Yao and Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Zhanyu felt deeply remorseful and cried: "It's all my son... who trusted the villain easily. Everything is... my son's fault."

At this time, Li Yao walked to the bed and sat down, holding the hands of Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Zhanyu.

She burst into tears and cried: "My son, what is it that makes you so angry? Why is it like this? Why is it like this!"

Zhu Zhanyu burst into tears and said: "Father, mother, the child is unfilial... The child has entrusted someone to a bad person... Liang Siam... I'm afraid there will be chaos..."

Although he didn't say it directly, Zhu Gaoxu and Li Yao immediately reacted and quickly guessed it.

"Don't worry, Dad is here for everything."

Zhu Gaoxu let go of his hand, patted the back of Zhu Zhanyu's hand gently, and said with a domineering look that looked down on the world: "Whoever dares to disturb Funan, I will punish him from the nine tribes!"

After half an hour.

Hall of Martial Arts.

Zhu Gaoxu retreated, leaving only Kang Ping and Yu Qian who had been summoned.

"Yu Qian, are you guilty?"

Zhu Gaoxu asked without any emotion.

"The humble minister has committed the capital crime of deceiving the emperor, and is willing to be executed. I just ask that your majesty will be lenient and spare the guilty minister's family."

Yu Qian bowed to the ground and replied respectfully.

Zhu Gaoxu pretended to be confused and said, "Why did you deceive me?"

Yu Qian opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly stopped, and finally chose to remain silent.

Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have guessed that Yu Qian would be like this and didn't think it was against him.

He was very satisfied with Qian's loyalty, so he changed the subject and said, "Yang Wei, the governor of southern Siam, and Liu Xin, the governor of northern Siam, do you know these two people?"

When Yu Qian heard this, he suddenly trembled, his heart was shaken, and his back was soon soaked with cold sweat.

After hesitating for a moment, he trembled and replied: "Your Majesty, Yang Wei and Gui Chen were Jinshi... in the same year. Liu Xin and Gui Chen had... a friendship as colleagues."

"Then tell me how these two people became governors."

Zhu Gaoxu said indifferently.

"The guilty minister obeys the order."

After Yu Qian accepted the order, he slowly gave a brief introduction to Yang Wei and Liu Xin.

Yang Wei was born in the 31st year of Hongwu. He was the son of Yang Bangji's brother and cousin of Yang Wenbin. He was a Jinshi in the late Yongle period. In the early years of Qianxi, he served as the general secretary of Zhanshifu in the East Palace.

The Tongshisheren is in charge of the etiquette of pilgrimage, farewell, and audience in the East Palace, and is responsible for condolences and other matters. Whenever the ministers of the imperial court send congratulations to the prince, enter notes, spring, and calendar, the Tongshisheren is responsible for guiding and filing cases.

It can be said that Tongshishe was regarded as the prince's confidant despite his low position and power.

In the 12th year of Qianxi's reign, the first Ming expedition to Luchuan broke out. Yang Wei assisted Prince Zhu Zhanyu in arranging grain, grass and baggage and made great contributions.

Because Yang Wei was Yang Bangji's nephew and was extremely talented, he was deeply appreciated by Zhu Zhanyu and Zhu Gaoxu, his father and son.

In the 15th year of Qianxi reign, Yang Wei was promoted to the prefect of Luchuan by Zhu Gaoxu after being recommended by the prince Zhu Zhanyu. Because of his outstanding political achievements, he was promoted to the chief secretary of Mengdian to participate in politics the following year, and was later promoted to the chief envoy of Mengdian.

At the end of the first month of the 18th year of Qianxi reign, Prince Zhu Zhanyu promoted Yang Wei to the post of governor of Siam after being ordered to supervise the country.

Liu Xin was born in the first year of Yongle, from Fengtai, Shuntian Prefecture. His ancestors were all bridge builders for three generations.

In the early years of Qianxi, the imperial court set up six real governors in the desert. Prince Zhu Zhanyu was ordered to take charge of the affairs of Fuxuan in Mobei. While relocating the population and enriching Mobei, he also formulated investment policies to promote the industrial and commercial prosperity of Longcheng in Mobei.

During that period, Liu Xin sold his property and hired thousands of workers to go north to Mobei. He actively responded to Prince Zhu Zhanyu's road construction policy, contracted various sections of road construction projects, and completed the project on schedule according to quality and quantity, thus winning Zhu Zhan's favor. Domain appreciation.

After Prince Zhu Zhanyu returned to Beijing, he recommended Liu Xin to join the Ministry of Works and serve as the chief of the maintenance office of the Ministry of Works, with a rank of nine.

Later, Liu Xin repeatedly made contributions to the construction of cross-river bridges and was promoted to Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Industry.

At the beginning of the 15th year of Qianxi reign, the Railway Department of the Ministry of Industry encountered difficulties in building a railway bridge across the Yellow River. Liu Xin provided a new idea for building a railway bridge across the Yellow River and built a model of the bridge himself.

His idea and model were verified by a group of bridge builders from the Ministry of Industry and found to be feasible, so Prince Zhu Zhanyu reported the matter to Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaoxu issued an order to commend Liu Xin and promote him to the rank of doctor in the Ministry of Industry.

In the 16th year of Qianxi's reign, Liu Xin was appointed as the prefect of Vientiane by Zhu Gaoxu after being recommended by the prince Zhu Zhanyu. Because of his outstanding political achievements, he was promoted to the chief secretary of Meng Lao to participate in politics the following year, and was later promoted to the chief envoy of Meng Lao.

At the end of the first month of last year, after Prince Zhu Zhanyu was ordered to supervise the country, he promoted Liu Xin to the position of governor of northern Siam.
