Daming: I am the Crown Prince

Chapter 20 There is no way to survive!
Old Zhu's hands are quite strong. Even though he is over 60 years old, he is still strong and powerful. He is still showing mercy.

Based on Zhu Yunhuan's experience of being beaten since he was a child, if he acted as if nothing had happened at this time, he would most likely continue to be beaten, or even be beaten even harder next time.

So he was limping, as if he was really hurt.

Looking at Zhu Yunhuan's limping back, Old Zhu suddenly felt distressed and worried that he had been too heavy-handed.

Immediately send someone to call the imperial physician to apply medicine to Zhu Yunhuan.

But just after leaving Old Zhu's sight, Zhu Yunhuan walked briskly, "Who can stand being beaten every other day!"

Zhu Yunxun, feeling somewhat depressed, returned to Rouyi Palace. He was very happy to see his two sisters there.

"We will leave the palace in two days to pay respect to our mother."

Zhu Yourong was stunned for a moment, then asked excitedly, "Little brother, can you leave the palace too?"

Zhu Youling asked, "Didn't Grandfather tell us to leave the palace once every ten days?"

Zhu Yunhuan said confidently, "I made a scene again. He still hasn't let me leave the palace today. I'll just make a scene again tomorrow."

Zhu Yourong said worriedly, "Little brother, it's not a good idea for you to do this. The family son is respectful to the emperor's grandfather. If you make trouble every day, the emperor's grandfather might get annoyed."

Seeing the sisters' worried expressions, Zhu Yunhuan smiled and said, "It's okay, I know what's going on. He gets annoyed with me only because I don't make trouble."

Zhang Fusheng ran over, looking nervous, "Your Highness, is the imperial physician here to give you medicine?"

"Apply medicine? What medicine?" Zhu Yunhuan was stunned, then asked, "Apply medicine to me? Who asked them to come?"

Zhu Yourong became flustered and asked, "Little brother, how did you get hurt?"

Zhang Fusheng quickly replied, "Your Highness, the imperial physician is giving you medicine on the orders of His Majesty."

Zhu Yunhuan laughed in silence, and then said, "Let the imperial physician go back. No, if he goes back, the emperor will know that I am pretending."

Zhu Yourong was very worried and kept asking, "Little brother, what's going on?"

Zhu Yunhuan explained with some embarrassment, "It was my grandfather who beat me up, and now he has someone come to apply medicine. He has done everything, good or bad!"

Zhu Yourong and Zhu Youling were terrified when they heard this. Why did their younger brother always blame the Emperor's grandfather?
And why did your royal grandfather always beat Yunhu?

Zhu Yourong and the others really didn't understand some of the situations, but Zhu Yunhuan knew about them and didn't think there was anything wrong with this way of getting along.

It’s better to apply medicine first, not because I was injured, but to reassure some people.

As soon as the imperial physician left Zhu Yunhuan's bedroom, Zhu Yourong and the others immediately surrounded him and asked questions. After knowing that Zhu Yunhuan was not injured, they were no longer worried.

A eunuch also asked a lot of questions in detail, and then hurried towards the Qianqing Palace to report to His Majesty the Emperor.

After hearing the report, Old Zhu was both angry and amused. That grandson was really a worry. He was very good at pretending and even he was almost fooled.

Smiling and shaking his head, Old Zhu went to rest as he had to attend court tomorrow.

After the new day began, Zhu Yuanzhang was still attending court as usual, but he felt that the day was too peaceful. This was originally a good thing, but he was sensitive and felt that this was the biggest abnormality.

Old Zhu asked, "How are the emperor's grandchildren today?"

The young eunuch immediately replied, "After His Royal Highness the Second Grandson came to the East Palace after the funeral, he urgently summoned the imperial physician."

Old Zhu immediately stood up and asked, "What's wrong? Why do you need to summon the imperial physician?"

Old Zhu couldn't help but be afraid. He had experienced too many things over the years. His eldest son had just passed away, and Old Zhu couldn't withstand any blow.

The young eunuch quickly replied, "His Royal Highness the Fifth Grandson had a convulsion last night, and His Royal Highness the Second Grandson stayed by his side all night."

Old Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, then sat down with weak legs and feet.

The fifth grandson of the emperor, Zhu Yunhuoxi, was born on June 12 last year, but unfortunately he lost his father before he was even one year old.

Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunhuan and Zhu Yunxi were all born to Lu, and she gave birth to three sons.

Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Yunhuan, Zhu Yourong and Zhu Youling were born to Zhu Biao's original wife, Crown Princess Chang. In addition to them, Zhu Biao also had two daughters. However, their mothers were concubines and their presence was insufficient.

As long as everything is fine, this is Lao Zhu’s greatest hope.

Things like children's convulsions certainly need attention, but Zhu Yuanzhang also knows that there are some things that he cannot avoid even if he is the emperor.

The imperial physician should be allowed to go, and the importance should be given. However, he was not able to do anything else.

After calming down, Old Zhu asked, "Does the Third Grandson of the Emperor know about this?"

The young eunuch answered cautiously, "Maybe they know. The Prince of Qin, the Prince of Jin and others already know about it, and they even went to the East Palace to inquire."

Old Zhu asked again, "Where is the emperor's third grandson? Didn't he go?"

The young eunuch replied, "After His Royal Highness the Third Grandson of the Emperor had been guarding the coffin, he returned to the Rouyi Palace. Now His Royal Highness the Fourth Grandson of the Emperor is guarding the coffin."

The anger in Lao Zhu's heart suddenly bubbled up and he couldn't suppress it at all.

Zhu Yunxi is the fifth child, and he is only one year old. Although he and Yunxun are not brothers, they are still brothers after all. Gao Chi and his men knew that they should go over and ask, but Yunxun, the elder brother, didn't go over?

Not to mention the coffin, only Yunxun, a seven or eight-year-old child, was left there. How ridiculous!

Thinking of this, Old Zhu was furious and said, "Call Zhu Yunhuan!"

Zhu Yunhuan felt a little puzzled that he was suddenly summoned, but after thinking about it carefully, he thought there was no problem, so he went straight to Wuying Palace.

As soon as he arrived at Wuying Palace, Zhu Yunhuan felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. "Your Highness, I, Zhu Yunhuan, pay my respects to your Majesty the Grandfather."

Old Zhu didn't reply, but just stared at Zhu Yunhuan.

After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang asked directly, "You said that if Yunwen became the emperor, you would definitely have no chance of survival. Then tell me, if you became the emperor, would Yunwen and the other three have any chance of survival?"

Zhu Yunhuan sensed that Old Zhu had a bad tone, so he did not dare to be clever. "Replying to Your Majesty, although I am an unfilial grandson, it is my duty to look after my brothers and take care of them."

"What a duty!" Old Zhu was furious, and asked angrily, "Your younger brother had a convulsion last night, and even your cousins ​​came to ask about it. How could you just ignore it? Your father's funeral hasn't started yet, how dare you let Yunhuan stay alone in front of the coffin?"

Old Zhu had reason to be angry. His eldest son and five sons seemed to be doing well.

But Zhu Xiongying is long gone. Look at the present, Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunhuan are fighting for the throne, and the quarrel between the brothers is becoming more and more obvious.

Zhu Yunxun was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Did Lao Wu have a seizure last night?"

Old Zhu stared at Zhu Yunhuan's expression and hesitated, "You don't know?"

Seeing Zhu Yunhuan shaking his head, Old Zhu suddenly stared at the young eunuch fiercely, "Who gave you the courage?"

The young eunuch immediately knelt down and kowtowed heavily, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! I thought His Royal Highness the Third Grandson knew about it!"

Old Zhu was so angry that he laughed and said sarcastically, "What a thought! I thought that after I killed a servant a few days ago, you guys should be more careful! Great, you have really become successful!"

Zhu Yunwen probably understood something, and said to Old Zhu with a smile, "Grandfather, you should be relieved. This shows that Yunwen is smart. The fifth child may have had a convulsion. It is common for children to have convulsions. It is useless to have a royal doctor. He is so smart that he can even think of tricking me when my younger brother is sick, making me unfaithful and unfilial. How resourceful!"

Old Zhu came to his senses at this time, pointed at the young eunuch and said, "Come here, drag him out and torture him!"

The young eunuch cried and wailed, he had only taken a small amount of money, and when he reported it, he had used some shady writing and some vague ideas. But now, because of greed, he was going to lose his life.

After the young eunuch was dragged away, Old Zhu and Zhu Yunhuan stared at each other in the Wuying Hall.

Old Zhu suddenly said, "He is smart, and you are not bad either."

Zhu Yunhuan complained, "I told you that if he became the emperor, I would definitely have no chance of survival. Now it seems that if he becomes the emperor, the fourth and fifth sons will probably not survive."

Zhu was stunned when he heard this, and then he said, "If you keep making trouble like this, I'm afraid you will really have no way to survive if you can't become the emperor. After all, the fourth and fifth brothers are brothers from the same mother, so they will definitely survive. We are now afraid that if you become the emperor, Yunwen will have no way to survive, and the fourth and fifth brothers will have no way to survive either."

"If I become the emperor, all three of them can survive. My hands are not stained with the blood of my brothers." Zhu Yunhuan said firmly, "As for him, even if he doesn't have his brothers' blood on his hands, he will definitely die because of him!"

Zhu Yunhuan's death in history was unclear. When he was 20 years old, he also died in a confused manner in the high walls of Fengyang. The fifth son, Zhu Yunxi, was originally placed in the Eastern Mausoleum to serve the mausoleum of the crown prince Zhu Biao, but he was suddenly burned to death in a fire at the age of 16.

When Zhu Yunwen became emperor, none of Zhu Biao's descendants had a chance to survive!
