On September [-]th of the tenth year of Hongwu, Cui Miao was summoned to Prince Yan's mansion, knelt down at the door of the study at the suggestion of Shen Qing, and Shen Qing went straight into the study.Wang Yan followed closely behind, closed the door, and stood on the steps.

Zhu Di was sitting behind the table reading a book, when he saw Shen Qing coming in, he put the book aside.

Shen Qing came to the table and saluted, and said: "See the lord for humble posts."

Zhu Di waved his hands and said with a smile: "Zhan Lin, you and my brother are the only ones here, don't bother with these red tapes."

Shen Qing still insisted: "My lord, etiquette cannot be discarded!"

Zhu Di said helplessly: "As the emperor said, Zhan Lin is good at everything, but he is too rigid!"

"I know my mistakes in my humble position, thank you, my lord, for not guilty!"

Knowing Shen Qing's temperament, Zhu Di no longer forced himself, and changed the subject: "Did you bring him?"

"Go back to the prince, he has been escorted to the palace."

"Well, what about Cui Miao?"

"Knowing that I was wrong, I knelt outside the door."

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows, and said, "Then Zhan Lin, tell me, what's wrong with him?"

"The mistake is being too proud and overreaching."

Zhu Di was a little puzzled, and asked directly: "Oh? How to solve it?"

Shen Qing recounted the conversation between Cui Gui and Cui Miao in detail, without any increase or decrease, without partiality.Shen Qing is Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted son, who was sent by Zhu Yuanzhang to protect and assist Zhu Di. The two have been together for nearly five years. Shen Qing is very clear about Zhu Di's personality. Suspicion, so that the balance in the heart is tilted, will make the person who wants to maintain it come to a bad end.

After Shen Qing finished speaking, he quietly stood aside, waiting for Zhu Di's reaction.

"So, this Cui Miao has a bit of character."

Seeing what Zhu Di said, Shen Qing breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that Cui Miao's fate was saved.No matter how many reasons Cui Miao has, be it intentionally or unintentionally, he should not use Zhu Di. He is a lord, whoever wants to kill him is just a matter of one sentence, not to mention that Cui Miao is indeed suspected of deceiving and using him.

"It's too rigid. If you ask the prince directly for help, you don't have to be in a dilemma today."

"It's better to be rigid, people who are too smooth often don't live long."

"Yes, I am educated in a humble position. My lord, please ask for instructions on how they should deal with it."

Zhu Di sneered and said: "Dare to tamper with the army book, you really have the guts of a bear! This king wants to see if their necks are strong enough! The chief culprit is the leader, and all adult men in the three generations of his relatives will be exiled to the army!"

"Yes!" Shen Qing asked calmly: "My lord, what about Cui Miao?"

"Let him kneel, long memory."

Shen Qing bowed and replied: "Yes, I will take orders from a humble position!"

"Leave these matters to others, and Zhan Lin will play chess with the king."

Zhu Di summoned Wang Yan, gave some instructions, and then played Go with Shen Qing. It lasted all morning, and Cui Miao outside the door had already knelt for more than two hours.

Dry mouth, dizziness, knee pain that was unbearable before, but now he has lost consciousness. He looked at the attendants coming in and out of the study, and cold sweat dripped down drop by drop. Miao saw that they had double images, one body, two heads, four pairs of eyes and two mouths, all of their faces were distorted and deformed, just like the monster who chooses to eat people...

With a "bang", Cui Miao fell to the ground straight, Wang Yan outside the door anxiously ran over to check, seeing that Cui Miao's condition was not right, he gritted his teeth and went into the study.

"My lord, I have something to report."

Zhu Di, who was on his head, frowned, and asked displeasedly: "What's the matter?"

"Go back to the lord, Cui Miao passed out, it seems that the situation is a bit bad." Wang Yan's tone was flat, without any emotion, because he also knew Zhu Di and knew how to treat Cui Miao best.

Playing chess with great interest, Zhu Di completely forgot about Cui Miao, and said in surprise: "He has been kneeling?"

Wang Yan said truthfully: "Back to the lord, Cui Miao has been kneeling since entering the palace early in the morning until just now, her waist is straight, and she hasn't moved a bit!"

Even a servant like him who waited on people all the year round couldn't last so long. Wang Yan didn't expect that a weak-looking scholar could be so hard-boned, which had to be admired!

Zhu Di threw the chess piece in his hand into the chess box, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said: "Go, send it to the wing room, find a doctor to show him, there is no room for loss, do you understand?"

Wang Yan heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and quickly bowed in response: "Yes, my lord, I will take my leave."

Wang Yan stepped back, Zhu Di picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea, and said admiringly, "Zhan Lin, this Cui Miao is as old-fashioned as you are!"

"A literati has the character of a literati, and a military general has the integrity of a military general. Only such people can assist His Majesty and keep our Ming Dynasty prosperous and prosperous forever."

"That's right." Zhu Di nodded approvingly, and said, "Zhan Lin will take a look on my behalf, don't do anything wrong with such a frail body."

Shen Qing got up to leave, Zhu Di watched Shen Qing go out, picked up the chess piece again, and said to himself: "Small old-fashioned, tough, not bad, not bad!"

Shen Qing exited the study, stopped an attendant, asked where the room was, and walked quickly.When he entered the room, the doctor was already treating Cui Miao, and Wang Yan was watching from the side. When he saw Shen Qing coming in, he quickly saluted and said, "I've seen Shen Qianhu."

The doctor was about to salute, but Shen Qing stopped him and said: "There is no need to be too polite, let's get a diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible."

The doctor nodded, sat back in front of the bed to check his pulse, rolled up Cui Miao's trouser legs, and checked his knees. The whole leg was bruised and swollen, spreading all the way to the thigh.The doctor pressed the button, and every time he pressed it, Cui Miao frowned, showing pain on his face.

The doctor heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this, turned to look at Shen Qing, and saluted: "My lord, his leg is fine, and it's best to stay in bed for half a month. The reason why he fainted was mainly caused by dehydration. There is no need to prescribe medicine. Some light salt water will replenish the water in the body.”

Shen Qing nodded slightly, and asked: "How to reduce swelling?"

The doctor replied: "Cold compress first, change the water every quarter of an hour, and change the hot compress after an hour. Two hours a day, after three days, the swelling should subside."

Shen Qing didn't speak any more, Wang Yan summoned what the maid was going to use, brought fine salt, adjusted it to a large bowl of light salt water under the doctor's guidance, and fed it to Cui Miao little by little.When the bowl was half full, Cui Miao stood up suddenly, spit out all the water that was fed, and then fell straight on the bed, her lips were chapped, and her face was as pale as paper.

The doctor's face changed suddenly, and he said, "Hey, you must feed it in, otherwise you will continue to dehydrate and you may die!"

The maids did not dare to be negligent, and carefully fed Cui Miao water again, but how much Cui Miao vomited, so that the water vomited later was mixed with bile.

Wang Yan turned around anxiously, grabbed the doctor's clothes, and said, "Doctor, what should I do? You are talking!"

The doctor said in fear: "My lord, if you can't feed the water, there's nothing you can do about it!"

Wang Yan threatened: "You quack doctor, didn't you say nothing happened? Our family warns you, he is someone the prince cares about. If there is anything wrong, our family will take your head for business!"

The doctor quickly knelt down on the ground and hurriedly explained: "My lord, even if you call the imperial doctor, if you can't feed him with water, you are still helpless. My lord, if you want to save his life, you must find a way to feed him with water."

Just when everyone was confused, Shen Qing said aloud: "Wang Sheren stay, others go out."

Everyone looked at each other, Wang Yan looked at Shen Qing, and asked: "Shen Qianhu has a solution?"

Shen Qing nodded, Wang Yan waved everyone away when he saw this, and when the door was closed, he quickly asked: "Shen Qianhu, what should I do?"

Shen Qing said flatly: "You guard the door, no one is allowed to come in!"

Wang Yan was a little hesitant, but he had no choice but to listen to Shen Qing now.

Shen Qing came to the bed, put the bowl full of water on the bedside, half picked up Cui Miao's body, let him lean in his arms, and whispered in his ear: "Cui Miao, don't be afraid, I am Shen Qing , drink water, you can live if you drink it, and you can do what you want to do only if you live.”

Cui Miao only felt that there was a monster in his body. It opened its big black mouth and spit out black flames, burning the blood in his whole body.Fear, unprecedented fear, shrouded Cui Miao's soul. He struggled desperately to break free, but there were too many monsters around him, and each of them stared at him fiercely, as if the next second, he would Be food in their mouths!

"Cui Miao, Cui Miao,,,,,,"

The cool voice came intermittently, Cui Miao seemed to see hope, and shouted loudly: "Who? Who are you? Help me! I don't want to die, I still have a lot of things to do, my mother needs me, I can't die!"

"Cui Miao, don't be afraid, I'm Shen Qing, if you want to live, don't resist, drink the water, you can live and do what you want..."

"Drink water? Yes, there is water to put out the fire! Where is the water?"

The unconscious Cui Miao murmured: "Water, water,,,,,,"

Shen Qing quickly picked up the water bowl, handed it to Cui Miao's mouth, and fed it to him bit by bit, but after taking a few sips, he vomited it out again.Shen Qing ignored the wet clothes, and then said in Cui Miao's ear: "Cui Miao, drink it no matter how uncomfortable it is, if you want to live, you must drink all this water!"

"Water, water, it's so hot..." Cui Miao muttered, "I don't want to die..."

Just when Cui Miao thought that he was about to be burned to death, there was a sudden cold touch on his lips, he swallowed subconsciously, one mouthful after another, and stopped after drinking half a bowl, he sipped it dissatisfied lips, whispering: "Water, I want water,,,,,,"

Shen Qing waited for a while, and seeing that Cui Miao didn't vomit anymore, he fed the remaining water in again.After all the water was fed, the pain on Cui Miao's face gradually disappeared, Shen Qing couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, helped him tuck the corner of the quilt, got up and walked to the door.

Shen Qing looked at the stunned Wang Yan, and said flatly: "Today's matter is rotten in your stomach, otherwise you will know the consequences!"

Wang Yan swallowed his saliva, and hurriedly responded: "Shen Qianhu don't worry, I understand!"
