[Ming] the son of the eunuch

Li Jinglong and Xu Yaozu originally planned to visit His Royal Highness King Yan who fell from a horse and broke his leg the next day.But what was strange was that they had just left Xiyuan in the morning of the second day, and they met several familiar generals of the Palace Guard Army.

The other party warmly invited the two of them to go out for a stroll, and repeatedly hinted at the two of them.Tell them His Royal Highness King Yan is in a bad mood recently, and ask them not to bother for the time being.

The generals of the guard army were all people who had dealt with Xu Yaozu in the early years and went to Mongolia with him to go through life and death together, so Xu Yaozu felt a little bit hard to please for a while.In addition, when he saw his sister and brother-in-law, he always felt inexplicably guilty, so he followed the other party's wishes to persuade Li Jinglong to be calm and calm down.

Ever since he said something wrong yesterday and received such a cold glance from King Yan, Li Jinglong felt a little unhappy in his heart.But he is not a fool, knowing that as the other party, he can only bear this anger for the time being.So now that Xu Yaozu had plans not to visit King Yan for the time being, he immediately complied with his intention.

The two originally wanted to temporarily hide from His Royal Highness King Yan who had just broken his leg, and they wanted to visit him after his mood stabilized.

But for several days after that, old friends came over, and they were all pestered.Due to various things, they couldn't go smoothly to the Empress Dowager, and the two finally noticed something unusual.

"There were fighting sounds in the Hall of Carrying Transport that day, and there must be something strange about the presence of so many old friends who have prevented us from going to the Hall of Carrying Transport in the past few days!"

"I sent a lot of people to investigate, and it turned out that at this time, there is no one outside discussing the accidental fall of King Yan, which is obviously unusual!"

Xu Yaozu and Li Jinglong analyzed the whole night and the next morning.After having breakfast just now, the two of them hurried to the Chengyun Hall.

Along the way, just as they expected, someone stopped them again.But this time, the two people who had made up their minds did not give each other any face, and walked directly to their destination.

"My lords, Your Highness is feeling a little ill. I don't want to see any guests for the time being, please go back!" Not long after the two were stopped by the guards at the gate of the Chengyun Hall, Ji Gang who heard the news and walked out immediately said.

Ji Gang's actions are very respectful, but the rejection and no doubt in his tone are very obvious.

"Presumptuous, I am His Royal Highness King Yan -----" Xu Yaozu has been patient for a long time when he is always stopped along the way.Seeing that he was stopped again when he was about to go in, he immediately yelled loudly.

"Ji Gang is very clear about who your lord is, but Ji's master is His Highness King Yan who is lying inside. In the entire Yanjing and the entire Yan Palace, I only listen to His Highness!" Xu Shi has been under too much pressure these days, As soon as Ji Gang changed from his usual calmness and forbearance, he immediately raised his voice.

As soon as he said this, the guards of the palace and Xu Yaozu's subordinates all looked sideways.

"You---" Because you are the eldest son of the founding father Xu Da, and because of your outstanding military exploits in chasing the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty in the early years.In the past 20 years, few people have dared to speak to Xu Yaozu like this.

With a sneer in his heart, looking at the bold and presumptuous slave in front of him, Xu Yaozu immediately sarcastically said: "Well, you slave, is Yan Wang's mansion so arrogant? Yan Wang is like this---"

"Brother, stop talking!" Xu Shi, who had just walked out of the inner hall, was already in a bad mood.Now hearing what my brother said, he immediately looked disappointed and said: "Brother, this Palace of Yan Palace is not only the residence of His Highness, it is also my sister's home. He is the commander-in-chief of the three guards of the Palace and the guard of the Palace, chosen by His Highness." You can only listen to His Highness. Why do you make things difficult for him, and why do you make things difficult for your own sister like this!"

Everyone didn't expect her to come out, and many people immediately knelt down.

"I---I---I---" Sensitively aware that there was something in her words, Xu Yaozu's face burst into red.

He is the eldest in the family, because of the love of the two elders in the family, he loves his younger sister very much.In his impression, his younger sister has always been a gentle and generous woman who never embarrasses others in public.Seeing that her complexion was not right now, he immediately gave up his plan to force his way in, and hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Yihua, I was just worried about Your Highness. Your Highness is my brother-in-law, and I was just worried about my heart, so I lost my composure for a while. Don't choose anything!"

"Really?" There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, but he thought that he had always loved himself.So with a soft sigh, Xu immediately said softly: "Come in!"

"Princess, Your Highness said that he doesn't want to see guests today!" Ji Gang objected immediately!

Glancing at him lightly, Mrs. Xu could not refuse and said, "One of them is my elder brother, the other is His Highness's cousin, neither of them are outsiders. And I will personally bring them in to see His Highness, and His Highness will definitely not blame me at that time." .”

"..."

Ji Gang was speechless for a moment, but when he was in a daze, Xu had already walked in with Xu Yaozu and Li Jinglong.

"Forget it, Your Highness won't blame you!"

Zhu Neng, who had just rushed over, comforted Ji Gang when he saw this, his face changed after watching the inside, Ji Gang finally didn't say a word.

When Ji Gang was restless outside, Xu and Li, who finally walked into the inner hall, looked at the obviously gloomy and dim Chengyun Hall, but they were obviously taken aback.

After looking up and seeing that all the windows in the entire hall had been sealed and heavy curtains were hung, the suspicion in their hearts became more and more serious.

"Your Highness, I brought my brother and Cao Guogong to see you!" Gently pushed open a palace door inside, and then Mrs. Xu greeted softly and walked in.

Xu and Li hurriedly followed, and the first thing they saw was rows of thick candles all around that illuminated the entire huge room as if it were daytime.Then there was His Royal Highness King Yan who sat behind the desk and slowly looked up at them.

"Your Highness, your leg?" Xu Yaozu immediately looked worried after the two bowed down to salute.

"It's okay, it's just broken!" Zhu Di looked at Xu with a blank expression and said lightly.

Seeing his extremely indifferent attitude, Xu Yihua suddenly panicked.

"I'm going to make a pot of tea!" Obviously she could call someone in, but the flustered Xu hurried out by herself.

Zhu Di's attitude was quite blunt, hearing his answer like this.Xu Yaozu and Li Jinglong were a little embarrassed for no reason, and they didn't know what to do now.

After a while, maybe he realized that he made the two of them uncomfortable, so he sighed softly.Only then did Zhu Di put down the book he had been holding in his hand, raised his right hand and said kindly to them, "Brother, Jing Long, come and sit down!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Heaving a sigh of relief, Xu Yaozu quickly stepped forward and sat down on the red pear wood armchair.

"Your Highness, it was Jing Long who was too reckless that day. That's why he said something wrong for a while, don't blame your nephew!" Seeing that King Yan took the initiative to call his name, Li Jinglong immediately walked over and said cautiously.

"It's okay, I just heard the news that day and I was in a bad mood, so I was a little angry at you."

He said something lightly, seeing Mrs. Xu who had just left brought someone in to serve tea, so Zhu Di became quiet again.

"Your Highness, is your leg injured seriously? Do you want me to write a note to report to the emperor, so that the emperor can send you a few more imperial doctors with excellent medical skills!" I couldn't bear this quiet atmosphere, and seeing my sister come over.So Xu Yaozu immediately suggested, and Li Jinglong also agreed after hearing this.

Hearing Xu Yaozu's words, Zhu Di didn't make a sound.Under the candlelight, his expression was dark and unclear, which made Xu Yaozu's heart tense for no reason.

"The imperial physicians in the eldest brother's palace were all given to His Highness by the late emperor. They are all very skilled in medicine, so don't worry about it for now!" Seeing that her husband didn't answer immediately, Mrs. Xu stepped forward gently and walked behind King Yan .While raising his hand to press his shoulder, he said gratefully.

"So it's like this!" Xu's attitude finally calmed down Xu Yaozu's restless heart.Slowly looking at the little eunuch who was making tea for him, he suddenly realized that it seems that young and beautiful court ladies are rarely seen in the Yan Palace, and Xu Yaozu looked at his sister with a smile that was not a smile.

"Your Highness, your legs are really fine, right? The safety of my Ming Dynasty in the north depends on you and Uncle Ning. Your body is related to the safety of the border, and there is no room for sloppy!" Seeing the opposite, Wei Guogong closed his mouth. , Li Jinglong looked at the desk standing in front of King Yan and said, still a little worried.He and Wei Guogong personally saw the wound on King Yan's body that day, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't doubt it.But in the past few days, the Palace of King Yan was full of weirdness, which made him feel for no reason that something extraordinary should have happened.

"It's okay—cough——" Zhu Di paused slightly when he heard Li Jinglong's words, and then suddenly coughed.

"Your Highness, what's the matter?" She seemed to have never seen him coughing in the past few days, so Xu hurriedly stepped in front of him, stood beside his chair, and stroked his chest gently.

Li Jinglong and Xu Yaozu glanced at each other, with worried expressions on their faces, and fell silent.

"Your Highness, why are you coughing again? Could it be a cold?" Changsheng walked in at this moment, holding a bowl of medicinal soup.Hearing Zhu Di's cough, he immediately yelled.

"It's okay---cough cough cough---" Putting his hand in front of his mouth, Zhu Di immediately shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

"Changsheng, how do you take care of His Highness?" Seeing that King Yan was coughing badly, Mrs. Xu asked Changsheng sternly in a moment of anxiety.

"I --- the concubine makes atonement, I'll call someone to call Li Taiyi again!" His face turned pale, and he hurriedly put the hot medicinal soup on the desk in front of King Yan, Changsheng turned around and was about to go out.

"It's okay if I say it's okay, you don't have to call the imperial doctor all the time!" The voice suddenly became louder, and Zhu Di raised his hand and pushed Xu Shi in front of him, his face livid.

No one expected King Yan to make such a move, everyone was shocked.

Putting her hands on the desk behind her, she felt the desk move, and Xu's face turned pale.

"Your Highness?" Xu Yaozu didn't want his sister to be wronged, so he stood up immediately.

"Brother, I'm fine!" The voice was full of grievances, looking at her husband with his head down, Xu said in a trance with disbelief in his eyes.

"Princess, are you okay?" Or Changsheng reacted very quickly, trotting forward to check Xu's situation.

"I--I'm fine!" In fact, it was just a slight bump and it didn't hurt at all, but this was the first time my husband treated me like this in more than ten years.Moreover, she still treats herself like this in front of her own brother, so Xu Shi still feels a little unbelievable.

"Is it my king's fault? Changsheng helps the princess go down and have a check." His lips moved, and he slowly raised his head. Zhu Di's voice was very judo.

"Your Highness, I'm fine. I'll take my brother and Cao Guogong down now. Don't be angry!" Blaming his abnormal attitude today on his own presumptuous assertion, Xu hurriedly smiled and said cautiously.

Hearing Xu's words, Zhu Di suddenly fell silent, and suddenly looked at Xu with a very complicated expression.

Zhu Di's eyes were too strange, for no reason Xu suddenly felt as if she was facing a stranger she didn't know at all.

"Your Highness----" Xu Shi said nonuo, even she didn't know what she was going to say.

"Your Highness, are your legs really okay?" Li Jinglong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly strode forward, looking at Zhu Di's legs behind the desk, and said in a strange tone.

Zhu Di suddenly raised his head to look at Li Jinglong, and Xu Shi also looked sideways at Li Jinglong, somewhat puzzled.

"My God, my medicine, Dian---Dan---His Highness---"

When Xu turned her side, Changsheng behind her suddenly turned pale and screamed.

After hearing the words, everyone in the room, including Zhu Di, all looked at the desk, and saw that the good medicine bowl that had been placed by Changsheng just now had tilted down.

And the steaming black concoction inside was slowly flowing down the edge of the table little by little.

After realizing that the legs of King Yan happened to be under the edge of the table, Xu Yaozu and Xu Yihua looked at each other, and they all turned pale with shock.
