"The prince is so big!"
"You girl, are you talking nonsense again? Quickly wipe it clean for the prince, don't catch a cold."
"Hey... I don't know which family's young lady will be taken into the palace by the prince."
"Speak less. I don't know when the imperial doctor will be here."
In the northeastern corner of Yingtian City, within the Imperial City, where the East Palace is located, in a remote, lonely palace with few people around, two little maids were talking in a low voice.
The two of them held dry towels in their hands and were wiping the body of a young man who was lying on the bed with his eyes closed and his face pale, all wet.
It's early summer now, June is like a fire, the sun is scorching, and there are heat waves inside and outside the house, making people sweat profusely.
However, the young man lying on the bed had his eyebrows furrowed and his body was shivering.
A burst of cold air was sucked into his mouth.
Although his complexion was sickly and pale, the young man with a delicate and upright appearance suddenly opened his clear eyes, his sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and his spirit was instantly bright.
"Prince!"
"The prince is awake."
"This is great!"
The young man looked at the two little palace ladies in front of him with doubtful eyes, looked around at the surrounding buildings, and slowly said: "Where is this place?"
The younger Gong'e immediately said: "Prince, this is the palace..."
"Prince? The palace?" The young man murmured in a low voice.
Suddenly, he frowned, mountains and rivers gathered on his forehead, his heart ached, and his head was like a turbulent sea. Countless messages poured into my mind all at once.
Such an appearance shocked the two little maids beside the bed and was at a loss for a moment.
A few moments.
Zhu Yunxi (teng) took a long breath.
Yes, that's right, he traveled through time.
Today is the 24th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.
And he, Zhu Yunxi, was the direct grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the direct son of Zhu Biao, the most undisputed crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.
But it is also the Ming Dynasty clan that historians have written the least about.
Zhu Yunxi frowned lightly, looked at the two palace ladies in front of him who looked concerned, and waved his hands: "You... you two, please go down."
He can be regarded as a newcomer here. Although he has had countless reveries in the past, when the time-travel incident really happened to him, it was not something he could spend a short while.
Seeing the prince's serious expression, the two palace maids thought they were thinking about their situation in the east palace and bowed in low voices.
After Gong'e left, Zhu Yunxi relaxed his shoulders and looked thoughtful.
"Is it already the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu?"
He murmured in a low voice, but he remembered in his heart that next year, something earth-shaking happened in the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Biao, the crown prince who was known as the most worthy and blameless prince of the Ming Dynasty, was about to die because of Zhu Yuanzhang's intention to move the capital. After returning to Beijing from an inspection tour in Guanzhong, he contracted the cold and died.
Then came Zhu Yunwen, the eldest son of the concubine born to the Lu family. Because of his filial piety, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had lost his son in old age, appointed him as the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang then launched the final purge of former heroes in the court.
In the 31st year of Hongwu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, the Hongwu Emperor, passed away. Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne. Instigated by the incompetent and sycophantic Zuoer, he carried out a strategy of cutting down the vassal vassal, which in turn triggered the four-year-long war of the Ming Dynasty. The long-lasting peace battle.
As for Zhu Yunxi, the legitimate grandson of the Ming Emperor and the legitimate son of Prince Yiwen, he was completely transparent and had no existence.
Since Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, Zhu Yunxi was appointed as the King of Wu. Before he established the vassal in Hangzhou, King Yan was in trouble. In the thirty-fifth year of Hongwu (the fourth year of Jianwen), King Yan invaded Yingtian City.
Zhu Yunxi was demoted to the king of Guangze County, and later to a commoner, and was imprisoned in Fengyang, the central capital.
Until the end, he died in Zhongdu when he was less than forty years old.
"This kid is so unlucky!"
Zhu Yunxi cursed in a low voice. He was obviously the legitimate son and grandson of the Ming Dynasty, but because his mother and concubine died early, he was raised by his concubine Lu, and he had a weak character. As a result, he had no chance of being crowned the Ming Dynasty, and he died young. .
And all this will begin next year, the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu!
There was a hint of gloom on Zhu Yunxi's face.
In my memory, the reason why he looks like this today is because earlier, he accidentally fell into the lotus pond in the palace, choked on the water and caught cold, causing his soul to fly away, and that was why he came.
At that time, he was arguing with Zhu Yunwen about two sage articles in the morning class, and was finally lectured by his husband and Mr. Lu who came after hearing the news.
Zhu Yunxi lost his mother in his early years and was raised by Lu's side since he was a child. He developed a cowardly nature and dared not speak even if he was angry.
I went to the lotus pond to relax alone.
But he didn't want to suddenly feel that someone hit him hard behind him, which caused him great pain. Before he could react, he fell face-first into the lotus pond that was taller than a person.
The majestic Ming Dynasty Imperial City is the main site of the East Palace.
Even those forbidden soldiers who were killing talents were careful when walking on patrol, lest they disturb the countless nobles in the palace.
What's more, the people who can get to the lotus pond in the East Palace are probably just maids or eunuchs.
How could such a person run away in a panic, let alone knock Zhu Yunxi, who was standing by the lotus pond, into the water.
This was a premeditated murder!
The one who was killed was Zhu Yunxi, the legitimate son and grandson of the Ming Dynasty!
He didn't know whether this happened in the original history.
But now, it has really happened.
However, Zhu Yunxi showed a trace of frustration on his face and looked a little sad.
He didn't see the man's face at that time.
Even at this time, Zhu Yunxi wanted to testify, but he was unable to do so.
Even now Zhu Yunxi thinks that if this matter succeeds, the most beneficial ones are Lu and Zhu Yunwen.
But can he be asked to run up to Zhu Biao, point at the Lu family, and say that his mother-in-law wants to harm his legitimate son?
Talking without foundation will only cause trouble for him in the end, and it will also scare the enemy and make Lu feel defensive in the future.
"Mr. Lu?"
"Zhu Yunwen?"
Zhu Yunxi faintly spoke out the names of these two people.
He knew very well who would benefit the most if he really died.
And now, it is the twenty-fourth year of Hongwu. Although Zhu Yunxi is no longer what he used to be, there is not much time left for him.
Zhu Yunxi knew very well that preventing Zhu Biao from dying so early, or preventing the emperor's grandson from being named on Zhu Yunwen's head, was his top priority this year.
However, neither of these two things is as difficult as God.
But while Zhu Yunxi was thinking, the call of the palace maid came from outside.
"The prince, the princess and Prince Yan are here."
When he heard that Lu and Zhu Di had arrived, Zhu Yunxi was shocked and looked up at the door.
In an instant, he hurriedly lay down, lying on his side on the bed. His original deep gaze became languid at this time.
The door opens.
Then he saw a woman who was elegantly dressed but still beautiful and gentle. A man wearing a Ming Dynasty prince's uniform and a dark, capable face walked in.
The woman quickly stepped inside, speaking more plausibly and in a nervous tone.
"Yunxi!"
"Yunxi, what happened to you!"
"If you have a problem, how can I explain it to Sister Chang..."
