Outside the palace, officials were panicking because the Jinyiwei wanted to take people.
The military generals also worried that they would be found out about wrongdoings at home because they believed in the Duke's lineage and entered the court.
In Yingtian City at this moment, only the atmosphere in the palace seemed to match this autumn day.
Outside the grand palace, the Imperial Guards and soldiers were guarding with weapons, staring sharply at all movable objects in the field of vision in front of them.
In the palace, there were clanging sounds from time to time.
When they arrived at the palace, they saw Xie Jin, a bachelor of Hanlin Academy, Xia Yuanji, head of the Cleaning Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and Tie Xuan, a minister of the Ministry of Etiquette. The three of them were squatting on the ground anxiously, holding a hammer in their hands, and knocking the emperor from time to time. Grandson.
In front of Zhu Yunxi was a wheelchair.
The existence of wheelchairs is not uncommon. It has existed since ancient times. In the past, Sun Bin and Wu Hou were both unparalleled talents in this wheelchair.
But the wheelchair that Zhu Yunxi was banging was obviously a little different.
The two wheels were wrapped in layers of softened cowhide. Under the bearings between the wheels, one on each side, are layers of steel sheets that are getting shorter and shorter.
If someone later stands here, they can stand out. This is a shock-absorbing piece of equipment.
There was nothing going on in the court today. Zhu Yunxi was rushing to finish the wheelchair for his father, who was recovering day by day. He had promised to give a treasure to him as he had boasted in front of him and his father a few days ago. Come.
The three of Jie Jin stood together with their hands together, their eyes constantly communicating.
Finally, Xia Yuanji, who had the most cheerful personality, was elected by Jie Jin and Tie Xuan out of helplessness.
Xia Yuanji coughed quietly, moved forward, walked behind the emperor's grandson, bent down and whispered: "Emperor's grandson, if Jin Yiwei keeps arresting him like this, no matter how many people we choose, we can't hold Jin Yiwei from arresting him. Human speed..."
When selecting officials in the imperial court, there are rules. They should look at their qualifications, their talents, and their suitability.
But Jinyiwei doesn't care about arresting people. As long as they think there is something wrong with you, even if you are sweating like rain for the population of the Ming Dynasty, you will be sent to Jinyiwei Zhao Prison.
After Xia Yuanji finished speaking, seeing that the emperor's grandson remained silent, he looked back at Jie Jin and Tie Xuan.
The two looked at each other with encouragement.
Xia Yuanji could only sigh lowly, and continued to say bravely: "Emperor Grandson, if we continue to arrest him, no one in the court will be able to do anything..."
"oh?"
Just when Xia Yuanji thought that the emperor's grandson was still busy with the wheelchair, Zhu Yunxi put down the hammer in his hand, looked back at him, and said indifferently.
Xia Yuanji blinked blankly.
Zhu Yunxi turned around and sat in the wheelchair. As he sat down, the two shock-absorbing sheets moved downwards, which effectively offset Zhu Yunxi's weight and made the wheelchair appear softer.
Feeling the comfort of the wheelchair, Zhu Yunxi raised his head and looked at Xia Yuanji.
Seeing the confusion on the other person's face, he couldn't help but chuckle.
He asked back: "Have the Jin Yi Guards arrested anyone today?"
"today?"
Xia Yuanji grunted and turned back to look at Jie Jin and Tie Xuan.
The two of them looked at each other, neither of them had received any news that the Jin Yiwei outside was continuing to arrest people today, then they shook their heads and looked at Xia Yuanji.
Xia Yuanji then whispered: "Today... I didn't arrest anyone..."
Zhu Yunxi hummed and looked sideways in the direction of the side hall.
There were bursts of laughter coming from inside, especially the old man’s hearty and heroic laughter. I don’t know what topic the old man, who had been on strike for several days, was talking about with his father, and could be so happy.
If it weren't for the fact that there are no provisions in the Ming Dynasty Law, Zhu Yunxi would definitely cry out for injustice, saying that the emperor used underage child labor.
After thinking about it, he turned back and looked at Xia Yuanji, who was looking forward to him with a smile.
"Now that Jin Yiwei is no longer arresting people, this matter is almost settled."
Xia Yuanji's heart sank when he heard this.
Before the three of them entered the palace today, they spent a while calculating how many people the Jinyiwei had arrested in the past few days.
That's more than three hundred people.
If he followed the emperor's temper and caused harm to his family and implicated the three clans, tens of thousands of people would be killed.
After all, as Tie Xuan returned to Beijing, the three of them were involved in the selection of officials to fill official vacancies in the Ministry of Rites.
Naturally, it is clear that even if these arrested officials can get out of Jinyiweizhao Prison, they will definitely not be able to return to their posts.
Since this is the result, it means that the emperor has long been murderous.
Otherwise, when the emperor's grandson asked the Ministry of Rites to select officials early in the morning, the emperor should have stepped in to suppress the matter temporarily.
Xia Yuanji said puzzledly: "That's the case..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhu Yunxi had already jumped up from the wheelchair, turned to the back of the wheelchair, and held the armrests with both hands: "This matter has to be judged by the Holy Spirit, and you and I can't have a hand in it."
With a faint hint, Zhu Yunxi pushed the wheelchair towards the side hall.
Before Xia Yuanji could react, Xie Jin and Tie Xuan had already followed.
Tie Xuan was the closest and the first to speak: "However, now that His Majesty and the Crown Prince have recovered but have not shown up, isn't His Highness afraid that the courtiers will find out? When the trouble breaks out, this matter will not be able to end... "
Zhu Yunxi stopped and looked back at Tie Xuan.
"Do you think the news here can be spread? Or, who dares to spread the news about grandpa and father everywhere?"
Tie Xuan was stunned for a moment, then quickly bowed and said, "I know I was wrong."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and didn't take it to heart. In a blink of an eye, he pushed the wheelchair into the side hall.
Xie Jin, Xia Yuanji, and Tie Xuan, who were lagging behind, looked at each other in confusion, looking at the back of the emperor's grandson, helpless for a moment.
Xie Jin even stomped his feet: "What does the emperor's grandson mean?"
Tie Xuan withdrew his attention from the side hall with a faint gaze, and whispered: "What do you mean, Your Majesty..."
Hearing this, Xie Jin and Xia Yuanji couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.
But in the side hall, the joyful voice of the emperor's grandson could already be heard.
"Father, the treasure I want to give you is ready!"
In the side hall, Zhu Yunxi pushed the wheelchair all the way to the prince's bedside.
Just like the previous few days, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was chatting with the prince, was happy at first, thinking that his good grandson had come up with something good again.
But when he turned around, he saw that Zhu Yunxi had just brought out a wheelchair.
He had already asked someone to prepare this thing, and he would give it to the prince to use as soon as he was better.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi took out this thing in advance and presented it to the prince.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but made some miscalculations, and he grunted as he was seized the opportunity: "It's just a wheelchair. We have prepared several for your father!"
This is a strike that has been going on for a long time!
Zhu Yunxi looked at the old man with a smile, but he didn't expect that the old man would become jealous of such things.
He had no choice but to look at his father lying on the bed and explained softly: "This wheelchair made by my son, but it took a lot of effort to get the frame and shock-absorbing steel sheets out. It's definitely better than What grandpa has prepared for you, dad, will be a hundred times more comfortable!"
As he spoke, he glanced weakly at the old man aside.
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became angry and raised his hands to strike: "You brat! How dare you compete with us for the limelight in front of your father!"
Zhu Yunxi hurriedly cooperated, making frightening movements, and ducked backwards.
Zhu Biao couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw his father and son fooling around in front of him, but he coughed a few more times.
His cough immediately stopped Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yunxi who were still fooling around.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yunxi jumped forward, but they squeezed together again.
The two looked at each other.
It's about to make a fuss again.
Zhu Biao hurriedly raised his hands in surrender: "You two! You two! We understand your kindness. There is no need for you two to tease us like this, right? One is the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the other is the current Empress Dowager. Sun. If this word spreads, how can we expect to lose the dignity of the Ming Dynasty royal family?"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yunxi, who were exposed by the prince, could not help but look at each other stupidly.
have to!
The prince is not cooperating!
Zhu Yuanzhang groaned and stepped aside, muttering: "We'll beat you hard when you get better!"
Zhu Yunxi stepped forward and helped his father up with Sun Gouer who was waiting here.
"It's been autumn in Yingtian recently, and it's not too hot outside. My son and grandpa discussed it early in the morning. Today, while there's nothing else going on in the court, our grandfather and grandson will sneak out of the palace and have a nice walk."
With that said, he helped Zhu Biao, who was a little caught off guard, from the bed.
"So, my son has been busy working on this thing in front of me this morning, just to allow you to get out of the palace and take a look."
While Zhu Yunxi was talking, he and Sun Gou'er, who was smiling and nodding, were supporting the prince on the left and right. The two of them moved extremely slowly, and got off the ground holding Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao's face was moved, with warmth in his heart, but he clenched his fists nervously and stepped on the ground with his feet that had not touched the ground for a long time.
His body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his legs on the ground began to visibly sway.
But Zhu Biao gritted his teeth, and soon sweat began to break out on his forehead.
But he never hummed.
Under the watchful eye of Zhu Yuanzhang, who had his hands on his hips and a worried look on his face, Zhu Biao relied on the support of Zhu Yunxi and Sun Gouer to walk to the wheelchair step by step, slowly but with great determination.
Only when Zhu Yunxi was holding the prince in the wheelchair did he let out a sigh of relief.
I saw my father secretly venting his anger there.
Zhu Yunxi smiled and knelt down in front of his father, fastened the seat belt around his waist, raised his head and said with a smile: "Look, Dad, what the envoy of the Shanyuan said is right, you just haven't moved around for a long time, so you will have inconvenience." Sooner or later, activities will be the same as before.”
Patients need encouragement from those around them.
Even if it makes those around you feel tired and tired.
But isn’t that the role of family?
Accompany each other and tide over difficulties together.
Zhu Biao saw his son squatting in front of him, with drops of sweat on his face, still busy tying the belt for himself.
He couldn't help but feel pity in his heart, and subconsciously wrapped his sleeves and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from Zhu Yunxi's face.
Zhu Yunxi was busy working to prevent his father from falling off the wheelchair easily, when he saw his father's sleeves blocking his face.
Before he could dodge, his father's sleeves began to wipe the sweat from his face.
Zhu Yunxi was also moved in his heart, with a smile on his face. He raised his head and let the prince and his father gently wipe away all the sweat on his face.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing aside, looked at this scene, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, turned sideways, and raised his hands to take away a few tears that welled up in his eyes.
"Dad, let's get out of the palace!"
After Zhu Biao retracted his sleeves with ripples in his eyes, Zhu Yunxi bared his teeth and said with a smile.
Zhu Biao nodded heavily and looked at the old man beside him: "Dad, we are leaving the palace."
Zhu Yuanzhang was still leaning sideways and waving his hand this way.
"Get out of the palace! Get out of the palace!"
Sun Gou'er stood aside, watching this scene, and couldn't help turning his back and choking.
God is lucky!
The three generations of the Ming Dynasty are now safe and sound!
God has opened his eyes!
Even if we lose a few years of life, we still want this scene to stay in this palace for a few more years!
