Everything happened so suddenly. From the opening of the time-travel door, to Zhu Houzhao falling into the water, to Zhao Changge taking Zhu Houzhao away, such a thing took less than two seconds from beginning to end, and none of the beauties on the boat did. After reacting, Zhao Changge had already disappeared with Zhu Houzhao.
Several beauties glanced at each other, wondering if the light door they had just seen was an illusion, and then belatedly remembered that His Majesty was missing.
"Come here! Your Majesty has fallen into the water!" A beauty shouted hurriedly.
"No, no, your Majesty was kidnapped!" Another beauty said hurriedly.
The guards who were far away from Zhu Houzhao's boat had just seen something strange. At this time, they heard the shouting and hurriedly rowed the boat over, but Zhu Houzhao's figure was no longer found, and many guards jumped into the water. Went to search, but still found nothing.
The emperor suddenly fell into the water (missed), and the Zhengde Dynasty suddenly became lively.
Zhu Houzhao was still confused when he was brought back to the future by Zhao Changge. He stood in the living room and looked at a circle of strangers. Oh, no, there seemed to be a familiar person among these strangers.
"Father?" Zhu Houzhao blinked, then patted his wet head hard and said: "I was frightened and died now? Why did I see my father so soon? Is this heaven or heaven? Underworld?”
At this time, Zhao Changge threw a towel directly on Zhu Houzhao's head: "This is neither heaven nor hell. You are all wet. Go to the bathroom and change a set of clothes before we talk."
"What is the bathroom?" Zhu Houzhao was really confused now.
Although Zhu Youtang had just arrived in the future, he had already mastered the basic knowledge of the future. Seeing Zhu Houzhao's wet appearance, he immediately felt distressed and took Zhu Houzhao to change his clothes.
Zhu Houzhao, who was wearing a T-shirt and big pants, felt uncomfortable all over. Although the clothes of this generation were quite comfortable to wear, he had never worn them before, so he always felt a little awkward.
After some exchanges, Zhu Houzhao confirmed that the people in front of him were indeed his father and ancestors, and that he had arrived in the next generation in the blink of an eye. This made Zhu Houzhao, who was already a young man, suddenly excited.
"It's exciting, it's really exciting!" Zhu Houzhao burst out laughing.
"Okay, don't be so excited. Mr. Zhao, how old was Zhengde when you went to Zhengde?" Zhu Yuanzhang, as the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, coughed slightly, and Zhu Houzhao immediately sat down obediently.
Zhao Changge smiled bitterly: "It's a coincidence. It happened to be the fifteenth year of Zhengde when I went there, and I happened to meet Zhu Houzhao on the cruise ship."
"Pleasure boat? Doesn't that mean that it was the day when Zhu Houzhao fell into the water!" Zhu Youtang patted his chest with some fear. If it were later, his son would have fallen into the water and contracted the wind and cold. It was also after Zhu Houzhao fell into the water this time that His health was deteriorating.
Zhu Houzhao twitched the corner of his mouth: "You have the nerve to say it. If you hadn't suddenly appeared and startled me, how could I have fallen into the water?"
"Shut up! Why are you talking to the Imperial Preceptor? The Imperial Preceptor is trying to save you, why don't you apologize!" Zhu Youtang immediately scolded him. He knew very well that the Imperial Preceptor was among you. How high the emperor's status is in his heart, Zhu Houzhao, a heartless brat, doesn't care. But if he offends the Imperial Master, not to mention whether he can save Zhu Houzhao, I'm afraid Zhu Houzhao himself will also be killed by Taizu Taizong. If you hold grudges, there will be no good fruit to eat.
In the impression that his father, who had always doted on him, was suddenly so strict, Zhu Houzhao pursed his lips, stood up, bowed to Zhao Changge and apologized. This etiquette was considered to be in place.
"You brat, don't feel reluctant. You have to know that if the Imperial Master had not appeared by chance, you would have accidentally fallen into the water, and your health would have deteriorated since then. You would have died in the 16th year of Zhengde. ." Zhu Yuanzhang explained kindly.
Zhu Houzhao had just sat down, and suddenly he stood up in fright: "What! I died in the 16th year of Zhengde, so, that means I am going to die soon! No, how can this be possible? I There are still many things that have not been done. I have not yet taken over the power. I have not made any great achievements. I have no heirs yet. If I die suddenly, then... wouldn't my lineage be cut off? It’s incense!”
"In fact, it is true. You were childless, but after your death, your cousin Zhu Houcong took the throne." Zhao Changge said truthfully.
Zhu Houzhao did not have much interaction with his cousin, so he was not very close emotionally. When he heard that his throne fell into the hands of Zhu Houcong, Zhu Houzhao was full of reluctance.
"Destiny is not mine! I have worked hard for so long, but in the end it's all in vain." Zhu Houzhao said with some reluctance.
Zhu Yuanzhang sneered: "What are you trying to do? You just want to suppress the cabinet with your clumsy methods. The more you resist, the more dissatisfied the civil servants are with you. Now let's think about it carefully. You have no heirs and you died suddenly." I don’t think it’s an accident.”
Zhu Houzhao's face suddenly darkened: "Taizu, what do you mean by this? Is it possible that I have no heirs and that someone is behind my fall into the water?"
"I don't think your body is in need. I heard that you are dissolute and immoral, but you have been exercising since you were a child, and your physique doesn't seem to be weak. Unless you have some hidden disease in your body, this makes Zhao I will take you to the hospital to check and it will be clear. As for you falling into the water, we think it is difficult to control. But if you died suddenly due to the wind and cold after falling into the water, there is a problem. The wind and cold are not a serious illness. The ability of the Ether Hospital Why did you die?"
Zhu Houzhao's eyes showed murderous intent: "Is it possible that after I fell into the water, these imperial doctors tampered with my medicine?"
"We need to investigate carefully. But we feel that you have been fighting with the civil servants for so long, and the cabinet is not willing to give up your status and rights easily. I am afraid that your existence has already become a thorn in the eyes of many people."
Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Youtang both took a breath. They didn't expect that these civil servants would be so courageous. Although everyone is fighting for power, your dirty tricks are a bit too much.
"Don't think this is difficult to accept. You must know that in this world, it is not uncommon for fathers to kill their sons, sons to kill their fathers, brothers to kill their brothers, and brothers to kill their brothers for power, not to mention the emperor and his ministers."
Zhu Houzhao felt like he was struck by lightning. He always felt that his fight with the civil servants was within the rules, but he did not expect that these civil servants would be so unscrupulous after jumping over the wall. Of course, there is no evidence for anything now, but the seeds of doubt have been planted in Zhu Houzhao's heart.
