Chapter 20 The Truth

While sleeping with high fever, Zhu Xiongying was given medicine by Hu Changan.

A small stream of water slipped from Zhu Xiongying's pale lips, dripping down his cheeks and onto the brocade quilt underneath him.

But at this time, no one bothered to help Zhu Xiongying wipe it, they just nervously waited for the final result.

In just one cup of tea, Zhu Xiongying's red face returned to its usual color, and his breathing became much calmer.

Compared to the morbid state just now, Zhu Xiongying now seems to have fallen into a peaceful sleep.

Anyone can see that this medicine works.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang shouted three times in a row, his old hands trembling, and he could only tightly grasp the brocade quilt on the bed to control himself from losing his temper on the spot.

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang really thought that his eldest grandson was hopeless, and even the Ministry of Rites was arranging the funeral arrangements. Who knew that there was no end to the man's path, and that he was actually saved by Hu Changan again.

Hu Changan also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

Fortunately, the ancients did not have antibiotics, their resistance was weak, and the results were quick.

If the medicine didn't work, Hu Changan didn't know what to do.

On the other hand, Madam Lu was so angry that she almost broke her silver teeth and dug her nails into her flesh, drawing blood.

Damn it, it's obviously just a little bit away from Yun Wen's turn to be the emperor's grandson.

If I lose this opportunity, I don’t know if the next opportunity will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.

Everyone on the scene had different expressions.

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang was the first to regain his composure and said loudly: "Hu Chang'an, you have done a great job this time. After all, what reward do you want?"

Hu Changan knelt down without being humble or arrogant, and said in a deep voice: "Common people don't need any rewards. Saving the emperor's grandson is what common people should do."

"This is auspicious, the emperor's grandson still needs to take it for another week."

"While taking the medicine, the emperor's grandson needs to drink more water, eat small meals frequently, and eat easily digestible food."

"When the emperor's grandson wakes up, you need to be careful not to let the emperor's grandson scratch his skin, otherwise scars will be left."

"When taking the auspicious medicine, you can also give the emperor Taisun some medicine to dispel wind, clear away heat, diuretic and detoxify, such as honeysuckle and forsythia, etc."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his sleeves and ordered the people around him, "Have you written down everything Hu Changan ordered?"

"Remember it." The palace maid and eunuch standing aside responded hurriedly.

After the emperor's grandson's life crisis was resolved, Zhu Yuanzhang was delighted. Just as he was about to drive back to Yangxin Hall, his heart suddenly moved and he remembered something he had ignored before.

Since Hu Changan saved Zhu Xiongying's life, it shows that Hu Changan and the Hu family did not have the slightest intention to fight against the throne.

If this is the case, then who is lying about the slander incident in the palace?

On the one hand, Zhu Yuanzhang already believed in Hu Changan's innocence.

But emotionally, Zhu Yuanzhang still couldn't believe that Lu, who had always been considerate, and Zhu Yunwen, who was well-behaved and sensible, could actually lie.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced deeply at Mrs. Lu and ordered: "Call Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi, and go to the Yangxin Palace together."

"yes."

When Mrs. Lu heard this, she exclaimed that something was wrong.

However, now there is no time to notify others, so I can only pray silently that Zhu Yunwen will give him some strength and not be scared out of his mind.

Otherwise, you and even your natal family will not be able to escape disaster.

...

In the Yangxin Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang was standing on the steps, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back.

There was a row of people kneeling at the foot of the steps. They were all the parties involved in the imperial garden slander incident, including Hu Changan, Lu Shi, Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi.

In recent days, Prince Zhu Biao went to the outskirts of Nanjing for inspection again. He couldn't make it back for a while, so Zhu Yuanzhang had to do it for him and handle some housework for Zhu Biao.

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Let's talk about it, what happened in the garden of the palace that day?"

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu quickly spoke with a cry, trying to seize the opportunity: "Your Majesty, you are unjust. The two brothers Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi were playing in the garden that day. Unexpectedly, the thief Hu Changan suddenly broke in and not only injured

My son Yunwen didn't say anything, but pushed Yunxi into the pool. Your Majesty, you must be careful, my son is in a terrible situation..."

"Okay." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, impatiently interrupting Lu's crying, and turned to Hu Changan and asked: "Hu Changan, please tell me."

"Back to Your Majesty, the common people were going back to rest after planting potatoes. Unexpectedly, they lost their way and accidentally saw the two highnesses playing. Among them, His Highness Zhu Yunwen pressed His Highness Zhu Yunxi's head into the water. The common people couldn't stand it anymore, so they came to rescue them.

"

"Oh, really." After Zhu Yuanzhang heard the two completely opposite statements, his eyes were neither sad nor happy. He just turned to look at Zhu Yunwen and said: "Yunwen, tell me, what happened that day?"

After all, he was only a five-year-old child who usually didn't receive much attention. When he suddenly came to the magnificent hall and faced Zhu Yuanzhang who was completely different from before, Zhu Yunwen was already frightened.

Originally he felt guilty when he lied, but now facing Zhu Yuanzhang's stern eyes like a falcon, Zhu Yunwen was even more frightened. He opened and closed his lips for a long time, but he didn't say a word.

Seeing Zhu Yunwen's guilty look, Zhu Yuanzhang understood something in his heart. He just sighed deeply and turned to Zhu Yunxi and asked: "Yunxi, please tell me, what happened that day? You are from my old Zhu family."

Cheer up, kid."

After hearing this, Zhu Yunxi suddenly felt a surge of courage in his heart.

Yes, I am the son of the current crown prince Zhu Biao, a serious Tianhuang Guiwei. If I can't even speak out about being bullied, then am I worthy of this bloodline?

And on the way here, Zhu Yunxi also heard that the elder brother who helped him in the garden that day saved his own brother and the only person who was good to him!

Last time, it was because I was too cowardly that my elder brother suffered so much.

This time, I must stand up and repay my elder brother for his life-saving grace!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxi gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and said decisively: "On that day...it was Brother Yunwen who pushed me into the water. The big brother who passed by just...just wanted to

You broke in just to save me!"

What! Lu was immediately shocked and glanced at Zhu Yunxi with sharp eyes.

This little brat always brings trouble to himself at critical moments. It seems that he hasn't taught him enough lessons on weekdays.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was on the stage, was keenly aware of Lu's unkind gaze and shouted: "Ms. Lu, is this how you behave like a legitimate mother?"

Lu immediately trembled, lowered her head and stared at the ground, feeling desolate in her heart.

This time, it's over.

Zhu Yunwen on the side couldn't stand the pressure, so he burst into tears and said sobbingly: "Grandpa, yes... I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention when I was playing around, and I hurt brother Yunxi.

"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunwen and Lu, his heart was also desolate.

I didn't expect that even the people closest to me could be so duplicitous.

"Lu's discipline was inadequate and she was grounded for three months."

"Let Zhu Yunxi be raised by Queen Ma herself."

"yes."
