In late May, imperial envoy Li Qing led a group of imperial doctors to Peiping.
It has to be said that Xiao Zhu had great trust in Li Qing and directly revealed his plan.
——Let King Yan die of illness!
To put it bluntly, the imperial doctor was asked to prescribe medicine, but not strong medicine. Xiao Xiaozhu still had to erect a memorial arch.
Nowadays, Zhu Di's military power has been reduced, and he only really controls the Three Guards. The chief envoy of Peking has also been changed, and he will never regain his original glory.
Li Qing didn't know how the fourth child made a comeback in history, but it must have been particularly difficult.
If Li Shimin's Xuanwumen Changes had a difficulty of three stars, then Zhu Dijing's difficulty must be a sky full of stars.
No wonder he was ambitious, but still had no choice but to rebel.
Li Qing took the imperial doctor to the palace to announce the decree. Only Xu Miaoyun led his three sons to receive the decree, and Zhu Di was not seen.
But acting requires a complete performance, so Li Qing still insisted on bringing the imperial doctor to see Zhu Di.
…
"Ouch~ It's cold~ It's so cold...!"
It was midsummer now, and Li Qing was too hot even in his imperial uniform, but Zhu Di was wrapped in a quilt, his face was sweating profusely, but his whole body was shaking.
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
"I...I'm afraid I won't live long."
The imperial doctor immediately became excited and immediately wanted to take Zhu Di's pulse. How could Zhu Di dare to let the imperial doctor take a look?
"The king is seriously ill, so I won't bother you too much as a medical officer."
Zhu Di knew that if he asked for a pulse diagnosis, he would either be found out, or the doctor would make a mistake and poison him directly.
The eldest nephew's modest skills are clear to him.
"If something happens to the prince's rich body, how will I explain it to the emperor?"
Zhu Di refused to let him see it, and the imperial doctor refused to see it.
Li Qing couldn't stop the imperial doctor. After all, he had to return to Beijing and continue to prepare for the overall situation.
He rebelled with Zhu Di and could not help much, but he was in the capital and could help Zhu Di a lot.
At the same time, Zhu Di must also be made to understand that he is on the same side as him, and he cannot say it directly. It would be strange if Zhu Di would believe it directly, so he must show it.
So damn difficult...!
Li Qing couldn't think of a good solution for a while, so he could only place his hope on female students.
So, he glanced at the ghostly Xu Miaoyun with deep eyes.
Xu Miaoyun was really shrewd. Although he didn't understand Li Qing's intentions, he immediately figured out a way to break the siege.
"Your Highness has been taking medicine. He just finished taking the medicine before the imperial envoy came. It would be better for the medical officer to wait for the medicine to wear off before making diagnosis and treatment."
After a pause, he turned around and said: "Sambo, the imperial doctor has been working hard all the way to ask the prince to prepare some specialties from our Peking. I want local specialties."
Xu Miaoyun was anxious, so she could only place her hopes on the big boy.
Fortunately, the good boy did not disappoint her.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Sanbao came over dragging a large plate of gold ingots.
When they saw the golden ingot, the eyes of the imperial doctors all shone, but in front of the imperial envoy, they dared not accept it and refused.
Li Qing only glanced at the tray, then quickly looked away and said to himself: "It turns out that Peking's specialty is peanuts. What did I think it was?"
Imperial doctors also belong to the official system, and they are all experienced. When they heard this, they immediately understood the intentions of the imperial envoy, and exclaimed in their hearts: Marquis Yongqing is so interesting, he deserves to be named a marquis!
They are short-handed and soft-spoken, and after reaping the benefits, they will no longer be in trouble.
Of course, the main reason is that the emperor did not let them poison Zhu Di all at once, because that would be too obvious.
Just let them prescribe medicine that is contrary to the condition of the disease, or prescribe slow-acting poison.
In short, Zhu Di must die, but there must be a process, and he cannot die immediately.
While several imperial doctors were putting ingots into their sleeves, Li Qing took the opportunity to press Zhu Di's wrist.
Zhu Di wanted to resist, but he couldn't resist at all. He could only look at Li Qing anxiously.
"Your Highness's illness..." Li Qing frowned and said seriously: "If it is not treated in time, it may affect your mind!"
After a pause, he added: "Your Highness, you are going crazy!"
Zhu Di:(⊙_⊙)?
Xu Miaoyun on the side was also stunned, but seeing that Li Qing would rather lie than reveal the truth, he immediately agreed: "Yes, His Highness has been talking crazy things these past two days."
Zhu Di was confused: I...am I going crazy?
"Yeah, look, look." Xu Miaoyun pointed at the confused Zhu Di, "I'm going to get sick soon."
Without waiting for Li Qing to speak, she said directly, "Li Qin, fellow medical officers, His Highness will kill people when he gets mad, so you'd better avoid him first."
Zhu Di couldn't keep up with him, but he knew that his wife would not harm him, so he immediately cooperated, threw off the quilt, and went to draw the knife.
Li Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The performance was finally over. It was so damn tiring.
It was about treason, and Zhu Di would not believe it no matter how nice it was. It had to be done, and it had to be done in a subtle way, so that it would appear more real.
However, Li Qing is not sure whether Zhu Di can see that Zhu Di has great talents and strategies in war, but when it comes to being cunning...
After being in contact with him for so long, Li Qing felt that the fourth child was not very smart.
Li Qing could only place his hope in the little chubby mother, who was indeed smart.
The group of people hurriedly left the room, and under the leadership of Sanbao, they went to the guest room of the side courtyard to stay temporarily. As an imperial envoy, Li Qing naturally had better conditions, one room for each person, and two rooms for the other imperial doctors.
…
"Okay, everyone has gone away, stop acting." Xu Miaoyun closed the door with a serious face.
Zhu Di returned to normal, put down the knife in his hand, frowned and said: "Miaoyun, I feel like Li Qing is helping me."
"He is indeed helping you." Xu Miaoyun's delicate eyebrows also frowned, and she wondered, "But why is he helping you?"
Zhu Di thought for a while, "Is it because of Chi'er?"
"This is impossible!" Xu Miaoyun shook her head categorically, "In the face of power and wealth, even if Chi'er is his biological son, he... ahem, let me use an analogy."
Zhu Di said with a dark face, "I don't like your analogy very much."
"Okay, how long has it been and you're still a poor talker?" Xu Miaoyun frowned and said, "Why don't you test him?"
"It's better!" Zhu Di shook his head and said cautiously: "We can't rule out that he said this on purpose to drug me."
Xu Miaoyun held her forehead and said, "Can't you be smarter? If he wants to drug him, he will say that the disease is bad, but he will say that you are crazy?"
"Ah? This..." Zhu Di asked doubtfully, "There is no difference. Isn't madness also a disease?"
Xu Miaoyun said speechlessly, "But lunatics can act unreasonably, just make trouble unreasonably;
If the imperial doctor insists on treating you, they can just beat you up, and they won't be able to prove that you are not crazy anyway."
"Hi~!" Zhu Di suddenly realized, "Yes, so Li Qing is really helping me?"
"It should be correct." Xu Miaoyun nodded, "But I still don't understand why he helped..."
Before she could finish her words, the large wardrobe next to her was suddenly kicked open.
“Clang——!”
When the cabinet door opened wide, an old monk over fifty years old fell to the ground, gasping for air.
"I can't do it anymore, I'm suffocating myself to death." Dao Yan gasped, "Tigress...cough cough, Princess, please don't be impulsive. The situation is clear now, and people are coming to kill you. If the prince doesn't resist, he will be killed."
...you have to follow in the footsteps of other kings;
The knife is about to be put to your neck, so don’t hesitate!"
Dao Yan was really convinced. Before this, he would have never thought that the biggest stumbling block to starting a business was not Jianwen, but Xu Miaoyun.
What made him even more angry was that he tried to persuade Zhu Di every time. As a result, the girl blew the wind on her pillow at night, and the next day, Zhu Di came and said: Master, don't be anxious, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run.
When pushed too hard, Zhu Di would also say: I listen to my wife.
If he couldn't beat her, Daoyan would have to use his great mercy palm to slap this bitch to death.
This time, Xu Miaoyun did not get angry, but asked: "Old monk, why do you want to help His Highness?
What are you planning?"
"I...I don't want anything!"
"I don't believe it."
I'll fuck you, Amitabha... The Taoist energy caused one Buddha to appear in the world, and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, breaking the defense: "Only women and villains are difficult to raise. Those who are far away will be resentful, and those who are close will be disrespectful. The ancients sincerely
Don’t bully me!
Your Highness, you just dote on her too much. The Qianqiu King’s hegemony cannot be lost in the hands of a woman!"
As the saying goes: I would rather tear down ten temples than break up one marriage; but Daoyan couldn't care less, and after decades of hard work, he had to let his fourth son divorce this bitch.
"Three cardinal principles and five constant principles: the king is the cardinal guide for the ministers, the father is the cardinal guide for the son, and the husband is the cardinal guide for the wife; if the husband is weak, why should he be a husband?" Daoyan Baba advised, "Gentle country is the grave of heroes; since ancient times, beauties are the guide for disasters, and there are thousands of beauties in the harem...
…”
Dao Yan also took the risk, and his central idea was very clear: Fourth, today it’s me without her, or she without me; between me and Xu Miaoyun, you choose one!
Zhu Di's face suddenly twitched and he cursed: "Shut up, how could I be influenced by a bitch? It's me who doesn't want to, not her..."
"Your Highness..."
"Shut up," Zhu Di said angrily, "I want to be quiet!"
Women have three obediences and four virtues. Even if Xu Miaoyun is usually arrogant, she will be afraid when Zhu Di is angry.
Zhu Di's facial muscles bulged, his heart felt like it was fried, and the two villains were fighting fiercely in his mind.
A quarter of an hour later, the villain with the word "anti" written on his head won the battle.
Zhu Di cursed in a low voice: "Damn it, Jianwen kid has gone too far to bully others. He has rebelled against his mother!"
"Your Highness, you are a saint!" Dao Yan was about to cry. Oh my god, the fourth child really relied on his luck this time!
"Your Highness, do you want to listen to me?" Xu Miaoyun asked.
Dao Yan was stunned and wanted to strangle Xu Miaoyun to death, "Your Highness, please don't..."
"Master, please be patient." Zhu Di waved his hand, "Miaoyun, please tell me."
"You can't openly rebel, otherwise the teacher will be unknown." Xu Miaoyun said, "The emperor's ancestors said: If there are no honest ministers in the court, and there are traitors in the court, the vassal king will raise his troops to punish him, so as to clear the emperor's side!"
This was indeed decided by Zhu Yuanzhang, but there were restrictions on the side of the Qing monarch. The emperor had to summon the vassal king first before the vassal king could raise troops. After successfully eradicating the traitorous officials, the vassal king had to return immediately.
"Oh my, the princess is right!" Dao Yan immediately changed his face, "The princess is really a hero among women, and she is not inferior to men..."
"Okay." Xu Miaoyun was a little annoyed with him, but he also knew that the old monk was really capable, so he said, "Master, let's say something useful!"
Dao Yan nodded, "Let's raise troops in the name of Qingjun and Jingguo.
His Highness often said that King Ning's three Duoyan guards had extraordinary fighting power. Although King Ning has been stripped of his military power and is confined to the palace, the three guards are still there. Your Highness can go and get the three Duoyan guards back in the name of rescuing King Ning;
In this way, he not only strengthened himself, but also won the heart of the Ming vassal king!
If Jianwen cuts you off so hard, they must be resentful, but they just don't dare to fight back. If His Highness raises an army to save Prince Ning, they will never give you a chance, and will even secretly help you."
"The Three Guards of Duoyan...!" Zhu Di's eyes were sharp.
He missed Prince Ning's Duoyan three guards more than once or twice.
Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The biggest question now is whether Li Qing is with us;
If he is sent by Jianwen, then as soon as I lead the army out, the imperial court will probably send troops to Peiping, and my hometown will be raided and beaten."
Xu Miaoyun thought for a while and said, "I will test him tonight."
