Views:

Zhu Yunxuan was ill, and after a hangover, he developed a high fever and was bedridden.

Zhu Yunjing brought Min'er over to see him, and regretted seeing his sickly appearance, never thought that just a drink would make him sick.

Lying on the bed, Zhu Yunxuan shook her head wearily: "It has nothing to do with drinking, I asked someone to open the window in the middle of the night, and I caught a cold."

Gao An blamed himself even more, and pleaded guilty to Zhu Yunjing repeatedly, blaming himself for not taking good care of His Majesty. Zhu Yunjing looked at Zhu Yunxuan hesitant to speak, and hated that iron could not be made into steel.

For a beheaded man, is it worth it

Zhu Yunxuan looked at Yu'er who was lying on the bed and looked at her timidly, raised her hand to caress his face, and reminded Zhu Yunjing: "Brother, take the child back, don't get angry with the child. "

"He himself said he wanted to see you. You talk to him for a while, and I'll take him away in a while."

Zhu Yunjing went to the outside room to inquire about Zhu Yunxuan's condition with Doctor Fang who was accompanying her, and Min'er moved closer, stuck it to Zhu Yunxuan's side, and asked him in a low voice, "Daddy, are you sick?"

"Daddy is fine," Zhu Yunxuan forced a smile on his face, and comforted him, "Be good, and I will take you to play after Daddy recovers."

The child nodded obediently: "Then Daddy needs to get better soon."

"good."

Carefully placing the two candies next to Zhu Yunxuan's pillow, Min'er stood on tiptoe, pressed them to kiss Zhu Yunxuan's forehead lightly.

Zhu Yunxuan smiled and closed her eyes: "Good boy, you can eat it by yourself, Daddy won't eat this candy."

"It's delicious. Daddy needs to drink medicine when he's sick. It's so bitter. It's not bitter to eat candy." The child persuaded him solemnly, Zhu Yunxuan couldn't bear to refrain from his kindness, and smiled and took both candies down.

He has been ill with this disease for more than half a month, and it has been summer in a blink of an eye. Fortunately, during this period of time, there has been no incident in the DPRK and China. There are several cabinet ministers staying in Beijing, and the usual government affairs are handled as much as possible. Send it to Fujian by urgent report, and finally there is no delay.

Physician Fang mentioned to Zhu Yunjing in private that a large part of Zhu Yunxuan's illness was caused by heart disease. The thoughts that had been suppressed for three years all burst out when he suddenly saw the person with the root knot, and he was entangled and unable to let go. Depression became a heart disease.

If he wanted to get well completely, he had to think about it himself.

During this period, Ri Min'er would come to accompany Zhu Yunxuan for an hour every day, and the relationship between father and son became deeper and deeper. Zhu Yunxuan has made a decision, and will set off to return to Beijing when he recovers from his illness. As for how to formally speak to Yu'er about this matter, after discussing with Zhu Yunjing, he still wants to find a suitable opportunity before departure, and the two of them will be together talk to him.

After Zhu Yunxuan recovers from his illness, the next day will be the Buddha's birthday on the eighth day of April. In previous years, the emperors of Dayan would go to the royal temple to burn incense and pay homage to the Buddha. To the west of Quanzhou, there is a Buddhist temple on the mountain. Although it is not as large as Yuanji Temple in Beijing, it is also a famous temple in Fujian and Guangdong. The accompanying officials of the Ministry of Rites arranged early in the morning. This year, the emperor personally worshiped the Buddha on the Buddha’s birthday. The location is set here.

In the early morning of that day, Zhu Yunxuan changed into his mien gown and went to the temple in Xishan in the crowd. Several children wanted to watch the fun, so Zhu Yunjing took them to watch the ceremony.

The emperor personally went to the temple to burn incense and worship the Buddha on the birthday of the Buddha. This is a ritual established by Dayan since the founding of the country. It has a complete set of procedures, which are boring and cumbersome. After an hour, she couldn't stand anymore, and pestered Zhu Yunjing to go outside to play.

Zhu Yunjing was afraid that they would not be good if they kept making noise here, so she had to lead them back out first, and went to the temple fair outside.

Because of the presence of the emperor, the temple was closed, but the temple fair outside was not forbidden to come, and because of the emperor's presence, this year's temple fair was more lively than previous years. There were so many people that the whole city was mobilized.

Zhu Yunjing was holding the two little ones with each hand, and had to keep an eye on Yuan Bao not to drag Zhu Yunqiong to run around. Even though there were a large number of guards and servants following behind him, it was really hard, crowded, and he had several times Almost couldn't hold the two children.

Seeing that Min'er was almost tripped again, he had no choice but to pick her up with one hand, regretting that he should bring four children to such a place to join in the fun.

After walking for a while, Ming'er took Zhu Yunjing's hand, and said eagerly that he wanted to eat sugar man, and Min'er nodded in agreement: "I want to eat too."

Zhu Yunjing already wanted to go home: "Do you have to eat it?"

The two little dolls nodded in unison: "I want to eat."

In desperation, Zhu Yunjing had a headache and placed them at the corner of an alley with fewer people, and said: "Stand still, I'll ask someone to buy sugar for you."

He was about to tell his servants to go buy it, but Yuan Bao had already yelled "I'll go, I'll go", squeezed into the crowd and disappeared in an instant.

Zhu Yunjing hurriedly asked someone to follow, and then ordered the rest of the people to protect the three children and retreat, surrounding them in a corner to protect them.

Yuan Bao had been queuing in front of the sugar seller's stall for a long time, but just as it was his turn, he was knocked away by a teenage boy who came in sideways. When she got up, Zhu Yunjing's head was getting bigger, and she turned around and told the children to stand where they were and not to run around, and to go through the crowd to solve the matter with the eldest son.

Zhu Yunqiong held the hands of the two little dolls tightly, and stared nervously at the scene of people coming and going in front of him. A large number of guards stood in front of them, but he felt vaguely uneasy, and the palms of his hands were sweating.

Suddenly there was a faint sound of yelling and cursing from the front, a beggar who looked only about ten years old jumped towards this side, followed by a woman who was cursing and shouting to catch a thief, the beggar was flexible Drilling in and out, jumping all the way, knocking down countless pedestrians. Seeing him running closer and closer, the swords in the hands of all the guards were half drawn, and they were vigilant.

At the same time, dozens of black dogs sprang out from nowhere and came straight towards them. The two little dolls who were looking around curiously were terrified, and Zhu Yunqiong was even more panicked, pulling the other one subconsciously back until it was impossible to retreat, and the guards in front of him were busy dealing with the dogs, in a panic The beggar rushing over knocked down two of the guards, and disappeared into the crowd in an instant, while the woman who came after her took the opportunity to rush into the crowd of guards, and picked up the beggar with one hand, Rolling over on the spot, with the protection of those dogs, he successfully fended off the guards who rushed up, and rushed into the crowd.

Relying on her small size, Zhu Yunqiong dodged the dogs and chased after her, and grabbed the hand of the wailing Miner, trying to snatch it back, but was kicked away by the woman, fell to the ground and could not crawl for a long time. stand up.

Zhu Yunjing, who watched this scene from a distance, was angry and anxious, but was blocked by the crowd and couldn't squeeze through. The pedestrians who were scared and hit by the dog fell back all the way, blocking all the roads, and when the guards finally broke through the crowd and chased after them, the woman who had taken Min'er away had disappeared without a trace.

The Buddha worship ceremony ended in a hurry. Zhu Yunxuan heard the news and his legs were so weak that he could hardly stand. He Huailing immediately led troops to blockade the entire surrounding of the temple. However, there were tens of thousands of people at the scene at the time, so it was not easy to check them one by one.

Zhu Yunjing's eyes were red with anxiety, Yuan Bao was also stolen by gangsters when he was a child, and now Min'er has encountered the same thing in his hands, which made him blame himself.

"A Xuan..."

"Brother, stop talking, it has nothing to do with you, they are here for my status as the emperor." Zhu Yunxuan's clenched hands were still trembling slightly, but he gradually calmed down and interrupted Zhu Yunjing. The more he dared not panic at this time, he forced himself to calm down, quickly ordered, and ordered people to close the city gates, guard all the passages out of the city and several docks, and search from house to house.

After explaining the matter, Zhu Yunxuan calmed down a little, and asked, "How is Yunqiong?"

Zhu Yunjing shook her head: "Being kicked to the waist, it will take a while to recover."

Zhu Yunxuan lightly closed her eyes: "After this time, I have to reward him with something, so it's hard for him."

"We'll talk about that later," Zhu Yunjing reminded him with a solemn expression, "What matters now is Yu'er, the people who took him away...could it be the remnants of the previous dynasty?"

Zhu Yunxuan lowered his gaze, and said in a hoarse voice: "No matter who it is, they are all here for me. In their hands, Min'er should not be in danger for the time being. It just depends on what they want, but..."

But his child is still so young and soft-tempered, can he bear it, wait until they go to rescue him

"...I'm afraid they have too much appetite and want everything."

"No matter what they want," Zhu Yunxuan clenched his fists and said firmly, "If it takes my life, I have to save him."

Until the afternoon, all the people who were stranded at the temple fair were checked one by one, but there was still no clue, not to mention the woman who took the child away, the beggar and the boy who collided with Yuanbao were all in confusion It was obvious that these people were all in the same group, and they came prepared, trying to find an opportunity to create chaos, so that they could take the opportunity to snatch the child.

When the sun was setting, the emperor's royal driver returned to the General Military Mansion. Not long after entering the gate, the commander of the Imperial Guard rushed to report and handed over a letter, saying that just now, an arrow had nailed the letter to the General Military Mansion. On the gate of the Military Mansion, there are only four words on the envelope, "From Your Majesty".

Zhu Yunxuan tore open the envelope, and there was only a note inside, with his familiar handwriting written on it: "At midnight tonight, at the east pier of the city, Your Majesty, please come alone, see you soon."

The inscription drew a smiling rabbit, matched with the flamboyant characters, as if bragging about something with him, Zhu Yunxuan's pupils shrank suddenly, and in a fit of anger, he punched hard on the table.
