Fortunately, in this dark prison cell, they could only barely eat water every day, and their bodies were no longer what they used to be. Although the fights were still frequent, the time each time was getting shorter and shorter.
After having a cup of tea, the two of them stopped and lay on the ground breathing heavily.
"Grandma, let me have a full meal," the old eunuch Wynn said angrily, covering his rumbling stomach, "I've beaten your egg yolks out a long time ago."
"It's embarrassing to say that," Doctor Wu said with a smile: "You are the senior brother named Zhao and his benefactor, but he treats you so inappropriately, how can you get away with it?"
"Hey, there's no need to open the pot." Wynn snorted and cursed: "Don't mention that unkind and unjust thing, even if you want to avoid suspicion, you can still kill me if you give me preferential treatment in food!"
"Senior brother is teaching you a lesson." The old eunuch Zhao Ying's voice rang out. The two people turned around with bruises and swollen faces. They saw the cell door opened and Zhao Ying appeared in the cell. Behind him were two young eunuchs. One eunuch was carrying a
A food box, another holding a wine jar, and two wine cups.
"So, junior brother, I'm here to apologize to you." Zhao Ying gestured to the young eunuch with his eyes and said, "Put it on."
The little eunuch then put out the piles of meat from the food box, and the aroma immediately filled their nostrils. Wynn sniffed hard: "Roast chicken, the roast chicken from Lao Zhang's family in the Qinhuai River! There are also salted ducks and lions."
Head, phoenix tail shrimp..." Tears came down as he said: "I never thought that I would be able to eat authentic hometown dishes again in this life!"
"Senior brother, go ahead and eat." Zhao Ying looked at Wynn with complex eyes and said calmly: "Don't be afraid to hold on."
"I can't hold on, I'm so hungry that I can eat a cow!" Wynn said, without using chopsticks, he just grabbed it with his hands.
"Doctor Wu, please eat something too." Zhao Ying looked at Doctor Wu. Doctor Wu hadn't spoken yet, but Wynn said flatly: "No! This is for me, and you can't give it to this traitor!" He said and looked at the little boy.
The eunuch held the wine in his hand and said, "What are you doing standing there in a daze? You haven't even poured it for your father-in-law. You don't have any sharp eyesight."
The little eunuch looked at Zhao Ying, who sighed and said, "Senior brother, you'd better eat before you drink."
"We are all eating and drinking at the same time. How can there be any reason to drink after eating?" Wynn asked strangely.
"You should eat it." Zhao Ying did not explain, but threatened: "Otherwise, I will let Doctor Wu eat it."
"Don't mention it, I'll eat it." Wynn immediately stopped asking and started eating in a hurry. He really wasn't bragging, a box full of meat was wiped out by him in the blink of an eye.
"It's so comfortable!" Wynn hugged his belly comfortably, leaned against the wall, looked at Zhao Ying and said, "You have to come more frequently from now on. If you don't come, you have to bring more meat."
"Hey," Zhao Ying sighed and waved his hand, and the two eunuchs poured the wine from the wine jar into two wine glasses. Zhao Ying said quietly: "Senior brother, I won't be able to eat meat in the future, but don't worry
, Junior Brother will give you more paper to burn."
"Ah..." Wynn was stunned for a moment, looked at the two wine glasses, and trembled: "Is this poisonous wine?!"
"Yes!" Zhao Ying nodded, and sighed: "The decree has been issued, and I can only fight for the whole corpse for you two."
"Haha..." Wynn looked at Doctor Wu and laughed: "Traitors will not end well."
"I had no intention of living." Doctor Wu said with a faint smile: "An old eunuch like you won't understand the feeling of being a father." As he said this, he picked up the wine glass and put it to his lips.
"Wait a minute!" Wynn stopped him and said, "I didn't figure it out just now. It turns out that what he sent was decapitation rice. The King of Hell will not accept the starving ghosts, so you have to eat something before going on the road."
"Don't you want me to die?" Wu Wei looked at him and asked strangely.
"Where did you come from with so much nonsense!" Wynn glared at him and said to Zhao Ying: "He helped you catch our emperor, you won't even give him a meal without his head, right?"
"Okay..." Zhao Ying was able to have Dongchang thanks to Dr. Wu, so he nodded and said: "Give Dr. Wu another share."
"Yes." The little eunuch quickly went out and brought back several plates of dishes after a cup of tea. He saw that they were the ones left after preparing the dishes for Wynn.
"Eat." Zhao Ying said and stopped talking.
Doctor Wu picked up his chopsticks and started to eat slowly. After only taking a few bites of the same dish, he put down his chopsticks and said, "It's ready."
"Don't waste it!" When Wynn saw that there were still some dishes left on the plate, he leaned over, took the chopsticks and ate without worrying about getting Dr. Wu's saliva on him...
Zhao Ying patiently waited for Wynn to finish the food and wine, then said in a deep voice: "Don't delay any longer, die early and be reincarnated early."
"Okay, let's get on the road." Wynn said, picking up the wine glass, clinking it with Doctor Wu, and said with a smile, "I wish you would be reincarnated as a dog in your next life."
"You will definitely be a pig in your next life." Doctor Wu glared at him angrily, and then, under Zhao Ying's gaze, he raised his neck and drank the poisonous wine.
"Pigs are not bad, they have food to eat without having to work, and they still have the national surname." Wynn nodded with a smile, "Thank you for your good advice." He also drank the glass of poisonous wine.
While he was still alive after drinking, Hua En said to Zhao Ying, "Junior brother, I want to ask you something."
"Senior brother, tell me." Zhao Ying nodded.
"Bury me next to the master." Wynn sighed: "I miss him..."
"Okay." Zhao Ying nodded.
The poison of the wine was very terrible. After drinking it for a while, the two of them turned purple, curled up on the ground and started twitching. After two twitches, they foamed at the mouth and died...
The two young eunuchs touched their necks and reported to Zhao Ying: "I'm exhausted."
Zhao Ying personally checked again and made sure that both of them had no heartbeat or breath, then stood up, left the cell and said: "Drag them to the incarnation field and burn them."
"Didn't you say that you want to be buried next to Master?" a young eunuch asked casually.
"Presumptuous!" He was answered by a sneaky kick from Zhao Ying. The little eunuch was kicked out, hit the wall, spit out a mouthful of blood, and died on the spot.
"Send him to the incarnation field together." Zhao Ying looked at the other eunuchs with a gloomy face, and sneered: "Whoever wants to talk too much in the future, just go and keep him company."
All the eunuchs were so frightened that they shook their heads.
"Hmph!" Zhao Ying ignored these eunuchs and the three dead bodies on the ground. The East Factory was about to open, and he still had many things to do.
As soon as Zhao Ying left, the eunuchs dragged out the bodies of Doctor Wu, Wynn, and the unlucky eunuch, and pulled them on a cart, preparing to send them to the cremation field outside the city for cremation...
Unexpectedly, as soon as the cart left the gate of the Royal Horse Prison, it was stopped by the Jinyiwei people.
Seeing the menacing Jin Yiwei, the eunuchs were frightened and stammered: "What are you going to do?"
"Collect the body!" Erhei snorted coldly, with a sharp light in his one eye. "Doctor Wu is my fellow countryman, and he also saved the life of my family. Let's collect his body."
"This..." The eunuchs said to themselves that for the sake of two dead men, it seemed that there was no need to compete with the Jin Yiwei. They asked people to go in and ask the old eunuch Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying also considered that once the East Factory opened in the future, he would have to cooperate with Jin Yiwei on many things, so he simply made a favor and asked them to take the two corpses back.
As soon as the corpse was pulled back to the Jinyiwei Yamen, Wu Wei rushed towards it and cried bitterly until he fainted and was pulled away by Erhei and others. However, it was not easy to hold a funeral after all, so Wang Xian led everyone to kowtow to the corpse several times, and stayed there all night
After the funeral, they were transported to the outside of the city for burial...
Wang Xianer, Hei Shuaihui and three others also wore sackcloth and mourning, and together with Wu Wei, they carried the coffin to the cemetery.
On the cemetery, brothers had already dug two large pits. As soon as Wang Xian and others arrived, they slowly lowered the two coffins into the pits.
Seeing his father lying in the coffin and being buried in shovels of loess, Wu Wei was heartbroken and cried on the grave again...
Wang Xian and others also felt sad and burst into tears...
In the distance, Zhao Ying, who had been secretly monitoring them, turned around and left...
Thousands of miles away, on the vast East China Sea, there was a small boat floating, and standing on the boat were Chang Sen's uncle and nephew. Even on the bumpy deck, they still stood upright like javelins, guarding the man in the cabin... The curtain was lifted
Open, the man walked out of the cabin, and it turned out to be Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen who should be in Zhu Di's palace!
At this moment, I saw tears on Zhu Yunwen's face, and he complained to Chang Sen sadly: "Why are you doing this? It's not worth it to exchange three lives for one of mine!"
"This is their choice." Chang Sen said calmly: "Whether it's Ying Wen or Dr. Huai'en Wu, they are all doing their duty as ministers." After sighing, he stayed alone beside Jianwen to accompany him.
Going to Southeast Asia, isn't it also fulfilling the duty of a minister?
"How can this make me feel so embarrassed?" Zhu Yunwen said with tears streaming down his face.
"The emperor must live well and make their sacrifices meaningful," Chang Sen said solemnly: "This is the best reward for them!"
"Hey..." Zhu Yunwen sighed sadly. In his ten lifetimes, he still could not understand the feelings between his loyal ministers...
In fact, all this was the work of Dr. Wu and his colleagues. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer courtiers around Emperor Jianwen, there was no hope of a comeback. Wu Wei, Changsen, and the others finally turned their thoughts to how to help the emperor get rid of the endless pursuit.
Let the emperor live the peaceful life he wants.
But Zhu Di was extremely determined. As long as he didn't see Emperor Jianwen for a day, he would never stop chasing him. So there was only one way - let Monk Yingwen capture Zhu Yunwen for Zhu Di.
Monk Ying Wen was Zhu Yunwen's stand-in. Over the years, Zhu Yunwen was able to escape from danger several times while being hunted down by the court. It was because of this stand-in that he was almost identical to him that the court was confused about what was true and what was false.
The whole plan started long before 'Emperor Jianwen' was caught by Ji Gang. This spring, Chang Sen secretly went to the Mausoleum of Prince Yiwen in Purple Mountain. Without the surveillance eunuchs and guards noticing at all, Chang Sen and
Crown Princess Yiwen took the lead. Although the Crown Princess was blind, she still recognized Chang Sen. After hearing their plan, the Crown Princess agreed very much... She was a lonely old lady, how could she have any ambitions?
He just hoped that Jianwen could live a happy life for a few days, so he agreed to act in a play with Chang Sen and the others.
