"Xiao Chen, the prince said just now that you cured his leg disease?" As the officials marveled and envied Ma Yunshan, the head of the Ministry of Etiquette, for being promoted to the commander of the Imperial Guard, Ming Chengzu changed the topic to Xiao Chen.
"Yes." Xiao Chen replied calmly, "After the prince arrived in Dongchang, he often talked about his regret that he could not ride a horse and carry a sword with the emperor to conquer the world. His subordinates advised the prince at that time that no one is perfect. Since he is not in good health,
Then use your own wisdom and, as the prince, when the emperor is personally on duty to supervise the country, let the court operate normally, let the officials have something to rely on, and let the people have food and clothing without worries. This is the most powerful support for the emperor to conquer the world.
.You don’t have to follow the emperor to fight together to be a good prince."
"However, the prince said that his father had been fighting all his life, and he saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. He hoped that he could lead the Ming Dynasty's army to fight in the north and south, and quell the chaos. He hoped that the emperor would stay in the capital and strategize
, I will be an invincible spear in the hands of the Emperor, and fulfill every wish of the Emperor." Xiao Chen wanted to continue, but was suddenly interrupted by Ming Chengzu's words.
"Chi'er, do you really think so?" Looking at Zhu Gaochi, Ming Chengzu's eyes were full of heartache.
Although Ming Chengzu had a lot of dissatisfaction and disgust with Zhu Gaochi, in the final analysis, he was his eldest son. Although he had leg problems since he was a child, his honest and honest character and his generous and kind attitude were deeply admired by him.
Taizu liked him and asked himself to make him the Crown Prince of Yan at that time.
During the Battle of Jingnan, he became the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. However, Ming Chengzu knew full well what position he would ultimately have in the eyes of the people in the world.
I can look down on Jianwen, but I must not show any disrespect to Taizu.
When he became the emperor, the Crown Prince of Yan appointed by Taizu could only naturally become the crown prince.
Over the years, there have been many days when he personally went on military expeditions. The prince was ordered to supervise the country, and his achievements were remarkable.
While he was charging outside, the prince maintained the peace in the rear, allowing him to concentrate on the war and win many times.
During this period, the two relied on each other and gradually smoothed away the dislike in their hearts day by day.
I originally thought that the prince must be content with the status quo, do his job well, and assist him in governing the Ming Dynasty. However, he never thought that he has been feeling sorry for him and wishes he could calm the world on his behalf.
This silly boy of mine is introverted and not good at expressing emotions. The love he has for himself in his heart is actually deeper than any other prince.
Ming Chengzu was extremely happy and filled with indescribable satisfaction.
"My father has been a soldier all his life, and the child has great admiration in his heart. People say that in fighting tigers, brothers are brothers, and father and son go into battle. The father is away fighting the enemy, and the child can only provide all the logistical support for the father in the palace. The regret in his heart is endless.
To express it in words. In recent years, seeing the white hair on the temples of his father and the many military campaigns, the child felt extremely guilty. He always thought that if one day, the child was fighting outside and the father was in the capital, what would happen?
What a perfect thing." Zhu Gaochi looked at Ming Chengzu with sincerity on his face.
"Okay, okay." Ming Chengzu said three good words in a row, and then his face was filled with distress, "It's just that your leg disease was brought out from your mother's womb, and you suffered a lot from forced treatment, right?
"
"As long as we can solve the problems for our father, the child can endure any hardship." Zhu Gaochi said.
Ming Chengzu spread his hands and placed them flat on the table. He slowly closed his eyes and nodded vigorously.
It would be great if my other two sons could understand the principles and general principles like this.
After a while, Ming Chengzu opened his eyes again and looked at Xiao Chen: "How did you cure the prince's leg disease?"
All the officials also pricked up their ears and looked at Xiao Chen quietly.
They also wanted to know what method Xiao Chen used to cure the prince's leg disease that he had had since childhood. Not to mention the prince's current well-proportioned figure, just the windy momentum when he walked, even if Hua Tuo was still alive, he would probably not be able to cure it.
There is no way to present such a masterpiece.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's leg disease is not actually a disease. It's just that the two leg bones are born with different lengths. As a result, walking is a little harder than ordinary people. Coupled with obesity, it is normal to walk unsteadily. Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince,
Under the strong request, the leg bone that had grown out of him was removed, and now His Royal Highness is the prince who moves swiftly." Xiao Chen raised his head and tried to make the treatment as simple as possible.
"Remove the bones? Doesn't that mean you have to cut the meat first?" Ming Chengzu's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it.
All the officials in the court took a deep breath and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over their bodies.
The pain of cutting open the leg muscles of a living person is enough to kill someone. They also have to remove a section of the bone inside, then bandage it tightly to allow it to grow.
His Royal Highness, who usually looks gentle and powerless, can actually endure such pain?
What a strong will!
"Whether it is cutting off the flesh or removing the bones, any one of them is enough to hurt a normal person to death. But the prince's endurance is not comparable to ordinary people. In addition, he feels guilty for not being able to accompany the emperor to conquer the world and solve the emperor's problems.
I survived." Xiao Chen said lightly.
Shaking his head, Ming Chengzu slowly stood up.
"People often say that the most severe pain is the pain that goes deep into the bone marrow. That kind of severe pain that cannot be touched and has no solution, many people are hurt to death. Chi'er removed a section of the bones, this kind of bone marrow
What does the pain mean to him?"
"You made a mistake. My father imprisoned you in Dongchang Prison just to teach you a lesson. But I never thought that you would be so cruel and let yourself suffer such a sin. No one can make mistakes without being a sage.
, you have not only reformed your past, but you are also thinking about your father and want to fight for the world on his behalf. With such an heir to the unification, why should I feel uneasy?"
After saying this, Ming Chengzu glanced at Baiguan's face again.
All the officials understood that the emperor's mind has been made up, and the prince's re-entry into the East Palace is just around the corner. If we don't go with the flow now, when will we wait?
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has returned with a new look, which is a blessing to our Ming Dynasty. I think it is better to take advantage of today's morning court to let the Crown Prince re-enter the East Palace!" An official stepped out of the queue and said seriously.
"Our Ming Empire has strong national power and is respected by the world. The position of the Crown Prince in the East Palace is always vacant. How can it remain vacant? Now that the crown prince has returned, he should return to the East Palace." Another official stepped out of the queue to report.
Ming Chengzu nodded and looked at the others, as if he was waiting for everyone's opinions.
Li An, the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, who was kneeling on the ground, also hurriedly raised his head: "The sin of losing the prince is unforgivable. Now that the prince has returned, I dare not ask the emperor to forgive the minister. I only hope that the prince will move into the East Palace as soon as possible and assume his responsibilities.
It is my responsibility to solve problems for the court and the emperor."
"Are you thinking that the prince will move into the East Palace and then ask me for mercy and give you a lighter sentence?" Looking at Li An, Ming Chengzu laughed.
Listening to the emperor's words, all the officials couldn't help but cover their mouths one by one.
It's too obvious that Li An wants to beg the emperor to forgive him.
As the small laughter spread in the court, Li An couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly said: "Wei Chen didn't mean that, Wei Chen just felt that the East Palace has been vacant for so long, and it should have its owner.
.”
"Get up." Ming Chengzu waved towards Li An, "Before, you also tasted the punishment of prison in the Inspectorate. Now that the prince has returned safely, I am in a good mood and will no longer punish you. The affairs of the Ministry of Punishments will be dealt with
Do a good job, solve the problems for the court, and don't live up to my pardon."
Hearing this, Li An hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your forgiveness."
After the three kowtows, he slowly stood up and returned to the ranks of officials from the Ministry of Justice.
All officials raised their fists and congratulated Li An one after another.
While the court hall was filled with joy, Ming Chengzu looked past the officials and landed on Zhu Gaosui at the back.
"Suier, do you have any objections to your eldest brother taking over the East Palace?"
