Zhu Xiongying smiled and said:

"You just brag."

"Really Zhang practiced the orthodox Xuanmen Taoism, and the way of longevity is unmatched. I think if you continue to fight, you will be consumed to death..."

Zhong Lao said unconvinced:

"Even if I'm not as good as Zhang Zhenren, what is his grandson surnamed Hong? Can he be compared with me?"

"In today's world, only Daoist Zhang can overwhelm me a little bit."

"Now the juniors are comparing him to Zhang Zhenren's disciples and grandchildren... Wouldn't you be angry if it was you?"

Zhu Xiongying said with relief:

"You don't have to be so angry, it's all written on your face, you're embarrassing the Lan family."

"Old man, my temperament is so straight-forward," Mr. Zhong couldn't help but said, "This Lanlin has excellent bones. If I teach this old man, it is estimated that within a year, he will be able to completely defeat his master."

"Letting someone surnamed Hong teach it is a waste of money. I think...the so-called famous Wudang family is like this."

"By the way, speaking of Wudang..."

"Didn't your grandfather just issue the 'ban on arms'?"

"Tell me, what should this famous family like Wudang Shaolin do?"

"You can't go against the court, can you?"

Zhu Xiongying thought for a while and said:

"Although Wudang Shaolin is a sect of Jianghu, it is mainly a place of religion."

"One of them is Buddhism and the other is Taoism. As long as they devote themselves to cultivating Taoism and don't get involved in worldly affairs, they should not be banned by the court."

Hearing Zhu Xiongying's explanation, Mr. Zhong also nodded:

"It should be according to what you said... Your grandfather will not really refuse to give these people a way to live."

Zhu Xiongying nodded and said:

"Even if my grandfather can't think of this, my grandmother will persuade him not to kill them all..."

"Mr. Zhong, go and do something for me tomorrow."

Elder Zhong said curiously:

"what's up?"

Zhu Xiongying looked at the sky and remembered something that had always worried him.

"Go and help me find a good doctor."

Chapter 189 Empress Ma is seriously ill

More than a month later.

September.

In the past few days, everyone in the palace has become anxious.

The moody emperor seems to have become more irritable these days.

And the prince, who was usually gentle and elegant, became worried and even delayed state affairs.

This father and son are like this, all because...

Empress Ma fell ill.

Queen's Bedroom.

Old Zhu stood in front of Empress Ma's sick bed, holding her hand and talking patiently with her.

Empress Ma opened her eyes and said angrily:

"Chongba, don't worry, I'm just tired, just rest for a few days and I'll be fine."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded repeatedly and said:

"Yeah, just rest for a few days."

"We've made up our minds. We won't be staying in this palace anymore when you're well. The palace is so boring. Let's take you out for a tour of the mountains and rivers. We'll run all over our great country."

After listening to this, Queen Ma said with a smile on her face:

"Okay, I'll go out with you when I'm better."

The two chatted for a while, and Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Empress Ma was tired, so he said:

"Get some rest first, and we'll come see you tomorrow."

"If you want anything, just tell others, don't hold it in your heart, it's not good for your health."

Queen Ma nodded slightly.

After leaving Empress Ma's bedroom, Zhu Yuanzhang's face became extremely ugly.

He's no fool, Empress Ma's physical condition is obviously going from bad to worse.

When I woke up yesterday, I still had the energy to talk a lot, but today I was tired after not saying a few words.

This is not a good sign.

As soon as he walked out of the room, he said coldly:

"Go and call the imperial physician, let's ask carefully, why are they treating the queen?"

The eunuch on the side said in fear:

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Physician only came a few days ago, and the empress will not let them come after that..."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and asked:

"Why?"

"If you're sick, you should see a doctor. She...why the queen doesn't want to be diagnosed and treated by the imperial doctor?"

The eunuch was already breaking out in a cold sweat at this time, and he replied bravely:

"The empress said...the empress said that life and death are personal fates. She is not willing to let the imperial doctor diagnose and treat her disease because she thinks that too much medical treatment can't cure her disease... If taking medicine can't help, then your majesty will definitely do it because of it." This matter falls on the imperial physicians..."

"The Empress doesn't want Your Majesty to condemn the imperial physicians for her, so that's the only way to do it."

Hearing the eunuch's words, Zhu Yuanzhang was at a loss for words.

Indeed, as Empress Ma said, if she couldn't cure her illness too well, then she would definitely cut them all down, leaving no one behind.

Now Empress Ma would rather bear it by herself for the sake of these imperial physicians, it is really...

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said:

"Go and call the doctor."

"Tell the queen, even if the imperial doctors can't cure her, we won't blame them."

"Let her feel at ease to be healed by the imperial physician."

The eunuch quickly bowed and said:

"As ordered."

At this time.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw in the distance, Zhu Yunwen walked into the palace gate led by the palace people.

See Zhu Yuanzhang from a distance.

Zhu Yunqi looked happy, and hurried to Zhu Yuanzhang, cupped his hands and said:

"Grandson Zhu Yunwen, please greet Grandpa Huang."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him, and said in a rather cold tone:

"Well, it's considered filial piety to know to come to see grandma."

In fact, Lao Zhu didn't want to see him.

Ever since he found out that he and his concubine were plotting to assassinate Zhu Xiongying, Lao Zhu hated this grandson very much.

If it wasn't for Prince Zhu Biao's sake, Zhu Yuanzhang would not have been able to take him back to the palace.

Zhu Yunqi said to Zhu Yuanzhang very respectfully:

"Grandmother is sick, so grandson should be filial. These days, grandson sacrifices and prays every day, hoping that grandma will get better."

"Okay, your filial piety is not bad, your grandmother has already rested, so don't go in and disturb her, go back."

Done.

Zhu Yuanzhang left without looking back, with his hands behind his back.

Zhu Yunwen stood there in a daze.

He didn't expect that he came here specially, but Zhu Yuanzhang didn't even let him see the queen.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was far away, he turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's back with a look of hatred.

"Old man, just wait."

"When I get the power... I will let you taste what I am today, no, I want you to taste a hundred times and a thousand times!"

……

outside the capital.

A farmer carrying a shoulder pole is preparing to go to the city to go to the market.

Just outside the city gate, he was stopped by an old man.

"Hey, you old man, don't you look at the road when you walk?" The farmer looked at the old man who was always blocking his way, and said impatiently, "If you keep blocking me like this, I will hit you It's gone!"

The old man was wearing a bamboo hat, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly.

But facing such scolding from the peasant, he was not angry.

Instead, he turned around and said with a smile:

"I think your two baskets of rice are pretty good. How much can you sell them for in the city?"

The farmer sighed and said:

"How much can you sell? The market is not good now...if you are lucky, it will only be sixty or seventy."

"I didn't want to sell it at first, but our family is still waiting for the money to be used, so there is no way."

The old man smiled kindly and said:

"That's a little...how about this, I'll give you a chance to make money, do you want it?"

The farmer froze for a moment, and said vigilantly:

"There is a chance to make money. If you don't make it yourself, let me make it? Is there such a good thing?"

The old man chuckled, took out a bag of money from his pocket and stuffed it into the farmer's pocket:

"Naturally."

The peasant put down his shoulder pole, took out his purse, and weighed it.

Good guy, there is a lot of money in this at least.

This has to be the money he can earn from how many dealers he planted!

The farmer looked at the old man with straight eyes.

"I... I won't do anything that breaks the law!"

"Don't worry, I will never break the law. If you do it well, you might be rewarded." The old man smiled, and took out a small bottle and a sachet. "The elixir in this bottle is very precious. You can offer it to me." Entering the palace, it is said that it is for noble people to treat diseases."

The farmer took the two things in a daze, and when he came to his senses, he asked:

"The palace?"

"But I'm just an ordinary citizen, who can let me into the palace..."

The old man pointed at the sachet with a smile and said:
