Chapter 18: This old guy is good to deal with. He really dares to take action when something happens!
Although Wang De was full of doubts, he did not dare to ask, nor could he ask.
Because if the noble person doesn't explain, they, as servants, have no right to ask.
"Dongmei, tell the people at the Salary Bureau to raise Wang De's monthly salary by one level starting this month."
"Then, from my monthly allowance, I will give five taels of silver to Wang De every month."
When Wang De heard this, he kowtowed in gratitude.
His current monthly salary is only one tael of silver. If he is promoted to the next level, it will be two taels. Add on the extra five taels as a reward to himself, and his monthly income will be seven taels!
In other words, from now on, the money he earns every month will be more than in the previous six months!
But he also had a big doubt in his mind, that is, why did the Crown Princess suddenly reward him so generously?
"I thank the Crown Princess for the generous reward, but I cannot accept the reward without merit. I don't know how to repay the Crown Princess for this great kindness..."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lu smiled slightly, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"You are a smart person. I believe you will know what to do."
"I am tired, you guys go down first."
When Mrs. Lu said this, she looked up at Dongmei, and Dongmei immediately nodded to show that she understood.
"Wang De, let's not disturb the Crown Princess's rest. Come with me."
“Hey hey!”
The two of them left the Crown Princess's bedroom, and before Dongmei could say anything, Wang De spoke first.
"Sister Dongmei, what did the Crown Princess mean by that just now?"
Dongmei smiled slightly when she heard this.
"The Crown Princess said it very clearly. His Majesty asked His Highness Yunhuan to study for His Highness Yunhuan's own good. But His Highness Yunhuan has just recovered from a serious illness and is still too weak. He should not overwork himself..."
"oh……"
Wang De's eyes lit up when he heard this and he nodded in sudden understanding.
"I understand. Sister Xie Dongmei will help me solve this puzzle!"
Dongmei looked at Wang De and asked doubtfully.
"Do you really understand?"
"If you ruin the Crown Princess's plan, you'd better be careful of your life!"
Wang De chuckled.
“I really understand!”
"Don't the Crown Princess want His Highness Yunxun to eat well, drink well, rest well, and live happily every day?"
When Dongmei heard Wang De say this, she immediately smiled in approval.
"The Crown Princess was right about you. You are really a smart guy. Haha..."
"Go back and do your job well. As long as you work hard for the Crown Princess, you will get the benefits!"
"Yes, yes, I will do my best to serve the Crown Princess!"
Although Wang De acted like a lapdog in front of Dongmei, when he separated from Dongmei, a sneer immediately appeared on Wang De's face.
snort!
Isn't it just the same way that the wealthy families deal with their illegitimate sons? It's as if everyone has seen it before!
In ancient times, the wives of wealthy noble families were often very strict with their legitimate sons, but very lax with their illegitimate sons. They even encouraged them to eat, drink and have fun, so as to wear down their ambition and make them lose the ability to compete with the legitimate sons for the throne.
Before being confiscated and sent to the palace, Wang De was also born in a family of officials, so he knew all about Lu's ways.
Although Wang De accepted the reward from the Crown Princess, he always felt guilty towards Zhu Yunhuan.
After all, Yun Hun had just given me a name and treated me as his confidant.
As long as I follow His Highness for a few years, and when His Highness is crowned king, I can become the chief eunuch of the royal palace!
By then, I will be second only to the king and above everyone else. I can do whatever I want. Why would I care about these few taels of silver?
However, Wang De's heroism only lasted for a moment. When he thought of his brothers and sisters-in-law outside the palace who were poorly clothed and hungry, he succumbed to the temptation of money.
Your Highness!
It's not that I, Wang De, am disloyal, it's just that the Crown Princess gave too much, wuwuwu...
On the other side, Zhu Yunhuan was pestering the imperial physician to ask what kind of poison he had been poisoned by.
"Doctor Ge, what is erysipelas?"
"Your Highness, elixir poison is the poison of the elixir."
"In ancient times, the rich and powerful would ask alchemists to make elixirs in order to pray for immortality."
"This elixir is extremely poisonous. Many dignitaries and even emperors in ancient times have died from taking an overdose of elixirs."
"The poison your Highness has been poisoned with is similar to elixirs. May I ask if your Highness has ever taken elixirs for a long time?"
"Medicine?"
Zhu Yunhuan shook his head in confusion. How could he know this?
After all, he had just come here less than a day ago, and he was able to sensitively detect that there was something wrong with his body. It was already considered smart of him.
"To be honest, I don't remember a lot of things from the past. I don't even know if I've ever taken any pills or anything like that..."
Upon hearing this, Hao Wenjie immediately urged anxiously.
"President Ge, please don't ask him what he ate yet. Instead, tell us how serious his condition is and how to treat it!"
When Ge Yunwen heard this , he stopped worrying about this issue and started to analyze the condition seriously.
"It's not serious, and it's not difficult to cure, but..."
When Hao Wenjie heard that Zhu Yunhuan’s poisoning was not serious and could be cured, the heavy stone in his heart fell to the ground.
As long as the patient can be cured, that's enough. The hospital won't be responsible.
As for finding out what was eaten and who poisoned him, that is the job of the Jinyiwei and it is not the turn of the Imperial Hospital to worry about it.
Hao Wenjie doesn't care, but Zhu Yunhuan does.
As the saying goes, good health is the capital for enjoyment. He finally became the grandson of the Ming emperor. How could he be worthy of God's gift if he didn't enjoy wealth and glory for a hundred or eighty years?
"Just what?"
When Ge Yuanpan heard Zhu Yunhuan's question, he frowned and answered.
"It's just that your condition is a little strange. Logically speaking, you are seriously poisoned, so your body would never be so healthy, and your complexion would not be so good."
"It's as if something in your body is forcibly suppressing the toxins, creating a strange balance in your body and making the symptoms of poisoning less obvious..."
When Zhu Yunhuan heard this, he immediately had the answer in his mind.
What Ge Yuanpan said more about should be his soul that came from hundreds of years later.
The superposition of the two souls produced certain reactions, which restored his body to a certain level of health.
But he could only keep these words in his heart and would never tell anyone about them in his entire life.
"President Ge, there's no need to worry about this. Just tell me how to cure this poison!"
"Your Highness, this poison is easy to cure. As long as Your Highness stays away from poisons, exercises regularly, drinks plenty of water, and eats more carrots, water celery, etc."
“Eat more vegetables and exercise more?”
"Your Highness is truly gifted and has made a very accurate summary. Indeed, as long as you eat more vegetables and exercise more, the toxins in your body will naturally be eliminated!"
" Uh-huh!"
"Thank you, Doctor Ge. If I can recover, I will report to the Emperor and ask him to reward you generously!"
Upon hearing this, Ge Yuanpan could not help but secretly complain in his heart, this grandson really underestimates His Majesty, does he need to report such an important matter?
Didn’t you see Erhu just ran out with his ears ringing? I guess it won’t be long before His Majesty will lead the Jinyiwei to kill us!
Things turned out just as Ge Yuanpan had expected. Before he could finish preparing the medicine for Zhu Yunhuan, Zhu Yuanzhang led a group of Jinyiwei and rushed into the Imperial Hospital with murderous intent.
"Pass on my order to seal off the Imperial Hospital and not allow anyone to enter or leave!"
"Where is our grandson? Is he okay?"
Because it takes a lot of time for the imperial physician to prepare and boil medicine, Zhu Yunhuan was planning to use this time to take a nap.
But just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from the yard. Then he saw an old man with white hair and beard, a hunched body, rushing in with a gleaming sword in his hand, his eyes red, and an anxious face.
When he saw that he was safe, the old man dropped his sword with a clang, then walked forward and grabbed his hand.
"Grandson, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
"You naughty kid, hurry up and say something, do you really want to drive me crazy?"
Zhu Yunhuan looked at Old Zhu with an anxious look on his face and felt his nose sore, and a long-lost feeling of emotion arose in his heart.
This old guy is really good at dealing with people. He really dares to take action when something happens!
He decided to forgive the old man and not pursue the matter of him beating him last night.
At this moment, an absurd thought even popped up in his mind. He thought it was not bad to have such an imperial grandfather, even if he was beaten by him, it seemed like a kind of happiness.
"Grandpa Emperor, you hurt me..."
"ah?"
Old Zhu loosened his hand and saw that his eldest grandson's arm was bruised from his scratches. He immediately scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry, I was too anxious and didn't control my strength well..."
"By the way, how do you feel now? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"Don't worry, no matter how much it costs, Grandpa Huang will cure you and won't let you suffer from any disease!"
"and……"
When Old Zhu said this, the kind look on his face immediately turned into viciousness and ferocity.
"Grandpa Emperor promises you that even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we will find the person who poisoned you!"
"We will cut him into pieces and execute his entire family!"
