My uncle is Zhu Di

Chapter 8 Entering the Palace
Zhu Gaochi came out of the imperial study, thought about what Zhu Di had just said, shook his head and smiled bitterly, then picked up his skirt and walked quickly outside!

When he arrived at the imperial prison, Zhu Gaochi was taken to Xu Qin's room by the Embroidered Uniform Guards, only to find that Xu Qin was sleeping soundly!
Zhu Gaochi sat down beside the bed and rested for a while. He was exhausted just now. Although he came here in a carriage after leaving the palace, he still had to walk to the imperial prison. The distance was not short, only four or five hundred steps.

"Hey, cousin, cousin, get up!" Zhu Gaochi pushed Xu Qin!
Xu Qin heard the noise, turned his head and saw that it was the prince, so he sat up and said with a smile: "Oh, cousin, you have been sent to the imperial prison too!"

"Go away, go away, you have nothing nice to say. Here, do you want me to read the edict or you can read it yourself?" Zhu Gaochi handed the imperial edict to Xu Qin!
Xu Qin glanced at Zhu Gaochi, then looked at the bright yellow imperial edict, and asked tentatively: "Should I kneel down to receive it?"

"You know that, but why don't you kneel down?" Zhu Gaochi said with a smile.

Xu Qin glared at Zhu Gaochi, then got off the bed, knelt down, and raised his hands. Zhu Gaochi put the imperial edict in his hands!
Zhu Gaochi and Xu Qin were very familiar with each other. In fact, Xu Qin liked this cousin very much. He was kind, really very kind, always smiling, and looked like a natural Maitreya Buddha.
Moreover, my father had been imprisoned for five years, and only Zhu Gaochi would come to the palace four or five times a year, and each time he would sit with my father for half a day. My father always said that Zhu Di had a good prince.

As for Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, they had no chance. If they had the chance, they would kill their father with their own hands.

Xu Qin unfolded the imperial edict and read its contents, and found that it asked him to go and treat his aunt!

"Well, okay. But, cousin, let me make it clear first. I don't know if it can be cured. My medicine is a bit special. That is to say, a skin test must be done before treatment. Only if there is no problem, then treatment can be given. If there is a problem, then this medicine is not a medicine for curing diseases, but a medicine for killing people! Also, mine requires an injection in the buttocks!" Xu Qin stood up and said to Zhu Gaochi.

"Okay, anything is fine as long as my mother can be cured. Let's go!" Zhu Gaochi didn't care at all about the treatment, as long as she could be cured. After saying that, he stood up.

"Hey, you've gained weight again?" Xu Qin saw Zhu Gaochi stand up and found that his belly was round and bulging, so he went over and patted his belly.

"Go away, go away. He grows fat even when I drink water. What can I do? Let's go!" Zhu Gaochi slapped Xu Qin's hand away and said helplessly.

Xu Qin thought about the reasons for Zhu Gaochi's early death in later generations. Some said that the King of Han bribed the imperial physician and gave him a chronic drug. Zhu Gaochi never knew about it and slowly died of poisoning. Some people said that Zhu Zhanji personally poisoned Zhu Gaochi to death. Some people said that Zhu Gaochi probably had diabetes! Another one is high blood pressure! However, history also records that Zhu Gaochi indulged in excessive sexual desire and could not live without women, which may also be the reason for his early death!

"Cousin, what's wrong with you is that you took the wrong medicine? When you were young, you were in poor health and fat, but not this fat! I heard that you partied every night?" Xu Qin approached Zhu Gaochi and asked with a smile.

"Go away, kid, what do you know? Don't look at your cousin's fat body, this is definitely the case!" Zhu Gaochi also liked to joke with Xu Qin, and he gave a thumbs up as he spoke!

"Hey, you're awesome!" Xu Qin also smiled and gave Zhu Gaochi a thumbs up, then asked, "Cousin, do you think this is normal? You're like this, and you still want this?"

"What do you mean?" Zhu Gaochi immediately stared at Xu Qin and asked back. Zhu Gaochi was a very smart man, and Xu Qin's words made him alert!

"I guess you took the wrong medicine!" Xu Qin patted Zhu Gaochi's belly, shook his head and sighed.

"This is unlikely, right?" Zhu Gaochi looked at Xu Qin suspiciously and asked.

"How would I know? Go check it yourself! It would be best if there is nothing!" Xu Qin said with a smile.

Zhu Gaochi was also concerned when he heard this. He did feel that it was a bit abnormal. When he was 20 years old, he was not so strong. However, he still smiled and pushed Xu Qin forward, saying, "Okay, don't worry about me. Go and cure my mother, your aunt, right? I feel so bad when I see my mother like this!"

Xu Qin turned around and shouted to Zhu Gaochi: "I have to go back and get something first. I can't treat him empty-handed. I don't have the ability to do that!"

"Okay, the carriage is outside!" Zhu Gaochi said hurriedly with a smile!

After Xu Qin and Zhu Gaochi were released from the imperial prison, they took a carriage straight to the mansion. After arriving at the mansion, Xu Qin said he was going to get something.

Zhu Gaochi grabbed Xu Qin's hand and said, "If you hurry up, I won't go in. Come visit my uncle next time. My mother is feeling very uncomfortable!"

"Okay!" Xu Qin nodded!
After returning to the mansion, Xu Huizu hurried out when he learned that Xu Qin had returned. After Xu Qin took the medicine box and prepared to follow the prince to the palace, he saw his father coming and quickly went to greet him.

"Who picked you up?" Xu Huizu asked immediately when he saw Xu Qin. Xu Qin quickly replied, "Prince!"

"Well, go ahead and try your best to cure your aunt. But remember, don't accept any reward from His Majesty. Just take what your aunt gives you. Otherwise, she will be angry!" Xu Huizu quickly instructed Xu Qin.

Xu Qin nodded!

"Go quickly!" Xu Huizu waved at Xu Qin, and Xu Qin walked quickly outside with the medicine box on his back!

After going out, he jumped directly into the carriage and followed the prince straight to the palace!

This was the first time Xu Qin came to the palace after the Jingnan Campaign. Of course, he had seen his aunt many times. Before his aunt fell ill, she would basically come back twice a year!
But up to now, Xu Qin can be said to have no impression of Zhu Di at all, because he has never seen Zhu Di since he can remember!
I can't remember it when I was a child. When I grew up a little, the Jingnan Campaign began. Now it is the winter of the fourth year of Yongle, and I have just turned sixteen this year. Before I was eight years old, Zhu Di spent most of his time in Beijing!
After Zhu Di ascended the throne, although he came to the palace once, at that time, he was being watched by the Jinyiwei and could only stay in his own courtyard and could not come out!
After that, every time Zhu Di left the palace, the Jinyiwei would come to his house in advance and forbid his family from going out, as if his family members would assassinate him!
Xu Qin thought, this time he might be able to see what the historical Emperor Yongle looked like?

Soon, Xu Qin followed the prince to the Queen's bedroom in Kunning Palace!
As soon as Xu Qin entered, he smelled the pungent smell of Chinese medicine, and then he saw his grandmother, Mrs. Xie, and another one was his cousin-in-law who was also the Crown Princess. Then, he saw his aunt, who looked like a withered woman, leaning on the bed!
When Xu Qin saw Empress Xu like this, his nose felt sore. In his memory, his aunt actually loved him the most. She would give him two sets of clothes each for spring, summer, autumn and winter every year, and would send a lot of food to his house from time to time!

Every time Empress Xu returned home, the first thing she would do was to look for me, hold my hand, and let me sit next to her!

Xu Qin walked over quickly, knelt down, kowtowed to Empress Xu and said with a sob: "Aunt, I am ignorant, so I came to visit you!"

"Shakyabao, my Baoer, come on, boss, help Baoer up!" Empress Xu was also moved when she saw Xu Qin kneeling down, he was her own nephew!

Zhu Gaochi quickly helped Xu Qin up. Empress Xu soon discovered that Xu Qin was in tears, so she smiled and said, "It's been almost three years since we last met. My Bao'er has grown up. Come quickly, let me see him! Ahem~"

After hearing this, Xu Qin walked over quickly and stood beside the bed. Empress Xu took Xu Qin's hand and asked him to sit down. Then she used a handkerchief to help Xu Qin wipe his tears: "Don't cry, aunt misses you. Aunt also knows that you can't enter the palace. Aunt is also so sick. I asked you to come to the palace so that you don't worry!"

"Well, aunt, please sit down. I will treat you. However, my medicine is a bit special. It needs to be injected into the buttocks with a needle. Moreover, a test needs to be done before the injection to see if you can adapt to this medicine. If you can, then there will be no big problem. If you can't, I will find another way!" Xu Qin said to Empress Xu with a forced smile. Seeing Empress Xu like this, he couldn't be happy at all.

"Okay, I'll listen to you and our doctor!" Empress Xu said with a smile!

Xu Qin touched his head uncomfortably, he was not a doctor!
Then Xu Qin stood up and bowed to Crown Princess Zhang: "Greetings, Crown Princess!"

Zhang smiled and nodded, "No need to be polite. I'm sorry to have to trouble you today!"

"It's my duty!" Xu Qin bowed again!
"Baoer, you must cure your aunt, do you hear me?" Grandmother Xie said to Xu Qin beside her!

"Yeah!" Xu Qin nodded!
Then he opened his medicine box, took out the syringe, and then took out the bottles and jars and began to prepare for the injection!

After a while, Xu Qin was ready. He came to Empress Xu with a syringe and said, "Aunt, I also treated my father in the same way. It's quite different from the doctors nowadays!"

Empress Xu smiled and said, "I'll listen to you. The doctors nowadays can't cure my aunt's illness!"

"Hey, stretch out your hand first. I need to do a test and then wait for two quarters of an hour to confirm whether it works!" Xu Qin said to Queen Xu!

Empress Xu had infinite trust in her nephew. She knew that anyone could harm him, but her nephew would never harm her.

At this moment, in the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Di was standing by the window of the study. Liu Yongcheng walked in quickly from outside and bowed to Zhu Di: "It's already being treated, but this treatment method is unheard of! It uses a jade tube, and there is a thin needle in front. The thin needle is probably vacuum and can absorb water!"

"Well! Keep investigating!" Zhu Di nodded. On his desk, there was a piece of intelligence, which was the news about the syringe that Xu Qin had asked the craftsmen from the Ministry of Works to make!
Zhu Di was not worried that Xu Qin would assassinate Empress Xu. On the contrary, he was praying in his heart that Xu Qin could cure Empress Xu!
