Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1439

"This humble servant greets Your Majesty the Emperor!"

Seeing the medical worker in this state, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel helpless, as the Fengxian Hall was where all the officials held court.

One can imagine how large the interior space is; the medical worker knelt down to pay his respects after taking only two steps inside.

Although the medic's voice was quite loud, the two were so far apart, how could he ask him a question? Was he supposed to shout back?

Therefore, after the medical worker bowed, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately spoke:

"Alright, I'll allow you to rise. Now, step forward a little further; I have something to ask you."

Zhu Yuanzhang did not raise his voice, but the eunuch beside him shouted out the imperial decree, and then the physician quickly got up.

This time he finally dared to look up and see what was going on around him, but he only glanced at it before quickly going to the bottom of the dragon throne.

As he drew nearer, Zhu Yuanzhang finally couldn't hold back any longer and immediately asked:

"You said you came to report on the matter of the Duke of Zhenguo. What exactly is it? Tell me quickly!"

Without the slightest hesitation, the medical engineer immediately lowered his head and spoke:

"Your Majesty, just now, the Duke of Zhenguo suddenly woke up, and the Imperial Physician sent me to report to you."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang had guessed and hoped for this answer, he was still excited when he actually heard the doctor say it.

Despite being the emperor, he disregarded his status and stood up directly from the dragon throne, quickly walked to the physician, and grabbed his shoulder.

"Is this really true?!"

"Yes, yes, it's true. This humble servant would never dare to deceive Your Majesty."

"Hahahahaha!!"

Upon hearing the medical worker's confirmation, Zhu Yuanzhang disregarded his imperial image and burst into laughter that echoed throughout the Fengxian Hall.

"Good! Good! Good!! This brat has finally decided to wake up. We thought he was going to sleep forever!"

Just as Zhu Yuanzhang burst into laughter, a swift figure flashed past him.

When Zhu Yuanzhang realized what was happening, he saw that it was his eldest son, Zhu Biao, but Zhu Biao had already run to the palace gate.

And it was only when Zhu Yuanzhang had stepped one foot through the gate that he heard Zhu Biao's voice coming from afar.

"Father, I have some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang realized that Zhu Biao was no longer visible at the palace gate.

Although Zhu Biao did not explicitly state what matter he needed to attend to, it was obvious to anyone that he was going to the Imperial Hospital.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang was not dissatisfied with this. To be honest, this was exactly what he was thinking.

So after Zhu Biao left, Zhu Yuanzhang lost interest in continuing to attend court and immediately started walking out of the hall.

As he walked, he made sure to greet all the civil and military officials.

"The court session is adjourned immediately. The matters discussed today will be revisited tomorrow!"

Like Zhu Biao, when these words echoed in the Fengxian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang's figure also disappeared at the hall's entrance.

The civil and military officials inside the Fengxian Hall looked at each other, all completely bewildered.

But the one who was truly most bewildered was Zhu Di. He was just about to receive a commendation from his superiors when suddenly both the top leader and the second-in-command left.

Fortunately, Zhu Di was not a narrow-minded person, and he did not feel any dissatisfaction because of this. On the contrary, he was very happy.

He was also concerned about Wei Wu's safety, after all, he was able to completely pacify the northern desert and make unparalleled contributions thanks to Wei Wu's help.

As a result, Zhu Di returned to the capital yesterday, and as soon as he got home, he learned from Xu Miaoyun that Wei Wu had been assassinated and had been in a coma for more than a month.

He even made a special trip to the Imperial Hospital to visit her, but unfortunately he couldn't be of much help. He could only offer Zhu Yuxuan a few words of comfort before leaving.

Now that he heard that Wei Wu had finally woken up, Zhu Di also wanted to visit him, so he followed the example of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao and ran away.

The emperor ran away, the crown prince ran away, and even the Prince of Yan, who was about to receive the reward, left. Naturally, the officials wouldn't just stand there dumbfounded.

Before long, the once bustling Fengxian Hall became deserted.

On the other side, after Zhu Biao came out of Fengxian Hall, he traveled at top speed, but he was still caught up by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Then the father and son ran more than 200 meters, like in a race, before finally reaching the location where the bicycle rack was parked.

The palace servants who were in charge of guarding and operating the carriages had been doing this job for over a decade and had never seen anything so bizarre.

"Your Majesty, weren't you in the morning court session? Why are you suddenly racing with His Highness the Crown Prince?"

The palace maid stood there blankly, lost in thought, as if she had been struck by lightning.

It wasn't until Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao climbed into the carriage one after the other that he realized what was happening and prepared to ask a question.

However, before he could even open his mouth, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came from inside the carriage.

"Go to the Imperial Hospital immediately!!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

This palace servant was a seasoned veteran; upon hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's anxious tone, he immediately understood what to do next.

He simply responded with three words, then jumped onto the frame, grabbed the reins, and began operating the vehicle.

But this was, after all, the emperor's carriage, which was both magnificent and heavy, so it didn't start very fast.

Therefore, even though the palace servants were already very skilled at operating the vehicle, the speed of the carriage could not be increased for the time being.

Fortunately, the frame was pulled by eight horses, and after getting through the most difficult initial stage, the speed gradually picked up.

After leaving the parking spot, the palace servants immediately pulled on the reins, controlling the horses' direction towards the palace gates.

Just then, Zhu Di's shouts suddenly came from behind the carriage.

"Father, elder brother, wait for me!"

Unfortunately, although Zhu Di's voice was loud, the carriages of that era all had wooden wheels, and the noise they made while rolling was quite loud.

Furthermore, the carriage was moving at a faster speed, so Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, sitting inside, couldn't hear Zhu Di's shouts at all.

Left with no other choice, Zhu Di quickened his pace to catch up, shouting at the top of his lungs as he ran.

"I didn't get on the bus! I didn't get on the bus!! Hey, hey hey hey, I haven't gotten on the bus yet!"
