Chapter 204: Prince Jin rescues Queen Ma, and Dai Sigong's family trembles in fear
Seeing this, Zhu Gang bowed and explained: "How dare I blame you, brother, it's just that I have been busy lately.

I have neglected to contact my brother for a while, I hope you will forgive me."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, signaling Zhu Gang to stand up and speak.

After thanking him, Zhu Gang stood up and said, "Actually, this is a long story. My son and I did have a rift due to some misunderstandings.

But now that I think about it carefully, it's all my third brother's fault. I hope you can forgive me."

After hearing Zhu Gang's words, Zhu Biao felt relieved.

He quickly said, "Third brother, you are too kind. We are all brothers. There is no question of forgiving or not forgiving."

Zhu Yuanzhang was very pleased to see this and laughed, "That's great!
Brothers fighting tigers, father and son go into battle.

You brothers must support each other and never harbor grudges against each other."

After saying this, he looked at Zhu Biao and Zhu Gang, his eyes full of expectation and encouragement.

Zhu Gang nodded and said solemnly, "Don't worry, Dad. I will definitely remember your teachings and work hand in hand with you to contribute to the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Biao also quickly expressed his opinion, "Don't worry, Dad, I will take good care of my brothers. We brothers will definitely not let you down."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, and then said to his two sons earnestly: "You brothers must unite as one and face the challenges of the future together.

Only in this way can our Zhu family enjoy long-term stability and the Ming Dynasty prosper. "

After saying this, he looked deeply at Zhu Biao and Zhu Gang, his eyes full of relief.

The reason why Zhu Gang suddenly changed his mind and took on the responsibility of his brother Ni Qiang was that he was the one who took on the responsibility of his brother Ni Qiang.

It was because he thought of a saying that since ancient times, people with deep feelings have always been suspicious.

Zhu Yuanzhang's love and loyalty to Empress Ma was unprecedented, if not unparalleled, but at least unprecedented since the Tang Dynasty.

Under such circumstances, Old Zhu cherished family affection even more, and even forced his three sons to swear an oath that "brothers will not kill each other."

If Zhu Gang admitted that he and the prince were not on good terms, it was to save Lan Yu who had accidentally made a big mistake.

I am afraid that one day in the future, Lan Yu, who was written into the "Record of Traitors", will be charged with another crime of "alienating the royal family".

In particular, history does not provide detailed information about the death of Chang Yuchun's second son Chang Sheng, and there is no detailed record even in the official history.

There have always been two theories: one is that Chang Sheng died in the early years of the Yongle period, and was captured and died while resisting Zhu Di's army with Xu Huizu, Duke of Wei.

Another theory is that he died at the end of the Hongwu period. He was accused of being an accomplice of Lan Yu and was implicated in a rebellion and was killed.

However, among the hundreds of confessions in "Records of Traitors", only Wang Cheng and his son were involved in Chang Sheng.

This shows that Chang Sheng was implicated as a result of Zhu Yuanzhang's in-depth investigation of the "Blue Party" which continued to spread.

After nearly four years of Zhu Gang's unremitting efforts, many major changes have taken place in the Ming Dynasty.

He was not sure whether the "Lan Yu Case" in the 26th year of Hongwu would happen as scheduled.

After all, there has never been a unified account of the deaths of Zhu Biao and Empress Ma in history.

It was a stroke of luck for Zhu Gang that he was able to save Chang Yuchun.

Now he has no idea whether he can save his mother.

He hoped that Qian Ning could bring the patient back to health, but things are unpredictable and Zhu Gang eventually received bad news.

"I am a humble person with little knowledge and only know that the queen is suffering from horse carbuncle.

As for how to treat it specifically, I really have no idea! ”

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gang immediately remembered that there was indeed a story in history about "Empress Ma suffering from horse carbuncle".

Although horse carbuncle is not a difficult disease, it is a big deal when it happens to Empress Ma.

After all, the ancients believed that men and women should not touch each other, not to mention that the patient they were facing was Empress Ma, the mother of the country. Therefore, the imperial doctors were very timid when they were treating the patient, and did not dare to offend him in the slightest.

Naturally, it was impossible to diagnose the real disease, and the use of gynecological medicines was based on speculation, so Empress Ma's condition did not improve.

Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to Zhu Gang's mind.

"Doctor Qian, the imperial doctors are unable to diagnose what disease the Queen Mother is suffering from. How did you determine this?"

Qian Ning asked someone to bring a bamboo chair covered with white powder, "What I used is the medical method of a famous doctor in the previous dynasty, who sprinkled powder to seek shadow.

I am just repeating what others have said. I am sorry to make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Prince of Jin laugh at me."

Zhu Gang took the bamboo chair and examined it carefully.

"I know how to cure your mother's illness, but this situation may make..."

Before Zhu Gang could finish his words, Zhu Yuanzhang grabbed his arm.

"Third brother, you are not trying to trick dad with words, are you really able to cure our sister's illness?"

Zhu Gang nodded and said, "Don't be impatient, old man. Let's be clear about this first.

The treatment will be painful, so please don’t cause me any trouble.”

Zhu Biao smiled and waved his hand, "Now everyone in the world knows that the Prince of Jin and I, the Crown Prince, are both my father's favorite sons.

Besides, this is for the Queen Mother's medical treatment. If it doesn't work out, then Dad will blame you. Will you still have your brother to support you?"

I thought carefully in my mind about the method used by the Ming Dynasty doctor to treat Empress Ma.

Zhu Gang then began to modify the bamboo chair. Seeing his third brother cut the bamboo strips into small bamboo knives and install them on the chair, Zhu Biao couldn't help but frown.

"Third brother, are you using this to treat our mother, or are you planning on using it to torture someone?"

What words, what is this word?

I am not the famous "Geng Handong" in later generations, so how could I have come up with those terrifying inventions?

Of course, Zhu Gang could understand his elder brother. After all, even a well-known folk doctor like Qian Ning did not dare to use this method to treat Queen Ma.

"This treatment method was not invented by me, but was told to me by a folk doctor."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was pacing around, suddenly asked, "What's the name of that folk doctor, and where is he from?"

Zhu Gang knew very well that once he uttered the name "Dai Sigong".

The Embroidered Uniform Guard will definitely investigate this person's entire family lineage.

However, in the future, when my mother and elder brother fall ill, there will be an imperial physician with excellent medical skills to see them.

Zhu Gang finally decided to let Dai Sigong suffer temporarily.

"His name was Dai Sigong, courtesy name Yuanli, and he was from Pujiang, Wuzhou (now in Zhejiang).

The 21st generation grandson of Dai Zhao, the governor of Pingnan, the official of Yinqing Guanglu, and the minister of Shangshu in the Tang Dynasty, he can be considered a descendant of a famous family. "

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment, and finally called Mao Xiang and said, "Go and find the man that the King of Jin mentioned. If the method he provided can really cure our sister,

We will allow him to be promoted to the position of Fengzheng Dafu and the Director of the Imperial Hospital. If he is a fraud, then we will exile his entire family to Lingnan."

The highest chief of the Imperial Medical Service in the Yuan Dynasty was the Ti Dian, who had 12 members under him.

The Director of the Imperial Medical Service in the Ming Dynasty had replaced the highest medical officer of the Imperial Medical Service, and his official rank was the fifth grade.

However, Zhu Gang believed that even so, Dai Sigong would never be grateful for his support.
