Chapter 2896 Homely Warmth
In a blink of an eye, two more days passed.
That morning, Prince Wei Zhu Chengxuan sorted out several things he had done, wrote them into official documents and submitted them to the imperial study. As soon as he walked in, he happened to meet the imperial physician Wang Baizhi changing the medicine for the emperor.
The air was filled with a strong smell of medicine and a faint smell of blood.
Wang Baizhi frowned and said, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty's wound is not healing well."
Zhu Feng glanced at him and said, "Oh."
"Your Majesty has been overworked these days. If he can rest well and eat more nourishing and warming foods, it will help the wound heal."
"I understand."
Although he said so, Wang Baizhi could tell that Zhu Feng didn't take it seriously at all.
In fact, Zhu Feng had suffered such injuries more than once in the army in the past. He had even suffered more serious injuries than this one. At that time, there were no such stable conditions for his recuperation. He recovered slowly while riding on horseback in the military camp.
Therefore, Zhu Feng never took these injuries seriously.
As long as he didn't fall into a coma and the government was not in chaos, he didn't think it would have much impact.
Seeing him like this, Wang Baizhi knew that it was useless for her to say more. She just secretly thought that she had to find a time to talk to the imperial concubine and ask her to persuade him. Maybe the emperor would be willing to listen.
So, after changing the medicine, I put on the bandage again.
Wang Baizhi said, "I will take my leave."
Zhu Feng waved at him.
Wang Baizhi deliberately went out and met Zhu Chengxuan at the door. He immediately bowed and saluted. Zhu Chengxuan nodded at him and then walked into the imperial study.
He walked all the way to the couch where Zhu Feng was sitting, kowtowed and said, "Your Highness greets His Majesty."
Zhu Feng was originally reading a folded document. When he heard him come in, he turned around and said, "You're here."
"I just saw Doctor Wang coming over. Is he changing the medicine for Father?"
"Um."
"Father's injury has not healed yet..."
"It's just a small matter."
Zhu Feng put down the memorial in his hand and said, "What are you doing here?"
Zhu Chengxuan presented the documents in his hand: "These are some matters that I handled while your Majesty was recuperating in bed a few days ago. Now that they are all completed, I am presenting them to your Majesty for your review."
"oh……"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Feng took it and took a look.
Several official documents were written concisely and the work was done efficiently.
Zhu Feng saw the last document, which was about the issue they had discussed in the court on how to deal with the Japanese pirates on the southeast coast. He said, "Has Zhao Gan already arranged for the troops to go to Japan?"
"yes."
Zhu Chengxuan said, "I have repeatedly told them to send a message back immediately if there is any news."
"Um."
Zhu Feng nodded.
Continue reading.
At the end of the document, Zhu Chengxuan also suggested that two assistant ministers be transferred from the Ministry of Rites or other ministries to the Honglu Temple to be specifically responsible for managing matters related to exchanges between Japan and the maritime countries.
Zhu Feng took a look and said, "Is this necessary?"
Zhu Chengxuan lowered his head and said softly, "Although the current invasion of the Japanese pirates is a matter for the Ministry of War, I believe that we should always be prepared for anything. Since the court has appointed Zhao Gan as the envoy to Japan, it has already made diplomatic relations the main theme of its foreign policy."
Zhu Feng nodded.
Zhu Chengxuan continued, "In addition, the emperor will further open up the coastal defenses. I heard that many overseas countries are also interested in trading with our Great Yan Dynasty."
“…”
"In this case, the Honglu Temple will need to pay more attention not only to deal with the countries in the Western Regions, but also the southeastern coastal areas."
Zhu Feng looked at him. Although he didn't say much, his eyes showed a hint of relief and even some appreciation.
It is true that children from poor families have to grow up early. Because their parents cannot take good care of them, the children have to support themselves. Before, he felt that this child was too kind and not calm and sophisticated enough to inherit his empire.
But now it seems that being in a coma for a while was not entirely a bad thing.
At least, the child has grown a lot during this period of time.
Things were done properly and beautifully, and the child even noticed some details that he had not thought of before.
He said, "Okay, I approve of this." Zhu Chengxuan said, "Thank you, Father."
Zhu Feng said, "The specific selection of people and how to organize the team are all up to you. If you have any questions, go and discuss it with Gu Tingqiu and Si Muyun."
Zhu Chengxuan looked up at him.
Zhu Feng said, "Especially Si Muyun. His father was the previous Minister of the Ministry of Rites. He has some experience in these matters."
When Zhu Chengxuan heard this, his eyes lit up.
In fact, when he was writing this document, he thought that if he wanted to transfer someone to the Honglu Temple to manage these matters, Si Muyun would indeed be the best choice.
Including this time, it can be seen in the turmoil.
This person is available.
Zhu Feng's words undoubtedly revealed his own meaning. Zhu Chengxuan immediately said, "Your Highness understands."
Zhu Feng then handed the document back to him, and glanced at his son again, a faint smile on his face, and said, "I see you've lost a lot of weight recently. Is it because you're busy?"
Zhu Chengxuan said, "I am sorry that I cannot share your worries with your father, and that he cannot rest and recuperate."
Zhu Feng said, "You can't become a fat man in one bite."
“…”
"Don't rush anything, take your time. Once you get the hang of it, you can handle a lot of things."
"I understand."
Zhu Feng took another look at him and found that the boy had grown a lot taller. The reason why he was so thin was probably because he was growing. So he said, "You look too thin. Have you been eating well recently?"
Zhu Chengxuan said, "Don't worry, Father. The Imperial Concubine has always told me to eat well. Oh, and today at noon, the Imperial Concubine even asked me to go to Yonghe Palace to have lunch with her, my brothers and sisters."
"oh?"
A deeper smile appeared in Zhu Feng's eyes.
For a man like him, rare treasures, delicacies from land and sea, and even great military achievements are unlikely to arouse joy in his heart. Instead, a little homely warmth will make him feel happy.
He asked, "Do you often eat together?"
Zhu Chengxuan said, "Yes, the Imperial Concubine often said that I was too thin and in poor health, so she often called me over to have meals with my brothers and sisters and her."
Zhu Feng said: "Then don't disappoint the imperial concubine and eat more."
"yes."
Zhu Chengxuan responded, then looked up at his father and said softly, "Then father... father, do you want to go with us?"
