Chapter 1440
Zhu Di ran very fast and shouted loudly, but unfortunately he still couldn't catch up with the carriage in the end.
The key point is that he has already been running behind the bike for half the distance, so there's no point in chasing him now, and turning back is pointless.
So he gritted his teeth and ran to the Imperial Hospital on foot, since it wasn't a particularly long distance anyway.
While Zhu Di was running at full speed, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao had already safely arrived at the Imperial Hospital.
Inside the ward, Physician Xu was talking to Wei Wu when the door was suddenly pushed open with a bang, and the two rushed into the ward.
Upon seeing Wei Wu's open eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately began to complain:
"You little rascal, you've finally decided to wake up. Do you know that because of your accident, your aunt has been blaming us for a whole month?"
“We haven’t been able to step into Kunning Palace for a whole month. As the ruler of a country, we can’t even see the Empress. Is this acceptable?”
Although Zhu Yuanzhang's words were full of complaints, the smile on his face revealed that he was a typical hypocrite.
Before Wei Wu could respond, Zhu Biao, who was standing to the side, also spoke up.
"Xiao Wu, you're finally awake! I'm so glad you're alright, so glad you're alright!"
Seeing the attitudes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, Physician Xu was secretly alarmed.
He knew that Wei Wu was very important to the Zhu family, but this scene still had a great impact on him.
After all, he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was in court, and logically there was no way he could have arrived at the Imperial Hospital so quickly.
But since the person has already arrived, it can only mean one thing: in order to see Wei Wu as soon as possible, the emperor ended the morning court session early.
Few people throughout history have enjoyed such treatment, and Cao Cao of the Ming Dynasty was the only one to receive it!
In fact, not only Physician Xu, but even Wei Wu did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao would arrive so quickly.
After a brief moment of surprise, Wei Wu slowly spoke:
"Uncle Zhu, aren't you and your eldest brother at the morning court session? Your fourth brother has returned in triumph; shouldn't we be rewarding him for his contributions today?"
Upon hearing Wei Wu's words, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao exchanged a smile, then spoke frankly:
"It's no problem to postpone your fourth brother's reward by a day or two. You're a treasure of the Ming Dynasty, much more important than your fourth brother."
Although Zhu Yuanzhang's statement had a slightly utilitarian element, it was still an objective fact.
At the same time, Wei Wu also understood that Zhu Yuanzhang's ability to arrive so quickly was not solely due to his own importance.
After all, everyone has a heart, and the fact that he didn't express it directly doesn't mean that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have personal feelings involved.
Therefore, after hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Wei Wu felt warm inside, because he had an elder who cared for him.
However, what was a heartwarming and comforting remark to Wei Wu was not only unwelcoming to others, but instead felt like a chilling wind.
This person was Zhu Di, who was panting heavily as he rushed from the palace to the sickroom where Wei Wu was recuperating.
Because the door had just been pushed open by Zhu Yuanzhang, the people inside did not immediately notice when Zhu Di arrived.
Zhu Di had just pushed open the door when he heard his father say such heartbreaking words.
If this had happened behind his back, he would have just pretended not to hear it, but now these words were said to his face.
Just as Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the people inside the room happened to see Zhu Di standing at the door of the ward.
This awkward situation left Zhu Di unsure whether to go in or out, leaving him frozen at the gate.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the ward became somewhat eerie.
Fortunately, at this moment, Wei Wu spoke up and dispelled the strange atmosphere.
"Fourth Brother, I heard that you came to the Imperial Hospital to see me as soon as you returned to the capital yesterday. It's just a pity that I woke up a day late."
