Ming Dynasty: Abandoned baby at the beginning, Zhu let me be the emperor

He never thought that he would care so much about a baby.

"Yunqi, the baby is hungry."

"Find a wet nurse for this baby as soon as possible."

Upstream of the river, Jinyiwei protected Chen Ling and led the Jinyiwei, and they quickly found the place where Zhu Ming was abandoned along the river.

"It should be around here. Split up and look for it."

Chen Ling ordered loudly.

After a while, a Jinyiwei came to report that a shop was found nearby.

Under his leadership, Chen Ling soon arrived at a small shop in the suburbs. After showing the Jinyiwei token, she immediately asked about Zhu Ming.

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said, "About an hour ago, an old man holding a baby walked quickly past our shop, looking very panicked."

There aren't many people coming and going in the small shop in the suburbs, so the shop owner will subconsciously remember any customers passing by.

"What does the old man look like, and what are the characteristics of the baby in his arms?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling asked again.

He didn't expect that just by asking routine questions, he would actually get a clue.

"not sure."

“But the old man didn’t go towards Yingtian, but went over there.”

"There are only rivers and trees over there, no houses, and no roads..."

"Also...his words and actions are a bit like a eunuch who escaped from the palace..."

Chen Ling's face changed when she heard this: "Are you telling the truth?"

If it were an ordinary person, Chen Ling would not care too much.

But if it was a eunuch from the palace, then the situation would be different.

Once the palace is involved, this matter will definitely not be simple.

If that eunuch really escaped from the palace, then the baby in his arms is very likely to be a prince or grandson of the emperor...

Thinking of this, Chen Ling's face changed again. After signaling his two men to leave, he asked the shop owner again: "Are you sure that what you said is true?"

"Did that old man really come out of the palace?"

The shopkeeper thought for a moment, frowned and said, "Anyway, I think he looks like a eunuch. As for whether he came from the palace, I'm not sure."

"But... eunuchs cannot have children, so this child is most likely taken from the palace."

It is well known that eunuchs cannot have children.

Nine out of ten children who can be touched by eunuchs are from the palace.

So the shop owner concluded that the child must be from the palace.

"Don't tell anyone about what happened today."

"otherwise……"

Chen Ling flashed her embroidered spring sword, her eyes full of threats.

The shopkeeper's face changed, and he said quickly: "I dare not...I dare not."

"You continue to search nearby and make sure to find the old eunuch."

"I will go back first and report this to the commander."

Since it concerns matters within the palace, the nature of the matter is different.

This is definitely not something that a mere centurion like him can handle.

The three guards in brocade uniforms split into two groups and left in a hurry.

Inside the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the baby in his arms and handed it to Yunqi.

"Be careful, the child is asleep."

"How is the wet nurse I asked you to find?"

"The child needs to eat when he wakes up."

Yun Qi carefully took the baby and responded, "Your Majesty, we have contacted them. Once their identity is verified, they will be sent back to the palace."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction.

His gaze fell on Zhu Ming again.

Thinking about the happy times along the way, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if this child was really Biao'er's child."

"However, if we can't find the child's parents, it would be nice for them to stay with us forever."

Yun Qi immediately bowed his head, as if he hadn't heard what he said.

The emperor's thoughts are beyond their ability to guess.

If you are not careful, your head will be separated from your body.

"The more I look at this child, the more I like him."

Zhu Yuanzhang touched Zhu Ming's little face, then waved his hand and said, "We have to go to court, too. You take the child to the side hall to rest first."

After knowing that Zhu Yuanzhang was coming back, the group of ministers were waiting in the Fengtian Hall early.

Although he was dissatisfied with them, since this was a matter concerning the people, Zhu Yuanzhang did not want to let the people wait too long.

The sooner the Henan flood is dealt with, countless people can be saved.

If it weren't for this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang would not have bothered to pay attention to those ministers and would have made them wait as long as he wanted.

"Yes."

Yun Qi held Zhu Ming in his arms and walked carefully to the side hall.

Before reaching the side hall, Zhu Ming had already woken up.

Seeing Zhu Ming wake up, Yun Qi quickly smiled and said, "Little guy, you're awake."

Zhu Ming, whose consciousness was still a little fuzzy, was immediately startled when he heard the sharp male voice.

However, Zhu Ming did not cry or smile, he just looked at Zhu Yuanzhang quietly.

Although Yunqi is also Zhu Yuanzhang's personal eunuch, if you can please Yunqi, you can get a lot of benefits.

But this is true for others, but not very realistic for Zhu Ming.

After all, he had already met Zhu Yuanzhang and was hugged by him, so there was no point in trying to please the eunuch Yunqi.

Instead of having this idea, it would be better to please Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

"The child is really good."

Seeing that Zhu Ming didn't cry or make a fuss and was very well-behaved, Yun Qi couldn't help but smile with joy.

I couldn't help but reach out and touch Zhu Ming's little face.

However, the hand was a little rough, making it difficult for Zhu Ming, who had delicate skin, to touch it.

"Don't touch me, you damn eunuch."

Zhu Ming struggled and tried to push Yun Qi's hand away.

But the baby had no strength at all. Even though Yun Qi was a eunuch and his strength was incomparable to that of an ordinary person, it was still not something that a baby like him could push away.

Unable to push him away, Zhu Ming could only glare at Yun Qi angrily.

However, any movement of the baby will look particularly cute.

Yun Qi saw this, but did not notice anything unusual. Instead, he thought Zhu Ming was trying to please him.

"Little guy, you still want to be with me."

"I'll just have some fun with you."

"Little guy, look what this is?"

Yun Qi smiled, took out a pearl from his arms and teased Zhu Ming.

As a eunuch, I have always stayed in the palace, and the only things I can see on a daily basis are these gold, silver and jewelry.

This pearl was given to him by the Queen Mother in the past, and he has always carried it with him.

Now that he is using it to tease Zhu Ming, one can imagine how much he likes Zhu Ming.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang attached great importance to Zhu Ming, most of his kindness and love for Zhu Ming was out of respect for Zhu Yuanzhang, and some of it was out of genuine love for Zhu Ming.

Staring at Zhu Ming in the cradle, he whispered softly: "Good child, if His Majesty doesn't want you, then I beg His Majesty to give you to me to raise."

Zhu Ming was completely stunned when he heard this.

"Don't do it!"

Zhu Ming prayed in his heart that he would never become Yun Qi's adopted son.

Although he is rich and powerful, he is still a eunuch after all, and the thought of it makes me feel uncomfortable.
