THE PRINCE OF HERBS

1389 AD, Ming Dynasty, China "Guardsmen! Take him to his exile in Yunnan, right now!" "Fu Huang!..." "Shut up! Oh... how can my own son stab me from behind... Not only other people I can't trust, and now I can't even trust my own son either!... It's far more painful..." *** "Tomorrow morning," Xie Wang said slowly. "Tomorrow morning... you will see dozens of dead bodies lying all over the streets in Yunnan." Xie Wang looked straight to Zhu Su, his eyes as sharp as a knife, "This is a war. The battle between me, Yuan Prince, and you Ming Prince. A battle to determine who is the most suitable to be the next ruler of Yunnan!" *** "Your Highness... Bad news, Your Highness!" Wu Qi was breathless as he answered, "All streets in Yunnan... are full of dead bodies..." Zhu Su stunned. It can't be, Witchcrafts of Xie Wang is the hell real?!? He just walked not any longer, yet he had found a dead body was lying face down on the street. The farther he walked, the more corpses he found. And finally, he arrived at the town square, where people had been crowded together. *** "I am Zhu Su, the fifth son of Hongwu Emperor, I promise to smash the Witchcrafts of Xie Wang, and get you all free from the outbreak!" Zhu Su sharpened his voice. "The promise from a leader is not a children's game. Bear it in mind!" A man in early forties, who seemed to be the leader of rebels, held his spear up, shouted, "Fine! We appreciate your determination, Ming Prince, so keep your promise! If you fail to keep it up, then I'll make sure that Ming honor, as well as yours, will be ruined!" *** A biographical novel of Prince Zhu Su, the fifth prince of the Hongwu Emperor who was the founder of Ming Dynasty, who devoted himself for medical science and humanity. But before he could fulfil his devotion, he was forced to go through royal disputes, conflicts, power struggles, punishments, rebellions, and even death threats. Could he overcome those problems and reached his noble dream? Find out in this novel. This is a work of biographical novel about a real historical figure.

ZHOU WANG'S MAD DECISION 1

Finally, Zhu Su was able to speak out that word. No matter how evil Zhu Yi was, he was his younger brother, how come he had the heart to announce such a terrible thing. His father had suffered a lot because many of his children left this world at a very young age. And now, Zhu Yi was also going to follow their footsteps soon. As an elder brother, how come he told this...

... But if he did not tell this, Zhu Yi would still continue this bad lifestyle.

After all, he just followed Zhu Yi's advice, which was evidently suitable to the adviser himself. He could not be properly advised, which meant he must get such a threatening. Who knew, by being scared like this Zhu Yi would be willing to change his lifestyle.

"If you keep doing these evil things you will die soon!" Zhu Su shouted out. "So, stop your activities, if you want to live a long life!"

"You... are cursing me to die quickly?..."

"I don't curse you, I just read the diagnosis based on your Mian Xiang * ..."

"No! You curse me to die quickly!" Zhu Yi screamed. "I advise you because I want you to live peacefully and happily, but you curse me instead!"

It turned out that Zhu Yi was just manipulating Zhu Su to excuse his bad intention. He hoped, if Zhu Su followed his advice, he would still be able to do his immoral actions. So all of the philosophical sayings he uttered earlier were no more than manipulation arguments. Zhu Yi was evidently a clever tongue-twitcher. It was also what helped him evade Zhu Di's punishment. He thought that Zhu Su would be the same as Zhu Di, could be trapped by his manipulations and then set him free...

Because the manipulation did not work, Zhu Yi exploded with rage. His Fifth Brother even curse him to die too!

His rage soon multiplied several times.

"How cruel you are, you have the heart to curse me... it's beyond my expectation since you are a medic who are supposed to help sick people..."

"I'm trying to help you, Yi... That's why I tell you that fact, so you can heal yourself..." said Zhu Su, he was very tired of Zhu Yi.

"Fifth Brother... a Fan Wang mustn't leave his Fan Wang Guo, must he?"

Zhu Su was shocked. Zhu Yi's topic suddenly twisted, even to this topic. Zhu Yi himself was looking at him with strange eyes.

"Now you are leaving Kaifeng... It's impossible for you to get permission from the Emperor just to come here, right..." Zhu Yi's eyes flashed. "But now you come here... aren't you afraid of being punished by the Emperor?..."

"What the hell, how dare you threaten me?!..."

"One vs One. Draw. You also curse me."

Zhu Yi now crossed his arms, acting like someone who had won in battle. However, he indeed had won this argument. He managed to hold the key to Zhu Su's weakness, the key that could even immediately kill him with just a move of his mouth...

Something exploded in Zhu Su's head. It was not the fright. Precisely because he was so frightened by Zhu Yi's threat, his fury suddenly sprang to life. It was this anger that gave him the following inspiration.

Zhu Su said slowly, "You report me, and I will immediately report your immoral to the Emperor."

"The Emperor will ignore it, Bro! Don't bother yourself!" Zhu Yi shouted confidently.

"But I'm sure that the Emperor has not yet got this part. That you captive the villagers' girls even from areas outside your control? Also you often have sex parties with underage boys and girls?"

This time, Zhu Yi's confidence was immediately shattered. His triumphant expression disappeared, his eyes began to glance around restlessly. His voice was hoarse as he said, "No, Bro!..."

"Don't you want us to be one versus one and get a draw? You are cruel to your brother who does good to you, so you have chosen this way by yourself?"

Zhu Yi clenched his fists furiously, but he remained quiet.

"I tell you once again, if you don't change your immoral lifestyle, you will really die young. Don't argue with me with such nonsense statement that you can do anything with power, because I can't win arguing over you. Instead, think about yourself. Have pity on your organs. They are very exhausted and can't stand to be pushed anymore, don't push them just to satisfy the endless lust. Our physical strength will never be able to match our lust, because lust is unboundless and you'll never satisfy it forever. That's all my advice to you, Yi. Be kind to your own body."

Zhu Su rose to his feet. Once again he stared thoroughly at Zhu Yi. Zhu Yi was still sullen, his expression remained unchanged. He did not put Zhu Su's advice into his mind. The advice was countered by his immoral lust.

Some people can be advised, but some can't be. Yi is one of those people who can't be advised. I apologize, Fu Huang, I have tried my best to make Yi aware, but this is beyond my capability...

Zhu Su, Hu Nayin, and Wu Qi went out of the palace of Yi Fan Wang Guo.

***

Arriving in Kaifeng, Zhu Su immediately gathered all members of the Team of Wellbeing.

"From my observation, all of you have worked very diligently in our research. You have worked tirelessly day and night, what a tremendous effort! I really appreciate your hard work." Standing at the front, Zhu Su began his speech.

The entire team bowed respectfully. "Thank you for your honor!"

"Yes, we need to be diligent, but according to my observations, no matter how hard you work, this project will still fail, because we are based on the wrong methodology."

This moment they appeared confused. "Which part is wrong?" Teng Shuo asked.

"First, lots of plants aren't recorded in our books. We will keep wandering in the foggy area if we only use these books as our guide."

"That's why you also invite Kaifeng people to take participate in sharing their experiences, right?" Li Heng asked.

"Yes. They give a big contribution, but it is still not enough because after all, they are just commoners, they only hear the news but they can't provide reliable knowledge. We need more help. The help from those who possess excellent knowledge and experience in both medical and agricultural science."

"But... Our team consists of professional experts, right?" Qu You were confused. "And you said, we still need more help?"

Shocked, Wu Qi stared closely at Zhu Su. He was really surprised as his lord actually carried out that idea!

"We're not going to seek help from medical physicians. Instead, we seek help from witchdoctors."
