In the 18th year of Hongzhi's reign in the Ming Dynasty, in the Qianqing Palace of the Forbidden City in Beijing, the hard-working Emperor Zhu Youtang of the Ming Dynasty, although he had just reached the age of thirty-six, was already full of wrinkles, and his life was about to come to an end, and his face was full of wrinkles. It was dark in color. What was even more frightening was that Zhu Youtang's nose was bleeding continuously and he couldn't stop it. He could only be wiped away from time to time by the young man serving next to him.

Zhu Youtang also felt that his end was coming. He summoned Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and other ministers into the palace, ordered them to take care of the prince, and officially passed the throne to the prince Zhu Houzhao, who is now serving by his side. After that, Zhu Youtang drove everyone out of Qianqing Palace, leaving only Zhu Houzhao alone.

Zhu Houzhao is only fifteen years old this year. He has a handsome figure and a handsome appearance. Although his face still has a bit of childishness, it can be seen that he will definitely be a sunny and handsome guy in the future. But now his face is full of sadness. She was crying silently while helping her father wipe away the nosebleed.

Seeing his son's face full of tears, Zhu Youtang, who was already on his deathbed, stretched out his withered arms. It seemed that he wanted to wipe Zhu Houzhao's tears, but because his death was approaching, the strength in his body was gradually disappearing. He raised his arms. His arms had exhausted all his strength.

Seeing his father's appearance, Zhu Houzhao hurriedly grabbed his father's hand and put it on his cheek. At the same time, he cried sadly: "Father, I don't cry! I don't cry! I don't let my father worry about me anymore!" "

Although Zhu Houzhao said he would not cry, the tears in his eyes were flowing more and more. After all, he was only a fifteen-year-old boy, and he was usually very doted on and very dependent on his father. Now His father was about to pass away, which made Zhu Houzhao feel unprecedented confusion and pain.

Feeling his son's attachment to him, Zhu Youtang twitched the corners of his mouth and tried to show a comforting smile. But then he tried hard to break away from his son's hand, then stretched out a finger, first pointed at his heart, and then Pointing at Zhu Houzhao, a fiery emotion burst out in his eyes.

Zhu Houzhao also nodded heavily to his father's actions, which only his son understood the meaning of. He said with tears in his eyes: "Father, don't worry, I understand what you mean. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, I will help you." Fulfill this unfulfilled wish!"

Zhu Youtang, who could no longer speak, had a happy smile on his face when he heard his son's assurance. Then he tried hard to stretch out his fingers, trying to help his son wipe away his tears for the last time, but just as his fingers touched When Zhu Houzhao looked at the corner of his eyes, his whole body suddenly relaxed, and his whole eyes felt dark, and his body became extremely light, as if he was flying at this moment.

However, Zhu Houzhao felt that his father's body in his arms was heavy, and then there was no sound anymore. This made the young Zhu Houzhao understand something immediately, and he burst into tears. The ministers outside the palace also heard the news, and they also cried and wailed endlessly.
