King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 129 The Crown Prince: It hurts my heart, old man!

The palace of the King of Han.

Zhu Gaoxu was in a daze. It was not until he got off the carriage that he recovered his distant thoughts and came back from his meditation.

However, the expression on his face was not at all relaxed. It was full of solemnity and worry. All he was thinking about were those three gods. Did they see any clues in him? Could they be right? What adverse impact did he have?

Da da da.

At this moment, the slave who had been waiting quietly at the gate saw Zhu Gaoxu and ran quickly to his side, bowed and saluted:

"Slave, please see your Majesty."

Seeing the hurried look on the visitor's face, a trace of doubt flashed in Zhu Gaoxu's eyes, and he asked in a deep voice:

"what happened?"

"What happened?"

"Why so panic?"

Are you still waiting for him to come back?

After saying this, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but frown, his eyes full of doubts.

"But Prince Zhao thinks the main hall is too stuffy, so he asked me to wait in the pavilion where you often rest."

"The king knows."

Ta-ta-ta...

"My original intention was to arrange for them to rest in the main hall and wait for the prince to return."

Listening to the question, the slave lowered his head and hurriedly reported:

ha?

What happened to these two bastards that they gathered in his mansion at the same time?

Say it.

"Report to the prince."

Zhu Gaoxu smiled noncommittally, waved his hand at him, and said:

After thinking for a short time, Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have thought of something. A hint of enlightenment flashed in his eyes. He raised his eyebrows and smiled:

Otherwise, the old man would definitely not have the time, mood, and leisure to arrange for someone to read his face. I am afraid he would have been very busy for a long time.

The two people who were chatting casually saw a familiar figure walking from a distance. Zhu Gaosui put down the teacup in his hand and spoke first:

At this moment, the sound of heavy footsteps came from outside the courtyard.

"My servant doesn't know what happened. Not long after you left the mansion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Zhao came to visit you one after another. They have been waiting for you in the mansion for a long time."

You must know that he just came back from the old man's place. Logically speaking, it is impossible for anything important to happen in the court.

In the pavilion, Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui sat opposite each other, sipping the hot tea in their hands from time to time, chatting endlessly.

He simply arranged his thoughts and robes, and strode towards the mansion.

"Row!"

"Where are they two now?"

Zhu Gaoxu: "???"

"Second brother, you are finally back."

"It really makes me and the boss wait!"

"Where were you running this early in the morning?"

While asking, Zhu Gaochi, who was sitting aside, also looked over curiously.

Zhu Gaoxu did not answer. Instead, he looked at the two of them meaningfully and asked:

"Why, why are you so free today?"

"Boss and Third, how come you two have time to come to my house?"

Listening to the question, the two looked at each other for a moment. After a moment of silence, they asked in unison:

"Second brother, what's going on here?"

"We heard this morning that Princess Han and Qiu Fu's entire family left Yingtian Mansion for the Yunnan fiefdom?"

"Did the old man promise you to go to the fiefdom and become a vassal?"

Seeing the doubtful glances of the two people on him, Zhu Gaoxu's expression changed slightly, and he looked straight at the two people in front of him. He took a sip of the hot tea in the cup and asked nonchalantly:

"Boss, third child."

"Irrespective of whether the old man agrees to let me go and become a vassal state, as far as the two of you really think, do you want me to go to the fiefdom and become a vassal state?"

This statement came out.

The entire courtyard suddenly became eerily quiet.

The expressions on the faces of the two people who were asked changed from time to time, and they were stunned on the spot. They didn't know how to answer this question for a while. It doesn't seem appropriate to say that I want to, and it doesn't seem appropriate to say that I don't want to.

After being silent for a while, Zhu Gaochi awkwardly stretched out his hand to spare his head, smiled coquettishly, and quickly waved his hand and replied:

"hey hey"

"I see what you are asking."

"It is me and the third child who can decide this matter. Isn't it only the old man who can decide everything?"

"We asked this out of pure curiosity."

"Haha." Zhu Gaoxu sneered and glanced at him.

There was actually nothing to hide about this matter. Given their identities, it was only a matter of time before he left Beijing, so he immediately replied:

"Okay!"

"We are brothers and sisters, who doesn't know who the other is?"

"I really want to go to the vassal ceremony, but the old man won't let me go."

"Where did it go?"

"Do not worry!"

Zhu Gaochi: "???"

Zhu Gaosui: "????"

What?

If you don’t go, you will become a feudal lord?

Then why did all the family members in the mansion leave Beijing and go to the Yunnan fiefdom?

What kind of cool operation is this?

The two of them were immediately dumbfounded, looking at Zhu Gaoxu in disbelief, with doubts in their eyes.

"Second brother, since you don't want to go, I will become a vassal."

"Then why are Princess Han's family members and Qiu Fu's family going to your fiefdom?"

"What are you and the old man doing?"

"Why am I a little confused and can't understand it at all?"

After hearing the question, Zhu Gaojiu ignored Zhu Gaosui, and turned to stare at the prince with deep eyes for a long time. He smiled "hehe" and said:

"can't read?"

"What can't you understand?"

"It's just a precautionary measure."

Zhu Gaosui said in confusion:

"Preparing for a rainy day?"

"The situation in the court is now stable and there is no turmoil."

"What can we prepare for?"

As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something, looked over with a look of surprise, and said:

"Second brother, I'm afraid the old man is going to make some big move if he's not above the court?"

"It shouldn't be!"

"If this is really the case, why didn't the old man inform me and the boss?"

Seeing his random speculation, Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand at him with a smile on his face, directly interrupted his subsequent words, and responded:

"No, no."

"There is no problem in the court, and it has nothing to do with the old man."

After that, he focused his gaze on the prince, squinted his eyes, and said with a half-smile:

"Lao San, what I call preparing for a rainy day is not for the present, but for the future."

"It's not like you don't know our awkward position."

"As the saying goes: Once the emperor and his courtiers are together, it is not because they are afraid that if some people come to power, they will start to liquidate them."

"Let's see if we can. Send the family members out as soon as possible so that they have as little involvement as possible. In case some people's kindness fails to spare their lives."

"Even if they can't, let them stay away from disputes and spend some time in peace in the fief."

"We have a clear conscience. No."

"Third brother, do you want to consider sending your family members out too???"
