During this month, Zhu Houjiu had been practicing some sword techniques and martial arts that he had learned from the system. With the help of the Body Strengthening Pill in the system, Zhu Houjiu had become a powerful martial arts expert in the Ming Dynasty.
"Father, Mother!"
After Zhu Houjin arrived at the front hall, he first bowed to the Xingxian Prince couple according to the custom of the Prince's mansion.
"Son!"
When the Xingxian King couple saw Zhu Houjin, their faces were filled with solemnity.
"Ah Wu must have told you just now that the Imperial Court has sent someone over to take you into the palace to be the Emperor. However, we can't be the emperor no matter what.”
The Princess Consort of King Xingxian got down from her chair and pulled Zhu Houjin's hand to sit to the side.
"Son, listen to mother. The few ministers in power in the court are Yang Ting and the others. These old fellows have power over the world and are simply lawless. The previous emperor, your cousin Zhu Houzhao, was assassinated by them.”
"These old fellows definitely have ill intentions when they ask you to be the emperor. If you go there at such a young age, you won't be a threat to them at all. Perhaps these old fellows will be unhappy and kill you again like how they killed your cousin!”
The Xingxian King was a vassal king of the Ming Dynasty. His vision was much better than the Xingxian Princess Consort's, and he calmly expressed his views on this matter.
"Wang 'er, there is no doubt that the reason why Yang Tinghe and the others want you to be the Emperor is because they want you to be a puppet. Yang Tinghe hasn't appointed an emperor for more than a month. If this drags on any longer, it will definitely cause a huge change. Moreover, you are still young, so it will be easy for Yang Tinghe to control you!”
"Father estimates that after Yang Tinghe and the others continue to grow in strength, they might plot to usurp the throne. At that time, you, the puppet emperor, will definitely be killed by them. Sigh, the puppet emperor still had to carry the title of the fallen emperor of the Ming Dynasty. It was really embarrassing. If it really doesn't work, we can also rebel like Prince Ning!”
At this moment, the people standing in the front hall were all trusted aides of Prince Xingxian's residence. Everyone had also heard that the Ming Dynasty was very dangerous, so they all came over to advise Zhu Houjiu to ignore the court and live comfortably as a young prince in Anlu.
After all, the current Great Ming Imperial Court was simply a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. It was a wolf's den that ate people without spitting out the bones. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang was reborn, he would be bitten by the powerful officials in the court.
When everyone was advising Zhu Houjin, he had a very calm expression on his face. When everyone's words came to an end, Zhu Houjin couldn't help but laugh.
"What? Son, what are you…laughing at?”
Everyone in the Prince's mansion was thinking about how to properly handle this matter and reject the invitation of the Imperial Court. But at this moment, Zhu Houjin was laughing inexplicably, causing them to be dumbfounded.
"Father, you don't need to persuade me!" Zhu Houjin waved his hand, and his eyes shone with incomparable confidence." I'm definitely going to be the Emperor of Ming Dynasty!”
"Ah?"
When the people of the Imperial Residence saw Zhu Houjin like this, they were all stunned by his expression.
This…you want to be the emperor of Ming Dynasty? To go to the extremely dangerous palace, to bear the pressure of Yang Tinghe and the other powerful officials, and to be a puppet emperor who had been killed at some unknown time?
"Son, you…didn't you listen to us? The court is in danger now. If you go, you'll be courting death!”
After the Xingxian King couple came to their senses, they shouted in their hearts that they couldn't do it. The two of them wanted to make a final effort to stop Zhu Houjing from doing something stupid.
"Father, you don't have to say anymore! Since ancient times, which struggle in the imperial court had not been cruel and bloody? "If you want to sit on the throne, you have to pay the price in blood. This is applicable to Yang Tinghe, and it is also applicable to me!”
As Zhu Houjin spoke, his eyes flickered with determination and ruthlessness. When the Xingxian King couple saw this, their bodies trembled.
"In addition, don't worry, Father and Mother. After your son enters the palace, he will definitely not be a puppet emperor that can be manipulated by others. Please remember this!”
"Ah?"
The strange radiance on Zhu Houzhen's face shocked the couple. Suddenly, they looked at Zhu Houjiu in front of them and suddenly felt that he was somewhat unfamiliar.
What was going on?
This…Was this person still her son who only knew how to eat, drink, and play?
He clearly looked like a calm and resolute emperor!
Everyone in Prince Xingxian's manor was stunned by Zhu Houjiu's words. They never expected that the profligate son they usually saw was actually such a domineering and intelligent youth.
If such a youth really entered the palace, then who the power of Da Ming would ultimately belong to was really an unknown number.
"Ah Wu, come with me and pack your things!”
"What? Yes, Your Highness!"
Zhu Houyan ignored the dumbfounded crowd and brought A'wu back to pack up and prepare to enter the capital. It took the couple a long time to recover from their shock.
"This…that person just now was our son?”
"Sigh, of course! Don't tell me we've raised him for 15 years and still don't know him?”
"But…when did our son become so domineering?”
The Xingxian King couple couldn't believe their eyes. They didn't expect that the only person they knew who could eat, drink, and play would become so powerful.
The Xingxian King couple suddenly realized that they were starting to be unable to see through their son.
……
Zhu Houjin's system could store items, and he had already stored the important things in the system. Therefore, there wasn't much worth packing in the room.
When Zhu Houjin brought Ah Wu out of the room with some luggage, the Xingxian Wang couple was waiting outside the door worriedly. After consoling the couple, Zhu Houxin strode out of the door with his luggage.
"Where is Xiao Chenggui?"
"Oh!"
Xiao Chenggui and the others were waiting beside the horses. When Xiao Chenggui heard someone calling him, he hurriedly walked over and saw that the person standing at the door was a handsome young man with an imposing appearance.
"Xiao Chenggui is here. May I ask who you are…"
"This Highness is Zhu Houyou, the son of King Xingxian! Get ready now, we'll return to the capital immediately!”
"Ah…yes!"
Before Xiao Chenggui came to Anlu, he had heard about the son of King Xingxian. He had heard that Zhu Houzhen was a hedonistic son of a rich family since he was young. He had thought that this kid was definitely a good-for-nothing who only knew how to eat, drink, and play.
However, after seeing it with his own eyes, Xiao Chenggui found that Zhu Houjiu's aura was threatening, and his every move carried a faint domineering aura, making people feel a little afraid.
Although he was still young, this youth was already destined to be an extraordinary figure in the future.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chenggui's heart trembled. He turned around and personally led a tall horse draped in yellow.
"Good! Your Highness, please get on your horse. We'll return to the capital now!”
