After all, they knew their own business. Although the zhenqi cultivated by the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique was pure and condensed, causing the aura emitted to be very weak, it was only limited to ordinary people.
Zhu Bujue, was that an ordinary person?
Even the Emperor, a Xiantian expert, could see Zhu Houzhao's rapid progress. The Iron Gut Divine Marquis, the no. 1 expert in the Ming Empire, could probably see through Zhu Houzhao's background with a single glance.
As long as he stayed in the Ming Empire, Zhu Houzhao would inevitably meet with Zhu Bujue, his Imperial Uncle. At that time, his rapid growth would definitely cause Zhu Bujue to be wary.
If Zhu Houzhao was determined to harm someone, Zhu Houzhao, as the Crown Prince, would not be able to protect him. Not to mention killing Zhu Houzhao, sneaking into the Crown Prince Residence and crippling Zhu Houzhao's dantian and meridians was as easy as playing with him.
Fleeing thousands of miles away to avoid the sharp edge of the sword. Although it sounded a little cowardly, this was the way of a smart person. He would train in Jianghu for the time being and use the Jianghu path to polish himself and increase his cultivation strength. At the same time, he would use the talent of his eyes to secretly study the martial arts of the world. He would master them and walk his own path of peerless.
When his cultivation base reached a great success and he had the strength to protect himself and even suppress the world, he would return with glory. This was the most rational choice for Zhu Houzhao.
"Can you give me an explanation?" Emperor Zhu Youtang asked," Although the forces in the capital are surging, they are still relatively balanced. You, the Crown Prince, are my only heir. Who would dare to have designs on you?”
Zhu Houzhao sighed softly." Father, you know very well that the power of a peerless expert is too strong. It is far beyond the shackles of the secular world. It is not something that the imperial power can manipulate." The various factions in the royal court that have peerless experts have actually slowly escaped your control, haven't they?”
A peerless expert was like his name. His strength alone was enough to suppress the world. Any force with a peerless expert was enough to intimidate the heroes and look down on the world. Even emperors would treat peerless experts with courtesy and not want to offend them easily.
Nominally, the imperial court had five peerless experts to suppress the world. However, among these five experts, perhaps only Ancestor Sunflower was 100% loyal to Zhu Youtang because he had followed Zhu Youtang since he was young and served him for decades.
Other than that, Zhuge Zhengwo attached great importance to morality and justice, and he protected the country. Perhaps he was also a staunch loyal minister, but if Zhu Youtang ordered him to do something that violated morality, Zhuge Zhengwo would most likely refuse, or he would disobey.
As for the other factions, Cao Zhengchun and Cai Jing, who had recruited the Thirteen Yuan Limits, were all planning to use the Emperor to command the vassals. They might seem loyal and obedient, but without Zhuge Zhengwo and Zhu Mianli, they would definitely end up like Cao Cao and Ao Bai.
The last and the strongest was the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa. Zhu Budian was the number one expert of the Ming Empire and the emperor's younger brother. He seemed to be extremely loyal, but the authority of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa was already independent of the imperial power. Even the Crown Prince did not have the authority to access the archives of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa, and the secret files about the lives of the people of the martial arts world and the officials of the court in the archives were extremely powerful.
These four forces had already revealed their unbreakable power. Even the Emperor couldn't control them completely. Zhu Houzhao didn't believe that his father couldn't tell.
Emperor Zhu Youtang sighed and said,""Zhao 'er, you've finally grown up. Forget it, there are no outsiders here. You and I will have a good talk about the situation in the capital!”
"Actually, Imperial Father, you don't have to worry. I already understand the situation in the capital." Zhu Houzhao smiled.”
"Oh?" The Emperor didn't mind and chuckled. The situation in the capital is complicated, even zhen has a headache. Since Zhao 'er is so confident, tell me.”
Zhu Houzhao looked at Forefather Sunflower and smiled."Actually, Imperial Father has made the problem complicated.”
"Your son feels that it isn't that complicated to entangle forces.”Zhu Houzhao's eyes were burning." Didn't Imperial Father notice? The current Da Ming was already faintly divided into four streams of Qi.”
"Our imperial family has two peerless experts, the ancestor and the imperial uncle." Zhu Bujue had not shown his fangs yet. As his nephew, Zhu Houzhao could not speak ill of Zhu Bujue in front of the Emperor. However, he did not hide anything from the other forces." Divine Marquis Zhuge established the Divine Constabulary as a mechanism to enforce the law. Although he was not keen on power, he was not directly related to his father and could not be 100% loyal. To put it bluntly, the Divine Constabulary was loyal to the country, not to his father and his future sons. As for Cai Xianghe and Cao Gonggong, they were in charge of the courtiers and the East Chamber respectively. Their power was overwhelming the government and the people. Most of the ministers in the court were attached to them. It could be said that their power was high and shocked the monarch. They were ambitious.”
"Zhuge Zhengwo, Prime Minister Cai's subordinates, Primordial Thirteen Limits, and Eunuch Cao, on the surface, are loyal to Imperial Father, but it is very difficult to truly subdue them. Because they were all peerless experts, they entered the imperial court for power or ambition. However, it was impossible for them to be 100% loyal.”Zhu Houzhao said," After all, peerless experts are arrogant beyond compare. No one can stop them. Only those who are stronger than them can subdue peerless experts.”
"You want to be this person?" The Emperor's gaze was burning as he stared at Zhu Houzhao and suddenly said.
"That's right." Zhu Houzhao nodded. Your son wants to be this person. If your son is the number one person in Great Ming, or even the number one person in the world, and can easily kill peerless experts, then who in the court would dare to disobey your son's will? In fact, at that time, what your son needs to consider is not to stabilize the situation in the country, but to conquer the Song Empire in the west and the Sui Empire in the north. He will unify the three countries and imitate the ancient Xuanyuan Clan to unify the entire human race.”
"And absolute power is the foundation of all this!”
The Emperor trembled when he heard the last sentence. He never knew that his only son had such a grand dream in his heart.
Unifying the three countries, what boldness. As expected of the descendants of the Zhu family.
