Zhu Zhanji bowed and said,"Grandson suspects that these people are either lurking in the capital all year round, waiting for an opportunity to make a move, or they are raised by some big shot in our court to specifically target grandfather."
The person with a murderous look on his face was his second uncle, the Han King Zhu Gaoxu. He looked at Zhu Zhanji meaningfully and said," Is it possible that it was an inside job? After all, if something happened to His Majesty, who would benefit?”
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi, who was trembling on the ground, with a strange expression and said," Crown Prince, do you want to explain to me what Second Brother meant just now?”
Zhu Gaochi turned pale with fright. He looked at Zhu Di with a pale face and said," Father, I, it wasn't me. I, how could I harm you?"
Zhu Zhanji cupped his hands and said," Grandpa, how could my father do such a thing? Although my father has been in charge of the country all year round, my father doesn't have any soldiers. Moreover, look at my father. Can he have such thoughts?”
Zhu Gaoxu looked at Zhu Zhanji anxiously and said," What do you mean?”
Zhu Zhanji bowed respectfully to Zhu Gaochi," Second Uncle, I just think that according to what you said, my father can't be the final beneficiary. After all, if my father did something disobedient, how could he resist your and Third Uncle's army?"
Then, he turned around and bowed to Zhu Di respectfully, saying,"Grandpa, please understand."
Zhu Di looked meaningfully at Zhu Zhanji and shook his head without saying anything. The scene instantly quieted down.
From the corner of his eye, Zhu Zhanji looked at his second uncle, who was sweating profusely, and a faint smile hung on his lips.
Since Zhu Gaoxu had created this Jingnan orphan, he wanted to obtain military power from his father. Zhu Zhanji directly blocked this opening.
After all, Zhu Di had rebelled and obtained the throne. Although he had not obtained the throne properly, he hoped that his descendants would not kill each other.
Naturally, he also attached great importance to military power, so Zhu Zhanji's words just hit Zhu Di's sore spot.
Zhu Gaoxu secretly glanced at Zhu Zhanji. This was a very awkward time for him. If he jumped out, the old man would be very unhappy and would be easily dealt with.
But if he didn't come out, wouldn't his painstaking plan to obtain military power be in vain? The old man had already reached the age where he knew his destiny.
Moreover, he doted on Zhu Zhanji more and more. Although he had many students and old friends in the army, he did not have any military power in the capital. If the old man died one day, what could he use to compete with the Crown Prince?
Zhu Gaoxu carefully looked at Zhu Di, gritted his teeth, and said," Your Majesty, I think they must have a nest in the city. If they escape from the capital this time, I don't know when they will come out again."”
"After all, there is no reason to guard against thieves every night. Your son requests for the five city military divisions to search for the rebels!”
Zhu Di rubbed his chin and glanced at Zhu Gaoxu. This time, it was obviously a bit difficult. The problem between the second and the eldest was also his heart disease, and what the second brother said made sense. If he refused, it would indirectly mean that he listened to the words of the little brat. The second brother would definitely think too much when he went back.
Zhu Di turned around and glared at Zhu Zhanji. He said helplessly," Alright, stop arguing. What Second Brother said makes sense, but you just came back from the war. You should go back and have a good rest."
"Rascal!"
Zhu Zhanji was stunned for a moment and said,"My grandson is here."
"Do you, the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, eat for free? This time, I'll leave the whole city's search and capture of the rebels to you. Grandpa will bestow you with the token of 'Regal Zhen'."
Zhu Zhanji was still very happy in his heart, but he still looked at Zhu Di with an aggrieved expression and shouted,"Grandpa, I..."
Zhu Di laughed and scolded," You little brat, you caused this mess. Go clean up your own mess. Alright, that's it. Let's go."
Zhu Di turned around and returned to the back hall, leaving the five sons of the Zhu family looking at each other.
Han Wang looked at Zhu Zhanji with a meaningful look and said," Nephew, you can't say that just now. We are a family. How could Second Uncle do such a thing?"”
The Zhao King Zhu Gaosui also stood up and helped the Crown Prince up. He put his arm around the Crown Prince's shoulder and said gently," That's right, we're blood brothers. Boss, don't you think so?"
Then, the three brothers walked out of the hall. The three of them acted as if they were close to each other. After walking a hundred steps, Zhu Gaoxu turned around and glanced at the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
The two of them tacitly let go of the Crown Prince.
Zhu Gaochi chuckled as he looked at the two of them and said,"I say, brothers, we still have to be careful. It won't be good if the old man sees us."
Zhu Gaosui looked at Zhu Gaochi with disdain and said," I say, big brother, don't scare us. We've already walked so far. Do you think the old man can still see us?”
Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said," That's right. Do you think the old man has clairvoyance?”
