"Protector beast!"
Seeing the arrow getting closer and closer to Zhu Di, Zhu Gaoxu's flaw was about to crack.。
At this moment.
If Zhu Di really died because of the assassination, then the Crown Prince would naturally succeed the throne.
At that time, his dream of becoming an emperor would finally be awakened!
"Imperial Father, be careful!"
There was another loud cry.
His obsession with the throne made Zhu Gaoxu plan to block the arrow with his own body.
He immediately flew out.
However, no matter how fast Zhu Gaoxu was, how could he be faster than an arrow?
Under everyone's watchful eyes.
The arrow passed through Zhu Gaoxu's eyes and aimed straight at Zhu Di's forehead!
In the next second.
At the critical moment, the instinct that he had developed on the battlefield made Zhu Di quickly turn to the side.
The arrow lost its target and finally shot into the wall behind it.
Before everyone could relax.
The assassin reacted quickly and shot another arrow.
This time, Zhu Di couldn't hide.
Everyone present could only watch as the arrow pierced into his chest!
"Your Majesty!"
"Father!"
"Grandpa!"
Everyone could not help but shout.
Seeing this, the assassin felt that the assassination had succeeded, so he immediately crushed the red pill in his mouth and died instantly!
"Quickly summon the Imperial Physician!"
When he came to Zhu Di's side, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi shouted while panting.
"No worries." Zhu Di waved his hand.
After he stood up, he unbuttoned his shirt and revealed a golden soft armor.
The arrow had only injured his skin, but it was not fatal.
After a brief moment of shock, everyone rejoiced.
Although he did not know why Zhu Di was wearing soft armor, it was fortunate that the assassination did not succeed.
"You scared me to death!" Zhu Gaochi sat on the ground and said with lingering fear.
Zhu Gaoxu also heaved a sigh of relief.
"What are you all standing there for?"
Zhu Di looked at his three sons." Do you have nothing to do?”
"Yes! Yes, yes! Capture him!" Zhu Gaosui was the first to react.
The banquet ended in this way.
Zhu Di returned to the palace with Zheng He.
After the imperial physician left, Zheng He asked again,"Did Your Majesty expect this?"”
Zhu Di didn't reply. He just looked at the soft armor on his body in a daze.
Zhu Le had predicted this matter once again.
If not for Zhu Le, he would have been doomed!
"An orphan of Jingnan?" Zhu Di narrowed his eyes.
Zhu Le had to analyze that the assassination this time should have been done by the radical faction among the orphans of Jingnan.
This was indeed very reasonable.
However, as the emperor, Zhu Di thought of other possibilities.
Could it be the Crown Prince? Or the King of Han?
One had to know.
If he died, the most direct beneficiary would be the Crown Prince!
Of course, the Han King was also a suspect.
He thought deeper.
If the Crown Prince was implicated in this matter, then the Han King would be the ultimate beneficiary.
Thinking of this, Zhu Di's gaze was extremely terrifying.
He thought of the Han King using his body to block the arrow and felt that it wasn't fake.
"San Bao, do you think the Crown Prince did this?”Zhu Di asked.
"This subordinate does not know." Zheng He replied cautiously.
Although he did not believe it in his heart and supported the Crown Prince's succession.
However, he was very clear.
If he spoke up for the Crown Prince now, it would only increase Zhu Di's suspicion.
……
……
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed.
The Jinyiwei could be seen everywhere.
Before the matter of the assassination was investigated, news spread from the palace.
Zhu Di imprisoned all the princelings and made the crown prince reflect on his mistakes in seclusion. At the same time, he made the King of Han supervise the country.
Such a situation made the officials and commoners think.
Heavens, it was probably going to change!
In the past few days, Zhu Di had never come to Zhu Le's house.
This made Zhu Le extremely worried, worried that something had happened to him.
"Could it be that Old Master Ma is a prince and was imprisoned by the emperor?”Sun Ruowei asked as she massaged Zhu Le's shoulders.
"That's indeed possible." Zhu Le nodded.
No matter what, he could only wait for the news and see what had happened.
"Now the Embroidered Uniform Guards are capturing people everywhere. It is said that they have captured many orphans of Jingnan.”Zhu Le spoke with deep meaning.
"So be it." Sun Ruowei's expression was indifferent and extremely normal.
Seeing Zhu Le's confusion, she sighed and explained," Most of the rational orphans of Jingnan have already left. The ones who are still in the city are those who are blinded by hatred and have become tools.”
Zhu Le understood.
Although they were both orphans of Jingnan, the people Sun Ruowei cared about were all rational people.
She had no other feelings for those radical people other than pity.
"Young Master, Young Master Ma is here with gifts.”While the two were talking, a maid came to report.
Ma Ji is here?
This made Zhu Le feel as if a huge rock had been lifted from his heart.
Since Ma Ji was fine, then even if Old Man Ma was in trouble, it wouldn't be too big.
"This kid is quite polite today. He actually knew to bring a gift.”Zhu Le praised again.
"Yes, this gift is very special.”The maid continued.
"Oh? How is it special?"
"Uh…this servant doesn't know how to explain it, but Young Master will know once he takes a look.”The maid said with a strange expression.
This made Zhu Le shake his head. He felt that he had to broaden the horizons of his servants.
Wasn't it just a gift? It was as if it was so rare!
"Let's go and see Markey!”
Zhu Le brought Sun Ruowei to the front courtyard.
Very quickly.
Zhu Le looked at the strange 'gift' in front of him and finally understood why the maid's expression was not right.
[Isn't this a gibbon?]
This was a young gibbon. Although its limbs and neck were not as good as an adult gibbon's, it could easily eat the leaves on the trees in the front yard.
At this moment, the gibbon was chewing on a leaf as it looked at Zhu Le curiously.
His expression seemed to be asking, Who are you?
"Brother Zhu, this is a gift from grandfather. It's called Qilin. Do you like it?”Zhu Zhanji said enviously.
"You call this a Qilin?" Zhu Le was puzzled.
"Isn't that so? This was an auspicious beast that Zheng He had brought back from the West.”Zhu Zhanji replied.
“……”
Zhu Le was speechless.
Soon, he remembered.
The ancients did indeed call the gibbon a unicorn.
This was because Zheng He had brought it back from Arabia, and the name of the gibbon was in Arabic, which was similar to the pronunciation of the kirin!
