The Forbidden City in Nanjing, Fengtian Hall.
When Zhu Rong jogged all the way here, he was surprised to find that there was another person kneeling in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute besides Huang Zicheng, who looked like a bullied little wife.
Liu Bowen, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was sincere.
However, after thinking about it, he suddenly realized that ever since Liu Bowen helped the old man seize the world, he wanted to live in seclusion in Yamada and not care about the world.
For this reason, although he was an official in the court, Liu Bowen had always been careful, not seeking merit but seeking no fault.
Now, Huang Zicheng was a member of the Zhedong Group. He had been beaten up by Zhu Xi and had come to Zhu Yuanzhang to report him.
After Liu Bowen heard this, he naturally rushed over without stopping to be a peacemaker, hoping that the big issue would be reduced to a small one and the small matter would be resolved.
After all, no matter how muddle-headed Zhu was, he was still Zhu Yuanzhang's biological son. So what if Huang Zicheng refused to let him go?
Because of this, under Liu Bowen's comforting words, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger had almost dissipated.
But at this moment, as Zhu Rong arrived at the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his second son's behavior and the veins on his forehead bulged.
"Bastard!"
"You still have the face to come?"
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and looked around. He picked up a pile of memorials from the dragon table and threw them at Zhu Rong.
With a series of whooshing sounds, the memorials fell to the ground without exception because Zhu Rong had dodged them.
The key was that if he wanted to avoid it, then so be it. Zhu Rong even raised his head and smiled at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Dad, my accuracy has been bad recently!”
"You…"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes almost popped out of his head. His large hand once again grabbed the object on the Dragon Book Case and was about to smash it at Zhu Rong. However, the eunuch Chen Hong and Liu Bowen's face turned pale. They quickly waved their hands and said,
"Emperor, you can't, that's the Great Ming Jade Seal!”
"Is that so?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he didn't have time to look carefully. After Liu Bowen and Chen Hong reminded him, he realized that he was really holding the jade seal.
His old face turned red, and he carefully put down the jade seal. He pointed at Zhu Rong and said through gritted teeth,"
"You unfilial son, we've been so angry that we've become muddled!”
Zhu Rong was busy checking the system and didn't hear Zhu Yuanzhang's words. When he saw that 100 Emperor's Fury points had been transferred to his account, the corners of his mouth curled up. He looked up at Zhu Yuanzhang and said,
"What? Father, what did you say?"
"You…"
Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that his entire body was trembling. His heart was racing, and he couldn't help but reach out to cover his chest.
Eunuch Chen Hong saw this and quickly stepped forward."
"Emperor, why don't we call the imperial physician over to wait here?”
"No need, we can still hold on.”
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and forcefully suppressed his anger. He took a deep breath and felt a little better. Then he pointed at Huang Zicheng and said to Zhu Rong,
"Alright, Second Brother, since you're here, tell me.”
"Why did you hit Minister Huang for no reason?”
Zhu Rong raised his eyebrows. Although it was for no reason, he had to think of a reason.
He needed 10,000 Emperor's Wrath points to unlock the system, and he was still short of 700 points. He couldn't end it so quickly. He had to anger the old man for a while longer.
"This…Father, it's a long story.”
Zhu Xiong said as he thought.
"Then make it short."
Zhu Yuanzhang said expressionlessly.
"Alright, this is what happened."
Zhu Rong rubbed his chin and met the curious gazes of the people from the Hall of Heaven Tribute. He slowly said,
"This morning, when I was strolling in the imperial garden, I suddenly felt that my life was very boring.”
"They're all your sons, Father. Why am I the only one so free? Since the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers belong to our Zhu family, as a descendant of the Zhu family, I naturally have to contribute a little.”
"As the Crown Prince, Eldest Brother helped Father handle the court affairs. Although Third Brother was almost there, he also actively helped you with things. There's no need to mention Fourth Brother.”
"Therefore, I have to work hard!”
The moment Zhu Rong said this, the eyes of those who didn't know, such as Liu Bowen and Chen Hong, lit up with joy.
However, the only person who knew about it, Zhu Yuanzhang, did not want to bother with Zhu Rong at all. He looked at him and said,
"Didn't we tell you to make it short?”
"Don't worry, we'll get to the main topic soon.”
Zhu Rong waved his hand and continued to speak righteously,
"I, who decided to work hard, began to think hard. How can I help you share some of the burden?”
"But after thinking about it, I realized that the problem was with myself. It was because I didn't study hard and didn't have much talent, so I went to the East Palace to talk to Huang Zicheng about my studies.”
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't stand it anymore and immediately stretched out his hand."
"Wait a minute, isn't Huang Zicheng Yun Wen's teacher? Why are you learning from him? Yun Wen is only five years old now!"
"If you really want to study, you can look for Song Lian and Lu Chang. If you really can't, you can also look for Bowen!”
Zhu Rong smiled awkwardly and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang,"
"Father, isn't this son afraid that he won't be able to keep up with the progress? Five years old is enough. I'm afraid I won't understand if you're a little older.”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked frustrated. He was speechless.
Huang Zicheng, who was standing at the side, frowned. There was a hidden meaning in His Highness the King of Qin's words. What did he mean? Am I only fit to teach a five-year-old child?
However, under Liu Bowen's gaze, Huang Zicheng did not dare to say anything and could only keep his mouth shut.
Zhu Yuanzhang also sighed faintly and raised his hand towards Zhu Rong.
"Sigh, continue."
"Hey, where was I?”
Zhu Rong was confused.
Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and stared at Zhu Rong."
"Go to the Eastern Palace to find Huang Zicheng."
"Yes, yes, yes. Thank you for your reminder, Father."
Zhu Rong cupped his hands at Zhu Yuanzhang and said,"
"Didn't I go to the Eastern Palace?"
"But before I could look for Huang Zicheng, I saw Huang Zicheng teaching Yun Wen her homework. The fire in my heart burned. I immediately reached out my hand and touched his big face…"
"Hey, wait a minute."
Before Zhu Rong could finish his sentence, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression froze. For a moment, he thought that he had missed something.
"What did you just say? Seeing Huang Zicheng teaching Yun Wen homework, the fire in his heart rose?”
"Yes, I am!"
Zhu Rong nodded quickly. He looked at the crowd and said,
"Is there a problem?"
"Of course there's a problem!"
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly stood up from his dragon throne and pointed the jade Ruyi in his hand at Zhu Xi. If he wasn't afraid of shattering it, he would have thrown it over.
"Minister Huang is the study companion of the Eastern Palace, it's only right for her to teach Yun Wen.”
"This…Father, you don't know.”
Zhu Rong crossed his arms and looked at Huang Zicheng coldly.
"Huang Zicheng looks honest on the surface, but he's actually full of bad ideas. Don't let him teach Yun Wen. As the saying goes, three years old makes eighty years old. Yun Wen is already five years old now.”
When Huang Zicheng heard this, his heart instantly sank, but his face was filled with grievance. He hurriedly cupped his hands towards Zhu Yuanzhang and said,
"Your Majesty is wise. What His Highness the King of Qin said is not true at all. I've always been loyal to you!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed. After taking a deep look at Huang Zicheng, he tilted his head to look at Zhu Rong and said,
"Do you have any evidence for your words?”
"No, I haven't."
Zhu Rong shook his head. The court was so complicated, it was best not to get involved.
Ever since he was bound to this damned system, he had already made up his mind. Anyway, he would be able to return to Fan Xi'an soon.
He could unlock the factory now, build some gadgets, and bring them to Xi'an. He could expand his business territory and live a luxurious life!
In any case, based on Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude towards him, the throne was already impossible. In that case, he could only choose to be a carefree prince.
"No?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression darkened again, but it was much better than before because he was already used to it.
In any case, every time he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he would be angered more than ten times. As time passed, it was understandable that Zhu Yuanzhang's temper became worse.
"Unfilial son, you slandered the officials of the court without any evidence. Even if you are our son, we can't tolerate it!”
"Erhu!"
Zhu Yuanzhang shouted angrily.
"Your humble servant is here!"
Zhao Erhu once again ran in from outside the Hall of Heaven Tribute. He glanced at Zhu Rong and could not help but shake his head.
When Liu Bowen saw this, he sighed in his heart, but he still cupped his hands towards Zhu Yuanzhang and said,
"Your Majesty, please calm down. His Highness the King of Qin is young and impetuous. He has not had much contact with Lord Huang.”
"In any case, Lord Huang didn't suffer much injury.”
The corner of Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes trembled slightly. He looked at Zhu Rong and hesitated for a moment before saying ruthlessly,
"No, this unfilial son is so unfilial. He must be severely punished!”
"Xiao Hu, throw him into the imperial prison and lock him up for a few months first.”
Zhu Rong was relieved. The old man was indeed protective of his son. In the past six months, he had been punished with confinement every time he committed a crime.
Because of this, the Ministry of Justice's imperial prison had specially reserved a room for Zhu He, so much so that Zhu He had developed feelings for him during this period of time.
"Is it still the same room, Father?"
Zhu Xiong said with a smile.
"I don't mind if you want to stay in the death row!”
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhu Rong and waved his hand."
"What are you waiting for? Get lost!"
"Alright."
Zhu Rong nodded quickly. The moment he turned around, his eyes were filled with anticipation for the future.
After half a year of " loving father and filial son ", Zhu Rong finally had enough of the 10,000 points of Emperor's Fury required to unlock the system!
