Inside the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, Liu Bowen looked at Zhu Rong's back as he left and sighed faintly,"
"Sigh, Your Majesty, actually…"
"Alright Bowen, I've already made up my mind. Don't try to persuade me anymore.”
Before Liu Bowen could finish speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand.
Seeing this, Liu Bowen could only cup his hands and say,"
"Yes, sir!"
Seeing this, Huang Zicheng's lips curled into a cold smile. At this moment, he no longer had so many complaints about Zhu Rong.
After all, Zhu Rong had already been punished. Even if it was just confinement, Huang Zicheng was not stupid.
After all, he was his son. It was not easy for the emperor to do this.
On the contrary, Liu Bowen made Huang Zicheng jealous. He tried every means to absolve Zhu Rong and treated him as if he was nothing. How could such a person become the head of their Zhedong Group?
"That should be the case. Is Minister Huang's face okay?”
The corner of Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes trembled as he looked at Huang Zicheng with a smile.
"It's fine, it's fine. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty.”
Huang Zicheng waved his hand in a flattered manner.
When Liu Bowen saw this, his heart sank.
After assisting Zhu Yuanzhang for so many years, no one in the court understood Zhu Yuanzhang better than Liu Bowen except Li Shanchang.
Without any hesitation, Liu Bowen hurriedly cupped his hands towards Zhu Yuanzhang and said,"
"Your Majesty, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave.”
"Alright."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.
Liu Bowen cupped his hands at Zhu Yuanzhang again and turned to leave the Hall of Heaven's Tribute.
Huang Zicheng watched Liu Bowen leave and was about to sneer when Zhu Yuanzhang's voice sounded again,"
"Is there anything else, Minister Huang?"
"Ah?"
Huang Zicheng was stunned. He raised his head and met Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze. His forehead was instantly covered in cold sweat. He hurriedly cupped his hands and said,
"I will take my leave."
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang nod slightly, Huang Zicheng hurriedly turned around and left, not daring to stay any longer.
When the Hall of Heaven's Tribute regained its peace, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes immediately flashed with a cold light.
"Chen Hong, closely monitor Huang Zicheng and report everything he said to me while teaching Yun Wen.”
"This old servant obeys."
Eunuch Chen Hong quickly cupped his hands.
…………
"Hmm?"
Outside the Hall of Heaven's Tribute, Liu Bowen stopped in his tracks. He looked at Zhu Xi who was waving at him not far away and could not help but raise his eyebrows.
"Your Highness, are you waiting for me?"
Liu Bowen quickly walked forward and said.
"Hehe…"
Zhu Rong was originally squatting on the ground. When he saw Liu Bowen come forward, he stood up and said to Liu Bowen,"
"In this half a year, every time I made Father angry, Mister Bowen would speak up for this Prince. Adding this time, I don't know how many favors I owe Mister Bowen.”
"This confinement, this king won't be able to see Mister Bowen for at least a few months. This debt of gratitude has to be repaid, so I specially waited here.”
Liu Bowen frowned and took a deep look at Zhao Erhu, who was beside Zhu Rong. It was obvious that he was very concerned.
Zhu Xi noticed Liu Bowen's nervousness and directly reached out to put his arm around Zhao Erhu's shoulder."
"Haha…Mister Bowen, you don't have to care. Although Brother Er Hu is the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, we are both open and frank. What is there to be afraid of?”
Liu Bowen shook his head helplessly and cupped his hands at Zhu Rong."
"Your Highness the King of Qin's words are reasonable, but speaking of human relations is a bit too heavy. As a subject, Bowen should share the burden for Your Majesty. All his actions are to protect the father-son relationship between Your Majesty and Your Highness.”
"So in this humble subject's opinion, rather than returning Bowen's favor, it would be better for Your Highness to think more about His Majesty.”
"The heavy burden of the world is on His Majesty's shoulders. He is already very tired. I hope that His Highness the King of Qin will not cause trouble for no reason in the future.”
The corner of Zhu Rong's mouth curled up, but he did not comment on it. Instead, he took a step forward and looked at Liu Bowen.
"This king will remember your words, but I hope you won't forget what this king is going to say next.”
"The Huaixi gang sees you as a thorn in their side, a thorn in their flesh. They keep an eye on you all day long, and they can't wait to get rid of you. However, you still have a stubborn personality, and your situation is already extremely difficult.”
"Now, because of this king, Sir did not protect Huang Zicheng, which has already made this person jealous. If this king's guess is right, the Zhedong Group is probably very dissatisfied with Sir.”
"There's a wolf in front and a tiger behind. Teacher, you have to be careful!”
After saying that, Zhu Rong's face turned solemn, which was rare. He cupped his hands at Liu Bowen and grinned. He returned to his usual carefree appearance and swaggered away.
Liu Bowen stood rooted to the ground, still unable to recover from Zhu Rong's words.
Zhao Erhu, who was at the side, saw Zhu Xi leave and hurriedly cupped his hands to bid farewell to Liu Bowen. However, just as he was about to turn around, a large hand grabbed his arm. It was Liu Bowen.
"Uncle Sincerity, what are you doing?"
Zhao Erhu looked at Liu Bowen in confusion.
Liu Bowen did not notice it at all. Looking at Zhu Xiong's back, his eyes gradually widened,"
"Commander Zhao, help me take a look. The person who spoke to me just now, is it His Highness the King of Qin?”
"Of course!"
Zhao Erhu nodded without hesitation. Seeing that Liu Bowen was still shocked, he couldn't help but ask worriedly,
"Uncle Sincerity, what's wrong? Uncomfortable? Or was he seeing things? Why don't I report back to the emperor and get the imperial doctor to take a look at you?”
"No need, no need."
Liu Bowen hurriedly waved his hand and declined Zhao Erhu's good intentions. Looking at Zhu Xiong who was far away, his eyes became brighter and brighter.
Everyone in and out of the court said that the Emperor had indulged his son excessively and that His Highness the King of Qin had committed all kinds of evil. However, the words just now were definitely not words that a demon king could say!
Even he had not analyzed the situation so clearly. How could the King of Qin, who had always only cared about eating, drinking, and having fun…
Could it be that even he was wrong?
On the outside, it was rotten, but on the inside, it was golden!
