Shou Quan didn't quite understand what Zhu Di meant.
But soon, he understood, and it even made him a little scared.
Within the Han King's Residence.
It was already 11 o'clock, but the Han King's Mansion was still brightly lit.
Zhu Gaoxu was in the study, writing on a piece of paper.
However, he picked up the brush and stayed on the paper for a long time without moving.
Thick black ink dripped from the full tip of the pen onto the paper, leaving a large black dot.
Zhu Gaoxu frowned and put down his pen. He rolled the paper into a ball and threw it on the ground.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't pick up the pen again. He stared at the pile of waste paper, frowning slightly, and his expression was a little irritated.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the study.
"What is it?"
A servant's voice came from outside the door." Your Highness, Prince Zhao has sent someone over."”
Zhu Gaoxu's expression turned cold as he shouted,""Bring him in!"
"Yes."
After a while, the door of the study was knocked again. After Zhu Gaoxu gave his approval, a short man walked in.
"Your Highness, the King of Han."
Zhu Gaoxu's expression was tense." What's the matter?" he asked.”
The man lowered his voice as if he was afraid that the walls had ears.
"Prince Zhao sent me to inform you that the Fifth Imperial Sun has entered the palace to see His Majesty.”
"He just left. When he came out, his expression was a little serious.”
Zhu Gaoxu's expression suddenly became a little solemn.
After the man left, her mood became more and more frustrated.
Zhu Zhan Xin went to see his father so late at night, so he had to report the business tax.
He had just gone to the North Town Office tonight, and Zhu Zhanxin had entered the palace right after!
The bad feeling in Zhu Gaoxu's heart grew stronger and stronger.
He stood up and shouted,""Men! Enter the palace!"
Zhu Gaoxu rushed to the palace to see Zhu Di.
When Shou Quan heard the people outside come in to report, he finally understood why Zhu Di had said that!
However, he wished he didn't understand.
Shou Quan said to Zhu Di with some trepidation,"Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Han requests an audience."
Zhu Di's expression immediately turned cold.
Zhu Di was already in a bad mood tonight, and the pressure on him was very low.
This time, whoosh! His expression turned even uglier!
"Tell him not to meet!"
"Yes." Shou Quan walked out with a bitter face.
The Emperor could directly refuse, but he could not so stiffly tell the King of Han.
"Your Highness Han King, His Majesty is already going to rest.”
Zhu Gaoxu's expression instantly turned ugly.
It was still bright inside. Zhu Di had not slept yet. Moreover, he had just seen Zhu Zhanxin not long ago, but now he was unwilling to see him.
In an instant, Zhu Gaoxu seemed to understand something.
Shou Quan looked at Zhu Gaoxu's expression and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The expressions of this father and son were really ugly.
Zhu Di was unwilling to see him, so Zhu Gaoxu naturally had no choice but to leave.
When they returned to the palace, the butler saw that Zhu Gaoxu had returned. He was a little surprised and said,""Your Highness? Why are you back so soon?"
Zhu Gaoxu's face darkened and he ignored her.
The next day.
Early in the morning.
Zhu Gaoxu rushed to the palace again.
The morning court session had not started yet.
The morning court session of the Ming Dynasty began at dawn, and Zhu Gaoxu arrived at the palace at dawn.
However, when Zhu Gaoxu rushed over and asked to see Zhu Di again.
Shou Quan groaned in his heart. Why was this Han King still unyielding?
"Your Highness, this…"
Before Shou Quan could finish speaking, Zhu Gaoxu interrupted him.
"The morning court session will be held soon. Even if Imperial Father hasn't woken up yet, it will be soon. This Prince can wait here.”
Zhu Gaoxu's tone wasn't good. Yesterday, he asked to see Zhu Di, but Zhu Di didn't see him, which made him realize the seriousness of the matter.
She had been anxious the entire night and had not slept much. Her eyes were still a little blue, so she was in a bad mood.
This way, his tone was naturally a little rushed, and he even directly interrupted Shou Quan's words.
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Shou Quan's eyes. He had clearly done something wrong, but now he was venting his anger on him.
Because they had served Zhu Di for many years, many people were extremely respectful to Shou Quan.
Needless to say, some of the high-ranking officials and nobles would give him some face.
Now that the King of Han had said this, Shou Quan naturally felt uncomfortable and immediately said,""Your Highness, His Majesty is no longer in the palace.”
Zhu Gaoxu was shocked. Because he was too anxious, when he heard this, he blurted out,"The morning court session will be held in a while. How can Imperial Father not be here?!”
Zhu Gaoxu knew that it was inappropriate to ask such a question.
Although Shou Quan was only a eunuch, he had been by his father's side for many years and was trusted by his father. He was not to be offended.
But who was Zhu Gaoxu?
He had been a descendant of the royal family since he was young, and he was loved by Zhu Di. He was full of pride. Zhu Gaoxu would never lower his face to face a eunuch.
Therefore, after knowing that he had said something inappropriate, Zhu Gaoxu's face stiffened and he did not speak.
Shou Quan's expression became even paler as he said bluntly,"Your Highness Han King, this old servant naturally wouldn't dare to lie to Your Highness. Your Majesty left the palace early to go to the Monk Record Temple.”
"What about the morning court session?"
"All matters in the court have been handed over to His Highness the Crown Prince to handle.”
Hearing this.
Zhu Gaoxu's expression immediately dimmed, and his entire person seemed lonely.
His father had actually handed over all the affairs of the court to Zhu Gaochi?
Zhu Gaoxu found it hard to believe.
Some time ago, the two of them had quarreled with each other. Even in the imperial court, it was Zhu Gaochi who led a group of officials to obstruct Zhu Di from going out.
At that time, Zhu Di did not have a good expression when he saw Zhu Gaochi. The two of them quarreled as soon as they met.
Now that the Northern Expedition has not been resolved, why would Father let Zhu Gaochi manage the country?
Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu's expression became even uglier.
He was basically certain that Zhu Di knew something.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have handed everything over to Zhu Gaochi and refused to see him!
At this moment.
A voice suddenly rang out.
"Second brother? What are you doing here?"
Zhu Gaochi walked towards Zhu Gaoxu.
He had just found out that Zhu Di had actually asked Zhu Gaochi to supervise the country, and his mood had become even more unhappy. Now that he saw Zhu Gaochi, he did not have a good expression either.
"Boss, if you can come, why can't I?”
"That's not what I meant," Zhu Gaochi said with a smile."I'm just a little curious. Father isn't here. Why is Second Brother here?"”
"It has nothing to do with you, so you don't have to care.”
He was actually blaming Zhu Gaochi for being a busybody.
Zhu Gaochi sighed and didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Shou Quan could not help but sigh in his heart. As expected, the Crown Prince's temperament was better.
Because Zhu Di was not present, Zhu Gaochi presided over the morning court session.
Throughout the morning court, Zhu Gaoxu's face was dark, as if someone owed him millions of taels.
Zhu Gaosui's expression wasn't too good either. Last night, Zhu Gaoxu went to see Zhu Di, but Zhu Di didn't meet him. Zhu Gaosui also knew about it, so he naturally noticed something strange.
I've just come down from morning court.
Just as Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were about to leave.
Unexpectedly, a guard suddenly walked to Zhu Gaochi and whispered a few words.
