The atmosphere in the imperial court became more and more solemn. Just when everyone thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to execute this official…
Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang said,
"You can leave now. Since you are loyal to the country, I won't punish you today.”
The moment Zhu Yuanzhang said this, the hearts of all the officials in the court froze.
Why was His Majesty so easy to talk to today?
This person had offended the heavens so much, yet the Emperor did not punish him?
Even the minister himself was confused. When he stood out, he was already prepared to die.
He didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang to lift it up high and then gently land it.
For a moment, this sense of loss made people feel a little uncomfortable.
After a moment, the ministers came back to their senses.
He couldn't help but feel excited. He thought that the Emperor had been stunned by his words.
He began to formally consider making Zhu Yunwen the emperor's grandson.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunwen and the other civil officials couldn't help but feel excited.
In the end, the world still needs us civil officials to govern it well.
Even a powerful emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang, now that he was old and frail, had to compromise with them.
Not to mention Zhu Yunwen, who was deeply influenced by Confucianism in the future, would be at their mercy.
Everyone began to speak to Zhu Yuanzhang, wanting to use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The position of Grand Sun would be completely determined.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang was not moved by these people's words. He did not mention the matter of making a grandson, nor did he say who he wanted to make the crown prince.
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang was so good-tempered today was because he was prepared to stall for time.
He would make these clowns jump out one by one. When the time came, he would catch them all in one fell swoop!
On the other hand, Zhu Yuanzhang was also prepared to ask his grandson outside about the future direction of Ming Dynasty before making a formal decision.
After all, from the beginning of the court until now, these civil officials and Zhu Yunwen's thoughts and actions were exactly the same as what Zhu Gaoye said.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang remembered that he had asked about the method of killing saints yesterday, but he did not get an answer.
He had agreed to meet Zhu Gaoye today and ask him to tell him about the Saint Slaying Technique.
At that time, wouldn't the problem of these pedantic scholars be solved?
Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but slap his thigh. It was too late for regret. Why did he have to drag this out with these people for so long?
After the court session, he had to ask Zhu Gaoye about this Saint-slaying technique.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not expect that his actions would cause a misunderstanding among the civil and military officials.
He thought that Emperor Hongwu had changed his mind and finally made a decision after being persuaded by the officials.
Hence, he was secretly delighted.
"Your Majesty, have you already thought about it?"
This sentence also pulled Zhu Yuanzhang back to reality. He did not expect these people to still be so aggressive.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly,"
"The matter of the unification concerns the future of the Great Ming Empire.”
"We can't make a decision so rashly. Let's think about it for a while before making a decision!”
As soon as these words were said, the entire court was in an uproar. They had originally thought that today was the day the country's system was settled, but they did not expect Zhu Yuanzhang to pull such a trick again.
Zhu Yunwen, who was standing in front of the ministers, had a dark expression on her face.
He had originally thought that he would be able to confirm that he was the imperial grandson today, and that he was only going through the motions.
This throne originally belonged to his father, Zhu Biao.
His father had passed away, so it was only right that his son should take over his father's business. The position of the imperial grandson should fall on his head.
He didn't expect that Imperial Grandfather didn't think so, and the meaning behind his words was,
He even wanted to choose one of his uncles to be the crown prince!
How could Zhu Yunwen tolerate this?
At the thought of this, Zhu Yunwen wished she could kill her uncles right now and let Zhu Yuanzhang completely stop thinking about this.
"Don't worry, after I ascend the throne, I will definitely treat these uncles well!”
Zhu Yunwen thought to herself.
When the civil officials heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, they immediately realized that things were not looking good.
It seemed like His Majesty the Emperor was really going to change his mind!
Things that were originally in the bag were suddenly about to change, causing everyone to panic.
He quickly stood up and prepared to continue persuading Zhu Yuanzhang to dispel this idea and quickly make Zhu Yunwen the emperor's grandson.
Who knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would not give them this chance again. Instead, before these people could speak, he said,
"Alright, alright. This group of people is making so much noise that I'm about to faint.”
"Retreat, retreat!"
After saying that, he stood up from the dragon throne and walked towards the rear palace.
Only the civil and military officials looked at each other.
Seeing this, the chief eunuch hurriedly shouted,
"His Majesty has decreed that we withdraw from court!"
After saying that, he quickly chased after Zhu Yuanzhang.
All the officials looked at each other. Before they could react to what had happened, the Emperor had already disappeared without a trace.
Everyone just left resentfully.
Only Zhu Yunwen stood there, staring at the throne.
After a long time, a civil official came over and said to Zhu Yunwen,
"Your Highness, it's time to leave the palace!”
Zhu Yunwen was unmoved, still staring at the throne.
Seeing this, the civil official ignored etiquette and pulled Zhu Yunwen out of the hall,
"His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson, has lost his composure. This will only make His Majesty even more disappointed in you.”
Zhu Yunwen suddenly woke up and realized that she had lost her composure. She quickly asked,
"Thank you for your reminder, Master. I lost my composure!”
The civil official nodded and encouraged Zhu Yunwen,
"It's still too early to say who will win in the end. There's no need for Your Highness Zhangsun to be like this.”
Zhu Yunwen looked at him gratefully,
"Master is right. I already know my mistake!”
Then Zhu Yunwen and the civil minister left the palace together.
On the other side, Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly returned to the harem to change his clothes after the court session.
As he changed, he instructed the people beside him,
"Go and call Zhu Di into the palace. Hurry!”
After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, the palace servants quickly left the palace and ran towards the residence of King Yan.
Soon, they arrived at the King Yan's residence. After receiving the news, Zhu Di did not dare to be negligent.
After hurriedly changing into casual clothes, he followed the person into the palace.
When he arrived in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, he was greeted with a barrage of curses from Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Didn't I tell you long ago to hurry over after the court session today?”
"You still want to find Zhu Gaoye? What's wrong with you?”
"I'm waiting for my son. It's really against the heavens!”
