King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

All of a sudden.

There was silence in the entire hall.

The two people's eyes met, staring at each other blankly.

After a long time, Zhu Gaoxu withdrew his gaze, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, shrugged noncommittally, smiled "haha", and said with a hint of ridicule in his words:

"Jin Shangshu, as for this?"

"I've been treated like a savage beast. Is this king that scary?"

"Is it necessary to be so nervous?"

Hearing this, Jin Zhong came back to his senses, his pupils shrank involuntarily, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

That's what I said.

Don’t you know who you are?

The relationship between the two people is inherently on fire and water.

Of course, although he was wary, he didn't have much fear of Zhu Gaoxu.

After all, he, Jin Zhong, has been able to stand in the court for so many years. Before the Jingnan Campaign, he followed Zhu Di to advise him. He was a true confidant of Zhu Di, even compared with Yao Guangxiao.

It occupies a much heavier weight in Zhu Di's heart.

And for so many years, he has never done anything unethical. He has no excuse for others to catch him, and he is not afraid.

Jin Zhong's move was mainly because he didn't know the purpose of the person in front of him, and it wasn't because he didn't know Zhu Gaoxu's character of not being stingy with sex.

Although he is not afraid of Zhu Gaoxu, who knows if he will do something disgusting with his lustful character.

This kind of thing was naturally not the result he wanted to see, so he couldn't help but be wary.

After a brief moment of silence, Jin Zhongpi cupped his hands with a smile and said:
"The prince is joking."

"I don't dare to have such an idea."

"Your Majesty's words are really embarrassing for me."

Seeing this situation and hearing such words, Zhu Gaoxu was not stupid. He could probably guess what Jin Zhong was thinking, and he didn't want to get too entangled with him on this issue. After all, he didn't come here today to talk to him. You are just talking nonsense, but you really have serious business to do.

After that, he looked around the hall with half-closed eyes. His eyes fell on a group of slaves walking back and forth not far away, as well as Jinda standing in the corner of the hall. He frowned and said:

"Jin Shangshu, this place doesn't seem to be a place for words."

"I don't know if that's possible."

Although the following words were not finished, Jin Zhong naturally understood after seeing Zhu Gaoxu's actions just now.

Logically speaking, Jin Zhong didn't want to talk to him. He wanted to avoid suspicion and let him talk here.

However, when he saw the slightest hint of solemnity revealed in Zhu Gaoxu's deep eyes, Jin Zhong also frowned subconsciously. A trace of curiosity arose in his heart, and the words of rejection that had already reached his lips , and took it back abruptly.

He pondered briefly for a moment, then turned his eyes to his son in the corner, waved to him, and said in a deep voice:
"Jinda."

"This courtyard is cleared. No one is allowed to approach without my order, including you."

"Do you understand?"

"what?"

After hearing this, Jinda, who had been standing aside watching the show, his eyes carefully looking back and forth between the two of them from time to time, was startled by the sudden order, and subconsciously exclaimed, looking at him with a look of disbelief. Go over and say:

"father"

"This, this, this"

"Ok?"

"Didn't you hear what I just said?"

Seeing his son who was stunned and hesitating, a hint of displeasure flashed across Jin Zhong's old face, his eyes stared straight at him, and there was a trace of anger in his words.

Feeling the eyes looking at him, Jinda opened his mouth several times to say something, but when he met his old father's cold eyes, he finally had to shut up and bow to the two of them honestly. He bowed and said:
"Yes."

"Son, let's do it now."

Immediately, Jinda turned around and strode out the door without any hesitation.

Not long after. Throughout the courtyard, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps, accompanied by bursts of scolding and exhortations.

After a while, there was no sound at all inside and outside the entire hall.

Seeing this, Jin Zhong turned to look at Zhu Gaoxu, who was leaning on the Taishi chair and drinking hot tea from time to time. He simply sorted out his thoughts and asked with a hint of curiosity in his words. :
"My lord."

"I have implemented your instructions. No one in the entire courtyard will enter and disturb me without my order."

"I wonder what the prince's orders are for being so solemn?"

"Please make it clear, Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu's eyes couldn't help but narrowed. His laughter and leisurely mood suddenly subsided, replaced by a solemn face, a gloomy, cold and terrifying face, and a hint of murderous intent in his words. , asked in a deep voice:

"Jin Shangshu!!"

"I would like to ask you a question, are you afraid of death?"

Feeling the coldness radiating from Zhu Gaoxu's body due to the sudden change, Jin Zhong's body was shaken when he was called for questioning. His old face instantly turned livid, and he couldn't help but smile in his heart.

What do you think King Han is going to say?
Dare you come and threaten him?
Stinky Qiuba, it’s Stinky Qiuba!

The character of a reckless man is simple-minded and well-developed limbs.

Emperor Yongle had just set off on the expedition, and he was eager to eradicate dissidents.

He simply doesn't know how to restrain himself at all, and he doesn't even have the most basic strategies and city plans.

Hehe. Fortunately, I had been worried and concerned about Zhu Gaoxu's transformation before, and regarded him as a threat.

Now it seems that everything is fine, the dog cannot change its habit of eating shit.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Zhu Gaoxu, his expression condensed unconsciously, and a hint of ridicule appeared at the corner of his slightly raised mouth:
"If you want your subjects to die, they will have to die."

"but."

"My lord, I have to remind you that now you are only responsible for supervising the country."

"He is not a true king yet. And the old minister has no fault at all."

"I don't know how Prince Han wants to take this old minister's life?"

"If the prince is really so capable and courageous to take the old minister's life regardless of the consequences, what's the point of the old minister giving it to the prince?"

"But has the prince really thought it through?"

"Do you dare to do something to me without any reason?"

"My lord, are you sure you can bear the price incurred during this period?"

"Hahahaha"

Say it.

Jin Zhong laughed loudly, put his hands behind his back and slowly closed his eyes, as if he was 'letting you do whatever you want'.

"hehe."

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu chuckled, waved his hand at him, and shook his head.

"Jin Shangshu is joking."

"Today, our king is neither here to kill you nor to threaten you, nor does he have any murderous intention towards you."

"only"

Having said this, he paused, then suddenly changed the topic, his voice became extremely low, and said:

"It's the matter that I want to discuss and explain to you. If you are not careful, you may fall into a catastrophe, die, or even be infamy for the ages."

"But if done well, it will benefit the country and the people, be famous for generations, and be praised by the world."

"The risks and benefits of this matter complement each other. I must ask clearly first. After all, everyone has his own ambitions."

"If Jin Shangshu is afraid of death, then I will pretend that I have never been here today."

"If you are not afraid, once you hear what I say next, you will have no room for retreat or maneuver. You can only move forward step by step, otherwise I will be the first to take your life."

"So, I hope Jin Shangshu will think clearly about this matter before answering my question." (End of Chapter)
