King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

"what?"

"Such an excuse"

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, his half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and his body, which was leaning on the couch, sat up straight in an instant. His eyes changed as he looked at the prince who was so close to him.

Can we still play like this?

Isn’t this similar to the excuse that Japan used when it invaded in modern history?

Hey!
What does boss mean?
Is this bastard sure that he is not a time traveler like him?

This statement.

It was so shocking that Zhu Gaoxu almost dropped his jaw.

At the same time, he couldn't help but carefully observe the prince who was close to him, hoping to confirm his extremely crazy guess from his reaction.

but
I looked at it carefully for a while.

It was discovered that Zhu Gaochi had almost no extra reaction or emotional fluctuations towards this.

It's like talking about something that is very normal and common.

Dele.

If nothing unexpected happens, he must be overthinking again.

then.

Zhu Gaoxu calmed down, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice:
"This move is not impossible."

"but……"

Having said this, he paused, a hint of a playful smile appeared on his face, and he changed the subject and continued:
"Boss! Boss!"

"You're so bad at this."

"Such a wicked and cruel scheme can be thought of."

“It really opened my eyes.”

"Not bad, not bad...very good."

“It’s bad, but I like it…”

"Non-my family, its heart must be different."

"When dealing with these foreign races, you can't reason with them, and you don't need to talk to them about morality."

"One word: 'Do it'. Four words: 'Do it and it's done'."

"At worst, the whole clan or the whole species will be wiped out."

"It would be troublesome if I kept it anyway, just like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark and waiting for its chance to strike."

"It's better to just kill him."

"Isn't it a joy to be a foreign race and give back to our country and our people?"

Zhu Gaochi: "!!!!!!"

No?

What bullshit are you talking about.

Is he praising him or criticizing him indirectly?
Why do I feel like this bastard, Lao Er, has no good intentions in his words?

Why do I feel like I'm deliberately saying things to disgust him?

As a result, my originally good mood suddenly became depressed.

but……

Zhu Gaochi really couldn't find any reason to refute this.

After all, if you think about it carefully, it seems that this was my idea.

There are really some that thing!

After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something, and he smiled, reached out and gently patted Zhu Gaoxu's shoulder, and said with a sly smile:

"Oh ho..."

"Second brother, look at what you said."

"Isn't this... the closer you are to the red, the redder you are, the closer you are to the black, isn't it?"

"It's all because of the good influence and teaching of the second child during this period of time."

"I have really learned a lot from you."

"Ha ha……"

"But compared to your strategies against the steppe Tatars and the Oirat."

"I am nothing compared to a giant. How can a grain of rice dare to compete with the sun and the moon?"

"right?"

The words were spoken with such sincerity.

The expression was so disgusting.

The reply was so interesting.

He is definitely not someone who will suffer any loss.

Zhu Gaoxu: "..."

Depend on!
What the hell?
How come he taught me that?

What does it mean to learn from him?

No, instead of learning the good things, you learn all these crap?

Is it because I taught you well, or are you just like that?
"Boss! Boss!"

"You are such an honest man."

“But he can really talk.”

"Thank you for the compliment."

"Well deserved."

"no……"

"But boss, have you ever thought that maybe it's not because I taught you well or you learned well from me, but because you are just like that in your nature?"

All of a sudden.

The two of them pinched each other.

The scene was extremely joyful.

Anyway, the main point is, you say something and I counter you.

No one wants to suffer a loss.

Even if you suffer a loss with your words, you have to pull others into it.

Talking about this and that for a long time.

Zhu Gaoxu finally didn't bother to argue with him anymore, and stopped talking to him. Instead, he collected his thoughts, waved his hand and said,
"Boss..."

"Is there anything else?"

"If you have nothing else to do, go home."

"You pulled me out of bed in the middle of the night."

"I haven't even woken up from my sleep yet!"

While talking.

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but cover his mouth with his hand and yawn.

See this situation.

What needs to be said has been said.

The consensus that should be reached has already been reached.

Zhu Gaochi naturally no longer had the intention to stay any longer, especially after he finished his work and calmed down.

The image of the Crown Princess, delicate and ready to be picked, emerged in his mind.

As for what the Crown Princess had promised him before he started exercising, he suddenly felt uneasy and a warm current ran through his lower abdomen.

then.

He also waved to Zhu Gaoxu and strode out of the courtyard.

Zhu Gaoxu leaned on the couch, watching the figure disappear at the door.

In his heart, he had already sensed the subtle differences in the prince's words, actions and attitude over just one or two hours.

It can be noticed that the prince's closeness to him has changed significantly.

My defense against him is not that deep anymore.

Zhu Gaoxu's expression flashed with an intriguing expression, and he murmured in a low voice:

"Boss! Boss!"

"Your sudden change really caught me off guard."

"But it's good this way."

"It doesn't matter whether you are sincere or not."

"As long as you're not embarrassed, I'm willing to act with you."

Say it.

Zhu Gaoxu slowly stood up from the couch, shaking his head, and walked towards the room.

The next day.

The sky was white as a fish belly, and the morning sun slowly rose across the ground line.

The palace of the King of Han.

Zhu Gaoxu had gotten up early, and after eating the breakfast prepared by the servants, he put on light clothes, stretched his arms and practiced boxing in the courtyard, humming and hawing. His well-proportioned muscles were sharply defined, and his eight abdominal muscles were faintly visible through the thin clothes.

The sweat beads as big as green beans covered his face and slid down his cheeks from time to time. The thin clothes were also soaked by the sweat without him noticing and stuck tightly to his body.

Da da da.
Just then.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the courtyard.

Then, Lao He was seen walking in from the door in an orderly manner. Seeing Zhu Gaoxu who was practicing boxing, he did not interrupt him but waited quietly by the side.

After about a cup of tea, Zhu Gaoxu, who was humming and laughing, put away his fist, and Lao He, who was waiting quietly at the side, quickly took the brocade handkerchief on the stone table and handed it over.

Zhu Gaoxu took it and wiped the sweat from his face and neck. He reached out to pick up the warm teacup on the table and took a big sip like a cow, simply calming his slightly restless heart.

Afterwards, he looked at Lao He who was waiting beside him and asked:

"Lao He"

"How is the matter going with what I asked you to do last night?"

"Nothing went wrong?"

Hearing this, Lao He bowed slightly to him, his expression suddenly became extremely serious, and replied:
"Go back to your lord."

"Someone has already arranged to deliver the things."

"Nothing happened in the meantime."

"but."

"Not long after the prince issued the order last night, there were many new faces outside our palace, secretly monitoring every move of the palace."

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu was slightly startled, a hint of curiosity flashed across his face, and he gently tapped the stone table with his right hand, and asked with interest:

"what's the situation?"

"Do you know who they are?"

"The Crown Prince, or the Imperial Guards?"

Lao He calmed down and quickly agreed:

"former."

"Last night, after the prince left the palace, it took a cup of tea."

"There are many strangers around our palace."

Get a definite answer.

In this regard.

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand without commenting, as if he had expected this answer. He smiled at him, nodded and said:
"No problem."

"If he wants to monitor, let him monitor!"

"We haven't done anything wrong."

“I’m not afraid of others seeing it.”

Say it.

He waved his hand at him.

In fact, he knew the prince's little thoughts and the deep meaning of this action better than anyone else.

but
This is not important to him at all.

Moreover, the prince's move is doomed to failure.

Do you really think that there are only two ways to leave the palace: the front and back doors?

If that was really the case, how could the arrangements he had made over the years have been hidden from their eyes?
Think about it.

With this kind of surveillance, I'm afraid it's not limited to the Prince of Han's mansion.

Not well fixed.
In his fiefdom, the place where the Princess of Han lives should have fallen under the surveillance of the Prince's forces last night!
But these things were not important at all to Zhu Gaoxu.

He believed that with the Princess of Han's meticulous mind and abilities, everything that happened in her fiefdom would be doomed to be in vain.

"Hehehe"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh, shook his head slightly, and said:
"Pass on my instructions."

"Order someone to notify the Crown Prince and the six ministers."

"We will discuss this matter in the imperial study in the palace half an hour later."

"promise!"

Upon hearing this, Old He bowed, then turned around and strode out the door.

Time flies like an arrow, and time flies like an arrow.

Before I knew it, half an hour had passed.

In the imperial study room in the palace.

Zhu Gaochi, Xia Yuanji, Song Li and other important officials of the court arrived one after another.

Zhu Gaoxu, who was sitting behind the desk, saw everyone coming and pointed to the chairs that had been prepared for them.

Seeing this, the ministers did not hesitate.

After all, everyone has been together for such a long time, so they naturally know Zhu Gaoxu's temper.

Wait for everyone to be seated.

Xia Yuanji looked around at everyone and took the initiative to ask:
"Prince of Han"

"I wonder why you have summoned me here in such a hurry? Is there something important you want to discuss?"

Say it.

All the invited ministers looked over as well. Curiosity flashed across everyone's eyes. They stared at Zhu Gaoxu, waiting for his answer.

However, while they were curious, everyone couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

After all, this gentleman in front of him had dealt with so many people with thundering means yesterday.

Who knows what weird things he's going to do again.

Zhu Gaoxu heard this and took in everyone's expressions. He knew everyone's caution clearly, so he waved his hand and said,
"Gentlemen, please be patient."

"Don't worry, I summoned all the nobles today, and I have absolutely no ill intentions in doing so."

"What happened yesterday is done yesterday."

"What should be turned over has been turned over."

"Besides, I am not the kind of person who holds grudges."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then their frowned brows relaxed immediately, and their originally uneasy hearts also relaxed a lot.

Just don't cause them any trouble.

As for Zhu Gaoxu's self-talk.

No one was in the mood to complain.

"Prince Han is joking."

"We have absolutely no such intention."

"I beg you, Your Majesty, to learn from this."

There are certain things that everyone knows tacitly.

The face that should be given should still be given.

See this situation.

Zhu Gaoxu was too lazy to engage in verbal battles with him and waste too much time on it, so he turned to look at the prince who was leisurely drinking hot tea and watching the show on the side.

In an instant, Zhu Gaochi, who was originally drinking tea leisurely, suddenly noticed the gazes falling on him and looked back involuntarily.

The two looked at each other and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

"cough cough"

After a moment, Zhu Gaochi cleared his throat to ease the embarrassment, put down the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile:

"Second child"

"Just tell me what you have to say."

"Don't look at me like that. It's uncomfortable."

Seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu smiled at him and said:
"Boss"

"I wonder if you still remember what you said to me last night when you pulled me out of bed in the middle of the night in my house?"

"If I haven't forgotten."

"Then how about you please repeat what you said last night to the ministers?"

"It just so happens that all the ministers are here."

"But everything can be discussed and decided."

"If nothing unexpected happens, the third brother will respond to Tianfu in the next few days."

"Then we can start planning and implementing it."

“Avoid any nightmares.”

"What do you say?"

Zhu Gaochi: "."

I knew that the look in that bastard's eyes meant he had nothing good to say.

This is coming.

He was pushed to the front directly, and as the eldest brother and the crown prince of the current dynasty, he took the lead. He is really amazing.

but
That’s it for now.

It has been put on the fire rack.

Whether he said it or not, the second brother's words had already defined the matter.

He was afraid that even if the second son repeated it, these ministers would still think it was his idea.

Simply.

It’s better to admit it openly.

then.

He briefly organized his thoughts and recounted what he had said and thought last night in the Prince of Han's mansion, as well as the plans he and Zhu Gaoxu had made before.

By the time we get to Japan, we will know that the country has huge silver mines with an astronomical amount of money.

The people who were sitting in the chairs and were originally leisurely in the hall could no longer remain calm and could not sit still. They suddenly stood up from their chairs, looking at Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu in astonishment and disbelief, and subconsciously exclaimed and shouted:
"what?"

"How is this possible?"

"How could there be such a small country like Japan?" (End of this chapter)
