Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

Zhu Di's face suddenly became gloomy, and it was as gloomy as a dark cloud that was so thick that it seemed to crush everything, pressing heavily on his face.

Every trace of haze seemed to be accumulating tremendous power, as if it would bring down heavy rain without hesitation in the next second, sweeping everything in the world into this storm.

In Zhu Di's cognitive system, Zhu Biao, as the crown prince, was entrusted with the heavy responsibility of inheriting the Ming Dynasty and was a well-deserved heir to the throne.

Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the position of Crown Prince has carried the expectations of countless people and symbolizes the hope and orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty's future.

This is not only a symbol of identity, but also a sacred and inviolable mission inheritance.

Zhu Biao's existence maintained the stability of the entire country and the support of the people.

Like a magic needle that stabilizes the sea, it stabilizes the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Biao's position was one of utmost respect.

Just like the supreme sun, it shines brightly and illuminates all people.

Under this strict hierarchical royal order, he deserves everyone's heartfelt respect and unreserved obedience.

This is not only a respect for Zhu Biao personally, but also a maintenance of the royal dignity and the entire Ming Dynasty's ruling order.

However, the scene at this moment made Zhu Di furious.

Wang Biao was so bold as to openly disobey Zhu Biao.

In Zhu Di's eyes, this action was undoubtedly a blatant challenge to the prince's supreme authority.

This challenge is like throwing a huge rock into a calm lake, which instantly stirs up a thousand waves and breaks the harmony and tranquility that should exist.

Moreover, in Zhu Di's view, this was more like a wanton trampling of the royal order.

Royal ethics are the fundamental principles that maintain the operation of the dynasty, like solid beams and pillars that support the entire Ming Dynasty.

Wang Biao's action was like swinging an axe madly at the beam. If it was not stopped, the entire Ming Dynasty would be in danger of collapse.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di's anger burned fiercely in his chest.

He stared at Wang Biao with a sharp gaze, as if he wanted to cut him into pieces.

Zhu Di stood there, seemingly calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.

An extremely complex emotion, like a turbulent undercurrent, quietly surged deep in his heart.

Among these emotions, the most pressing one was the deep shock and strong anger at Zhu Gang's bold behavior.

Wang Biao dared to openly disobey Zhu Biao, the crown prince, in public. In Zhu Di's view, this extremely audacious behavior was undoubtedly secretly instructed by Zhu Gang.

However, apart from the shock and anger, Zhu Di was more deeply worried about the changes in the situation.

He grew up in the palace and was accustomed to all kinds of power struggles and conspiracies.

He knew that any conflicts and disputes within the royal family were by no means trivial matters.

They are like the butterfly in the tropical rainforest of the Amazon River Basin in South America. A few seemingly careless flaps of their wings may cause a huge storm in a distant place.

This royal conflict is very likely to trigger a series of complex chain reactions like the butterfly effect.

The infighting within the palace spread to the factional disputes in the court, which in turn affected the stability of the entire court.

Once the court falls into chaos, the foundation of the Ming Dynasty will inevitably be impacted.

This is undoubtedly a huge potential threat to the future of the entire dynasty.

Zhu Di frowned, his eyes revealing deep worry.

He understood that he had to remain calm at this moment and pay close attention to the development of the situation.

At the same time, Zhu Di was thinking about how to maintain the dignity and stability of the royal family and ensure the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty in this ever-changing situation.

Otherwise, once the situation gets out of control, the consequences will be disastrous. At this moment, Zhu Di's heart was surging like a raging storm, but on the surface he tried his best to remain calm.

However, the irrepressible emotions still leaked out inadvertently.

He secretly clenched his fists, his knuckles turning slightly white due to the force.

The nails were deeply embedded in the palms, as if to vent all the anger and worry in this small movement.

The sharp nails pierced the skin, causing a slight stinging pain, but Zhu Di, who was so worried about the current situation, was completely unaware of it.

He just stood there quietly, like a resolute statue, emitting a cold aura.

At this moment, Zhu Di's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and he scanned everything around him with a burning gaze.

That look seemed to be able to penetrate the surface and see into everyone's inner thoughts and intentions.

Every subtle movement, every change in expression could not escape his sharp eyes.

Behind these sharp eyes is Zhu Di's rapidly working brain.

He was nervously analyzing the current situation and thinking about how to deal with it.

Trying to find a way to stabilize the situation, maintain the royal dignity and the foundation of the Ming Dynasty in this chaotic situation.

"Wang Biao, you are so brave!

The crown prince has always enjoyed the power of regent in this dynasty. When our father is not present, my eldest brother is the highest-ranking decision-maker in the Ming Dynasty.

How dare you question the prince in public? What is your intention? "

Wang Biao did not expect Zhu Di to put such a big hat on him, and he quickly explained: "Your Highness Prince of Yan, please do not misunderstand, I have absolutely no intention of disobeying Your Highness the Crown Prince.

Everything I said and did today was for the public good, please understand the King of Yan and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Gang reminded him meaningfully at this critical moment: "Wang Biao, you were the one who investigated Zhang Changshi's affairs from beginning to end.

Since you think he is plotting treason, then show the evidence to the Crown Prince and the King of Yan!"

Wang Biao shifted his gaze away from the look Zhu Gang was giving Zhu Biao, and the images of the two executed gray-clad men suddenly flashed through his mind.

In an instant, he seemed to be back at the bloody execution ground, with the sound of the falling knife and the screams of the crowd around him echoing in his ears.

When he thought of the two men in gray, Wang Biao felt a chill suddenly rising from the soles of his feet and spreading throughout his body in an instant.

His face turned pale as paper in an instant, and beads of sweat quickly appeared on his forehead.

Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his cheeks and soaked Wang Biao's collar.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Biao felt a numbness on his back, and cold sweat broke out uncontrollably, soaking his clothes in an instant.

It felt cool against his back, and Wang Biao couldn't help but shiver.

He knew very well that the death of the two gray-clad men, seemingly a punishment for their crimes, was actually another means for Zhu Gang to establish his authority.

At this moment, he was dragged into this storm by Zhu Gang, just like being in a turbulent whirlpool.

If I fail to deal with it properly, the next person to be beheaded like the Man in Gray would most likely be myself.

This fear was like an invisible big hand, tightly strangling Wang Biao's throat, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

"Regarding Zhang Changshi's case of treason, I have only found witnesses so far.

However, these people are currently in Datong Prefecture. Your Highnesses can meet them as long as they follow our King Jin here."
