Ming Dynasty: The Crocodile King of Han Prince Zhu Gaoxu's Family

Chapter 91 Twelve Essays on the Fall of the Ming Dynasty 3
Looking at the people who were still in a daze, Zhu Zhanhe turned his head to look out the window, only to see that the sky had turned a fish belly-like white.

Just as everyone was staring at the white cloth in front of them, there was a sudden "creak" sound of the door opening. This sound startled everyone and they quickly turned around to look.

I only saw Prince Zhao sticking his head out and pushing the door open with a smile on his face. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw the serious faces of the people in front of him.

"Dad! The ministers are all waiting for you to come to court. Are you going to court today?" Prince Zhao, the bronze pea, suddenly appeared out of nowhere and opened the door! At the same time, he called Emperor Yongle to court!

In just a moment, Emperor Yongle's heart dropped to freezing point! His eyes were filled with cold murderous intent!
"What did you see?!" Emperor Yongle asked in a low voice, looking at Prince Zhao who had just peeked in. This voice made everyone's hair stand on end! Even Zhu Zhanji shuddered!
Oh no! Emperor Yongle has murderous intentions, even towards his own son!
"Asshole, who let you in without a whistle?! Kneel down!" Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi felt something was wrong when he heard Emperor Yongle's voice. He panicked even more after seeing his father's expression. But he couldn't let Emperor Yongle kill his own son! This was a huge farce!
The prince reacted quickly, dragged his chubby body, and trotted to the door of Prince Zhao. He kicked the trouble-making and short-sighted third brother to the ground, and he rolled over!
After kicking the man, the prince looked outside, quickly closed the door, and then immediately stood in front of Prince Zhao, using his chubby body to block Emperor Yongle's gaze that was ready to devour someone!
"Dad! The third brother is a reckless person, don't bother with him! He is so far away that he must not see anything!" The moment he spoke, Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi was sweating profusely. He looked at Emperor Yongle nervously, kowtowed to Emperor Yongle and began to explain for his brother!

"Dad, I didn't see anything! Really!" Prince Zhao was not stupid either. He was wondering what was happening after being kicked by the eldest brother!
Prince Zhao was initially quite angry about the kick from his eldest brother, but upon seeing his eldest brother's actions and his uncontrollable trembling body, he couldn't help but guess that he had gotten into a huge mess! He immediately knelt down and prostrated himself on the ground with his head drooping.

What's more, as the mastermind of Emperor Yongle, Prince Zhao could definitely hear the murderous intent in his father's tone!
"Dad! When the third brother came in, He'er had already finished speaking, and the door was so far away that he couldn't see it!" Prince Han was also confused by the sudden intrusion of the third brother, but he still knelt on the ground and pleaded for his third brother!
Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhanhe stopped eating and knelt silently on the ground beside him, and Zhu Zhanji also knelt down.

Emperor Yongle narrowed his eyes, his veins bulging as he gripped the golden belt around his waist with both hands. He stared intently at his overweight son, his eyes seemingly piercing through him and seeing Prince Zhao behind him. He ignored the pleas for mercy from Prince Han beside him.

I won’t really die here today! Prince Zhao was also full of panic at this moment.

"Grandpa, I originally asked Third Uncle to handle this matter. Although Third Uncle is late, the Jinyiwei under his command are all good at doing things.

We have a lot of things to do next, and anyone needs to do anything we want to do! Uncle San is very suitable to do these things." Zhu Zhanhe looked at the deathly silent bedroom, and then he opened his mouth to help speak.

Emperor Yongle remained expressionless, staring intently at Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi, Prince Han, Zhu Zhanji, and Zhu Zhanhe. After a moment, he silently closed his eyes and finally spoke.

"Everyone, stand up. Come here and kneel down!" Emperor Yongle finally suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, but that cold look could not be faked!

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi almost fell to the ground, but fortunately Prince Zhao from behind helped him up.

Prince Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief, and his prone body softened. He then quickly crawled a few steps forward and knelt beside everyone.

Although he didn't know what had happened, Prince Zhao knew that he would not die, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Prince Zhao looked at the people around him and was about to say thank you, but Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi covered his mouth and signaled him to be quiet! This made Prince Zhao look confused!
"It's daybreak now, let's eat something and take some medicine!" Zhu Zhanhe saw that the emergency was finally resolved, so he asked everyone to eat something and take some medicine to relieve their tension.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone stared blankly at Zhu Zhanhe, who was inviting everyone to eat and drink. Their faces were filled with disbelief! What time is it now? And you're still thinking about eating and drinking?!
Besides, how much did you eat just now? !

"Eat something to fill your stomach, we still have to discuss how to solve the problem!" Seeing that everyone ignored him, Zhu Zhanhe was not going to be polite with them. He persuaded them again and continued to eat the cold food. He couldn't help but complain in his heart: Look at this emperor, the food is cold when it comes! Ha!
After hearing what Zhu Zhanhe said, everyone felt their stomachs rumbling.

But at this moment, except for Prince Zhao who looked confused, the rest of the people had no intention of eating or drinking at all, and only had a look of distress on their faces!

So, in order not to waste time, Emperor Yongle took the lead, took two steamed buns in his hands, drank two bowls of cold medicine, applied ice to his tired face, turned around and came to the white cloth again, and looked at it carefully.

The others followed suit, took the food, drank the medicine, applied ice to their faces, and stared at the white cloth again.

Zhu Zhanhe secretly took a box of snacks and a bowl of medicine for his kneeling third uncle Tongwandou.

"Uncle San, have a drink and eat something. There's still a lot of time today!" Zhu Zhanhe lowered his voice and whispered to the confused Prince Zhao.

Emperor Yongle was chewing on the cold steamed bun in his hand. When he saw Zhu Zhanhe's action, he rolled his eyes but did not stop him. Instead, he just glanced silently at his eldest son (Zhu Zhanji) who was silent beside him.

After looking for a long time, Emperor Yongle was filled with impatience, but he had no clue at all.

"Tell me, each of you have your own method!" Emperor Yongle munched on a steamed bun while scanning the surroundings with sharp and eager eyes. Finally, his gaze fell on Monk Daoyan.

Prince Zhao suppressed his bitterness and drank the medicine, while secretly eating some snacks. After entering the room, he noticed a long white cloth placed in the room. However, he was overwhelmed by what happened just now, so he ignored the content on the white cloth. Now he could finally take a closer look, so he ate some snacks while looking at the words written on the white cloth.

Suddenly, Prince Zhao looked like a snack was stuck in his throat. His eyes were wide open and his face was full of fear. One hand was pointing at the contents on the white cloth, and the other hand was covering his mouth, and he was unable to breathe as if he was dying.
