Chapter 31 A loving father and a filial son
Zhu Di sighed.

"I can't bear to leave you."

This sentence shocked Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, and they felt inexplicably moved.

It seemed as if Zhu Di had never forgotten them.

Zhu Gaochi, who was sitting nearby, had a slightly lonely look in his eyes.

Perhaps, in Zhu Di's eyes, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were sons.

And he, the crown prince, is just a crown prince, and the ministers exist to maintain stability in the world.

It exists to pave the way for Zhu Zhanji.

It seemed that Zhu Di never said to him that he couldn't bear to leave him.

"Just stay in Yingtian Prefecture these days and behave yourself, don't cause any trouble, okay?"

Hearing Zhu Di's easy-going tone, Zhu Gaoxu nodded in agreement.

"Dad, don't worry, I won't cause trouble again."

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaosui next to him. Noticing Zhu Di's gaze, Zhu Gaosui hurriedly explained.

"Dad, you know me. I have always been well-behaved and never caused any trouble."

As Zhu Di's youngest son, he had almost no chance of becoming emperor.

Above them were the civil Zhu Gaochi, the military Zhu Gaoxu, and the also the civil and military Zhu Zhanji.

It seems that it will never be his turn, so being obedient is his best option.

Zhu Di nodded with a look of satisfaction.

He slapped both of them and also gave them a date.

Now let’s get down to business.

"When the old monk came here from Jiming Temple, he passed by a tavern on Jinchuan Street."

"I heard that someone saw a man wearing a dragon robe in that area."

"I asked you two to come here this time just to get to the bottom of this matter."

Dragon robe? Rebellion?
Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were both leaders who followed Zhu Di in the rebellion.

I am naturally sensitive to these words.

When the word "dragon robe" appeared, the thought that came to their minds was, is someone trying to rebel?
No wonder Zhu Di was so anxious to summon them both.

This kind of thing really cannot be neglected.

Zhu Gaosui said quickly: "Father, I will mobilize the Northern Pacification Office to investigate this matter thoroughly. Even if I have to turn Yingtian Prefecture upside down, I will definitely find the person who plotted treason."

Seeing Zhu Gaosui's solemn promise, Zhu Di warned him: "Don't make too much noise about this matter, and don't make the people of Yingtian Prefecture panic."

If the news of someone wearing the dragon robe and usurping the throne were to get out, it would cause a huge commotion.

It will definitely cause some turmoil in Yingtian Prefecture.

This was not what he wanted to see.

"I understand." Zhu Gaosui said respectfully.

"Well, the second brother will go with you this time, so that your second brother won't be idle and run to my military camp to pick a fight."

"It can be considered as a chance for the second brother to redeem himself."

Zhu Gaochi had the responsibility of regulating the country, and Zhu Gaosui had the responsibility of supervision.

The only person who did not hold any official position was Zhu Gaoxu, and there was nothing that could be done about it.

Who made him only know how to wield swords and sticks and not know anything about clerical work?

If you don't fight, you will naturally be idle at home.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu immediately agreed.

"Yes."

Zhu Di continued to speak to the two of them.

"If there is really no news, you can go to that tavern. The plaque reads: Drinking Dreams."

"Look for the boss there, his name is Zhuang Mu."

"He should know some information. I don't care what method you use. Three days."

"Get to the bottom of this matter."

"If I don't get this memorial in three days, I will lose the position of the commander of the Imperial Guard."

"Just leave it to Zhanji. It's time to train this kid."

When he heard that Zhu Di wanted to hand over the power of the Jinyiwei to Zhu Zhanji.

Both of them felt a jolt in their hearts at the same time.

Originally, they did not have much power and influence.

If they lose the position of the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, it will be even more disadvantageous for them.

Zhu Gaochi was more tolerant towards the two of them out of brotherly love.

But Zhu Zhanji and the two of them were mortal enemies.

They always fight against each other. It is the tradition of the Zhu family that uncles and nephews never get along. "Go ahead."

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui bowed and left.

At this time, Yao Guangxiao, who had been silent, spoke.

"After what the emperor said, I'm afraid the two princes will do anything to investigate the case."

"Isn't the emperor afraid that they will harm Zhuang Mu?"

"Besides, the emperor is not unaware of Zhuang Mu's sleepiness, so why blame him?"

What Zhu Di said just now was actually intended to bring trouble to Zhuang Mu, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

This also made him a little confused.

Zhu Di's inner demons still needed Zhuang Mu's wine to resolve, which put the anger on Zhuang Mu.

This is a bit too risky. Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui are not kind people.

Zhu Di looked at Yao Guangxiao with a smile.

"Old monk, are you feeling distressed?"

Yao Guangxiao said helplessly.

"I am only a monk, not a stone. After spending more time together, it is inevitable that some feelings will arise."

Looking at Yao Guangxiao, Zhu Di patted him lightly.

"Don't worry, Zhuang Mu will be fine."

"You don't know his abilities yet?"

"The reason why I set the fire on Zhuang Mu was to let the second and third brothers get in touch with Zhuang Mu."

"In reality, the things I promised cannot be realized, but they can be realized in dreams."

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi who had been silent.

He knew it very well.

Both Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui had the idea of becoming emperor.

This was the reason why the two of them stayed in the capital.

But after all, the two of them were not suitable to be emperors.

Let Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui contact Zhuang Mu, and then use Zhuang Mu's abilities to fulfill their wishes.

Although in reality, these two people cannot become emperors.

But in dreams you can.

When Yao Guangxiao heard this, he understood what Zhu Di was thinking.

"Then Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that the two princes will take advantage of Zhuang Mu's sleepiness to harm him?"

When Zhuang Mu woke up, no one could hurt him, and he could put everyone in the tavern into a dream in an instant.

And it goes unnoticed.

But the key point is...Zhuang Mu only wakes up for a few hours every day.

It was only a few hours in the afternoon, and the rest of the time I was sleeping.

During this period, could Zhuang Mu still sense the external danger and instantly put everyone in the tavern into a dream?
Zhu Di was silent.

His originally calm face looked a little sad.

I almost forgot about this.

Nothing can happen to Zhuang Mu.

"Zhu Wei."

"My subordinate is here."

"Go monitor the actions of the second and third brothers. If they pose a threat to Zhuang Mu's life, you step in."

"The case needs to be investigated, but there can't be any accidents with Zhuang Mu."

In order to prevent Zhuang Mu from dying in an accident, we still need to take insurance measures to ensure that Zhuang Mu will not die in an accident.

He understood Zhu Gaosui's character.

Among the three brothers, Zhu Gaosui was the most sinister and ruthless, which is why he was put in charge of the Jinyiwei Zhenfu Division.

Have to guard against it.

"Yes." Zhu Wei said.

After everything was settled, Zhu Gaochi stood up tremblingly.

"Father, if I have nothing to do, I will take my leave."

I feel like I heard a lot of things I shouldn't have heard.

He didn't dare to stay any longer.

However, Zhu Di still did not let Zhu Gaochi leave.
