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

Chapter 413 Alligator Dragon! Alligator Dragon! 9
"Your Majesty~"

"Your Majesty~"

"Your Majesty~" The almost manic laughter of Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the deck.

Especially Yang Shiqi, Yu Qian, and Fan Zhong. Almost instantly, the three of them, looking nervous, came before Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, calling out to their emperor in hushed tones.

After all, at this moment, anyone could see that the Xuande Emperor Zhu Zhanji's mental state was extremely abnormal!
It's obvious to anyone with eyes to see that Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, was severely traumatized, which is why this is happening!

In fact, Yang Shiqi and others might be able to understand the current state of madness in Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji.

After all, the psychological trauma Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, suffered in just one day was probably far greater than the total number of traumas he had experienced since ascending the throne! And it was even more unbelievable!
The initial joy and excitement of retrieving the Golden Dragon Token;

Then came the unbelievable sight of a crocodile flying into the sky;
Then came the feeling of being in another world after encountering and participating in feeding the alligator dragon;
Another thing is the stunned silence he felt after seeing the alligator dragon merge into Zhu Zhanhe's body;
Finally, I witnessed the mental breakdown of the alligator dragon after it left its body;

It can be said that everything we see today is constantly refreshing Emperor Xuande's (Zhu Zhanji's) understanding and reshaping his worldview!
At this moment, Yang Shiqi and the other two were truly terrified that the excessive mental stimulation would cause Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, to have his mental state explode or even break down!

Or perhaps, due to excessive stimulation, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, might have suddenly died on the treasure ship of the Prince of Han!
If that happens, things will really get out of control!
Because if that's the case, then it's really forcing the Prince of Han to raise an army and rebel!
"Hahahaha~~~" At this moment, even with the comforting words of Yang Shiqi and others, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, was still laughing wildly out of control!

Even now, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, was laughing so hard that tears streamed down his face! He was still laughing maniacally!

Perhaps, at this moment, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, was mocking the capriciousness of his own fate? Or perhaps he was mocking the cyclical nature of worldly affairs? Or maybe something else entirely!
In short, at this moment, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, had fallen into a huge mental trap of his own making and was unable to extricate himself!

"Your Majesty, calm down~~~"

"Your Majesty, please calm down!" At this moment, Yang Shiqi and the others were still anxiously surrounding Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, constantly calling out to him and trying to persuade him to come back to his senses.

After all, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, was already laughing so hard his face was flushed and he was having trouble breathing! This meant that he could die at any moment!
"It's windy on the deck, let's move my cousin to the cabin first." Zhu Zhanhe said softly, looking at Emperor Xuande Zhu Zhanji, whose face was full of emotional breakdown, tears streaming down his face, his eyes were glazed over, but he was still laughing maniacally.

Zhu Zhanhe knew, of course, that the Xuande Emperor Zhu Zhanji had been provoked and was simply using this as an outlet for his emotions!

"Yes, yes, Your Highness is absolutely right!" After hearing Zhu Zhanhe's words, Yang Shiqi and the other two agreed wholeheartedly. They quickly helped Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, to the warm cabin.
During this period, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, continued to laugh maniacally.

However, it was clear that Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, was already tired from laughing, and his voice was noticeably weaker at this moment!

A moment later, the group moved Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, to the cabin where they had just been talking. Now, Yang Shiqi and the other two were again carefully attending to Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji.

About the time it takes to drink a cup of tea has passed, and Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, has finally finished venting his emotions. At this moment, he is gently wiping away the embarrassing traces of tears and snot that had just flowed down his face, while drinking warm tea.

For a moment, the cabin was completely silent; no one spoke.

Looking at the somewhat bewildered look in Emperor Xuande's eyes, Zhu Zhanhe knew that his cousin was thinking about something again!

Sure enough, the next moment, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, spoke.

"Zhanhe, regarding the gift you gave me, after much consideration, I have decided to accept only the grain crop you mentioned—corn."

As for the other gifts, you should take them back with you. Given my health, I'm afraid I can't enjoy many things anymore.

Besides, my sons are also young, and they can't enjoy much; if they are willing, they will work hard on their own.

I am already very pleased that you have the plan to return the three prefectures to the court.

"Finally, I have given my ancestors an explanation!" After cleaning his face with a warm towel in his hand for a long time, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, finally spoke with a deep sense of loss.

However, when Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, spoke, he wanted Zhu Zhanhe to take most of the grain crops back with him, leaving only corn for the court.

In reality, Emperor Xuande (Zhu Zhanji)'s actions were born out of necessity. After all, the distribution of profits solely based on corn production was enough to cause quite a stir in the court!

As for high-yield crops like sweet potatoes and potatoes, which yield over a thousand catties per mu, Emperor Xuande Zhu Zhanji had no choice but to give them up!

Because he, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, did not have a real dragon to protect his country, unlike the Prince of Han's palace!
Because he, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, is about to die! And his successor is too young! The interests are too great for his children and grandchildren to bear! They simply cannot protect them!

If this enormous profit were to disrupt the originally harmonious situation in the court, then he would be a sinner against the Ming Dynasty!

Even though he has already sown the seeds of disaster for future generations, he doesn't want to cause them any more trouble!

It must be said that at this moment, Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji, demonstrated his wisdom and foresight as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!

"Alright, then let's do as my cousin says!" After hearing Emperor Xuande's words, Zhu Zhanhe understood his predicament. Therefore, Zhu Zhanhe didn't argue and readily agreed!

While Yang Shiqi and his two companions were somewhat surprised by the conversation between Emperor Xuande and Zhu Zhanhe, their primary concern at that moment was Emperor Xuande's health.

Therefore, they didn't pay much attention to the gifts Zhu Zhanhe mentioned giving to the Xuande Emperor. After all, they were just small gifts; if the Emperor didn't like them and wanted to return them, they, as court officials, naturally couldn't say anything!
Little did they know that what they were giving up was an immense fortune!

"Let's return." Seeing that everything had returned to calm, Zhu Zhanhe said softly to Liu Erniu beside him. After all, looking at the time, it was already getting late, and it would be best to send the Xuande Emperor back as soon as possible!
"Yes!" Liu Erniu naturally had no objection to Zhu Zhanhe's words, and then turned around and left the cabin.

On the return journey, Zhu Zhanhe noticed the awkward silence in the cabin. So, he started talking and began introducing his dragon-shaped tortoise to Emperor Xuande, Zhu Zhanji.

After all, in Zhu Zhanhe's view, the other party had already seen the alligator dragon, so there was no harm in saying more!
“Cousin, this alligator dragon is made using my blood as a medium. That’s why my blood was used to taint everyone’s keepsakes. Unfortunately, the blood is only effective for one month.”

“My eldest son, Yu’er, has been trained since childhood and can now control the alligator dragon without relying on tokens.”

"Although everyone calls it a real dragon, it's actually just a crocodile dragon, only a bit bigger."

"The alligator dragon can't fly; it just jumps a little higher."

"After fusing with the alligator dragon, I should be able to live to around 120 years old."
