My father is Yongle, and all I want is to cultivate immortality.

Chapter 20 You want to go to Yunnan to take up your fiefdom? I absolutely disagree!

"You brat, don't try that on me. I've already told you, the matter of alchemy is entrusted to you."

"You don't have a pill-making cauldron now, but I'll provide one for you. You don't have a place to put it, but I can provide one for you there too."

"You must refine this Rejuvenation Pill!" Zhu Di glared at Zhu Gaochi. "And don't try to play the victim with me, it won't work!"

Zhu Gaoxu sighed. Now things were really bad. It wouldn't be so easy for him to continue cultivating immortality in a lowly manner.

This time, he successfully refined the Rejuvenation Pill, which made Zhu Di and others extremely envious.

In the coming period, it will probably not be easy to find peace and quiet and immerse oneself in cultivation.

However, Zhu Gaoxu still needed to maintain control, and he also had to go to Yunna's fiefdom!

If he doesn't go, it will be even more difficult for him to settle down and cultivate immortality in the capital.

"Father, I can agree to your request to try refining the Rejuvenation Pill, but I have a condition," Zhu Gaoxu said.

Zhu Di said, "Speak, anything I can do, I will grant your request!"

"You can definitely do this!" Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile. Zhu Di was so shrewd that when he saw the look in Zhu Gaoxu's eyes, he vaguely guessed what was going on.

"You little rascal, you haven't given up on your plans and are actually thinking of going to Yunnan to take up your fiefdom, have you?"

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui were both startled!

Now that the second son has shown his talent and ability, given his father's personality, would he let him go to Yunnan to take up his fiefdom?

Zhu Gaoxu said with emotion, "No one knows a son better than his father!"

"As expected of Father, you guessed what I was thinking right away."

"Alright, stop flattering me, kid." Zhu Di rolled his eyes, though he had his own plans in mind.

If previously, when his second son went to Yunnan to assume his fiefdom several times, Zhu Di was somewhat swayed.

But now that he knows this King of Han is a master alchemist, how could he possibly let him go to Yunnan?

Regardless of Zhu Gaoxu's previous intentions, Zhu Di at present absolutely cannot allow Zhu Gaoxu to go to Yunnan to assume his fiefdom.

This kid is the living god of the Zhu family.

How could Zhu Di bear to let such an extraordinary living god leave?

"Isn't it good to be in the capital?"

Zhu Di said, "Now that you are a master alchemist, developing your career in the capital is the best choice."

"Besides, even if it were me, I wouldn't want you to leave. Would your elder brother and your younger brothers want you to leave?"

Seeing this, Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui also hurriedly expressed their opinions.

The first to speak was Zhu Gaochi: "Yes, we are brothers. Now that we are both in the capital, we can look after each other. This is a good thing!"

"Big brother is right, I'll miss you too!"

"We three brothers grew up together since childhood. If you really go to Yunnan to take up your fief, don't you miss the two of us brothers?" Zhu Gaosui also started to speak.

"I don't want to," Zhu Gaoxu said.

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui: ...

Zhu Di saw this and waved his hand impatiently.

"That's enough, don't say anything more, just focus on refining the pills."

"I have sent you alchemy cauldrons, all of them top-notch. You just need to refine pills for me."

"As for other matters, don't worry about them for now," Zhu Di ordered.

Zhu Gaoxu's lips twitched. This father of his was truly domineering!

He sighed inwardly, knowing that going to Yunnan to take up his post would likely not be an easy task in the near future.

It's going to be very difficult.

Zhu Di's eyes darted around, and he suddenly looked at Zhu Gaoxu.

"There are no outsiders here. I have something I want to ask you carefully."

Zhu Gaoxu's heart tightened. What did his father want to ask?

Zhu Di asked, "I'd really like to know, how did you manage to do that?"

"This alchemy technique is nothing but nonsense. Throughout history, not only ordinary people, but even emperors have taken drugs quite a few times, but unfortunately, none of them succeeded."

"Because the pills refined from them are 100% poisonous."

"But the elixir you refined has broken a historical miracle. Not only did you refine it, but it also has the miraculous effect of restoring youth."

"What exactly happened to you, kid?"

Upon hearing this, both the Crown Prince and Prince Zhao glanced at Zhu Gaoxu.

Similarly, they also wanted to know how Zhu Gaoxu had managed to do it.

"Well..."

Zhu Gaoxu stammered, "This is my secret, and also an opportunity I've encountered. It's not convenient to tell you right now!"

"What, can't I even tell your father?" Zhu Di said, squinting his eyes.

"I can't say!" Zhu Gaoxu said seriously.

"You unfilial son!"

Zhu Di was so angry that he was about to slap him, but Zhu Gaoxu smiled faintly and dodged to the side.

"Alright, I won't waste any more words with you," Zhu Di said. "In the next few days, I will send over a few fine alchemical cauldrons. You can start refining them for me!"

"In a few days, I will personally build an alchemy pavilion for you. Then you can go on and experiment to your heart's content inside!"

"The Alchemy Pavilion?!"

Upon seeing this, both Zhu Gaoxu himself and Zhu Gaochi were shocked.

Zhu Gaochi and his group, in particular, never expected that Zhu Di would build an alchemy pavilion for Zhu Gaoxu so that he could continue to refine elixirs.

This is quite a large-scale undertaking!

"This...this..." Zhu Gaochi opened his mouth slightly, but he showed no joy. He only smiled bitterly and said, "But Father, I still want to..."

"Alright, that's settled then!"

"You'd better prepare yourself!"

After saying this, Zhu Di turned around and prepared to leave.

"No, I haven't said that yet. I still want to go to Yun..."

But Zhu Di left the Prince of Han's residence before he could finish speaking.

The moment Zhu Di stepped out of the Prince of Han's residence, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

You want to go to Yunnan to take up your fiefdom? I absolutely disagree!

What can you do about it? What can you do about it?

Zhu Gaoxu was furious as he watched his father's departing figure!

That old bastard!

"Second brother, this is great news! Our father has set up a pill refining pavilion for you, so you can refine pills with peace of mind from now on." Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui both came over to greet him.

"Come on!" Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand.

He was very agitated because Zhu Di wouldn't let him go to his fiefdom, but instead set up an alchemy pavilion for him. What did this mean?

This shows that his father wanted to use the matter of the alchemy pavilion to keep him in the capital and prevent him from leaving.

"Sigh, if I had known it would be like this, I shouldn't have rushed into alchemy at the beginning. Now look what's happened, I can't even leave if I want to," Zhu Gaoxu muttered to himself.

He then looked at Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui.

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

"No meals provided today!"

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui: ...

They were speechless, and in the end, they left the Prince of Han's residence in embarrassment.

"This second brother is quite the hidden talent."

After leaving the Prince of Han's residence, Zhu Gaochi was the first to speak.
