Chapter 59: This kid was put in charge of the country, but he actually wandered around outside the p
Outside the Fengtian Hall, all the civil and military officials were waiting.
He was waiting for the Prince of Han.
Now, the Prince of Han has become the focus of attention!
The emperor's decision to appoint him as regent was surprising, but anyone with discerning eyes could see the reason.
That is, His Majesty the Emperor did this for only one purpose: the second son has recently made money, and the Emperor is about to launch a northern expedition.
If the funds are insufficient, let the second son step in!
Of course, if the civil and military officials could think of this, how could Zhu Gaochi himself not have thought of it?
At this moment, among all the civil and military officials, those standing at the very front were the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince's grandson, and the Prince of Zhao.
"This time, His Majesty has appointed Second Brother to oversee the country. Are you worried, Eldest Brother?" Zhu Gaosui asked.
"Don't panic, what do I have to panic about?" Zhu Gaochi laughed. "Third brother, you are still too young. When you become regent, you will know just how difficult things are."
Zhu Gaosui pouted.
He thought to himself: I also want to oversee the country, but the old man won't agree!
He's the one who's having the hardest time!
Above them was the Crown Prince, and below them was the Prince of Han.
He's just a pathetic clown!
"He's here! His Highness the Prince of Han has arrived!"
Suddenly, someone shouted.
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, and all their eyes turned to him.
Soon, they saw a place where Zhu Gaochi was riding in the imperial dragon palanquin, which only the emperor could ride, heading towards the Fengtian Hall.
hiss!
Everyone gasped in shock.
This was something they hadn't expected. What they least expected was that this Prince of Han had countless followers behind him.
The most dazzling thing was the large gold sign he was holding behind him!
The sign above reads: "By Imperial Decree, Regent of the State!"
This...this is a bit too ostentatious, isn't it?
Everyone felt a pang in their hearts.
Soon, the Prince of Han arrived at the entrance of the Fengtian Hall in his imperial carriage.
A guard said respectfully, "Your Highness, the time has come, and all the ministers are waiting. Shouldn't you go in now?"
Zhu Gaoxu's eyes flashed, but before he could speak...
Everyone immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said, "You're too kind."
After saying that, he stretched and said with a smile, "I must say, this dragon carriage is quite comfortable. I don't even want to get off."
The entire court: ...
The Crown Prince and Prince Zhao: ...
"Your Highness..." Upon seeing this, the guards carrying the imperial carriage tried to put it down.
After all, they had arrived at the entrance of the Fengtian Hall, where all the civil and military officials were waiting.
But before the imperial carriage could be put down, Zhu Gaoxu stopped him, saying, "No rush, no rush!"
"It doesn't matter if today's morning court session is a quarter of an hour later."
"The most important thing now is the python robe I wear."
"I've just put on this python robe, and I don't know if it suits me. I need all the ministers to take a good look at it and see if it's worthy of my status as regent."
The entire court was stunned.
Both the Crown Prince and Prince Zhao nearly tripped and lost their footing.
Second brother, is he really here for the morning court session?
How could that be? It sounds like they're just showing off!
"Hey, you guys carry the imperial carriage and wander around outside this main hall for a while," Zhu Gaoxu ordered.
What the hell!
Everyone was stunned. Could it really be done like this?
Yang Shiqi and the others all twitched their lips violently.
So, they came here not to attend the morning court session, but to watch the second prince's live show?
Before they could think further, Zhu Gaoxu said, "Spin it, spin it."
"Yes...yes..."
The guards were speechless, but since the Prince of Han had given such an order, they dared not disobey.
So next, everyone saw the Prince of Han wearing a python robe, riding in a dragon carriage, and strolling around outside the main hall.
Whether it was the Crown Prince, the Grandson of the Crown Prince, or others, they were all numb from watching.
Of course, there were also members of the Han King Party, all of whom were visibly excited.
"Look at the Prince of Han, how majestic he looks in his python robe!"
"As expected of our prince, he's truly magnificent."
"So authoritative!!"
In an instant, the members of the Han King's faction all knelt down and shouted "Heroic Prince Han!" This left the Crown Prince's faction and others completely bewildered.
Not only that, but several hours passed in the blink of an eye for the Prince of Han.
You heard me right, it's just a few hours.
This made the Crown Prince and others restless.
They were all speechless.
"Second brother, can you please hurry up and go inside?" Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but say, "We can't just stay here waiting, can we?"
"Yes, yes!" In an instant, everyone else nodded in agreement; they had lost their patience.
Zhu Gaoxu sat on the dragon-drawn carriage.
"Your Highness, look how anxious you are," Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile. "If it were yesterday, I wouldn't have found fault with you."
"But today is different," Zhu Gaochi said calmly. "Now that I have the responsibility of overseeing the country, my words are orders."
After saying that, he called out to the guards carrying the imperial carriage: "You take a break for a while, then we'll have another group of people take over and continue our stroll."
"Yes, yes!" The guards nodded quickly.
Zhu Gaoxu sat on the dragon carriage, closing his eyes to rest.
Everyone:…
They all glanced at His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Just you wait and see what I'm going to do."
Time flies, and it's almost noon.
The Han King's imperial carriage swayed outside the main hall countless times.
…………
Inside Jiming Temple.
Zhu Di, who was drinking tea, spat out a mouthful of aged tea.
"You...you say it again?" Zhu Di seemed to have misheard.
Ji Gang cautiously said, "The Prince of Han is wearing a python robe and is sitting in a dragon carriage outside the main hall. He has been swaying around since this morning and has not yet entered the hall."
"Damn it, damn it!"
Zhu Di was completely out of his depth.
"I appointed this lad to oversee the country, and he's been wandering around outside the palace all afternoon?!"
Zhu Di was furious; he was about to stand up and explode.
"Your Majesty, please calm down," Yao Guangxiao said. "This Prince of Han is probably testing you. If you make a move, you will lose."
Zhu Di's lips twitched.
"Alright, I'd like to see just how far this kid can go with his nonsense!"
…………
Outside the Fengtian Hall.
Zhu Gaochi and the others simply couldn't take it anymore.
Under the urgent persuasion of Zhu Gaochi and the Crown Prince, who were crying, Zhu Gaoxu reluctantly stepped down from the imperial carriage.
"Alright, alright."
Zhu Gaochi looked at the guards: "You must be tired too. Go to the Prince of Han's residence to collect your rewards. You'll all get your share of my gold coins."
His words deeply moved the guards.
They quickly thanked them and then left.
For a moment, all the civil and military officials were ashamed. This Prince of Han is indeed wealthy. It seems that when His Majesty confiscated his property, he really had a backup plan.
This Prince of Han is truly a master of deception!
