After Chu Ziya entered the imperial study room, he knelt down to Chu Boxiong and said, "My son is paying homage to his father."

Chu Boxiong looked up at Chu Ziya who was kneeling down, and then said, "I came a little late today."

"My son is sleeping a little bit, please don't blame me." Chu Ziya kowtowed and apologized.

Chu Boxiong waved his hand and said, "It's okay, but today is good, you missed the beautiful scenery of the morning."

Chu Ziya did not reply, but buried his head deeper.

After writing the case, Chu Boxiong put down the cinnabar pen that made the memorials, then looked at Chu Ziya who was kneeling down, and said, "Zizhan came here early this morning. He said that the weather was good today and wanted to accompany me to the Imperial Garden. I haven't been there for a long time. When Zizhan accompanied me to see it in the morning, I felt much smoother."

Chu Ziya didn't know what Chu Boxiong said to him, because he didn't know why, so he didn't respond, but knelt there honestly.

When Chu Boxiong saw Chu Ziya not responding, he just sighed softly, and continued, "The North Korean mission will arrive in half a month. How are you preparing?"

Chu Ziya replied: "Basically, it has been prepared properly. At that time, it will not lose the majesty of our Chu State, but...

Chu Ziya seemed to have thought of something, and then asked: "Father, did you just say that the North Korean mission will arrive at Kyoto Prefecture in half a month?"

"That's right." Chu Boxiong did not deny this.

"Didn't you say that it would take one month to get to Kyoto Prefecture? Why is it only half a month now?" Chu Ziya asked in surprise.

Chu Boxiong seemed very dissatisfied with Chu Ziya's questioning, snorted coldly, and then said: "Yesterday, North Korea's advance personnel came to Kyoto Prefecture, saying that it was because of the speed, so the itinerary was ahead of schedule."

After Chu Boxiong said this, he paused for a moment, and then continued, "Zizhan just asked me for instructions, and he wanted to preside over this welcoming ceremony."

Chu Ziya was stunned. He never thought that this was the reason why Chu Zizhan came.

"Father, have you... agreed?"

If it was an ordinary welcoming ceremony, the eldest prince Chu Zizhan wanted to accept it, Chu Ziya would give it to him.

It was, and there was no complaint. This time we were greeted by a mission from North Korea. This matter, in small matter, was related to the national system, and in large part, it affected the ownership of the future heirs of Chu.

Although Chu Ziya is the crown prince now, his crown prince was snatched from Chu Zizhan back then. Since he could snatch it away, the eldest prince might snatch it back.

So when Chu Ziya heard Chu Boxiong's words, he couldn't help but start to murmur in his heart, was it because his position as the crown prince was not guaranteed?

Chu Boxiong thought for a long time, then shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. Since you said you are ready, then you can continue to preside over the welcoming ceremony and ask Zizhan to help you. I heard that there are some good things in his place and will be brought to the North Korean mission at that time."

Chu Ziya was stunned. Although she was unhappy, she knew that it was useless to resist, so Chu Ziya had to bow and thank her.

Seeing that the prince had agreed to this matter, Chu Boxiong did not continue to talk about the topic. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "I heard that the Kyoto Prefecture was not peaceful last night?"

Chu Ziya replied: "It's indeed a bit uneasy."

"What's going on?" Chu Boxiong asked.

"I heard that Deng Yue took action. He was very fierce in the inn at that time. After learning about the situation, my son-in-law immediately sent someone to contact the Kyoto Prefecture Office to mobilize the prefecture troops to maintain order." Chu Ziya replied slowly.

"Did Deng Yue catch it?" Chu Boxiong asked.

Chu Ziya paused, then slowly shook his head and said, "No, at that time..."

Before Chu Ziya could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Chu Boxiong.

Chu Boxiong said, "Oh, I understand, you go down. Focus on etiquette these days, and have time to go to your royal brother to see if he has any good suggestions, so don't delay things at that time."

When Chu Ziya saw that his words were interrupted, he felt depressed. Later, when he heard Chu Boxiong's words, he felt extremely unhappy. However, now he is in the palace and he is not easy to get angry, so he can only press his breath in his heart.

"The son is obeying the teachings of the father, and the son is leaving."

Chu Boxiong waved his hand, as if he didn't want to see him, and then he didn't look at him again, but picked up the cinnabar pen on the table and continued to criticize him.

The memorial was changed.

When Chu Ziya left the imperial study room, Hou Sizheng waited in front of the door. When he saw the prince coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

Chu Ziya was not in a mood to pay attention to Hou Sizheng now, so he waved his hand to him, and then called Xiaoyan to leave the palace.

After seeing Chu Ziya leave, Hou Sizheng just sighed and hurried into the imperial study room.

When Chu Boxiong saw Hou Sizheng coming in, he asked him: "Who do you think Zizhan and Ziya are suitable to inherit my position?"

After hearing this, Hou Sizheng felt tight and a fine sweat began to seep out of his forehead. Then he hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know, and I dare not comment even more."

Chu Boxiong looked up and looked at Hou Sizheng, who was trembling there, then smiled and said, "Don't panic, I'll just ask casually."

Although Chu Boxiong said this, Hou Sizheng still did not get up, but buried his head lower.

Chu Boxiong sighed. He also knew that Hou Sizheng's reaction was justified, so he did not continue to say it, but said another thing.

"Last night, the girl named Xiaoyan next to Ziya went to Kyoto Prefecture."

When Hou Sizheng heard this beginning, he guessed what Chu Boxiong was going to say in his heart, and said, "The prince and Lord Kong are teachers and students. Xiaoyan went to the Kyoto Prefecture Office. He should just greet Lord Kong for the prince."

Chu Boxiong shook his head and said, "Ziya asked Kong Xu to assist him in arresting Deng Yue."

Hou Sizheng quickly kowtowed, and then said to Chu Boxiong: "Your Majesty, this is a good thing. The prince is beginning to share his worries for Your Majesty."

Chu Boxiong waved his hand and said, "Maybe, you can wait at the door first. I want to stay by myself for a while."

Hou Sizheng responded, and then left the imperial study room.

Hou Sizheng was not sure about Chu Boxiong's thoughts. What he was worried about was that the prince went to find Kong Xu directly without passing him. In fact, whether this matter was big or small, it made Chu Boxiong doubt Chu Ziya's real purpose.
