Chapter 171 The person who was supposed to come didn’t come
Zhu Bai turned back to the front and looked at the person holding the fold. Haha, it turned out to be that Liu Shengun.
Liu Bowen even tricked Lao Zhu into making a will to confirm the crown prince's position as heir apparent.
Although Lao Zhu thought so in his heart, everyone also acquiesced.
But if I don't write it down in black and white, if Lao Zhu has an accident, I'm afraid it will be chaotic.
As a minister, Liu Bowen cannot be said to be wrong in taking this excerpt. He was also thinking about Jiangshan Sheji and Zhu Biao.
But at this critical moment, it seems like he is cursing Lao Zhu to death.
However, Zhu Bai can also understand.
After all, this is the first time in more than ten years that Lao Zhu has not been able to attend court due to illness.
No matter how strong Lao Zhu is, he is still almost fifty.
Zhu Biao said: "What do you think we should do?"
As the saying goes, if the name is not correct, the words are not correct.
In fact, Zhu Biao hoped from the bottom of his heart that Lao Zhu would accept this idea, but he didn't want Lao Zhu to feel uncomfortable.
Zhu Bai said: "Don't show it to your father yet. We will wait until your father is well."
Zhu Biao nodded: "That's fine."
They compiled the notes and reported to Lao Zhu.
Lao Zhu now drank some ginger soup and porridge, and his complexion felt much better. He sat on the warm couch and lowered his eyes to listen to Zhu Biao's report.
Zhu Biao first read out the list of officials who had written notes to express condolences to Lao Zhu.
After hearing this, Lao Zhu only frowned and asked: "No more?"
Zhu Biao said: "No more."
Zhu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly: Hey, look at Lao Zhu, is there someone who deserves greetings but not greetings?
Then Zhu Biao went on to talk about those three or five things and how he dealt with them.
Lao Zhu briefly commented on Zhu Biao's handling opinions, and then said: "Brothers, if you work together, you can cut off gold. You two have cooperated well."
Zhu Bai smiled and handed over his hands: "Erchen is only responsible for helping the prince brother sort the memorials. He can't help with anything else. I think I don't need your help tomorrow."
"It's so frustrating for you monkey." Empress Ma pursed her lips and smiled. In fact, she was a little worried that Zhu Bai would take the opportunity to seize power in the morning. But Zhu Bai was anxious to get rid of it. It seemed that she was overthinking.
Lao Zhu also laughed angrily: "You are not allowed to run. If I look at you for one more day, I will suffocate you to death?"
Come out of Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Bai said to Zhu Biao: "Brother, can you show me that list?"
Just now Zhu Biao said that he was afraid that Lao Zhu would become angry after seeing Zhu Bai's words and get aggravated, so he copied the list himself.
Zhu Biao didn't know what Zhu Bai wanted to do, so he handed him the list.
Zhu Bai glanced at it and was secretly amused: "No wonder Lao Zhu has that expression."
Li Shanchang, the best at flattering, didn't even say hello.
Not only that, even Li Qi, who had just become the prince-in-law, did not fall into the trap.
It's a bit strange indeed.
No matter how deaf Li Shanchang is, there is no way he could miss such important news.
For several days, Zhu Bai paid special attention to whether there were any condolences from Li Shanchang and Li Qi in the album.
Still not.
It's strange. Could it be that Li Shanchang did it on purpose?
It's impossible. The eunuch told this matter in front of all the ministers in the morning.
When Lao Zhu heard Zhu Biao read out the list of greetings from today's post, his face became almost invisible again.
Zhu Biao didn't know why.
But Zhu Bai knew very well how Lao Zhu was feeling at the moment.
Also, Lao Zhu regards Li Shanchang as a good friend and takes care of him so much on weekdays, which is almost a bit protective.
It turned out that Lao Zhu was ill, but Li Shanchang didn't show any signs. Anyone would feel disappointed.
Lao Zhu's illness was protracted, and it took him five days to get out of bed, and then he resumed his morning routine.
As soon as Lao Zhu resumed reading the memorials, Zhu Bai began to go out every day again.
Unless Lao Zhu insisted on forcing him to stay in the imperial study room.
This morning, he didn't come.
The ministers didn't know whether they were sincere or not, and they all burst into tears.
"God bless me Ming Dynasty, the emperor finally recovered. I am so worried about the emperor."
"The emperor must take care of his dragon body. The country cannot live without a king for a day."
"Your Majesty, you can't work too hard. You should pay attention to your recovery in the future. Nothing is as important as the dragon body."
Lao Zhu smiled and nodded, and waited for the ministers to calm down before saying: "These days, thanks to all the dear ministers fulfilling their duties, the court can run normally."
Then the minister knelt down again and said: "Fortunately, it has only been three or five days, and there has been no major problem. It is also the prince's wisdom."
"The emperor is the backbone of the world. Only under the leadership of the emperor can the Ming Dynasty achieve long-term stability and peace in the world."
Lao Zhu felt extremely comfortable being held up. He glanced around the hall and found that Li Shanchang and Li Qi were not there again.
According to the rules, today is the dynasty. The grand master and the prince-in-law do not have to go to court for their idle duties.
But he has just resumed his duties in court. Even if these people are just pretending, shouldn't they come out and show off?
This Li Shanchang is really going too far.
Liu Bowen waited silently for everyone to finish flattering Lao Zhu, then he went out and knelt down and said: "I will risk my life to remonstrate with the emperor again. I beg the emperor to issue an edict. If the emperor lasts for a hundred years, the prince will immediately ascend the throne as emperor, so as not to be
The villain took advantage of the loophole."
Lao Zhu frowned slightly: There are three pieces of information here. First, Liu Shengun said, this is the second time he has said this, but why don’t we remember the first time he mentioned it? It’s so big
It is impossible for us not to remember the incident. It can only be that when we were sick, he got a discount and was suppressed by Zhu Biao and Zhu Bai and did not report it.
Second, everyone has actually thought that we might not be able to afford it this time, and they are all secretly preparing.
Third, in Liu Bowen's mind, there is a villain in this palace who can threaten Zhu Biao's status. Could it be that he is talking about Zhu Bo?
Everyone only regards me as the emperor. Only Zhu Bai and Zhu Biao considered my mood and did not think that I would burp.
Lao Zhu felt very uncomfortable in his heart and replied calmly: "We will discuss this matter later."
Liu Bowen still wants to talk.
Lao Zhu said calmly: "This time, Biao'er and Lao Twelve saved your life again. Just be content."
If Zhu Biao and Zhu Bai had reported the truth at that time, he would not only have been very angry and sad, but he might have become seriously ill, and he would have killed Liu Bowen before that.
The ministers could smell the faint murderous intent in Lao Zhu's tone and did not dare to say anything.
After the court was over, Zhu Biao hurriedly stepped forward and said to Lao Zhu: "Father, the book that Mrs. Liu wrote is in the imperial study. I was afraid that you would make you angry, so I kept it there and didn't show it to you."
Lao Zhu patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, we know."
Lao Zhu sat down behind the desk in the imperial study room again, feeling refreshed and calmed down from his anxiety over the past few days.
In fact, his mood was a bit complicated, and he was afraid that Zhu Biao would not be able to do it well and cause a big mess.
Zhu Biao is very good at handling things, so what else do you need him to do?
He asked Erhu: "What are Li Qi and Li Shanchang doing these days?"
Erhu said: "The prince-in-law and the princess were inseparable as newlyweds. They stayed in the house all day. Mr. Li, there doesn't seem to be anything special."
Haha, newlyweds are like glue and paint?
Princess Lin'an knew that Queen Thomas greeted him.
