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

Chapter 35 The King of Han's Plan: To Refine Pills, Sell Them for Big Profits, and Enrage Zhu D

Princess Zhao said, "That's possible. The King of Han has always been a righteous man who hates evil, but that's not the point. The point now is only one."

"What?"

"This time, you've angered the Prince of Han. Will he still refine the Rejuvenation Pill for us?"

Zhu Gaosui: ...

…………

Inside Jiming Temple.

"Your Majesty, isn't what you're doing a bit inappropriate?" Yao Guangxiao said, "He wants to go to Yunnan to assume his fiefdom, so why don't you just let him go?"

"Now look what's happened, we've even offended him."

"A living, breathing life was killed by his insults."

At this point, Yao Guangxiao put his hands together and then said a few words.

"Amitabha."

Zhu Di: ...

He looked at Yao Guangxiao with a strange expression.

"Stop chanting Amitabha Buddha here."

"Do you really believe you're a high-ranking monk, a true renunciant?"

"You old monk, what were you doing when you were planning the Jingnan Campaign?"

"What were you doing while you were using your dragon-slaying technique?"

Zhu Di began to unleash a frenzied attack.

Yao Guangxiao: ...

After a long while, Zhu Di rested for a bit.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Zhu Di turned to look at him.

Yao Guangxiao said with a smile, "You've already said everything that needed to be said, what else is there for me to say?"

"snort!"

Zhu Di began to sulk.

"No, no!"

After a moment, Zhu Di spoke: "I am the emperor, he is a prince, he is my son."

"Even if someone is angry, it's me who's angry!"

As he said this, his eyes darted around.

"Since he doesn't want to refine pills and only wants to curse people for fun, then very well, I know how to deal with him now." Zhu Di smiled.

Yao Guangxiao stood up, took the Buddhist prayer beads, and took several steps back.

"Old monk, what are you doing?" Zhu Di said irritably.

"Your Majesty, the last time you laughed like this was when you killed Fang Xiaoru," Yao Guangxiao said.

Zhu Di: ...

"You old monk," Zhu Di rolled his eyes.

…………

It is now noon.

At this moment, the Princess Consort of Han and Zhu Gaochi were eating their meal.

The Princess Consort of Han served food to Zhu Gaoxu.

"Husband, calm down, don't think too much about it."

Zhu Gaoxu said, "Don't worry, I've already made up my mind. I'll start refining pills this afternoon."

"And this time, I'm going to refine pills in bulk."

The Princess Consort of Han was taken aback: "Wholesale refining?"

"That's right, we'll refine them in bulk. Once all these pills are refined, we can sell them all. That way, it won't interfere with my cultivation, and I can make a fortune!" Zhu Gaoxu laughed.

"But my lord, these are all top-grade pills. The Rejuvenation Pill is very precious. Are you really going to sell it?" The Princess Consort of Han was somewhat reluctant.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't sell this Rejuvenation Pill in bulk. The pills I'm selling this time are the lowest grade, called Beauty Pills."

"Beauty pill?"

Zhu Gaoxu explained, "After taking this elixir, the user will become more beautiful. Ugly people will become beautiful, and beautiful people will become more beautiful."

"As for any other effects, that's all."

The Princess Consort of Han said, "According to you, this elixir can only make people more beautiful, and has no other effects?"

Zhu Gaoxu laughed and said, "Well, you could say that. I'll sell this beauty pill for ten taels of silver!"

"What!?"

Upon seeing this, the Princess Consort of Han was stunned: "Husband, it's not that I'm trying to criticize you, but isn't ten taels of silver too expensive?"

"That's exactly the effect I want. If we really make money, the person who will be the most restless will probably be the Yongle Emperor!"

He kept referring to the Yongle Emperor, which left the Princess of Han completely bewildered.

This made it seem as if he had severed his father-son relationship with Zhu Di.

Princess Consort of Han said, "Didn't His Majesty promise us that he would set up an alchemy pavilion? But there's still no sign of it."

"I can refine pills at home without his alchemy pavilion," Zhu Gaoxu said, still sulking.

"Anyway, I'm not leaving."

"They won't let me leave, huh? Fine then! I'll refine pills, make a fortune, and sell them all. I'll make that old bastard furious!"

Princess Consort of Han said, "Then, shall I also send over the elixir cauldron bestowed by His Majesty?"

"No need for that," Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile. "This alchemy cauldron is a free gift, so why not use it? Otherwise, I would have to spend time searching for it."

"He's using the alchemy cauldron the emperor gave him to make money, but he doesn't get a single penny. Do you think the old man wouldn't be angry?"

Princess Consort of Han: ...

Just then, someone from the palace arrived.

"His Majesty has decreed..."

Little Snot said, "Please let Your Highness, the Prince of Han, enter the palace."

"I'm busy, I'm eating, and I still need to refine pills after I finish eating," Zhu Gaoxu said.

"Your Highness, please don't make things difficult for me. If you are really busy, you can't possibly scold someone to death in just a few hours."

Zhu Gaochi and the Princess of Han: ...

"Why don't you go, my husband?" said the Princess Consort of Han.

Little Snot was deeply moved. "Princess Consort of Han, without you this time, I really couldn't have explained myself!"

Zhu Gaoxu's eyes flashed.

"His Majesty the Emperor is looking for you; perhaps there is something he truly needs to discuss. You should go quickly," said the Princess Consort of Han.

"Alright."

Zhu Gaoxu: "For the sake of my beloved concubine, I will go."

Little Snot said, "That would be even better, Your Highness, please!"

"No, no rush." ​​Zhu Gaoxu said, "I'll eat first. It's almost noon; how can I feel at ease if I don't eat?"

"But what about His Majesty..." Little Snot opened her mouth.

"What are you afraid of? If His Majesty really blames me, I will take the blame alone."

Zhu Gaoxu said, "Why don't you sit down and have some too?"

"This old servant dares not."

"Since you don't dare, you can wait here."

"Yes...yes..."

Little Snot waited there, and Zhu Gaoxu ate slowly and deliberately.

Zhu Gaoxu finished his meal quickly, and he was quite full.

"This meal was really filling!" Zhu Gaoxu smiled with satisfaction.

"Your Highness, shouldn't we be going?" Little Snotty said hurriedly, "We can't keep His Majesty waiting."

"Let's go!" Zhu Gaoxu was reluctant, but in the end he followed the snotty-nosed boy to the Fengtian Hall.

He wanted to see what the emperor wanted to see him about this time.

Time flew by, and the two arrived at the entrance of Fengtian Hall.

"Your Highness, His Majesty is waiting for you inside," said Little Snot.

"Okay, okay, I understand, I understand!"

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand, and then he walked step by step into the Fengtian Hall.

Zhu Di lay half-reclined on the dragon throne, his back to Zhu Gaoxu, seemingly asleep.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Gaoxu chuckled.

If you're sleepy, then go to sleep first. I'm leaving now.

Zhu Gaoxu turned around and prepared to leave.

"You've arrived?" Zhu Di's voice suddenly came. As he spoke, he turned around and was looking at Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaoxu paused slightly.

"Since you've come all this way, why are you leaving?" Zhu Di asked.

"I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't want to disturb you."
