Chapter 49 This old man ate the Rejuvenation Pill, and now he wants to eat the Mighty Pill?
Zhu Di paced back and forth in the main hall, his mind also quite concerned about this so-called "powerful pill."
Clearly, the Embroidered Uniform Guard truthfully informed Zhu Di about everything that happened at the Prince of Han's residence.
"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived," Little Snotty said as he approached.
Zhu Di exclaimed excitedly, "Send him to see me immediately! Send him to see me right now!!"
Zhu Zhanji walked in quickly.
"Grandson greets His Majesty." Zhu Zhanji quickly bowed.
"How was your day at the Prince of Han's residence?" Zhu Di asked.
"Not bad." Zhu Zhanji nodded.
Zhu Di looked at his grandson, Zhu Zhanji, and sized him up from head to toe.
"The 'power pill' that the second son gave me, isn't it pretty good?" Zhu Di suddenly asked.
Zhu Zhanji looked at Zhu Di in surprise: "Grandfather, you already knew?"
"Nonsense!" Zhu Di said irritably, "Do you really think my Embroidered Uniform Guard is just there to do nothing?"
Zhu Zhanji smiled awkwardly; he didn't know what to say.
"I've heard that after you took this super strength pill, you became incredibly strong. You not only lifted a water vat full of water, but you also lifted a cauldron weighing several hundred pounds?" Zhu Di said.
"Yes, this is all thanks to Second Uncle's Power Pill. His pills are really amazing." Zhu Zhanji nodded.
"You keep calling me 'Second Uncle' so affectionately," Zhu Di said sourly.
"Your grandson wouldn't dare!" Zhu Zhanji said.
Zhu Di grasped Zhu Zhanji's hand, and his eyes darted around.
"Did he only give you one of these powerful pills?" Zhu Di suddenly asked.
Zhu Zhanji naturally understood what his imperial grandfather meant.
"My second uncle gave it to me and told me to take it immediately. As for any extra pills, it seems there weren't any left!" Zhu Zhanji could only say this, and what he said was the truth.
That kid!
Zhu Di was very envious. He saw that his eldest grandson had such superhuman strength, and he wanted it too.
After all, this super-strength pill can make people incredibly powerful.
As an emperor who could be built on horseback, if he took this powerful pill, he would become incredibly strong.
On the battlefield, they were invincible!
"Zhanji."
"Our good grandson!"
Zhu Di grabbed Zhu Zhanji's hand: "You brat, go to your second uncle's place tomorrow and try to get another Vitality Pill."
"If you can do that, Grandpa will give you whatever you want."
Zhu Zhanji had not expected his grandfather to react so strongly.
"Alright then, I'll give it a try tomorrow!" That was all Zhu Zhanji could say.
"Good grandson, good grandson!!" Zhu Di was deeply moved.
"Grandfather, why don't you personally issue an edict to give you one?" Zhu Zhanji suddenly asked.
"Don't you know what kind of person your second uncle is?"
"Besides," Zhu Di said, "we're having a fight right now, so this matter of needing the elixir has fallen into your hands. My dear grandson, you're my most beloved grandson. Don't let me down this time!"
"Then...then I'll give it a try," Zhu Zhanji could only say.
"Alright." Zhu Di smiled and said, "Grandson, go back and rest. Grandpa will be waiting for your good news tomorrow night."
Zhu Zhanji could only nod with a wry smile, because he himself lacked confidence and was even more unsure whether he could succeed.
…………
Time flies, and a night has passed.
Zhu Zhanji arrived at the Prince of Han's residence.
He stammered, as if he wanted to say something.
"Speak, judging from your expression, something must have happened," Zhu Gaoxu said.
From the moment this kid arrived, he knew something must have happened.
"Actually... it was my grandfather who summoned me. He asked me to come and ask you something," Zhu Zhanji said cautiously.
"It's probably related to the 'powerful pills' you took," Zhu Gaoxu said. "The old man wanted you to ask me if I had any more of those pills."
"Second Uncle, you are wise," Zhu Zhanji said. "I had no choice; this was the Emperor's will."
"Okay, wait a moment." Zhu Gaoxu changed the subject.
"Huh?" This time it was Zhu Zhanji's turn to be stunned. What was his second uncle going to do?
The next moment, he saw Zhu Gaoxu shouting at the Jinyiwei guards who were lying in wait.
"Get over here, all of you," Zhu Gaoxu said coldly.
The Imperial Guards looked at each other, not daring to step forward.
"If you don't come out, I'm going to start yelling at you."
Zhu Zhanji: ...
The Embroidered Uniform Guards: ...
Zhu Zhanji, in particular, felt a jolt of alarm. He knew that just a few days ago, his second uncle had verbally abused a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard to death.
This caused quite a stir.
It is said that Zhu Gaochi used extremely offensive language in his criticism.
Unable to withstand the pressure, the Imperial Guards stepped forward.
"You guys really are the best dogs around Emperor Yongle."
"You guys are really something!"
Zhu Gaoxu asked, "Did you tell His Majesty everything that happened yesterday?"
"this……"
The Imperial Guards all looked embarrassed.
They looked at each other, unsure how to answer Zhu Gaoxu's question.
"Then tell His Majesty, I don't have this 'power pill'."
"If you want it, figure it out yourself!"
Zhu Gaoxu said this, then looked at Zhu Zhanji and said, "You should go back and rest too. I'm not in the mood for alchemy today."
"Ah, Second Uncle...I..." Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth.
"Go back, come back tomorrow." Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand.
"Yes, yes..." Zhu Zhanji could only nod and leave.
"It's quiet now," Zhu Gaoxu said.
"My lord, is this the only one of these powerful pills?" the Princess Consort of Han asked.
"Not really, it's just that refining these pills is extremely difficult," Zhu Gaoxu said softly, his eyes darting around.
"Besides, even if I had this powerful pill, I wouldn't want to give it to His Majesty."
"After all, I painstakingly refined this pill. This old man has already taken one Rejuvenation Pill; does he want another one?"
"He's dreaming."
Princess Consort of Han was startled: "Be careful what you say! If what you just said reaches His Majesty's ears, it will be troublesome."
"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Zhu Gaoxu wasn't afraid now.
As he spoke, he glanced at the Imperial Guards.
"Go back and tell His Majesty that there was only one of these powerful pills left, and the Crown Prince has already eaten it."
"If Your Majesty wishes to obtain it, it may not be so easy."
Upon hearing this, the Imperial Guards looked at each other in disbelief.
This news reached Ji Gang's ears, and he immediately went to the Fengtian Hall.
At that moment, in the Fengtian Hall, he told Zhu Di about the matter.
Zhu Di's eyes flashed, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"Do you believe what this second son says?" Zhu Di asked, squinting his eyes.
"this……"
Ji Gang knew how to behave properly, so he didn't say anything.
One is the emperor, the other is a prince; no matter what he says, it's wrong.
"This kid has really made quite a few pills. First, there was the Rejuvenation Pill, and now there's the Mighty Strength Pill."
"It seems I must find a way to get one of these powerful pills from him to try."
