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

Chapter 61 Showing off in the Imperial Study: I'm the Regent, I'm in charge!

Zhu Gaoxu nodded: "Yes, yes, that's exactly what I was thinking."

"This won't do, this won't do!"

Zhu Gaochi was terrified: "Twenty thousand taels of silver! That's twenty thousand taels of silver!"

"Second brother, you're trying to kill me!"

"Yes, yes, I can't gather enough either, Second Brother, my dear Second Brother, please don't let us down." Zhu Gaosui also chickened out.

Moreover, you take 10,000 taels of silver, and we each take 20,000 taels of silver. How can you be so optimistic?

"Second brother, if you can refine pills and sell them for a thousand taels of silver, then you can sell them for ten thousand taels of silver. You can't go against us like this," Zhu Gaochi said.

"What are you talking about? Do you think you can just concoct pills like that?" Zhu Gaoxu rolled his eyes at him.

"Alright!"

Zhu Gaoxu said, "This matter is decided!"

"I'm giving you two days. You have two days to hand over all the silver, not a single penny less!"

"But, but..." Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui, unusually on the same side, wanted to say something, but a single look from Zhu Gaoxu silenced them.

"Snotty little thing!" he shouted.

"Your Highness, I'm here." Upon seeing this, Little Snot also hurriedly came over.

"Show them out!" Zhu Gaoxu said.

"Yes, yes!" Little Snot nodded and said to the Crown Prince and Prince Zhao, "Your Highness, Prince Zhao, please."

The two were helpless. They wanted to say something more, but Zhu Gaoxu glared at them again.

"Damn it!"

"Are you leaving or not?"

Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui were so frightened that they trembled.

For some reason, the second brother's gaze sent chills down their spines.

They were immediately kicked out by Zhu Gaoxu.

"How could that second brother be so terrifying?" Zhu Gaochi said with lingering fear, "His eyes just now were truly terrifying; even I was startled."

Zhu Gaosui nodded in agreement: "Yes, it seems that besides alchemy, the second brother has other things going on that we don't know about."

"Yes, that's probably why our father didn't let him go to Yunnan to take up his fiefdom," Zhu Gaochi said.

…………

Inside the Fengtian Hall, after Zhu Gaoxu finished doing these things, he couldn't help but give a cold laugh.

"Boss, third brother, please don't blame me. To put it bluntly, all of this is because of you. It was you who dealt with me before."

At this point, he took a deep breath.

"However, now that this matter is resolved, it's time for me to leave the capital."

"After all, there's nothing left to miss in this capital city," Zhu Gaoxu said.

He could leave at any time, but he did this now to give the Yongle Emperor a good jolt before he left.

This is also to vent his anger!

After all, in history, His Highness the Prince of Han was seriously harmed by the old man.

"That's right, I can do it this way..."

Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have thought of something.

He couldn't help but smile.

"Since we're leaving anyway, this isn't a bad idea."

With that thought in mind, he quickly slipped back to the Prince of Han's residence.

Not only did he return, but he also summoned Huangfu Yun.

"Your Highness, is there anything else you require?" Huangfu Yun asked.

"Don't just stand there, move all my usual weapons, like my broadsword, to the study in the Fengtian Hall."

"Regardless, the old man has appointed me as regent, so of course I won't miss this opportunity," Zhu Gaoxu said. "Besides, now that I'm regent, where else should I put all these weapons if not in the Imperial Study?"

"I am the regent, and my word is law!"

Princess Consort of Han said worriedly, "But wouldn't it be bad if this matter reached His Majesty's ears?"

"What if we anger His Majesty..."

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said, "Don't panic."

"As long as I'm here, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Princess Han felt relieved; she still trusted her husband.

…………

In one afternoon, this Prince of Han even brought all his weapons, whether spears or blades, into the study.

Faintly, one could still hear the sound of the King of Han wielding his sword.

This matter caused an uproar on the spot within an afternoon.

This is no small matter; both the officials and the emperors already know about it.

…………

Inside the Wenyuan Pavilion.

"This...this is outrageous!" Yang Rong said. "This Prince of Han, who is overseeing the country, made us wait all noon, and now, all afternoon, he's even left his weapons for battle in the Imperial Study?"

"Is he acting as regent or waging war?"

It has to be said that Yang Rong was in a real bind at that moment.

"His Majesty appointed him as regent? Are you sure you're not mistaken?" At this moment, Yangpu also began to add insult to injury.

He was feeling terrible.

After all, this incident has put their cabinet in a difficult position.

However, at this moment, the Grand Secretary, Yang Shiqi, remained completely silent, unable to utter a single word.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Yang Rong asked.

"What's the rush?" Yang Shiqi said. "This matter has been going on since morning until this afternoon. Haven't you noticed something?"

"Um?"

Both of them were taken aback. Yang Rong asked, "Tell me, what's wrong?"

"Has there been any movement from His Majesty's side since this morning?"

"this……"

Yang Shiqi said, "If His Majesty isn't in a hurry, why should we be?"

"What we need to do now is wait."

…………

Jiming Temple.

"Snapped!"

Zhu Di went berserk.

"That scoundrel! This morning he was strolling around outside the Fengtian Hall wearing his python robe, and by the afternoon he'd even put his weapons, which he used in battle, in the Imperial Study?"

"That brat, why doesn't he just fly to the moon?"

Zhu Di was almost always furious.

His eyes seemed to be blazing with fury.

Upon seeing this, Yao Guangxiao smiled slightly.

His laughter was very loud.

"Hey old monk, you still have the mood to laugh?" Zhu Di glared at him.

If it were someone else, they definitely wouldn't have the guts.

Yao Guangxiao said, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry."

"Didn't you realize that His Highness the Prince of Han did this on purpose?"

"You previously appointed him as regent, but he feigned illness and refused to go."

"Now that he's going to oversee the country, he's doing this. What does that tell us?" Yao Guangxiao said, "It tells us one thing: this Prince of Han is deliberately trying to anger you."

"Damn it, damn it!" Zhu Di broke down: "No, no, I have to go see!!"

"Your Majesty, please don't be hasty," Yao Guangxiao said. "I have something else to say."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Di glanced at Yao Guangxiao.

"Say it, what do you want to say?"

Yao Guangxiao said, "Although this prince is being ridiculous, he does have some skills."
