Dai Lun came to Zhu Zhanji with a serious face and found a chair to sit down.
Turning his head to look at Zhu Zhanji, who was slumped on the chair in despair, the anger in his heart was rising.
Seeing that Zhu Zhanji didn't respond for a long time, Dai Lun shouted: "Your Highness!"
Zhu Zhanji suddenly came back to his senses and found Dai Lun sitting in front of him. The anger on his face quickly turned into a bitter smile. He put his hands on the chair and sat up straight.
Many subordinate officials were standing at the door, looking worriedly into the room. Darren's sudden voice suddenly startled them. There were looks of fear on their faces, and they turned around and left.
Not only did Zhu Zhanji dislike Dai Lun, they also disliked the unkind Dai Lun very much. It's just that Dai Lun is His Highness's first son, and his official position is higher than all of them, so no one dares to mess with Dai Lun.
Darren opened his mouth and asked sternly. But seeing Zhu Zhanji's haggard face, he had to take back what he said.
He asked calmly: "His Royal Highness went to express his gratitude to the Emperor today. Could anything else have happened?"
He just went to express his gratitude to the emperor. Darren didn't believe what could happen.
Zhu Zhanji then recalled what he had to do today, but he did not expect to meet Han Du halfway. As a result, not only did he not go to thank the emperor, but he was also made upset by Han Du.
He lowered his head and shook his head, and Zhu Zhanji said with a bitter look on his face: "I met Han Du when I entered the palace alone today..."
Handu!
When Darren heard the name, he immediately tensed up and straightened his body involuntarily. He couldn't help twirling his beard with his left hand, seriously.
He asked: "What did he do to His Highness?"
When it comes to Han Du at this time, Dai Lun can understand without thinking that Zhu Zhanji's current appearance must be related to Han Du.
Zhu Zhanji sighed slightly and said: "I met him when I entered the palace, but... I had a conversation with him, which delayed me from entering the palace to express my gratitude."
Dai Lun's heart suddenly relaxed and his expression became relaxed, "It doesn't matter if it's delayed. Anyway, His Highness did it on the spur of the moment. If you don't thank me today, it will be the same if you go to see the Emperor tomorrow."
It would be great if that were the case...
Zhu Zhanji looked at Dai Lun with helpless eyes.
When Dai Lun saw it, his heart suddenly trembled, and he asked nervously: "Is Han Du making things difficult for His Highness?"
Zhu Zhanji nodded slightly, and then told him carefully what happened from beginning to end.
Although Zhu Zhanji has very complicated feelings towards Dai Lun, he is now at a loss. It would be good to have Dai Lun to help him with advice.
After hearing this, Darren was even more angry than before. He stood up suddenly and shouted unceremoniously: "The emperor agrees, but Handu doesn't allow it? Arrogant! Unbridled! It's simply lawless!!!"
"Does Han Du still have an emperor in his eyes!!!"
Zhu Zhanji looked at the angry and roaring Dai Lun, feeling very speechless and even a little dissatisfied. Whether Han Du doesn't take the emperor seriously is the emperor's business.
As long as the emperor doesn't want to pursue Han Du, it's hard for anyone to say anything. Even if he went to tell the emperor, the emperor might not be able to listen.
And Dai Lun didn't want to help him recruit academy students, but he was here worrying about whether Han Du had offended the emperor. It was simply
Missing the point.
"Mr. Dai, what we should be thinking about now is how to bring academy students to America, instead of discussing trivial matters like whether Han Du is right or wrong!"
"How can this be a trivial matter?" Dai Lun not only did not correct himself, but argued with Zhu Zhanji, "Han Du is a minister, but he speaks arrogantly. He even dares to disobey the emperor's will, what else does he not dare to do? of?"
Zhu Zhanji had no choice but to remind him: "Mr. Dai, Han Du did not say that he would disobey the will."
"Huh?" Dai Lun was stunned for a moment, "What do you mean by this, Your Highness? Didn't His Highness just say that Han Du did not allow His Highness to take away the academy students? Isn't he disobeying the order?"
Zhu Zhanji sighed, dropped his hands on both sides of the chair, and said very tiredly: "Han Du is such a smart man, he will not disobey the will."
"Since Han Du will not disobey the will, Your Highness has the emperor's decree in hand, then what else do you have to worry about?" Dai Lun frowned.
Zhu Zhanji shook his head secretly. Dai Lun had no problem with his talent, but he was too straight-tempered and didn't know how to change things. He was also too accepting of death and didn't understand the human heart.
Even if Han Du doesn't disobey the will, is there no way to stop him? If this is the case, it would be too much to underestimate Han Du.
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Zhanji continued: "Han Du is the vice president of the academy. He established the academy by himself and has been in charge of the academy for so many years. It is only easy for him to make us return without success. thing."
However, Dai Lun still didn't understand what Zhu Zhanji meant, and frowned deeply, "He is only the deputy judge, and the emperor is the judge of the academy. What reason does he have to stop something that the emperor has agreed to?"
If only things were that simple, Zhu Zhanji glanced at Dai Lun, shook his head and said: "Although the emperor is the academy judge, he has never been in charge of the academy. But Han Du is different, even if he is not in the academy At that time, he was the actual leader of the academy."
Zhu Zhanji also found out how much control Han Du had over the academy after careful inquiring. Even though Fang Xiaoru seemed to be in charge of the academy, there was nothing Han Du said that Fang Xiaoru didn't listen to.
Dai Lun thought about it seriously, "Your Highness, if Han Du doesn't know what's good and insists on stopping him, then we don't have to be polite to him. Didn't he say that the emperor agreed, but he didn't allow it? Then let's sue him in front of the emperor. What should I do with him?"
"I would like to see if he can say such a thing to the emperor!"
Dai Lun didn't believe that Han Du had the guts to say such a thing in front of the emperor. As long as he said it, no matter how kind the emperor was, he would probably be dissatisfied with Han Du.
"I have thought about this," Zhu Zhanji said with a heavy expression, "but later gave up on the idea."
Facing Han Du's aggressiveness, Zhu Zhanji would certainly not be polite to him. He really thought about running to the emperor to sue Han Du, but gave up after careful consideration.
"Why is this?" Dai Lun didn't think there was anything wrong with this approach. After all, Han Du was just a minister, and the emperor was using him to suppress him, so he was not afraid of him disobeying.
"If this matter alarms the emperor, it will appear to be very stingy." Zhu Zhanji was very confused. "And it may not be able to suppress Han Du, but it will make him look down on us."
"Even, maybe this is Han Du's
Purpose, maybe he is testing us! "
"Testing? Testing for what?" Darren didn't expect this at all and suddenly exclaimed.
But Zhu Zhanji keenly smelled a plan, "I don't know what he wants to test, but the more I think about it, the more likely it is!"
