Dong Yun looked at Liu Chan with a strange expression in front of him, and for the first time he felt nervous in his heart.
As a minister determined to enforce strict laws, Dong Yun understood a truth from his father Dong He's teachings since he was a child.
That is, those who enforce the law should enforce the law impartially and conduct themselves upright!
Back then, I was even scolded or even punished by my father for being envious of foreign objects.
Since then, Dong Yun has strived to be fair and aboveboard in his work, and has never disdained those underhanded methods.
But Dong Yun is not a fool. Just because he doesn't bother to do it doesn't mean that he doesn't know that there are insidious villains and those treacherous methods in this world.
Regarding the prince of the Han Dynasty...Dong Yun still had a very good impression of Liu Chan.
As an official of the Prince's Palace, Dong Yun could be regarded as Liu Chan's confidant, and he knew his character and temper. Even those who were ministers in the same dynasty, he didn't know how much he had offended.
As for His Highness's lazy temper, he has to be reprimanded and remonstrated by himself almost every day. After such a long time, His Highness has always been good-hearted.
Although you will do it again soon...but after all, it is a good thing, Your Highness, to correct your mistakes after you know them!
And after so many years, no matter how excited he was when he spoke, His Highness has never made him blush, let alone said anything harsh to him.
Where can he find such His Highness?
But it was because of his understanding that Dong Yun knew that His Highness's temperament was too good.
He never seems to get angry with others, and he is more tolerant than blaming others...
Although a prince with such a character is excellent for his ministers, it is too dangerous for the prince himself.
Dong Yun understood this matter, but His Majesty was still there, the Prime Minister was still there, and they, the ministers of the Prince's Mansion, were still there. Dong Yun knew that as long as they were here, no one could let His Highness be controlled by people with ulterior motives.
But...it wasn't until this rumor spread in Jieyang County that Dong Yun really felt a sense of fear.
Although these rumors were specious, after they circulated among the people, they turned into how pitiful His Highness was and how he was bullied and persecuted.
Although this made the reputation of His Highness a little softer, it also allowed Dong Yun to discover the purpose of the other party.
They wanted to mess with Liu Chan's mind and make His Highness feel a little bit resentful towards some of the important ministers in the court and even towards His Majesty.
Dong Yun was not sure how his Highness got here step by step, but he knew that there were many loyal ministers and good generals in this court, and His Majesty cared about His Highness very much.
And the lessons learned from Liu Biao and Yuan Shao's mistakes are there. Who would abandon the eldest son of a concubine... No, he is now the legitimate eldest son, the crown prince of this great Han Dynasty?
Dong Yun understood very well, but he was very worried that Liu Chan did not understand. If Liu Chan really had some doubts in his heart, even if his highness fell into the hands of Sun Quan in the future, or returned to the Chengdu court.
This is not a good thing for the Han Dynasty or the entire court.
Dong Yun's face became a little gloomy, and when he looked at Liu Chan, his expression was even more hesitant to speak. He even opened and closed his mouth to speak many times, as if... he was trying hard to find a way to change everything.
But I don’t know how to speak.
Just when Dong Yun was about to break out in a cold sweat, Liu Chan finally smiled at Dong Yun.
"The rumors in this city... Gu Zizi knows about it.
I really feel ashamed of my love for the people of Jieyang. In fact... it's actually quite good to be alone in the court.
hey-hey..."
"Your Highness, you must not think like this. The love and care that Your Majesty and the Prime Minister show towards Your Highness is... eh?"
After hearing Liu Chan's words, Dong Yun instinctively wanted to explain, but halfway through the words, Dong Yun suddenly reacted.
Looking at Liu Chan in front of him, and then thinking about what Liu Chan just said, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
In the end, it was the doubt on Liu Chan's face that woke him up. With a bit of disbelief and a bit of surprise, Dong Yun asked again.
"What your Highness just said...is it true?"
“Of course it’s true!
Being alone in Chengdu, I had good food and drink, and there were beautiful maids serving me in the mansion. I had no worries about food, clothing, and many toys.
I never cared about whether I had rights or not.
If I can let Gu eat, drink and have fun every day... then I will be very satisfied!
And... Gu He had ever coaxed Xiu Zhao? "Liu Chan couldn't help but frown after hearing Dong Yun's words. After saying this, he couldn't help mumbling to himself.
"Even if Gu wants to fool you...you are not so easily deceived by Gu."
The voice of these words was very small, but it happened to reach Dong Yun's ears, making Dong Yun's heart skip a beat.
Looking at Liu Chan's face, the tension on his face finally calmed down.
"What His Highness said is that Your Highness will never lie to others." Dong Yun felt relieved, then bowed slightly to Liu Chan, and then stood up to leave.
But when he reached the door of the room, Dong Yun suddenly stopped.
"What His Highness just said is absolutely true. When he was in Chengdu, His Highness was indeed too presumptuous.
Your Highness is the crown prince of the Han Dynasty, how can you be so obsessed with pleasure?
I just want to give His Highness a heads-up about what happened today. Your Highness should also get enough rest during this period.
From today on, His Highness must continue to process official documents, and the two great scholars who are teaching Jieyang Guizhou will continue to return to His Highness for two hours every day.
Not for anything else, just to prevent His Highness from neglecting his studies! "
After Dong Yun finished speaking, he turned around and left. This time he walked very cleanly. Liu Chan, who was behind him at this time, looked at Dong Yun's back, and his appearance was exactly the same as Dong Yun just now.
It's so hard to say it, but you want to say it but can't. It's so similar...
But it wasn't until Dong Yun left Liu Chan's sight with his head held high that Liu Chan couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the helplessness on his face turned into a chuckle.
Beside him, Ma Di, who was also responsible for inquiring about the news, couldn't help but walk to Liu Chan's side.
"Your Highness, the news in the city..."
"Haven't I already told you that Gu is not that pitiful? These Guizhou leaders are still too kind-hearted."
"...Your Highness is really not worried..."
"What are you worried about?" Liu Chan looked at Ma Su beside him and chuckled, "You don't have to worry, You Chang. Gu has long known that there are people silently supporting you along the way.
But... Gu is even more convinced that Gu is safe! "
"...why?"
"Because now the great man still has his father and the prime minister!"
