Zhu Gaoxu knew his whole day's itinerary, and Chen Kan was not surprised at all.
After all, he is the one who wants to seize the direct line. It is just a normal operation to arrange an informant next to his biggest competitor's own son.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m talking about Zhu Zhanji!
Zhu Gaoxu asked, Chen Kan was too embarrassed to pretend to be dead. Besides, there was no need to deny this kind of thing.
Then he cupped his hands and said, "Go back to your lord, I am on duty today. It is just a coincidence to escort the two highnesses out of the palace to play."
"Just the right moment?"
Zhu Gaoxu's voice suddenly became louder.
Chen Kan said: "Yes!"
A sneer appeared on Zhu Gaoxu's face, and he mocked: "We are all going to be a family, and you still treat me as a fool, right?"
Chen Kan felt that he and Zhu Gaoxu had made it very clear last time in the Jinyiwei Prison.
It was impossible for him to participate in the whirlpool of seizing the direct descendants.
Gradually, the thought of being conciliatory disappeared from his mind. He looked directly at Zhu Gaoxu and said, "The prince is joking. A minister is a minister, and marrying the royal family will not make him a king."
"boom!"
Zhu Gaoxu was furious, slapped his hand on the table, and shouted sternly: "Chen Kan! Are you determined to be my enemy?"
How could Zhu Gaoxu not understand Chen Kan's metaphor?
He was obviously talking about himself, but in fact he was clearly telling him that no matter how much he jumped up and down, that position would never belong to him.
How could he not be angry in the face of such a provocation.
Chen Kan was still neither humble nor arrogant. He held up his hands and said, "I don't understand what the prince means. I have said it many times. I am just a small person trying to survive in the cracks. I don't dare to be enemies with anyone, and I don't want to be enemies with anyone."
"You fart, what benefit did that fat man from Peiping give you to defend him so loyally?"
When Chen Kan saw Zhu Gaoxu's eyes that were about to get angry, he knew that his words were in vain.
Chen Kan didn't bother to explain too much. He stood up and said casually: "If there is nothing wrong with the prince, I will leave first."
"Zheng~"
As soon as Chen Kan stood up, two sharp long knives were placed on his neck.
Chen Kan was angry.
Then he sat back down again.
As the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes!
As the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under the eaves.
Chen Kan bets that his neck is definitely not as hard as a knife.
"Your Majesty, I think I have made it very clear that I have no interest in fighting for the crown prince. I would like to ask your Majesty to show your respect and stop embarrassing me, okay?"
Chen Kan is really unhappy. You said there are so many people in the capital, Li Jinglong, Xu Jingchang, etc. If that doesn't work, why don't you try to win over high-ranking officials like Zhu Nengqiu Furu Yu?
Why do you have to catch me alone and make things difficult?
Is this interesting?
Let me ask you, is it interesting?
If the two long knives were not too eye-catching, Chen Kan really wanted to rush in front of Zhu Gaoxu, grab him by the collar and eat him like two big knives.
Hearing Chen Kan's almost pleading words, Zhu Gaoxu said angrily: "You said you were unwilling to participate in the fight for the heir apparent, so why did you protect my great nephew to visit Xuanwu Lake today?"
Chen Kan was stunned.
Are you sick?
Who told you that I was going to protect Zhu Zhanji?
I'm obviously here to protect the cute girl with big eyes, okay?
I'm not willing to bring that light bulb to Little Fatty.
Chen Kan said helplessly: "I have already said that it is just a coincidence. Besides, today I am serving as the bodyguard of Her Highness Princess Chang Ning."
"Wei Chen has asked my teacher to propose marriage to His Majesty. Isn't it that the prince doesn't know about it?"
Chen Kan looked at Zhu Gaoxu suspiciously.
What the hell does he mean? What he does in a day is none of his business.
Why was he reacting so hard?
Hiss~
Thinking of a possibility, Chen Kan's pupils suddenly widened.
If that were possible, everything would make sense!
Zhu Gaoxu obviously didn't believe a word of Chen Kan's sophistry.
He stood up, came to Chen Kan's side, calmed down, and said patiently: "If you help my brother, he won't be grateful to you."
Hearing this, Chen Kan sneered and said nothing.
He cursed in his heart: "I said it as if you would be grateful to me if I help you."
Zhu Gaoxu seemed not to have seen Chen Kan's expression and continued: "You should know how my father came to power. Logically speaking, he should not hesitate to make that damn fat man the prince. Only in this way can he block the world. Everyone agrees. But now, that position is undecided, don’t you understand?"
Chen Kan raised his eyebrows and said, "What does this have to do with me?"
Zhu Gaoxu did not answer and continued: "He is obese and greedy. It is not just a day or two that my father hates him."
"And I, the king, have repeatedly made military exploits in the battle of Jingnan, and I am even more consistent in the army. Who is strong and who is weak, everyone in the world can judge for themselves."
"In terms of ability, military exploits, and reputation, I am not better than him in any aspect. He was just born a few years earlier. Why do you help him but not me?"
Chen Kan twitched the corner of his mouth, and he wanted to ask: "Aren't you embarrassed that you put so much money on your face?"
I dare not say it.
Chen Kan pondered for a while, looked at Zhu Gaoxu, whose eyes were red with excitement, and said slowly: "I am not an expert in this field, but I want to express my opinion."
Zhu Gaoxu's mood slowly calmed down and he responded calmly: "You say it!"
Chen Kan frowned and said thoughtfully: "After I carefully read your question, Prince, and after a long period of thinking..."
Zhu Gaoxu became excited again and asked: "How?"
Chen Kan spread his hands: "I haven't come to any conclusion. As I said just now, I am not an expert in this field."
"You dare to tease me, you are seeking death!"
Zhu Gaoxu was angry. He gasped and stared at Chen Kan, as if he was about to go berserk.
Chen Kan hurriedly pulled out a stool: "Your Majesty, sit down first and calm down."
"Chen Kan, do you know that I am almost out of patience?"
"You have rejected me again and again. What kind of ecstasy soup did that damn fat man fill you with?"
There was no other purpose in teasing Zhu Gaoxu, it was just to vent his bad temper.
By the way, get rid of his bad habit of picking up people on the street when he has nothing to do.
Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu was about to go berserk, Chen Kan also realized that he couldn't go too far.
He shouted quickly: "Your Majesty, listen to me."
"Um?"
Zhu Gaoxu gasped for breath, and when he saw Chen Kan's serious look on his face, he thought Chen Kan had finally changed his mind.
He immediately sat down on the bench and asked unkindly: "What do you want to say?"
Chen Kan said seriously: "Your Majesty, it's getting late now. I really have something to do. How about we talk another day."
"Ah~"
Zhu Gaoxu roared, he was really angry.
His chances of winning were so great, so why didn't Chen Kan want to help him?
Why exactly?
