Zhu Zhanyan simply filled his stomach and left, he just didn't plan to stay longer because of the hunger in his stomach on a whim.

Dog meat is good, but he doesn't eat much, firstly because he has dogs himself, and secondly, the bloody scene on the grassland still has an impact on him, so he has no appetite for meat for the time being.

However, dogs are one of the six animals in this era, and they are the most common meat, plus it is summer, and there are not many mutton, let alone beef, so you can only choose dog meat.

However, radish mixed with white melon is good, he eats a lot, and he also likes the lettuce soup.

After eating and drinking, Zhu Zhanyan first went back to the Han Palace, and after reporting his safety to his mother, he only stayed for dinner, and then returned to Zhuangzi outside the city.

First, because he was more or less used to living there, and secondly, he had to leave quickly before his father came back, otherwise he would not be able to leave.

Back in the familiar Zhuangzi, Zhu Zhanyan first settled the blue and white dog, and then ran directly back to the room, collapsed on the bed and fell asleep.

The march road is understood by everyone who knows it.

But at the same time, the palace was not so calm.

This has just returned to the palace, and the reward or something must not be decided so quickly, so Zhu Di first feasted the generals of the northern expedition, and did not let everyone go back until dusk.

It's just that not all of them went back.

Spring and Palace, side hall.

Chunhe Palace is actually the East Palace, which is the residence of the prince, and the Wenhua Hall in front of the Chunhe Palace is the place where the prince works, and the two are not the same place, nor are they the same.

"Your Highness, you must be on guard!"

Hu Guang looked eagerly at Zhu Gaochi, who was as steady as Mount Tai in front of him, if it weren't for the disparity in identity, he probably would have to shake Zhu Gaochi's shoulder while shouting in his ear.

However, judging from Zhu Gaochi's body type, it is difficult to see.

"Youzi, what do you think?" Zhu Gaochi did not answer Hu Guang, but looked at Jin Youzi on the side.

"Wechen agrees with Everbright's opinion."

Although there were some suspicions of harmony, Jin Youzi still agreed with Hu Guang's opinion.

Unlike Yang Rong, he didn't even come.

Thinking of this, Hu Guang felt dissatisfied.

"Your Highness, after this battle, King Han's position in the hearts of the generals has become more stable, who can say for sure what it will be like in the future?"

Seeing that Zhu Gaochi was still a little hesitant, Hu Guang hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.

"Your Royal Highness, in this northern expedition, His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson's performance is not very conspicuous, on the contrary, looking at the prince of Han, although everything he did was tyrannical, it was extremely in line with the thoughts of the generals."

"In addition, His Majesty also seems to have some agreement with this method of directly cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, if you don't prevent it, then the prince of Han will ...... in the future."

Speaking of this, Hu Guang still stopped.

He's already said a lot of things that shouldn't be said, but it has to be something.

Some words are fine, and even Zhu Gaochi will stand up and help him say a few good words, but if some things are said, then no one can save him.

When the time comes, don't say it's helpful to say good things, it's good if Zhu Gaochi doesn't come up and step on two feet.

You must know that no matter how far away and friction there is, that family is still a family, although he Hu Guang is a subordinate official of the East Palace, he is an outsider no matter how he says.

"Okay, I see." Seeing this, Zhu Gaochi nodded and gave the two of them a reassuring look.

"It's not early, although the old man has already rested, but after all, today is still the first day of the class teacher's return to the court, and there is a curfew outside, so it's better for you to go back early."

"Don't upset the old man then."

Hu Guang was a little unsure of Zhu Gaochi's thoughts, but what Zhu Gaochi said was also reasonable, so after he looked at Jin Youzi, the two bowed down at the same time and retired.

"Your Highness have a good rest, and the ministers will retire."

Looking at the figures of Hu Guangjin and Youzi leaving, Zhu Gaochi slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Did he listen to Hu Guang and Jin Youzi's words? The answer is yes.

But he listened, but not all, but half, maybe not even half.

There are some things that should be done and some things that cannot be done, and the dividing line between them may be very vague, but Zhu Gaochi has one thing, that is, he will never touch those vague things.

He will only do things that are qualitatively clear.

What's more, he is the crown prince and occupies a natural advantage, but at the same time, this also makes him can only be in a passive state for many, many times, in order to respond to all changes.

This may not seem like a good thing, but it is not necessarily a bad thing.

……

Outside the palace, the palace of the Han king.

"Where's Zhan Yan?"

As soon as Zhu Gaoxu returned home, the first thing he did was to look for his eldest son.

"After dinner, I left, and went to live in the Zhuangzi outside the city, saying that I would go to live in the morning and evening anyway, so it was better to go directly."

Princess Han's face was not very good, especially after King Han returned.

"Why did he go there again? Who else said he would have to go there sooner or later? Zhu Gaoxu frowned, a little unclear about his son's thoughts.

However, since the Northern Expedition, Zhu Gaoxu has never ignored the idea of his son, because he found that his son knows far more than he imagined.

Probably more than himself.

"Your Highness." Princess Han did not answer King Han's question because she couldn't, but she stood up and looked straight at her husband.

"The concubine doesn't know what you think, but Zhan Yan is the son of the concubine, if you can't, or don't want him to do something, get something, then the concubine is brave, please let this child go."

"This child has been weak and sick since he was a child, and the concubine looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally hoped that he would get better, but he was involved in it again."

"Although the concubine doesn't understand it very well, she knows that the child has no intention of that position."

"As the saying goes, a twisted melon is not sweet, the concubine hopes that you can let this child go, no matter how you say that he is also your son......"

The candlelight of the Han Palace's mansion was lit until midnight, and no one knew what had happened here, and perhaps only the attendants of the Han Palace's mansion had the most right to speak.

But they also don't know anything.

However, there are some things that are known to many people.

With the arrival of the curfew, the Zhao Wangfu also closed the door, but before the door closed, a person entered the Zhao Wangfu through the side door.

"His Royal Highness Qiqi, His Royal Highness the King of Han has gone back, and everyone else is normal, only Hu Guang and Jin Youzi, two scholars, have not come out."

"yes, got it." Zhu Gaosui, who was sitting in the chair, squinted his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

"The villain quits." Seeing that there was no follow-up, the man also retreated with a lot of acquaintance.

In the quiet night, the clear water of Ying Tianfu was slowly stirred, and the original clear pond was also muddled by various desires.

No one knows what the future holds, and no one knows when this stirred vortex will stop, and what it will look like when it does.
