Chapter 365 Parents’ Beloved Son

Zhu Di looked at the prince deeply. He didn't like him very much, but he had to admit that among his three sons, only he was suitable for this position. People said that he had to establish a prince because he loved his grandson. In fact, it was not true. The prince's own advantages were also key.

But at the same time, his feelings towards the prince are complicated. This is probably the fate of every superior and heir. Both sides have no way to trust each other and can only be on guard.

Zhu Di also knew that he had been too strict with the crown prince over the years, but in his heart he treated him as his future heir. He was too indulgent with his two younger sons because he knew clearly that he could not hand over the country to them.

"Dun Dun, just now I suddenly thought of you when you were a child..."

"Father, Agui is still here? Ahem..." When the prince heard what Zhu Di called him, his face immediately turned red as he was already a grandfather. He didn't care about etiquette and hurriedly interrupted Zhu Di.

Zhu Zhanji really wanted to hide for a while. He lowered his head and his hands suddenly became busy tidying up his sleeves.

"Agui, you go back first." Zhu Di almost forgot that his grandson was still here, but fortunately there were no outsiders here, oh, that's not right, Zhu Di suddenly looked at Wang Jinghong beside him.

Now Wang Jinghong is also lowering his presence. He didn't hear anything, but he seemed to have heard the nickname of "Your Highness the Crown Prince" from the late Queen many years ago.

When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was born, he was chubby. Later, his health was not very good, so His Majesty gave him this nickname, hoping that he would be stronger.

"Grandson, take your leave." Zhu Zhanji left immediately, leaving the father and son alone.

Zhu Di looked at Wang Jinghong again, and Wang Jinghong immediately took two steps at a time and went out.

"Ahem, I just..." Zhu Di also realized belatedly that he just...

After that, no one knew what the father and son talked about.

Zhu Zhanji just came out and saw Wang Jinghong coming out too.

"Wang Daban." Zhu Zhanji bowed.

"Your Highness," Wang Jinghong saw that he had no intention of leaving.

"Wang Daban, have you ever heard the Emperor call your father that before?"

"This... I only know that it is the Crown Prince's nickname. I heard the late Queen mention it before. Your Majesty... Your Majesty has always placed high hopes on the Crown Prince. He was often serious. This is the first time in all these years." Wang Jinghong was also quite surprised.

"So it's Wang Daban's first time too." Zhu Zhanji originally thought that this person who had accompanied the emperor for decades would know more, but he didn't expect that he didn't know either.

After Zhu Zhanji finished speaking, he left first.

The palace of the great grandson.

Zhu Zhanji told Hu Shanxiang about what happened today, and finally sighed: "I always thought that the emperor grandfather only liked my second uncle and third uncle, and didn't like my father. Until today, I vaguely felt that we were all wrong. Everyone only saw the emperor grandfather's suppression of my father, but unexpectedly, the emperor grandfather suppressed the prince but never deposed him. Although many people say that it is because of me, if the emperor grandfather really doesn't like me, he will directly skip my father and enthrone me. Although this sounds a bit unrighteous, but..."

"I understand what your highness means." Hu Shanxiang always felt that Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi, the father and son, actually had father-son affection, but being born in an imperial family, such affection was really rare.
