Chapter 595
The face that appeared behind the crack in the door was naturally Lu Wei.
He took two steps at a time and walked to Zhu Di's side, brushed off the thick layer of snow on Zhu Di's body, and then reached out to help him up.
He muttered, "Your Highness, Prince of Yan, why are you doing this? Come in and warm yourself by the fire, or you'll freeze yourself."
Zhu Di raised his eyes and looked forward. Although his cheeks were almost numb from the cold, a barely perceptible smile appeared in the depths of his eyes: Lu Wei was just an employee. Without Zhu Yuanzhang's permission, he would not dare and would not be able to get himself in.
he knows.
The emperor finally softened his heart.
After kneeling in the ice and snow for so long, his hands and feet were naturally completely frozen and unable to exert any strength. Zhu Di could only let Lu Wei help him up and stumble into the house...
The best charcoal was burning in the house, making it as warm as spring.
Warmth came towards him. Zhu Yuanzhang, wearing a brocade robe, was sitting by the stove reading a newspaper.
After so much effort, they finally met. Even though he had a lot of thoughts in his mind, Zhu Di knew that he was able to come in today because of his father's kindness. If it were someone else, he wouldn't even blink an eye even if you were frozen into an ice stick and kneeled outside.
So at this time, we must perform what needs to be performed.
Thinking of this, Zhu Di immediately moved his wrinkled and pale lips and said weakly: "Dad, are you okay? Don't be sad anymore."
Hear this.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face showed a mixture of emotions.
He put down the newspaper in his hand and ordered, "Lu Wei, quickly give the fourth brother a cup of hot tea, then help him to the couch and massage his hands and feet."
The eldest brother was gone before, and the second and third brothers were gone not long ago. How could Zhu Di's self-torture tactic not work?
Human rationality is limited. Seeing his fourth son frozen like this in the snow and ice, Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally worried and had no time to think about so many complicated things - this was the result Zhu Di had anticipated in advance, and it was also the reason why he dared to take such an attitude.
Especially the first thing Zhu Di said when he came in was to persuade him to mourn... He directly grasped Zhu Yuanzhang's soft spot and weakness.
He didn't want to see Zhu Di just to torture him, but he didn't want to ruin Zhu Yunhuan's plan. He also hoped that Zhu Di's ambition could be slowly worn away by his eldest grandson himself, so that he could save his life.
Zhu Di felt his body go numb, but luckily he recovered quickly and admitted his mistake directly, "I was reckless and made you worry..."
He snorted coldly, half distressed and half angry: "Why not just let you freeze to death outside? Three of you have already died anyway, and I, an old man, can bear one more death!"
Zhu Di knew that this was a lie. His father would rather watch anyone die than his own son. In the past two years, his second brother had committed so many heinous crimes, but he still kept his life and his title.
He glanced at the newspaper Zhu Yuanzhang placed on the table.
The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, and he became more certain that his self-torture plan was successful: he read the newspaper from the morning to the afternoon, and it was obvious that he was absent-minded, otherwise he would have finished it long ago.
However, Zhu Di knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was a suspicious person, so he immediately explained: "Since the tragic news of my second and third brothers came, I have heard that you have been depressed these days and even refused to see your son. I am really worried and only want to... comfort you."
This was said for two reasons: one was to explain, the other was to test - to mention the deaths of Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang to see how his father would react.
Zhu Di's words reminded Zhu Yuanzhang that he was now heartbroken over the deaths of his two sons...
