At this moment, Lady Lü realized a serious problem: Zhu Yunwen seemed to have grown to a terrifying level without her even noticing.
Ever since Zhu fell seriously ill that night but woke up unharmed, everything has changed dramatically.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't seem to like his eldest grandson, Zhu Yunwen, that much.
Instead, he paid more attention to Zhu Yuntong, who was no longer as cowardly and timid as before. His speech problems were gone, and he became quick-witted and audacious.
He was completely different from the Zhu Yunwen of the past, like heaven and earth.
This made Lu realize that the problem was very serious and that her son was increasingly in a precarious situation.
Especially given the situation today, Zhu Yunwen hit her in the Eastern Palace.
She intended to use this as an excuse for Zhu Yunwen to tell Zhu Yuanzhang, and at the same time make Zhu Yuanzhang believe that the reason Zhu Yunwen killed Zhu Yuntong was because Zhu Yuntong disrespected his mother.
Despite having a well-thought-out plan with her, Zhu Yunwen ended up suffering a loss when it came to actually carrying it out.
Little did she know that Zhu Yuanzhang had no intention of listening to any explanation from Zhu Yunwen.
At this moment, in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, among his grandsons, only Zhu Yunwen was worthy of great use.
In Lady Lü's bedchamber, she gently wiped Zhu Yunwen's back with a towel. Zhu Yunwen slowly woke up, lying on the bed, wincing in pain.
At the same time, the anger in his eyes was undisguised, and he slowly spoke:
"Mother, I will make Zhu Yunwen pay a heavy price."
Lady Lü nodded, her tone rather sinister as she said:
“I know that the more this is the case, the more you need to reflect deeply and deal with it calmly. The current situation is becoming increasingly unpredictable, and your grandfather seems to have other ideas as well.”
In this situation, you need to appear patient on the surface, but secretly try to find ways to salvage the difficult situation. Once your injuries have healed, try to cultivate relationships with the civil officials privately.
After all, your imperial grandfather is old. As long as all the civil officials stand on your side, your imperial grandfather will surely be more cautious!
Zhu Yunwen nodded, then a murderous glint flashed in his eyes as he said:
"Damn Zhu Yunwen, how could such a drastic change have occurred? That good-for-nothing of the past has actually grown to this level. Could it really be because of that serious illness? Did it awaken his true potential?"
Lady Lü frowned, a hint of regret flashing in her eyes.
Why Zhu Yunwen suddenly fell seriously ill is perhaps only known to him and Zhu Yunwen.
But even when she was alone with Zhu Yunwen, she almost never mentioned this matter.
In their current predicament, they are already finding it difficult to move forward. If it were to become known that Zhu Yunwen's sudden illness was orchestrated by her, it would undoubtedly lead to even worse consequences.
Neither Zhu Yunwen nor Lady Lü slept that night, but Zhu Yunwen slept very soundly.
After all, one must be wary of potential assassinations along the way, but once at the palace, such matters can be relaxed somewhat.
After a good night's sleep, the next morning, the little palace maid hurriedly brought Zhu Yunwen water to wash his face and helped him wash and get dressed!
To be fair, Zhu Yunwen's taste was indeed quite good in the past; the palace maids he chose were all very beautiful.
The young palace maid became somewhat shy under Zhu Yunwen's gaze and gradually lowered her head, a scene that drew laughter from Zhu Yunwen.
Then, after straightening her robes, she headed out of the hall. Watching Zhu Yuntong's departing figure, the young palace maid said with some confusion:
"Your Highness seems to have undergone a complete transformation..."
Meanwhile, in the main hall of Fengtian Hall...
The civil and military officials had arrived early and stood in neat and orderly rows according to their respective positions.
However, since Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang had not yet arrived, everyone was chatting amongst themselves.
The civil officials were whispering among themselves about how Zhu Yunwen had been beaten the day before.
Clearly, these civil officials were not going to let this matter go during the morning court session.
The military officers, however, all had rather strange expressions.
According to the information they received, Zhu Yunwen was sent by Zhu Yuanzhang to carry out disaster relief work, and he performed exceptionally well, earning Zhu Yuanzhang's praise.
Zhu Yunwen, who went with them, was beaten by Zhu Yuanzhang... and the relationship between them is somewhat ambiguous.
The military officers all speculated whether Zhu Yuanzhang was going to select one of his grandsons to focus on cultivating.
If that were the case, the military officers would naturally hope that Zhu Yuanzhang would choose Zhu Yunwen.
The reasons have been explained before.
Among the military officers, the Chang brothers had the most radiant smiles.
Lan Yu was injured and became a sick cat recuperating at the mansion, unable to attend court.
He handed over all the things he usually handled, strictly following Zhu Yunwen's instructions, and tried his best to pull out his teeth, pretending to be a sick cat in order to protect himself.
With Lan Yu absent, many of the military officers in the court, including some with considerable ability, naturally began to have their own ideas.
While the officials were discussing the matter, the grandson of the emperor, Zhu Yunwen, gritted his teeth and walked up from outside the palace with some difficulty.
After Zhu Biao's death, Zhu Yuanzhang made him accompany him to the morning court sessions frequently.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang might have some issues with him now, Zhu Yunwen still shamelessly showed up for the morning court session.
His arrival immediately drew the attention of all the civil and military officials. The civil officials all stepped forward to inquire about his well-being, their eyes filled with concern.
