Ru Chang had no doubt about the Hongwu Emperor's abilities and shrewdness, but he also had no doubt about the Yingshi Emperor's abilities and cunning. What the Hongwu Emperor could do, the Yingshi Emperor could also do.
Zhu Yunying waved his hand and said, "The attendant can step down now. We still need to think these things over carefully."
At this point, Ru Chang had no choice but to take his leave, feeling extremely uneasy. He had never been able to fathom the emperor's thoughts, not in the past, and not now.
Watching Ru Chang leave, Zhu Yunying smiled and said, "Big companion, do you think it's a bit harsh and ungrateful of us to tease our companion like this?"
Wang Chengen immediately flattered and said, "It is Ru's good fortune that Your Majesty trusts her so much. I have been serving Your Majesty for a long time, and I know that Your Majesty would not be so witty if you did not trust someone."
See, that's the art of speaking. It was clearly Zhu Yunying who was playing Ru Chang, but Wang Chengen said it as if Zhu Yunying trusted Ru Chang and that's why he gave her such treatment, which was a blessing, and Ru Chang should be grateful even if she knew.
Zhu Yunying smiled but didn't say much. After all, Wang Chengen would never say anything bad about Zhu Yunying; he would only flatter him in various ways.

But the most important thing right now is, of course, reviewing the endless stream of memorials!
