Although His Highness the Crown Prince has not forged imperial edicts over the years, he has certainly engaged in numerous acts of using imperial authority for personal gain. Ordinary people dare not question the Emperor Emeritus, because the Emperor Emeritus would undoubtedly protect the Crown Prince.
Zhu Ruyi was also delighted and said, "We've seen Father's calligraphy these past few days, and ours has become even more accurate! Brother, we've even improved our calligraphy to the point of being accurate!"
Little Zhu was even happier; he wouldn't have to worry about his studies anymore. He understood that some professors could tell his handwriting was bad, but they could only accept it. Of course, it would be even better if he could write more naturally.
After thinking for a moment, Little Zhu, the stamp-obsessed maniac, pulled out the Crown Prince's seal. "Master, if we use the seal, Father won't say anything, will he?"
Wang Chengen quickly said, "Your Highness, His Majesty will not blame us. You can make the decision on these matters."
Lian Qiongqiong was very excited. His Majesty was indeed like Li Bai and Su Dongpo, with a variety of poetic styles. Whether it was a poignant or a heroic style, he could write it with ease.
Little Zhu happily held the seal and said, "For the inscription, we'll use Father's real name. This was brought into the tomb by Great-Grandfather."

"It's alright, Father Emperor approves." Little Zhu thought for a moment, then added, "We can use '朕' (the imperial 'I') when writing memorials."
Lian Qiongqiong, standing nearby, was deeply moved. The Emperor Emeritus and His Majesty's favor towards the Crown Prince was truly unparalleled. The fact that the Crown Prince reviewed memorials already demonstrated unparalleled trust, and the fact that the prospective Crown Prince used the title "朕" (Zhen, meaning "I, the Imperial Emperor") further granted him even more power.
Of course, Lian Qiongqiong might not know that it was just Little Zhu writing according to the orders of Old Zhu and Zhu Yunying; he couldn't just use that word at will.
