After a pause, he shrugged and said, "It's really a bit confusing."

However… Although Zhu Quan felt that the contents of Zhang Yuchu's letter were all nonsense, he then looked at him with a firm gaze and said, "It's just that I feel that Taoist Zhang is a very stable person. What he said may not be aimless or without basis."

Zhu Quan, Zhang Yuchu and Zhang Yuqing were only superficial acquaintances.

But when they met in the palace before, he had asked them about the interpretation of Taoist Canon. After getting to know them, he had some understanding of Zhang Yuqing.

So now.

Although Zhu Quan felt that Zhang Yuqing's statement was outrageous.

But he did not deny it all hastily.

After all, although Zhu Quan was young and might lack experience in some aspects and not be as shrewd as others, he was not an overly impulsive or stubborn person.

We can see this from the fact that in history, although he had clearly received Zhu Di's promise to "divide the world equally", he was eventually stabbed in the back by Zhu Di and thrown into Nanchang. He was able to keep his composure and no longer obsessed with the so-called "half of the country". Instead, he became more and more focused on Taoism, classics, the Nine Schools, astronomy, medicine, divination, Huang-Lao, and opera to entertain himself and relieve his stress.

Regarding Zhu Quan's statement.

Zhang Yuchu nodded in agreement and said, "Your Highness's evaluation of my brother is quite high. However... I have to admit, without any modesty, that my incompetent disciple may be a little impetuous, but Yuqing is definitely very calm and capable of handling important matters."

What he said was indeed the truth.

Historically, the position of the head of the Zhengyi Sect, Zhang Yuchu, and the Heavenly Master appointed by the imperial court was passed on to Zhang Yuqing.

He has this trust in his brother.

So he believed that the contents of this letter...

There must be something hidden that he can't figure out.

He was also willing to believe the last sentence of this only letter, which warned: "No matter what, you should respect the new emperor"...

It is the future path for Zhengyi Sect.

Even though he is not quite clear about the internal logic of this conclusion now.

This is also...

The third reason why he appeared in Prince Ning’s Mansion today!

The Zhengyi Sect has gone through several dynasties. As the head of the sect, although he is not involved in court affairs and struggles, he can see clearly that although the current Ming Dynasty seems stable, it actually still has many problems.

Young emperors have always been the target of people's covetousness in all dynasties, so the disaster caused by vassal kings is one of the hidden dangers.

Since Zhang Yuqing sent out the signal from the palace, and he chose to believe his brother, his behavior would naturally lean towards the conclusion stated in Zhang Yuqing's letter.

Now, given the relationship between the two of them and Ning Wang Zhu Quan, giving Ning Wang a slight indirect attack will not be harmful to Zhengyi Sect or him, but perhaps, it will achieve a merit for Zhengyi Sect in the future.

Well, as long as Zhang Yuqing's words are true, they are indeed credible.

Although Zhu Quan was intelligent, he had little experience and his thoughts were not that deep. Naturally, he didn't know that Zhang Yuchu had so many complicated plans in his mind. He just thought that Zhang Tianshi came to visit him to reminisce about the past because he was interested in Taoism and they had a casual acquaintance in the past.

Therefore, he did not doubt Zhang Yuchu's seemingly normal words, which actually contained some inflammatory intentions. He just smiled and said, "Whether it is Zhang Tianshi or Taoist Zhang in the palace, they are both people with profound Taoism. Naturally, I think he can be trusted."

At this point, Zhu Quan had clearly been led by Zhang Yuchu to the so-called "conclusion" that Zhang Yuqing had spoken of. Deep thought appeared in his eyes, and a pitiful young man who liked to lower his head, timidly and incompletely spoke appeared in his mind. He habitually muttered, "Zhu Yunhuan... the new emperor... no matter what, we must respect the new emperor..."
