Chapter 330: Recall (2)
Emperor Chong’an waved his hand to get him up and asked the eunuch to bring a chair for him to sit down and talk.
Lord Zhou was now the Grand Tutor. Although he sounded like an elder, he actually did not have any real power.
After all, he was old. If he really had to do other tasks, he would be too weak. He could only enter the palace often to give Emperor Chong’an advice.
Previously, he went to Xunyang City because there was no more suitable candidate than him. After returning, he fell seriously ill. Emperor Chong’an did not dare to put his body through so much stress again.
"Minister Zhou." Emperor Chong’an pointed at the pile of memorials asking for the crown prince. "Which prince do you think I should appoint as the crown prince?"
Lord Zhou was deeply shocked. He guessed what Emperor Chong’an meant. After thinking for a moment, he knelt down and said, "I don’t think there’s a need to rush this matter. Only the Eldest Prince has achieved results among the princes, but the others are not bad either. Besides, it’s still unknown if he’s abducting girls..."
As he spoke, Lord Zhou observed Emperor Chong’an’s expression from the corner of his eye. Seeing that he was not angry, he continued, "I think..."
This conversation lasted until noon. Emperor Chong’an gave him lunch before getting someone to send Lord Zhou out of the palace.
