The Emperor wanted to carefully examine the documents on the table, which couldn't all be reviewed in a short time. Not only did he need to look at them, but so did the Crown Prince—their method of recording information was worth learning.
The Emperor put down the documents in his hand, "I need to review the records before discussing plans, you shall stay in the capital for some days."
This was just as Zhou Shuren had expected, "Your servant obeys."
The Emperor continued, "During these days, you shall come to the palace and teach the Crown Prince and me about these recording methods."
Zhou Shuren respectfully responded, "Your servant receives the order."
Zhou Shuren was not pleased to teach the Emperor and the Crown Prince, feeling quite frustrated. This time, he had truly entrapped himself.
