The renovation progress at the Eastern Palace was consistent with expectations. Every time Zhu Zhuo looked at the palace, now restored to its former glory, he felt a surge of excitement. Like a child who had finally received a long-desired toy, he would wander around the Eastern Palace after finishing his daily studies, finding everything fresh and fascinating.

Every time Zhu Zhuo visited while they were working, they would tremble; fearing their unease might be noticed, they had to grit their teeth and continue their work. They dared not show any disrespect to the Crown Prince now—they all knew the fate of Vice Minister Ding.
No one wanted to become the next Vice Minister Ding.
