"It seems that the old man noticed it."
Zhu Ying stood at the window and watched the old man and the guards making news at the end of the street.
"But, so what if you find out? How can you be worse than a merchant?"
Zhu Ying smiled heartily, and said that his status as a businessman was low enough. Judging from current speculation, his original identity should be okay.
It just might get into some trouble.
If he is really the grandson of the old man, he should recognize his ancestor and return to his clan.
For Zhu Ying, the Ming Dynasty was mostly his ancestor and had little to do with it.
Besides, he doesn't need an identity to prove himself.
His ambition is not in Ming Dynasty.
After capturing Annan and becoming the founding emperor, we can still establish diplomatic relations with the Ming Dynasty.
Perhaps, there is still a chance to meet Zhu Yuanzhang, who will be extremely famous in later generations.
Thinking of this,
Zhu Ying suddenly remembered.
From Annan's side, there should be some information coming in recently.
at the same time,
Annan,
Outside the palace,
A middle-aged man wearing Annan official uniform was walking hurriedly on a street.
Influenced by the culture of the Ming Dynasty, or the Central Plains.
The clothes of the people here are almost similar to those of the Ming Dynasty.
At this time, Annan was also dominated by Chinese characters. Except for some differences in dialects, there were not many communication barriers.
The man in official uniform walked through the streets and alleys, and soon came to a small dilapidated door.
Boom, boom, boom, boom.
After knocking on the door rhythmically, footsteps soon came from inside.
Then the door was opened, and a thin man appeared.
"What's the matter?" the man asked in a low voice.
"There's something going on at home." The man in official uniform replied.
The thin man nodded, checked outside, and let the man in.
"Why are you here in official uniform? It's too easy to expose." The thin man scolded.
"It's an urgent matter. I'm afraid I've wasted some time. Please forgive me." The man in official uniform seemed a little frightened and said quickly.
"What's the matter? Tell me quickly."
"The tribute was rejected by the Ming Dynasty. Hu Ji Yao (mao) is now extremely powerful, and the emperor's health is getting worse. He is worried that his majesty is young, so he wants to marry the Ming Dynasty."
When the thin man heard this, his eyes widened and he said, "Princess Anxiu? When will we set off?"
The man in official uniform said tremblingly: "It's Princess Anxiu. I have a low status in the court. I've been setting out for seven or eight days since I heard the news."
"Damn it, what's the use of you? It's only now that such a big thing is reported. Get back here."
The thin man scolded him so harshly that the man in official uniform was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back.
After bowing, he left quickly.
The man in official uniform walked away, followed by the thin man.
After a few turns, we came to a tavern.
There were seven burly men in the tavern who were drinking wantonly. When they saw a thin man appearing, they stopped quickly and called them 'big brother'.
"Princess Anxiu set out for the Ming Dynasty capital about seven days ago. You and I will set out immediately to intercept her and pass the news to my employer."
The thin man ordered directly.
"Follow the order."
The seven people immediately stood up and quickly went out.
"Such a good opportunity should not be missed." The thin man murmured as he looked at the backs of everyone leaving.
Nowadays, traitors in Annan are taking power, powerful families are separatist, and people are revolting frequently. It is a good time for the boss to take possession.
The thin man was once a scholar of the Ming Dynasty, and he was one of the few military advisor talents in Zhu Ying.
The news about Princess Anxiu has been spread before.
But it has never been decided concretely.
The thin man at that time realized that this was an opportunity.
If Princess Anxiu can be kidnapped and the owner enters Annan in the name of Princess Anxiu's husband, it will be a well-known master.
With the current power of the Dong family, it would not be too difficult to seize Annan.
At that time, he will be the founding hero.
Thinking of this, the thin man couldn't help but get a little excited.
........
Daming Palace,
Zhu Yuanzhang has already arrived outside Huagai Hall.
"Fourth, what are you doing here?"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just arrived, saw Zhu Di waiting in the Huagai Hall, obviously spending a lot of time.
"Father, I dreamed of my mother yesterday. I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't fall asleep. Today I would like to ask my father for permission to go to the mausoleum of my mother to pay homage."
Zhu Di looked slightly sad, as if he was immersed in yesterday's dream.
It was also difficult for him, so he waited here for two full hours.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he became extremely melancholy and sighed: "You are still filial, fourth brother, how can those bastards still remember this?"
After finishing speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Liu He, the eunuch and eunuch beside him:
"Liu He."
"I'm here."
"Pass on our order to allow King Yan to enter the Xiaoling Mausoleum to pay homage."
"I obey the decree."
Seeing this, Zhu Di quickly said: "Thank you, Father, for your permission."
Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily: "There is no way that I would stop my son from seeing his mother."
He paused and then said: "Fourth brother, when you get to the mausoleum, help us tell the eldest sister that her eldest grandson is back."
Zhu Di was slightly shocked, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "My son, I obey the order."
He didn't expect things to go so smoothly. His father's ability to say this proved that he already accepted Zhu Ying in his heart.
However, because there is no evidence, he cannot be recalled to the palace immediately and his identity announced.
It would be difficult for the civil and military ministers to accept the resurrection from the dead.
The father must provide strong evidence to prove that Zhu Ying is the eldest grandson.
Otherwise, even if he is forcibly established as the crown prince, it will end up being somewhat unfair.
Of course Zhu Di knew in his heart that this evidence could only be false.
After all, he had already conducted an in-depth investigation and found that Zhu Ying was definitely not his eldest nephew.
Although he looks very similar to his eldest brother, there are only a few people who look similar in the world.
I can only say that I bumped into it by chance.
As for Zhu Yunwen, for now, he is justified. Once he takes the throne, Zhu Di will have nothing to do.
Zhu Di, who turned to leave, happened to meet five people from the six ministers who had been summoned by Zhu Yuanzhang.
"I have met His Highness King Yan." Several ministers bowed slightly and bowed.
Zhu Di nodded slightly, and several ministers hurried towards the Huagai Hall.
Seeing this, Zhu Di had some doubts in his heart.
There was nothing major going on this morning.
After his father left the court, Zhu Di could guess that he went directly to Zhu Ying.
Just looking at the expressions of several ministers, it was obvious that their father had urgently summoned them.
Is it possible that this matter has something to do with Zhu Ying?
Zhu Di thought about it secretly and went back directly to the palace.
It is already afternoon, and there is not enough time to go back and forth to Zhongshan Xiaoling Mausoleum, so we can only go there early tomorrow morning.
With his father's order, he does not need to go to the morning court tomorrow.
In the Huagai Hall, when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang coming over from various ministers, he smiled and said:
"You are here at the right time. We have come up with a wonderful idea. You can help us with our advice to see if it can be of great use to this famine."
