The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 364 The country was suddenly destroyed
Now that things have come to this point, he was unwilling to say anything more. After thinking about this, he said firmly.

“Your Highness, although I may not be able to win the position, no matter what, someone must inherit that position. I think Yunwen is more suitable than Xiong Ying!”

Crown Prince Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then his eyes were filled with disbelief. He didn't know from what source Lady Lü had come to this conclusion. This was something he hadn't expected. After thinking about this, he sneezed and coughed lightly.

"If I remember correctly, Yunwen was allowed to attend court before, but not only did he not achieve much, he also became a laughing stock. It's truly despicable!"

"At that time, my father was extremely angry!"

"The officials in the court also highly approve of Zhu Xiong Ying. Do you really think you can resist Zhu Xiong Ying?"

"Are we just relying on Huang Zicheng, Lian Zining, and Fang Xiaoru?"

Upon hearing these names, the Crown Prince's concubine, Lady Lü, was greatly surprised, as these were all people she had chosen for Zhu Yunwen.

I would say that the others are quite talented individually, and they all come from prominent families with impeccable character.

Who could have imagined that their secret actions would be investigated so thoroughly? Even Zhu Yunwen was unaware of this.

This is one of the reasons why Huang Zicheng was so supportive just now.

Who could have imagined that His Majesty the Crown Prince would investigate so thoroughly? Did that mean that his own underhanded actions were also discovered?

Upon realizing this place, the Crown Prince's concubine, Lady Lü, knelt down on the ground with a thud.

"Your Highness, spare me! Your Highness, spare me! I was just momentarily unable to return the body, please forgive me!"

Crown Prince Zhu Biao sighed.

"There are some positions you can't control. If we can keep quiet, perhaps I can save his life!"

At this moment, the Crown Prince's concubine, Lady Lü, turned grim. She hadn't expected that everything had been discovered. She gave him a cold snort.

"Why can Zhu Xueying sit in that seat and play with Yunwen, but she can't sit in that seat?"

"As for what happened in the court before, it was all a setup by that Zhu Xiong Ying. Otherwise, how could Yunwen have done such a thing!"

"If Your Highness could give him another chance, I believe he would be able to do even better!"

Upon hearing this, Crown Prince Zhu Biao sighed deeply, realizing that the prince was truly beyond help.

"In that case, from now on you will sit in the Crown Prince's Eastern Palace. Without my order, you are not allowed to leave the Eastern Palace from today onwards!"

"Alright, that's all for now, I'm leaving!"

At this moment, as the Crown Prince Zhu Biao's departing figure was seen, Consort Lü felt a chill run through her heart. This was truly alarming.

It's all over; I've been completely abandoned.

Thinking of this, he collapsed inside the palace as if he had lost his soul.

At this time, there was no news of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang or Crown Prince Zhu Biao being seriously ill, and everyone was very excited. During this period, no one made any underhanded moves.

Officials and envoys from various countries breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they hadn't planned anything, otherwise their fate would have been much worse, given that some of them were looking to take advantage of the situation.

At this moment, they felt a little regretful. They never expected that Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and Crown Prince Zhu Biao, some of the most important people in the entire Ming Dynasty, would be feigning illness in this very place.

Everyone was shocked.

If a powerful court could make both the crown prince and the emperor feign illness, then who exactly was being targeted, or who were they using to set a trap?

Upon hearing this news, everyone felt a sense of unease. Meanwhile, the envoys from the southwestern kingdoms of Da Yue and other countries were overjoyed. Now that they were cured, they could finally discuss their own nations' affairs.

Sure enough, envoys from the kingdoms of Da Yue and Da Li arrived once again.

At the residence of Crown Prince Zhu Biao, they were still unaware of what was happening at the front.

Now you're still hoping to gain the Ming Dynasty's forgiveness and establish future relations with Dali and Dayue, so that things won't continue to be so troublesome for you.

In order to resolve this matter completely, they spared no expense in bribing all the envoys from various countries, hoping that they would speak on their behalf at this time.

Sure enough, the group found Crown Prince Zhu Biao together.

The crowd looked at Crown Prince Zhu Biao, their eyes flashing with dissatisfaction.

"Your Highness, you have been seriously ill recently!"

"But what happened?"

Crown Prince Zhu Biao smiled and shook his head after hearing this.

"It's nothing too serious, just a slight cold!"

"I'm almost fully recovered now!"

Everyone curled their lip upon hearing this.

How could they not know that Crown Prince Zhu Biao was feigning illness?

At this moment, the envoys from Dali and Da Yue spoke in a voice that was difficult to hear.

"In that case, let's get straight to the point. I'm sure His Highness is already very clear about what's happening at the front!"

"Continuing to fight like this is not good for either country. If His Highness the Crown Prince could stop the war, it would benefit both our countries!"

"Besides, both sides have some issues this time, so no one is to blame. How about we both take a step back?"

At this point, envoys from various countries also chimed in to support the cause.

However, Crown Prince Zhu Biao smiled and said...

"May I ask which country you two are envoys from?"

The envoys from Dali and Da Yue were taken aback. They frowned and exchanged glances, wondering what Crown Prince Zhu Biao meant by that. They were envoys from the Great Empire and Da Yue, and this shouldn't have been a big problem. Why ask such a question?

At this moment, the envoy from Dali Kingdom felt somewhat dissatisfied.

"What does Your Highness mean by this? Are you pretending not to know us? Although our Dali Kingdom is not a particularly powerful country, it still possesses considerable strength."

Do you really want to completely break ties with our special wing?

At this moment, Crown Prince Zhu Biao seemed to realize something and suddenly understood.

“I remember now, you were envoys from the kingdoms of Dali and Dayue, but we have already destroyed both of those kingdoms. I'm afraid you can no longer be called envoys!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked, as they had not received any news from the southwest due to the long distance.
