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

Chapter 518 The dust has settled
Wang Bi, who was standing to the side, said.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

"I guess our second siege has driven him to despair!"

"So anything that can save his kingdom."

Sitting in that same spot once again, he couldn't care less about anything else!

Lan Yu smiled.

"This is actually a great opportunity for us. Through this incident, even fewer people in the Delhi Sultanate will believe in this emperor, and it probably won't be long before things continue to descend into chaos!"

"The more chaotic they are, the more we can benefit from it!"

The group smiled after hearing this.

Now that the matter has been resolved, Wang Bi and Mu Ying said.

"Now that things are settled here, we should leave this place. The Khmer Empire has just been pacified, and there are still many things to do in the world. I'm afraid we can't stay away for too long!"

Lan Yu nodded upon hearing this. The fact that these two people could come to provide support, especially after just finishing a battle, was already more than enough.

"Since that's the case, then you should go back and collect this item. I owe you a favor. Next time we meet, I'll treat you to drinks!"

Upon hearing this, the person burst into laughter.

The walls and Mu Ying also returned to the place they had guarded.

Zhu Xiong Ying breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this news.

Although he trusted Lan Yu very much, this time they had mobilized almost all the troops they could muster in the entire southwest. If something went wrong, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At this point, he was already considering whether to transfer more troops from other places to this location.

"I must say, Duke Lan Yu of Liang has indeed chosen a good location this time. It not only provides fertile land for defense, but also borders the U-Tsang Provincial Administration Commission. This is a great thing for us!"

Wu Liang nodded after hearing this.

"Indeed, Duke Lan Yu of Liang always manages to bring you some surprises. This battle has turned the entire Delhi Sultanate upside down, making it much easier to eliminate it next time!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded after hearing this. Indeed, the Delhi Sultanate suffered extremely heavy military losses this time, and rebellions broke out all over the country.

In particular, the support from the Timur Khanate this time did not bring them much benefit; on the contrary, it intensified their conflicts.

The Delhi Sultanate's navy was completely wiped out by them.

When we reach this place again next time, we can wipe them out completely.

At this time, the battle report about the Delhi Sultanate was quickly delivered to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Empress Ma has been very ill recently, which has made him extremely anxious.

Upon receiving this news, Zhu Yuanzhang's face broke into a long-lost smile.

"These guys did a great job! The Delhi Sultanate is now crippled, and Li Wenzhong is holding the Western Regions!"

"From now on, our Great Ming can take the initiative to attack them, while they can only defend passively!"

The ministers in the court were extremely pleased. Now that Lan Yu had reclaimed a large piece of land overseas, it would naturally require a lot of money from officials to manage it.

During this period, the country needed a great many officials, and even the new imperial examinations were held many times.

Now that many more positions are available, these people all have their own ideas. Of course, there's also news that Zhu Xiong Ying will be back in Yingtian Prefecture soon.

Zhu Xiong Ying originally intended to continue stationing himself in Southeast Asia.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, they subdued all those island nations. Who would have thought that at this moment, news suddenly came that Empress Ma was seriously ill.

Zhu Xiong Ying's face turned extremely ugly upon hearing this news. After so long, this day had finally come.

Left with no other choice, he returned to Yingtian Prefecture. When he arrived, he discovered that many of the Ming Dynasty's vassal kings had also returned to this place.

Everyone gathered together, especially Prince Qin Zhu Shuang and Prince Jin Zhu Gang, who had changed a lot since then.

Especially those who have done this in recent years, their abilities have increased, as have those of many other princes.

Just then, Zhu Xiong Ying returned to Yingtian Prefecture, when a voice suddenly came from behind him.

"U.A., it's been a long time!"

Zhu Xiong Ying turned around and saw that the person calling him from behind was none other than his fourth uncle, Prince Yan, Zhu Di.

"Fourth Uncle, why are you back? I heard that you followed Li Wenzhong to attack the Eastern Chagatai Khanate and led an army to cut off their retreat seven times, which directly determined the victory of this battle!"

"Given my grandfather's personality, he will definitely reward you with a lot!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhu Di of Yan felt a surge of pride.

He had been to the battlefield before, but because of his special status, no one would let him risk his life on the front lines.

This battle was indeed exhilarating, but it was also the closest he had ever felt to death. Thinking about this, he scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Xiongying, you're wrong about that. It was thanks to Duke Cao drawing the enemy away for me at the front lines that I was able to defeat them!"

"As for U.A., I've heard quite a bit about you!"

"Especially since you led an army and directly destroyed the Delhi Sultanate, and you personally supervised the battle, which is much better than what we uncles did!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled but didn't say anything more.

The group arrived at the palace together. At this time, all the princes had already arrived at this place. When they saw Zhu Xiong Ying appear there, they were somewhat surprised.

Zhu Xiong Ying held an extraordinary position in the imperial court, and even they had to respect him.

More importantly, the fundamental reason why the Ming Dynasty underwent such a great change was because of Zhu Xiong Ying.

Without Zhu Xiong Ying, they might not be where they are today.

Once everyone had arrived, the performer appeared before them; this person was none other than Crown Prince Zhu Biao.

Crown Prince Zhu Biao looked at his son and his brothers with great satisfaction.

After all these years, they have finally reunited once again.

Zhu Xiong Ying looked at Crown Prince Zhu Biao and hurriedly asked.

"Father, how is Grandmother now?"

Everyone else looked at Zhu Biao with anxious expressions.

Crown Prince Zhu Biao sighed and said, "The situation is not particularly optimistic. Since the beginning of this year, the Empress Dowager's health has not been good, and it remains so now."
