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

Chapter 565 The fisherman gets a profit
He paused for a moment, feeling a bit scared; he was traumatized by the beating.

The thought that Lan Yu might even reach their capital startled her, and she quickly nodded in agreement.

“You’re right. Under no circumstances should we let Lan Yu continue to invade.”

"In that case, I'll leave this matter to you!"

"We must teach the Timurid Empire a lesson, and also stop Lan Yu from continuing his attack. If possible, we should defeat him!"

The general couldn't help but give a wry smile upon hearing this.

He might be able to reunite the various forces, but asking him to defeat Lan Yu would be asking too much of him.

If he had that ability, why would he need to stay in this place? Thinking about this place made him feel conflicted.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am willing to dedicate myself to the Sultanate of Delhi and even die for it, but with my strength, I am no match for that Blue Jade!"

"Lan Yu's strength is simply too great. All we can do is keep him out of the country!"

The emperor of the Delhi Sultanate's face darkened, and he finally let out a long sigh.

"You're right, we're no match for them with our current strength. If that's the case, then let's do it this way for now!"

"Furthermore, gather all the renowned doctors in our country!"

"No matter the cost, they must heal the Crown Prince for me. If anything happens to the Crown Prince, I will not forgive them!"

The ministers in the court breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. In any case, at least His Majesty had agreed not to confront the Timurid Empire anymore.

At least a portion of the army could be drawn to this place. They looked at the general with gratitude in their eyes. Sure enough, they understood what His Majesty was most worried about. Compared to other things, he was more afraid of Lan Yu. He had been completely terrified by Lan Yu before. Everyone couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. After the court session, everyone surrounded the general.

Thank you for your righteous help, General. If it weren't for your words, His Majesty would probably have had a hard time giving up this idea.

The general couldn't help but react upon hearing this.

His eyes were filled with complex emotions.

It's hard to tell whether it's a good thing or a bad thing that one's own emperor is so afraid of his enemies.

However, in his view, this was indeed an extremely tragic event.

The Timurid Empire's envoys were received by the Delhi Sultanate's envoys, and the two shared the same goal: the fighting could not continue.

However, the two sides had a great deal of disagreement about who was responsible for the incident, each believing that the other was at fault. This led to a stalemate in the peace talks, which ultimately had to be dropped, and both sides' troops withdrew and remained on the border.

Lan Yu was somewhat surprised when she learned of this news.

"I never expected them to do this!"

"It's really interesting how this was resolved!"

"However, it seems that this matter has been resolved. In fact, there are no objections at all. Both sides only dared not continue fighting because of the existence of our Great Ming. Neither side actually had any intention of ceasing hostilities!"

"They have no intention of making peace!" "This is very disadvantageous for them, especially in Yingtian Prefecture at this moment!"

Zhu Yuanzhang lay on a recliner, looking extremely smug, as the Ming Dynasty was developing at an extremely rapid pace during this period.

Everything was on track, and to his delight, students from all over the country had begun to recruit new students. Moreover, these officials were of extremely high quality, no longer the same as those from the powerful families of the past. More importantly, the members of those powerful families had also begun to divide into various branches, which could ensure, to the greatest extent possible, that they would not abuse their power for personal gain in the name of their families.

Therefore, there wasn't much going on in the court during this period, and they thoroughly enjoyed this peaceful life.

When the ministers in the court saw Zhu Yuanzhang like this, their lips twitched involuntarily.

Zhu Yuanzhang had been living a very leisurely life during this period, but thinking about it, it made sense, as things were obviously much better for him now than before.

Especially with Crown Prince Zhu Biao and Grandson Zhu Xiong Ying watching over the court, nothing too serious is likely to happen.

Therefore, when Zhu Yuanzhang was so leisurely, he looked at the ministers in the court and listened to them talk about what was happening in various parts of the country. He was very satisfied. During this period, the Ming Dynasty was recuperating and living a very good life, and even he was doing so.

In this environment, his violent temper diminished considerably.

In the original historical timeline, Empress Ma's grandson Zhu Xiong Ying died one after another, and most of the brothers who had fought alongside him to establish the empire were also dead, which led to a significant change in his temperament.

Although some individuals have done some hateful things, ultimately they cannot affect the overall situation.

That's why he was able to enjoy his leisure time. After learning about what was happening between the Timurid Empire and the Delhi Sultanate, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said...

"These two countries are really interesting. Weren't they supposed to be united against my Great Ming? Now they've started fighting amongst themselves!"

"However, Lan Yu's ability to stir up trouble has improved. I hadn't noticed before that this kid's brain is much sharper than before!"

"I definitely need to practice outside, otherwise becoming smarter won't be an easy thing!"

The officials in the court looked at each other in bewilderment, when one of them spoke up.

"Your Majesty, the Delhi Sultanate is much weaker than before. This is a good opportunity. Do you think we should send more troops? Maybe we can conquer this country!"

At this point, the ministers became extremely excited.

It's important to understand that the Delhi Sultanate has a very large territory. Once this territory is taken over, it means there will be more positions in the court, and they will be able to take this opportunity to expand their power significantly.

Previously, they opposed Zhu Yuanzhang's expansion of power. Once the court's power expanded, the emperor's power would be much greater than before, which obviously did not conform to their calculations.

But the situation is different now.

As the Ming Dynasty's territory expanded, they discovered that the status of their officials rose very rapidly. Previously, with less territory, officials did not wield much power, but the situation was different now.

The same rank can now manage far more officials than before, which is a benefit of increased national strength.

So they are in a hurry to destroy the Delhi Sultanate, hoping to make a name for themselves in history.
