Chapter 149: The Land of Gentleness is the Tomb of Heroes

"Okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

"Let's go!" Zhu Yunhuan took a deep breath and walked away.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Yunhuan's back and hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Wait a minute!"

Zhu Yunhuan paused, turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a puzzled look, and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was troubled for a while and asked, "Prince Jin, Prince Chu and others, what are you going to do?"

Zhu Yunhuan was puzzled, frowning slightly, and asked, "What should I do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunhuan and saw that he really didn't understand the meaning of his words. After thinking for a while, he continued, "I heard that you agreed to their leaving Yingtian Prefecture not long ago."

"Yes, what's wrong?" Zhu Yunxun nodded.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused and hesitated, "What are you going to do now? Leave them in Yingtian Prefecture?"

"Don't keep them. Didn't I say that? Let them return to their fiefdom." Zhu Yunheng shook his head and said softly.

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this, his face full of shock.

At this moment, are you really not worried at all as you continue to let Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others leave?

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were extremely complicated, and he asked, "Aren't you worried at all?"

"What are you worried about?" Zhu Yunhuan smiled and thought for a moment before saying, "You mean, you're worried about the uncles causing trouble?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a while, then nodded: "Not bad!"

Although he was very reluctant to let Zhu Yunhuan fight with Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others, it would be better to make some things clear at this time.

His words now seem to be detrimental to Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others, but in fact they are protecting Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others.

It was rare that Zhu Yunhuan gave Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others a chance.

If Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others cause trouble again, their lives will be in danger.

He takes a long-term view of things.

Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others could never be opponents of Zhu Yunhuan.

Not to mention the various mysterious things about Zhu Yunhuan, even the origins of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry have not been found out yet.

When Zhu Yunhuan marched north to the grasslands, even the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry suffered heavy losses.

However, who can guarantee that Zhu Yunhuan cannot create two more troops like the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry?
Therefore, for Zhu Gang, Zhu Zhen and others, the best way is to be honest.

However, he knew his sons very well. If something really happened to the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, could they really keep calm?

There is a high probability that it will not be stable.

If you can't keep your composure, you will die!

"Don't worry, I won't test the uncles, nor will I give them a chance." Zhu Yunheng smiled, said no more nonsense, and walked out of the courtyard.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunhuan's back with a dazed look in his eyes.

After a long while, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "This brat is quite confident!"

Take a deep breath.

He calmed himself down and began to think about what Zhu Yunhuan had just said to him.

Kill the grasslands and force them to surrender.

If one's fighting power is really sufficient, this is possible.

"Could it be that the Ming Dynasty is really going to eliminate the threat from the grassland?" Zhu Yuanzhang murmured.

Although he was well aware of how difficult this was, he couldn't help but feel hopeful when he thought of Zhu Yunhuan's confident look just now.

As conceited as he was, after establishing the Ming Dynasty, he only wanted to weaken the grasslands as much as possible to prevent them from invading the Ming territory.

However, now Zhu Yunhuan wants to conquer the grassland directly.

Apart from anything else, the two people's ideas are fundamentally different.

The palace!

After leaving the courtyard, Zhu Yunhuan went straight back to the palace.

"Your Majesty, the Prince of Jin requests an audience!" Ma Sanbao said respectfully.

"Oh? Take Prince Jin to the imperial study!" Zhu Yunheng's eyes flashed with surprise and he waved his hand.

Since he had just talked with Zhu Yuanzhang, when he heard that Zhu Gang was coming to see him, he immediately understood what Zhu Gang was thinking.

Although it would be safer to detain the princes in Yingtian Prefecture, he did not intend to do so.

In the current situation, it is indeed dangerous to send the princes back to their fiefdoms. However, as long as nothing happens to him, the princes dare to give it a try.

As long as you don't want to live, just make trouble.

He had said before that he would only give one chance, and if anyone did not listen, they would have to bear the consequences themselves.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ma Sanbao nodded and walked away.

Zhu Yunhuan walked towards the imperial study.

Royal study room!
Zhu Gang came before Zhu Yunhuan and bowed, "Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand, looked at Zhu Gang, and said, "Uncle San, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Your Majesty, I am not here for any big reason. I am just running errands for a group of princes. I wonder if what you said before about asking the princes to leave Yingtian Prefecture still counts?" Zhu Gang said cautiously.

After saying this, he kept secretly observing Zhu Yunhuan's reaction, intending to kneel down and admit his mistake if something went wrong.

Zhu Yunhuan looked at Zhu Gang and said with a smile, "Uncle San, do you think this matter should be counted?"

"Plop!" Zhu Gang's knees buckled and he knelt on the ground, saying, "Your Majesty, I don't think this matter should be counted!"

"Oh? Why?" Zhu Yunxun asked.

Zhu Gang's face turned pale, with fine beads of cold sweat on his forehead. He said, "Your Majesty, the situation is different now than it was in the past. Therefore, some things need to be changed. Not allowing the princes to return to their fiefdoms now is also for their own good."

Zhu Yunhuan looked at Zhu Gang with a playful expression and said, "Third Uncle, do you really think so?"

Zhu Gang nodded and said seriously, "Yes, every word I say is from the bottom of my heart. I hope Your Majesty will understand!"

"Okay, Third Uncle, you get up first." Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhu Gang breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from the ground.

Zhu Yunxun waved his hand and said, "Third Uncle, please sit down!"

"No, no, I'll just stand here!" Zhu Gang said.

Under the current circumstances, how could he dare to sit down? He might even have to kneel down later.

Zhu Yunhuan's face darkened and he said, "I ask you to sit down."

Zhu Gang's expression changed slightly, and he quickly found a place to sit down, feeling uneasy.

At this moment, he felt a little regretful.

He had originally accepted the assignment with the intention of entering the palace to gain some benefits for himself.

However, not only did he not get any benefits, he was also frightened.

"Third uncle." Zhu Yunhuan looked at Zhu Gang.

"I am here, Your Majesty, please give your orders!" Zhu Gang looked at Zhu Yunhuan.

Seeing Zhu Gang's expression, Zhu Yunhuan couldn't help but smile and said, "Haha, Third Uncle, you don't have to be so nervous. I won't eat you, so why are you so nervous?"

Zhu Gang felt bitter in his heart and thought to himself, "Your Majesty, you won't eat me, but you will kill me!"

Zhu Yunhuan didn't know what Zhu Gang was thinking, so he said, "Third Uncle, please tell the other uncles that what I said before is still valid. You can still leave Yingtian Prefecture at any time."

"Ah?" Zhu Gang was stunned when he heard Zhu Yunhuan's words, his face full of disbelief: "Your Majesty."

Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand, interrupting Zhu Gang's words, and said, "However, I still say what I said before. You only have one chance. If anyone refuses to obey, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Zhu Gang looked at Zhu Yunhuan and said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, I think it would be best not to let the princes leave. This is the safest way."

Zhu Yunhuan was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Zhu Gang with a smile on his face and said, "Third Uncle, if the other uncles heard this, they would probably isolate you!"

Zhu Gang looked embarrassed and said, "Your Majesty, this is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. If the princes isolate me because of this, then I accept it."

Zhu Yunhuan clapped his hands, a look of approval on his face as he said, "Third Uncle, if all the other uncles were as conscious as you, I wouldn't worry about the prosperity of our Ming Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, your compliments are too kind. The prosperity of the Ming Dynasty depends on you!" Zhu Gang said. Zhu Yunhuan smiled and said, "Third Uncle, although it would be better for the princes to stay in Yingtian Prefecture, a forced melon is not sweet. If they want to return to their fiefdoms, then let them go. It's fine."

"Ah?" Zhu Gang looked up at Zhu Yunhuan. He had said it so clearly, but Zhu Yunhuan still wanted the kings to leave Yingtian Prefecture?
He couldn't understand.

Now Zhu Yunhuan only needs to nod his head. He will go back and tell Zhu Zhen, Zhu Tan and others that Zhu Yunhuan asked them to stay in Yingtian Prefecture. At that time, he will take the opportunity to explain the reasons, and the princes will definitely accept it.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yunhuan still wanted to let the princes leave.

"Uncle San, your proposal is indeed very prudent, but do you know why I still don't let the uncles stay in Yingtian Prefecture?" Zhu Yunheng looked at Zhu Gang.

Zhu Gang shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Zhu Yunhuan said softly: "Because I don't care!"

"Don't care?" Zhu Gang was stunned when he heard that, a little surprised.

He didn't expect Zhu Yunhuan to say such a thing.

"Yes, I have enough confidence in this northern expedition. Otherwise, I would not lead the army in person. In this case, it really doesn't matter to me whether the uncles are in Yingtian Prefecture." Zhu Yunheng said.

"This..." Zhu Gang was silent, his heart filled with bitterness.

At this moment, he finally understood that he, Zhu Zhen, Zhu Tan and others had never been taken seriously by Zhu Yunhuan from the very beginning.

As a famous vassal king, if he heard other people say this, he would be furious, but when Zhu Yunhuan said this, he only felt bitterness.

"Uncle San, when you go back, you can talk to Uncle Wang and the others. They no longer have their amulets. In the future, they should think twice before doing anything. If they act impulsively, they will have to bear the consequences themselves in the end." Zhu Yunheng said.

Zhu Gang nodded and said, "I'll make a note of it!"

Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand and said, "If there is nothing else, Third Uncle can go back first. We will go to war tomorrow, and I have other things to do now."

Zhu Gang stood up, bowed and said, "I'll take my leave!"

Zhu Yunhuan waited until Zhu Gang left, took a deep breath, walked out of the imperial study and headed towards the harem.

Kunning Palace!
Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan were together, all with a hint of sadness between their brows.

They already knew that Zhu Yunhuan was going to lead the army in person.

Although they also knew that the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were very powerful, any accident could happen on the battlefield.

Zhu Yunhuan walked into Kunning Palace. Seeing Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan there, he was slightly stunned. Then he smiled and said, "My three beloved concubines, are you waiting for me?"

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou, and Zhang Yan stepped forward and bowed.

"Everyone get up!" Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand and found a place to sit down.

Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan stood up and walked to Zhu Yunhuan, each of them wanting to say something but stopping themselves.

"If you have anything to say, sit down and talk. There are no outsiders here." Zhu Yunhuan waved his hand.

Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan hesitated for a moment and each found a seat to sit down.

"Are you three gathered together because I am going to lead the army in person?" Zhu Yunhuan said with a smile.

The three women nodded.

Xu Miaojin took a deep breath, looked at Zhu Yunhuan, and said, "Your Majesty, can't we let the Duke of Liang and his men deal with the invasion of the Northern Yuan Dynasty?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, you are the king. Leading an army to fight is too risky." Zhao Rou said.

"Your Majesty, you were really too impulsive this time. You should stay in the rear instead of leading the army to fight the enemy." Zhang Yan also said.

With Xu Miaojin taking the lead, the two of them dared to speak out what was in their hearts.

Zhu Yunhuan smiled and waved his hands, saying, "You are all right. With the Northern Yuan's current invasion, let alone sending Lan Yu and others to deal with it, even if we do nothing, once the Northern Yuan knows the current situation of our Ming Dynasty, they will voluntarily withdraw their troops."

Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan were stunned when they heard Zhu Yunhuan's words.

Zhao Rou was not sure what to say. Xu Miaojin and Zhang Yan were both extremely smart women. If it were normal, the situation would not be hidden from them at all.

However, they were only thinking about Zhu Yunhuan leading the army in person, and did not consider the situation behind it at all.

"Your Majesty, since the Northern Yuan Dynasty will withdraw its troops, why do you still want to lead the army in person?" Zhao Rou asked, her eyes full of confusion.

Xu Miaojin and Zhang Yan also looked up at Zhu Yunhuan with puzzled eyes.

"My purpose of going north this time is not just to repel the Northern Yuan Dynasty. If that were the only purpose, I would not lead the army in person. I am going north to pacify the grassland!" Zhu Yunhuan said softly.

"Pacify the grassland?" Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou, and Zhang Yan were stunned when they heard this.

"Your Majesty, are you talking about pacifying the grassland?" Xu Miaojin's face was full of astonishment.

"Yes!" Zhu Yunhuan nodded.

"This..." Xu Miaojin opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Zhang Yan hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, the grasslands are not so easy to pacify."

"Yes, the grassland is difficult to pacify. After one force is defeated, a new force will emerge soon, just like the grass on the grassland. It is difficult to completely eliminate it." Zhu Yunheng nodded.

Xu Miaojin was puzzled. She looked at Zhu Yunhuan and said, "Your Majesty, if you know this, why do you still say you want to pacify the grassland?"

"If we don't pacify the grassland, the north of the Ming Dynasty will never be stable, and the influence of the Ming Dynasty will not be able to go beyond." Zhu Yunhuan's face was calm.

This was the first time he openly concealed his ambition in front of others.

I have finally traveled through time and space, and I have also activated the system. How can I not build up the Ming Dynasty well?
In his plan, the Ming Dynasty will become the center of the world in the future and stand as a giant dragon in the east of the world!
Conquering the grassland was just the first step in his plan to show his fangs.

"The influence of the Ming Dynasty? Can't get out?" Xu Miaojin was stunned. Looking at Zhu Yunhuan, he asked, "Your Majesty, what is influence? Why can't it get out?"

Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan also looked at Zhu Yunhuan like two curious babies.

They felt that Zhu Yunhuan at this moment was filled with a special secret that was attracting them.

"How should I put it? You can regard it as the reputation of the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Yunheng thought for a moment and spoke out.

It is really difficult to accurately describe the influence in feudal dynasties.

"Reputation? Can Weiming be taken away?" Zhao Rou said.

"Of course!" Zhu Yunhuan nodded with a smile.

Xu Miaojin lowered her head in thought for a while, then raised her head and said seriously, "Your Majesty, although I don't know what you are going to do, I will always support you!"

Zhang Yan and Zhao Rou suppressed their doubts when they heard Xu Miaojin's words, looked at each other, and said at the same time: "Your Majesty, we do too!"

Zhu Yunhuan looked at the three women in front of him, stood up and hugged them.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Zhu Yunhuan was dressed neatly with the help of Xu Miaojing, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan.

Looking at Zhu Yunhuan, who was wearing golden armor and had a long sword hanging from his waist, the three women were dazed for a moment.

"How do you like my outfit?" Zhu Yunhuan said with a smile.

Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. Once he put on this golden armor, his already outstanding appearance became even more extraordinary, like a god from heaven, eye-catching.

"Swish!" Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan's faces flushed at the same time when they heard the words.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Boom boom boom!"

At this time, the dull sound of the horn and the sound of the drums rang out.

This is the military parade ground where the troops are being counted!

Zhu Yunhuan took a deep breath, walked forward and hugged Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou, and Zhang Yan. He kissed them lightly on the forehead and said, "Wait for me to come back in Yingtian Prefecture!"

After saying this, he waved to the three women and walked out of Kunning Palace.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

"Your Majesty, we are waiting for your safe return!"

"."

Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan shouted at Zhu Yunhuan's back.

Even though they were prepared, their eyes were all red at this moment.

"This time we go north, we must pacify the grassland!" Zhu Yunhuan listened to the shouts of the three women behind him and resisted the urge to look back.

At this moment, he deeply understood what it meant that the land of gentleness is the tomb of heroes. He had only been married to Xu Miaojin, Zhao Rou and Zhang Yan for a short time, and he was already reluctant to leave this land of gentleness.
