Ming Dynasty: The Jingnan Rebellion has just been successful, and Zhu Yuanzhang has been resurrected

Chapter 161 The Despicable Ming Dynasty, Grand Tutor, We've Been Deceived!
"Hoo," Zhu Yunwen took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, pushed open the door and went out.

Upon realizing that Zhu Yuanzhang might still be alive, he was unwilling to wait a moment longer and wished he could find Zhu Yuanzhang immediately and ask him to make decisions for him.

"I never expected that my grandfather would still be alive. That's wonderful."

"Zhu Yuntong, you didn't expect this, did you? Your grandfather is still alive. Wait until I find him, and then I'll make you hand over the throne obediently."

Zhu Yunwen walked faster and faster, unable to suppress the burning passion in his heart.

Of course, this is understandable.

Zhu Yunwen's strength was too great, leaving him with absolutely no hope of turning the tide.

To everyone's surprise, Zhu Yuanzhang was still alive.

The Ming Dynasty was founded by Zhu Yuanzhang. As long as Zhu Yuanzhang steps forward, Zhu Yunwen will die instantly, and he will become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty again.

"Great!"

"It's really great!"

"Zhu Yunwen, you probably never dreamed that your grandfather was not dead, did you?"

"Hahaha, so what if you're strong? The Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, these powerful troops are destined to be used by me. Zhu Yunwen, everything you have is just a wedding dress made for me."

Zhu Yunwen's face was filled with undisguised joy.

At this moment, he couldn't help but want to cheer loudly to express his joy.

Finally, reason prevailed and he calmed down.

Before he met Zhu Yuanzhang, he had to endure everything.

After a while.

Zhu Yunwen found the old monk who had taken him in.

He took a deep breath and stepped forward to the old monk: "Master!"

"Huiming, what brings you here?" the old monk asked calmly.

Zhu Yunwen looked up at the old monk and asked, "Master, are you able to contact my grandfather, the Emperor?"

He thought very simply.

Since the old monk took him in back then, there must have been some connection between the old monk and Zhu Yuanzhang.

In present-day Yingtian Prefecture, there is no longer a place for him to stay.

Although Zhu Yunwen is not in Yingtian Prefecture now, instead of rashly rushing out to look for Zhu Yuanzhang, it would be better to directly inquire about Zhu Yuanzhang's whereabouts from the old monk.

This way, they could find Zhu Yuanzhang quickly and safely.

“Huiming, you have already entered the Buddhist order, why do you still want to think about worldly affairs?” the old monk said.

Zhu Yunwen's expression was somewhat trembling as he said, "Grandpa Emperor is not dead yet. When I see Grandpa Emperor, he will make a decision for me."

“Huiming, worldly affairs have long since ceased to concern you with anything. It’s best not to remain stubbornly deluded,” the old monk said.

Zhu Yunwen hesitated for a moment, then suddenly knelt down and said, "Master, please help me contact my grandfather. After I sit on the throne again, I will never forget your kindness."

Does the world have nothing to do with him anymore?
How could there be no connection? He is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
Moreover, he wasn't stubbornly clinging to his beliefs; the Ming Dynasty was originally his, but Zhu Yunwen forcibly took it away from him.

If there's no hope of turning things around, then so be it.

Now, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang intervenes, he can be put back on the throne.

How could he remain unmoved under such circumstances!
"Amitabha."

"Dang Dang Dang"

The old monk chanted a Buddhist prayer, closed his eyes, and began to strike the wooden fish.

Zhu Yunwen looked at the old monk and was first taken aback, then his eyes revealed a deep resentment.

He suddenly scrambled to his feet, shouting angrily, "I will definitely find my grandfather!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

"Dong dong dong," the old monk continued to strike the wooden fish with unwavering composure.

"Oh!"

Zhu Yunwen returned to his residence and slammed the door shut: "Damn it, why didn't they help me? Why?!"

He was filled with immense anger.

All he had to do was help him, and he could regain the throne, at which point the old monk would also receive a generous reward.

As a result, the old monk simply gave up this benefit that was offered to him.

He couldn't understand why this was happening.

"Hmph, do you really think that means I'll never see my grandfather again?"

"No one can stop me from seeing my grandfather!"

Zhu Yunwen calmed down, his eyes darting around as he pondered a solution.

Although he was extremely angry, he did not lose his temper.

His current situation is extremely dangerous. If he rashly goes out to look for Zhu Yuanzhang, he may be killed if he is discovered.

"Fang Xiaoru, Xia Yuanji, Hu Ying, Third Uncle, Sixth Uncle, Jiang Huan."

One name after another flashed through Zhu Yunwen's mind.

Finally, he was somewhat dejected.

Because he doesn't know who he can truly trust.

If you choose the wrong person, you will be doomed.

"Damn old monk!" Zhu Yunwen cursed again.

Given the current situation, if the old monk could help him contact Zhu Yuanzhang, that would be the best outcome.

Unfortunately, the old monk remained stubborn and unyielding.

Imperial Palace, Kunning Palace!

Xu Miaojin returned to the palace.

After wandering around for a while, she finally felt completely at ease.

In the current situation, whatever Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai want to do, it will all be in vain.

Moreover, even if Zhu Yuanzhang were to ultimately stand against Zhu Yunwen, she would still be able to put up a good fight.

"Sister!" Zhang Yan walked over with a solemn expression.

Seeing Zhang Yan's appearance, Xu Miaojin looked puzzled and asked, "Sister, is there something you need?"

Zhang Yan did not speak, but instead looked at the palace maids and eunuchs on her left and right.

"You may all leave!" Xu Miaojin waved her hand.

"Yes, madam!"

The palace maids and eunuchs bowed and left the palace.

In the blink of an eye.

Only Xu Miaojin and Zhang Yan remained in the palace.

Zhang Yan took a deep breath and stepped forward, saying, "Sister, I received news that Huang Zicheng has returned to Yingtian Prefecture. He may have come back to look for the grandson of Emperor Yunwen."

Xu Miaojin looked at Zhang Yan in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I already know about this matter. I just left the palace for this reason."

"Huh?" Zhang Yan was slightly taken aback, then looked relieved and said, "Sister, have you already made all the arrangements?"

Although she was somewhat surprised, considering Xu Miaojin's identity and background, she found it quite normal. After all, even she had received the news; it wouldn't make sense if Xu Miaojin was still kept in the dark.

"Yes, everything is basically arranged," Xu Miaojin said.

"Now that my sister has made all the arrangements, I feel relieved." Zhang Yan breathed a slight sigh of relief.

She did not ask Xu Miaojin what arrangements she had made.

However, she was very clear that since Xu Miaojin had made all the arrangements, Yingtian Prefecture should be safe, unless Zhu Yunwen suffered a major defeat on the grasslands.

He started his rebellion in Fengyang, swiftly marched into Yingtian Prefecture, and ascended the throne.

After that, the troublemaking vassal kings were suppressed.

Faced with this fact, anyone who wants to cause trouble needs to think twice.

Prince Jin’s Palace!
Zhu Zhen, Zhu Tan, Zhu Chun, Zhu Yan and others arrived at Zhu Gang's residence.

In the past few days, some vassal kings have left Yingtian Prefecture one after another, but most of them are still observing the situation.

In particular, upon receiving news that Huang Zicheng had returned to Yingtian Prefecture, the princes who had not yet left dared not depart.

If I leave, what if I get slandered later?
At that time, it will be extremely difficult to prove oneself.

Some people who wanted to leave but didn't are filled with regret, but there's nothing they can do about it.

"Everyone, what are you all doing here again?" Zhu Gang asked calmly.

He knew in his heart that Zhu Zhen, Zhu Chun and others must have come to his door because they knew that Huang Zicheng had entered Yingtian Prefecture.

"Third Brother, have you heard any news lately?" Zhu Zhen, Zhu Chun, Zhu Yan, and the others exchanged glances and asked in a deep voice.

"News? What news? I don't know!" Zhu Gang shook his head.

The situation is complicated, and he doesn't want to get too involved.

He was one of those who had decided from the beginning to stay in Yingtian Prefecture, wanting to see how Zhu Yunwen's northern expedition would end.

"This"

Zhu Zhen, Zhu Tan, Zhu Chun, and the others were stunned when they heard Zhu Gang's words.

Zhu Gang's opening remarks immediately killed the conversation; how could they possibly continue?

"Third Brother, Huang Zicheng has returned to Yingtian Prefecture, and he wasn't arrested by the Embroidered Uniform Guard. He risked his life to return to Yingtian Prefecture this time, probably to find and rescue Zhu Yunwen," Zhu Chun said.

"Third Brother, what exactly is going on now?"

"Third Brother, what should we do now?"

"Third Brother, do you think there's still a chance for Zhu Yunwen?"

"."

Seeing that Zhu Chun had brought the topic up directly, the others immediately stopped hiding their opinions and spoke up one after another.

"I don't know!" Zhu Gang said.

If we expose the truth, will we be able to get him imprisoned?
Think more!
Of all the people, he had the most contact with Zhu Yunwen.

Based on his understanding of Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunwen was not the kind of person who would do things unreliably; he must have made the necessary preparations before the northern expedition.

There probably won't be any major disturbances in Yingtian Prefecture.

Huang Zicheng is going to the city?
To find and rescue Zhu Yunwen?

Do you really think those Imperial Guards are just sitting around doing nothing?

He had previously learned that the death of Lady Lü was orchestrated by the Embroidered Uniform Guard at the behest of Zhu Yunwen.

With this mole in place, the Embroidered Uniform Guard would not be able to unite and help Zhu Yunwen. In that case, the matter would definitely be reported to the cabinet and the palace.

Therefore, Huang Zicheng's seemingly unnoticed actions were probably already being monitored.

"Third Brother, you can't do this!"

"Third Brother, something's not right with you!"

"Third Brother, we just wanted to talk to you about the current situation, don't overthink it."

"."

Zhu Zhen, Zhu Tan, and others spoke up.

Zhu Gang remained calm, saying nothing and not getting involved.

Beiping City!
After receiving Arutai's instructions, Dorjibo disguised himself and entered Beiping City alone without any attendants.

He had studied the Ming Dynasty in great depth.

Therefore, after entering Beiping, he did not wander aimlessly or ask people for directions on the street, but went straight to the brothels of Beiping.

In brothels and red-light districts, all sorts of people mingle, making it the easiest place to gather information.

Furthermore, getting those courtesans to talk is simple; just throw money at them.

Yunmeng Pavilion!
This is the largest brothel in Beiping.

At this moment, Yunmeng Pavilion was still bustling with activity, filled with the laughter of men and women.

"Something's not right. Given the current situation, how can the brothel business in Beiping still be so good?" Duo'er Zhibo looked at the bustling Yunmeng Pavilion in front of her, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

Normally, if the people in the city feel threatened, most of them would choose to run away directly. Even if they can't escape, they wouldn't come to brothels to seek pleasure.

He could sense that there was absolutely no panic or fear among the people coming and going at Yunmeng Pavilion.

"what's going on?"

"Something is very wrong!"

Duo'er felt a chill run down her spine.

Immediately, he took a deep breath, suppressed his doubts, and stepped into the Yunmeng Pavilion.

Once inside, he didn't waste any time and immediately started spending money, ordering a superior private room, fine wine and food, and inviting a group of girls to accompany him.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Duoerzhibo did not forget his purpose and began to inquire about the news while pretending to be indifferent: "I heard that the Northern Yuan is attacking our Beiping, but I don't see any panic among the people in the city?"

"Sir, you are unaware of the situation. Our Beiping is perfectly safe. Those Northern Yuan traitors have been fooled. They cannot breach our Beiping city."

"That's right. All the capable generals in Beiping have gone to Yingtian Prefecture with the Prince, but Prince Ning is still in Beiping. The Northern Yuan traitors probably never dreamed of this."

"Hehehe, it's all just too coincidental. But even if Prince Ning isn't in Beiping, what can those Northern Yuan traitors do? They're in big trouble now. His Majesty is leading a large army north, and I heard he's going to wipe out the grasslands."

"Whether we can wipe out the grasslands is hard to say, but this time the Great Snow Dragon Riders and Tiger Leopard Riders have both gone north. The grasslands are in big trouble. These damned Northern Yuan traitors are doomed."

"Tell me, where do these Northern Yuan traitors get the audacity to invade our Great Ming Dynasty from the south? Aren't they afraid of death? And they really know how to pick their timing for going south!"

"Hehe, who can argue with that? The Northern Yuan traitors are provoking us at this time. His Majesty has just ascended the throne and doesn't know how to establish his authority. The Northern Yuan traitors have just delivered themselves to our doorstep. The Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, I must take a good look at them and see what kind of troops they are."

"."

Once someone spoke up, the others joined in the conversation, each one displaying immense excitement.

Whether it was Zhu Quan in Beiping, or Zhu Quan's schemes against the Northern Yuan.

It was Zhu Yunwen's personal expedition after he ascended the throne.

Or perhaps it was the invincible Snow Dragon Riders and Tiger Leopard Riders.

These topics were all very attractive, and even the courtesans were no exception, their eyes shining brightly.

Duoerzhibo was completely stunned by the words spoken by the women around him. His mind went blank, and only one thought echoed in his mind: "Damn Ming Dynasty, something is definitely wrong with them. Run, run, run! We can't continue to attack and be wiped out. We have to run away as soon as possible!"
