When the news of Zhu Gang joining Zhu Yunwen's forces reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was extremely complicated.
Zhu Yunwen is performing better and better, which makes him feel extremely regretful. He almost destroyed the Ming Dynasty back then. Yes, he almost destroyed the Ming Dynasty.
Think about Zhu Yunwen, and then look at Zhu Yunwen now; the contrast is just too obvious.
Whether it was Zhu Di or Zhu Gang, both were unruly individuals. For Zhu Yuanzhang, it was undoubtedly the best outcome that Zhu Yunwen was able to subdue them. The submission of Zhu Gang and Zhu Di also meant that his other sons no longer dared to oppose Zhu Yunwen.
Internal strife was something Zhu Yuanzhang was very worried about, but now that problem no longer exists.
"Heaven has been kind to me, Zhu Chongba!" Zhu Yuanzhang exclaimed, gazing at the starry sky.
The third year of Tianyuan.
Zhu Gang captured Annam, and Zhu Yunwen, following the historical precedent of Zhu Di, renamed Annam Jiaozhi and dispatched troops to garrison it, ordering the search for people to teach the people of Jiaozhi the language and script of the Central Plains.
The fifth year of the Tianyuan era.
When unrest broke out on the grasslands, Zhu Yunwen issued an imperial edict, and Zhu Di led an army of 200,000 to conquer the grasslands. The grasslands split internally, and from then on, the grasslands became the backyard of the Ming Dynasty.
The eighth year of Tianyuan.
The Ming Dynasty completed its firearms reform. In the same year, the Ming Navy fleet officially entered service. In the ninth year of the Tianyuan era, Ma Sanbao led the Ming fleet to sea, officially starting the Ming Dynasty's great maritime era and giving birth to the Maritime Silk Road.
The fifteenth year of Tianyuan.
The Ming Dynasty was at its peak, becoming a giant dragon standing in the East and a paradise on earth that everyone longed for. In the same year, all nations, intimidated by the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, sent envoys to pay homage.
In the palace!
Zhu Yuanzhang and his grandson Zhu Yunwen walked slowly, while several children laughed and played in the distance. More than a decade had passed, and Zhu Yunwen now had offspring.
Watching the children playing in the distance, Zhu Yuanzhang looked relaxed, his eyes filled with affection as he gazed at his eldest grandson: "Yunwen, sometimes I have nightmares. It's fortunate you managed to capture Yingtian Prefecture back then; otherwise, I can't even imagine what the Ming Dynasty would be like now." These words came from the bottom of his heart. Without Zhu Yunwen, he truly couldn't imagine what the Ming Dynasty would be like now. With Zhu Yunwen's limited abilities, could he have held onto the throne?
Previously, he had met with Zhu Di and asked him if Zhu Yunwen would obediently guard Beiping if he were to become emperor.
He clearly remembered that Zhu Di's gaze was evasive at the time, and that he ultimately remained silent.
He knew perfectly well what silence meant.
We almost, we almost had a disaster within our own ranks!
Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.
"Father!"
"Father!"
At this moment, the children who had been playing in the distance ran over and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with curious eyes.
Zhu Yunwen said, "Come, greet your great-grandfather!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang trembled, his eyes instantly reddening, tears welling up. He had finally been forgiven.

P.S.: After such a long delay, here's a grand finale that's not the end. As you readers can see, this book was written in a fast-paced, exciting style from the beginning, but it got a bit drawn out towards the end. I apologize to all of you for that.
This is my first book on Qidian, a kind of trial run. The results weren't great, but they met my goals. I will continue to write books, most likely about the Ming Dynasty or other historical themes, and the style will still be fast-paced and exciting.
That's all for now, dear readers. See you in the new book! (End of Chapter)
