SFS Chapter 218 Visiting Zhu Yunhuan
Chapter 218 Visiting Zhu Yunhuan
Fang Xiaoru usually had a high opinion of himself and valued his reputation, so he rarely interacted with other people.
Such people are exactly the few people Zhu Yuanzhang can trust now.
"To assist the emperor and the country, I shall do my best."
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang trusted him so much, Fang Xiaoru knelt down again.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang killed some people indiscriminately, he was still good to the people. Assisting such a person was not considered a mistake for the country.
"You should do the same to our beloved grandson."
Seeing Fang Xiaoru so loyal, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction.
Each of these civil and military officials is very skilled.
It's fine when I'm here, but if I'm not here, that young man won't be able to scare them tomorrow.
I must leave behind a few useful talents for tomorrow while I am still alive.
In the imperial prison, a teenage boy wearing brocade clothes was locked in a cell, seeming out of place in this dim environment.
Unlike the mortals around him who were wailing in pain, Zhu Yunhuan sat on the thatch, looking quietly ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.
Even if he was imprisoned, he was still the emperor's grandson. Without the emperor's order, these Jinyiwei would not make things difficult for him.
"General, King Yan."
Only after hearing the voice of the person guarding the door did Zhu Yunhuan turn around and look at the door.
"Yunxun."
Lan Yu and Zhu Di walked into the imperial prison and shouted with concern.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Zhu Yunhuan was safe and sound in the imperial prison.
They had asked about it in the court during the day, and although His Majesty was still unwilling to release Zhu Yunhuan, he did not stop them from coming to visit.
"General, King Yan."
Facing Lan Yu and Zhu Di, even though he was in shackles, Zhu Yunhuan still bowed respectfully.
"Nephew, let's not be so polite."
Zhu Di casually reached his hand into the cell and helped Zhu Yunhuan, who was bending down to salute, up.
He was used to staying in the military camp and didn't care about these cumbersome etiquette.
"Your Majesty..."
Seeing this, the Jinyiwei at the side hurried over and spoke out to dissuade him.
In normal prisons, they do not allow others to have such close contact with prisoners.
"What? We can't even touch each other as a family?"
Zhu Di frowned and frightened the Jinyiwei with just one look.
He has led troops for many years, and his murderous aura is not something that the Jinyiwei can stop.
"Open the door, and let us have a good chat."
Seeing that the Jinyiwei didn't dare to speak, Zhu Di became more aggressive and shouted.
It's quite tiring to talk through the railing.
This time, the Jinyiwei was also in a dilemma, and he regretted his impulsiveness countless times in his heart.
"Hurry up!"
Lan Yu, who was standing by, saw the Jinyiwei hesitating and urged them on.
The Jinyiwei had no choice but to hand over the key with a bitter face.
He had no choice but to obey these two great men who were used to being soldiers in the military camp.
"If you have anything to say, just go to His Majesty and report us." Zhu Di impatiently snatched the key and opened the door.
"Uncle Emperor."
Watching Zhu Di open the door, Zhu Yunhuan bowed deeply again.
"Yunxun, tell the emperor's uncle honestly, what is going on?"
Zhu Di walked up to Zhu Yunhuan and asked in a low voice with a serious face.
He never believed that Zhu Yunhuan, a prince, would ever use poisonous insects.
There must be some unspeakable secret behind this.
Because of Zhu Di's status as a prince, the other Jinyiwei did not dare to come over and eavesdrop.
"This matter is related to the position of crown prince... Yunxun can only say that I was framed."
Zhu Yunhuan lowered his head and shook it, but was unwilling to reveal too much.
Too many people are involved now, so you have to solve your own problems yourself.
After hearing Zhu Yunhuan's words, Zhu Di and Lan Yu both fell silent.
If it was just Zhu Yunhuan who was framed, they could still help.
But if this matter is really related to the position of crown prince, then there is too much alcohol involved.
They are far away from the frontier, and their influence in the court is ultimately limited.
"I assure you, my uncle, that Zhu Yunhuan is not coveting the throne, he just wants to find the truth."
Looking at the two people who fell silent, Zhu Yunhuan just smiled bitterly, but his eyes were full of determination.
He might even give up being a vassal king, but he would not back down on this one matter.
After he finished speaking, the entire cell fell silent again.
"Grandson, don't worry. For your mother's sake, I will rescue you."
After a while, Lan Yu raised his hand and patted Zhu Yunhuan on the shoulder.
The child's mother is the daughter of former general Chang Yuchun, and that is enough.
"General, the Emperor will not kill me. At worst, he will depose me and let me become a commoner."
Zhu Yunhuan smiled. He had already made up his mind when he embarked on this path.
"If you can't stay in the court, come to me. It will be hard, but at least no one dares to touch you."
Lan Yu sighed and said again.
Although he couldn't control too much of the court, the palace's hands couldn't reach into his military camp.
Zhu Yunhuan is absolutely safe there.
When Zhu Di and Lan Yu walked out of the imperial prison, Lan Yu sighed again.
The position of crown prince is related to this, and he is not sure he can rescue this kid Zhu Yunhuan.
"Lord Yan, what's wrong with you?"
He turned to look at Zhu Di, as if he had not heard Zhu Di speak since he heard Zhu Yunhuan talk about the position of crown prince.
"Nothing, I'll go back first."
Zhu Di raised his head in surprise, met Lan Yu's puzzled eyes, smiled awkwardly, and walked quickly forward.
"This kid, what's wrong with this?"
Lan Yu looked at Zhu Di's back and could only shake his head helplessly.
This matter is no longer something he can control now.
Back in his tent, a bald monk in black looked at Zhu Di and chuckled, "Your Highness, are you back from the imperial prison?"
"how do you know?"
Zhu Di looked at the black-robed monk warily and asked in a deep voice.
"Since the death of the crown prince, the heir can only be chosen from among the emperor's grandsons, otherwise the situation will be unstable."
The monk still chuckled and spoke slowly.
Seeing this, Zhu Di panicked and hurried forward to cover the monk's mouth.
This is a military camp, who can guarantee that no one is eavesdropping?
"Don't worry, I have already transferred the person away."
The black-robed monk gently moved Zhu Di's hand away and continued speaking.
"With the background of a county prince, even if he doesn't want to, he will inevitably be dragged into the fight for the crown prince position."
After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked directly into Zhu Di's eyes with his deep black eyes.
"Your Highness, to whom do you think the current emperor will pass the throne of crown prince?"
The black-robed monk's words were more of a question than an inquiry.
In response to his questioning, Zhu Di fell silent and clenched his fists.
