Hearing the sudden sound outside the main hall, everyone in the court was stunned once again.

The voice sounded somewhat familiar to them, yet it was also extremely authoritative, carrying a domineering aura that instilled a sense of fear.

For some reason, everyone present felt a strange sense of fear when they heard that voice.

Zhu Yuanzhang was startled; he recognized the voice all too well. He immediately looked outside the hall, as if he wanted to stand up and say something.

But reason told him that this was unlikely to happen, so he restrained himself and did not immediately stand up and lose his composure.

At the same time, all the civil and military officials in the hall turned their heads to look outside.

Outside the main hall, Zhu Yunwen, dressed in a four-clawed python robe, waved his sleeve and walked in with unparalleled domineering presence.

The moment he entered the main hall, fear was evident on the faces of almost everyone present.

Especially the prince of Chechi Kingdom and Prince Zhu Gang of Jin.

The two people stood frozen in place, their eyes wide and mouths agape, their expressions of fear and dread indescribable.

Seeing Zhu Yunwen was like seeing a ghost.

I can't believe it, I dare not believe it, I cannot believe what I'm seeing.

Zhu Yunwen?

He said, "Aren't you already dead?"

How could a dead person reappear here?

Moreover, it seems that it is completely unharmed.

Zhu Yuanzhang also saw Zhu Yunwen at this moment. He was certain that the person walking towards him was Zhu Yunwen. His temperament and demeanor were absolutely unmistakable.

The key point is that Zhao Qingzhu was standing next to Zhu Yunwen, which confirms that it was indeed the Grandson of the Ming Dynasty who was rumored to have died, the Grandson of the Ming Dynasty to whom Zhu Yunwen had placed all his hopes and led the Ming Dynasty to a higher level.

He didn't die; he returned safely.

At this critical moment, when even Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know what to do, he returned.

Zhu Yunwen ignored the gazes of everyone present and strode forward to the center of the court.

Then he waved his sleeve again, bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang, and said:

"Grandson greets Your Majesty. I have not appeared for a long time, which has made Your Majesty worry."

Zhu Yuanzhang then came to his senses. He looked at Zhu Yunwen, his old eyes filled with tears, and then, with trembling hands, began to speak:

"Yunwen, it really is you... Thank goodness, it really is you... You're alright..."

Zhu Yunwen slowly straightened up and said:

"Grandpa, rest assured, I am fine."

"Good...good...it's alright...that's good, it's good that everything's alright. The Crown Prince is back, the Crown Prince of the Great Ming is back, haha, may Heaven bless the Great Ming, may Heaven bless the Crown Prince..."

The officials below gradually came to their senses, and then they all knelt on the ground, shouting in unison:

"May Heaven bless the Ming Dynasty, may Heaven bless the Crown Prince..."

Only the King and Prince of Chechi Kingdom, along with Zhu Zhu Gang, remained standing there, somewhat stunned, unaware of what was happening.

This feeling of despair was difficult for them to accept for a while.

Zhu Yunwen turned around and first glanced at the father and son of Chechi Kingdom, then at Prince Jin, Zhu Gang.

Just that one glance was enough to frighten the three of them into immediately looking away, avoiding Zhu Yunwen's gaze.

Zhu Yunwen didn't say much, but walked up the steps one by one, then walked to the dragon throne and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, saying:

"Grandpa, you've worked hard these past few days."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were red. Ever since he learned of Zhu Yunwen's death, he hadn't been able to sleep or eat for several nights. He seemed to have aged considerably in an instant.

Later, he had no choice but to continue to shoulder the responsibilities of the emperor and forcefully maintain control of the overall situation.

Only when he saw the grandson of the crown prince return did he finally feel a great weight lifted off his shoulders and relax.

It finally showed an old man who, in a state of despair, managed to hold on and saw a glimmer of hope.

Those who haven't experienced these emotional changes have no idea how difficult it is.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Your Majesty can finally rest easy. The Ming Dynasty can't do without you, and Your Majesty can't do without you either."

Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly, then helped Zhu Yuanzhang sit down, and then spoke:

"Grandpa, please sit down. Leave everything else to your grandson..."

As he spoke, Zhu Yunwen turned around, stood atop the high steps, looked down at the officials below, and then said calmly:

"My esteemed subjects, please rise."

With so many officials present, they finally dared to stand up. Their feelings were quite complicated.

Those officials who had steadfastly supported Zhu Yunwen from beginning to end were overjoyed.

However, a very small number of officials, after learning of Zhu Yunwen's death, were bribed by Zhu Gang and secretly pledged allegiance to Prince Jin, Zhu Gang.

Upon seeing Zhu Yunwen return, they were naturally filled with immense worry.

After all, the actions taken by Prince Zhu Gang of Jin after the news of Zhu Yunwen's death were quite evident to all.

Everyone knows that he wants to be the heir to the Ming Dynasty and become the crown prince. That's why he submitted the memorial requesting to come to the capital and secretly colluded with many officials and local military commanders.

Their conspiracy and purpose are obviously obvious.

Right now, in the imperial court, they are doing their utmost to help Chechi Kingdom clear its name and want to cooperate with Chechi Kingdom to help Chechi Kingdom get rid of the suspicion of killing Zhu Yunwen.
