"Ah?" Zhu Cilang exclaimed in surprise, "Why did you say that, sir?"
Before answering the question, Ni Yuanlu raised another question: "I have a question for Your Highness. Now that Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong are dead, and Shadingzhou in Yunnan has been pacified. Except for some small-scale bandits and robbers in some places, there is basically no war in other places, right?"
Zhu Cilang nodded.
Ni Yuanlu showed a meaningful expression: "Since there is no war, there is no need for Your Highness to supervise the country, right?"
"That's right." Zhu Cilang nodded again.
"Since there is no need for a regent, why doesn't Your Majesty allow His Highness to return to the capital?"

After thinking for a while, Zhu Cilang bowed deeply to Ni Yuanlu and said, "Please enlighten me, sir."
