Chapter 68: Zhu Yunwen's Conjecture



"Your Majesty is so quick-witted. I think it will be a sure thing if Your Highness Changsun goes there in person."

Liu He immediately flattered her, but there was a hint of smirk at the corner of his mouth after he finished speaking.

The more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was quite good.

"It is not appropriate to make the eldest grandson's identity public at this time. Liu He, please help us think of a way to arrange for the eldest grandson to go."

"It may be too late today, so let's notify Xiaoling Mausoleum and start the work tomorrow."

Zhu Yuanzhang gave the order with a smile, the wrinkles on his face squeezed together.

"I obey your order."

Liu He bowed and replied, his mind spinning, trying to think of a way to get His Royal Highness Changsun to go, as it had little to do with His Majesty.

To make a living in the palace, you have to have a flexible mind.

After a moment's hesitation, Liu He said, "Your Majesty, I have a solution, but it may be a little unfair to Your Highness Changsun."

Zhu Yuanzhang heard this and said, "You tell me first."

Liu He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Changsun is currently running a teahouse by the Qinhuai River. His breakfast is very famous, and even this old servant often hears about it in the palace."

“Although I have never tasted it, I think it must taste extraordinary.”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but say with some pride: "My grandson's breakfast is really unique. In my opinion, all the delicacies in the world are not as good as his breakfast."

Hearing this, Liu He's thoughts were immediately finalized, and he said, "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then I will notify the Palace Supervisor."

"Under the pretext of the royal memorial service, let His Royal Highness Changsun arrange for a group of people to go there early. With this statement, His Royal Highness Changsun will naturally not doubt it."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he laughed and said, "You are so good, Liu He. You let our grandson send breakfast to our grandson for the memorial ceremony. Not bad, not bad, haha!"

Seeing that His Majesty was very pleased, Liu He knew that his words touched His Majesty's heart. He rolled his eyes and said:

"Your Majesty, perhaps you can buy some more. That is, you can also send some to Her Majesty for her to taste."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his smile stopped abruptly.

A trace of sadness appeared on his face.

When Liu He saw this, his heart skipped a beat and he wanted to slap himself.

What a bad mouth. Why mention the Queen when there are so many other people to mention? Aren't you just asking for trouble?

Then Zhu Yuanzhang sighed leisurely: "Liu He, you are great. You can help me remember my elder sister."

"Even if we all forget about it, we just enjoy ourselves."

"Fortunately you reminded me. If I go downstairs one day and see the eldest sister, I will talk to her about our eldest grandson."

"If she asks me what the breakfast made by my eldest grandson tastes like, I don't know how to answer."

"I really shouldn't have kept talking about him everyday and forgot about things like this."

"Liu He, you are thoughtful."

Hearing this, Liu He immediately felt relieved.

Before Zhu Ying appeared, the Queen was a taboo in the palace.

If anyone mentions it, His Majesty might go crazy.

Since Zhu Ying appeared, Liu He could also feel that His Majesty's heart had become much more stable.

"This is my duty."

Liu He bowed and said.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, thought deeply for a moment, and then ordered: "You have to tell our eldest grandson, and send a portion to the palace for his father to taste."

After hesitating for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to think of Zhu Yunhuan and his granddaughter Zhu Mingyue, whom he happened to see in the Renzhi Hall.

Added: "Get some more and bring some for his brothers and sisters."

"Our eldest grandson left the palace early, so these brothers and sisters probably don't have much impression of him as their big brother."

Upon hearing this, Liu He hurriedly said, "I obey your order."

Chunhe Hall, East Palace.

"Your Highness, I got some information from a good friend. It turned out to be just as we guessed. The method of using work as relief was presented to Your Majesty by the Prince of Yan."

Huang Zicheng said affirmatively.

After learning the situation from Yao Guangxiao, he left quickly and went to the East Palace of the Imperial Palace to discuss with Zhu Yunwen.

"I knew it, I knew it was my fourth uncle. Who else would allow the Emperor to visit him so frequently?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunwen clenched his fists and spoke through gritted teeth.

He immediately understood that his fourth uncle was trying every means to seize his position as crown prince.

The most important thing is that the emperor seemed to be affected by it.

In recent times, he has been spending less and less time with the Emperor, and he feels something is wrong.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I think that the sudden good relationship between Your Majesty and the King of Yan must be due to something we don't know. It's definitely not just this."

"There is no reason why Your Majesty would suddenly become so close to the King of Yan."

Huang Zicheng pondered for a while and then analyzed it.

He believed that there was definitely a crucial factor that led to His Majesty's sudden closeness with Prince Yan.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunwen nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, I remembered the scene in my mind where the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Jiang Li, stopped His Majesty and avoided me.

"Sir, do you think this matter has anything to do with the Royal Guards?"

Zhu Yunwen asked hesitantly.

He trusted Huang Zicheng very much and had discussed Jiang Li's matter with Huang Zicheng.

After hearing Zhu Yunwen's reminder, Huang Zicheng suddenly felt as if something had suddenly dawned on him.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that there is a connection between the Jinyiwei and the Prince of Yan.

Thinking of this, he was shocked and exclaimed: "Could it be that the King of Yan colluded with Jiang Li, and the two of them secretly conspired to succeed?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yunwen was also shocked, and subconsciously said: "If this is the case, I will report it to Grandpa Huang immediately."

Then he said angrily: "The Jinyiwei is notorious. It is absolutely possible that they would do such a thing. I want to remind Grandpa Huang to be careful."

Thinking of Jiang Li guarding the emperor day and night, Zhu Yunwen had a bad feeling in his heart.

It's easy to think in the direction of conspiracy.

"No, I'm going to tell Grandpa Huang now."

Zhu Yunwen stood up and said that he wanted to go directly to the emperor to explain the matter clearly.

We must never allow the Jinyiwei to collude with Fourth Uncle.

Seeing Zhu Yunwen so anxious, Huang Zicheng quickly persuaded him, "Your Highness, don't do that!"

"Sir, such an important matter cannot be delayed. If it is late, who knows what big problems may arise." Zhu Yunwen said anxiously.

In his heart, Grandpa Huang is in danger at any time.

"Your Highness, even if the Royal Guards have some dealings with the Prince of Yan, they would never dare to have any ill intentions. After all, Your Highness is the legitimate ruler at the moment, so they can only act in secret and slowly gain the favor of Your Majesty."

Huang Zicheng was very aware of His Majesty's majesty and spoke quickly.

After hearing this, Zhu Yunwen felt that there was some truth in it, so he stopped.

Huang Zicheng saw this and said again: "The most urgent thing is that we have to find a way to secretly investigate the matter between Prince Yan and the Jinyiwei."

"As long as there is evidence to prove that the Prince of Yan is in collusion with the Jinyiwei, then given your Majesty's temperament, the Crown Prince does not need to worry about any other changes."
