Yao Guangxiao was a little flustered at this moment, a feeling he had never experienced before.
So he prepared to leave and give a proper report to Prince Yan, Zhu Di, about what he had seen that day.
Just as he was about to leave, Zhu Yunwen seemed to remember something and said:
"By the way, with the end of the year approaching, Fourth Uncle should have arrived in Nanjing by now."
Yao Guangxiao hurriedly replied, "Your Highness, that is indeed the case. His Highness the Prince of Yan has already entered Nanjing and should be meeting His Majesty by now."
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly and said:
"Then please pass on another message to my fourth uncle: tell him not to think too much about the military power in the north. From now on, the regional princes will not control the military."
He could just be a local king and live a peaceful life, at most only controlling some local affairs and people's livelihood.
As for military power, it doesn't need to be controlled or controlled by the vassal king. Go back and remind him not to have any more unrealistic ambitions, lest he bring disaster upon himself.
Yao Guangxiao's face darkened, and he regretted coming to see Zhu Yunwen today, because he really couldn't convey these words to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di had always wanted to control some military power, but Zhu Yunwen repeatedly found ways to take it away from him, and didn't even give him any chance to regain it.
When Zhu Di entered the capital this time, he tried to find ways to get some troops from Zhu Yuanzhang, but he didn't expect Zhu Yunwen to give him such a positive answer.
As we all know, Zhu Yuanzhang now listens to Zhu Yunwen very much. If Zhu Yunwen speaks so resolutely, Zhu Yuanzhang probably won't refuse him.
Yao Guangxiao had no choice but to speak:
"I will certainly convey His Highness the Crown Prince's words to His Highness the Prince of Yan."
Zhu Yunwen said, "Now that I've finished discussing the matter of the Prince of Yan, I also have a warning for you."
Yao Guangxiao tensed up and looked at Zhu Yuntong, who said calmly:
"When people call you a demonic monk, it's definitely a compliment. Whether you are a demonic monk or not, and whether you have any extraordinary abilities, you know the answer in your heart."
Don't engage in deception or trickery, fooling yourself and others. If one day those false titles deceive even yourself, that wouldn't be a good thing.
Yao Guangxiao paused slightly, then quickly said:
"Your Highness's reminder has been remembered by this old monk. Farewell..."
With that, Yao Guangxiao quickly turned around and left without looking back.
Zhu Yuntong's words had already established a mysterious image in Yao Guangxiao's mind, making Yao Guangxiao feel that Zhu Yuntong was unfathomable and unfathomable.
At the same time, Zhu Yunwen was able to see through Yao Guangxiao, which gave Yao Guangxiao a hint that Zhu Yunwen was more capable than him.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yunwen thwarted Yao Guangxiao and Prince Yan Zhu Di's ambitions to seize military power.
A few words then shattered Yao Guangxiao's composure, making him doubt himself and realize that he might not be as capable as he thought.
This made him very anxious; if someone else had said such a thing, he might not have taken it seriously.
But Zhu Yuncong is indeed even more mysterious and unpredictable than him.
The words spoken are enough to influence his mood and mind.
To attack someone, you must attack their mind; to kill someone, you must destroy their spirit.
Zhu Yunwen has taken these two points to the extreme, which will likely cause Yao Guangxiao to doubt himself and develop inner demons.
Zhu Yunwen, on the other hand, would be like a mountain in his heart, pressing down on him and taking away his confidence and composure that he had in control of the world.
Watching the old monk leave, Zhao Qingzhu scratched his head and said:
"Why does this old monk seem so flustered after your brief conversation?"
Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly and said, "Sometimes, some intelligent people are easily defeated by simple words. Of course, this method will definitely not work on you."
Zhao Qingzhu didn't realize that Zhu Yuntong was teasing her for being clueless. Instead, she asked in confusion, "Why doesn't it work on me?"
Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhao Qingzhu and said:
"Because you don't understand what it means at all, how could it possibly hurt you!"
After saying this, Zhu Yunwen laughed heartily and rode his horse into the city. Zhao Qingzhu, on the other hand, looked unhappy, her face fell, and she pouted.
After entering the city, Zhu Yunwen and Zhao Qingzhu bid each other farewell, and Zhao Qingzhu returned to her home.
Zhu Yunwen, on the other hand, went straight back to the palace.
When they arrived outside the Imperial Study, the eunuch informed them that Prince Yan, Zhu Di, was discussing matters with Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yunwen didn't care and went straight in.
Then I saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting in that chair, his face expressionless.
Zhu Di, on the other hand, kept talking, looking anxious with a hint of longing in his eyes.
After Zhu Yunwen entered, Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted Zhu Di and stood up to say to Zhu Yunwen:
"Yunhu is back?"
Zhu Yunwen quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"No need for formalities, come and sit down. We are listening to your fourth uncle report on the situation in the north."
Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly, took a few steps forward, glanced at Zhu Di, and Zhu Di also stood up and bowed to Zhu Yunwen.
"Your subject greets His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhu Yunwen quickly returned the greeting, saying, "Fourth Uncle, there's no need for such formalities."
On the surface, the two seemed quite polite to each other, but what they were really thinking was anyone's guess.
Zhu Di, smiling, continued speaking to Zhu Yunwen:
"Your grandson has accomplished quite a few great things this time, and your fourth uncle is happy for you when he hears about it."
