Otherwise, if Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly couldn't hold on, then the vast Ming Dynasty would be in danger.
How could Zhu Yuanzhang not understand the hidden meaning behind this?
But he simply couldn't refute it, nor did he want to.
Because it is a fact that he should indeed find a successor as soon as possible to inherit the throne of the Ming Dynasty and ensure that the Ming Dynasty can continue to exist stably after Zhu Yuanzhang passes away.

We mustn't wrongly accuse them and trigger an unnecessary war. That would be a greater loss than gain, since war is never a game.
