Suddenly, it seemed some people were beginning to feel fear. Zhu Yuanzhang's formidable reputation not only commanded the submission of civil and military officials, but also among the imperial clan—who among them wasn't Zhu Yuanzhang's son or grandson, and who among them didn't tremble in fear at the sight of him?
