Chapter 1419
"Now...the timing is perfect!"
Reminded by the monk Daoyan, Zhu Di immediately seized the opportunity and, once again with eloquent words, persuaded Zhu Yuanzhang to decide to send troops to resolve the matter.
After saying that, he felt much more at ease.
After all, his previous persuasion of his father to send troops involved some deceptive rhetoric about bombardment, but now he felt that his argument was entirely reasonable and based on solid evidence, and that he was genuinely considering the interests of the Ming Dynasty...
There's no reason for my own father not to agree.
Even the usually annoying Lu Wei seemed to agree with his point this time, and didn't contradict him as before.
The monk Daoyan had regained his composure and stood aside with one hand in a palm-up gesture, quietly waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to give the order to "send troops".
His expression subtly conveyed a sense of anticipation and excitement.
For nothing else.
It was for his rival... This time, he was not only facing the nobles of Huaixi, but also Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor who had been tricked by him into faking his death to escape. If the Hongwu Emperor had simply retired under the identity of Huang Shiliu, that would have been fine, but now that he was not retiring, he was going to return to the capital, so it was impossible for him not to settle accounts with that person.
"This time, you'll have nowhere to hide, won't you?" Monk Daoyan looked south and silently said to his unknown opponent.
As for Zhu Yuanzhang...
He had been beaming with joy as he watched his grandson escape unscathed from a seemingly hopeless situation, but that joy had now vanished.
Because Zhu Di's words were indeed correct!
He seems to have been a little too happy too soon.
"Father, there's no time to lose!"
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang fall silent, Zhu Di waited a moment and then couldn't help but urge him on.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew from the outskirts of the city, causing the thin sheets of intelligence in his hand to rustle slightly. This reminded Zhu Yuanzhang that he still had something to do: "Wait, don't rush, we haven't finished reading it yet, let's take a look first!"
He had just breathed a sigh of relief, and was so excited and happy that he was so focused on showing off to the people in front of him that he almost forgot he still had two pages of intelligence to read...
"Even if we are to send troops, we must first find out as much as possible about the situation in Yingtian Prefecture." As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression turned serious again, and he lowered his head to continue reading.
Clearly, Zhu Di's words had indeed persuaded him, and he had already made up his mind to send troops to completely resolve the issue of the Huaixi nobles.
So it is.
Upon hearing this, both Zhu Di and the monk Daoyan were overjoyed, exchanging a knowing glance: "It's done! It's secure!"
For them, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang, their living father, was willing to step in, everything would be fine.
Lu Wei didn't say anything more at this point.
He simply stood quietly beside Zhu Yuanzhang, waiting for him to speak. By now, he had dispelled his earlier concerns, so as long as His Majesty needed him, he would simply obey orders and do whatever was asked of him.
With each person preoccupied with their own thoughts, a moment of silence fell over the room.
Just a little while later.
But then Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, and before he knew it, his face was once again adorned with that same grinning, eager-to-show-off expression.
He raised his hand and waved, laughing loudly, "Hahahaha! What the hell are we supposed to do with sending troops?! What use are we?! Let's go back to Beiping and farm! Hahahaha!"
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's smile stretched almost to his ears.
He now understood why Jiang Huan was in such a hurry... It turned out that the little wolf cub hadn't used any clever tricks to temporarily fool Lan Yu and his group of ruthless people; he had directly uprooted the whole thing!
Why would I even bother going? Am I just going to Yingtianfu to watch the melons?
only……
Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.
Zhu Di and the monk Daoyan were completely dumbfounded. They were so shocked that they stared in disbelief, even wondering if they had misheard—no troops? Back to farming in Beiping? They didn't need him?
What does it mean?
Why did they suddenly change their minds about sending troops? What's going on?
Zhu Di looked at the monk Daoyan, and the monk Daoyan looked at Zhu Di... When they saw each other's stunned and bewildered expressions, they realized that they had not misheard at all!
"But... why not send troops? Why???" Zhu Di, who thought the matter was settled, was now in jeopardy. Naturally, he was extremely frustrated and had almost forgotten to control his emotions and maintain his persona, so he questioned Zhu Di.
The monk Daoyan also completely lost his composure, staring straight at Zhu Yuanzhang, his brow furrowing with countless wrinkles.
