The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 111 This boy is treacherous; he must not be allowed to live.

Compared to the chaotic Yuan Dynasty in the north, the Ming Dynasty was thriving.

Both Zhu Yuanzhang's crown prince Zhu Biao and his grandson Zhu Xiong Ying possessed the aura of a king.

If these three generations were allowed to grow up, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to revive the Great Yuan on the grasslands.

Continuing to exist is a difficult thing.

What kind of person is Zhu Xiong Ying?

Li Erhai shook his head.

"There was never any file on this person before. It was only recently, when Zhu Yuanzhang and Crown Prince Zhu Biao announced their inspection tour, that this person came into the public eye!"

"The current assessment from our brothers in the south is that this person is as cunning as a fox, full of tricks and schemes. His ruthlessness is on par with Zhu Yuanzhang. He is also exceptionally cruel, decisive, and leaves no room for compromise. In some respects, he is our greatest enemy!"

Bo Yalunhai pursed his lips upon hearing this, feeling somewhat displeased.

This person is younger than me, how could he possibly have such abilities?

"Aren't you exaggerating a bit? He's just a child, how much ability could he possibly have!"

Li Erhai said something else.

"This is absolutely true. Ever since Zhu Xiong Ying gained the power of regent, he quickly secured the support of the military. His methods in court struggles are extremely shrewd. Not long ago, news came that Li Shanchang, the former Left Chancellor of the Secretariat and Duke of Han, was defeated in his struggle against him and has now resigned and returned home to retire. Zhu Xiong Ying has now firmly grasped the power of the court!"

Upon hearing this, the two were immediately shocked and turned pale.

They didn't have a direct sense of how powerful Zhu Xiong Ying was, but it was a different story for Li Shan Chang.

As the top civil officials under Zhu Yuanzhang, the four of them caused him a great deal of trouble. However, such a shrewd and experienced old man was defeated by a ten-year-old child.

If this gets out, people will laugh their heads off.

"Hai Bie, if you ever have the chance to meet Zhu Xiong Ying, never underestimate him. And if you have the opportunity, you must kill him at all costs. The Ming Dynasty has already produced one Zhu Yuanzhang, which is terrifying enough. If another Zhu Yuanzhang emerges, how will we have any chance of survival!"

Bo Yalun Haibie nodded and secretly vowed that when he met this person, he would definitely have a good fight with him.

The imperial court of Yingtian Prefecture.

A group of ministers appeared in the court.

Of course, at this time, a very unexpected figure appeared in the court, namely Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Yunwen had previously attended court and even tried to win over these nobles.

However, this kid was merely a descendant of the Crown Prince's concubine, Lady Lü, and his relationship with these military generals wasn't particularly good.

They didn't like Zhu Yunwen's personality either; he was far inferior to Zhu Xiong Ying, so no one was close to him.

Ever since he made a mistake at the last court meeting, Zhu Yunwen seemed to be shrouded in a shadow, and for a long time he did not dare to stay in the court.

Zhu Xiong Ying didn't care about any of this, but unexpectedly, he came up again this time.

Marquis Yingchuan, Fu Youde, gently patted Duke Liang, Lan Yu, who was standing to the side.

"Old Lan, what's going on? Why is Zhu Yunwen here again? Isn't he embarrassed enough already?"

Lan Yu pursed her lips.

"Who knows what this kid is thinking? I bet it's that Lu guy's doing again. But even if he comes, so what? That position is destined for U.A. High School. No one can take it from him!"

Fu Youde chuckled. "That's right, His Highness the Crown Prince really suits our temperament. We've been so happy these past few days since we haven't seen that old geezer Li Shanchang!"

"Even those usually arrogant and domineering civil officials have toned down quite a bit lately, which is truly gratifying!"

"Hu Weiyong has been making a lot of noise lately. I heard he's contacted quite a few people, and even Lu Zhongheng and Tang Shengzong's group have been won over by him!"

When Liang Guogong Lan Yu heard this, he was furious.

"Why bring up those guys? A bunch of useless sycophants. Didn't they come to see you a while ago?"

Fu Youde nodded.

"It's normal that I didn't go. After all, our relationship with Tang Shengzong has never been good. Wherever he is, I'm not. It's just that I was a little surprised that you, Lan Yu, didn't go!"

Duke Lan Yu of Liang sighed.

"To be honest, I hesitated a lot at the time, after all, they were all old brothers from Huaixi!"

"Even my godson, Lan Yong, advised me to interact more with these people!"

Fu Youde asked with great curiosity and a smile.

"Yeah, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

"I was about to agree that day, but then the brothers Wang Bi and Cao Zhen came to me and said that these people might be looking for me to deal with Xiong Ying, so I changed my mind!"

"You know my relationship with U.A. High School. Although I don't know what those old brothers are really thinking, they can mess with me, but if I mess with U.A. High School, don't blame me for being impolite!"

A voice came from behind.

"It's good that you have such an idea; you've made progress!"

The two looked back and saw that the speaker was none other than Xu Da, the Duke of Wei.

"Xu Shuai!"

The two bowed respectfully to Xu Da, especially Lan Yu, who was extremely surprised.

It should be noted that the people he admired most were Xu Da and Chang Yuchun. He learned all his skills from Chang Yuchun, but for some reason, this famous general of the time, Xu Da, just didn't like him.

This made him extremely unhappy, and he secretly resolved that he would never be inferior to Xu Da in the future.

He was extremely surprised when he heard Xu Da's words, as this seemed to be the first time Xu Da had praised him in front of everyone.

For a moment, Lan Yu felt a little embarrassed.

"Commander Xu, although I, Lan Yu, am sometimes confused, I can still distinguish between what is important and what is urgent. This matter involves Xiong Ying, so please don't blame me for being impolite!"

Xu Da nodded.

"Good to know. It's time to teach your men a lesson. And don't think I don't know how many adopted sons you have. I have the Ministry of War's roster. You probably have four or five hundred adopted sons by now. Even His Majesty's adopted sons don't have as many as you. What are you planning to do?"

"Since Xiong Ying called you 'uncle,' you should live up to that title. You should know what to do!"

After finishing speaking, he walked directly to the front row and stood there without saying a word, as if he were asleep.

Xu Da valued Lan Yu highly, believing he had the potential to become a famous general.

However, the power of the Duke of Wei's mansion is already very strong. Lan Yu's military power is all inherited from Chang Yuchun's connections. If the two of them get along well, what will the superior think?
