"It's a T-shaped camp. If you don't have military authority, you still can't enter."

Xu Miaojin looked at Zhu Ming and knew that it was impossible for them to enter the Dingzi Camp, so she could only sigh helplessly.

"Uncle Zhu is really something. We suppressed the mutiny in Shanxi and have made great contributions, but he didn't even bother to give us some military power."

She complained and pouted, directing her criticism at Zhu Yuanzhang who was still in the Daming Palace.

The last time they came back after making contributions, Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded them with a lot of jewelry and money, but there was no reward at all.

Otherwise, if they were given the position of general, they would not be driven out of the barracks.

"correct!"

Hearing Xu Miaojin's complaints, Zhu Ming reacted immediately and looked at her with gratitude.

Seeing Zhu Ming suddenly excited, Xu Miaojin was also startled. She reached out and touched his forehead: "What's wrong with you? Are you going crazy?"

"I am fine."

Zhu Ming held Xu Miaojin's hand and looked at her excitedly. It was Xu Miaojin's words just now that made him think of a way to break the impasse.

Although they do not have military power now, there is someone who can help them get it.

"Come on, let's go to your house!"

As he spoke, Zhu Ming took Xu Miaojin's hand and got into the carriage.

Mu Ruanjun watched from the side, shook his head helplessly, and got into the carriage.

"Let's go to Duke Wei's Mansion."

Seeing that everyone had boarded the carriage, Zhu Ming could not wait to order the driver to go straight to the Duke of Wei's mansion.

"What are you going to do at my house? My father has not led troops for a long time."

After knowing that Zhu Ming was going to her home, Xu Miaojin was a little puzzled and hurried to explain.

Her father, Xu Da, Duke of Wei, did still have prestige in the army, but he had long since stopped caring about military affairs.

What do you want to see him for?

"You'll know then."

Zhu Ming responded perfunctorily and looked towards the door intently.

"Your Highness, we have arrived at the Duke of Wei's residence."

Upon hearing that the Duke of Wei's mansion had arrived, Zhu Ming immediately dismounted and ran straight into the mansion.

"Hey, this is my house!"

Seeing Zhu Ming so anxious, Xu Miaojin also jumped out and ran behind Zhu Ming.

Looking at Zhu Ming going in and out of the Duke of Wei's Mansion, one might think that the Duke of Wei's Mansion belongs to him.

"These two guys."

Mu Ruanjun slowly got off the carriage, and seeing that Zhu Ming and Xu Miaojin were about to disappear from his sight, he sighed helplessly, took light steps, and slowly followed behind.

"Junior Zhu Ming greets Duke Wei."

Zhu Ming entered the Duke of Wei's mansion and went straight to the Duke of Wei's room. His voice was heard before he even arrived.

"Hey, the little prince is here."

Seeing Zhu Ming coming, Xu Da hurriedly stood up from his chair and walked forward to greet him.

Zhu Ming, however, had already taken a step ahead, supported Duke Wei, and carefully put him back to his chair.

"Duke Wei, I am also your junior, so there is no need for such great courtesy."

Zhu Ming looked at Xu Da and smiled awkwardly.

I am just a junior in front of Xu Da, how can I accept his gift?

Xu Da just laughed a few times.

"Dad, I'm back."

Xu Miaojin followed Zhu Ming into the room. When she saw Xu Da, she immediately stopped, behaved more dignifiedly, and called out to him in a nice and obedient manner.

"Where have you been playing again, little girl?"

When Xu Da met Xu Miaojin, he also looked helpless.

Xu Miaojin is a little girl who not only practices swordplay and stick playing all day long, but also runs around everywhere.

Last time, she even cried and made a fuss about going to Shanxi, and I had no choice but to agree to let her go.

I am finding it increasingly difficult to discipline her.

"I went to the military camp with Zhu Ming."

When asked by Xu Da, Xu Miaojin responded excitedly.

She had always wanted to visit the military camp, and this time she finally fulfilled her wish.

Although he hadn't even entered the T-shaped camp yet, he was driven out.

Thinking about how she was pushed out of the military camp, Xu Miaojin still couldn't get over it and pouted in dissatisfaction.

"My little daughter has been spoiled since she was young. I am sorry to have caused trouble for Your Highness."

Hearing that Xu Miaojin and Zhu Ming went to the military camp, Xu Da looked at Zhu Ming apologetically again.

This girl is such a headache and I can't live in peace.

"No, it was the junior who took her there."

Zhu Ming quickly shook his head. After all, he was the one who left a message for Xu Miaojin, asking her to find him at the military camp outside the city.

"I see. I was wrong about her."

Upon hearing this, Xu Da nodded in sudden realization, waved towards Xu Miaojin, and called her over.

Xu Miaojin then walked over reluctantly and stood beside Xu Da.

"By the way, what are you doing in the military camp?"

Reaching out and touching his precious daughter's head, Xu Da looked at Zhu Ming and the others curiously.

What were two little kids doing going to the military camp for no reason?

"I was just curious, so I went to take a look."

Zhu Ming responded calmly, and then moved towards Xu Da as if he was gossiping.

"Duke Wei, do you know about the Dingzi Camp?"

Even though Xu Da no longer interferes in military affairs, with his influence, he should still be able to solve the problem with a T-shaped camp.

"I know that, but I haven't asked about military affairs for a long time. Why are you asking this, Your Highness?"

When asked by Zhu Ming, Xu Da became even more curious.

He knew about the Dingzi Camp, but he had no idea why Zhu Ming came to see him.

Seeing that Zhu Ming was about to become his son-in-law, if he could help him in any way, he would naturally help him.

"Duke Wei should know about Wang Ganju's affairs."

Since he wanted to ask Duke Wei for help, he couldn't hide anything.

Moreover, relying solely on Xu Miaojin, Zhu Ming was certain that Duke Wei was on his side.

"Could it be that this matter has something to do with him?"

Duke Wei frowned slightly, then became serious.

The death of Wang Ganju was indeed more profound than he thought.

Zhu Ming nodded, and then told everything that had happened between him and Wang Ganju.

Including the incident in which Wang Ganju's entire family was wiped out in Hunan.

Hearing this, Xu Da's face became even gloomier.

He also didn't expect that Zhu Ming would get into this trouble just because he went to provide disaster relief.

However, he did not mean to blame Zhu Ming. He stepped down from his position as the most prominent figure in the founding of the Ming Dynasty and ignored the court from then on because he knew the dangers in the palace.

It was because he understood this that he was able to escape unscathed.

Even in a few major cases, Hu Weiyong and his men were slaughtered, but he was not hurt at all.

But Zhu Ming is different from himself. He is a member of the palace and has no way to protect himself.

"So, you think that the people who disappeared from Dingziying might be the ones who killed Wang Ganju's family?"

His face turned cold, his tone lost its previous kindness, and his eyes were so deep that they seemed to be able to see through people's souls.
