Daming: I really don’t want to be an emperor!

Zhu Zhen immediately saw what Zhu Gui was thinking.

He wanted to sow discord between the uncle and nephew, take the opportunity to create chaos, muddy the waters, and spy on the magic weapon.

In the third year of Hongwu, Zhu Gui was named King of Qi and was granted fiefdom in Qingzhou. In the twenty-third year of Hongwu, Zhu Gui led his guards and the troops from Xu and Pi in Shandong to follow King of Yan Zhu Di in the northern expedition.

The following year, he led the guards to attack again. Zhu Yuanzhang warned him that when he encountered an enemy, he should form his own formation to fight the enemy, and not to compete for credit with other generals when he won a victory.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang had led many expeditions to the frontier and won some victories, he was quite proud of his military abilities and acted more and more unscrupulously.

It is natural for him to be ambitious, but this is not the time to show it.

"Sixth brother, that's not what I meant. I just want to say that we can't just sit there and wait for death!" Zhu Gui seemed a little embarrassed after Zhu Zhen saw through his thoughts.

Zhu Zhen responded calmly, "If the king wants his subjects to die, and the subjects do not die, they are disloyal. Being in the emperor's family, don't you even have this awareness?" This sentence was like a sharp sword, instantly piercing Zhu Zhen's defense line.

Zhu Yu was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute. Zhu Zhen's words made it impossible for him to continue arguing.

On the rooftop, the Jinyiwei of the Northern Pacification Division were listening carefully to their conversation and writing down every word in detail.

The Jinyiwei were everywhere in the palace, even hiding in the flower beds.

"It's unfair! It's unfair! I want to see the emperor! I want to see His Majesty! I want justice! Let me out."

Inside the prison, Zhu Yunwen pulled at the cell door and shouted loudly. His voice echoed in the silent prison, sounding particularly desolate.

His face was full of despair and anger, and tears were flashing in his eyes, as if he had lost all hope.

Zhu Yunwen could never have imagined that he would go from being a noble grandson of the emperor to being a prisoner thrown into this dark and gloomy prison.

Back then, he was the focus of everyone's attention. He was about to be named the crown prince and become the future emperor, enjoying endless wealth and glory.

Even when Zhu Yunhuan came to power, he only went to the military camp to clean the toilet.

But now, he was trapped in this cold cell, living with rats and eating rough food.

He couldn't accept this gap.

"Stop arguing. Once you enter this prison, no matter if you are a high-ranking official or a prince, you are a prisoner. It is useless to cry out for justice. Countless people have cried out for justice and asked to see the emperor, but it is useless."

The jailer yawned.

Zhu Yunwen ignored the jailer and continued to bang on the cell door, shouting with all his might, "I am innocent! I have committed no crime! I want to see the emperor! I want to see His Majesty!"

However, Zhu Yunwen's cries received no response, only bursts of laughter and ridicule coming from outside the prison.

"Once you enter this prison, you will basically have no chance to see the emperor. Save your energy, eat when you are hungry, drink when you are thirsty, don't take things to heart, eat well so you can go on your way." The jailer came to Zhu Yunwen and said.

Zhu Yunwen shouted indignantly, "I am the flesh and blood of Emperor Xiaokang! Brothers of His Majesty, you can't do this to me! Let me out quickly, I want to see His Majesty!"

The jailer shook his head helplessly and responded in a cold tone, "Don't even mention that you are the son of Emperor Xiaokang. Even if you are the son of Emperor Hongwu, once you enter this deep prison, it will be a waste of effort."

The jailer shrugged, looking nonchalant.

I have been here for many years and have seen countless princes and nobles being imprisoned here. At the beginning, they also shouted and screamed like Zhu Yunwen, but finally they all calmed down.

Zhu Yunwen unwillingly grabbed the corner of the jailer's clothes and said anxiously, "Please help me pass a message to His Majesty and tell him that I was wronged. I want to see him and tell him my grievances in person."

After saying this, Zhu Yunwen hurriedly took out a neatly folded silver note from the jade belt around his waist.
