Start by saving Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang honors me as the Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 18 Hostage Threat! Exchange of the Six Yanyun States

Nanjing Imperial City

Royal Palace

Ever since Lin An followed Zhu Di to the war, Empress Ma has not had a good meal. She is always worried about Lin An and is almost unable to sleep or eat!

"Sister! What if you only eat this little and your body gets hungry again?"

Zhu Yuanzhang held the bowl and stood beside Queen Ma and said softly!

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang did not have any of the domineering and majestic aura of the emperor. In front of Empress Ma, he was like a husband coaxing his little wife, and his helplessness was displayed to the fullest!

Empress Ma turned her head away and snorted, "If you're starving, then so be it. Doctor Xiaolin is a skilled doctor anyway!"

"But Doctor Xiaolin is now following the fourth brother to fight and can't come back for a while..." Zhu Yuanzhang advised.

Empress Ma glared at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "So, why didn't you discuss this with me? Why would you let a doctor who can't even tie a chicken go with you? He can't treat those wounded soldiers in the wild!"

Queen Ma was still angry about this!

Speaking of which, her feelings towards Lin An were somewhat complicated. Perhaps the factor of him being her savior was involved, but not entirely. She seemed to see the shadow of another person in Lin An.

Zhu Hong!

Her godson!

If Zhu Hong were alive, he might be as old as Lin An!

"Oh, isn't this Xu Da trying to improve Doctor Xiao Lin's qualifications? I heard that Doctor Xiao Lin likes the girl from Xu Da's family, Xu Miao Jin!"

Zhu Yuanzhang explained.

Queen Ma's eyes suddenly lit up, "Really? Then when he comes back, you can grant the marriage! And then I'll be the witness! Hahahahahaha..."

At the end, Queen Ma laughed out loud!

Seeing that Empress Ma was in such a good mood, Zhu Yuanzhang took the opportunity to pass the bowl over, and said with a flattering smile on his face:

"Sister, eat one more bowl! Otherwise, you'll fall ill when Doctor Kobayashi returns triumphantly!"

The joy of regaining what was lost also made Zhu Yuanzhang more cautious when facing Empress Ma!

After all, he didn't want to experience the pain of losing his loved one again.

Empress Ma thought for a moment before bringing the bowl over and saying, "Alright! I'll have another small bowl!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was full of smiles!

Da da da……

Zhu Biao walked over, and even though he forced a smile, he couldn't hide the sinister look in his eyes.

"Father!"

"Mother!"

Zhu Biao bowed and said to Zhu Yuanzhang in a relaxed tone:

"Father, a battle report has arrived from the front! It's extremely urgent!"

Zhu Biao emphasized the last four words!

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao and immediately realized that his son must have some hidden agenda, and it was inconvenient to say it in front of Empress Ma, so he said, "Okay! Go to Fengtian Hall and call Xu Da and Tang to discuss it with them!"

"Mother, I'm leaving now!"

After Zhu Biao finished speaking, he hurried out. Empress Ma did not notice anything unusual, she just waved her hand and then ate her meal slowly, while thinking about how to organize the wedding.

As soon as he left the harem, Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened. "What happened?"

At this moment, Zhu Biao was almost about to cry. He took out a letter, but his hands were shaking uncontrollably!

There were a few big words written on the cover of the letter.

Written personally by Zhu Yuanzhang!

Respectfully submitted by Wang Baobao!

In an instant, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly arose in his heart!

He quickly opened the letter!

He was so upset that he couldn't see the densely packed words on the letter paper. His breathing became a little rapid. Finally, he said directly to Zhu Biao, "What did Wang Baobao say in the letter?"

Zhu Biao's expression looked so ugly for the first time!

"The Fourth Brother and the Marquis of Taiping have fallen into Wang Baobao's hands!"

"Wang Baobao wants us to exchange the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun for their lives!"

"Otherwise, just wait for the corpse to be collected..."

At the end of his speech, Zhu Biao's voice was trembling.

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was extremely gloomy. He chuckled coldly and said grimly:

"This son of a bitch!"

"You really think you're a dish!"

"Issue the decree! We will personally lead the army and destroy the Northern Yuan Dynasty in one fell swoop!"

"Wang Baobao wants to use the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun as a natural barrier to keep that damn Yuan Dynasty alive. Let's just wipe out his lair!"

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang was full of domineering aura! Every gesture he made was filled with an aura that looked down upon the world!

The aura of an emperor of all ages! The hearts of the palace maids and eunuchs present were frozen, and the overwhelming pressure made them want to kneel on the ground and worship!

"Father, if Wang Baobao goes all out, then the Fourth Brother and the Marquis of Taiping will..."

Zhu Biao was still calm and spoke!

In an instant, Zhu Yuanzhang regained consciousness from his high spirits. His breathing became rapid again, and he said to Zhu Biao with a cold face, "Have Duke Xin and Duke Wei come to the palace immediately!"

"My son, let's do it now!"

Zhu Biao bowed!

After Zhu Biao left, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs around him, and his voice was a little cold.

"If anyone spreads rumors about what happened just now and it reaches the Queen's ears, don't blame us for being ruthless!"

Although it was a sunny summer day, the palace maids and eunuchs shivered violently, as if they had fallen into an icy cave and felt like thorns were on their backs!

Their knees went weak and they all fell to their knees, almost crawling on the ground. Perhaps they were so scared that their bodies began to tremble!

Zhu Yuanzhang never jokes!

If I say I will kill, I really will kill!

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and strode towards the Fengtian Hall!

The palace maids and eunuchs finally breathed a sigh of relief, but were then shocked to find that their backs were soaked with cold sweat.

……

Duke of Wei's Mansion

Ever since he heard that Xu Miaojin liked Lin An, and that Lin An also had some interest in Xu Miaojin, Xu Da's life has been so happy! Drinking a little wine and eating a delicious roast goose, he said he was like a living god!

Xu Da thought that he could arrange their marriage after Lin An came back from military service. With such a trump card, he was even happier.

But as far as he knew, he was not the only one eyeing Lin An!

If Tang He's daughter had not already married into the royal family, the two of them would probably be the most intense competition.

Fortunately, both of his daughters are very capable! One married His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan, and the other hooked up with the Marquis of Taiping, leading him to victory without any effort! He doesn't have to worry about anything at all!

"Didn't I tell you not to eat roast goose? Xu Da! Are you tired of living?"

Xu Miaoyun discovered that Xu Da was eating secretly and smelled the faint aroma of roast goose in the air. She immediately became furious and shouted at the top of her lungs without caring about her image at all!

As a result of the many battles he fought in his youth, Xu Da suffered from many illnesses. In his old age, he had a serious carbuncle on his back. Roast goose is an irritant, and the imperial physicians had warned him more than once not to eat irritants. But Xu Da always ate it secretly!

"I'm just so happy! I just like this one. Okay, okay, this is the last time I'll eat it... Oh! Miao Jin..."

Xu Da was about to hide the remaining roast goose, but the quick-eyed and quick-handed Xu Miaoyun snatched it away and had the servants take it away!

Xu Da sighed helplessly as he watched the roast goose fly away. Then, for some reason, his eyes lit up and he said, "Hey, do you think Divine Doctor Lin can cure my carbuncle? Then I can enjoy my roast goose!"

Just as Xu Miaoyun was about to speak, she saw Crown Prince Zhu Biao hurried over! His face was not very good!

"Greetings, Prince!" Xu Miaoyun bowed hurriedly!

Zhu Biao hummed, then said to Xu Da with a heavy face, "Something happened! Lao Si and his men fell into a trap and fell into Wang Baobao's hands!"
