Hearing this, Zhang Hai grinned and became much more sober.

"Master, why do you say that? It's our duty to do things for you. Just tell me what you need me to do."

"Quickly return to the capital to find Mao Xiang and have him take you to see His Majesty. Tell His Majesty that I need the seal of the pseudo-Han Emperor, the Great Righteous Emperor!"

Fake Han! Seal of the Great Righteous Emperor!

Wei Wu had just finished speaking when Shen Lin and Zhang Hai both showed a look of shock.

Others didn’t know what Wei Wu was talking about, but they were both former members of the Imperial Guard, and the predecessor of the Imperial Guard was the Yiluansi, the imperial guard.

I still have some understanding of these things.

The so-called pseudo-Han is the dynasty established by Chen Youliang, the biggest opponent of His Majesty when he established the Ming Dynasty.

When Chen Youliang founded the dynasty and proclaimed himself emperor, the country was named Han, and his own reign title was Dayi.

However, not long after the establishment of this dynasty, Chen Youliang was shot dead by an arrow in the Battle of Poyang Lake.

Later, Chen Youliang's second son Chen Li inherited the pseudo-emperor throne and changed the reign title to "De Shou". In February of the following year, Zhu Yuanzhang personally led his troops to fight.

When the enemy was at the gates of the city, Chen Li offered basically no resistance and surrendered by going out of the city. He was finally granted the title of Marquis of Guide.

It's just that this marquis was a bit miserable. In the fifth year of Hongwu, he was sent to Goryeo by Zhu Yuanzhang to spend the rest of his life.

But this is not the point. The point is that Wei Wu actually wanted the seal used by Chen Youliang when he came to power.

This is what frightened Shen Lin and Zhang Hai.

Even though the dynasty established by Chen Youliang was a pseudo-empire, it was still a country after all.

As a count of the Ming Dynasty, Wei Wu actually asked the emperor for the seal of the fake emperor. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a heinous act of treason.

Seeing the shocked expressions on their faces, Wei Wu roughly guessed what they were thinking.

"Okay, what are you two thinking? I'm using this to fool those White Lotus lunatics."

"Forget it. I'm too lazy to explain it to you. Zhang Hai, just tell His Majesty this when you get back. Don't overthink anything else."

"I'll give the order to sail in a moment. Once you get the things, you must rush to Rencheng and reunite with us as soon as possible. Do you understand?"

After hearing Wei Wu's voice, the two finally came to their senses.

Then Zhang Hai bowed and said:

"Master, don't worry. I will bring the things to Rencheng and hand them over to you as quickly as possible."

"Ah."

Wei Wu nodded in satisfaction, and then Zhang Hai turned around and got off the boat without saying anything else.

After Zhang Hai left, Wei Wu waved his hand.

"Let the boatman start the boat, and we will set off for Rencheng."

The distance from Yangzhou to Rencheng by water is about 480 to 500 kilometers.

The sailing speed of the Fu ship is twenty to twenty-five kilometers per hour, but this is based on favorable winds and favorable currents.

In fact, when Fujian ships sail on the water, they can basically only rely on sails as power.

In the case of headwind and upstream, it may be impossible to reach even 15 kilometers per hour, and some sections of the water still require the help of trackers.

Although the sailing time was six hours a day, it took Wei Wu three days to finally reach Rencheng.

And we didn't arrive until dark, but that was pretty good. If we had gone by land, it might have taken us half a month to get there.

After the ship stopped at the dock, Wei Wu ordered the Wuchang Squad and the Jinyiwei on board not to get off the ship.

Late at midnight, four figures came down from the Fu ship and then disappeared into the darkness.

The next morning, Wei Wu stretched himself and got up from the couch.

After washing up at the side of the ship, he did not get off the ship, but sat on the third deck and made a pot of fragrant tea.

Although we have arrived in Rencheng, we have not yet set up our stall and need some time to make preliminary arrangements.

The most important thing is that Shen Lin and Master Zheng had just come out last night, and Zhang Hai had not yet arrived in Rencheng.

At least we have to wait for Master Zheng to contact the White Lotus branch here, and for Zhang Hai to bring the things.
