Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Wei Wu had no idea how the bowl of five-flavor soup went down his throat.

He only felt a strong sense of oppression filling the entire Kunning Palace. When he came to his senses, the food had been eaten.

Then, under the gaze of Empress Ma, he greeted her cautiously and waited for Empress Ma to nod before leaving Kunning Palace.

As soon as he walked out of the door, he started running without saying a word and ran all the way to the gate of Fengxian Hall.

That inexplicable and powerful feeling of oppression finally subsided.

After entering the Fengxian Hall, he was led by the eunuch to the back hall. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao revising memorials.

"Uncle Zhu, big brother, I'm back."

Hearing Wei Wu's voice, the two of them immediately put down their pens and looked up at him.

However, Zhu Biao did not speak. Instead, Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him angrily before speaking:

"After being away for a few months, you finally decided to come back? Have you paid your respects to your aunt?"

Upon hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Wei Wu immediately became unhappy and started to argue on the spot:

"Uncle Zhu, you have to speak with all your heart! I didn't leave the capital for fun this time. I went to do something for you!"

"Look at my efficiency and results. I really helped you vent your anger, but how come I didn't even get a word of praise when I came back?"

"Ah, the world is so fickle and people's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be!"

Having said that, Wei Wu pretended to be heartbroken, covered his chest with his hands, and then raised his hand to point at a eunuch in the palace.

"Hey, someone, go get me a hand warmer! My heart is freezing! I need to warm myself up with it!"

The eunuch pointed at by Wei Wu looked at him in confusion, then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, not knowing whether he should get the hand warmer.

Looking at Wei Wu's mischievous appearance, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, signaling all the servants in the palace to leave, and then looked at Wei Wu again.

"Okay, you little brat, stop talking nonsense here. I'm asking you a question! Have you paid your respects to your aunt?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Wei Wu grinned.

"I'm going, of course I'm going! I just had five-flavor soup at my aunt's place, and she even asked me to tell her that she missed you!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed happily on the spot.

"You are already an old married couple, why is my sister still saying these things in front of the child? Okay, let's go to Kunning Palace to find her later."

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's arrogant grin, Wei Wu smiled in his heart and asked innocently.

"Um, Uncle Zhu, did you not tell Auntie why I left the capital this time?"

After Wei Wu finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes on the spot and looked at Wei Wu as if he were a fool.

"You're talking nonsense! Can we tell her about this? We can only tell her that you left the capital this time to travel around."

"That way she'll be at ease. Otherwise, if she really tells the truth, your Aunt Ma will definitely expose us... Wait!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stopped talking midway and turned abruptly to look at Wei Wu.

"You little bastard, didn't you tell your aunt everything?"

Wei Wu blinked his big eyes at Zhu Yuanzhang's frightened face and said innocently:

"I don't know why you didn't tell me! When we left Beijing, you repeatedly warned me not to let Aunt know."

"But as soon as I went to Kunning Palace, my aunt pulled me aside and scolded me for a long time, saying that it was too dangerous outside and I shouldn't leave the capital."

"You didn't tell me in advance, so I thought you hadn't kept it a secret, so I told it all."

After hearing what Wei Wu said, Zhu Yuanzhang widened his eyes and cursed out a curse word on the spot, imitating Wei Wu's way of speaking.

"Fuck you! You're trying to kill me, you little brat!"

In fact, it was not just Zhu Yuanzhang, even Zhu Biao next to him was covering his forehead with a helpless look on his face.
