These Jinyiwei who followed him were not only there to protect him, but also to keep an eye on him.

After confirming that these Jinyiwei were insiders, Wei Wu still had a question in his mind that he couldn't figure out.

The best route for the navy was to go from the capital along the Yangtze River down to the estuary, and that was how he came.

But he has been in Tongzhou during this period, and even when he went out to sea for a trip, he was only more than 20 kilometers away from the estuary.

The navy that was sent to fight against the Japanese pirates this time had a total of thirty treasure ships, so it was impossible for them to go to sea silently.

But this Jinyiwei said that the navy was already at sea, so how did they get out to sea?

With this doubt, Wei Wu looked at the Jinyiwei and continued to ask:

"You said the navy is already at sea, but I'm right here at the Tongzhou estuary. It's impossible that I haven't received any news at all."

Upon hearing Wei Wu's question, the Jinyiwei immediately gave an answer.

"In reply to the Marquis, His Majesty knew you were in Tongzhou, so he didn't send the navy through the most convenient Yangtze River waterway."

"Instead, he ordered the navy to depart from the capital and sail to Zhenjiang, then from Zhenjiang, he would sail southward along the Jiangnan section of the Grand Canal."

"It passed through Changzhou, Wuxi, Suzhou and Jiaxing, and finally arrived in Hangzhou, and then left from the mouth of the Qiantang River."

After hearing what Jin Yiwei said, Wei Wu had so many bad words in his mind that he almost couldn't help but blurt them out.

If it wasn't in front of the Jinyiwei, these words might have really come out of his throat.

But even so, Wei Wu still said this with gritted teeth.

"Good! It's really good! Your son-in-law and you are close friends, but you are playing tricks on him. You are really on guard against me!"

"In order to prevent me from joining the Japanese pirates, he even took a long detour to avoid me. What a good father-in-law!!"

After saying that, Wei Wu turned around and looked at the Jinyiwei.

"You actually know this kind of thing so clearly, and you answer everything I ask. Did His Majesty tell you about it a long time ago?"

"Yes, my Lord. His Majesty has instructed that after the navy sets out, if you learn of any news, I will not conceal anything from you, no matter what you ask."

Got it!

Just now, Wei Wu was just guessing that Zhu Yuanzhang did this to protect him and prevent him from taking risks with the Japanese pirates.

Now it can be confirmed that Zhu Yuanzhang was using the Jinyiwei to tell me that he just didn't want me to go to the Japanese pirates.

"Mr. Zhu is so calculating! Really so calculating! I have to say that the old ones are the wisest. They have a plan and two plans."

"No wonder he told me to take Yuxuan out to relax. It wasn't enough to just send me away, he even tied me up with my wife!"

Wei Wu's current tone and the words he said could be said to be extremely disrespectful to the emperor.

If it were someone else, the Jinyiwei would have drawn their knives long ago, but since this man was Wei Wu, the Jinyiwei could only pretend that they heard nothing.

They didn't even look at Wei Wu, and all kept their heads down, because Mao Xiang had given them instructions long before they came to Tongzhou.

No matter what Wei Wu said, as long as he didn't announce his rebellion in public, these people could just pretend to be deaf.

But one thing is that after Wei Wu knew the news, he must not let him go out to sea again.

However, at this moment, the Jinyiwei suddenly heard Wei Wu's cold laughter.

"Humph! You think you can stop me like this? Do you really think I can't go on the Wokou tour without the treasure ship?"

Hearing Wei Wu's words, the Jinyiwei felt a pang in their hearts and thought to themselves that something was wrong. The thing they least wanted to see had happened.

They were not afraid of anything in this operation. What they were most worried about was that Wei Wu was determined to go to the Japanese pirates.

If it were someone else, they would just pull out a knife and subdue the person by force.

But the one in front of him is not the same. This is the emperor’s treasure, and he cannot be touched at all.
