Daming: Grandpa Emperor, please get up and sit on my throne!

Dai Sigong's face changed and he immediately made a nervous gesture to keep quiet.

He was just taking advantage of the major changes in the palace right now, as manpower was needed both inside and outside the palace to maintain stability and prevent people with ulterior motives from causing trouble.

Only then did he find an opportunity with great difficulty to meet Jiang Li in secret.

Fortunately, the guard at the side hall door only thought that Jiang Li was struggling just like before, having woken up suddenly and was too excited.

He knocked on the door several times and said in a cold voice, "Commander Jiang, you are a smart man. You should know that struggling is useless."

Jiang Li is indeed a smart man.

They immediately quieted down, staring intently at Dai Sigong's old face, which looked extremely kind at the moment.

But he didn't understand that he and Dai Sigong were both knocked down by that old bastard.

As a commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, I have no choice.

Instead, this old man was so agile, and he ran away?

Dai Sigong breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he tremblingly took out the small note he had prepared earlier from his sleeve and showed it to Jiang Li through the crack in the window.

[Don't be alarmed, Your Majesty.]

Jiang Li felt a little relieved, but then he felt something was wrong. His Majesty was fine, so even if he wanted to hold him accountable for dereliction of duty, he should have been thrown into prison, right?

Without waiting for him to think about it.

The next sentence was so shocking that he felt like he was struck by a bolt from the blue.

[The fake death was discovered by the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace. He knocked you and me unconscious, planned a coup, and successfully ascended the throne.]

He knows about the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace.

That timid, dull, stupid, cowardly and weak grandson of the Third Emperor couldn't even draw the smallest bow.

He? He was the commander of the Imperial Guards?

That old bastard from yesterday wasn't someone else, but him!? How is this possible?

Of course, this is not the craziest thing.

Planning a coup?

Successfully ascended the throne?????

What the hell is going on here? They're planning a coup while His Majesty is still alive. Are they tired of living? And they've even succeeded in ascending the throne? Are they trying to stomp on His Majesty's face?

Jiang Li stared at the note in Dai Sigong's hand, suspecting that the old man was teasing him.

[I know you are in a hurry, but don't be anxious yet. 】

[The Third Prince was unaware that His Majesty was still alive, and his ascension to the throne was tacitly approved by His Majesty. The entire court, both civil and military officials, believed His Majesty to have passed away.]

[His Majesty wants you to feign ignorance and serve the Third Prince.]

[Details will be given later.]

Dai Sigong knew that he was in danger of being discovered at any time, so he didn't dare to say much. He just briefly told Jiang Li the general situation and let Jiang Li know what Zhu Yuanzhang meant.

After the incident, the kind and familiar old face disappeared.

Jiang Li was left alone with the CPU down and in a mess.

now.

Jiang Li wanted to pick up that damn old man Dai Sigong and beat him up - why don't you explain yourself clearly? He is not young anymore, but he runs faster than anyone else.

However, Jiang Li and Dai Sigong both served Zhu Yuanzhang.

He also knew the old man's character. As a doctor, he was the most cautious in his words and would never speak carelessly about things that he was unsure of.

Plus.

In this matter, he and Dai Sigong can be considered to be brothers in distress.

So Jiang Li prepared himself mentally for a while.

I still listened to Dai Sigong's words.

"Your Majesty is still alive..."

"Yet he faked his own death to the entire court, tacitly approving the Third Prince's ascension to the throne!"

"This kind of treatment could only have been bestowed upon the late Crown Prince! How on earth did the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace, who had never been in the limelight, become on par with the Crown Prince overnight?!"

"Something must have happened that I absolutely couldn't have anticipated. This Third Prince is definitely not someone to be trifled with!"

Jiang Li thought about it carefully, narrowed his eyes slightly, and couldn't help but take a breath.

……

The front hall of the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yunhuan carefully took the box down from the antique display cabinet, as if protecting a baby, took out the sweet potato vines and three sweet potatoes inside, and placed them in the simple nutrient solution made with rice vinegar in front of him.
