Zhu Yunhuan finished speaking.

Ma Sanbao took a deep breath, a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on his face, and he immediately said excitedly: "Your Highness, I understand what you mean! I will go to the Duke of Liang's Mansion right away!"

Zhu Yunhuan was determined to save himself, and he was happier than anyone else.

Not to mention that his little prince has already analyzed the situation extremely thoroughly and planned carefully, even if there is only a slight possibility of this happening, he will not hesitate!

Looking at the tall, jade-like white figure behind the desk, Ma Sanbao felt a surge of emotion in his heart, his eyes turned slightly red, and a sour feeling welled up in his nose.

What kind of life has the Third Prince been living these years?

He saw it all.

He is the second son of the current crown prince, the grandson of the military god of the Ming Dynasty, and the nephew of the Duke of Liang. He should have the highest honor!

Fortunately, this sword has been hidden for more than ten years.

It’s going to be unsheathed today!

Zhu Yunhuan walked out from behind the desk towards the door with an indifferent expression, as if the previous ten years of forbearance were just a passing cloud.

He slowly opened his mouth and warned, "By the way, if you manage to move the Duke of Liang, besides having them contact the Five Military Commandery, you must also send people to control the officials above the rank of Qian Hu of the Jinyiwei."

With Lan Yu around, Zhu Yunhuan from the Five Military Commandery had nothing to worry about.

After all, most of the wars in recent years were led by Lan Yu, and the troops of the Five Military Commandery were the main force in wartime. Sometimes Lan Yu's words were even more effective than Zhu Yuanzhang's.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to kill Lan Yu.

However, the Jinyiwei were directly under the control of Zhu Yuanzhang. As Zhu Yuanzhang's confidants, they must have known that Zhu Yuanzhang intended to make Zhu Yunwen the crown prince.

Therefore, the Jinyiwei were the ones Zhu Yunhuan needed to be most wary of and control.

When he reached the door, Zhu Yunhuan said calmly, "Tell my uncle that I'm waiting for him in the Qianqing Palace."

After saying that, he stepped out of the door and disappeared into the night.

Ma Sanbao took a deep breath to calm himself, nodded firmly, then left the side hall and disappeared into the night.

……

Duke of Liang's Mansion.

Lan Yu was about to go back to his room to sleep when he heard a servant come to report: "Master, someone from the East Palace wants to see you."

"I'm going to sleep, get out of here!" Lan Yu said impatiently.

Zhu Biao passed away a few days ago.

Originally, he would have been happy to firmly support Zhu Biao, but recently people in the court said that the old man wanted to make Zhu Yunwen the crown prince.

Of course Lan Yu was unhappy.

Now the Eastern Palace is in the hands of Lu and Zhu Yunwen.

At this time, someone from the East Palace came to ask for a meeting. Who knows what's going on?

So Lan Yu directly and angrily refused.

"But sir...that man claimed to be the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace." said the servant.

"Third Prince..." Lan Yu was slightly stunned, frowning and feeling curious, he murmured, "This is strange, let him come in."

Over the years, she had basically no contact with Zhu Yunhuan. The only impression of Zhu Yunhuan in Lan Yu's mind was that he was timid, dull, stupid, and hopeless.

But even so.

He still had to acknowledge that he was his own nephew.

Since the other party has come to him, Lan Yu is of course willing to meet him.

He sat back on the armchair in the lobby, tapping the armrest lightly with two fingers of his right hand. A thoughtful look crossed his brows as he murmured, "This child is pitiful. My eldest niece passed away just a few days after she was born. She's had a hard time under the Lu family's rule these years. Now that even the crown prince has passed away, I'm afraid her situation will be even more difficult."

Lan Yu is not a stupid person.

After sitting down and thinking about it for a while, he "guessed" the purpose of Zhu Yunhuan looking for him.

Then he sighed softly: "Alas... Although this child's talent is not good, he is still the blood of my eldest sister and brother-in-law. Since he has come to me for help, I have to help him no matter what."

Not long after.

Ma Sanbao was brought in by the servants: "Your servant Ma Sanbao, pays homage to the Duke of Liang."

Over the years, Zhu Yunhuan had never dared to speak, and it was rare for him to take the initiative to ask this young eunuch to serve him personally.

So Lan Yu had some impression of Ma Sanbao.

So he put away his bad temper.

He looked at Ma Sanbao and asked, "Is Yunxun in trouble?"

Ma Sanbao glanced around.

Then he looked up at Lan Yu and said, "Could you please ask the Duke of Liang to dismiss his attendants?"

Lan Yu's brows twitched.

For some reason, I felt my chest suddenly tighten.

However, he still raised his hand and waved, signaling everyone in the hall to leave.

"Go ahead." Lan Yu said.

Ma Sanbao pursed his lips and said nervously, "Your Majesty, the Duke of Liang, His Majesty has passed away."

"What!?" Lan Yu took a breath of cold air and his pupils shrank suddenly.

"His Majesty has passed away. Commander Jiang said this to the Second Prince in person when he came to the East Palace. I heard it with my own ears. There is no mistake." Ma Sanbao confirmed again.

Lan Yu picked up the teacup and drank some water to calm himself down.

The lobby fell into silence.

After a while.

Lan Yu finally came to his senses and murmured thoughtfully, "So late at night, and only Jiang Li was allowed to inform Zhu Yunwen? Is this to give him time to prepare? It seems that the old man really has long intended to pass the throne to that kid Zhu Yunwen..."

Although the court had speculated about this a long time ago and was mentally prepared, when Lan Yu really knew that the little bastard was going to inherit the throne, he still felt like he had eaten a fly.

He looked up.

Look at the young eunuch in front of him.

He finally "understood" the reason why Zhu Yunhuan suddenly came to see him.

"After the Crown Prince passed away, the Eastern Palace became the domain of the Lu family and Zhu Yunwen. Now even the old man has passed away, and they want Zhu Yunwen to succeed him. From now on, the Forbidden City will become the domain of the mother and son. No wonder the child is afraid."

"Tell Yunxun not to be afraid. We won't let him suffer any injustice!"

Lan Yu slapped his thigh and said with a solemn oath.

But Ma Sanbao shook his head and said, "Duke Liang, you misunderstood. Our prince asked me to come here to ask you, Duke Liang, whether you want to live or not."

"Do we want to live?"

Lan Yu was bewildered.

What the hell is this bullshit?

Lan Yu had made great military achievements and outstanding merits. His Majesty personally appointed him as the General of Conquering the Enemy. The Huaixi Military Generals Group was headed by him. Could it be that he was tired of living?

Without waiting for Lan Yu to say anything else.

Ma Sanbao nodded and said, "Duke Liang, you might want to think about this. You are the uncle of the former Crown Princess. Your achievements may earn you rewards, but sometimes you may also be a threat to the emperor. If the Second Prince inherits the throne, will the current Crown Princess and the Second Prince be able to tolerate you?"

"The Second Prince can't touch you now, but what if he grows stronger in the future?"

"Of course, with Duke Liang's influence, he might be tempted to give it a try himself, but there are still many princes hanging around outside, Duke Xin is still retired at home, and there are other veterans..."

Ma Sanbao looked up at Lan Yu's slightly frightened face and knew that he didn't need to continue talking.

Lan Yu pursed her lips and looked at Ma Sanbao fiercely, with murderous intent flashing in her eyes. She asked, "Who taught you these things?"

Ma Sanbao smiled slightly and said, "This servant belongs to the Third Prince."

Lan Yu couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Zhu Yunhuan?

My timid nephew???
