After saying that, he took out the information from his wide sleeves.
After a quick glance.
A faint smile played on his lips as he said, "Your Highness can rest assured. Yingtian Prefecture is also in chaos. After all, in this world, ordinary people always account for 99% of the population. Even if Zhu Yunhuan's actions temporarily quell the many criticisms and disputes of the court officials, they cannot silence the common people. Even if he kills them, can he really kill 99% of the people?"
"This is the prince's opportunity!"
"For the people of Yingtian Prefecture, if someone wanted to overthrow a king who wanted to kill them, how could they not welcome him?"
"If it can be used properly, this is a powerful weapon!"
Upon hearing this news, Zhu Di's frown finally relaxed a lot and he nodded, saying, "It is just as Master Daoyan predicted."
And there seems to be more exciting news.
Monk Daoyan continued, "Not only among the 99% of the people in Yingtian Prefecture, but even among the small number of people who remain, there are some who have complaints."
"Master Daoyan, please speak quickly," Zhu Di said, his face brightening. He needed some good news to dispel the gloom.
Monk Daoyan put away the intelligence in his hand, raised his head and continued, "I'm afraid that person's existence will be exposed soon."
"For court officials and knowledgeable scholars among the people, it's unbelievable that the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace, who had been submissive for over a decade, ascended to the throne through sheer luck, but then continued to act recklessly and unruly after taking the throne. And then, suddenly, he acted like this. How could there not be some manipulation behind the scenes?"
"Can I still get lucky?"
"Right now, many people in the capital are secretly speculating and discussing this matter. Some have also begun to investigate this person, both openly and covertly."
"As the saying goes, there is always a price to pay for every gain."
"That man's move did indeed achieve the best effect in winning the hearts of the people for the new emperor, but it also put himself in the spotlight." Monk Daoyan said.
Zhu Di nodded, looked at Monk Daoyan with a bright look, and asked, "Has anyone found out the result?"
Monk Daoyan shook his head:
"Some people suspect it's Liu Sanwu, Zhan Hui, and Fu Youwen. After all, these three people, who originally didn't have a very good relationship, have been getting together frequently over the past period of time. They also didn't like to say much during the morning court sessions."
"But this guess is unreliable."
"With their abilities, they wouldn't have let the person in the private residence capsize. And if it was the work of the three of them, His Majesty wouldn't have been unaware of it before."
Zhu Di sighed with some regret: "That's really a pity. If this person could come out in the open, it would be easier for you and me to deal with him."
Monk Daoyan took a sip of tea without caring.
He said: "Whether this person surfaces or not, as long as everyone is aware of this person's existence, it will be beneficial to us."
"First, the curiosity of others will surely lead to the person's appearance. It's only a matter of time."
"Furthermore, for some people, they claim to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, or even just loyal to the one in the private residence. As long as they know that there is such a person, no matter what their identity is, as long as they are stealing the Zhu family's territory, this person will be unacceptable to the world."
"Especially the Huaixi nobles, they can't tolerate this person the most! But we still don't know what methods that person used to stabilize the Huaixi nobles, and we don't know if the Huaixi nobles knew anything before."
"But if the Huaixi nobles didn't know about this before, then this person's appearance might even cause chaos within Yingtian Prefecture. This might be an additional benefit."
Hearing what Monk Daoyan said.
Zhu Di pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Indeed! Previously, only we had vaguely guessed at this person's existence. Now, in order to gain greater public support, he has quietly put himself out in the open, which means he will be a great help to us!"
Monk Daoyan reminded: "Besides, we still have the biggest trump card!"
"Father!" Zhu Di certainly knew what Monk Daoyan was referring to.
But then he said hesitantly and uncertainly, "It's just that there's something amiss with this card, Father. The man behind Zhu Yunhuan is trying to usurp the throne of the Ming Dynasty. I've already told Father, but these past few days, Father hasn't made many moves besides being indifferent to the singing and dancing girls."
"That's really not like his character."
Speaking of this.
Zhu Di's expression became much more serious.
After saying this, he stretched his neck and glanced outside the hall, as if waiting for something. "I heard earlier that the emperor heard that the sixth issue of the newspaper had arrived, so he went to join in the fun at that newly opened teahouse in Peking."
"I'm afraid he's already known about this by now. I wonder how Father would react? Why hasn't anyone come yet..."
Speak of Cao Cao and he appears before Zhu Di even finishes his words.
A familiar figure appeared in front of the two of them: "Qiu Fu?" Zhu Di's eyes lit up immediately, with anticipation in his eyes.
Not because of anything else.
Instead, he saw Qiu Fu walking towards him with big strides, a smile on his face. What was the reason for this smile... He also had some thoughts in his mind.
"Your Highness." Qiu Fu greeted him briefly.
"What's the situation with my father?" Zhu Di asked impatiently.
Qiu Fu chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, His Majesty left the teahouse in a state of dismay after hearing just this bit of news."
"Then... I will be relieved." Zhu Di took a deep breath and said.
