"Your Majesty, do you want to salvage this?" Lu Wei could see that Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was not right, and after three months of living together day and night, he also knew how much the Hongwu Emperor valued blood ties.

True.

In his heart, he also felt that Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang deserved to die.

Over the past three months.

He walked from Yingtian Prefecture to Beiping City, and witnessed the hardships of the people and the difficulties they faced in their lives along the way. Even though he had never met the young and heroic emperor of Yingtian Prefecture, he admired, respected, and respected him in his heart.

That Emperor of Yingtian Prefecture was incredibly clever, able to ensure that benefits would reach the truly impoverished people, giving them clothes to wear and sparing them from the suffering of war... He was even willing to bear the infamy and damage his own foundation for this...

And the King of Qin and the King of Jin?

All they care about is power and the throne. Things that are good for the people of the world instead encourage them to rebel, not to mention that they have a history of many bad deeds. They do not take the lives of the people seriously.

People like this will just die if they want to.

But Lu Wei also knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was his master, and his humble thoughts were not important, so he could only follow his master's ideas.

But he still hoped that His Majesty would not care about this matter.

After all, if Your Majesty intends to intervene in this matter, it would be to save two villains and cause trouble for a wise monarch.

Hearing Lu Wei's words.

Zhu Yuanzhang remained silent, leaning back in his chair. After a long while, he regained consciousness and sighed with a look of melancholy on his face: "Alas... I can't do it... and... it's too late..."

There was a hint of grayness in his eyes, which were already a little cloudy due to old age.

It was as if all the energy in my body had been drained away.

"We've already handed over all of Yingtian Prefecture to that little wolf cub. Who else knows we're still alive? Jiang Lin? Dai Sigong? Ren Hengtai? Ask them to rescue the second and third brothers, can they? None of them can!"

"I want to save the second and third brothers..."

"Unless I jump out now and tell everyone I'm still alive, and then the Ming Dynasty will be in chaos, everyone will take sides, and I and my own grandson will have a fierce battle... I don't know who will win or lose in the end."

"In this case, even if we win, the vitality that the Central Plains has finally recovered will be exhausted. This is gambling with the life of the Ming Dynasty."

"It would be fine if he was a tyrant."

"But the facts prove that he is the most suitable person to be the emperor!"

"Besides, even if we really did that, would we have enough time? Absolutely no time at all. The little wolf has calculated everything clearly. Before anyone in the world even heard the slightest whisper of rebellion, he'd already arrested the people and sent them to Yingtian Prefecture."

"That doesn't give anyone time to react!"

It was precisely because Zhu Yuanzhang was very clear about these objective conditions that he seemed to have lost his soul.

Do you want to save Zhu Chong and Zhu Gang? Of course you do! At least save their lives!

But the cost is too high.

Moreover, he knew that with the means and abilities of his great grandson, plus the nobles of Huaixi... it would be difficult!

But even so.

Hesitant? Definitely hesitant?

People will eventually be trapped throughout their lives by the things they could not obtain in their youth. What's more, these are things that they could not obtain in their youth, middle age, and even in their sixties and seventies, they are still losing?

At this moment, he was not the Hongwu Emperor, he was a farmer, a father who was like a trapped beast, and the one who was about to die was his son.

How could I not hesitate?

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Lu Wei lowered his eyes with a look of sadness on his face, but in his heart he was secretly relieved for the emperor who was far away in Yingtian Prefecture, and even felt a little secretly happy.

He silently opened another teacup on the tea table next to him.
