As Qiu Fu's voice fell.
The three people in the private room opened their eyes wide at the same time and froze in silence. It was eerily quiet inside. The sounds of newspaper reading and the noisy chatter of the restaurant patrons drifting in from the window... seemed to be coming from a distant other world.
Even Monk Daoyan fell into a state of complete trance.
Zhu Yuanzhang sneaked out to listen to the news without anyone noticing... The amount of information contained in this is too much! Who else could he hide from? He could only be on guard against them!
The four people looked at each other.
It wasn't until the snow on Qiu Fu began to melt that Zhu Di seemed to come to his senses. He swallowed and said in a choked voice, "It's... it's Father! I said it was Father! What did Father mean?"
Although his vague guess turned out to be correct, he was obviously not happy at all, and even his lips turned a little pale.
Xu Miaoyun also frowned, looking at Qiu Fu in disbelief and asking, "Are you sure you didn't mistake the person or follow the wrong one?"
Qiu Fu's eyes flashed.
Du Ran said: "I still have this confidence."
Monk Daoyan sighed absentmindedly, "He personally saw someone outside the private residence sneaking into the house with His Majesty's men. Who could have done such a thing? It had to be His Majesty, without a doubt."
At this moment, he had also digested this thunderbolt-like news and had finally regained some of his previous composure. However, it was impossible for him to remain as calm as before...
He narrowed his eyes slightly, tapped the table lightly with his knuckles, and said solemnly, "Your Majesty is our biggest trump card. Now that trump card has undergone a change we never expected, we must reconsider it."
The people here were not ordinary people, so they immediately calmed down, exchanged glances with each other, and nodded.
Zhu Di said, "Father...is on guard against us, but he clearly has a trump card in his hand that will keep us from moving. And he just came out to read the newspaper and have some tea at the restaurant. So what if we find out? So...what is Father...on guard against us?"
Xu Miaoyun also nodded and said, "That's right! If Father had just come out to stroll around and listen to the newspaper, it would be fine. But this behavior is like 'stealing the bell while covering one's ears'. There must be something hidden here!"
Although she tends to be more conservative.
But he knew very well that this matter depended on Zhu Di's attitude and ideas. As long as Zhu Di still had the intention, all she could do was to assist him as best she could.
Monk Daoyan took a sip of tea and said, "The most unusual thing is... shouldn't the man in the private residence be grieving right now? It hasn't been long since his two sons died, right? He was wailing in the house earlier, and now he's in the mood to come out and listen to the news so soon?"
Only then did Qiu Fu take off his cloak and shake off the snow.
"Furthermore, Your Majesty has not taken any action so far. Putting aside the fact that the King of Qin and the King of Jin were executed immediately, someone has the audacity to steal the country, and the Great Emperor Hongwu has ignored such a serious matter and come to hear the report?"
He may not think about things as comprehensively and meticulously as Zhu Di, Monk Daoyan and others, but now that the matter has been laid out on the table, even he has sensed something amiss - even if he had never met Zhu Yuanzhang before, who in the world had not heard of the temper of Emperor Hongwu?
After they finished speaking, they fell silent again.
Because of these problems, none of them could figure it out - all the wrong, strange and weird things were intertwined together, which seemed to be impossible to happen, but it was an undeniable fact!
After a long silence, Monk Daoyan said, "If you want to find out the reason behind this... Your Majesty, it can only be you."
