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

Ma Sanbao's expression suddenly became serious. He bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the Duke of Liang has sent someone to report that everything is ready."

Zhu Yunhuan smiled faintly and said, "Let's go to Fengtian Palace."

……

at the same time.

In the dim morning light.

Outside the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City, there were already dense crowds of civil and military officials standing there, wearing clothes of various colors and inlaid with patches of different ranks.

The ministers yawned helplessly, and the cool air in the early morning was filled with the whispers of groups of people talking.

It seems like another normal day of waking up early...

Forbidden City, Meridian Gate.

Most people don't realize it.

In this seemingly ordinary morning light, in the sounds of chatter that can be heard every day, there is already a hint of solemnity hidden.

The Huaixi military generals, led by Lan Yu and Chang Sheng, gathered together.

Normally they would stick together, and because they were usually arrogant and self-righteous, the upright civil servants would often keep their distance from them, so even when they gathered together they looked very normal.

"Have you all...made your arrangements?" Lan Yu lowered his voice but held his head high.

Ever since the death of Crown Prince Zhu Biao.

The Huaixi generals led by Lan Yu suddenly lost their backbone and became silent and depressed for a long time. Even though Lan Yu was not very smart and could not figure out the details and twists and turns, he could still sense this subtle change.

But today, this group of people all straightened their backs!

Because they have a backbone again - the Third Prince of the East Palace, who has almost faded from everyone's sight, really gave them a big surprise!

It wasn't just Lan Yu. Although the others hadn't slept all night, there was no sign of fatigue on their faces. Many of them were even trying hard to hold back the corners of their mouths.

Sweep away the usual silence and depression.

He has a rather high-spirited attitude.

Everyone looked at Lan Yu.

They all looked confident.

He lowered his voice and proudly discussed the results of his night's walking:

"The deputy commander guarding the East City Gate, I saved his life back then! There's absolutely no problem with him!"

"I've already informed the Central Military Governor's Office. Once the news of His Majesty's death gets out, he'll know what to do."

"Over at the Left Army Commander-in-Chief's Office..."

"I arrested another captain of the Imperial Guard."

"I gave back the little girl I just got yesterday without even touching her."

"..."

This group of Huaixi military generals not only had great contributions to the founding of the country, but also participated in many battles, both large and small, during the counterattacks by the remnant Yuan Dynasty in recent years.

Among the troops under the command of the Five Military Governor's Office, the main force in wartime.

Many of them have old ties with them.

Just as Zhu Yuanzhang estimated.

Those people are naturally still mainly loyal to the court, but in this particular situation, with no leader in the court, many of them can easily be used by the Huaixi nobles!

This is also the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang decided to pick up the butcher knife before.

As everyone was talking in low voices.

On the other side, about three to five feet away, a short and fat middle-aged official wearing a black gauze hat and a green robe glanced at them and snorted, his eyes and expression full of disdain.

"Master Huang, what's wrong?"

A tall and thin official beside him asked.

The short and fat official known as "Mr. Huang" is none other than Huang Zicheng, the increasingly popular academician of the Hanlin Academy in the court.

Even though he was only wearing a green robe, his official rank was not high.

But he was in the Hanlin Academy.

He was also the companion scholar of Zhu Yunwen, the second prince of the Eastern Palace.

Since the death of Crown Prince Zhu Biao, the Second Prince of the Eastern Palace, Zhu Yunwen, has been serving His Majesty every day, going in and out of the Fengtian Hall to learn about state affairs. Everyone knows what his intention is.

The value of Huang Zicheng as the Eastern Palace tutor is naturally self-evident.
