Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

Daoyan rode his horse while taking a closer look.

But he couldn't help but widen his eyes, with a look of surprise on his face: "No, the other party is wearing a Feiyu suit, is that a Jinyiwei!?"

Zhu Di also saw it clearly at this time.

The high-spirited look on his face froze, his eyes fixed, and he immediately reined in the horse's reins, whipped it, and ordered, "Stop first!"

"Whoa!" A group of people and horses stopped immediately, and the sudden stop of the horses' hooves raised a cloud of dust on the ground.

Zhu Di frowned.

He stared intently at a team of Jinyiwei who were galloping along the road ahead, his face full of confusion and hesitation.

"Jinyiwei?"

"The Emperor has passed away, why would the Imperial Guards come to Peking at this time?"

"Is there any news about Master Daoyan?"

Zhu Di looked back at Daoyan and asked tentatively.

Daoyan also shook his head, changing his usual calm demeanor to reveal a serious expression: "No news..."

"Your Majesty passed away suddenly without a will. Who knows what chaos is happening in the capital right now. Logically speaking, the Imperial Guards wouldn't be able to spare any manpower at this time. Even if they wanted to inform the princes of His Majesty's passing, they wouldn't be able to mobilize any of their men."

Although I only confirmed the other person's identity from a distance.

But Daoyan only thought about it for a moment and realized that something was strange, very strange!

The two looked at each other.

Maintaining the status quo.

The oncoming troops were extremely fast, and soon they arrived in front of them. They reined in their horses, then dismounted and knelt on the ground with their fists clasped. "Your humble servant, Zhao Baiqiang, a captain of the Jinyiwei, pays homage to His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan."

Zhu Di raised an eyebrow, forcing himself to remain calm. He dismounted along with Dao Yan and his entourage, pretending to know nothing. He asked curiously, "Please stand up. Captain Zhao has come here, but what is the emperor's intention?"

Calculate the time.

It has only been seven or eight days since Zhu Yuanzhang passed away.

The situation is unclear now, and I don’t know what the situation is in the capital. Of course, I can’t reveal that I know about this, otherwise it would be equivalent to saying directly: I have a spy in Yingtian Prefecture!

Daoyan stood behind Zhu Di.

He lowered his head, but a satisfied smile played at the corner of his mouth. "Even at this moment, you are still able to maintain a clear mind and calmness, think carefully, and act with discretion. You truly have the demeanor of an emperor who can accomplish great things!"

Zhao Baiqiang and several Jinyiwei behind him stood up skillfully.

He clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, Prince of Yan, I have come to Beiping Prefecture for two reasons."

"First, Your Highness, the Prince of Yan, express your condolences. His Majesty passed away seven days ago."

As soon as these words came out.

Zhu Di immediately revealed an expression of shock and sorrow, sighing, "What? Passing away? Father was clearly in excellent health, how could he pass away at this time!?"

"Father!!!"

"I will go back immediately to see you for the last time!"

For a guy who can pretend to be crazy and stupid in order to delay time and accumulate strength, his acting skills are obviously not a weakness. Besides, the one who died was his own father after all.

Zhu Di uttered a heartfelt sigh.

of course.

This did not prevent him from finding out information.

Zhu Di wiped away his tears and looked at Zhao Baiqiang with a sad expression. "May I ask Captain Zhao, did my father leave behind any edicts? What is the current situation in the capital?"

Zhao Baiqiang clasped his fists and bowed again: "This is the second mission of this humble official. Your Highness, Prince of Yan, please accept my order!"

Hear the words.

Zhu Di was slightly stunned.

He turned his head to look at Daoyan, his eyes questioning him: What's going on? Didn't you say that the emperor didn't leave any will? Why is someone here to deliver the will now?

However, Zhu Di knew that now was not the time to lose his composure.

He immediately calmed himself down and knelt down to receive the order: "Your son receives the order."

At the same time, Daoyan and the people behind him knelt on the ground.

Zhu Di thought secretly in his heart:

The spies in the capital said that there was no will, which means that there was no will in public, but the Jinyiwei came to convey the will to him secretly... Could it be... that the emperor favored him?

Think of this.

Zhu Di's heart suddenly began to beat wildly.
