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

"The imperial court's men won't be able to catch up with us anytime soon!"

"As long as we have enough time to run far enough and erase all traces along the way, even the Embroidered Uniform Guard won't be able to find the Prince easily!"

Zhang Fu was also a loyal man. He had followed his father around Zhu Di since he was a child, and he was more anxious than anyone else at this moment.

After saying that, he looked at Xu Miaoyun, Zhu Gaochi and the others for help, saying, "Your Highness, Your Highness, please persuade the Prince! Saving his life is the most important thing!"

Xu Miaoyun and Zhu Gaochi nodded thoughtfully.

He was about to speak to Zhu Di.

It was Zhu Di's second son, Zhu Gaoxu, who spoke first: "Don't even mention my father, I want to fight back too! It's so damn frustrating to just run away like this!!"

Although he was younger than Zhu Gaochi, he was much taller, with a robust and fearless appearance.

Of the three brothers, the eldest, Zhu Gaochi, was wise, while the second, Zhu Gaoxu, was brave and fierce. From a young age, he followed Zhu Di and his subordinates Qiu Fu and Zhang Yu in the military camp, which naturally fostered his roguish and unruly nature.

“What if we turn back now, save Qiu Fu, Zhang Yu, and Tan Yuan’s lives, and go to Yingtian Prefecture with them? I think we might not lose our lives there. Fortune favors the bold, and who knows, we might even have a chance.”

"Although the current situation in Yingtian Prefecture is that the fate of the Duke of Liang and other nobles from Huaixi is uncertain, it is still not certain whether they are dead or alive."

"To say that they were really defeated by that brat Zhu Yunwen through sheer strength, I don't believe it! The Duke of Liang is so powerful! Aren't all the generals in Huaixi top-notch? I've seen them! How could they possibly have fallen into the hands of that brat Zhu Yunwen?"

"Zhu Yunwen must have used some underhanded tricks!"

"When I get to Yingtian Prefecture, I don't want to see him! I'll show him who's tougher!" As he said this, Zhu Gaoxu almost gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, looking defiant and unwilling to admit defeat.

He was originally a rough and uncouth man, and in the prime of his youth, he didn't think too much about things and acted on impulse.

After hearing this.

Zhang Fu was utterly exasperated, unsure of what to do with him: "My little darling, I asked you to persuade the Prince, why are you still stirring things up? In this situation, there's no time to worry about feeling aggrieved or not!..."

Zhu Gaoxu ignored him.

He merely snorted dismissively, then turned to his father, Zhu Di: "Father! Tell me what happened today! If you say forget it, then forget it. If you go back, I'll go back with you! We men on horseback aren't afraid of death!!"

The Prince of Han, a stubborn man who was even confined to his own house and still cursed indiscriminately, ultimately met his end by being steamed by his own nephew Zhu Zhanji, was a man with a rebellious nature.

He already felt frustrated by the idea of ​​running away, but since his father Zhu Di had taken the lead, he naturally wanted to join the group immediately.

He would say whatever his younger brother dreamed about.

The chubby eldest brother, Zhu Gaochi, also looked helpless, then advised, "Second brother, the situation is extraordinary now, don't act rashly!!!"

Zhu Gaoxu stubbornly retorted, "What do you mean by acting on impulse? I've never been afraid of Zhu Yunwen. Didn't he become emperor by relying on others?"

Zhu Gaochi was so angry that he was panting heavily: "What time is it? Don't you use your brain at all when you speak and act!"

Zhu Gaoxu: "You think you're the only one with brains? You think you're the smartest one, okay?"

Zhu Gaochi: "..."

My brother's gone wild; whatever he says is like talking to a brick wall.

Meanwhile, the third brother, Zhu Gaosui, watched his two older brothers arguing silently from his horseback, his shrewd eyes darting around. He didn't dare to say a word, and then, as always, he looked at his father, Zhu Di.

At this point, only Zhu Di could end the dispute: "Second son, shut up!"

"No... Father... I... I'm on your side, Father!" Zhu Gaoxu, who had been scolded, glared at Zhu Di with anger and stammered as he explained his position.

Zhu Di gave Zhu Gaoxu, who looked aggrieved, a stern look.

The bloodline suppression in his DNA effectively silenced Zhu Gaoxu, who dared not say another word. He could only heave with anger, his chest heaving, and roll his eyes away, saying, "Fine! Fine! Tell me what you're going to do!"

At this moment.

Unlike Zhang Fu, Princess Xu Miaoyun of Yan did not repeatedly try to persuade Zhu Di. Instead, she glanced at her sons and then said to Zhu Di as if joking, "Our eldest and second sons have been arguing since they were little. Once they start arguing, no one can persuade them. Only Your Highness can control them."

Her voice was not aggressive, but rather kind and gentle.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Di's tightly furrowed brows twitched, and his gaze flickered as he looked at Xu Miaoyun, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaoxu, and Zhu Gaosui.

After a while.

He then let out a long sigh: "I have failed your father and the others in their loyalty."

Zhang Fu breathed a sigh of relief and comforted him, saying, "Your Highness has not failed my father and the others in their loyalty. It is my father and uncles who wanted Your Highness to live, and it is what fulfilled their loyalty."

He knew that since Zhu Di had said those words, he had made his own decision.

He paused, then couldn't help but look at Xu Miaoyun and exclaimed, "Only the Princess Consort can persuade the Prince in this world."

He could tell, of course, that what Xu Miaoyun was saying, though seemingly about Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu arguing, was actually that the children were still young, impetuous and ignorant, and needed a dignified father to keep them in check.

That's why Zhu Di softened and made his decision.

Xu Miaoyun shook her head helplessly, feeling a bit bitter: her family had actually come to this point... All she could think about was that her family could be together again.

After this ordeal...

Having made his decision, Zhu Di put aside his previous hesitations and anxieties. He narrowed his eyes, fixed his gaze, and said proactively before Zhang Fu could urge him, "There's no time to lose! Let's set off immediately to avoid any unforeseen complications."

Zhang Fu's face lit up with joy, and he said, "Your Highness, that's the right way to think! But Your Highness doesn't need to be too nervous. Just go far away. Your Highness knows my father and uncles' abilities better than I do."
