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

"What do you mean by this?"

Seeing the expression on Monk Wude's face, Zhu Di's heart skipped a beat, and his heart was in his throat: This operation was extremely covert, and the utmost precautions were taken. There was absolutely no way it could be discovered, right?

After a pause, he looked at Monk Daoyan with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Monk Daoyan was at a loss for a moment. After all, the two places were thousands of miles apart, and no one could guess what had happened. However, his expression remained calm.

One thing he was certain of was that Yingtian Prefecture was probably unaware of their actions, so he slowly spoke to reassure them, "Your Highness, don't worry. If Wude's purpose had been discovered, he would have been killed and would never have been able to return to Beiping."

Monk Wude nodded.

"Just as Master said, this time I quietly entered Nanzhili and quietly left Nanzhili without alerting anyone."

"At first, I calmly met Master Jingru, the head monk of His Majesty King Zhou. Following Master's instructions, I used the common people and the people of the world to appeal to his sentiments and reason. Master Jingru actually agreed to deliver a message on my behalf, seeking information about the forbidden area."

"only……"

"Master Jingru was also turned away."

"The master said that His Royal Highness Prince Zhou was summoned by the current emperor, and then he closed the hospital, saying that he was in seclusion to study medicine and would not go out again, nor would he see outsiders."

Monk Wude narrated his experience in a concise and clear manner.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Di's face showed a trace of worry. He said, "After being summoned by the new emperor, he voluntarily went into seclusion? That person... is going to attack my fifth brother?"

After thinking for a moment, his face was suddenly filled with a mixture of realization and nervousness.

"Yes, the man behind the Huaixi nobles is determined to deal with us, the vassal kings! He controlled the Huaixi nobles and made them withdraw their hands. He is guarding against us. Now that more than two months have passed, the overall situation can be considered to be settled..."

"That person's target naturally fell on us."

"Do you know what the situation is like with my fifth brother?" Zhu Di asked with concern. On the one hand, he was really worried about his brother, but on the other hand, he needed to judge his own situation based on Zhu Su's situation.

Daoyan shook his head calmly:

"His Royal Highness Prince Zhou should be fine, at least for now."

"First of all, Jingru only said that His Royal Highness Prince Zhou took the initiative to go into seclusion, and did not mention the involvement of the Jinyiwei or the Imperial Guard. It can be seen that the situation is not serious."

"Secondly, although the political situation in Yingtian Prefecture has just been settled, the vassal kings across the country actually have a lot of troops at their disposal. It would be too hasty to act against them now. Judging from that man's previous behavior, he is not a radical or impatient person."

"I'm afraid this move is being done step by step, perhaps with a tentative intention." Daoyan frowned slightly and analyzed thoughtfully.

It has to be said that Monk Daoyan did guess most of Zhu Yunhuan's thoughts - the vassal kings must be dealt with, but it must be done slowly, otherwise the likes of Qin Wang Zhu Chong and Jin Wang Zhu Gang might cause trouble.

Although he could play a blue jade card without haste.

But the struggle between the two sides ultimately damaged the Ming Dynasty's manpower and national strength. This is called internal strife and is not cost-effective.

However, Zhu Yunhuan's plan for Zhu Su was limited by the times, and no matter how powerful Monk Daoyan was, he could not have guessed it.

As Daoyan finished speaking, the monk Wude beside him also looked at his master with respect and responded, "Based on my investigation over the past few days, the situation in the palace is indeed quiet. There is no news of His Majesty King Zhou being in trouble."

Zhu Di secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But he naturally didn't dare to let go completely. After thinking for a moment, he immediately asked with concern, "You went to Yingtian Prefecture and looked around. Regarding the person behind the Huaixi nobles... do you have any clues?"
