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

For him, this was the signal he least wanted to see. It at least meant that his father had recovered from the news of his second and third brothers' deaths, and he was not upset about losing the throne!

Zhu Di suppressed his fear and didn't show it on his face. He walked to Zhu Yuanzhang with a serious expression as usual and called out in a slightly reserved tone, "Dad."

Zhu Yuanzhang put the remaining melon seeds in his hand back into his pocket.

He patted the remaining melon seed shells on his hands and said, "Have you seen and listened to everything you need to see? Let's go for a walk!"

After saying that, he walked down the stairs with his hands behind his back. Emperor Hongwu never sought other people's opinions when he spoke or did anything. He was the only one who proposed anything and no one else had any objections.

He is both the emperor and the father.

Although Zhu Di's heart was beating fast, he naturally did not dare to disobey and could only follow Zhu Yuanzhang down the stairs.

The upper floor of the restaurant is an area reserved for VIPs and is sparsely populated.

However, the further down you go, the more lively it becomes. When you reach the bottom, you even need to struggle to push through the crowd to move forward.

At this time, on the high platform specially set aside for the gentleman reading the newspaper, the temporary law temporarily promulgated by the court and notified to the people and officials in all parts of the Ming Dynasty was being read.

The article even vividly describes cases in which illegal merchants and gentry in the Yingtian Prefecture were severely punished for forcing innocent people to buy and sell. Although it is an important political bill of the court, the content is written in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.

When Zhu Di finally made his way through the crowd and followed Zhu Yuanzhang to the door, the gavel rang behind him and thunderous cheers erupted:

"Good! This is how forced buying and selling should be handled! Exile all these evil-hearted people! Your Majesty is wise!"

"That's right! Let's see who dares to commit crimes against the wind and who dares to bully others."

"Now I'm not afraid anymore. I'll find someone to sell some of our anthracite coal to and buy my kids a new pair of shoes!"

"..."

Even though Zhu Di had figured this out in the upper box a long time ago, he still couldn't help feeling bitter at this moment - the people of this world have really figured out what they are thinking... That guy really figured it out!

at the same time.

The familiar face in front of him turned around and looked at the people in Cuiming Tower, a smile even appearing in the corners of his eyes: "Old Fourth, do you think the New Year celebrations in Beiping Prefecture are very lively this year?"

Hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Di's heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if the things he had been worrying about were becoming a reality!

"Father asked me this... What does this mean!?"

"Did he want to tell me plainly that he didn't care about the humiliation of his previous mishap? Did he not care about the pain and hatred of his two sons who were decapitated and beheaded?"

"He... acquiesced to the person who had caused his downfall... in helping that young Zhu Yunhuan secure the throne!?"

Although it was just a casual question asked by Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di read a lot of information from it.

My heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

Before this.

He had vaguely guessed and thought about this possibility in his mind.

After all, Yingtian Prefecture had indeed accomplished many remarkable things, and the people of the country had indeed lived a much better life because of them. And the person behind Zhu Yunhuan hadn't shown any intention of controlling the government, usurping the throne, or plotting rebellion...

But he always thought in his heart that this was his arrogant father, the Hongwu Emperor who was powerful and influential throughout the world.

I still have a glimmer of hope for Zhu Yuanzhang in my heart.

Now, his arrogant father Piaopiao's words completely shattered the hope in his heart...

This……

This was indeed what Zhu Yuanzhang meant.

Of course, he also felt sorry for the grandson in Yingtian Prefecture, but the fourth son in Beiping Prefecture was also a close relative. They were all flesh and blood. As an old man, who wouldn't want his children and grandchildren to be well?
