After saying this, Zhu Di immediately frowned and said in confusion, "But I don't understand. If you want to see through your many cautious measures, it will take a lot of time, effort and manpower to have such a possibility..."

"The one who is unwilling to accept and wants the throne... is this king."

"Even if he wanted to keep an eye on his good grandson, he should have kept an eye on me. Why would he keep an eye on you, a chanting monk?"

"Even if you have been close to this king..."

"But he doesn't focus on me but on you. Isn't that a bit too outrageous?"

This was what Zhu Di could not understand the most. He handed over all the intelligence acquisition and message transmission to Monk Daoyan, which was a deliberate defense. In this way, those who wanted to plot against him, Zhu Di, would basically only watch his every move in vain, and were destined to get no results.

Monk Daoyan was his chief monk.

Preaching and discussing Buddhism is a perfectly normal thing. Even if they really noticed that Zhu Di was overly "worshipping Buddhism and Taoism", at most... they would just conduct a brief investigation. Monk Daoyan also had other defensive measures.

Something that should be foolproof...

When Zhu Di complained about this unconvincedly, the monk Daoyan in front of him said bitterly: "Your Highness doesn't understand, and I don't understand even more..."

At this moment, there really were a thousand alpaca living in his heart.

It's just... very unreasonable!

It's like there's something wrong with that old emperor's body... Ever since he came to Beiping Prefecture, he has been targeting me like crazy.

There is no logic.

Direct and brainless targeting!

From the moment he tried to infiltrate Qingshou Temple and investigate himself, he had to be extremely cautious... Unfortunately, he failed in the end. When the tragic news came unexpectedly today, Monk Daoyan discovered that the old emperor must have had countless people watching him, both openly and covertly, far more than his most exaggerated estimate!

He was captured and targeted by Emperor Hongwu.

Who can he talk to?

However, Monk Daoyan was still very calm after all. Even though he was extremely helpless, puzzled and aggrieved in his heart, he quickly withdrew his thoughts and put aside this aggrieved feeling for the time being.

He took a deep breath, looked at Zhu Di steadily, and said, "But Your Majesty, it is not so important to delve into why the person in the private residence is so wary of this poor monk. The most important thing is that this is almost an established fact."

"The person in the private residence may have read the letter I sent to Yingtian Prefecture."

"What will happen next..."

"This is what we should consider right now... the most important thing." At the end, he emphasized to Zhu Di almost word by word.

Zhu Di naturally came to his senses immediately.

As Monk Daoyan finished speaking, Zhu Di felt his hands and feet become somewhat weak, as if even his back was no longer as straight as before.

His father knew that he was trying to instigate the Huaixi nobles in Yingtian Prefecture.

what does this mean?

Lost his favor? Would this plan be aborted, with not even the last hand to play, and that position practically out of reach? Or... worse still, would he secretly pass this news on to Yingtian Prefecture? After all, his father had already made it clear: he truly wanted Zhu Yunhuan to be emperor!

Even if the result is good, it seems that he will no longer have a chance of becoming emperor?

And the worst outcome...

Stripping of title and banning? Or even losing one's life? — The lesson from the past was fresh in their minds. Both that man and that young boy Zhu Yunhuan were incredibly daring, capable of violating the Imperial Ming Ancestor's Instructions. They were not the kind of people who would show mercy!

"Your Highness, the more times like this come, the more you must not panic!" Monk Daoyan raised his hand and reminded with a serious expression.
