He simply put down the teacup with a calm expression and said, "You've been kneeling for so long, get up, the ground is cold."

Zhu Di felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang rarely paid attention to these details for his princes, and children who were not favored were always prone to worry about these things.

This also made Zhu Di feel more confident. He stood up, a smile appeared on his face, and he patted his chest and said, "For a soldier, this little thing is nothing."

Zhu Yuanzhang was a partial person and a rough man, so he didn't notice Zhu Di's slight change of mood. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Since you happened to be here today, I just happened to tell you about this matter. Now that we are on the same page, it's up to you to decide what to do next."

"If there's nothing else, go back to your Prince Yan's Mansion."

"I'm tired too."

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he was ready to send Zhu Di away. Zhu Di came to Huang's house just because he was sleepy and someone gave him a pillow.

But he hadn't finished reading the thick stack of information.

Of course, I can't watch it in front of Zhu Di.

Before coming here, Zhu Di had already made plans for the worst, but he did not expect such a sudden turn of events today. He was very excited, and what he wanted to do most now was to verify the truthfulness of Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang was much more humane than ordinary emperors, the royal family was still the royal family, and the saying "the emperor is ruthless" still applied.

Even if Zhu Di's heart was moved by Zhu Yuanzhang's casual words of concern.

Should be vigilant.

He will never forget it.

At this moment, Zhu Di was naturally eager to return to Prince Yan's Mansion to discuss the matter with Monk Daoyan, so he did not say anything else.

He immediately clasped his fists and bowed respectfully: "Since Your Majesty is tired, I really can't disturb you any further. I will take my leave now. I will definitely take care of what Your Majesty has said!"

Zhu Yuanzhang pretended to be asleep and nodded: "Yeah."

Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang, then left the main courtyard of the Huang Mansion, and then left the Huang Mansion and rushed all the way to his own Prince Yan's Mansion...

Inside the Prince of Yan's Mansion.

Monk Daoyan was still sitting cross-legged in the study, his eyes slightly closed, his left hand raised in an upright position, and my string of Buddhist beads slowly twirling in his right hand. He was wearing a black cassock, and at first glance he looked very solemn.

I heard footsteps approaching from far away outside.

Monk Daoyan's hands, which were counting the Buddhist beads, suddenly stopped, and he clenched the beads tightly in his right hand. Because he squeezed too hard, his fingertips turned slightly white - it was obvious that his heart was far less calm than he appeared on the surface.

His letter conveying intelligence was intercepted.

No matter who intercepted it...it would be a disaster for his subsequent plans...

Even...

All the more than ten years of waiting may be burned to ashes.

Monk Daoyan slowly opened his eyes, and at the same time, the door of the study was pushed open with a "bang".

"The prince is back? How is it?" Monk Daoyan stood up and asked with some trepidation in his heart, his eyes not as calm as before.

Zhu Di brought a lot of information with him on this trip.

Moreover, his excitement was still undiminished, so as soon as he entered the room, he asked directly, "Master Daoyan... did Zhu Yunhuan... or the people behind him... do something outrageous in Yingtian Prefecture?!"

As soon as this question was asked.

But Monk Daoyan was a little confused...

Wasn't he trying to determine if the letter had been read by the person in the private residence? A leak of intelligence, at best, is a matter of life and death. Why was he suddenly asking this?

Of course, the next moment.

Monk Daoyan noticed Zhu Di's unusual mood—excited, smiling, and even a little red in the face...

"Your Highness seems very happy?" Daoyan asked with a strange look on his face.

"Happy..." Zhu Di finally realized that he was a little confused and even his speech was incoherent.

But he was in a very good mood. He simply let out the emotions he had suppressed before and laughed out loud, "Hahahaha! Master Daoyan, I am really happy! What father meant was... he also wants to respond to Tianfu and regain that position!"

"This..." Monk Daoyan had naturally never imagined that Zhu Di's visit to the Huang Mansion would have such an outcome. He was immediately confused and paused before asking, "What do you mean by this, Your Highness?"

Zhu Di walked with great speed, striding back to the armchair behind the desk and sitting down. He took a deep breath to clear his mind, then smiled and said, "First of all, your tampered intelligence letter has indeed fallen into the hands of my father."

"But when the Emperor learned of this, although he was dissatisfied with my scheme against him, he didn't reprimand me too much. Instead, he made his intentions clear to me: Now he has changed his mind! He also wants to go back, so all the things we did, instigating the Huaixi nobles to stir up trouble in Yingtian Prefecture, are aligned with his approach. Because if he wants to go back, his only chance will be to wait for the Huaixi nobles and that brat Zhu Yunhuan to fall out! Master Daoyan, do you understand now?"

"There's always light at the end of the tunnel!" Monk Daoyan naturally understood what he heard and sighed in disbelief.
