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

Jiang Li is indeed a smart man.

They immediately quieted down, staring intently at Dai Sigong's old face, which looked extremely kind at the moment.

But he didn't understand that he and Dai Sigong were both knocked down by that old bastard.

As a commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, I have no choice.

Instead, this old man was so agile, and he ran away?

Dai Sigong breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he tremblingly took out the small note he had prepared earlier from his sleeve and showed it to Jiang Li through the crack in the window.

[Don't be alarmed, Your Majesty.]

Jiang Li felt a little relieved, but then he felt something was wrong. His Majesty was fine, so even if he wanted to hold him accountable for dereliction of duty, he should have been thrown into prison, right?

Without waiting for him to think about it.

The next sentence was so shocking that he felt like he was struck by a bolt from the blue.

[The fake death was discovered by the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace. He knocked you and me unconscious, planned a coup, and successfully ascended the throne.]

He knows about the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace.

That timid, dull, stupid, cowardly and weak grandson of the Third Emperor couldn't even draw the smallest bow.

He? He was the commander of the Imperial Guards?

That old bastard from yesterday wasn't someone else, but him!? How is this possible?

Of course, this is not the craziest thing.

Planning a coup?

Successfully ascended the throne?????

What the hell is going on here? They're planning a coup while His Majesty is still alive. Are they tired of living? And they've even succeeded in ascending the throne? Are they trying to stomp on His Majesty's face?

Jiang Li stared at the note in Dai Sigong's hand, suspecting that the old man was teasing him.

[I know you are in a hurry, but don't be anxious yet. 】

[The Third Prince was unaware that His Majesty was still alive, and his ascension to the throne was tacitly approved by His Majesty. The entire court, both civil and military officials, believed His Majesty to have passed away.]

[His Majesty wants you to feign ignorance and serve the Third Prince.]

[Details will be given later.]

Dai Sigong knew that he was in danger of being discovered at any time, so he didn't dare to say much. He just briefly told Jiang Li the general situation and let Jiang Li know what Zhu Yuanzhang meant.

After the incident, the kind and familiar old face disappeared.

Jiang Li was left alone with the CPU down and in a mess.

now.

Jiang Li wanted to pick up that damn old man Dai Sigong and beat him up - why don't you explain yourself clearly? He is not young anymore, but he runs faster than anyone else.

However, Jiang Li and Dai Sigong both served Zhu Yuanzhang.

He also knew the old man's character. As a doctor, he was the most cautious in his words and would never speak carelessly about things that he was unsure of.

Plus.

In this matter, he and Dai Sigong can be considered to be brothers in distress.

So Jiang Li prepared himself mentally for a while.

I still listened to Dai Sigong's words.

"Your Majesty is still alive..."

"Yet he faked his own death to the entire court, tacitly approving the Third Prince's ascension to the throne!"

"This kind of treatment could only have been bestowed upon the late Crown Prince! How on earth did the Third Prince of the Eastern Palace, who had never been in the limelight, become on par with the Crown Prince overnight?!"

"Something must have happened that I absolutely couldn't have anticipated. This Third Prince is definitely not someone to be trifled with!"

Jiang Li thought about it carefully, narrowed his eyes slightly, and couldn't help but take a breath.

……

The front hall of the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Yunhuan carefully took the box down from the antique display cabinet, as if protecting a baby, took out the sweet potato vines and three sweet potatoes inside, and placed them in the simple nutrient solution made with rice vinegar in front of him.

Finish these.

Zhu Yunhuan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh..."

To be honest, even when he was confronting the officials of the Cultural Relics Department in the Fengtian Hall, he was not as nervous as he is now. After all, he had made many preparations at that time. At the very least, he still had the big knife of the Huaixi nobles. It would be conservative to say that he was 80% to 90% sure.

But it is basically impossible to get these sweet potato vines and sweet potatoes again.

Unless someone drives a ship to America and back.

Ma Sanbao looked at the "ordinary" vines in the water, his face filled with curiosity - what on earth could make His Majesty so nervous?

But he knew that this was not something he was qualified to ask.

"Your Majesty, you almost didn't sleep last night, and you have been busy all morning today. At noon, you still have to meet with concubines and ministers to pay homage to the late emperor. Why don't you take a rest first?" Ma Sanbao looked at Zhu Yunhuan with some heartache.

Even though the world of the Ming Dynasty has changed, and even though this young man has become the leader of the Ming Dynasty, he has been with Zhu Yunhuan for eight years. To be frank, he has watched His Majesty grow up...

After being reminded by Ma Sanbao, Zhu Yunhuan also came to his senses.

Feeling a little tired, he stretched and yawned, "Being an emperor is really not an easy job!"

"Your Majesty, that's certainly no problem!" Ma Sanbao said with a smile.

Zhu Yunhuan secretly took a deep breath to cheer himself up. Although the current situation was preliminarily settled, he knew that it was still far from true stability.

The military generals in Huaixi, the vassal kings in the frontier, the civil officials in the court... If there is a problem in any link, he will be in danger again, and may even be eaten alive by some people.

For example, the big promise he painted for the Huaixi generals.

The reason they are so highly motivated now is probably because they are overwhelmed by excitement, and their true nature will soon show up again.

Zhu Yunhuan had a lot to do.

But this also requires manpower.

Think of this.

He looked at Ma Sanbao and said, "Go to the Ministry of War and get me all the information about the soldiers in the garrisons near the capital, as well as all the information since the founding of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Yunhuan never thinks things are right.

Don't think that he has now tied up all the civil and military officials.

But to be honest, the Huaixi nobles were not his people, nor were Liu Sanwu, Zhan Hui, Fu Youwen and the like.

The first step to taking power is to have at least a group of personal soldiers who truly belong to you!
