Zhu Yuanzhang felt that he had never been so eager to see someone before.
Zhu Gaoye's appearance made Zhu Yuanzhang's already exhausted state of mind begin to sprout new vitality.
This was something that the chief eunuch who often served Zhu Yuanzhang felt the most deeply.
After leaving the palace yesterday, the Emperor seemed to have become decades younger.
This made the chief eunuch very happy.
Zhu Di was speechless when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's scolding.
After the person who delivered the decree arrived at the King Yan's residence, he began to rush to the Imperial Palace without stopping. In the end, he even complained.
However, Zhu Di was not angry because of this. Instead, he felt a hint of joy.
This meant that his father was very satisfied with his illegitimate son.
He felt proud too. After all, like father, like son.
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Di standing there in a daze, he became even angrier.
"If you delay the time to see that child, we won't forgive you.”
These words woke Zhu Di up and he quickly prepared to go out with Zhu Yuanzhang, who had already changed into casual clothes.
At this moment, the Commander of the Brocade Guard walked in.
"Your Majesty, the shop has been bought and renovated according to your requirements.”
"I wonder when Your Majesty will go and take a look?”
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with a hint of praise. After all, he was the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. His efficiency was still acceptable.
"Let's get ready to leave the palace and take a look at the shops.”
"Oh right, did anyone approach that house from yesterday to today?”
The Commander of the Brocade Guard had already guessed that Zhu Yuanzhang would ask this question, so before he came, he had already asked the person in charge of guarding Zhu Gaoye's residence.
"Your Majesty, there are no suspicious people approaching. Moreover, the surroundings of the mansion are under the control of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. If there is any movement, this lowly official will deal with it immediately.”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded his head in satisfaction and then said to the commander of the Brocade Guard,
"Well done. You don't have to follow us today.”
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, the Jinyiwei commander's expression changed and said,
"Your Majesty is a man of ten thousand gold. How can you not have anyone to protect you? This lowly official is willing to accompany Your Majesty and protect Your Majesty.”
Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang once again refused the request of the Jinyiwei commander.
He was going to see his grandson, not to enter a dragon's pool or tiger's den. How could he be in danger?
If there was really danger, it would have happened yesterday. Why would it drag on until now?
"This is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the best place. There is no danger to speak of.”
"Besides, there's still Fourth Brother.”
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang call him, Zhu Di quickly replied,
"Imperial Father is right. Your son is here for everything!”
The Commander of the Brocade Guards wanted to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang again, but Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said,
"Alright, you can leave for now. We know what we're doing.”
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was determined not to let him follow him, the Commander of the Brocade Guard had no choice but to retreat.
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di walked out of the palace together.
When they passed by the shop that he had named,
Zhu Yuanzhang brought Zhu Di in and roughly looked around.
He wanted to familiarize himself with the environment in case Zhu Gaoye really came to visit the shop.
If he asked again, wouldn't he be exposed?
Under the introduction of the Jinyiwei in the shop, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di familiarized themselves with the general structure inside.
Then, he walked toward Zhu Gaoye's mansion again.
Not long after, the two of them arrived in front of Zhu Gaoye's mansion again.
However, this time, the door was not tightly shut like yesterday.
Instead, it was wide open. A person dressed as a servant was standing at the door and looking in the direction he was coming from.
When the servant saw Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, his face revealed a hint of joy.
"The two of you are indeed punctual. My young master said that you would definitely arrive at this time, and you really arrived at this time.”
Hearing this servant's words, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were shocked."
"How did your young master know that we would arrive at this time?”
When the servant heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he scratched his head with a silly smile and said,
"This is what the young master said. He asked me to wait for you at the entrance of the manor at this time, but he didn't tell me why. If you want to know, you can ask the young master yourself.”
After saying that, the servant brought Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di into the residence.
Zhu Gaoye was already waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di in the living room.
Seeing that the two of them had come as promised, Zhu Gaoye was very happy.
The fact that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di could come meant that the two of them really had the intention to join his rebellion team.
Otherwise, after what he said yesterday, even if the two of them didn't go to the government to report him...
At the very least, they would hide far away from him and not come close to him.
"Brother Yan and Brother Zhang are truly trustworthy people.”
After seeing Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, Zhu Gaoye greeted them first.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said,"
"I didn't get the Saint Slaying Technique yesterday, so I couldn't sleep at night after I went back. I tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. You must tell me the Saint Slaying Technique today, or I won't leave.”
Zhu Di also echoed,
"That's right. You must tell us about the Saint Slaying Technique today. Don't keep us in suspense.”
The fact that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di were able to come today was already a clear indication of their intentions. Therefore, Zhu Gaoye was prepared to let these two people see his secret base first and completely subdue them.
"There's no hurry about killing the saint. I'll show you something good first.”
When Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di heard Zhu Gaoye's words, they immediately became interested.
"What's so good that it's so mysterious?”
Zhu Gaoye didn't say anything. He took the lead and walked toward the door.
Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di quickly followed.
Zhu Gaoye led the two of them around the mansion and came to a huge rockery.
From the outside, there was nothing unusual about the fake mountain.
Zhu Gaoye twisted a few mechanisms on the rockery, and then the rockery split open on both sides. Soon, it became a secret room-like room.
Zhu Gaoye said,"
"Please follow me."
After saying that, he walked up first. Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di did not suspect him and followed him.
Following Zhu Gaoye's operation, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di felt a tremor under their feet, and their bodies were slowly descending.
The three of them took the hand-operated lift and went underground. It was the first time Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di had seen such a magical thing as a hand-operated lift. They could not help but click their tongues in wonder.
But soon, the two of them fell into an even greater shock.
