For an entire two hours, Zhu Yuanzhang exaggerated the news he had heard from Fang Yunfei to the Crown Prince.
Zhu Biao was dumbfounded!
"This…this was all your idea, Imperial Father?”
The Crown Prince asked in surprise.
Even though Korea and China had been neighbors since ancient times.
However, because of Northern Yuan, Ming didn't know much about Korea.
It was only recently that the Ming army recovered Tieling that the imperial court learned about the general situation in Koryo.
Zhu Biao had never expected that his father would know so much about Korea that he was certain that they would surrender without a fight.
His father was indeed farsighted.
He was indeed a wise ruler of an ancient generation!
"Ahem…"
"More or less!"
"Most of it was thought of by Father."
"Of course, I also took into account the opinions of others.”
Zhu Yuanzhang unceremoniously took all the credit.
"But father, military affairs are not child's play. Even a lion will use its full strength to hunt a rabbit!"
"Although Imperial Father is certain that Goryeo will surrender without a fight, your son still suggests that I, Great Ming, should be cautious to prevent any accidents.”
The Crown Prince thought for a moment, but he still had to be cautious.
"Yes! Biao 'er is right!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry at the Crown Prince's mature and prudent attitude. Instead, he felt very gratified!
The most important thing in governing a big country was to be cautious!
Otherwise, if he took too big a step, it would be easy to pull his balls.
"How about this? Second and Third Brother, don't move for the time being. Just tell Fourth Brother to be on standby.”
"His place is closest to Liaodong, and there are canals to transport grain.”
"Also, keep an eye on the movements of Goryeo.”
"Once Goryeo really surrenders, tell me immediately!”
Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.
"Your son will obey!"
Crown Prince Zhu Biao nodded in agreement and went out to continue handling the court affairs.
……
For several days, Zhu Yuanzhang stayed in the palace and did not go out. He was always concerned about the changes in Korea.
"Imperial Father, Goryeo has surrendered! Goryeo surrendered!"
"Goryeo surrendered! Your Majesty, Goryeo has surrendered!"
Suddenly, the Crown Prince and Lan Yu's shouts came from outside the palace.
Immediately after, the door to the royal study was pushed open, and the crown prince rushed in excitedly.
Lan Yu carried the Liaodong Border Army's 800 Li Expedition and followed closely behind.
"As expected, Imperial Father!"
"General Lee Seong-Gyu led the Goryeo army to Duck. They suddenly rebelled after leaving the Wahua Island by the Green River.”
"Not only did he collude with the other western ministers to kill the army sent by the eastern class, but he also returned to occupy the capital of Korea, Hanyang!”
"Now, the Goryeo royal family and the Eastern Ministers who are close to Northern Yuan have become his prisoners. The Western Ministers have also controlled the entire Goryeo territory.”
"In order to appease the people, Li Chenggui personally went to Liaodong to contact the generals of my Ming Dynasty, hoping that father could confer him the title of king.”
"In addition, that bunch of Western ministers also hope that our Great Ming will give them a new country name to show that they cannot live under the same sky as Korea and Northern Yuan!”
"This is Li Chenggui's letter of credence and our general's report.”
The Crown Prince took 800 Li Jia from Lan Yu and hurriedly handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang. His eyes were filled with admiration.
Father is really too amazing!
He lived deep in the palace and could see thousands of miles away.
He actually described the cause and effect of the Korean mutiny exactly!
Even Kong Ming would have to admit defeat.
"No, no! I'm just using other people's tea time to think.”
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but act tough when he saw Zhu Biao's admiring gaze.
The Crown Prince had always been steady. He had never experienced such a crazy feeling of worshipping him since he was ten years old.
The feeling of posturing was really good!
Lan Yu tactfully shut her mouth and didn't expose Zhu Yuanzhang's act of plagiarizing Fang Yunfei's idea.
"Father's teachings are correct. Your son will definitely follow Imperial Father's example!"
Zhu Biao said sincerely.
"Yes! Hand over the letter."
"This servant will obey!"
A eunuch handed the letter to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang read through it quickly.
The entire process of Goryeo's mutiny was exactly the same as what Fang Yunfei had said, except for some minor differences.
"Good! Sure!"
"It is a blessing for our Ming Dynasty to cut off a great help of Northern Yuan without using any weapons!”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile as he watched.
Seeing the usually serious Zhu Yuanzhang so excited, Crown Prince Zhu Biao also felt relieved.
He collapsed to the ground as if he had lost all his strength.
"Biao Er! Biao Er, what's wrong?"
"Imperial physician, where's the imperial physician?"
Seeing Zhu Biao faint, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately became anxious. He helped Zhu Biao up and shouted.
Lan Yu rushed out of the royal study to call the imperial physician on duty to treat the Crown Prince.
"Reporting to the emperor, during this period of time, because of the incident in Korea, His Highness the Crown Prince has been up and down day and night.”
"Your…Your Highness is just tired!”
An Eastern Palace eunuch who was in charge of serving the Crown Prince cried out.
"What is it? Illness from overwork? Back carbuncle relapse? Take off the crown prince's dragon robe. I want to see his condition.”
Hearing the reason for the Crown Prince's illness, Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened and he ordered the eunuchs to take off the Crown Prince's dragon robe.
"This servant will obey!"
The eunuch carefully took off the crown prince's dragon robe, revealing Zhu Biao's back.
The red lump on his back was as big as a pigeon egg. It was firm and translucent.
The surrounding skin was slightly hot, and the middle had already started to fester.
This was a typical symptom of back carbuncle. If it was not treated in time, it was easy for the whole body to be infected.
"Hiss…"
Seeing the carbuncle on the Crown Prince's back, Zhu Yuanzhang and Lan Yu sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time.
Could it really be like what Fang brat said, the Crown Prince's back carbuncle was caused by exhaustion?
"Imperial Father, your son is fine. It was just that she had been overworking these few days. She would be fine after a few days of rest.”
The Crown Prince had already woken up. When he saw Zhu Yuanzhang frowning, he couldn't help but comfort him.
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and draped his clothes over the Crown Prince.
"Biao 'er, go out with me in a few days.”
"Father will take you to see a doctor!"
