On the official road a few miles away from Fengyang County.
A group of black armored guards surrounded the main road like stars surrounding the moon.
At the center of the encirclement.
A group of cars that were mainly golden in color stopped to rest.
This group was the crown prince's group that had specially come to Fengyang City to patrol after the preparations had been made in Yingtian Prefecture.
"Big brother, how long until we reach the place? My legs are about to break!"
"Heavens! Our father told us to fake an identity, but he didn't say that we had to walk all the way here! Big brother…"
"Big brother, this isn't fair. Why did Fourth Brother have the right to ride a horse and follow them all the way? We have to use our two legs to get here!”
"That's right. Why can Fourth Brother ride a horse?”
...
Zhu Biao looked at his brothers who were wailing.
Although he felt a little sorry for them for walking all the way here.
However, when he thought of the instructions that his old man had whispered before he left, he felt a little uneasy.
"Your younger brothers have never suffered and have been spoiled since they were young. Go to Fengyang this time and see how they temper themselves! Since he was going to fake his identity. Then he might as well make it look like it and let them walk to Fengyang!”
When he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's seemingly ridiculous decision, he was shocked.
Zhu Biao was completely against it.
In the end, Empress Ma also stood up.
"It's indeed time to let them suffer. Your father came from the fields and fought his way to the world on horseback. You're better off. You suffered a lot when you were young. However, your brother and the others basically haven't suffered for a few days. One should not forget their roots. It was good to let them go!”
After hearing his parents say so.
Even if Zhu Biao had any objections, he couldn't say anything.
After all, this was for the good of his younger brothers.
Therefore, Zhu Biao followed the orders of Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma along the way.
Other than Zhu Di, who was still using his merchant identity.
The other princes all relied on their feet to walk down.
It was really because he brought them along.
This also resulted in a journey that could have been completed in a little more than a day.
They had been walking for almost two days.
They were still a few miles away from Fengyang.
"Alright, stop complaining. Fourth Brother has a strong body. Even if he really walked all the way, he wouldn't be like you! Don't forget your current status. Hurry up and get up. We're about to set off."
Zhu Biao, who was sitting in the carriage, glanced coldly at his brothers who were resting on the ground.
Then, he gritted his teeth and gave the order to continue advancing.
When his carriage was a little further ahead.
After hearing the wails of his younger brothers behind him, he was shocked.
Although Zhu Biao couldn't bear to do so, he could only sigh slightly.
"Your Highness, the Prince of Yan has sent news from the front. We will reach Fengyang in a few more miles. It will be much better when we reach Fengyang Road. He asked if we should speed up?”
When the main force set off.
Zhu Di, who was leading the disguised caravan, sent back the news.
Zhu Di had disguised himself as a caravan and maintained a certain distance from the Crown Prince's caravan.
At the same time, they would also act as scouts.
"Sigh, let's maintain our current speed and move forward slowly."
Zhu Biao naturally knew that Old Si was here to urge them to hurry up.
However, there were a few burdens in the convoy.
If they were to speed up, wouldn't those few people who were walking directly sit on the ground and cry?
Therefore, Zhu Biao could only shake his head with a bitter smile.
The entire team slowly advanced.
When the convoy crossed the border and officially stepped into the territory of Fengyang City.
Zhu Biao looked at the wide and flat road and the faintly discernible Fengyang City in the distance.
He was getting more and more excited.
"Strange! Logically speaking, the people of Fengyang City should have come out of the city to welcome the Crown Prince in person! Why were there not many people outside the city gates?”
When the convoy was only a short distance away from Fengyang City.
Zhu Biao's personal eunuch had also seen the scene outside Fengyang City.
When he saw the figures outside the city gate of Fengyang City.
He thought that these people were here to welcome the Crown Prince's carriage.
However, when he walked in, he realized.
These people were not here to welcome them at all.
These people were just waiting in line to enter the city.
He even saw the caravan of the King of Yan not far ahead!
"Does this Fengyang County Magistrate not know when His Highness the Crown Prince will arrive? He was not prepared at all! It's simply..."
As the Crown Prince's personal eunuch, he was only a eunuch.
But it was still the Crown Prince's face!
No matter where he went, people would treat him respectfully.
After a long time, he also took everything as a matter of course.
After seeing that no one had come to welcome them outside the city, they were shocked.
Just as he was about to say a few bad things about Liu Bai to vent his displeasure...
Zhu Biao interrupted him.
"Imperial Father said that Fengyang City has its own set of rules. These rules are not like the laws! However, they were all abiding by it. Although we're here to patrol, we can't be above the people!”
"I, Zhu Biao, am the Crown Prince of Great Ming, but at the same time, I am also a citizen of Great Ming. These commoners can queue up to enter the city, so why can't I?”
"Pass down the order. Everyone, follow the example of the commoners and wait in line to enter the city! We can't lose the royal family's face in front of the commoners!”
