A gentle breeze blew past.
The only locust tree in the small courtyard rustled.
Zhang Qing simply treated the fortune-telling stall as a table, and the three of them sat around the table.
Zhu Biao gave Zhu Yuanzhang a look and stood up solemnly. He cupped his hands and bowed,
"Thank you for saving my life, Daoist Priest Zhang Xiao.”
In the end, he was still the Ming Crown Prince who was used to seeing storms.
Although he was surprised that the fortune-teller was a young Taoist priest who was much younger than him, he quickly came back to his senses.
"How has the Crown Prince been these few days?”
Zhang Qing asked with a smile.
"Ahem!"
Zhu Biao smiled bitterly.
It could only be described as suffering.
He was already extremely unlucky.
If not for the two protective talismans, he would probably be dead by now.
Zhu Biao shook his head." Daoist Priest Zhang Xiao's Protective Talisman saved my life twice. It was a close call."”
Then, his expression became more solemn as he asked,"But I heard from Imperial Father that in the future, things like this will happen one after another?”
"Daoist Priest Zhang Xiao's methods are amazing. Is there a way to settle this once and for all?”
"My life is not only my own, but also the lives of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty. If you have a way, please enlighten me.”
After Zhu Biao finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang, who did not say a word, also looked over with a probing gaze.
This was true.
Biao 'er's life was indeed not just his. Biao' er was the heir of the Ming Empire and carried the rise and fall of the Ming Empire on his shoulders.
If Biao Er died, Da Ming would definitely set off a tsunami.
"There is a way, but with my current cultivation, I am far from being able to do it.”
Zhang Qing took a sip of the coarse tea and said frankly,"And as time passes, the tribulations that Your Highness will face will become more and more troublesome and terrifying.”
"In order to let the Crown Prince die, the tribulation even affected the people around him and affected the entire Great Ming.”
！！！！
His voice fell firmly.
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was gloomy.
Zhu Biao's pupils constricted when he heard this.
He recalled what had happened in the Hall of Heaven's Tribute this morning.
When the beam collapsed, a minister beside him was injured. Although his life was not in danger, he was still bedridden for ten days to half a month.
"Can you elaborate on how it affects the entire Great Ming Sect?”
" Today, the roof beam collapsed," Zhang Qing said." Tomorrow, it might be the Hall of Heaven's Tribute. It's not impossible that it will attract a natural disaster in the end!"”
Natural disasters?
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked at each other. The father and son saw the shock in each other's eyes.
Zhang Qing's words meant that because Zhu Biao didn't die according to his fate, in order to let him die, he would even bring disaster to the entire Ming Dynasty?
If that was the case, wouldn't Biao 'er become Da Ming's jinx?
Even though Zhu Yuanzhang was wise and mighty, his heart was in a mess. He subconsciously asked,
"Is what Little Daoist said true?"
"I swear on my Dao-heart that I'm not lying! Moreover, the two of you have seen what happened to the Crown Prince in the past two days with your own eyes. I believe you already know what happened.”
Zhang Qing's tone was firm, and his eyes were extremely clear from beginning to end.
Zhu Yuanzhang:
He didn't see any signs of Zhang Qing lying, and facts spoke louder than words.
On one side was the country that he had built through hard work, and on the other side was his only family.
Could it be that he had to choose between the two?
It was said that the Tian family was ruthless. If it was any other emperor, they would probably choose the former without hesitation.
But Old Zhu was different.
This was also the source of his pain.
Old Zhu didn't say anything.
Zhu Biao stood up resolutely and said,"
"If my existence will reduce Great Ming's fate, then I would rather die!”
After saying that, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and his determined expression softened."Imperial Father, you are not only my Imperial Father, but also the monarch father of millions of people in the world. You have often taught me that small righteousness is the thief of righteousness. If my life can be exchanged for the prosperity of the country and the peace of the people, it will be considered a worthy death!”
"You are the Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty who recovered the rivers and mountains. I will not let myself ruin your reputation.”
She felt the warmth from her son's palm.
"Biao Er."
Zhu Yuanzhang's face twitched and his eyes trembled.
She opened her mouth but only called out her son's name.
Biao 'er was usually gentle, and outsiders said that he was like the late Empress Ma.
However, only Zhu Yuanzhang knew that the determination in Biao 'er's bones was more like his own. Once he had decided on something, even ten cows could not pull him back.
If he wanted to die, he wouldn't be able to stop him.
'This is Zhu Biao, an Outer Saint and Inner King. If he doesn't die, he'll probably be a hero of his generation.'
As he sighed in his heart, Zhang Qing knew that it was about time.
He slowly refilled the two of them with new tea, and his eyes became solemn. He slowly asked,
"Your Highness, Your Majesty, there's no need to be anxious.”
"Don't you want to know what would have happened to Great Ming if His Highness the Crown Prince had died suddenly yesterday?”
"I can say with certainty that if the Crown Prince dies, the Great Ming will be flooded!”
