Ming Dynasty, Yongle ten years.
Zhu Di returned triumphantly from his expedition to Arutai.
Ying Tian.
Prince Liang's residence.
The eight-year-old Prince of Liang, Zhu Gaoyan, was playing with crickets in the courtyard.
"Ding…signed in to Shadow Secret Guard, hidden in the world.”
The system's voice rang in his ears, but Zhu Gaoyan's face remained unchanged.
"Sigh! If he just wanted to make some money, why would he sign up with all kinds of forces for no reason?”
"I really don't want to be the emperor!"
"What bad intentions can a naughty child have?”
Ever since he transmigrated, Zhu Gaoyan became the fourth son of Emperor Yongle.
Moreover, he was only eight years old!!
However, even so, Zhu Di, who had a son at an old age, doted on his youngest son.
No matter how mischievous he was usually, he would just smile and ignore it.
Of course, Zhu Gaoyan was not just a troublemaker.
Over the years, he had signed in with the Network, as well as various firearms such as the flintlock cannon…
However, from the beginning to the end, he had never signed in for anything that could allow him to laze around and enjoy his life.
I've worked hard all my life in my previous life. Can't I enjoy myself in this life?
Zhu Gaoyan had a bitter look on his face.
Suddenly, an afterimage flashed past.
The person was wearing a snake scale one-piece suit that wrapped around his body.
But even so, it still gave people a visual impact and beauty.
"This subordinate, Startling Salamander, greets Master."
The Startling Salamander knelt in front of Zhu Gaoyan, showing no emotion under its silver mask.
"What is it?"
"Master, we found the remnants of Jianwen Emperor in Yingtian Prefecture. They want to assassinate the emperor.”
Zhu Gaoyan's tender face revealed a harmless smile.
He didn't expect it to really come.
"I know! Leave and make arrangements!"
"Today is a good day for the old master's triumphant return. Don't ruin his mood.”
"Be nimble when you deal with it. The Embroidered Uniform Guards are not for nothing!”
"This subordinate will obey."
Startling Salamander cupped his hands and bowed, his figure disappearing from the spot once again.
At this moment, an old butler rushed forward and said anxiously,"Your Highness, His Majesty has returned from the Arutai Tribe in triumph. The Crown Prince invites you to go to the south gate to receive him.”
Zhu Gaoyan smiled and waved his hand.""Alright, alright, I got it!"
"Let Boss go first! I have to prepare a big gift for the old man.”
"When the old man sees this, he will definitely jump up in excitement.”
The old butler was surprised to hear that. What kind of gift could an eight-year-old child give that would make the Emperor jump in joy?
However, since the King of Liang had spoken, he could only reply to the Crown Prince first.
......
Yingtian, at the south gate.
The commoners on the streets knelt on both sides of the street.
From time to time, a mighty army would slowly enter the city.
Zhu Di sat on his horse, looking majestic and heroic.
Second brother Zhu Gaoxu and third brother Zhu Gaosui followed closely behind.
When Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi saw this, he hurriedly tidied his clothes and stepped forward to salute,""Father."
Zhu Di nodded slightly and looked around."Boss, it seems that during the time I was on the expedition, you managed Ying Tian quite well!”
Zhu Gaochi bowed submissively and said,"Father is bringing Second Brother and Third Brother out on an expedition, so how could your son dare to slack off in the rear?”
Zhu Di nodded in admiration. As he looked around, his face revealed some doubt.
"Boss, why isn't Fourth Brother here? Didn't he know that his father had returned from the expedition today?”
Zhu Gaochi heard this and turned his head to look behind him.""Damn! When the fourth brother heard that his father was coming back, he said that he wanted to prepare a big gift for his father to celebrate.”
"He said that father would jump up in joy when he saw it.”
"It should be soon, right?"
"Oh? This little brat is really thoughtful."
"Looks like Father didn't dote on this little brat for nothing!”
Zhu Di's face was filled with a gratified smile.
While the family was enjoying themselves, almost a hundred assassins drew their blades in a corner that no one noticed.
His fierce gaze was filled with cold killing intent.
"For the dead officials of Jingnan, for Emperor Jianwen, kill Zhu Di!”
The assassins 'eyes were filled with determination and decisiveness. At the same time, they approached Zhu Di.
Two hundred steps!
150 steps!
A hundred steps!
Come closer! If they got a little closer, they would be able to kill them and the army wouldn't be able to react in time!
At this moment, the assassins were unprecedentedly nervous.
However, he was also filled with hope!
Clang!
The sharp blades were unsheathed, and the assassins were about to charge forward.
All of a sudden, a thunderous sound rang out from Yingtian City.
Bang bang bang!
Balls of fire instantly streaked across the sky.
This was especially true for the soldiers who had been fighting on the battlefield all year round. They immediately reacted instinctively.
"Protect His Majesty!"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Thousands of soldiers quickly surrounded Zhu Di and the others.
Even the Embroidered Uniform Guards hiding among the peddlers and pedestrians rushed out to protect the Emperor.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Violent explosions rang out continuously.
It was even louder than any of the previous cannons.
When the assassins who were preparing to carry out the assassination saw this, they had no choice but to put away their weapons and retreat to their previous positions.
In the previous ambush, they could still fight with their lives.
At this moment, Zhu Di had tens of thousands of soldiers protecting him.
If he rushed out now, it would be no different from courting death!
For this reason, the assassins could only temporarily give up on this assassination mission.
"Boss, what's going on?”
Zhu Di's face darkened.
From the sound of it, it seemed to be the Red Cannon guarding the gate.
However, an ordinary Red Cannon could not cause such a huge commotion.
At this moment, the only thing Zhu Di could think of was that there was a problem with the arsenal in the Ying Tian Prefecture.
"Father, son…Your son does not know."
Zhu Gaochi ran forward in fear and said anxiously.
"You don't know?"
"Then what country are you supervising!"
Zhu Di scolded angrily.
Just as Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were gloating at their boss, Zhu Gaochi, a figure suddenly appeared not far away.
Zhu Gaoyan waved his little hands and shouted at Zhu Di.
Behind Zhu Gaoyan, three giant cannons with strange shapes were aimed at him.
"Father!"
"Come here, I'll show you a treasure!”
