The reason why Zhu Di asked this was because Yang Pu had unintentionally said something that day, which gave him a very deep impression.
"Could the word 'Yan' written on the broken flag refer to someone's name?”
When Zhu Di heard this, the first person he thought of was Zhu Gaoyan.
However, at that time, he only treated it as a coincidence.
After all, Zhu Gaoyan was only eight years old. Compared to the mysterious force that wiped out an army of 100,000 in an instant, the difference was too great.
However, Zheng He's arrival today made Zhu Di suspicious.
He still remembered what Zheng He had told him when he had just returned from the Western Seas.
Zhu Gaoyan had given Zheng He three items that would be of great help to his sailing.
Even Zhu Di was shocked by those items.
An impregnable compass, a medicine with miraculous effects, and that terrifying world map…
Were these really things that an eight-year-old child could take out?
Later on, Zhu Gaoyan pretended to be him to deal with the disputes in Adan.
Being orderly, distinguishing right from wrong, and punishing appropriately were actions that only a mature king could do.
Everything made Zhu Di suspicious.
His most beloved son was also hiding something behind his back!
At the center of the hall.
Sun Ruowei sat on the chair and suddenly felt a chill down her spine from Zhu Di's gaze.
"Emperor, I don't understand what you mean.”
Zhu Di looked into Sun Ruowei's eyes and said in a deep voice,""You really don't know?"
The Emperor's gaze made Sun Ruowei extremely nervous.
She was a smart woman.
Although he didn't know much about the Zhu family, he could tell that Zhu Di didn't know about the Frightening Salamander in Zhu Gaoyan's hands.
As a smart person, Sun Ruowei knew that when facing someone she couldn't fight, the best defense was to play dumb.
Sun Ruowei shook her head." I've only met him a few times.”
"If he hadn't brought me to the garden party, I wouldn't even know that he was the King of Liang.”
At the end, Sun Ruowei laughed.
Most of these words were her real experiences.
Therefore, when he said it, his expression was sincere and there was no trace of unnatural.
Seeing Sun Ruowei's natural expression, Zhu Di nodded and didn't ask further.
However, this did not dispel the doubts in his heart.
Maybe Sun Ruowei just didn't know, but it didn't mean that she didn't.
......
At dusk.
The streets of Yingtian Prefecture did not become gloomy because of the arrival of night. Instead, they became even more lively, like a city that never sleeps.
In the prosperous area of Changle Street in the east of the city, a luxurious restaurant stood tall.
The restaurant's decor was extremely exquisite. There was a jade lion, a purple gold plaque, and a glass lamp. Every part of the restaurant was filled with a luxurious aura. Inside the building, the fragrance of wine filled the air, and birds sang and swallows danced. It was as if heaven and earth were on earth, making people intoxicated.
On the purple gold plaque in front of the restaurant, there were three bold and powerful words.
Violet Orchid Pavilion!
" So this is the Purple Orchid Pavilion."
"Tsk tsk, look at this decoration. It's really magnificent.”
"So this is Ying Tian's biggest restaurant, Flying Phoenix Restaurant.”
"I heard that a mysterious woman bought it for 400,000 taels of gold a few days ago and transformed it into the current Purple Orchid Pavilion.”
"Obediently, 400,000 taels of silver! It can be piled up into a silver mountain, right?"
"Isn't that so? It's said that the woman is from the Western Regions, and her name is Purple Woman.”
"In the Western Regions, she is a famous goddess, attracting the attention of countless young masters of aristocratic families, just to see Violet Maiden from afar.”
"What do you mean? This woman isn't a courtesan?”
"You're crazy! He couldn't say such words carelessly. He would lose his head!”
"This Purple Orchid Pavilion is not a place for women. It can only be considered a luxurious wine shop.”
"Of course, its main function is still its world-famous intelligence ability!”
"It is said that there is no information in the world that Zi Lanxuan cannot obtain. As long as you are willing to pay the price, you can even know the daily life of the emperor's concubines!”
"Hiss! This is torture!"
"Zi Lanxuan is already famous in the Western Regions. I'm afraid it will cause another commotion in the capital this time.”
"Look, that's the young master of the Zhang Clan, the young master of the Li Clan, and the young master of the Song Clan!"
“......”
One after another, luxurious palanquins stopped at the entrance of Purple Orchid Pavilion, causing a lot of discussion.
Among the many guests, there was one who was rather special.
He was wearing a purple brocade robe and a black tiger mask. He stood tall and straight, and he walked with a majestic gait.
Such a strange outfit naturally attracted the attention of many people.
However, as he walked, it was as if countless swords were floating around him.
It was so intimidating that it didn't dare to get close and automatically made way for him.
......
At this moment, on the top floor of Purple Orchid Pavilion.
In a luxurious private room made entirely of gold.
Zhu Gaoyan lay sideways.
There were ten beautiful maids around him. Some massaged his legs, some massaged his shoulders, some fanned him, and some massaged him.
The Purple Maiden half-squatted beside Zhu Gaoyan, reached out her slender hand, took a grape, peeled it, and gently put it into Zhu Gaoyan's mouth.
Violet Maiden smiled sweetly and asked softly,""Master, are you satisfied with this place?"
"Mm. You're so thoughtful."
Zhu Gaoyan looked satisfied as he chewed on the sweet and sour fruit.
Violet Maiden's pretty face flushed red, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a bashful smirk.
This was the room she had specially built for Zhu Gaoyan. It was not open to anyone except Zhu Gaoyan.
All the facilities in this room were also the most luxurious and best.
It was even comparable to the main hall of the imperial palace.
To Violet Maiden, what she lacked was never money, but a person who was willing to let her spend money.
Being able to stay by Zhu Gaoyan's side was her greatest satisfaction.
"Dang dang dang"
There was a gentle knock on the door and the voice of a maid came from outside.
"Young miss, they're here."
Zhu Gaoyan raised his eyebrows. You're quite punctual."
On the table in front of him was an intelligence report.
This was transmitted back from Shuntian by the Black White Profound Jian.
A few days ago, Zhu Gaoyan had ordered Xuan Jian to go to Shuntian to investigate the secret family that Zhu Di had saved back then. Now, there were results.
Violet Maiden picked up the report and sighed.""The Ancient Darknorth Clan is one of the most ancient and mysterious clans in the Central Plains.”
"Rumor has it that the Ancient Darknorth clan will face a calamity once every thousand years. The saintesses and holy sons of the clan will experience premature aging, and only dragon blood can save their lives.”
"This generation's Holy Maiden of the Northern Dark Ancient Race is known as the number one genius of the Northern Dark Race in a thousand years, Bei Minxue.”
"Looks like the person that the old master saved back then was this little girl."
Zhu Gaoyan narrowed his eyes as if he didn't care about this. He just asked casually,""Who is the person who came this time?"
Violet Girl tapped her snow-white chin with her index finger and said faintly,""The Beiming clan hasn't appeared for a thousand years. Only the previous generation's holy son, Beiming Xuanyi, isn't in the clan.”
Zhu Gaoyan nodded.
Beiming Xuanyi should be the purple-robed man described by the Startling Salamander.
The power that Beiming Xuanyi had cultivated had the ability to avoid detection, which showed how extraordinary it was.
However, Zhu Gaoyan did not take it to heart.
Escaping was one thing, but fighting was another. There were many Sky experts in the net, and the Startling Salamander was not the only one.
Besides, Zhu Gaoyan still had other forces that hadn't attacked yet.
"Violet Maiden, go and meet him."
"Yes." Violet Maiden nodded gently.
She turned around, put on her veil, and walked out of the room.
............
Kneel and beg for self-ordering!
