South Street Cloth Shop.

"what?!"

"Who allowed him to make his own decisions?!"

After hearing this, the old man in black robe immediately turned pale and asked dissatisfiedly.

"Your Majesty, this is actually not Fei Qing's fault. Who would have thought that that loser would one day be able to sit on the throne of the great grandson?"

"Even if he was lucky enough to get His Majesty's favor, who would have thought that even a loser could turn into the number one talent in Kyoto, and even now he is about to be called the number one talent in the Ming Dynasty?!"

"Originally, everyone thought that him as the great-grandson would be more secure than Zhu Yunwen as the great-grandson, and would be easier in the future. But now, he seems to be more difficult to deal with than Zhu Yunwen!"

"Perhaps it is because of this that Fei Qing had to make such a choice. Everything is for the prince."

One of them sighed and said earnestly, his face full of helplessness.

His name is Wei An, the shopkeeper of this cloth shop, and he has been lurking in Kyoto for eight years.

"Even so, how can you collude with the party to act against the party?!"

"If things come true in the future, just this one thing can ruin the prince's reputation. It's just stupid!"

The old man in black robe had a sullen face and said angrily.

After listening to the words of the old man in black robe, the other three looked at each other and fell into silence. No one dared to say anything anymore.

As spies lurking in Kyoto, in order to better hide their whereabouts, they all work in groups. They usually have no contact and do not interfere with each other. Although he and Fei Qing are aware of each other's existence, they have been hiding in Kyoto for so many years. , but never met face to face.

"Immediately send a message to Peiping to report Fei Qing's collusion with the party to the prince truthfully!"

The old man in black robe had a sullen face, and after hesitating for a moment, he said coldly.

"Yes!"

Wei An hurriedly bowed his hands and agreed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, what should we do next? How long will you stay in Kyoto?"

Wei An saw that the old man in black robe fell into silence. After a pause, he asked cautiously.

"Until the cause of Fei Qing's death is found out, I will remain in Kyoto."

"Although he secretly conspired with the rebels and committed a capital crime, he is still from our northern border. We must not let the murderer rest easy!"

"People in the north are not lambs to be slaughtered at will!"

The old man in black robe snorted coldly and said word by word. As he spoke, murderous intent instantly filled his eyebrows.

"What your Majesty said is true, but this matter is too strange. At first, I thought it was Fei Qing who had not reached an agreement with the rebels and was killed by the rebels. But soon I heard that Fei Qing was killed by the traitors. They have been wiped out by the Jinwu Guards a long time ago!"

"There is no trace of who actually did it!"

Wei An frowned and murmured to himself.

"It can't be a rebel!"

"Since they are still lurking in Kyoto, they must have some purpose. They will not cause trouble and offend our people in the north!"

"In my opinion, this matter is probably related to him!"

The old man in black robe narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Who?!"

Wei An was stunned for a moment, then asked in confusion.

"Zhu Yunxi!"

The old man in black robe blurted out without thinking.

"It's really him?!"

"But Jin Wuwei found no trace of any contact between Fei Qing and the traitor. How could he be involved in this matter?"

"Fei Qing has been hiding in Kyoto for ten years. How did he know Fei Qing's identity?! Besides, even if he knew that Fei Qing was from our northern border, why would he take action? Isn't he afraid of offending the prince? ?”

"Now that he has taken the position of grandson, the first one in Jinxiu Palace will not sit still and wait for death. It is Jinxiu Palace that he should be wary of now, right?"

Wei An looked puzzled and said slowly.

"Humph, these days, rumors about him have spread to the north. On my way to Kyoto, I could hear stories about him almost everywhere. This man's rise overnight is definitely not accidental!"

"Besides, he has always acted without any rules. Who knows what he is thinking?!"

The old man in black robe snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

"Does your Majesty mean to kill him personally?"

Wei An hesitated and asked tentatively.

"Let's find out the matter first. As for whether to take action, it depends on the prince's wishes."

"Find a way to contact informants from all over Kyoto and do our best to track down the murder of Fei Qing. If you have any clues, report them to me in a timely manner!"

"After so many years of lurking, it's time to really play your role!"

The old man in black robe frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said coldly.

"Yes!"

Wei An agreed, slowly exited the wing with his two men, and immediately made an exception and secretly contacted other informants in the city overnight.

The city of Kyoto, which had been peaceful for a month, was once again covered by dark clouds!

...

Minghe Hall.

"Your Majesty, you'd better rest for a while. If you keep looking at it like this, your eyes will be damaged."

Wang Defa respectfully placed a cup of hot tea in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and boldly reminded him, his face full of concern.

With Zhu Yunxi's recent announcement that "The Chronicles of the Ming Dynasty" will not end here, and chapters will be updated every day, people in the entire city of Kyoto are rushing to read it, fearing that they will have nothing to talk about with others after dinner.

Among them, Zhu Yuanzhang was included. Although he would not go to the streets and alleys to talk to people about the anecdotes in the book, he had already been attracted by the stories in the book and almost forgot to sleep and eat. It became his best pastime after worrying about state affairs.

"Yunxi is a great talent. This book makes me want to put it down!"

"It's just that the frequency of updates is really slow."

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the book in his hand, rubbed his Qingming point, and said helplessly.

Today is different from the past. Since the subsequent story of Zhu Yunxi is really updated every day, even Zhu Yuanzhang cannot see the subsequent content before others.

"I heard that His Majesty the Grand Sun has hardly gone anywhere these days. He has been hiding in the Wandering Palace all day long, thinking hard about updating the follow-up chapters. Like His Majesty, he has also been forgetting to sleep and eat."

Wang Defa smiled and said slowly.

"Do you think he doesn't want to go out? He doesn't dare to go out. I heard that even the court officials are urging him to update quickly. Is this happening?"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing and asked.

"Yes, not only that, in order to seek renewal, almost all the courtiers spent a lot of money and chased them to the Liuli Palace with generous gifts. However, they were all blocked by His Highness Taisun, and they were all rejected."

"I also heard that outside Hongwu Bookstore, there are people squatting at the front and back doors almost all day long, rushing to wait for new chapters to be delivered to the bookstore."

Wang Defa nodded and replied slowly, with an uncontrollable happy smile on his face, as if he was even happier than he was getting the reward.

"Yes, Not Bad!"

"I really didn't expect that one day he would actually become a popular person. Don't those courtiers look down on him?"

"What about now? Don't you have to be fawning when you need it?"

"I was not wrong about him! This boy does have some talents that ordinary people cannot reach!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled brightly and couldn't help but praise.

"What your Majesty is saying is that we are truly lucky to have such a rising star in the literary world of our country, His Royal Highness. Congratulations, Your Majesty."

Wang Defa nodded affirmatively and echoed.

"You are the only one who can say it! Just pick what I like to hear! Old man!"

"Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for a few days. I told him to come to Minghe Hall to talk to me."

"But remember, you must bring today's updated chapters with you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and scolded Wang Defa, and said slowly.

Wang Defa agreed respectfully, left quickly with a smile, and went to the Liuli Palace in person.

...

Wandering Palace.

"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"

After Wang Defa came to Liuli Palace, the person who greeted him was Liuli instead of Zi Ning in the past.

Because Zi Ning's business has been relatively busy recently, she also left the reception and delivery to Liuli. Now she has become a real personal maid who is fully responsible for Zhu Yunxi's food and daily life.

"My name is Liuli. I just arrived at the Liang Palace not long ago, so it's normal that my father-in-law doesn't recognize her."

Liuli bowed respectfully, lowered her head, and answered carefully.

"Oh, that's how it is."

"Where is His Majesty? His Majesty has a decree to summon him to Minghe Hall."

Wang Defa looked Liuli up and down and said hesitantly. A strange look flashed in his eyes, as if he understood something instantly.

A month ago, the news that Zhu Yunxi brought a dancing prostitute back to the palace from the Jiaofang Division spread throughout Kyoto, so when Liuli finished speaking, Wang Defa already knew it.

"His Royal Highness is drafting chapters of "The Great Ming Dynasty" in the study room in the backyard."

Liuli replied respectfully.

"In that case, please ask the girl to lead the way."

Wang Defa smiled and raised his hand to signal.

Liuli agreed and immediately led the way.

Wang Defa followed behind, his eyes looking up and down all the time, with a hint of strangeness between his brows, and he didn't know what he was thinking...
