Chapter 105 Nightmare
Zhu Ye specially picked up a lamp and added an oil lamp, for fear that Zhu Yuanzhang would get tired of his eyes when he read the memorial at night.
Because there has been nothing serious recently, the grandfather and grandson talked and laughed and quickly finished the memorial.
After reviewing the memorial, Zhu Yuanzhang yawned, looked at Zhu Ye fiddling with orange peels on the side, and said with concern: "You might as well go to bed."
"I'll hang these orange peels and go, grandpa, let's go to bed first."
After Zhu Ye finished speaking, he took the packed orange peel out of the door. Before leaving, he did not forget to blew out the lights in Zhu Yuanzhang's house.
Because Zhu Ye asked someone to rest assured that the firewood-burning kang was built, it was particularly comfortable to sleep on the hot kang in the spring weather.
Zhu Yuanzhang relaxed rarely and fell asleep quickly.
Just as he was sleeping well, Zhu Yuanzhang vaguely felt that someone had walked in. He thought it was Zhu Ye and asked, "Stupid brat, it's dawn if he doesn't sleep."
The visitor did not answer Zhu Yuanzhang, but walked slowly towards Zhu Yuanzhang's bed.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt something was wrong and immediately stood up, but his body seemed to be pressed down, and he was weak and unable to move.
Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked, but no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get up.
"Jiang Yan!"
Thinking of Jiang Yan guarding outside the door, Zhu Yuanzhang shouted desperately.
But no one answered, and Zhu Yuanzhang became even more panicked.
In the past, Jiang Yan always guarded himself, but now no one answered his voice with such a loud voice...
Could it be...they have...
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't dare to think about it carefully, and the cold sweat dripped from his forehead. Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized that the one on his face was not sweat, but blood.
At this moment, the person with a face covering in the room had already put the long knife in his hand on Zhu Yuanzhang's neck.
"Your death is here, Zhu Yuanzhang."
The person who came was cold and lingering around Zhu Yuanzhang like a poisonous snake.
"Who are you?"
Zhu Yuanzhang forced himself to calm down and wanted to see the person's face clearly.
"Who do you say I am...hahaha..." The visitor laughed wildly, continued to look at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "I am the one who came to kill your life!"
The masked man sneered and approached, reached out and handed Zhu Yuanzhang a peeled orange and said, "Eat it."
Zhu Yuanzhang refused to open his mouth, but turned his head to avoid the oranges that the man fed to his mouth.
“Don’t eat?
Well, since you don’t eat it, give the throne to me.”
After the masked man laughed, he raised the long sword in his hand and slashed it at Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Random..." Zhu Yuanzhang was so anxious that he shouted coldly, then opened his eyes and found that there was someone in the room, it was just a dream he had.
"emperor."
Jiang Yan was the first to rush into the house when he heard the sound and looked around vigilantly.
After discovering that there was no one, Jiang Yan took the long blade in his hand back to his waist: "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who was sweating profusely, Jiang Yan asked anxiously.
"grandfather."
At this time, Zhu Ye also broke in and heard Zhu Yuanzhang's voice. He thought something had happened.
After entering the house, I found that there was nothing unusual in the house except Jiang Yan and Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Nothing happened... I just had a dream."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, but he was still scared.
"It's fine."
Zhu Ye poured Zhu Yuanzhang a cup of tea, and then he realized that his grandfather was sweating all over his head.
"Go back and sleep."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the worried Zhu Ye, took the tea from Zhu Ye's hand, and waved.
Zhu Ye wanted to say something, but he was stunned when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, not knowing what he was thinking.
He opened his mouth but gave up. He could only look at Jiang Yan: "Brother Jiang, call me if you have something to do."
"Don't worry, uncle, I'm here."
Jiang Yan nodded and signaled Zhu Ye to rest assured.
Zhu Ye still looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with some concern. Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang had already lie back, he stopped talking and turned around and walked out slowly.
Seeing Zhu Ye leave, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer had the intention to sleep again.
After tossing and turning, Zhu Yuanzhang still sat up and put on his clothes.
The more Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, the more he felt that he would not have such a dream for no reason. There must be some signs that he dreamed of being assassinated.
When Zhu Yuanzhang recalled the person in his dream, he felt very familiar.
"Who is it?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said to himself.
Close your eyes and think about it carefully, a trace of inspiration flashed through Zhu Yuanzhang's mind: "Zhu Di!"
Thinking of the fourth prince Zhu Di, who was far away in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes slightly, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.
Isn't that the person in my dream is actually his fourth son Zhu Di.
No wonder he felt particularly familiar.
"Return to the palace."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought of the uneasy person he had placed in the Northern Yuan Dynasty and couldn't sit still.
After informing Ma Sanbao who was vigilant, Zhu Yuanzhang took Jiang Yan out and returned to the palace.
Along the way, Zhu Yuanzhang was uneasy. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Zhu Di was very likely to rebel and kill him.
Because Zhu Di was raised by Zhu Biao since childhood, his respect and admiration for Zhu Biao is greater than his feelings for his father.
When Prince Zhu Biao was alive, Zhu Di did not dare to act rashly, nor would he disobey Zhu Biao.
Even after he sent Zhu Di to the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Di remained peaceful and had no movement, so that Zhu Yuanzhang relaxed his vigilance.
However, because of Zhu Biao's death, he was happy because of Zhu Ye's loss and gain, and he forgot about Zhu Di's existence.
Without Zhu Biao... With Zhu Di's personality, no brother would be allowed to rise to power, let alone Zhu Biao's child. Even if Zhu Ye was Zhu Biao's legitimate son, he would probably not convince Zhu Di.
"No, we can't sit still and wait for death."
When Zhu Yuanzhang walked to the gate of his bedroom, he suddenly stopped and suddenly said something.
"emperor?"
Jiang Yin didn't understand what Zhu Yuanzhang meant, and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who was walking in front of him with confusion.
"Jiang Yan, pass on my order and immediately ask King Yan Zhu Di to set off immediately and come to see him."
Zhu Yuanzhang has never been a passive person. Once the seeds of doubt are planted, he will not wait for such seeds to take root and sprout.
So instead of making random guesses and thinking, it is better to bring Zhu Di directly to the imperial city.
He could not do anything to Zhu Di when he was far away, but when Zhu Di came to the imperial city, he didn't believe that Zhu Di could still make a big splash.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang certainly would not have sentenced Zhu Di to death because of a dream.
But he still wants to bring Zhu Di into the imperial city and test it. If Zhu Di really has rebellion or is disloyal, then...
