Chapter 43: Responding to Heaven

Qian Ren was ready, and Zhu Yunwen had already ordered the guards to call the An family in advance.

Not long after, Xiao Leizi came back, and He Ji and the An family came with him. It seemed that the An family and Xiao Leizi met on the way.

He Ji said to Zhu Yunwen: "Your Highness, Lord Cao has left first. He sent a hundred soldiers to protect His Highness from his safety and escort Qin Yuan by the way."

Zhu Yunwen asked, "Where is Qin Yuan?"

He Ji said: "Just outside the Qian family, when will Your Highness leave?"

Zhu Yunwen looked at everyone, and they were all waiting for Zhu Yunwen's reply. Zhu Yunwen pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go now." After that, Zhu Yunwen saluted Qian Ren solemnly and said, "Mr. Qian raised Min'er and Xue'er for so many years, just like his own father. Now that Mr. Qian has handed them over to me, I will not treat them badly. Please rest assured Mr. Qian."

"I believe, I believe. Xiaomin and Xiaoxue, go." Qian Ren was a little excited. There was no difference in identity at this moment. Only a kind middle-aged man solemnly handed over the two daughters of his old friend to a young man who could entrust them to his life. Sister Zhuge walked to Zhu Yunwen with tears in his eyes.

After talking to Qian Ren, he made another preparation. Zhu Yunwen and others had already arrived outside the Qian family, and several carriages were waiting there. Behind the carriage, a hundred soldiers were escorting a prison carriage.

"Dad!" Qin Jing's tears immediately flowed down when she saw Qin Yuan in the prison car, and she was so excited that she wanted to run to Qin Yuan.

Zhu Yunwen didn't let Qin Jing run over with his hand. Shan Feng walked out from behind and hugged Qin Jing. Even her, who had few emotional fluctuations, said a little trembling at this moment: "Daughter, don't go."

Qin Yuan in the prison car saw what happened to Zhu Yunwen, and his expression did not fluctuate at all. He slowly closed his eyes and ignored the situation outside.

Li Shanshan sighed, looked at Zhu Xiuer and said nothing.

Zhu Yunwen sorted out the language and said, "Let's leave now. Deputy General He, you go back to Xi'an and tell Lord Chang Zhen that we will go back to Yingtian directly. Thank you for your hospitality in those days."

He Ji bowed respectfully and said, "Please rest assured that His Highness, He Ji will definitely bring his words."

Zhu Yunwen nodded and clasped his fists at Qian Ren and said, "Master Qian, we are leaving, I hope there will be a time later."

Qian Ren clasped his fists and said, "There is no banquet that will last forever. The road ahead is long. Your Highness, please take care of yourself!"

――――――――――

One and a half months later.

Because of Qin Yuan, Zhu Yunwen and his party were wasting a lot of time on the road. They finally arrived in Yingtian on the fifteenth of February.

On February 15th, Zhu Yunwen recited silently, and his heart felt even more dangerous.

When he arrived at the capital of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yunwen first ordered Xiao Leizi to follow Qin Yuan's soldiers to the prison, and make sure that Qin Yuan can be well in the prison.

Li Shanshan also said goodbye. After all, she is still a girl in her teens. After a few months, she still misses her relatives very much.

As for Qin Jing, Shan Feng and Zhu Yunwen's women, we went back to the palace with him.

Before the carriage arrived at the imperial city, Zhu Yunwen was organizing the language. He asked Zhu Xiuer to arrange for Dan Feng and his daughter to meet Zhu Yuanzhang alone.

After the eunuch passed the news, Zhu Yunwen successfully met Zhu Yuanzhang, which was still in Shangshu Room. But this time when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yunwen felt that he seemed much older.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Yunwen, he did not ask about his situation when he went to Xi'an, but said slowly: "Do you know that your father is seriously ill?"

Although Zhu Yunwen had known it for a long time, his heart was still beaten when he heard the news and said, "Yunwen just responded that Tian came to see the emperor's grandfather, but he didn't know that his father was seriously ill."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't talk about Zhu Biao and asked Zhu Yunwen: "What are the gains in Xi'an this time?"

When Zhu Yunwen heard Zhu Yuanzhang ask about the serious matter, Zhu Yunwen took out a golden arrow from his arms and slowly placed it on the table in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. Then he talked about this incident and mentioned Qin Yuan's incident in particular. When talking about pressing Qin Yuan to Yingtian, Zhu Yuanzhang showed a confused look.

Zhu Yunwen had no choice but to explain: "The emperor's grandfather, Yunwen captured Qin Yuan this time and found that Qin Yuan was involved in more Xi'an officials. So in order to prevent Qin Yuan from being killed in Xi'an, Yunwen took Qin Yuan back to Yingtian, so it would be better to investigate."

After saying that, Zhu Yunwen was still a little nervous. Zhu Yuanzhang killed countless officials in his life. It was not impossible for him to lift all the officials in Xi'an because of Qin Yuan.

To Zhu Yunwen's surprise, Zhu Yuanzhang knocked on the table with his finger and said, "Do you have confidence?"

Zhu Yunwen said confidently: "The emperor's grandfather gave Yunwen time, and Yunwen would definitely be able to uproot the corrupt officials in Xi'an."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a lonely expression: "The one I love most is your father. I also believe in him the most, and he did not disappoint me. But... Yunwen, this matter is fully entrusted to you, and you are taking the golden arrow." He paused and said: "Yunwen, you have been smart since childhood. Although your military ability is insufficient, your ability to govern people is not as good as you. Yunwen, don't let me down."

Zhu Yunwen was shocked. Don’t let me down. This sentence doesn’t disappoint. Even a fool can understand the meaning.
