When the King of Yan was about to contact all the vassal kings to attack Mu Ying, an imperial edict actually appeared at this time. Needless to say, Zhu Yuanzhang saw that the King of Yan was restless and specially invited him to the palace.

"Eunuch Wu, I don't know what happened to my father and I let me enter the palace."

"Your Highness, the servant really doesn't know what's going on."

"Eunuch Wu, is it because I, King Yan, have not enough face..."

Eunuch Wu could clearly feel the murderous aura emitted by the King of Yan, and finally knelt on the ground. Eunuch Wu knew the horror of King of Yan, so he could only bring it truthfully in the end.

"Your Highness, the servant really doesn't know what's going on, but..."

"Just what?"

"I saw Prince Mu kneeling in front of His Majesty..."

"When did it happen?"

"It was not long after Prince Mu came back from His Highness the Crown Prince..."

The King of Yan actually helped Eunuch Wu up and then gave him a huge silver note.

"Eunuch Wu, as long as there is any important news, I will be rewarded."

"Thank you Your Highness, King Yan."

After taking the silver note, Eunuch Wu took a deep breath. His clothes would have been wet with sweat. If he hadn't had some courage, he would have been scared to pee just now.

"Eunuch Wu, you can take the lead. I will follow you when I go to bathe and change my clothes."

"OK."

The King of Yan was just an excuse, after all, he had done something. King of Yan Yao canceled the original plan, and those letters must be destroyed. The next arrangements were different. The King of Yan did this not only for his own safety, but more importantly, it was not to let these vassal kings know about these things, so as not to come and grab the fruits of their victory.

"Father, I don't know what to do if I ask my son to come over?"

"King Yan, you didn't say that Mu Ying had a bad plan. Now he is here. Do you dare to confront him in person?"

"Father, of course I dare."

Zhu Yuanzhang actually threw the sword made by Mu Ying in front of him. The King of Yan was in chaos and had no idea what was going on.

"This is what you said about the wrong intentions. Mu Ying is building a sword for me."

"this……"

King Yan was stunned for a moment and did not expect such a result at all. However, what happened next made him even more confused. After Mu Ying came in, Zhu Yuanzhang actually tried his best to accuse Mu Ying of something wrong.

"Mu Ying, although you have not formed a clique for personal gain, you have violated my order to create weapons privately. This is not to mention that the princes of various vassals have been disarmament because of your relationship. You can confess your guilt."

Mu Ying knelt on the ground and said, "I deserve to die!"

"Mu Ying, it's best if you confess your guilt. Although you have committed a death sentence, you can't die in your filial piety and your past contributions. Death crimes can be spared, but life crimes cannot be escaped. After you handle all military affairs and leave back to Yunzhou, there is no communication between me, neither you nor your troops are allowed to come to the capital."

Zhu Yuanzhang actually gave the secret edict to the King of Yan. Although he said that he wanted King of Yan to supervise Mu Ying well, the King of Yan knew very well that this was a completely transaction, but of course he would not object to such a transaction that was beneficial to King of Yan.

"Mu Ying, do you have any objections?"

"I have no objection..."

"King Yan, where are you?"

"Of course, there is no objection."

"Mu Ying, go down, handle your military affairs quickly and go back to me."

"Thank you for your kindness."

The King of Yan had already achieved his goal and of course he wanted to leave as soon as possible, but Zhu Yuanzhang would make it so easy for him to leave. After a while of nagging, he also warned the King of Yan.

"King of Yan, foreign envoys will come to pay tribute soon. I don't want any problems at this critical moment."

"Father, don't worry, there will be no problem."

"King Yan, all this is fine as you said, otherwise you will only ask."

Of course, the King of Yan would not rebel against Zhu Yuanzhang's intentions. At least he would not cause trouble in a short period of time. In addition to these foreign envoys, the King of Yan had already obtained huge benefits. The King of Yan received that secret edict and had completely broken down the alliance between Mu Ying and the prince. Even if Mu Ying really wanted to help the prince, he would be helpless. Military advisor Yao Guangxiao was also a little surprised. Maybe the Shenwu cannon will be obtained soon. In this situation, the King of Yan would only cause trouble unless he was stupid.

"Uncle Mu, has Grandpa Emperor made things difficult for you?"

"Your Highness, how could the emperor make things difficult for me? He just warned me."

"A warning?"

"Your Highness, you know that I am busy with military affairs, and it is obvious that I am lazy to stay here now."

Although Zhu Yunwen didn't know the real situation, he would never be like Mu Ying said. Something must have happened here.

"Uncle Mu, is King Yan making trouble behind?"

"Your Highness, I'm doing it right, how could anyone make a mistake?"

"this……"

"Your Highness, don't think too much. I need to go back and sort out military affairs. After all, I'm still not so relieved of the batch of weapons you gave me."

"Uncle Mu, are you afraid that it is not powerful enough?"

"Of course this is not the case. I'm afraid that my grandson is too stupid and can't learn it."

Mu Ying finally fooled it. After all, this happened. Mu Ying would leave after refining the sword for the emperor. This was just a few days ahead of time.

"Uncle Mu, what are you planning to set off?"

"Let's go in three days."

Zhu Yunwen didn't expect Mu Ying to leave so soon, so he was really reluctant to let him go. In the end, Zhu Yunwen actually started drinking with Mu Ying. Zhu Yunwen got drunk after drinking.

"Uncle Mu, actually I really don't want to be this prince..."

"Your Highness, you are drunk..."

Zhu Yunwen held the wine glass and shook his head and said, "Uncle Mu, do you know how many people are trying to make me think about it? Whether it is the King of Yan or the dead King of Xiang, they all want me to die."

Mu Ying supported the prince, and for this he asked someone to come and help. Luo Yue happened to be by her side, and she hugged the prince.

"Uncle Mu, if you don't believe me, you can ask Luo Yue. If she hadn't helped her, I would have died at the hands of King Yan."

"Your Highness, there is really such a thing. Does the emperor ignore it?"

"There is no evidence, how can he care about it? Do you want him to kill his son with his own hands?" Luo Yue said unconvincedly.

Mu Ying had nothing to say. He knew very well that he would never be able to kill his son himself. In the end, he could only make it difficult for the kind-hearted Zhu Yunwen. The same is true this time. If Zhu Yunwen knew about this, he would definitely be very sad. Mu Ying kept reminding himself to keep the secret no matter what, otherwise he would waste the emperor's painstaking efforts.
