The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 384 Xu Da's Gift

After finishing her meal, Zhu Xiong Ying hurriedly left the place.

"Grandpa, Grandma, Father, I have other more important things to do, so I'll be leaving now!"

After saying that, he left the place in a flash.

Empress Ma was somewhat angry when she saw Zhu Xiong Ying leave the place directly. She then looked at Zhu Yuan Zhang and Crown Prince Zhu Biao.

"Look at how you two usually raise children! Now you've just left this place. No matter what, you absolutely must not forget what we said!"

"He's not young anymore, so he has to find a way to get this done for me no matter what!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and the Crown Prince nodded frantically, daring not to slacken their orders to Empress Ma.

After returning from inside, Zhu Xiong Ying rested for a while.

They headed towards the direction of the Duke of Wei's mansion.

At this time, Duke Xu Da of Wei was living a very comfortable life at home. He had handed over most of his affairs to his son, Xu Yungong. Xu Yungong was quite capable, and although he had not yet inherited his position, he was doing very well in the army.

In addition, Xu Zengshou's progress was also visible to him.

The eldest daughter married Zhu Di, the Prince of Yan.

He had watched his son-in-law grow up since he was a child, and the two of them lived a pretty good life. There was nothing in the entire Duke of Wei's mansion that he needed to worry about.

Perhaps it was the leisurely life he had been living during this period that made his health much better than before.

Apart from feeling tired and unable to walk properly for a period of time each day, there are no major problems.

Xu Da looked at Zhu Xiong Ying in front of him and said with a smile.

"It's U.A.! Please have a seat!"

"I heard you wiped out the Liang King's gang on the southwestern frontier, is that true?"

After hearing these words, Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded.

"Rest assured, Duke of Wei, this matter is indeed true. In addition, we have also given up the King of Liang in the southwest. The situation in the southwest has now been almost pacified!"

Xu Da was overjoyed upon seeing this and said with a smile.

"Good, good, good! I didn't expect you to have accomplished so much at such a young age. You are much better than me!"

"Back then, Liang King Bazalawarmi, Qi King Kökö Temür, and Grand Commandant Nairbuqa were all pillars of the Northern Yuan, holding significant military power!"

"Now that you have captured all three of them, it is truly a blessing for our Great Ming Dynasty!"

"With you here, His Majesty and our group of old brothers will feel very reassured!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded after hearing this.

"Please rest assured, Duke of Wei, with us here, we will certainly not allow the foundation you have worked so hard to build to be damaged!"

"Moreover, in the future we will conquer other places, just like the Yuan Dynasty, and subjugate all the lands in the west, so that everyone will know the name of the Great Ming and speak the language of the Great Ming!"

Xu Da nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. Even they had never imagined such a day, but it was possible for their descendants to accomplish such a thing, which naturally made him very happy.

My decision to have Xu Zengshou follow Zhu Xiong Ying was indeed the right one.

After thinking of this place, he looked at Zhu Xiong Ying in front of him and said with a smile.

"It's good that you think that way. With you here, you will surely be able to carry on His Majesty's and the Crown Prince's ambitions!"

"Speaking of which, your fourth uncle has been studying military strategy with me for some time now, and he is indeed a promising talent for warfare. I have now passed on all my military strategies to him!" "Li Wenzhong is about to go to the Northwest, and I believe he will be of great use in the battle there!"

Just then, a woman suddenly rushed in, looking very anxious.

Zhu Xiong Ying looked in one direction, frowned, and saw that the woman was extremely beautiful. Even Zhu Xiong Ying was momentarily captivated by her beauty.

Xu Da frowned as he looked at Zhu Xiong Ying's expression, and after Zhu coughed twice, he spoke.

"This is my daughter, Miaojin!"

"Miaojin, what kind of behavior is this, having such an important person here!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Miaojin realized that she had been somewhat abrupt and looked at Zhu Xiong Ying with a face full of apology.

"Please forgive me, Your Highness. I am the only one managing the entire Wei State Duke's mansion. However, I am still young and there are many things I have not done well. I hope Your Highness will forgive me if there are any mistakes!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and shook his head after hearing this.

"The children of the Duke of Wei's family are naturally all good. No one is born with knowledge; everyone needs to learn. I believe that in the future, you will definitely not be inferior to the Princess Consort of Yan!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Miaojin felt a little shy and turned to leave.

After Xu Miaojin left, Xu Da quickly changed the subject.

"I heard that when you were in Yingtianfu, you were ambushed at the city gate?"

Has the murderer been caught?

Zhu Xiong Ying shook his head after hearing this.

"Not yet, but those people must be of extraordinary status. To be able to use the powerful crossbow in their hearts, they are definitely not ordinary people!"

"This matter will absolutely not be left like this. The Court of Judicial Review, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Ministry of Justice, and the Western Depot are all investigating this matter. We'll have the results soon!"

Xu Da frowned upon hearing this, then gave Zhu Xiong Ying a deep look before finally sighing and speaking.

"It would be great if we could find these people. How dare they attempt an assassination in the capital! They are truly despicable!"

"Speaking of which, I do have some connections in the military. Let's get them to help out this time!"

Just then, Xu Da pulled out a token from his pocket as if by magic, wiped it, and his eyes were full of emotion.

"This thing has been with me for many years, and it can be considered a token of my identity. I originally planned to take it with me to the underworld, but now it seems that I don't need to!"

He then handed the token in his hand to His Highness Zhu Xiong Ying, saying that it would be entrusted to His Highness from now on.

Zhu Xiong Ying looked at the token in Xu Da's hand with great surprise.

This token represents Xu Da's order. Xu Da has been a general for many years, and many generals in the army are under his command.

This is the foundation of his Wei State Duke's mansion.

Looking at this thing, Zhu Xiong Ying said with a puzzled expression.

Why give this to me?

"This represents the foundation of your Xu family. Entrusting him to Yun Gong might solidify his power in the military, and it's not impossible for him to become a military giant in the future!"

Zhu Xiong Ying's words were not exaggerated in the slightest; it is important to know that Xu Da's power was absolutely formidable.
