Although the imperial guards were still afraid of Yuan Chengzong after they heard his words, how could they dare disobey His Majesty's orders? At this time, Li Jinglong had also recovered from the shock of being caught by Yuan Chenghong's hand. He forcefully pulled the steel whip back, and before he could move it, he knew that his strength was not as great as Yuan Chenghong's. Thinking of this, Li Jinglong sent a flying kick towards Yuan Chenghong's lower abdomen.

Li Jinglong himself could not control the steel whip at all, adding the fact that the speed of the steel whip was too fast, he was unable to retract his foot in time, he could only hear the sound of Li Jinglong's foot colliding with the steel whip, causing all the tendons on Li Jinglong's foot to break. Amidst the pain, Li Jinglong's body fell down, and when the imperial guards saw Li Jinglong, they were unable to endure the pain, and they immediately fell down.

The moment Yuan Chengzong saw that Zhu Zhang was going to slip away, he knew in his heart that as long as Zhu Yuan Zhang left this room, it would be extremely difficult for him to catch him.

Zhu Yuanzhang's body flashed and struck towards Zhu Yuanzhang. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Jinglong had almost no way to defend themselves, and when the two saw Yuan Chenghong charging towards them, they only saw Li Jinglong using all his strength to push Zhu Yuanzhang behind him, and Zhu Yuanzhang's body flew out of the door. Yuan Chenghong saw Li Jinglong push Zhu YuanZhang out, and furiously slapped Li Jinglong on the back of his hand, directly striking Li Jinglong out of the door.

Zhu Yuanzhang had just been pushed out of the room by Li Jinglong, when he saw Li Jinglong being slapped out of the room by Yuan Chenghong's palm, causing him to turn around and run in fright. Fortunately, it was much easier to run outside the house than inside the house, and when Yuan Chenghong saw that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to run after him, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang running in the front and Yuan Chenghong chasing after him, followed by a large group of imperial guards chasing after him.

After many years as the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang's body had long since been weaker than it was during the war, and after running for not too long, he began to feel exhausted. Just as Zhu Yuanzhang was getting closer and closer, just as Zhu Yuanzhang was secretly complaining in his heart, he heard a loud shout from behind him, "Scoundrel, don't try to harm His Majesty."

Yuan Chengzong turned around and saw a middle-aged general in his forties holding a long sword and was about to stab at him. This man's long sword was as fast as the wind and the sword light was as fast as rain as it was aimed at the various acupoints on Yuan Chengzong's body. When Yuan Cheng saw that this man was so skilled in sword art, and was not even comparable to Li Jinglong, he immediately gathered all of his Zhen Qi into his palms and started to fight with the middle-aged general.

Yuan Chenghong's palms gradually gained the upper hand, but at this time, the imperial guards had already caught up with him. When the imperial guards saw that the imperial guards had rushed to the back and encircled Yuan Chenghong, Yuan Chenghong was instantly surrounded by hundreds of imperial guards, although these imperial guards were definitely not Yuan Chenghong's match, but in the end, they were still too numerous, so they could not encircle Yuan Chenghong together. Moreover, Zhu Yuanzong was running further and further away from him, while more and more imperial guards were surrounding him.

If this went on, even if he was not killed, he would be exhausted to death, and if he wanted to capture Zhu Yuanzhang now, he would definitely be unable to do so! It would be better for him to flee for his life now, because he could not escape now.

When the middle-aged general saw that Yuan Chengzong had slipped away, he immediately led his imperial guards to chase after him, but the speed of Yuan Chengzong's movements was too fast. In a few steps, he had disappeared without a trace.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already run to the imperial garden, and the imperial garden was heavily guarded. Li Jinglong was also taken away for treatment by the imperial physician, and the middle-aged general ran over to Zhu Yuanzhang, knelt in front of him, and said loudly, "This humble subject has come to ask for your forgiveness, Your Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang was already in a safe zone, and his sorry state had long since disappeared. He had returned to his usual majesty as he smiled at the middle-aged general and said, "Xu Aiqing is on the same level. If it wasn't for her saving me in time, I'm afraid that I would have already encountered an accident."

The middle-aged general's name was Xu Yungong. He was the son of Xu Dazhi, a great general who had seen many battles in the past. He hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, rest assured. This humble subject will protect Your Majesty even if I die."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled as he nodded his head and said, "Your Majesty, please rise!"

Xu Yun said respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has already ordered for the palace gates to be sealed. Your humble subject expects that the culprit will not be able to escape from the palace."

Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Then I'll have to trouble you with that."

Xu Yun hurried to say, "It is this official's duty to serve and serve His Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded his head at the Zhou Mansion of the Phoenix and smiled. Shao Xue Hen was sitting in his room when he saw the young maid run in and said, "Princess, Princess, the prince is back!"

Shao Xue Hen's eyes lit up as he asked, "Where is the Prince now?"

Before he could finish his sentence, Zhu Er walked in with a smile and said, "Esteemed wangfei, don't be anxious. This King is here." As he said that, Zhu Yu walked forward and wrapped his arms around Shao Xue Hen.

Shao Xue Hen laughed and said, "Your highness, you've worked hard all this way. Have your concubine serve your highness in bathing and changing your clothes."

Zhu Ge smiled and said, "Alright, it's rare for a beloved concubine to be willing to bathe This King personally. This King is truly flattered."

Shao Xue smiled and said, "Your highness, what are you saying? It is perfectly justified for your concubine to serve Your highness. As long as Your highness is happy, your concubine can serve Your highness for a bath every day."

After hearing that, Zhu Luo smiled and said, "Is what my beloved concubine said true?"

Shao Xue Hen smiled and said, "Of course I'm serious!" As he said that, he ordered people to boil the bath water and prepare to serve Zhu Rong. Then, he turned his head and asked, "Your highness, you don't know what your concubine has asked you to do."

Zhu Yu did not wait for Shao Xue Hen to finish and laughed: "I knew that my beloved concubine cares more about this matter than about me."

Shao Xue Hen retorted angrily, "Your Highness, where are you talking about? Chenqie was just casually asking."

Zhu Yu smiled, "No worries!" Then he explained the matter of the morning court and Shao Xue Hen. After hearing everything, Shao Xue Hen quickly kneeled on the ground and said to Zhu Xue Hen, "Your servant thanks Your Highness very much."

Zhu Yu smiled and said, "No need to be so courteous, my beloved concubine." He then helped Shao Xue up from the ground. At this time, a servant had already heated up the bath water.
