After Yuan Chengzong turned around and fled from the Imperial City, he fled all the way back to the Yuan Mansion in the south of the river. This time, Yuan Chengzong came to see Zhu Yuanzhang because of Murong Feiyu being captured, Yuan Chengzong originally wanted to ask him to send troops to exterminate Thousand Plum Villa, this was something he and An Shiji had always thought of, but who would have thought that Yuan Chengzong would be a step too slow, it could be said that he had lost a thousand of ancient grudges. At this time, not only did Yuan Chengzong not request for the emperor to hand in hand, but he wanted Zhu Zhang to apprehend him soon.

Yuan Chenghong rushed back to the Southern Yuan Mansion, and just as he returned, he saw Murong Wuyu welcoming him from the inside. Yuan Chenghong was first stunned when he saw Murong Chengyu return, then he immediately thought about the matter of sending Yuan Zun to save Murong Qianyu. Yuan Chenghong thought about it and asked, "Where's Yuan Zun?"

Murong Chengyu replied, "Only one person came back, fourth brother is still at the Thousand Plum Villa."

Yuan Chenzong returned to his room and sat down on a chair, then closed his eyes and stopped speaking. Murong Chengyu saw that Yuan Chenyuan had returned and closed his eyes to rest. Although he said that it wouldn't be convenient for him to ask where his master had gone to, he still couldn't not say anything.

Murong Guiyu said, "Master, are you alright?"

After Yuan Chenzong heard this, he muttered to himself, "Second Brother, Master is asking you, if you were to gather all the troops from the seven provinces of Jiangnan, how many people would you be able to gather?"

Murong Chengyu replied, "The seven provinces of Jiangnan have a total of around forty thousand men and horses. They were previously under the command of the various supreme guards. But now ?"

Yuan Chenzong said coldly, "Could it be that a few of the Grand Protectors are already dead, and there's no one capable enough to succeed their throne?"

Murong Chengyu hurriedly replied, "That's not true, but it's much weaker than when he was led by his brothers."

After Yuan Chengzong heard this, he sighed, "The difference in ability is better than no one. Tell me who it is."

Murong Chengyu said, "Zhejiang Province is the headquarters of our Southern Martial Forest, with nearly seven thousand people under the command of the disciples. Fujian Province was previously led by Seventh Brother Shen Muhua, Seventh Brother after his death was commanded by his disciple Yang Zong Wang, Guangdong Province was previously led by Eighth Sister Sun Xiqian, Eighth Sister after her death by her disciple, Liu Ying Jiang Ziwen was initially commanded by Ninth Brother Jiang Ziwen, Ninth Brother Jiang Zhen was initially led by his son after his death, Guizhou Province was previously led by Eleventh Brother Jiang Zhen, and after his death was led by his daughter.

Yuan Chenzong let out another long sigh and said, "How long will it take to gather all these people?"

After hearing that, Murong Chengyu said anxiously, "Master, what's wrong with you? Did something happen? "Why did you gather everyone in the group?"

Yuan Chengzong shook his head and said, "Forget it, I don't need to hide it from you." Then, Yuan Chengzong told Murong Guanyu about how he had tried to kill Zhu Yuan Zhang in the Imperial Palace.

Cold sweat poured out of Murong Chengyu as he heard this. "Master, how did you get into the palace? Why did you assassinate the emperor? This is a grave crime that involves the execution of nine clans."

Yuan Chengzong angrily said after hearing it, "You think I want to? Isn't it because I was forced to the point where I had no other choice? "

After listening to the conversation, Murong Chengyu asked, "Then, master, do you want to gather the men?"

Yuan Chengzong waited for him to finish and directly said, "That's right, if I want to go up, I'll go back in broad daylight."

Hearing this, Murong Chengyu gave a startled "Ah!" and quickly said, "Master, the people of the Ming court are dozens of times stronger than me. Are we, a mere forty thousand men, going to go against the heavens?"

Yuan Chengzong sneered and said, "Even if the Great Ming Dynasty has more people, it's impossible for them to all stay in Nanjing City, right?"

Hearing this, Murong Wuyu was stunned. "What do you mean, Master?"

Yuan Chengzong said: "Quickly recall Ol 'Three and Ol' Six and gather all the troops together as fast as you can, I want to attack Nanjing City, and at that moment, there are only 30,000 soldiers inside, and our numbers are superior to them. Our troops are all in the martial arts world, and our combat power is much stronger than the soldiers in Nanjing City, and if you capture Zhu Yuan Zhang and the Manchu Dynasty's Wen Wu, wouldn't there be nothing to be afraid of? "Even if the Ming court has millions of troops, how can they stand against me?"

Murong Wuyu asked in a trembling voice, "But Master, the walls of Nanjing City are too tall and too thick. If we can't take them down by then, won't we die without a burial ground when the Duke of Qin's army arrives?"

Yuan Chengzong sneered and said, "It won't be difficult for you to gather all the troops of Zhejiang Province first. We will attack Zhejiang and kill the governor, then even if we can't defeat Nanjing City, we will come back and defend Zhejiang."

Murong Chengyu replied, "Master is here."

Without waiting for Murong Guiyu to finish speaking, Yuan Chenghong loudly said, "I will decide on this matter. Since I have already assassinated Zhu Yuan Zhang, if I don't get caught sooner or later, none of you will be able to escape. It would be better to fight for it!"

Murong Chengyu didn't say anything after he heard this, and only asked, "Master, then will brother participate in this matter?" The 'big brother' that Murong Chengyu was referring to was naturally the Great Gatekeeper of the Thirteen Divisions.

After Yuan Chengzong heard this, he muttered to himself for a while and then said, "When the time comes, I will naturally use him. But right now, your elder brother is not allowed to move."

Hearing that, Murong Chengyu did not say anything else and went down to gather his men.

The next morning, Zhu Yuanzhang sat atop the Dragon Throne in a deep state. The officials and officials did not know why, but after a long while, they heard Zhu Yuanzhang say in a low voice, "Yesterday, I was attacked by an assassin. Do you know what happened?"

The moment he said that, all the civil and military officials kneeled down and spoke in unison, "Your Majesty, Hong Fu, Qi Tian. Failure to protect Your Majesty is the sin of all of us."

Zhu Yuanzhang did not have much of a reaction after hearing all this. He only said faintly, "All of you, get up."

The civil and military officials said in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After the civil and military officials got up, they could hear Zhu Yuanzhang blandly saying, "Yesterday, Zhou Wang mentioned that Yuan Chengzong was a person who had hidden an army and plotted a rebellion. We originally thought that this matter had no evidence, so we couldn't send out troops to exterminate bandits, but who would have thought that Yuan Chengzong would dare to attack us yesterday? This is too audacious! We can order people to exterminate bandits, who wants to go?"
