Several days later, in Yuzhou at the imperial courier station.
"Your Highness, in just a few more days, we will arrive at the capital city. The matter this time has been dealt with by this humble servant and the Marquis of Shen. We'll need your favor with Noble Consort Wan..."
Cao Zhengchun's eyes gleamed with deference as he spoke with a smile, giving Zhu Youji a meaningful glance.
He believed that with Zhu Youji's status and insight, he would understand the implications behind his words.
In fact, discussions about Zhu Youji had taken place between Cao Zhengchun and Wei Zhongxian several years ago.
Should they support Zhu Youji's rise, or should they support the Second Prince Zhu Youtang, who was acclaimed as the military deity of the Ming Dynasty?
Ultimately, they chose Zhu Youji.
A mediocre prince aligned with Noble Consort Wan better served their interests.
Supporting Zhu Youtang would lead to what?
Is the imperial army entering the capital city?
