Li Shanchang's poems are clearly scolding Zhu Yuanzhang for being like Qin Shihuang who burns books and pits Confucian scholars, and that Daming will perish. Zhu Biao asked him to report this matter to his father, because he couldn't hide it. This matter finally made Zhu Yuanzhang make up his mind to kill these heroes. In the past, when his brother was given to death, he no longer cared about the etiquette of any monarch and ministers, and directly called Zhu Yuanzhang by his name, and scolded him. Tang Shengzong, Lu Zhongheng, Zheng Yuchun, Fei Ju, Lu Ju, Zhao Yong, Huang Bin and others have all been executed by the whole family, and today it is Li Shanchang's turn. Zhu Yuanzhang asked the prince Zhu Biao to send Li Shanchang off for him.

Li Shanchang directly called Zhu Yuanzhang's name in prison. Zhu Biao reluctantly asked him why he was doing this. Zhu Biao ordered him to commit suicide according to the law, but Zhu Biao stayed behind for his consort Li Qi and Princess Lin'an and their children. Zhu Yuanzhang did not blame Zhu Biao for making an assertion, and asked them to move to Jiangpu and order them to take care of them. Zhu Biaoha wanted to ask for another decree, and Zhu Yuanzhang knew that what he wanted to ask was the imperial decree to forgive Lan Yu, and he also knew that Zhu Biao did it for Zhu Di. When Zhu Di in the temple heard about this, he was so angry that he would go to the emperor tomorrow.

Zhu Di was extremely aggrieved. He entered Mobei alone to clean up Mobei for his father and elder brother. What's wrong with him? Although he was a wise man, wouldn't Lan Yu also be serious about the misunderstanding? He persuaded Naier to surrender without spending 20,000 soldiers and horses, but what he received was an imperial edict to let his father and emperor let him return to Beijing. Enduring the sadness surging in his heart, Zhu Di quickly left after saying these words. Zhu Yuanzhang was helpless. He also knew that it was time for Zhu Di to return to Peiping, but he was a little reluctant in his heart. When Zhu Biao heard these words from his father, he was full of grief.

The left-behind secretary in Beijing reported that Zhu Di had already left Beijing. The old Zhu Yuanzhang remembered when Zhu Di first got married. After all, he was still in Nanjing at that time, and it was not difficult to meet him. Now he is back in Peiping. I really want to keep these sons for a few days and take a look at them more. Zhu Yuanzhang agreed to Zhu Biao's proposal and prepared to draw up an edict to let Zhu Di and Lao Twelve and others control the soldiers along the border. Lanyu thanked the prince for asking His Majesty to pardon him, and the reason why the prince helped him was because he was Xiongying's uncle, and Chang's mother-in-law.

When Lu Shangshu passed away, he left a list, asking his family not to ask for mercy. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the Ministry of Industry to manage the coffin and give it a burial in the south of Zhongshan. Zhu Biao chartered Mrs. Chang to take Zhu Yunwen to the Lu Mansion to offer condolences. Mrs. Chang asked Zhu Yunwen to salute four of her father's proud disciples. She taught Tie Xuan, Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and Lian Zining, and hoped that they would continue to serve the army wholeheartedly in the future. Lan Yu's new errand has been set, and Liang Guogong will temporarily take charge of the affairs of the Central Military Governor's Mansion. Zhu Gaojiu took Zhu Gaojiu out to play, and Zhu Gaochi helped them hide it. If the palace servants hadn't told Miaoyun, they would have been deceived by their three brothers. Even if Miaoyun protected her son, she had to whip Zhu Gaojiu so that he could remember the big mistake he made this time.

Hearing about this, Zhu Di rushed back to Prince Yan's mansion. He was going to ask him why he was so harsh to Zhu Gaojiu, but was instead questioned by Miaoyun why he always ignored Zhu Gaochi, who was clearly the heir of Prince Yan's mansion. When news came from the Duke of Wei's mansion that Lord Lu had passed away, Miaoyun told Ma He to thank those people in his palace, and at the same time let the Duke of Wei's mansion spread the news faster in the future. The rest of the princes were also sealed as kings one by one, and the military power in the hands of Zhu Di and others was almost divided. Xia Yuanji suggested that Zhu Di set an example on the memorial table, and Daoyan said with emotion that with this memorial table, His Majesty and the Prince would definitely appreciate him greatly.
