Chapter 20 Jealousy and Hate

"Brother, as soon as we meet Zhu Xiongying, we will follow what we discussed before."

"It just so happens that all the officials are here. The harder Zhu Xiongying punishes the two of us, the bigger the trouble will be. Tomorrow's Tian'en Banquet will give you and me more excuses. Even if Zhu Xiongying tells the story of the assassination in public,

, and will only regard him as malicious revenge."

Zhu Shangbing said with a smile, looking confident.

This is what happened in court. As long as there is no absolute evidence for something, and some grudges are mixed into it, the matter will become confusing and it will be difficult to determine the truth from the lie.

Moreover, criticism between bloodlines is what Lao Zhu dislikes the most. He will subconsciously interpret things in a misunderstanding.

"Um."

Zhu Yunwen nodded, obviously he also recognized Zhu Shangbing's words.

"His Royal Highness Taisun issued an edict, and King Guangyang and the Crown Prince of Qin received the edict."

Eunuch Xiaobao came outside the mansion and didn't stutter at all when delivering the order.

Even Chang Tianci glanced at the little eunuch a few times, but looking at the little eunuch's slightly red face, it was obvious that he was holding his breath and wanted to finish everything in one breath.

Therefore, as soon as Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Shangbing knelt down, Xiaobao's voice rang out impatiently.

"Your Majesty decrees that the princes of King Guangyang and King Qin will not be disobedient to discipline, and each will be responsible for thirty years, and will be personally punished by the guard general Chang Tian."

"Appreciate this."

After saying this, Eunuch Xiaobao gasped for air, then turned around and returned to the house regardless of everyone's shocked eyes.

Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Shangbing looked at each other in disbelief and shock.

Why did you get hit all of a sudden?

The officials were even more stupid. Didn't they agree to intercede for us? Why did they get beaten first?

Chang Tianci didn't care about this. He had long been unhappy with Zhu Yunwen. Now he has the grandson's decree that if he doesn't fight, he won't fight in vain.

"What are you doing in a daze? Let me, General, hold them down."

After giving the order, the soldiers quickly stepped forward and pressed Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Shangbing, who had not yet reacted, onto the moved bench. Chang Tianci took a big stick and stood between them.

"Always given by God, you dare!"

Zhu Shangbing yelled loudly, saying that he had never been beaten like this in his whole life.

"See if I dare."

Chang Tianci sneered and swung the stick down.

One stick on the left, one stick on the right.

It landed on their butts accurately.

One person's "ah" sound was so scattered that if you weren't watching them being beaten with sticks, you would have had some bad associations with this sound.

"Zhu Xiongying...!"

Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Shangbing were both kicking their feet tightly, with hatred in their eyes.

Although they originally planned to come to Taisun's Mansion to anger Zhu Xiongying and be punished, their psychological expectations were punishments such as being kicked out of Taisun's Mansion and being fined for half a year.

This is definitely not a fight, and it is a fight in front of hundreds of officials. This matter will definitely spread throughout Yingtian Mansion, and the two of them will become the laughing stock of others.

Especially Zhu Yunwen, his hands were clenched into fists and clenched tightly.

At first, he was just envious of Zhu Xiongying, envied that Zhu Xiongying could be favored by thousands of people, and then he was jealous, jealous of why Zhu Xiongying could be canonized as a grandson despite being idle all day long, while he had been ignored in studying hard since he was a child.

At this moment, it has evolved into utter hatred.

'One day, I will trample you under my feet and tell everyone in the world that the master of this Ming Dynasty is me, Zhu Yunwen!'

I just thought about this sentence silently in my heart.

"ah!"

A howl.

Listening to the two kings howling one after another, the officials knelt down and bowed their heads obediently. In contrast, they felt a lot more comfortable. It was better to kneel by yourself than to get slapped. Looking at the posture of the two kings, I'm afraid there was no one.

There will be no peace in the world for three to five days.

On the left and right sides of the street outside Taisun's Mansion, a carriage stopped halfway.

The two carriages turned around in unison and drove away at extremely fast speeds.

In the carriage on the left, the arrogant layman Zhu Gaosui exhaled loudly and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He thought to himself that it was a good thing he didn't see Zhu Xiongying last time, otherwise he might be in trouble this time.

Damn it, is this your grandson?

He is even more arrogant than this king!

In the carriage on the right, the crown prince of Jin Dynasty, Zhu Jixi, frowned, then relaxed, and then showed a disdainful smile.

"The more absurd this Zhu Xiongying is, the more beneficial it is to my father and me. I have to write another letter to my father. After the Tian'en Banquet tomorrow, I have to find a reason to stay in Yingtian."

at the same time.

In the alchemy room in Taisun's mansion, there was another explosion.

Zhu Xiongying did not immediately start the next alchemy, but frowned, summarizing and thinking about the problem. This was his habit of refining alchemy for so many years.

First blow up the furnace three times, then summarize the problem, and then proceed to the next three times. If the next three times are unsuccessful, then stop and continue to summarize. The success rate for the last three times can basically remain above 90%.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced out the window.

Well, it's noon, and the sun is really bright.

"Pass the solitary order, hold an umbrella for the officials outside, and give them some cold drinks like sour plum soup."

Outside the door, Xiaobao's voice of "obey the order" came.

What Zhu Xiongying wanted was to intimidate all the officials, not to kill them. This was different between him and Lao Zhu. Lao Zhu had unlimited energy and could wipe out the officialdom at once, but Zhu Xiongying did not know how to do it.

If you don't have the courage, you'll mainly end up in trouble.

While packing up the medicinal materials, I was thinking about things.

He is judging what follow-up problems will arise from today's matter and how to solve it.

Hundreds of officials are easy to deal with. These officials who came to power after the three major cases were spoiled by Old Zhu. After all, Old Zhu put away his sword.

Now that I am a little shocked, I can immediately remind them of the fear of being dominated by Lao Zhu's butcher knife.

And then there were gradual changes. With Liu Bowen taking over the staff, there would be no trouble in the court.

As for Zhu Yunwen.

In Zhu Xiongying's eyes, this guy is a waste. As long as he is in Yingtian Mansion, he can't make any trouble.

Zhu Xiongying mainly thinks about Zhu Shangbing.

He was deciding whether to use Zhu Shangbing as a guide to play a big game.

For example, if you kill this guy, you may be able to directly stimulate the Qin King Zhu Ping to carry the flag to rebel, and thus naturally launch the banner of reducing the vassal state.

Look at it from Zhu Xiongying’s perspective.

He wished that Lao Zhu would cut down the vassal when he was still alive. After all, Lao Zhu still had a very strong deterrent effect on the vassal kings. Even the King of Yan, Zhu Di, could only kneel obediently in front of Lao Zhu.

"Your Highness, the Duke of Wei has sent a letter."

At this moment, Xiaobao's voice came from outside the house again.

'Why doesn't this guy stop stuttering?'

‘The Duke of Wei?’

Zhu Xiongying frowned slightly. If Xu Huizu had something to do, he would definitely come to see him in person. It was impossible to send a letter, that is to say.

This letter comes from Xu Miaojin.

When he thought of this woman, Zhu Xiongying couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart.

"Bring it in."
