The Ming Dynasty: Starting with the Somersault Cloud, Old Zhu was so envious he cried!

At first, Mao Xiang was still immersed in the despair of being executed along with his entire family by the Emperor, and had no intention of paying attention to the Sixth Prince.

"Sixth Prince, I am merely a dying man and I am afraid I cannot obey your orders."

"I have failed to protect His Majesty this time, and I have committed a grave mistake. I cannot escape my punishment."

At this point, Mao Xiang lowered his head, his face ashen.

The next second,

Zhu Ming slapped him on the butt, making him stumble forward.

"Hey, what kind of nonsense is that? I was the one who let that whole roasted pig out, and I wasn't afraid, so what are you afraid of?"

Looking at Zhu Ming's carefree and filial demeanor, Mao Xiang couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself. He shook his head and said, "Sixth Prince, I know you are trying to comfort me, but our situations are completely different."

"You are His Majesty's eldest son, and the Empress dotes on you greatly. Even if you make a mistake, the Emperor will at most scold you a couple of times and will not punish you severely!"

"But I am different. I am just a subject. My failure to protect the Emperor today is my dereliction of duty."

"No matter how the Emperor punishes me, whether he beheads me or exterminates my entire family, I will have no complaints. I only feel sorry for my newlywed wife..."

At this point, even Mao Xiang, a tough man of steel, almost couldn't help but shed tears.

If it were in a different storyline...

At this point, Zhu Ming should have replied, "Rest in peace. I'll take care of your wife from now on!"

After spending some time together, it eventually escalated to: "Sister-in-law, don't turn around, I'm Mao Xiang!"

But unfortunately,

Our protagonist is only six years old this year, and in some ways, the little guy hasn't yet developed his intelligence.

So Zhu Ming replied, "Don't be afraid. If my father dares to punish you, I'll step in and handle it. I don't believe my father wouldn't give me this much face."

Upon hearing this, Mao Xiang's eyes lit up, and he almost shouted excitedly: "Is it really true, Godfather? I'd go through fire and water for you, Godfather!"

Commander Mao, who has been by Zhu's side for many years, knows best the Sixth Prince's position in His Majesty's heart.

Especially since the Empress is standing behind the Sixth Prince!

Throughout the entire palace, everyone knew that Empress Ma had an extreme fondness for the Sixth Prince.

They treat her like a precious gem, afraid she might fall if they held her in their hands or melt if they kept her in their mouths.

If the Sixth Prince is willing to plead for him, he might actually be able to save his life!

Thus, Mao Xiang completely changed his dejected and desperate demeanor, bowing deeply to the Sixth Prince and speaking excitedly:

"Your Highness, I am willing to go through fire and water for you, even unto death! Your Highness, just tell me who you wish to kill, and I will act immediately!"

Zhu Ming was speechless upon hearing this, rolling his eyes at the young age: "Why would I ask you to kill someone? It makes me sound like a villain. I just want you to kill a pig for me!"

After saying that, Zhu Ming led a bewildered Mao Xiang to a ruin.

George, the whole roasted pig that had been chasing him all over the yard, is now buried underneath.

"Help me get that wild boar out of there!"

Mao Xiang suddenly realized what was going on.

It turns out that when the Sixth Prince asked for his help, he meant he wanted him to kill this wild boar.

That's simple, even if the Sixth Prince doesn't say it.

He himself wanted to tear the wild boar to pieces.

Because of it, his entire family almost lost their lives.

Without further hesitation, Mao Xiang immediately summoned several subordinates, and together they managed to drag the enormous wild boar out of the ruins.

When it was first dragged out,

Suddenly, someone in the crowd sniffed the air, looking surprised, and exclaimed, "Wow! It smells so good! Where is that barbecue aroma coming from?"

Several people nearby chimed in, "Yes, it smells amazing! Strange, how can there be such a strong aroma of meat in this palace?"

Everyone looked around, their faces full of confusion.

At this moment, Zhu Ming stepped forward to check it. He touched it with his little hand and found it to be black and smelled like burnt barbecue.

"It's all burnt, hurry up and cut it!"

Upon hearing this, Mao Xiang immediately drew his sword from his waist and was about to strike when his movement suddenly froze in mid-air, and he was completely stunned.

This wild boar is just too strange!

I was too far away to see clearly at the time.

In addition, Mao Xiang was preoccupied with the matter of His Majesty's injury, so he failed to notice the strangeness of the wild boar.

Upon closer inspection, however, it was discovered that the wild boar was steaming, with its skin and flesh a deep reddish-brown and glossy, and its muscles thoroughly cooked.

This isn't a wild boar, it's clearly a roasted suckling pig!

His mind went completely blank for a moment, and his face was filled with disbelief.

He witnessed it with his own eyes just now.

This wild boar was incredibly fierce; it not only dared to defy His Majesty but also chased the Sixth Prince so far that he had to flee in all directions.

It was clearly a living, breathing strange beast.

How did it turn into a perfectly cooked roast pig in such a short time?

Mao Xiang became increasingly confused, gripping the knife but hesitant to make a move.

Zhu Ming, standing to the side, was already drooling from the rich aroma of the roasted pig, staring longingly at it.

Seeing that Mao Xiang was dawdling and not moving for a long time, he became a little impatient.

He reached out his little hand and snatched the sword from Mao Xiang's hand, then shoved the man aside, saying in a childish voice, "Go away! You're so slow even when you're butchering a pig, and you dare call yourself an expert? Go away!"

Mao Xiang was pushed around, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and could only obediently step aside.

A moment later, Zhu Ming gripped the knife in his small hand and slashed the unconscious whole roasted pig open with a single, powerful stroke!

A golden light appeared... Well, this isn't the Cooking Master Boy theater, there are no glowing dishes here.

Instead, a rich aroma of roasted meat, a hundred times stronger than before, burst forth from within, instantly engulfing the entire courtyard and filling the whole palace!

The guards present were immediately captivated by the fragrance, losing all sense of reason.

Their eyes were fixed on the whole roasted pig in front of the Sixth Prince, their throats bobbing up and down as they swallowed hard.

The aroma was coming from inside the wild boar.

If it weren't for the last vestiges of reason in their minds, constantly reminding them to be mindful of their identities...

Otherwise, they probably would have rushed up and fought with the Sixth Prince long ago.

Zhu Ming gripped the long knife, smoothly cut off a piece of juicy, plump meat, and put it directly into his mouth.

The moment your teeth gently bite into the meat, the rich, scalding juices burst forth in your mouth.

The fresh and fragrant flavor spreads throughout the body along the taste buds.

The rich aroma of the fat and the tender texture of the meat intertwine, creating a smooth and chewy mouthfeel, with the unique freshness of the ingredients swirling on the tongue.

The wonderful taste made Zhu Ming squint his eyes, looking completely intoxicated.

It's safe to say that this was the best barbecue he had ever eaten in his life.

The next second, Zhu Ming threw away his sword and began to tear into the tender, juicy roasted meat in front of him.

Like a hyena that has been starving for several days, its eating manner can even be described as inhuman!

This terrified Mao Xiang, who was standing nearby.

He couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that the Sixth Prince has been possessed by some kind of monster?

In fact, Zhu Ming was already starving.

Gourmet cells reshaped the cells in his body.

At this moment, every cell in his body seemed to be wailing incessantly, desperately craving abundant energy to fill the void.

The energy contained in a whole roasted pig can just make up for this loss!

As he continued to eat, subtle changes were taking place within his body.
