Ming Dynasty: Gain one supernatural power every day

Zhu Gaoxi smiled and said, "That's your son, Zhu Qizhen."

Zhu Zhanji was stunned.

He stared at the young emperor, who was twice his age, his mouth opening and closing repeatedly: "Fourth Uncle, he... he's my son?"

He believed everything his fourth uncle said.

If his fourth uncle said it was his son, then it was his son. So his little face became serious, and he looked him over carefully, feeling that he did look a bit like him.

All the civil and military officials in the tent were stunned.

Those who walked out of the Golden Gate were clearly Emperor Taizong Zhu Di and Emperor Renzong Zhu Gaochi from the portraits in the Imperial Ancestral Temple! But how did they end up here?

Others may not recognize him, having only seen his portrait, but Zhang Fu and other senior officials all knew him.

Zhu Qizhen rubbed his eyes, his voice trembling, "What... what exactly happened..."

He looked at Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi and was a little dazed. They really did look very much like the portraits in the Imperial Ancestral Temple.

Zhu Di did not speak immediately, but stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the generals in the tent.

"Is it really Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong manifesting their spirits? And Empress Renxiaowen too! That child, does he look like Emperor Xuanzong?? And why is the Prince of Han standing next to him??" Zhang Fu's weathered face was filled with surprise, joy, and disbelief.

"Could we be seeing things? These really do look like Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong, and that's Empress Renxiaowen next to them!!"

"This is 90% similar to the portrait! Could it be that Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong ascended to heaven, couldn't bear to watch anymore, and returned from the celestial realm?! That golden-armored general looks like a heavenly soldier, he must have come to protect Emperor Taizong."

"That looks like the Prince of Han from back then!!! What, even the Prince of Han can't stand it anymore!"

"I heard that the Prince of Han was very skilled in battle back then. He must have come to protect Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong."

"Are you out of your mind? The Prince of Han has come to protect Emperor Renzong..."

"Even Emperor Taizong has come out, what else is impossible?"

Zhu Gaoxu muttered under his breath, glaring at Zhu Qizhen as he spoke: "Father, this is your good great-grandson. Today we'll take good care of him."

Zhu Qizhen took another step back, almost touching Wang Zhen.

Wang Zhen trembled all over, then hurriedly said, "Where are the people? Are you all dead? Can't you see these mysterious sorcerers? Quickly come and protect the Emperor, or he will exterminate your entire family..."

"How could these people of unknown origin possibly be Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong? Quickly, tell them to get rid of them!" Wang Zhen shouted again, his shrill voice making people feel very uncomfortable.

Upon hearing Wang Zhen's words, Zhu Qizhen quickly echoed them.

"Yes, how could they possibly be Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong? Quickly eliminate them, and I will reward you handsomely!"

"This..." Hearing this, the soldiers stepped forward, but they hesitated because they had heard from the old ministers that these were Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong.

Moreover, their sudden appearance might mean that Emperor Taizong had truly become an immortal.

If they offend Emperor Taizong, will they have a good ending? Besides, this golden-armored general with the rake doesn't look like someone to be trifled with.

"Wait!" Zhang Fu and other senior officials quickly called for a halt.

When the soldiers heard Zhang Fu call to halt, they breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put down their weapons, and sheathed their swords.

"Zhang Fu, do you want to rebel...?" Wang Zhen said immediately when he saw Zhang Fu speak, before Zhu Qizhen could even reply.

"Zhang Fu, do you still recognize me..." Zhu Di's words struck the hearts of Zhang Fu and other old ministers with his imperial aura.

"It really is Emperor Taizong, that's right, this aura is definitely Emperor Taizong..." The old ministers below chimed in.

"Greetings, Emperor Taizong, Empress Renxiao, Emperor Renzong..." The old ministers hurriedly knelt down and shouted.

The younger ministers who saw this believed it most of the time, since some of them had seen the portrait before. Now that it seemed to be true, it must be that Emperor Taizong couldn't bear to see it anymore and brought Emperor Renzong's spirit to appear.

"Emperor Taizong is here! Who dares to lay down arms? Retreat immediately!" When Zhang Fu and the others saw that it was indeed Emperor Taizong who had returned, their confidence soared, and the fierce, bandit-like aura of military generals returned. They immediately ordered the soldiers to retreat.

"It's fake! Your Majesty, this is definitely fake. They've conspired to deceive us!" Wang Zhen's face turned ashen.

"You're fucking annoying me to death!" Zhu Gaoxu delivered a left front kick and a right hook, knocking Wang Zhen to the ground.

Zhu Gaoxu was already annoyed by the eunuch's voice, and when the man tried to speak again, he was punched to the ground.

"Excellent, as expected of the King of Han!"

"That's fucking satisfying!"

"Old Zhang, this damned eunuch, I feel uncomfortable just looking at him. How did you all fall for his tricks?" Zhu Gaoxu said.

"Your Highness, we are certainly not afraid of this damned eunuch. But the Emperor is behind us," Zhang Fu said.

"Oh, I had almost forgotten about my great-grandson if you hadn't mentioned it." Upon hearing Zhang Fu's words, Zhu Di turned to look at Zhu Qizhen, who was huddled behind the dragon throne.

"Yes, Father, our Zhu family has produced such a person, we should teach him a good lesson..." Zhu Gaoxu said.

"Protect the Emperor! Quickly, protect the Emperor! Where are they? Capture these demons! A great reward awaits!" Zhu Qizhen shouted.

As a result, no one paid any attention to him. These people were also used to being bullied by Wang Zhen, so when they saw Emperor Taizong arrive, they ignored Zhu Qizhen even more.

After all, to put it bluntly, this is a family matter. Besides, who are they anyway to dare interfere with Emperor Taizong and Emperor Renzong?

"Arrogant, Father! This kid is about to die, and he's still so arrogant," Zhu Gaosui said.

"This kid needs to be taught a lesson," Zhu Gaochi also said.

"Go, Second Brother, just don't kill him..." Zhu Di also spoke up. He saw Zhu Gaoxu sharpening his knife and gave him the order.

"Yes, Father!"

"It's alright, Second Brother, as long as he has a breath left, he can live." Zhu Gaoxi also strongly supported Zhu Gaoxu, after all, he had that power of destiny.

"Understood, Fourth Brother. Then Second Brother will not stand on ceremony."

"Second brother, let me have a go!" Zhu Gaosui stepped forward as well.

"Second brother, let's all come together!" Zhu Gaochi joined in.

"Marshal, do you want to come?" Zhu Gaoxu asked Zhu Bajie.

"I, Old Zhu, won't come. After all, this is your family matter," Pigsy chuckled and said.

Next up was a mixed doubles match between the brothers.

Needless to say, Zhu Gaoxu was there to vent his anger, and he was beating him mercilessly. He knew perfectly well that Zhu Qizhen was Zhu Zhanji's son, and since Zhu Zhanji had roasted him, it was perfectly reasonable for him to beat his son now.

He unleashed all the power he hadn't been able to muster in Annam, delivering punches that landed squarely, causing Zhu Qizhen to scream in agony.

Zhu Gaosui was very particular about how he beat people. Having served in the Embroidered Uniform Guard for so many years, he knew which parts of a person's body would hurt the most but leave the least marks.

He specifically targeted areas like the ribs, the back of the knees, and the lower back, using vicious methods that caused Zhu Qizhen to writhe in pain like a fish out of water.

This prince relies purely on brute force, randomly striking people; his left hand deals high damage, and his right hand deals high damage as well.

Zhu Gaochi swung his fists wildly, throwing punches left and right without paying attention to any moves, only aiming at Zhu Qizhen.

He was already overweight, and over the years Empress Xu had forced him to practice martial arts a few times. Although he had no technique, he was strong, and every punch he threw made Zhu Qizhen cry out in pain.
