Ming Dynasty: Tanks blocked the door and you said to me, "Long live Ming Dynasty"

tread!

tread!

tread!

The sound of steady and powerful footsteps echoed in the hall.

With every step he took, King Jin felt as if a mountain was pressing down on him.

He gritted his teeth and crawled to his feet, crawling on the ground, not daring to look up, struggling internally.

The emperor gave him two choices.

One is rebellion!

The second is to donate your property!

That was the wealth accumulated by their lineage of Prince Jin for eleven generations!

He really couldn't bear to donate it all.

However, the result of the rebellion...

Isn’t King Dai the most ready-made example?

The emperor in front of him is no longer the boy who ignored state affairs and indulged in carpentry all day long...

He was the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty who had been instructed and trained by Emperor Hongwu in his dreams and was decisive in killing people!

He dismissed prime ministers and killed corrupt officials, expelled the Western barbarians from Taiwan, and personally led an expedition against the Jiannu in Liaodong... In just one year, he did so many earth-shaking things!

Would such an emperor allow me to rebel under his nose?

impossible! This is absolutely impossible!

If I show the slightest disrespect, I'm afraid the lineage of King Jin will be expelled from the family.

At this moment, the handle of a gun was already against his forehead.

Zhu Youxiao held the revolver in reverse and handed it to Prince Jin again.

"Now tell me your choice!"

The tense atmosphere in the hall was instantly pushed to its peak.

Everyone stared at Prince Jin, who was lying on the ground and trembling all over.

Wei Zhongxian was ready to rush over to protect the emperor at any time.

Sun Kangwang, Zhen Beiwang, You Tong and others, some holding guns, some holding knives, all of them were murderous.

If the King of Jin dared to raise his hand even a little bit, his body and hands would be separated in the next moment.

Seeing them like this, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but shout:

"What are you doing? Put all your weapons away for me!"

Sun Kangwang and others looked at each other and felt a little embarrassed when they heard the words, but the emperor's order could not be disobeyed, so they had to put away their swords and guns reluctantly.

Just then, something unexpected happened.

A cry of grief resounded throughout the hall.

"Your Majesty! I am loyal to you, and the sun and the moon can bear witness to my loyalty. How dare I show the slightest disrespect?"

"Your Majesty is kind and virtuous, and cares about the people of the world. I admire you very much! I am willing to offer all the money and food in the Prince of Jin's Mansion to help your Majesty share your worries!"

As he spoke, he banged his head.

Everyone's worries finally settled down at this moment.

Zhu Shenxuan fell to the ground and tilted his head to look at his father. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but there was an inexplicable regret in his heart.

Just now, for a moment, he really hoped that his father would grab the gun and shoot the emperor directly.

But feeling the powerful aura emanating from Zhu Youxiao, he couldn't help but feel a little scared for the damn thoughts that inexplicably arose in his mind.

When Zhu Youxiao heard the Prince of Jin's answer, his expression eased a little and he put his revolver back into his waist.

"My brother, you are able to understand the great principles, and I am very pleased."

"Everyone get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

Zhu Qiugui felt as if he had been pardoned and bowed to express his gratitude. The Princess of Jin and the other two quickly followed suit to express their gratitude.

Zhu Qiugui stood up with the support of his hands, but his legs were a little weak and he almost fell down.

Fortunately, Wei Zhongxian, who was standing by, held him up.

"Your Highness, please be careful. If you are not feeling well, take more rest."

Since His Majesty's attitude towards Prince of Jin has changed, Wei Zhongxian naturally has to follow suit.

Zhu Qiugui nodded and thanked him: "Thank you for your concern, eunuch."

The disaster was urgent, Zhu Youxiao did not want to delay and gave orders immediately.

"Sun Kangwang immediately dispatched people to cooperate with Minister Guo to receive money and grain from the Prince of Jin's mansion and start disaster relief work as soon as possible."

"According to the order!"

Sun Kangwang immediately gestured to Zhu Qiugui.

"Your Majesty, please!"

Upon seeing this, Prince Jin quickly bowed to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I will take my leave now."

"Thank you, Brother Wang. The disaster relief here is over. I will give you a great credit. Go now."

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, and the door of Chengyun Hall slowly opened.

Zhu Qiugui and the other two bowed again and took their leave, then followed Sun Kangwang out of the hall.

There were Jinyiwei on duty outside the hall, and not far away there were servants from the Prince of Jin's mansion busy coming and going.

Everything looks peaceful and orderly, hidden in the night lights.

They didn't know that the people in Chengyun Hall had just experienced an extremely dangerous moment.

Zhu Qiugui walked out of the hall and breathed a sigh of relief, not realizing that his back was already wet with cold sweat.

Having just walked away from the gates of hell, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

Zhu Shenxuan's palms still felt a little painful from the nails because he had clenched his fists too tightly.

As the prince of Jin, he could have inherited his father's title and enjoyed the wealth accumulated by eleven generations.

But at this moment, everything will come to nothing, and I really don't want to accept it.

Princess Jin was still in shock, her face full of fear and confusion.

Inside Chengyun Hall, after watching the few people walk away, Wei Zhongxian recalled the scene just now and still felt a little scared.

He immediately turned around and knelt down before Zhu Youxiao, tears streaming down his face.

"Your Majesty! As the old saying goes, a son of a thousand gold coins should not sit in the hall, let alone your Majesty, who is worth ten thousand gold coins!"

"For the safety of Your Majesty, for the people of the world, and for the Ming Dynasty! I beg Your Majesty not to do anything dangerous like you did just now!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhen Beiwang and the others also reacted. They all knelt down and spoke in unison.

"Your Majesty, please do not take any more risks!"

Everyone had a serious expression, spoke in a loud voice, and their emotions were sincere and came from the heart.

Zhu Youxiao was moved but also felt helpless.

These guys don't think I'm really that stupid!

He smiled bitterly and said, "You don't think that I will really hand over my fate and the destiny of the Ming Dynasty to a mere Prince of Jin, do you?"

Wei Zhongxian was stunned when he heard this: "But Your Majesty, just now..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhu Youxiao stretched out his clenched left hand and slowly opened it in front of everyone.

Ding! Ding! Ding...

With five crisp metal hitting the ground sounds, five revolver bullets were scattered under Zhu Youxiao's feet, only the shells were left, but no bullets were found...

Wei Zhongxian then came to his senses and his worry turned into joy.

It turned out that the emperor had been prepared and did not put himself in danger easily.

"Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is mighty! I shouldn't have guessed your intentions. I know my crime. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"

Having said that, Wei Zhongxian had a smile on his face.

When others saw this method, they couldn't help but admire the emperor even more, and hurriedly followed Wei Zhongxian in bowing and cheering.

"We know our crime, please punish us, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Youxiao just waved his hand when he saw this.

"It's not a crime. You are just eager to protect your master. Go and get busy."

"Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty. I will take my leave."

Everyone bowed again and left.

Zhu Youxiao walked to the entrance of the hall and looked at the night sky. The moon was bright, the stars were sparse, the wind was light, and the clouds were thin. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The matter of Prince Jin is over.

The next step is to push forward disaster relief efforts.

Chapter 395: There is nothing we won’t give to them, only what they don’t want!

Prince Jin and his entourage left Chengyun Hall and went straight to Changshou Palace.

Changshou Palace is located south of the west axis of the Prince of Jin's Mansion and was formerly the residence of the Crown Prince Zhu Shenxuan.

Now that the emperor has visited the Prince of Jin's Mansion, the main palace at the rear, Changchun Palace, located on the central axis, has been vacated, so the whole family can only live in Changshou Palace temporarily.

When they arrived at Changchun Palace, Prince Jin stopped and saluted Sun Kangwang.

"Master Sun, please wait a moment. The princess is not feeling well. I will send her back to rest first and get the key to the storehouse. After that, the prince will take you to receive the money and grain."

"Go quickly and come back quickly!" Sun Kangwang waved his hand.

"Thank you, sir!"

After saying this, Prince Jin led the princess into the Changshou Palace. Seeing this, Zhu Shenxuan hurriedly followed.

Sun Kangwang just glanced and said nothing.

The Prince of Jin's mansion is now guarded by the Embroidered Uniform Guards everywhere, so he is not worried at all that the Prince of Jin will take the opportunity to escape.

He just made a hand gesture, and immediately a Jinyiwei flag with excellent lightness skills quietly followed behind the Prince of Jin and his two men.

At this time, Zhen Beiwang had just arrived.

"grown ups!"

"You've come at the right time. Take a team of people and search everywhere inside and outside the palace and in and outside the city."

"No matter what method I use, I want to know the true situation of the money and grain in the Prince Jin's Mansion before dawn."

"Yes, sir! I will check it out right away!"

......

In the Changshou Palace.

After sending the princess back to her bedroom, Prince Jin and his son returned to the main hall of the house.

Without the Jinyiwei around, they finally relaxed completely.

"Father, are we really going to give away all our property? Should we keep some for ourselves?"

Zhu Shenxuan still feels unwilling to accept this.

If they donated all their assets, their family would be worse off than an ordinary wealthy family.
