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

Not long after Keshi was taken away, Xu Guangqi sent someone to deliver two large boxes. Zhu Youxiao was busy reading memorials, so he had someone put them next to the imperial desk, ready to look at what was inside when he had time.

On the other hand, after leaving the palace, Wei Zhongxian had everyone on the list summoned to the East Factory.

Sun Yunhe was the chief judge of the Eastern Depot, and he was also the one who arrived the fastest.

As soon as he entered the lobby of the East Factory, he bowed to Wei Zhongxian and asked.

"Foster father, you summoned us in such a hurry, but is there something wrong in the palace?"

Wei Zhongxian did not say a word, but just sat in the main seat, holding a pair of jade balls in his hands, looking quietly outside the door.

More and more people came, and there were more than forty people on the list provided by Ke Shi!

By the time it was getting dark, all the people had arrived.

Sun Yunhe had been waiting for a while, and when he saw that everyone who was supposed to come had arrived, he started asking again.

"Godfather, can you tell me now?"

Wei Zhongxian then stood up, rubbed the jade ball, and swept his eyes over everyone's faces one by one.

"Everyone, I'm sure you all know what happened when I went to the palace this morning."

"Now I have bad news for you!"

"Your good days are over!"

Hearing this, everyone present's faces changed drastically.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Zhongxian told everyone what had happened in the palace.

When they heard that it was Keshi who betrayed them, everyone started cursing.

"This woman is so vicious!"

"Godfather, please save me. I don't want to die yet!"

"Foster father, Your Majesty has received so many birthday gifts, I guess you are short of money. I still have some money saved at home, please help me. I am willing to use all my savings to buy a way to live!"

"Ke Shi actually did such a thing. We will never let her off easily. I will send people to kill her son and her brother!"

"........."

A group of people were talking at once and were all panicked.

Some people want to buy their lives with money.

Some people also wanted to wipe out the entire Ke family before they died.

There were even some people who wanted Wei Zhongxian to turn a blind eye and let him and his entire family escape from the capital.

At the same time, there were a few who hid in the corners and kept silent, as if they had accepted their fate, but there was a flash of unwillingness in their eyes.

Wei Zhongxian watched these people's reactions quietly. He heard Zhu Youxiao's words very clearly.

The meaning is very clear as to who can stay and who cannot.

That is to say, some of these people must die!

But there are also some people who can stay.

Who lives and who dies depends on how he chooses!

But he didn't know how to choose so as to satisfy Zhu Youxiao. After thinking for a long time, he looked at the senior officials of the Jinyiwei who were present.

"Everyone, I'm sorry!"

"If you want to blame someone, you can only blame that evil woman Keshi!"

"We have to obey the Emperor's order!"

"Come here, arrest Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, Cui Yingyuan, Yang Huan and others!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of barbarians rushed in from outside. Before Tian Ergeng and others could react, they were knocked to the ground by the barbarians.

Xu Xianchun panicked and struggled to shout, "Godfather, what are you doing?"

Cui Yingyuan and Yang Huan were also very panicked and kept begging for mercy.

Only Tian Ergeng changed his previous flattery and his eyes were full of resentment.

"Is this how my father-in-law takes care of us?"

"The Jinyiwei have done so many dirty jobs for you on a daily basis. So, do you want to wipe us out now?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Zhongxian shook his head and sighed, "General Tian, ​​it's not that we don't remember our old friendship, it's just that the Emperor's mind is too hard to guess nowadays!"

"In order to protect ourselves, we have no choice but to cut off our arms!"

"Everyone, I'm sorry!"

"But you can rest assured that after you die, your wives and children will be taken care of by our family!"

Having said this, he shouted at the foreigners.

"Send you all on your way!"

The guards who were able to serve outside Wei Zhongxian's door were naturally not ordinary soldiers. Each of them was strong and had extraordinary martial arts. After hearing the order, they dragged Tian Ergeng and others outside like chicks.

They cursed and struggled, but to no avail.

After a moment, the mood of everyone in the hall was like the head outside falling to the ground with a thud.

The Left Commander-in-Chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Right Commander-in-Chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard are dead!

Although Wei Zhongxian didn't know who Zhu Youxiao wanted to survive, he knew that withdrawing his hands from the Jinyiwei might be an approach that would satisfy Zhu Youxiao.

After killing four people in a row, his butcher knife did not stop.

Subsequently, four people, including Feng Quan, the Vice Minister of Rites, Zhou Yingqiu, the former Minister of Punishments, Ni Wenhuan, the Minister of Rites, and Tian Ji, the Junior Minister of Rites, also followed in the footsteps of Tian Ergeng and others.

These people are just those who hold high positions!

And those adopted sons and grandsons who held low official positions were killed by Wei Zhongxian in one go, seventeen of them!

The survivors followed him to the yard, looking at the corpses lying there, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, and their faces were completely pale!

Wei Zhongxian was not in a much better condition. He trembled and let out a cry of grief.

"It hurts our family!"

After saying that, his eyes went dark and he fainted on the ground.

A group of people hurriedly carried Wei Zhongxian back to the hall and asked someone to call the doctor back, but no one noticed that several figures had quietly left at some point!

Chapter 52 There is a traitor, protect him quickly!

In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao returned to the Jingren Palace again after a busy day.

After what happened in Kunning Palace last time, these concubines who seemed extremely noble in the eyes of outsiders were, in Zhu Youxiao's heart, women who were more pitiful than the other.

Although they have fine clothes and delicious food, they do not receive the love they deserve.

They are surrounded by people when they go out, but are left alone in their empty rooms late at night.

Therefore, as a guy who took over the magpie's nest, Zhu Youxiao decided to fulfill his duties as a husband for Tianqi.

In Jingren Palace, seeing Zhu Youxiao coming again, Concubine Chun smiled brightly and quickly asked people to go to the small kitchen to prepare meals.

Zhang Yan was a sensible woman. She personally recorded everything that Zhu Youxiao did when cooking in Kunning Palace, especially those dishes that she thought Zhu Youxiao should like very much. She also copied a copy of these recipes for all the concubines in the harem.

So, when a table full of later dishes such as stir-fried lamb with green onions and sweet and sour pork ribs were served, Zhu Youxiao felt as if the salivary glands in his mouth were rebelling.

During the banquet, Zhu Youxiao inadvertently mentioned that he had captured Ke Shi during the day, and Concubine Chun's eyes instantly became moist upon hearing this.

The next moment, she stood up, stepped back, and knelt beside Zhu Youxiao.

"I thank your majesty for his grace!"

"If Ting'er knew about this, she would definitely thank Your Majesty for seeking justice for her!"

The Ting'er she mentioned was the unknown third princess of Tianqi who weighed only five kilograms when she was buried!

Zhu Youxiao's old face turned red with embarrassment, and he reached out to pull her up from the ground.

"I was stupid before. This is what a father should do. How can I have the dignity to let you do this?"

When Concubine Chun raised her head and looked at Zhu Youxiao again, the emotion in her eyes changed unconsciously.

If before there was seven parts of respect mixed with two parts of timidity and one part of resentment, then at this moment, the resentment has gradually disappeared and been replaced by gratitude.

And that little bit of timidity turned into love from the heart.

This is an emotion I have never experienced before!

It’s my true love!

After the meal, Concubine Chun changed her usual habit of keeping people to serve her, and directly dismissed all the palace maids and eunuchs, and personally undressed Zhu Youxiao.

The north wind was blowing outside the hall, but inside the hall there was a scene of spring flowers in full bloom.

Perhaps because of her great revenge, Concubine Chun seemed like a completely different person tonight.

Crazy!

initiative!

No reservations about Zhu Youxiao!

All the skills that were taught when entering the palace were used all at once.

Zhu Youxiao had never had such an experience before. After the madness, looking at Concubine Chun's flushed cheeks, a touch of pity rose in his heart.

"Your Majesty, please take a rest first. I will go get you a glass of water."

Seeing that he was staring at her, Concubine Chun thought of the madness just now and her face became even redder. She struggled to get up and walked towards the table in the distance.

But as soon as she got out of bed, her brows suddenly frowned, and she let out a groan of pain. She couldn't even walk properly.

Zhu Youxiao was quick to act. He jumped off the bed, took her into his arms, and spoke tenderly.

"I'm not thirsty. Just lie down and let me take a look at you."

Concubine Chun nodded shyly, returned to the couch and let him do what he wanted.

But good things always seem to have some bumps in the road.

Just then, the guards outside exclaimed.

"Oh no! There's a traitor! Protect the emperor!"

Then, a group of palace maids pushed open the palace door and rushed in.

The leader was Concubine Chun's personal maid, Liu Huaner.

She rushed to the bed with a look of panic on her face, knelt down and said with her head down.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. Someone is planning a rebellion!"

Zhu Youxiao's heart instantly rose to his throat and he shouted.

"Who has the guts to do this?"

Liu Huan'er quickly replied: "Your Majesty, it's still unclear right now. We only know that Bei'an Gate was attacked and breached by the thieves. At least nearly a thousand people have entered the palace!"

Bei'anmen is the north gate of the Forbidden City. After entering, it leads directly to Xuanwumen and Coal Hill. On both sides are the Silijian and Neiguanjian respectively.

Further ahead are the Kunning Palace and the Qianqing Palace!

That is the heart of the entire Forbidden City!

It’s a joke that someone could rush into Bei’anmen without anyone noticing!

Zhu Youxiao put on his big shorts, wrapped the dragon robe around himself, and comforted Concubine Chun: "Stay here and don't run around!"

After saying that, he rushed out of Jingren Palace, pulled over a guard, and pointed at the gate of Jingren Palace.

"Keep an eye on that place. If you let the thieves get in, I will kill all your clans!"

"If everything goes well, I will promote you three levels!"

The guard immediately clasped his fists and bowed: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will protect you to the death!"

After explaining everything here, Zhu Youxiao ran towards the Qianqing Palace.

The palace was in chaos at this time, and the sound of fighting continued to come from the direction of Xuanwu Gate.
