Chapter 309 Act decisively, or kill them all
The old deputy general had not yet finished speaking.
He was interrupted by the Ninth Prince:
"You old thing who can't distinguish between high and low, do you know that you are nothing lowly in my eyes?"
The old deputy general was obviously stunned, and could not believe that the noble Ninth Prince would insult him.
What made him even more unconvinced was yet to come.
The Ninth Prince sneered:
"You really think you are something, and you dare to question me in front of me why I doubt you.
Even if your master stood before me, she wouldn't have the courage of an old man like you."
The Ninth Prince glanced at Shen Zhao with disdain.
"Do you really think I'm some useless fool? Do you think I just returned and don't know what's going on in the capital camp?
It's just that you don't have a decisive and efficient commander, allowing you to do evil in the camp.
Now that I am here, please put away those inappropriate thoughts.
Otherwise, I don’t mind having a few more drops of blood on my hands.”
After saying that, he raised his eyes slightly and said to the old deputy general:
"This king doesn't like ugly things. Get to the back of the table. If you dare to take advantage of your age again, this king will make you lie in a coffin and die of old age."
The old deputy general broke out in a cold sweat.
But the lieutenants behind him were all watching.
If he retreated now, he would not only lose face, but also humiliate his master.
"Your Majesty, I am the deputy commander of the camp..."
Killing intent flashed in the Ninth Prince's eyes.
[Does this noisy old fellow really mean that I dare not kill him?]
As he raised his hand, a silver bullet hit the old deputy general's forehead.
The old lieutenant's pupils constricted and he tried his best to dodge.
But he is old, how can he hide away?
He avoided the fatal blow and the silver bullet was embedded in his cheek.
In an instant, a bloody hole the size of a finger appeared on the old face.
"I will never repeat what I have said. Anyone who dares to disobey me will die!
Are you my deputy general or my deputy commander?
No matter what level of status they have, they are qualified to take your life!"
The old lieutenant let out a wail.
The Ninth Prince's eyes grew even colder.
"Howl again, and I'll pull out your tongue."
The old lieutenant forced himself to hold back his cry of pain and closed his mouth tightly.
He walked back silently.
He covered his face, from which blood was trickling out, with one hand, and his body suddenly hunched over.
My legs were still shaking.
The Ninth Prince really dared to kill him, not just scare him!
This realization made him dare not act rashly again.
The Ninth Prince snorted coldly, "If you had known better earlier, you wouldn't have endured that punishment."
He looked at the other lieutenants again.
The other lieutenants tensed up instantly.
Chen Zhao looked at the deputy generals who were as incompetent as quails.
She had never seen them so obedient.
The Ninth Prince’s method of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys was really clever.
"Whoever sent it, stand up."
"If you let me find out, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless."
The Ninth Prince's eyes swept across the faces of the deputy generals one by one like a knife.
Those who did not participate in the assassination were about to cry.
Who the hell did this?
What kind of man is it if he dares to do something but not to take responsibility for it?
They have to accept the Ninth King's death gaze.
From the reactions of these deputy generals, the Ninth Prince had already guessed who it was.
And Shen Zhao knew who did it more easily.
Because that person was still comforting himself in his heart.
[No one will find me. The assassins have been hiding well in the Beijing camp.
Besides, they are not my soldiers, so even if they investigate, they can't trace it back to me.
Even if those people were caught, the only one who would be punished would be that fool Lu Xing.]
Chen Zhao looked at the deputy general and found that his eyes were filled with overwhelming hatred when he looked at the Ninth Prince.
But he hid it very well and it disappeared in an instant.
Is Lu Xing stupid? Shen Zhao didn't think so.
On the contrary, Lu Xing is very smart.
Because she heard Lu Xing's thoughts, which were different from what he expressed on his face.
[I ordered my men to control those people when they arrived just now. I didn’t expect that the Ninth Prince would come at such a coincidence.
He was so decisive. I pretended to be crazy and stupid and tolerated that fool for a long time. I pretended that I didn't know that someone had planted a secret stake in me. Little did he know that I was paying attention to the movements of those people every day.
I deliberately persuaded Cao Dejiang to go see Wu Yunhai, even if I didn't apologize to him openly.
You should also take better care of him in the Beijing camp in private.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that when Wu Yunhai was being assassinated, he was rescued by Cao Dejiang who arrived at the scene just in time.
It's so annoying. He pretends to be crazy and stupid, but his true nature cannot be revealed.
Speaking of which, the money Madam gave me this month was one cent less. Does Madam not love me anymore?
Chen Zhao listened to Lu Xing's unexpected turn and silently blocked him out.
"You won't tell me, right? I'd rather kill someone wrongly than let him go. So, I can only ask my brother to select some suitable people from the court to be the deputy commanders of the Beijing Camp."
"Come here, take all these people out and kill them all!"
When the Ninth Prince said this, not only the deputy generals were shocked, but also Shen Zhao and others.
All the deputy generals looked at the Ninth Prince in astonishment.
Someone immediately begged for mercy, "Your Highness, I am innocent. I did not participate in the assassination. I don't know which conscienceless person would actually assassinate the only legitimate son of the Marquis of Loyalty.
Please, Your Majesty, find this man and give justice to Prince Wu and me."
"Your Majesty, please spare my life. We are wronged. We are as angry as Your Majesty and are just as eager to find the murderer as Your Majesty. Please spare my life."
The deputy generals all begged for mercy.
The Ninth Prince narrowed his eyes slightly.
"You have reminded me that I really cannot kill all of you."
The deputy generals breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately the prince still has some concerns.
The Ninth Prince glanced at Chen Zhao and asked, "Which of these people are yours? This prince trusts you, so I will leave your people alone and not kill them."
The deputy generals, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt their hearts suddenly rise to their throats.
Chen Zhao knew that this was the Ninth Prince trying to win people’s hearts for her.
Make those who have not submitted to her regret it.
Let those who have submitted to her rejoice.
Chen Zhao pointed at Liu Zhong, Zhang Liang, Han Wenzai, Lu Xing, and Cao Dejiang and said, "These are my men. Your Highness, please deal with the others."
In fact, there is another person, that is Lieutenant General Yao, but Lieutenant General Yao is still recovering from his injuries and did not appear here.
"A few of you stay here, and everyone else, drag them out and chop them off!"
Han Wenzai was very fortunate that he was now General Chu's man.
The Ninth Prince treats all other forces equally except General Chu.
He doesn't care who you are, he will kill you.
He just didn't believe that there was no emperor or princes among them. The Ninth Prince didn't even care about the face of the royal family.
Lu Xing reacted calmly and was not afraid that the Ninth Prince would kill him.
Cao Dejiang secretly felt fortunate that he had figured it out yesterday and decided to live for himself and his family.
He was even more grateful to General Chu for accepting him as one of his own.
The other lieutenants could no longer sit still. This was the first time they faced a direct attack of death.
Everyone was terrified at the moment.
This Ninth Prince is not a general of Chu.
This is a ruthless character who really dares to kill all of them. The emperor will not blame him, but will only scold him at most.
The master behind them would not offend the newly returned Ninth Prince just for their dead selves.
Now it's a death sentence anyway.
The few people who did not participate in the assassination secretly made up their minds to go all out. In order to survive, they had to prove their innocence.
One of them stepped forward and clasped his fists:
