Chapter 374: Punishing the Nine Clans of the Princess Regent of the Great Zhou
The man's eyes rolled back and he fainted, not knowing whether it was from pain or fear.
The servants who followed out didn't know what to do after seeing the scene in front of them. They knelt on the ground and dared not move. Some of them even crawled back to call for help.
The aunt who had just spoken walked over to Bu Ruo and whispered, "My dear, this is a big deal. You should leave the imperial city now before it gets dark. Otherwise, you will be in trouble when the Zhang family comes."
"Yes, young lady, you should take your two children away quickly. This is the only son in the Zhang family. If you cripple him and catch him, you will be finished."
"That's right, let's go quickly, otherwise you won't be able to leave if people from Zhang's residence come."
There were many people watching, some good and some bad.
"No, they can't leave. We've all been here watching this happen. If they leave and implicate us, then Prime Minister Zhang will definitely take his anger out on us."
"Prime Minister Zhang has a close relationship with the wizard master. The master of the Zhang family has the highest level of witchcraft because of the wizard master's personal instruction. I heard that he even accepted the young master as his last disciple. You should know that the wizard master of this generation has never accepted any disciples."
The aunt who was standing up for Bu Ruo was a fierce person to begin with. She immediately got angry when she heard this: "What kind of bullshit are you talking about? We didn't do anything and just watched. Even if Prime Minister Zhang is so powerful, he can't be so confused about right and wrong."
"Young lady, take the children and leave quickly. We will go back too. I don't believe that the Prime Minister can come to our house to arrest anyone."
There was no panic on Bu Ruo's face. "Thank you very much, auntie. I will wait here for that Prime Minister to come and see what he can do to me."
"I never suffer any loss, and my children will never tolerate any injustice. I have to wait for Prime Minister Zhang to come and give me an explanation."
When the people around heard Bu Ruo's words, they all said she was crazy. That was the Prime Minister. As a father, how could he not know what his son had done outside for so many years? Moreover, many things were suppressed and dealt with by the Prime Minister.
Now this young lady has chopped off someone's legs and crippled him... and she wants the Prime Minister to give her an explanation. Even the emperor wouldn't dare to say that.
At this time, Guo Shuangwen, who was allowed by Bu Ruoen to go out to buy things, also arrived here accompanied by Wei Jieying. Guo Shuangwen looked at the man on the ground and did not recognize him for a while, but Wei Jieying recognized him first.
“This…this is…”
Wei Jieying was so frightened that he stuttered. He walked directly to Bu Ruo and whispered, "Princess, this couldn't be you who did it."
"Yes, it was this princess who did it."
The guard's legs went weak. "Princess, this man is the only son of Prime Minister Zhang. Prime Minister Zhang is second only to the emperor and the wizards in Beining. And this is in Beining, not in the Great Zhou. You...you are in big trouble now."
"Princess, why don't you go back to the inn first and let me handle this. I have some friendship with the Prime Minister and will definitely plead for you. We'll see if he can show leniency to you."
Bu Ruo glanced at him and said, "Thank you, Lord Wei, for your kindness. I will wait here for the Prime Minister to come. However, Lord Wei said something wrong. It is not the Prime Minister who will punish me. I want the Prime Minister to give me an explanation."
"If your Prime Minister cannot satisfy me today, I will turn your Beining Imperial City upside down!"
Guo Shuangwen opened his mouth wide when he heard Wei Jieying's words. This person who had lost both legs and was disabled was actually the young master of the Zhang family?
Even though she had heard about the young master of the Zhang family in the palace, she had heard that he had once attempted to do something bad to her at a palace banquet... Later, when her mother found out, she was so angry that she could only endure it temporarily.
"master……"
Guo Lu saw Wei Jieying walking back to Guo Shuangwen with a helpless look on his face.
"Master, Prime Minister Zhang's sister is the old emperor's most favored concubine besides Guo Shuangwen's mother. Concubine Zhang is in poor health and has rarely left the house since entering the palace. She even rarely attends palace banquets. Guo Shuangwen's mother has tried many times to take action against Concubine Zhang but has never found a suitable opportunity."
"Also, I heard that one of the pregnant concubines in the harem this time is Concubine Zhang. Master, please be careful."
Bu Ruo nodded: "It's okay, I know what's going on. Not only did they bully me, but they also wanted to target my two children. Don't worry, I will take their lives one by one. They are not good people anyway. The black energy around them is so thick that it is almost rising to the sky."
Jin Congcong on the side curled his lips when he heard this. It’s bad enough that they bullied you. You’ve bullied everyone since you were a child. You won’t stop until you’ve tortured them to death.
This is what Mr. Zhang did. He actually wanted the two little ones to be his playthings. This is like stabbing Ruo'er in the soft spot. He is simply courting death.
Wei Jieying was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Before he could say anything else, he saw a group of people walking towards him in the distance. Who else could be leading them but the Prime Minister?
When the old man came over and saw his son lying half-dead on the ground covered in blood, his eyes turned red.
"Who! Who hurt my son?"
The common people retreated in fear, except for Bu Ruo and his group who remained motionless.
"It's me."
When the Prime Minister saw Bu Ruo, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and he knew what had happened instantly without anyone else telling him.
It must be that his son was attracted by the woman's appearance again and wanted to abduct her by force, but the other party was a tough guy and actually hurt her.
"You hurt my son? Then pay with your life. Not only you, but all your nine clansmen must pay for my son's life!"
Wei Jieying almost fell to his knees. To kill the nine clans of the Princess Regent of the Great Zhou... wouldn't that mean that even the Emperor of the Great Zhou would have to die?
"Master Prime Minister, there must be a misunderstanding. You may not know this person, but who is he..."
The old man interrupted Wei Jieying before he could finish his words: "Master Wei, didn't you go to the Great Zhou? Are you back? Okay, I don't have time to reminisce with you now. I don't care who she is, today she and her nine clans will die!"
Wei Jieying almost rolled his eyes. Is this old man confused as to how to be the Prime Minister? His son is a king who is known to everyone in the imperial city, and he is also the king with the highest witchcraft. Yet he was defeated without even having the chance to fight back. Doesn't he want to think about the reason?
In fact, it wasn't that Zhang Shoufu didn't think about it, but he simply didn't have the time to think about it. As soon as he saw the son he loved since childhood lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was dead or alive, he lost his mind.
The imperial physician who had followed him knelt on the ground trembling after examining the man in white: "Reporting to the Prime Minister... Your Master... Your Master..."
