Upon hearing Zhu Yunwen's words, the King of Baoxiang smiled awkwardly, for there was some truth to it.
Doesn't the King of Baoxiang know what kind of person the Prime Minister of Baoxiang is?
Not only was he aware of it, but he also understood it very well. It seemed even more impossible that he would get into a dispute with two ordinary citizens of the Ming Dynasty on the street to uphold the dignity of the Baoxiang Kingdom.
Conversely, they could actually abduct women on the street.
So the King of Baoxiang immediately said to Zhu Yunwen:
"Your Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, I failed to consider these aspects in this matter, which has caused you a very bad influence. I apologize to you here and hope that Your Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty will not mind."
We should maintain good relations and cooperation between our two countries. Let's not let such a small matter damage our feelings. After all, I myself was previously misled by this wretched man.”
Zhu Yunwen said:
"Really? But you just said that the woman next to me defeated dozens of soldiers, which is a bit unbelievable."
The king of Baoxiang Kingdom gave a wry smile and said:
"I was indeed led by the nose before, and I was too naive. Now that I think about it, the people of the Ming Dynasty are not ordinary, let alone a woman who can stay by your side and protect you. It is not surprising that she has such strength."
Zhu Yunwen laughed, thinking to himself, "You've finally figured things out."
However, at this moment, the prime minister's son, worried about being punished, spoke up again, hoping to change the situation.
And immediately said:
"Even if my father was wrong, it certainly didn't warrant his life, did it? Your Highness the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, how can you justify taking his life over this matter?"
Zhu Yunwen looked at the prime minister's son as if he were a fool, and then spoke domineeringly:
"Putting aside the fact that you have no evidence to say that I killed the Prime Minister of Baoxiang Kingdom, even if you did have evidence, he disrespected me in the street, tried to abduct my Crown Prince's wife, and even insulted and provoked me..."
In my Great Ming Dynasty, even killing Zhu's entire clan would be considered lenient. What, if I were to kill him for this matter, would your Baoxiang Kingdom dare to hold me accountable? Are you truly preparing to launch a war between our two countries?"
Upon hearing Zhu Yunwen's words, the prime minister's son was speechless.
The King of Baoxiang Kingdom hurriedly spoke up:
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince of the Great Ming Dynasty, please do not be angry. My Prime Minister of Baoxiang Kingdom was at fault first, and he has now received his just deserts. Moreover, there is indeed no evidence to suggest that you killed him. Let this matter end here."
Furthermore, the Prime Minister's son, who sows discord and attempts to frame others, fabricating false evidence and false witnesses, is utterly despicable and is an accomplice to his father. Guards, drag him out and behead him immediately.
The prime minister's son was so frightened that his face turned pale. He was truly regretful, regretting why he had done such a harmful thing to others and himself.
It was too late for regrets now. No matter how much he begged for mercy, it was to no avail. He was dragged away by the soldiers and killed immediately.
Afterwards, the king of Baoxiang Kingdom repeatedly apologized to Zhu Yunwen.
After all, it was the Prime Minister of Baoxiang who made a mistake in this matter, and then he started to frame the Ming Dynasty, and even dragged Zhu Yunwen into it. If he didn't apologize quickly, he would really offend the Ming Dynasty, and the consequences would be far more serious than he would gain.
Furthermore, before this, Baoxiang Kingdom had been trying to curry favor with Zhu Yunwen, hoping to establish good relations with the Ming Dynasty through Zhu Yunwen and gain some benefits for Baoxiang Kingdom.
If we offend Zhu Yunwen at this time, all our previous efforts will be in vain.
As for the other princes present, they watched the spectacle with smiles on their faces, finding it quite amusing.
The prince of Chechi Kingdom, not wanting to miss such an opportunity, stepped forward and said to Zhu Yunwen:
"So, the woman beside you seems to be quite skilled in martial arts, managing to injure dozens of soldiers."
Zhu Yunwen glanced at the prince of Chechi Kingdom, then asked:
Would you like to give it a try?
The prince of Chechi Kingdom snorted and said:
"As a prince of a country, I naturally do not like to do such crude things. However, I also have a highly skilled guard under my command. Why don't I let my guard compete with the woman beside you and see if she is really that powerful?"
Zhu Yuntong smiled. He might not be so confident about other things, but if someone wanted to have a martial arts competition with Zhao Qingzhu, Zhu Yuntong was not afraid at all.
Furthermore, since the prince of Chechi Kingdom had repeatedly tried to provoke Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunwen naturally did not want to miss such an opportunity to humiliate him.
So he said:
"Since you're interested, then of course there's no problem. It's also a good opportunity to prove to everyone that the Crown Prince's Consort of our Great Ming Dynasty truly possesses such strength."
