Chapter 1222: The Prince, Terrible
Zhang Yang leaned close to Zhang Ren's ear and said, "Because I am the fifth prince, the legitimate fifth prince, and only I can succeed to the throne. My promise is more useful than yours!"
Wang Ju lowered her voice and asked, "What's the situation now?"
Zhou Shuren's nervousness completely disappeared. He stretched his head to look at the prince's position, just in time to meet the prince's eyes, and then quickly retracted his neck.
Prince, "."
At this moment, he was completely convinced by Lord Zhou!
The prince felt that the time was about right and everything outside the palace should have been cleaned up, so he lifted his foot and gave Prince Qi a lift.
The King of Qi was watching the play with great interest. He was kicked and fell on the steps. The King of Chu was quick and grabbed the King of Qi's sleeve, and there was a sound of clothes being torn.
The King of Chu held a piece of cloth in his hand and said, "Sorry, don't look at me, you guys continue."
The King of Qi's face darkened, and the entire set of soft armor he was wearing was exposed.
The King of Chu was not innocent either. He did not expect to be so lucky as he happened to pull the sleeve that was cut by the knife.
The prince raised his hands and covered his face. Was the third brother here to make fun of him today? But what could he do if he just wanted to laugh?
Zhang Yang was really a fool if he couldn't react. He asked in a sharp voice, "You, you are not poisoned?"
The poison is very strong. No matter how healthy your body is, you can't resist it for so long. You should have died from the poison long ago.
King Qi slowly stood up, and the soft armor he was wearing was more conspicuous. "It seems that you are not poisoned?"
The King of Chu coughed and said, "Second brother, remove the word 'seemingly' and give me a positive answer."
The King of Qi stared at the King of Chu coldly, then raised his foot and kicked the King of Chu. He was so rude.
Zhang Yang still had no idea what was going on. He rushed to find his father-in-law who had just delivered the message, but he had already disappeared. He was so arrogant just now, but now he was so scared. He kept backing away, "You set a trap for me today."
King Qi was very venomous, "Do you know how painful it is for us to watch your performance with disgust?"
Zhang Yang's pupils constricted. The disgust in the eyes of the King of Qi and others was not concealed at all. Zhang Yang hated it. He had obviously won. Right, looking at the civil and military officials sitting on the ground, "Haha, I haven't lost yet. I still have gunpowder and antidote. At worst, I will drag everyone to be buried with me."
At this time, the house was filled with a foul smell, and people kept covering their noses and vomiting. It was too smelly and too disgusting.
Zhou Shuren was also filled with malice and could smell it even with his nose covered.
Zhang Jinghong covered his nose and came in carrying the burning porcelain basin.
Zhang Ren was confused when he saw this scene. Zhang Jinghong did not join them.
Seeing that everyone had the strength to run, Zhang Jinghong handed the porcelain basin in his hand to his father-in-law behind him. After the smell had dissipated a little, Zhang Jinghong took off the handkerchief covering his nose and said to everyone, "The poison has been solved."
Some people still don't believe it. They felt weak just now, but now after jumping a few times, they do have strength again.
Wang Ju jumped a few times vigorously, and then saw Zhou Shuren still sitting there lazily, gritted his teeth, "You are not poisoned."
Zhou Shuren, "Yeah."
Wang Ju, "."
Zhou Shuren was naturally not poisoned. Zhang Jinghong was threatened and went to him. He still gave him poison every day, but Zhou Shuren pretended to drink it. Even though the emperor said there was an antidote, he didn't believe it!
Xiao Qing's voice rang behind Zhou Shuren's ears, "You're not poisoned!"
Zhou Shuren turned his head and said, "If the emperor doesn't allow me to say it, I can't say it."
What if the acting is not like the real one, wouldn't that make people suspicious? So it's better for everyone to be poisoned.
Xiao Qing laughed, "I am old and frightened. I will trouble Lord Zhou from the Ministry of Revenue."
Zhou Shuren, "."
Qiu Yangang came over and heard this. He said quietly, "I'm also injured. This arm won't heal if I don't take care of it for ten days or half a month."
Zhou Shuren, "!!"
Zhang Yang saw that all the ministers were fine, and he went crazy, shouting, "Kill them for me."
Zhang Ren had already reached his father's side and lowered his voice, "We can still escape. We still have a way out."
Zhang Wuxi stared at the dragon chair. He was just one step away from touching it. He was unwilling to give up. "Kill Zhang Yang, and we still have a chance."
"No, you don't stand a chance."
Zhang Wuxi and Zhang Ren turned around and stared at the prince who had stood behind them without them knowing when, as if they had seen a ghost.
The prince smiled, "Don't get excited, there are still surprises."
The prince shouted loudly, "I respectfully ask your father to take charge of the situation."
The King of Qi and the King of Chu followed closely behind and shouted.
The ministers in the hall were stunned. They followed the direction of the prince and saw the screen that had been blocking the way was removed. The screen was dark gold in color and was located in the corner, so no one noticed it.
The emperor, along with Eunuch Liu and others, walked up the steps step by step, stood in front of the dragon throne, raised his hand and touched the dragon throne, "The dragon throne you want is still mine."
The tone of voice sounded as if he was complaining that the enemy was too weak.
Zhang Wuxi and others didn't know whether to vomit blood or not, or they just couldn't believe that the emperor was fine.
At this time, Rong Enqing came in wearing armor, which was covered in blood. "All the thieves in the palace have been killed."
What is there to not understand at this time? Everything is under the control of the emperor. Everything is a game, and the emperor is the one who plays chess from beginning to end.
Rong Enqing's long sword was dripping with blood, and his eyes fell on Zhang Ren.
Zhang Ren choked up blood, but he swallowed it hard, "You didn't fall for it."
Rong Enqing, "I never fell into your trap from the beginning to the end. The Fourth Master recognized you as soon as you appeared."
Zhang Ren was as confident in his plan as he was now. "No, it's impossible. My plan is perfect."
The prince made a subtle rebuttal, "Zhang Yang had planned it perfectly."
Zhang Ren really vomited blood this time, and his heart was attacked. He fell to the ground.
Zhou Shuren used to not believe that someone would vomit blood when he became popular, but now he believes it. Zhang Ren's face has turned pale, and it is obvious that he is so angry that he is about to die.
All the thieves with bows and arrows in the hall have been captured.
Zhou Shuren was finally able to stand up and shook off his official uniform. Well, there was no blood stain on it. Today was full of thrills, but the result was good.
Zhang Wuxi saw that his son was dying, so he hurried to support him, "Son, what's wrong with you?"
The prince smiled and explained, "The poisoned 100,000 taels of silver ended up in Zhang Ren's hands, and his anger triggered the poison in his body."
Zhang Ren's eyes widened and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth again.
Zhang Yang saw that he had failed. The bamboo tube filled with gunpowder did not explode. Zhang Yang kept muttering, "Why didn't it explode? Why?"
The King of Qi heard it right away. "Two batches of gunpowder were transported to the capital. The gunpowder from Xuzhou was swapped in Xuzhou, and the other batch of gunpowder was replaced in the capital. The gunpowder in the bamboo tubes was all fake."
The prince saw that Zhang Ren had heard it, and fearing that Zhang Ren would not hear what was happening next, he said quietly, "By the way, your old nest, the island overseas, has now been razed to the ground by artillery shells."
Zhang Ren finally spat out a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground, and stopped breathing.
The prince's tone was full of regret, "You're dead now, I still have something important to say!"
Zhou Shuren, "."
I'm scared, I'm scared!
In the new year, the sheep wishes everyone a happy new year, good luck in the year of the ox, good luck in everything, good health, abundant wealth, and constant smiles~~~
