Chapter 429: Flag Sacrifice in the Training Ground 2
"Prince Zhao! Please kill me first! I don't want to watch my child die in front of me. I don't want to feel heartbroken again before I die!" Bumbutai pleaded.
"I promise you! Go ahead and go!" Zhao Xiaofei said, then shouted to the executioner, "Carry on the executioner and sacrifice him!"
"Carry out the operation to sacrifice the flag! Carry out the operation to sacrifice the flag! Carry out the operation to sacrifice the flag!" The soldiers behind him shouted loudly.
The executioner lifted up the two ghost-head knives covered with red silk. The red silk fluttered off, and the two ghost-head knives revealed a cold gleam.
Fulin burst into tears, and Bumbutai shouted to him, "My son, your mother is gone. In the next life, I will protect you well. Say goodbye to your mother!"
"Mother! Mother! I don't want you to leave, mother!" Fulin burst into tears.
They spoke in Manchu, and the soldiers couldn't understand what they were saying, but they all knew it was the mother and son's final farewell. But no one felt any sadness, because the prince's training team had said that the Han Chinese had suffered so much, and it was what they deserved. We have been very tolerant, and they wouldn't earn a single tear from these people here.
The executioner held the ghost-head knife tightly, two soldiers held Bumbutai down, and one soldier grabbed Bumbutai's hair. As long as the executioner cut off her neck, he could immediately lift up the head and show it to everyone.
Bumbutai had no strength to resist. She closed her eyes quietly and waited for the final moment.
The executioner took a bowl of wine, drank it, and then spurted it onto the dagger. This was the executioner offering the dagger, and the wine dripped down. He slowly swung the dagger, and with a flash of light, Bumbutai's head fell off. The soldier who had been holding her hair picked up the head and placed it on a plate.
Fulin, on the other side, cried out heartbreakingly, "Mother!"
The other executioner did the same thing, adding, "Don't worry! I'll reunite you with your mother right away! My knife is sharp, so I'm known as Quick Knife Liu. I guarantee you won't feel too much pain!"
Fulin looked at Quick Knife Liu with a fierce look, and then said in Chinese: "If I become a ghost, I will find you! I will not let you Han people go!"
"Hahahaha! I've killed hundreds of people, but no ghost has come looking for me. Go away!" With a swing of his knife, Liu Guitou chopped off a child's head. The soldier grabbed Fulin's rat-tail braid and put the head on a plate.
The two heads were placed in front of the military flag as a sacrifice. At this time, Zhao Xiaofei rode on his horse, holding up his sword and shouting, "The Ming army is mighty!"
The soldiers below also shouted: "The Ming army is mighty!"
"The Ming army is mighty!" Zhao Xiaofei.
"The Ming army is mighty!"
After three times in a row, Zhao Xiaofei took a plate from the eunuch in the palace with three big seals on it.
At this time, three men rode out from the Kenan Army formation. These three men were Gu Mancang, Li Deliang and Mao Jiu. They later joined the Kenan Army and trained in it for many years.
Mao Jiu and Gu Mancang had been by Wan Shan and General Zhou's side for a long time, and had basically learned everything they needed to learn. After experiencing the trials and tribulations of battles both large and small, they were now high-ranking generals in the Kenan Army.
Li Deliang joined later and is performing well now. Zhao Xiaofei promoted him as an exception. Li Deliang knelt in front of Zhao Xiaofei and swore to be loyal to the prince until death.
The three men saluted Zhao Xiaofei and took the seals one by one. Zhao Xiaofei said, "Don't betray the court's trust! Whoever causes trouble this time will be held accountable!"
"We will never let the prince down!" the three answered at the same time.
"It is to live up to the trust of the court!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"Yes!" After saying this, the three of them turned their horses around and returned to their respective formations.
Zhao Xiaofei looked at the soldiers, the infantry, cavalry, and artillery formations. He drew his sword again and shouted, "Move!"
The various formations began to change and left the training ground in an orderly manner.
Not far away, Princess Kunxing and Zhaoren were standing on the top of the city wall watching all this.
"Sister, my husband really wants you to see him off. Why don't you go and see him off?" Zhaoren asked.
"As long as you have brains, no one can lose this battle. With the best weapons and the best soldiers, if he can't win, he'd better not be a prince." Princess Kunxing said coldly.
"Didn't my husband just marry Miss Jiang? Is it necessary for me, sister? As your husband's wife, we should support him." Zhaoren said.
"Am I a jealous woman? Kou Baimen, Li Sihong, and Shen Yunying, who am I jealous of?" Princess Kunxing said.
"Then why did you treat him like this?" Zhao Ren asked.
"Because the more I get to know him, the more disappointed I am with him!" said Princess Kunxing.
"What did he disappoint us in? Who saved us? Who saved the Ming Dynasty? Who allowed Cixiong to ascend the throne? Isn't this enough?" Zhaoren questioned his sister for the first time.
Princess Kunxing turned around and said coldly, "If I tell you that he could have saved my father's life, allowed Cixiong to live a better life, and allowed our family to live happily, but he didn't do that, would you still love him?"
"This is all hypothetical. He was just a consort back then. Even if he had the ability, who would let him do anything? The emperor and the ministers would just be wary of him. If he did anything out of line, they would have him thrown into prison," Zhaoren said excitedly. She didn't understand when her sister became like this. Without her husband, they wouldn't have the glory they have today.
"At least he can give father some military expenses. He has made a lot of money from the Ming Dynasty. If he donated a little more, father would have gone to those stingy ministers or even the Earl of Jiading to borrow money? He also allowed a bitch like Qin Xiaomi to be with Cixiong. Who is Qin Xiaomi? She is his ex-wife's sister! He first abandoned female official Jiang in his hometown and then married Qin. Later, Qin and her sister committed a crime, and he let the two women take refuge here. Now he thinks female official Jiang is good and wants to take her in. I am so blind that I actually married such a person." Princess Kunxing became more and more excited as she spoke, and tears slowly flowed down her face at the end.
"No, my husband is not that kind of person! He is not that kind of person! You are talking nonsense! You are talking nonsense!" Zhaoren didn't believe it at all and shook his head as he spoke.
"Lady Jiang told me! They have been together since they were young." Princess Kunxing said.
"It must be that bitch named Jiang who said that. She is just trying to sow discord! Sister, don't be bewitched by that bitch!" Zhaoren said.
"I also hope that these are all false, but I have seen the evidence. It's all true! It's all true!" Princess Kunxing murmured.
"I won't believe anything you say! I'm going to find him and ask him clearly!" Princess Zhaoren said and ran down the city wall.
Princess Kunxing immediately scolded the eunuch not far away, "Stop Princess Zhaoren for me!"
