The Ming Dynasty’s Prodigal Son - Chapter 1486

[1486. Chapter 1411 Killing the Thief]

Zhang Ran’s face was pale.

He looked up at Zhu Houzhao, who was aloof.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince… is alone.

But…he acted as if no one else was around and remained calm.

Those eyes were so sharp that they were penetrating.

His eyes glanced over Zhang Ran’s body, giving Zhang Ran a sense of horror.

Zhang Ran’s Adam’s apple rolled. There was clearly only one person in front of him, but he felt as if thousands of troops were right in front of him.

The bodies of his own soldiers were still lying in a pool of blood, and there was no sound anymore.

Zhang Ran’s legs softened, and he fell to the ground with a snap.

All ambitions and hopes have become a joke at this moment.

His face was miserable, and he said in a stern voice: “I… I am unjust, I dare not rebel!”

“I am unjust…” He was heartbroken, kneeling under Zhu Houzhao’s horse, and burst into tears.

The excitement on Zhu Houzhao’s face gradually disappeared, and a pair of sharp knife-like eyes stared deeply at Zhang Ran.

“You bitch, you are so spineless!” Zhu Houzhao yelled: “You have no evil intentions, so why are you trembling and crying?”

“Yes!” Zhang Ran said quickly: “I have no spine, I am not a thing, what am I doing? No, His Highness the Crown Prince, I have received the holy grace, and I admire His Highness the Crown Prince endlessly. I… I am very excited to see His Highness the Crown Prince today… I am so excited… I… “

Zhu Houzhao at this moment, His expression turned resentful.

He wanted to throw a knife to him and make him look like a man.

But…

there is no one in the world who is a man.

He smiled coldly and didn’t even bother to pull out the knife.

From behind, a group of students came on flying horses.

They looked puzzled.

To fight or not to fight.

But seeing these officers and soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, all with their bare hands, their heads bowed, and their trembling looks, made the students’ hearts sink.

Are you excited for nothing?

Zhu Houzhao was disheartened and turned his horse: “Come here, I’ll tell you the official punishment!”

After saying that, he rode away.

Zhang Ran has realized something.

He was about to open his mouth and want to quibble.

But several students, under the command, shot like lightning, and the long swords in their hands were quickly chopped down.

This is not a scholar, he is clearly an executioner, he is familiar with the road and very professional.

Zhang Ran was suddenly bleeding all over. He covered his wound. A student from the Medical College jumped off the horse and pulled out the dagger from his waist.

The sharp edge of the dagger, without waiting for Zhang Ran’s eyes to catch it, was like a poisonous snake coming out of its hole, directly entering his heart.

He is impartial. After all, he is a medical student and has a deep understanding of the structure of the human body. He can find the location of the ventricles with his eyes closed.

“Uh…”

Zhu Houzhao heard a scream from behind him.

Zhang Ran covered his heart with the dagger handle and shook his body.

The severe pain made him suffocate, and then he felt that his life was passing quickly.

He wanted to yell, but he had no strength. At this time, angry curses seemed meaningless to him.

This may be… the most ridiculous rebellion in history. It just started and it ended in such a ridiculous way.

And I… am exactly the joke.

If I had known this, I should have been braver.

Zhang Ran fell down unwillingly.

His body twitched for the last time, and then became stiff.

Everyone in Shenji Camp felt suffocated.

They didn’t dare to look at Zhang Ran.

But he was looking at the crown prince riding a horse.

“Go and ask if anyone else wants to rebel?”

“Your Highness.” A student said with a grimace, “The student thinks there may not be.”

“How would you know if you didn’t ask?” Zhu Houzhao growled unwillingly and glanced at him. He glanced at it and retorted with dissatisfaction: “Maybe it’s true. In such a big world, there will always be a few good guys.”

The student lowered his head and burst into tears: “Your Highness, the student is not saying something depressing, he just feels… …Really not.”

Zhu Houzhao raised his head and looked at the sky. At this moment, his eyes were filled with loneliness. He pursed his lips slightly and spoke through his teeth.

“How about giving it a try with a reward of 10,000 gold? Under the heavy reward, there will be a brave man.”

The student was moved.

My heart seemed to be saying, Your Highness, this is what you said, don’t regret it.

Dozens of students behind him were also eager to give it a try and pressed the hilt of the knife at their waists. This was a good idea.

Their swords were already hungry and thirsty.

Zhu Houzhao suddenly became happy and grinned at the student who wanted to discuss it with the officers and soldiers of the Shenji Battalion: “You think I am stupid, I am just joking.”

The student suddenly showed a look of disappointment.

Zhu Houzhao cheered up: “Take the head of that bitch Zhang Ran and leave. Leave the rest to the factory guards and withdraw the troops.”

The cavalry team quickly arrived at Xishan Academy. Suddenly, the cavalry team booed. Voice.

If I had told you earlier, it would have made me happy.

I thought I could behead a few people.

When times are bad, there is no place for heroes.

Everyone came back disappointed and unwilling.

Everyone in the Shenji camp was stunned.

They were silent one by one as they sent away a group of ‘Kings of Hell’. For a long time, they couldn’t come back to their senses.

………

Fengtian Temple.

Emperor Hongzhi leaned comfortably on his royal chair.

He said to Zhu Zhixiu, wait a minute and you will know.

But this wait lasted for more than an hour.

Emperor Hongzhi was not in a hurry and drank a cup of tea slowly, looking relaxed and content.

But Zhu Zhixiu was kneeling on the ground. For him, this was inner suffering.

What does Your Majesty want to wait for?

By the way, there is also Zhang Ran…how is Zhang Ran.

Is he already accomplished?

If it succeeds and Xishan Academy is wiped out, although… His Majesty has recovered physically now, there may not be a glimmer of hope for him.

Killing those damn scholars is a fait accompli.

At least His Majesty can see how powerful the clan members are.

Wouldn’t he be afraid or frightened?

Fang Jifan’s strength comes from the academy. Without the academy, Your Majesty will protect Fang Jifan for the sake of the entire clan.

Or…

thoughts come one after another.

This is how people are, unless death is imminent, they will always deceive themselves and place many hopes on those illusory possibilities.

The hall… was silent.

No one dared to speak. Occasionally, Emperor Hongzhi coughed slightly, but it was enough to make everyone fearful.

At this time…

there were footsteps outside the palace.

The footsteps were heavy.

One step after another.

Then… the steps stopped.

A person… stood at the door of the palace, and the person said loudly: “My son… I have met my father.”

Hearing this voice, Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes and saw his son.

Zhu Houzhao has slowly entered the palace.

Then, he threw a human head to the ground: “Father…the commander of the Shenji Battalion falsely conveyed the imperial edict and attempted rebellion, and my son beheaded him…”

Everyone looked at Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao was still in high spirits, with no trace of fighting anyone on his body.

But the head he dropped on the ground was dripping with blood.

So much so that the entire palace was filled with the smell of blood.

The man’s head rolled countless times, but it rolled to the knees of Zhu Zhixiu, who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhu Zhixiu lowered his head subconsciously, and then he saw this familiar head, and the blood splashed on his body. Zhu Zhixiu’s scalp suddenly became numb and his face turned pale. He couldn’t control his emotions and let out a cry of surprise. : “Yeah…”

Please give me some monthly tickets.
