Chapter 38 Stormy Night!

 Step——

Step——

Step——

Sitting on the carriage, Zhu Yunxuan heard bursts of footsteps behind him.

The street was very quiet. When the people saw this scene, they all said nothing and gave way to the road in fear.

Jinyiwei was a terrifying existence in the Ming Dynasty.

Usually, just seeing one or two people can scare a baby to stop crying.

It is extremely rare to see such a large-scale deployment like today.

The people were surprised at what happened, but they did not dare to get close to see the situation.

The large group of people went to Sima Sheng's house like this.

The commander of the Jin Yiwei ordered Jiang Yu to ride on the horse and follow the carriage without saying a word.

Zhu Yunxuan opened the curtain on the carriage.

Outside, the world is in a state of silence.

Not long ago, the sky was clear, but now it is covered with dark clouds, and a heavy rain is brewing.

The setting sun has set, but the sky is not completely dark yet.

A suffocating murderous aura filled the air.

The footsteps behind him were like a death knell that struck without listening.

The whistling wind flowed past his ears.

Boom!

There was a deafening thunder in the sky. The thunder was so loud that it was like the sky and the earth were shattering.

Soon after, we arrived at Sima Sheng’s mansion.

The carriage stopped, and the footsteps behind it stopped in an instant.

Jiang Wei got off his horse, stepped forward in person, opened the curtain, and Zhu Yunxu stepped out.

Looking up, the plaque with silver hooks and iron paintings seemed to be covered with a strong smell of blood at this moment.

Zhu Yunxuan took a deep breath.

What should be faced must be faced.

Until now, he still doesn't quite understand why Lao Zhu asked him to do this.

If you want to raid Sima Sheng's house, just send any minister here.

Just a sixth-grade Yuanwailang.

The Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate can all do this.

Even if he intends to send Jin Yiwei to handle the matter, Jiang Yu can complete the task without sending an imperial grandson.

Not to mention, he is only seven years old.

If it is said that they intend to make him the grandson, so they test him.

It doesn’t seem right either.

Zhu Yunxuan clearly remembers that when Zhu Biao was alive, Lao Zhu was not willing to let him do murder, but did it himself.

Lao Zhu wants the person who succeeds to the throne to be a benevolent king.

He can't understand.

Zhu Yuanzhang was originally a man of great talent and strategy, and his scheming was far beyond that of ordinary people.

Even though he is old now, he still has the wisdom of an old fox and the power of a tiger.

Perhaps, unknowingly, you will fall into the trap designed by him.

Facing this old man, Zhu Yunzhen did not dare to show any slightness.

Even if the other party is his biological grandfather.

Even if he dotes on himself very much.

Zhu Yunzhen's heart sank little by little.

Now that we have traveled to the royal family, death and bloodshed are inevitable.

He made a conscious effort and waved his hand.

Hundreds of royal guards immediately dispersed in an orderly manner, surrounding the Sima family's mansion.

Bang!

A guard in Jin Yi suddenly kicked open the door of Sima's house.

Dozens of royal guards filed in.

Zhu Yunxuan stepped into Sima Mansion with his hands behind his back.

The mansion was already in a state of chaos.

Everyone's eyes were filled with fear, and their bodies were trembling, as if they knew a bad fate was about to come.

Sima Sheng did not resist or speak. He watched the Jin Yiwei enter the mansion. He took the servants in the mansion and knelt on the ground.

But there were also people who kowtowed and cried and begged for mercy.

Zhu Yunxuan gritted his teeth, closed his eyes slightly, and said to Jiang Yu next to him: "Declare the decree!"

Jiang Wei took out the imperial edict and read: "Sima Sheng, you are so courageous. However, a mere sixth-grade foreign minister dares to embezzle millions of taels of silver. This is all the people's wealth. How can you be so cruel and dare to drink the people's money?"

Bloody! You deserve death!"

"Jinyiwei immediately sent people to confiscate all Sima Sheng's property, and everyone in the mansion was immediately taken into custody."

"Men, old and young, should be skinned if they should be skinned, and all should be chopped into pieces if they should be chopped into pieces. The female family members have been slaves for generations, I appreciate this!"

Zhu Yunzhen was slightly startled when he heard the content of the imperial edict.

I have heard for a long time that Lao Zhu likes to write imperial edicts in vernacular, but he did not expect that it would actually be so vernacular.

The content is murderous.

This shows how much Zhu Yuanzhang hates corrupt officials.

Everyone in Sima Sheng's family felt as if they had been struck by lightning, kneeling there dumbly, unable to even cry.

Sima Sheng's lips kept trembling, his face had no color, and he fell to the ground with a plop.

"Take custody!"

Zhu Yunxuan gave a faint order.

At this moment, a bad premonition suddenly came to my mind.

It felt like walking in a dark jungle and being stared at by a wild beast.

Whoosh——

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and Zhu Yunzhen's pupils suddenly dilated!

He saw a hidden weapon flying from the front left.

Time seems to slow down extremely slowly at this moment.

He could clearly see the sharp edge of the hidden arrow, and even saw the ripples in the air stirred up by the hidden weapon.

Everything happened in an instant, and Zhu Yunzhen had no time to dodge.

The young body seems numb.

I can only watch helplessly as the hidden arrow strikes.

He really didn't expect that such a change would happen.

There is actually a hidden master in the Sima Sheng family who wants to assassinate him?

Zhu Yunxuan felt that he was probably going to die.

The hidden arrow came so fast and at such a close distance that the guard beside him had no time to react.

He also doesn't know martial arts.

Not to mention that this body is only seven years old.

In the midst of lightning and flint, he suddenly heard Jiang Gu shout lowly, and the rusty spring knife was suddenly unsheathed.

Zheng——

The blade trembled, and an arc like a meteor flashed away.

Ding!

The hidden arrow that was shot at Zhu Yunxuan had already been chopped off by him with one strike.

Jiang Wei kept sharpening his blade, and his figure and the blade almost became one, rushing forward.

Click.

The knife stabbed into the throat of the archer.

Seal the throat with one knife!

Clean and tidy!

Blood spurted out.

Bang!

The man's figure fell heavily to the ground, already lifeless.

Looking at the hidden weapon on the ground and the fallen figure, Zhu Yunxuan couldn't help but swallow.

A gust of wind blew by, and he felt a chill all over his body.

If Jiang Wei hadn't acted quickly enough, he would have met the King of Hell by now.

There was blood dripping before my eyes, and the scene was extremely bloody.

Boom!

There was another roar of thunder, making Zhu Yunxuan's vision flicker.

The heavy rain poured down instantly.

In the wind and rain, Jiang Yu's back held up his long sword and said loudly: "The Sima family has a hidden killer who intends to murder the current emperor's grandson. He is guilty of conspiracy and will be killed without mercy!"

Brush!

Brush!

Brush!

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of Jinyi guards drew their swords almost simultaneously, and then rushed towards everyone in Sima Sheng's family.

"Kill!"

The sword flashed.

Above the sky, there was lightning, thunder, and rumbling.

A massacre began.

Zhu Yunxuan saw that Sima Sheng, who was slumped on the ground and had no time to get up, was slashed in the throat by a guard in uniform.

Blood is like a strange flower blooming in the rain.

Cries and screams were mixed in the falling rain, like a nightmare, constantly echoing in the ears.

The red blood dyed the ground red and flowed everywhere with the rain.

Old people, women, children... were all killed mercilessly by the blade.

Cries and screams were mixed in the falling rain, like a nightmare, constantly echoing in the ears.

The rain fell harder and harder, drowning everything, but it could not wash away the blood and the pungent smell of blood on the ground.

Zhu Yunzhen stood there, the rain on his head was blocked by an umbrella.

Several Jinyi guards surrounded him and protected him firmly.

The rain curtain fell in front of his eyes. Zhu Yunxuan looked at it all with no expression on his face, feeling the cruelty of this world.

The fear before faded away little by little.

His expression slowly changed from pity, fear, and fear to numbness, and then to determination.

Boom!

There was another thunder, deafening.
