Everyone is waiting for Zhao Huan to respond to Cai Jing. If Zhao Huan really lets Cai Zheng go, maybe Dingwangfu and the Cai family will also be able to put an end to their past feud?
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhao Huan put his hands behind his back and looked at Cai Jing with a smile.
"Let Cai Zheng go? Of course it's not difficult, but I won't let him go!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was secretly shocked.
Although many people had guessed that Zhao Huan would not let Cai Zheng off easily. After all, this idiot repeatedly belittled Zhu Lian and Zheng Qingyun in front of Zhao Huan.
However, no one expected that Zhao Huan not only refused simply and neatly, but also was full of provocation.
It was like giving Cai Jing a slap in the face in public.
Even Cai Jing himself was caught off guard. He knew that Zhao Huan was crazy, but how could he be so crazy?
Before everyone could recover, Zhao Huan's voice sounded again.
"Cai Jing, you traveled all the way back to Kyoto, didn't you just come back to deal with me?"
"Given the relationship between us, the so-called struggle but not destruction, wanting to advance before suppressing, and accumulating strength are too hypocritical."
"Do you think you are a tiger returning to its den? Little did you know that this king is beating a dog behind closed doors!"
"I was worried that I wouldn't be able to attack you, but you actually took the initiative to send your grandson here. How can I, the king, be so polite?"
At this time, Cai Jing's face was extremely dark. He never expected that Zhao Huan would choose to openly declare war on him in such a scene.
Before it was over, Zhao Huan stretched out his hand and pointed at Cai Zheng.
"Cai Jing, aren't you known as one of the six prime ministers? I would like to see if, with your means and strength, you can save your grandson's life."
"There is still an hour and a half before the money is delivered to the household department."
"When the time comes, he will be arrested and taken to Kaifeng Mansion."
"Of course I won't deal with him in public, but when we get to Kaifeng Mansion, we have plenty of time to play slowly."
The most violent prince in the Song Dynasty once again showed his fangs.
Until this moment, Cai Zhengcai finally believed that all the rumors about Zhao Huan were true!
Once this guy seizes the opportunity, he will kill his opponent without showing any mercy.
Kaifeng Mansion is Zhao Huan's territory. Once you fall into it, you will have to skin it even if you don't die.
Cai Zheng was so frightened that his legs were shaking, and he almost cried and begged Cai Jing.
"Grandpa, you have to save me."
"Not to mention an hour and a half, even a day and a half, my grandson will not be able to bring the money."
"The one hundred thousand taels of silver have long been handed over to the bank and sent to various places. Can we...can our family scrape together the one hundred thousand taels of silver in cash?"
Cai Jing's face turned pale, and he slapped Cai Zheng in the face with his backhand.
"fool!"
"You still want to fight Zhao Huan with this little mental quality? He just said a few words and said something. You have explained everything. I think you really got kicked in the head by a donkey!"
"Don't say I can't get this money together. Even if I can, I will never give it to you."
"You are just a decoration for the six ministries in the capital? How can the Cai family be so virtuous and capable of possessing such a huge wealth? If His Majesty knew about it, wouldn't you be forcing me to follow in the footsteps of children?"
The reason why Cai Jing was so angry was because the situation in the Song Dynasty had changed a long time ago.
In the prosperous times, His Majesty would not care at all how much money his ministers have.
But now we are in troubled times, and it is also a critical moment when the Jin army is approaching and the country is about to fall.
Officials have a lot of money in their hands but do not support the national crisis. Even the most favored officials will be resented by His Majesty.
Cai Zheng almost cried on the spot: "Grandpa, you can't just watch your grandson fall into the hands of King Ding, right?"
Cai Jing was furious. The city that had settled down over the years had been dragged down by this waste.
He slapped Cai Zheng again with his backhand, making Cai Zheng cry and cry: "I emphasize again and again, don't do anything unnecessary, let alone add unnecessary trouble."
"What's the result? Did you listen to me?"
"Insulting the princess and being frivolous towards Zheng Qingyun, apart from making Zhao Huan hate you even more, what's the point?"
"If it's just about building a temple, Zhao Huan might let you go. If you insist on touching his woman and touching his back, if he doesn't kill you, he will no longer be Zhao Huan."
Cai Zheng was completely desperate. He thought that with Cai Jing's support, he would be able to shamelessly humiliate the people in the palace.
As a result, one thing was ignored.
When facing a prince, especially a powerful and violent prince like Zhao Huan, let alone a mere official's son, even Cai Jing himself must be polite and treat himself as a minister.
Facing Zhao Huan is equivalent to fighting half of His Majesty!
Cai Jing was too lazy to pay attention to Cai Zheng, an ignorant idiot, and turned to look at Zhao Huan, gritting his teeth.
"Your Majesty, are you really not going to let Zheng'er go?"
Zhao Huan put one hand in front of his belly, assuming an elegant posture that a prince should have, but scratched his butt with the other hand, and said anticlimactically: "If I don't let go, can you bite me?"
hiss……
Cai Jing had never been so angry in his life. He secretly swore that he would cut Zhao Huan into pieces. However, this matter had already gone so far that he could only avoid his influence.
"Since the prince must enmity with my Cai family, then it will be a long time coming!"
"Zheng'er, don't be afraid. Even if you go to Kaifeng Mansion, I will go with you. I want to see who dares to hurt you in front of you."
Zhao Huan directly hooked his fingers. Seeing this, Zhu Peng quickly picked up the golden bell sent by Cai Zheng and handed it to Zhao Huan. He said with admiration on his face: "Uncle, Changfu is not here. Do you have anything to do?
You can just let your nephew take care of it."
Zhao Huan held the golden bell in his left hand and grabbed Zhu Peng's head twice with his right hand: "Good nephew."
Under Zhu Peng's extremely excited gaze, Zhao Huan stepped forward, walked up to Cai Zheng, and directly thrust the golden bell into Cai Zheng's hand.
"Master Cai will be able to put this little golden bell to use soon."
"Aren't you coveting my king's women? When we get to Kaifeng Mansion, I will castrate you. Let me see who else you can covet."
Not to mention that Cai is a party member, even the Zhu family shudders.
You know, Zhao Huanke never bluffs. He said that if he wanted to castrate Cai Zheng, he would definitely turn Cai Zheng into a father-in-law.
In order to save his life, how could Cai Zheng care about the prestige of the Cai family?
Under the gaze of everyone, Cai Zheng's legs softened and he knelt down in front of Zhao Huan with a thud.
"I beg you, my lord, to spare my life. I will never dare to do this again."
Cai Jing on the side suddenly closed his eyes, feeling his face burning. All his fame was ruined by this trash.
Members of the Cai faction were also shocked.
"Young Master, you must not do this!"
"You are so weak, don't you make the Cai family lose their prestige?"
Cai Zheng hugged Jin Zhong and said with a sad face: "Fuck you, I don't want to be a eunuch!"
Zhu Lian, who had witnessed the whole incident, couldn't help but feel contempt for the so-called noble prince kneeling in front of Zhao Huan, begging for mercy.
"This kind of person actually wants me to remarry? It's really a shameless person."
"I really don't know where he got his confidence. He thinks he can compare with the prince."
