Chapter 660: Death of King Chu

Tianlao is one of the most important prisons in the Zhou Dynasty and is heavily guarded.

Many important prisoners were imprisoned here.

Of course, its geographical location is more powerful than its defense.

Across the street to the east is the headquarters of Liumen, and to the north is the Shenhou Mansion.

Once someone wants to do anything to Tianlao, experts from the Six Gates and Shenhou Mansion will rush to Tianlao as soon as possible.

Now the Tianlao is still guarded by experts from Xichang. Yuhuatian was ordered to preside over the case of King Chu's regicide and rebellion. The Tianlao is also temporarily taken over by Xichang.

But this is also the reason why Zhao Zheng dared to come here to save King Chu.

Among the Six Dark Parts, Shenhou Mansion and Liumen are the two that have the best relationship with Dali Temple.

The Shenhou Mansion and Dali Temple worked together, and the head of the Shenhou Mansion, Zhuge Zhengwo, the Sixty-Fifth Shenhou, even helped out in the north.

One of the four famous arresters in the Shenhou Mansion, Wu Wu Sheng Yayu also relied on Yang Qingyuan for medical treatment.

For the Shenhou Mansion, which is not so strict in hierarchy, Dali Temple is consistent with their style of doing things, and it has the kindness to treat Sheng Yayu. The head of the family, Zhuge Zhengwo, has made good friends with the top leader of Dali Temple, Yang Qingyuan, so Dali Temple will be close to him.

People are no different.

As for the six doors, not to mention, it’s a proper Dali Temple boy!

Originally, the six doors belonged to the Ministry of Punishment.

Many officials in the court looked down upon people in the martial arts world, but in this era of extraordinary martial arts, martial arts masters were indispensable to the stability of the court.

The two factories in the East and West were originally eunuchs; the Jin Yiwei were the emperor's personal soldiers; the person in charge of the Shenhou Mansion was the instructor of the Royal Forest Army, and he had both civil and military merits in rescuing the emperor; Zhu Wuwu, the controller of Hulong Villa, was the younger brother of the late emperor.

These people are either in the chain of contempt, or they cannot be despised.

Therefore, the six doors became the object of contempt among civil servants.

Regarding the six doors, using them but not respecting them is the attitude of the civil servants of the imperial court. But it is also reasonable.

After all, the civil and military divisions of the Great Zhou Dynasty were divided, and most civil servants looked down upon nobles. Only Confucians like Li Cheng'en and Yang Qingyuan were regarded as one of their own by the civil servant group.

As for the six-door warrior, just be a thug!

Even Liu Dufeng, the chief catcher of Six Doors, was treated like this.

However, after the restoration of Dali Temple, although the six gates were still nominally controlled by the Ministry of Punishment, they actually became the people of Dali Temple.

Dali Temple not only treats the brothers of Liumen as human beings, but also increases their salaries, adds subsidies, and gives year-end bonuses, and also helps solve the family worries of the brothers of Liumen.

If you have six doors, who are you facing?!

Before Zhao Zheng set out, he asked Liu Wangshu to say hello to the people at Shenhou Mansion and Liumen.

It’s not that the two families are bending the law for personal gain, I just want Liumenmen and Shenhou Mansion to act more slowly when they receive the news, leaving more time for Zhao Zheng to evacuate.

There is naturally no problem with Liumen. After all, it is almost becoming a Dali Temple, and Liumen is a branch temple. Now that Liu Wangshu has spoken, the temporary person in charge of Liumen naturally understands the meaning.

In order to maintain law and order recently, the Six Gates are short of manpower and cannot support the Tianlao immediately.

The Shenhou Mansion also agreed, not just because of its personal relationship with Dali Temple. But the Shenhou Mansion, like most of the courtiers, sympathized with the wronged King of Chu.

Although this prince was a little unruly and engaged in smuggling on water transport, for a nobleman from Tianhuang, these things were tolerated by them. However, when the Great Zhou Dynasty was in crisis, King Chu went into battle. On behalf of the emperor, he visited Jinyang in person to encourage him.

Morale, fighting side by side with Yu Yanyi is a big plus.

The prince defended the country and fought against the bandits east of Jinyang. This should have been a good story.

Therefore, Tie Youxia, the temporary head of Shenhou Mansion, agreed to Liu Wangshu's request.

And Tie Youxia still owes Yang Qingyuan a favor! Thanks to Yang Qingyuan's Taiyi Mianzhang Essence, Tie Youxia's martial arts has taken a further step. Now he has seen the road to the cave. Within five years,

There is hope in Dongxuan.

After solving the problem of reinforcements, what Zhao Zheng needs to face is the West Factory that takes over Tianlao at this moment.

So he chose an opportunity when the West Factory inspected the palace.

After all, the King of Chu is the legitimate son of the late emperor, a prince above the first rank.

To raid his palace, Xichang Factory Superintendent Yu Huatian would definitely go out in person. As expected, Yu Huatian went to the Chu Palace in person today. As soon as he left, Zhao Zheng's figure appeared outside the prison.

It was almost lunch time. Zhao Zheng stopped the person who came to deliver the meal, asked him for details, changed into his clothes, and pushed the meal cart into the prison.

"Why didn't Lao Wang come today?"

The food in the Prison Prison is not very particular. It is just three big buckets, one bucket of rice, one bucket of vegetables, and one bucket of soup.

If you want to have a good meal, you can only count on the meal before you die.

After Zhao Zheng put on makeup, he said with an honest face, "My master flashed his waist when he was loading buckets, so he had no choice but to ask me to deliver food for him."

The jailer had no doubts about Zhao Zheng's words, and the people in Xichang didn't express any doubts either.

Zhao Zheng then served the meals one by one and sent them to the prisoners.

It was not until the end that Zhao Zheng carried the food to the cell where King Chu was.

"The food delivery guy!"

"You..." Before the guard in the West Factory could speak, Zhao Zheng gave instructions and knocked down a few people.

"Zhao..." King Chu was stunned for a moment when he saw this.

"Your Highness, listen to me. I am here to save you. Please don't shirk your Majesty. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to escape, but it will also cost my life. The princess has been rescued by Her Highness and is waiting for her reunion!

"

There is no such thing as a quack-like saying: If I don’t leave, you will leave quickly.

Zhao Zheng took advantage of King Chu as soon as he opened his mouth.

The King of Chu valued feelings and brotherly loyalty, so naturally he would not let himself drag down Zhao Zheng, a good brother.

He also couldn't worry about Princess Chu. Although he didn't agree with Zhao Zheng's risky move, the deal was already done and he could only try his best to cooperate with Zhao Zheng's plan.

Then the King of Chu put on the clothes of a factory guard and hid in the soup vat.

The plan went very smoothly, and Zhao Zheng was about to push the food cart towards the door of the prison.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Stop!"

A man holding a crutch sword stopped in front of Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng's heart slowly sank to the bottom, he was discovered...

------------------

In the northern border, Tianma gathers.

In the originally peaceful inn, the sound of heartbeat suddenly sounded.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Zhao Min, who was handling official duties next door, immediately noticed something unusual in Yang Qingyuan's room.

Zhao Min immediately rushed to Yang Qingyuan's room with Taoist Baishu.

When they pushed the door open and entered, the two of them were startled by the scene in front of them.

Yang Qingyuan, who was in fetal breath, was curled up in the middle of the bed, like a baby.

However, the vitality of heaven and earth surrounds Yang Qingyuan, so rich that it almost condenses into substance.

Taoist Baishu is a master in the realm of heaven and earth, so he can naturally feel it; while Zhao Min possesses the blood of Lingguang Immortal, which is extremely miraculous and comparable to innateness, and is also extremely sensitive to the vitality of heaven and earth.

"Senior Baishu, what is going on?!"

Bai Shang scratched his head in embarrassment, even though he escaped twice with his life from Zhang Sanfeng; even though he lived a long life and was the elder among the masters of the evil sect; even though he was one of the few masters in the realm of heaven and earth at that time.

But to be honest, he didn't know, what the hell was this?

The Wudang Zhenwu lineage has never been able to be judged by common sense.

What?! You mean the Seven Heroes of Wudang?! Those are just seven flaws of Zhang Sanfeng. This unfathomable young man in front of you is the real direct descendant of Wudang.

However, although Bai Shang didn't know what happened, he could roughly guess one, two, or three based on his martial arts skills.

Yang Qingyuan should be using the vitality of heaven and earth to simulate the situation in the mother's womb.

When he comes out of seclusion, it will be the time when he is truly innate from the inside out.

------------------

In the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, Zhao Zheng was stationed with a sword. There was blood seeping from his right arm holding the sword, but he still firmly protected the King of Chu behind him.

The swordsman in front of him who wields a crutch sword has the best swordsmanship of the good and evil families, and his internal strength is also behind him. There is a gray-robed man plundering the formation beside him.

Zhao Zheng couldn't see through this person's depth at all, but his energy had been locking Zhao Zheng vaguely, making it impossible for him to fight against the enemy with all his strength.

It was only a hundred moves, but he was already injured by the swordsman.

"You are a vicious thief, but you still have some loyalty. You are still protecting your master."

The person who spoke was none other than Jin Zhuliu.

The prince expected that someone would make a fuss about the imprisoned King of Chu, so he asked Jin Zhuliu to guard the place. As expected, the fish took the bait.

Zhao Zheng knew in his heart that he might end up here today.

He couldn't deal with Jin Zhuliu alone, plus an ignorant gray-robed man. With Zhao Zheng's martial arts, he was determined not to be able to kill him, let alone the King of Chu with him.

When Zhao Zheng was thinking about finding a way out for King Chu, the King of Chu behind him patted Zhao Zheng.

Although he didn't speak, Zhao Zheng understood the meaning in King Chu's eyes.

Thank you for saving the princess.

Then, King Chu walked up to Zhao Zheng and said, "Isn't Zhu Zhankun just trying to kill me?! Is there any need to kill so many people?!"

Suddenly, the King of Chu stabbed his own throat with the extremely sharp pieces of porcelain he had hidden on his body.

The attack was so fast that neither Jin Zhuliu nor Zhao Zheng could stop it in time.

When Jin Zhuliu wanted to take action, the porcelain piece had already penetrated King Chu's throat.

Looking at the King of Chu who committed suicide in front of his eyes, Jin Zhuliu sighed, "Although you killed the king and father, committed evil crimes, and poisoned the people, you still have some blood. It's a pity that you went astray."

Although he admired the King of Chu's demeanor, it did not affect Jin Zhuliu's view of the King of Chu - he was unfaithful and unfilial, had personal relationships with generals, smuggled water transport, and poisoned the people.

Seeing his friend die in front of him, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but shed tears in his eyes. In the end, he failed to save his best friend, but instead caused him to die in such an embarrassing manner.

Just when Jin Zhuliu was about to capture Zhao Zheng, the man in gray robe next to him suddenly took action. With only three moves, he restrained the injured Zhao Zheng, although a sword penetrated his body.

"you!"

Jin Zhuliu glared at the man in gray robe who made a sneak attack.

Although Zhao Zheng worked for the tyrannical King of Chu, he was indeed a loyal man. If he could be persuaded to join the prince and serve the people of the world, it might be an opportunity to change his ways.

He did not expect that the gray-robed man would kill Zhao Zheng directly.

"This thief has done many evil things and deserves to be punished for his crimes. What?! Mr. Jin has a different opinion?!"

Jin Zhuliu snorted coldly and walked away.

He followed his father's temperament and was extremely stubborn. Although he knew that what the man in gray robe said was reasonable, he did not agree with his approach.

However, what Jin Zhuliu didn't know was that after he left, Zhao Zheng's body was slowly drying up.

The essence of his flesh and blood is being absorbed by the gray-robed man's sword.

The originally ordinary sword was now emitting a faint red light.



---------------

"The king of Chu, Zhu Zhankun, committed regicide and his father, a crime that cannot be punished. He committed suicide in the heavenly prison. I thought of my brotherhood and buried him with the honors of a duke. His posthumous name was 'Rou'."

An imperial edict from the new monarch Zhu Zhankun ended the confrontation between the ministers headed by Yu Yanyi and the new monarch.

Countless ministers felt the new king's wanton behavior and wrote letters begging for his body.

The resignations even filled the cabinet, including two big bosses, Qian Muqian and Cheng Qingsong.

But only in Yanyi, there was no movement at all.

In the mansion.

Yu Yanyi looked in the direction of the imperial city and sighed.

King Chu, what a pity!

The new king, Zhu Zhankun, disappointed Yu Yanyi even more.

Including him, most of the courtiers did not believe that Chu King Zhu Zhangui committed suicide out of fear of crime, and they even did not believe that Chu King was guilty.

If we eliminate the threat to ourselves, there is some sense in it.

However, the new emperor Zhu Zhankun also raided the Prince of Chu's Mansion and transferred all the female relatives from the Prince of Chu's Mansion into the Jiaofang Division.

Murder and heart-wrenching!

He also humiliated the King of Chu who died unjustly. Is such a person worthy of being the emperor?!

If his inference was correct, even the emperor's death was related to the prince.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this time, Yu Yanyi is wandering in indecision. Such a person will be the emperor...

"Master Yu! I found the evidence!"

A figure appeared in Yu Yanyi's study.

Li Jingmen, Mu Xiaochan.

"What?!" Yu Yanyi turned around and looked at Mu Xiaochan, with a look of shock in his eyes.

"What evidence?!"

Mu Xiaochan took out a scroll in her hand and said, "This is the confession of Zhao Buwang, the imperial physician who was a member of Zhu Zhankun's party in the imperial hospital."

Yu Yanyi took the confession from Mu Xiaochan, "How did you get this confession?!"

Mu Xiaochan proudly took credit for her master and said, "My master arrested Zhao Buwang and only used a few small tricks to get him to tell the truth."

Although he helped the prince complete his rebellion, Zhao Buhua was still extremely uneasy.

No matter how reliable his mouth is, it cannot be more reliable than a dead man.

These days, although he was promoted to the post of Chief of the Imperial Hospital, he has been spending his time in fear.

Han Sumi took advantage of this and got it out of his mouth.

Yu Yanyi opened the scroll and saw ten lines in one glance.

"I committed regicide and put the blame on my younger brother. I am unfaithful, unfilial, and unkind. Bang! Is such a person worthy of being my king of the Great Zhou Dynasty?!"

Yu Yanyi slapped his palm heavily on the desk.

He is really angry. How can he be the lord of the people if he can't be a good person?!

Yu Yanyi remembered his previous evaluation of the prince, "He is not like a human king."

Now he wants to revise it and remove one word, "Looking at it does not look like a human being."

This confession made Yu Yanyi determined that it was time to have a good chat with Cheng Qingsong and Qian Muqian!

I will take responsibility for the eternal infamy!
