Zhu Gui looked at the angry Xu Miaoqing and thought to himself that it was terrible.
But now I don't care about that much. Although the shot just now killed half of the salt gang members, the remaining half have already woken up.
"Leave no one alive."
Zhu Gui gave the order with a solemn expression.
These guys who dare to rush into the palace can be regarded as outlaws, and they can only be a disaster if they stay.
The soldiers in the government are all salt traders, so needless to say they are ruthless.
In addition, the enemies were frightened by the cannon shot just now, and they rushed into the courtyard like tigers rushing into a herd of sheep.
Ten soldiers protected Zhu Gui while sniping at enemies who ran away.
This battle was fought extremely easily, and within the time of a stick of incense, only the bandit leader One-Eyed Dragon was left.
The soldiers began to clean up the battlefield.
When Xu Yingxu rushed back after receiving the news, he happened to see his sister grabbing the ear of King Dai and scolding him: "If you dare to lie to me again in the future, I, I..."
"Ahem."
Xu Yingxu coughed quickly to tell his sister to pay attention to the impact.
Zhu Gui quickly broke free.
"Have the Salt Gang station been captured?"
Xu Yingxu nodded and said: "Your Highness, what is the situation here?"
Before Zhu Gui opened his mouth, Xu Miaoqing on the side said: "Can't you see? This fool used a cannon to bombard his own yard. Look at that big hole, he made it."
"Cannon?" Xu Yingxu was even more confused.
Zhu Gui sighed and handed a secret letter to Xu Yingxu.
The other party took it over and looked at it suspiciously, with a look of surprise on his face.
It turns out that Hu Shidao had already obtained all of One-Eyed Dragon's plans through his informants.
And Zhu Gui used every trick to cooperate with the other party in this play.
As for the cannon, he naturally redeemed it from the system store.
That was the Hongyi cannon that would only appear in the late Ming Dynasty. No wonder Xu Miaoqing was angry.
Zhu Gui avoided the topic and avoided it.
"Is this the mastermind of this incident? How dare you attack the prince? Let me send him on his way."
Xu Yingxu looked at the one-eyed dragon with anger in his eyes, and his hand was already on the handle of the knife.
If it hadn't been for Dai Wang's quick wit, his sister might have been injured this time, which he couldn't tolerate.
"General Xu, please be patient. This person is still useful."
Zhu Gui quickly stopped Xu Yingxu.
Xu Yingxu frowned and looked at Zhu Gui.
"I don't believe that a small salt gang dares to attack the palace. There should be someone behind him to advise him."
Zhu Gui said.
Xu Yingxu sighed, it seemed that Zhu Gui's words convinced him.
"Go and call Hu Shidao over."
Zhu Gui gave an order to a soldier.
After half a stick of incense, Hu Shidao hurried over.
He was secretly frightened when he saw the one-eyed dragon with all kinds of flowers tied up in the yard and his eyes blank.
Unexpectedly, the young prince had such means and really caught the one-eyed dragon.
He also heard in the morning that the other party had taken all the soldiers to deal with the thugs who were harassing the road construction team.
"See you, King Dai." Hu Shidao entered the living room and bowed his head.
"Get up, someone, give me a seat, Mr. Hu. Thanks to your information this time, I was able to successfully capture the Salt Gang gangsters."
Zhu Gui did not hesitate to praise Hu Shidao.
"The prince is ridiculous. The common people just did what they could. It was the prince who had great calculations and command like a god that could catch these people."
Hu Shidao said hurriedly.
The conversation between the two made Xu Yingxu and Xu Miaoqing frown on the side.
"Okay, that's enough of the polite words. Now I want to know if there is someone behind the scenes behind the one-eyed dragon?"
Zhu Gui asked.
"this……"
Hu Shidao looked troubled.
If he said he didn't know, no one present would believe him.
But if he really said it, I'm afraid this matter would involve him.
Before the acting king came to Datong Mansion, he had a very happy cooperation with Mr. Liu.
It's just that this time he chose to cut off his tail to survive.
When Zhu Gui saw his expression, he already realized what was going on.
"I can guess some of Mr. Hu's concerns, but don't worry, you have made a great contribution this time, and I can forget about the past."
"Prince Xie, actually the person who has been cooperating with the Salt Gang is..."
Before Hu Shidao finished speaking, he heard the sound of the door of Prince Dai's Mansion being forcibly pushed open from the outside.
Then there was a burst of chaotic footsteps.
"Where is the acting king?"
Liu Jingming's voice came from outside the door.
Zhu Gui glanced at Hu Shidao, who looked extremely frightened. It seemed that the person he didn't mention was Mr. Liu.
It's just that he didn't know what the other party was relying on to lead people into the Prince Dai's Mansion.
Could it be that the imperial edict has arrived?
Does the emperor really want to make his decision?
Thinking of this, Zhu Gui couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart.
He stood up and walked outside the living room, where he saw Liu Jingming commanding people to control all the servants and most of the soldiers in Prince Dai's palace.
"Master Liu, what do you mean?"
Zhu Gui asked in a deep voice.
Liu Jingming looked at the young prince in front of him and said with an awe-inspiring look: "I have received news that the secret possession of weapons on behalf of the king has violated the laws of the Ming Dynasty. I and General Chen of the Datong Mansion garrison came here specifically for this matter.
"
After saying that, he took a step aside, and a strong man wearing full armor came out next to him and saluted Zhu Gui and Xu Yingxu with his fists raised, a look of embarrassment on his face.
"Your Majesty, General Xu, I'm offended."
He waved his hand, and a dozen sergeants rushed over to him, wanting to take action.
Zhu Gui snorted coldly, his face became gloomy, and the soldiers beside him pointed their guns directly at these people, and then fired a shot into the sky, which contained a warning.
The loud noise caused the sergeants who rushed over to freeze on the spot.
"King Dai, do you want to rebel?"
When Liu Jingming saw the flintlock gun in the hands of the soldiers, not only was he not afraid, but his eyes actually shone.
This is all irrefutable evidence.
"Rebellion? What a big hat. Where were you people when the Salt Gang gangsters attacked the Prince Dai's Mansion?"
Zhu Gui scolded angrily.
General Chen looked at Dai Wang with a surprised look on his face: "I have not heard about this. This time I came here at the invitation of Mr. Liu according to the Ming Law. If what Dai Wang said is true, I am willing to take him with me."
The soldiers leave."
Liu Jingming became anxious when he heard this.
"General Chen, look at what those people are holding in their hands. They are all firearms. According to Ming law, vassal kings are not allowed to recruit armies privately."
Xu Yingxu on the side couldn't listen anymore.
He stepped forward and lifted Liu Jingming up.
"See clearly, these are all the soldiers of the King's palace. Besides, if you transfer all the salt envoys, are you being a little too lenient?"
Liu Jingming struggled and shouted: "Let me go, I am from King Yan."
Everyone around them was shocked when they heard this.
In fact, General Chen was invited here precisely because he knew that Liu Jingming had this background.
But this is a window paper that cannot be broken. Once it is broken, no matter what happens to the relationship between the two princes, Liu Jingming will become an abandoned son.
