Shen Lang continued to order, "I have an important military mission. Kill anyone who tries to stop me from entering the city!"
The Big Fool closed his eyes and started a massacre with his black iron rod!
Bodies flew everywhere!
The warriors under Shen Lang's command fired their crossbows.
The elite soldiers at the Xuanwu city gate fell to the ground.
They should have fought back.
But after General You Ji Wang Dong died, everyone was leaderless and didn't know what to do.
And even if Wang Dong received the order, it was only to disarm the Shen Lang army and escort them to quarantine.
After all, Shen Lang had just made a great contribution. How could they dare to kill him?
But they didn't expect that they didn't dare.
Yet, Shen Lang dared to do so. Instead, he killed them without mercy.
Shen Lang looked at Wang Dong's body on the ground and said lightly, "The person behind you actually wanted me to lose my mind and kill you. Now you got what you asked for."
"Let's go!"
Under Shen Lang's order, the two hundred warriors under his command sped up, tore through the city guards' encirclement, and rushed into the city.
Dozens of corpses were left behind.
And the horrified people.
After a while, the countless people shouted, "Shen Lang is rebelling, Shen Lang is rebelling!"
… …
Shen Lang smiled disdainfully. Just this little situation?
I dared to slaughter tens of thousands in Daynight Prefecture, but I don't dare to do it in the capital?
He directly went along Xuanwu Avenue to the residence of King Wu Ning Zheng.
Because he knew it wasn't over yet.
The scene at the Xuanwu Gate was just an appetizer.
And after Shen Lang killed people, no army chased after him.
The enemy's goal was very simple. They wanted to create the fact that Shen Lang openly killed people in Xuanwu Gate and wanted to rebel.
…
After entering the residence of King Ning Zheng.
The fifth prince's wife, Lady Zhuo, and the old eunuch who took care of Ning Zheng since he was a child quickly came to greet him.
"Shen, you're finally here, finally here."
Both of their expressions were filled with joy, but also filled with panic.
Sure enough, something had happened.
Shen Lang: "What happened?"
The old eunuch said, "The Fifth Highness has been captured by the Imperial Clan Temple."
Shen Lang's face twitched, "Clan Principle Temple? House arrest? "
The Imperial Clan Temple was in charge of the affairs of the royal family. Sometimes, it was in charge of the affairs of the nobles as well.
The old eunuch said, "No, imprison him! He was thrown into the Zongzheng Temple's prison. "
Shen Lang's eyebrows twitched when he heard this.
Princess Ning Yan was also locked up in a courtyard by the Imperial Clan Temple, but that was just a formality.
But if he were to be locked up in the Imperial Clan Temple's prison, then he would be in deep trouble.
Princess Ning Yan might only be placed under house arrest for two months, but once she was locked up in the Imperial Clan Temple's prison, she might be locked up for a few years, just like a normal prisoner, except that one was in the Supreme Court and the other in the Imperial Clan Temple.
Entering the Imperial Clan Temple's prison was worse than being confined. Basically, one's life was over.
"Why? What crime did His Highness commit? "
The old eunuch said, "Murder?"
Shen Lang was stunned. Prince Ning Zheng committed murder? How was that possible? Although he was introverted, he was kind and steady. How could he kill someone?
Shen Lang asked, "Who did he kill?"
The old eunuch said, "The Vice Minister of the Supreme Court, the Minister of the Supreme Court, the Registrar of the Supreme Court, and two warriors!"
Immediately, Shen Lang's scalp went numb.
Such a big deal? Such a big crime?
A Vice Minister of the Supreme Court was dead?
This was a fourth-rank official, not something a mere You Ji General could compare to.
Not to mention, there was a sixth-rank Minister of the Supreme Court and a seventh-rank Registrar of the Supreme Court.
This was a big deal.
No wonder Ning Zheng was captured and thrown into the Imperial Clan Temple's prison.
This crime was something that even a favored prince could not bear, let alone a prince like Ning Zheng who was not valued at all, and even the county magistrate looked down on him.
The other party's ruthlessness was extraordinary.
Shen Lang took a deep breath and said, "It's impossible for the Fifth Highness to kill anyone. What exactly happened?"
At this moment, Bing 'er ran out and threw herself into Shen Lang's arms.
This girl was almost six months pregnant, and her belly was already very big.
At this moment, her pretty face was haggard and filled with fear and uneasiness. She was like a shivering little beast.
"Son-in-law, I killed them. I killed them." Xiao Bing cried, "His Highness took the blame for me."
Shen Lang looked at Bing 'er. This girl's eyes were red, and he did not know how long she had not slept.
She still had Shen Lang's child in her belly.
Shen Lang comforted her and said gently, "Don't be anxious. Tell me slowly, how did you kill them?"
Bing 'er said, "I used the Pear Blossom Storm hidden weapon that you gave me. With a press of my finger, the five bad guys were all dead. To protect me, His Highness said that he killed them, and now he has been captured. Son-in-law, quickly go and save His Highness. "
Shen Lang's scalp went numb.
Bing 'er, are you so fierce?
You used the Pear Blossom Storm to kill people in Xuan Wu Mansion, and you still dare to do it in the capital?
No, unless it was absolutely necessary, Bing 'er would not do it.
This girl was very smart. She knew what she should do and what she shouldn't do.
Since she killed people, it must be because the other party threatened her life, and even the baby in her belly.
"Bing 'er, I believe that you will not kill people randomly. What happened?"
Xiao Bing lied in Shen Lang's arms, and finally found a sense of security. Then she told him the whole story.
It was because of the two daughters of Yu Fangzhou from Tianfeng Bookstore.
Yu Fangzhou and his wife framed Jin Mucong, and were killed by Shen Lang. The two little girls were adopted, and after the New Year, they were three and four years old.
After nearly half a year, they were very close to Shen Lang, and even closer to Xiao Bing.
But according to the laws of Great Yue, Yu Fangzhou's family was executed, and the two little girls were taken to the Court of Great Grace.
The Court of Great Grace was filled with the children of criminals and officials. Because they were too young, they were not killed, but they were raised as criminals.
That place was hell!
All the boys would be castrated when they grew up, and sent to be eunuchs or military slaves.
The girls were even worse, and all of them were sent to be the lowest female slaves.
Moreover, 30% of the children there did not live to see adulthood.
Of course, Shen Lang and the Fifth Prince could not bear to send the two little girls to the Court of Great Grace.
Especially the Fifth Prince, Ning Zheng, who already saw the two little girls as his own.
That was because these two little girls were really beautiful. Their makeup was as fair as jade. The older girl was very smart and clever, while the younger girl was innocent and pure.
Not to mention Ning Zheng, even Shen Lang liked them very much, and often played with them.
Previously, when Shen Lang was on a diplomatic mission to the Qiang Kingdom, the Supreme Court had come to the Fifth Prince's residence several times to send the two little girls to the Court of Great Grace, but Ning Zheng had rejected them all.
It was also at that time that Ning Zheng felt greatly humiliated, and felt the sorrow of not having power. He could not even protect the two little girls.
Later, when Shen Lang returned from the Qiang Kingdom, the Supreme Court temporarily quieted down.
Who would have thought that they would make a comeback this time?
Three days ago, the newly appointed Vice-Chancellor of the Supreme Court brought a group of people into the Fifth Prince's residence.
While Ning Zheng was not around, he wanted to forcefully take the two little girls away.
Of course, Bing 'er and the Zhuo madam did not allow it, and they went forward to stop them, blocking the two little girls.
In the end, a warrior of the Supreme Court actually wanted to kill Bing 'er's stomach.
The children in her stomach were all of Bing 'er's hope, and they were her lifeblood. How could anything happen to them?
Thus, Bing 'er instinctively fired the Storm of Rose Flowers.
The five people from the Supreme Court were all shot to death.
After killing these people, Bing 'er was extremely terrified. She felt that she had caused great trouble for her son-in-law and for the Kim family.
But she did not regret it, because someone wanted to hurt her baby.
When the Fifth Prince Ning Zheng returned, he was furious and punched the wall.
Once again, he hated the fact that he had no power and was being bullied like this.
They were just two little girls, but the Supreme Court had come to arrest them while he was not around.
Bing 'er was living in his house, so he had a responsibility to protect her, not to mention that she was already more than five months pregnant.
Thus, he took the initiative to bear the crime of murder for Bing 'er, and was then arrested by the Supreme Court and the Clan Justice Temple, and imprisoned in the Clan Justice Temple's prison.
The two little girls were also forcibly taken away and sent to the hellish Court of Great Grace.
… …
After hearing this, Shen Lang was filled with rage.
The other party had no bottom line.
Now, not only had Ning Zheng committed the crime of killing a court official, but Shen Lang had also killed a You Ji General.
Without a doubt, this was the work of the Crown Prince.
Who was the mastermind?
Zhuo Zhaoyan?
Yes, it had to be this woman.
Extremely vicious.
"Son-in-law, it's all my fault, all my fault," Bing 'er sobbed. Bing 'er sobbed, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't killed someone, the Fifth Prince wouldn't have been imprisoned."
Shen Lang said gently, "Bing 'er, you did not do anything wrong. You were very brave. If someone dared to harm our child, we had to act decisively. No matter who they were, we had to kill them all. Even without the two little girls, they would have found other reasons to do it. "
Then, Shen Lang asked the old eunuch, "Elder, why didn't you send someone to inform me?"
The old eunuch replied, "We knew that the other party's target was Young Master Shen Lang. If we had sent someone to inform you, we were afraid that it would mess up your plan. "
Shen Lang nodded.
The old eunuch was right.
The Crown Prince's faction was completely focused on Duke Pei.
Their target was him, Shen Lang!
Shen Lang, didn't you make a great contribution?
But now you killed a military officer of the imperial court and broke into the gates of Xuanwu.
And Ning Zheng killed a few officials of the Supreme Court.
You can't even protect yourself, let alone save people.
Don't think that you've become strong just because you made such a great contribution.
You, Shen Lang, are still weak and insignificant.
Now I'll let you see your true face of weakness.
Do you have the qualifications to be enemies with the Crown Prince?
And at this time!
There was the sound of dense footsteps outside, as well as the sound of armor and weapons clashing.
There was also the sound of hurried hooves.
An army had arrived!
A total of two thousand soldiers had surrounded the small residence of the Fifth Prince Ning Zheng.
After that, a general roared: "Where is Shen Lang!"
Shen Lang walked out.
The fourth rank general said coldly, "You are Shen Lang?"
Shen Lang said, "Sir, you are?"
The general said, "General of the Tianyue Commandery, Xu Siming!"
General? He could already be considered a high-ranking general!
Shen Lang said, "What's the matter?"
The capital commandery general Xu Siming said, "Shen Lang, just now at the gates of Xuanwu, you trampled on the decree jointly issued by the Bureau of Military Affairs, the Bureau of Military Affairs, and the Central Commandery Office, and publicly executed a military officer of the commandery. This is tantamount to treason. Come with us to the commandery office."
"Men, take Shen Lang away!"
How interesting. Just now when I broke into Xuanwu, you didn't chase after me, but now you're chasing after me.
Is this to let me know that something has happened to the Fifth Prince Ning Zheng?
Shen Lang glanced at him and said, "Scram!"
Then, he returned to the Fifth Prince's residence.
"Big Fool, you guard the gate. If anyone dares to come in, smash them!"
"Okay!"
Big Fool stood at the gate of Ning Zheng's residence, wielding his black iron cudgel like a door god.
The commandery general Xu Siming sneered and shouted, "Surround the entire residence! Don't let the traitor Shen Lang escape! Wait for orders from the higher-ups!"
Instantly, two thousand soldiers from the commandery office surrounded the Fifth Prince's residence, not allowing anyone to enter or leave.
Zhuo Zhaoyan glanced coldly at Shen Lang from a few hundred meters away, letting out a disdainful laugh.
Shen Lang, do you really think you're so strong after killing Su Nan?
Do you still want to make an enemy of the Crown Prince?
Do you dare humiliate me like this?
Now, you should know how weak and incompetent you are!
Not far from her was Xue Pan, the Crown Prince of the Wuan Count House, the confidant of the Third Prince Ning Qi.
He was also looking at Shen Lang from afar.
This pretty boy who boasted shamelessly didn't want face when given it, and he actually refused the Xue Clan's good intentions.
How could he still be so determined to seek revenge?
Ridiculous and laughable!
Now that a woman under the Crown Prince's command has made a move, you, Shen Lang, almost met with disaster.
You, a mere Shen Lang, offended both the Crown Prince and the Third Prince at the same time.
Even if you're courting death, you shouldn't be courting death like this.
Let's see how you get past this.
Just you wait to be done for!
… … …
After being surrounded by the commandery office, everyone in the Fifth Prince's residence was terrified.
The Fifth Prince had yet to be rescued, and Prince Shen Lang had committed a crime.
Misfortunes never come singly.
The old eunuch said anxiously, "What should we do? What should we do? "
Shen Lang didn't care at all.
"Don't worry, Ah Weng. This situation looks dangerous, but it's more of a bluff!"
Then, Shen Lang closed his eyes and began to think.
He wasn't thinking about how to deal with the crisis before him.
In fact, the crisis before him didn't require him to do anything at all.
Everything depended on the will of the Monarch.
The key was how to rescue Ning Zheng?
No!
It wasn't just to rescue Ning Zheng.
It was to push Ning Zheng up!
There was no time like the present!
As soon as he entered the capital, he immediately started a war with the Crown Prince and the Third Prince.
… …
Monarch Ning Yuanxian was still entertaining King Wu in the Northern Palace.
Why hadn't he returned to the capital?
Because he still had to wait for the Chu envoy.
Ning Yuanxian couldn't invite King Wu to the capital of the State of Yue, but he wanted to use King Wu to intimidate the Chu envoy, so he could only stay in the Northern Palace.
In the past few days.
Ning Yuanxian hosted banquets every day and was extremely warm to King Wu.
Not only that, the two often recited poems and played chess.
They even hunted on horseback.
In short, not only did the two kings become friends, but they were also as close as brothers.
On this day, the two kings were playing chess again.
Now, Ning Yuanxian won more than he lost.
According to him, it was because he had figured out King Wu's chess style.
In the last border hunting competition, he lost to King Wu, but he had always believed that his chess skills were far better than King Wu's. It was just that his chess style had been thoroughly studied by others, and he knew nothing about King Wu's chess style, so he lost.
In this game.
Ning Yuanxian won again, although only by half a chess piece.
"It's rare for King Wu to be so good at chess at such a young age," Ning Yuanxian said, "I haven't played to my heart's content for a long time."
King Wu shook his head. "I can't, I can't. Brother King's chess skills are just too high. I've racked my brains and am exhausted. I can only play one game a day in the future. Otherwise, my brain won't be able to take it.
"Hahaha …" Ning Yuanxian laughed and said, "King Wu is too modest, too modest."
Following that, he said in a sarcastic tone, "Playing chess with King Wu is a true match. The last time I played chess with Shen Lang, I was so tired that I almost fell asleep. His chess skills are simply unsightly. I will never play a second game with him in my life, how shameful!"
King Wu smiled apologetically.
He clicked his tongue in wonder.
In the past few days, Ning Yuanxian had mentioned Shen Lang's name many times.
Even more than his son.
Although every time he mentioned Shen Lang, Ning Yuanxian's tone was sarcastic.
But who couldn't hear the favoritism in his voice?
King Wu said, "Brother Wang's subordinates are really full of talents. I'm so envious."
Ning Yuanxian said, "There are indeed a few talents in the State of Yue, but Shen Lang is not among them. He is talented, but too frivolous. Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."
King Wu cursed in his heart.
Not worth mentioning, you've mentioned it to me dozens of times in the past few days.
And at this time.
The great eunuch Li Sun rushed in and handed over a secret memorial.
Ning Yuanxian opened it.
There were two things written on it.
First, Ning Zheng killed five officials of the Supreme Court.
Second, Shen Lang returned to the capital, publicly beheaded General You Ji Wang Dong, and rushed into the Xuanwu Gate.
In an instant!
Monarch Ning Yuanxian's expression completely changed.
King Wu stood up and said, "I'm a bit tired, so I'll go rest now. Brother Wang, rest early too."
Ning Yuanxian enthusiastically sent King Wu out of the door.
Then, his expression turned cold and gloomy.
"Did the capital's military governor's office capture Shen Lang?"
Great eunuch Li Sun said, "No, but send two thousand warriors to surround Shen Lang in the 5th Prince's residence."
Ning Yuanxian's gaze became colder and colder.
He suddenly kicked the table in front of him away.
"I'm not dead yet, why are they in such a hurry?"
"Do they really think I'm stupid? Do they really think I'm a fatuous ruler? "
Monarch was furious!
"Tomorrow, send King Wu back to the State of Wu."
"At noon tomorrow, I'll immediately return to the capital!"
"I'd like to see what these people want to do. They're courting death! "
The next day!
Monarch Ning Yuanxian held a grand ceremony to send King Wu back to the State of Wu.
Then, an army of ten thousand escorted King Yue back to the capital!
The Monarch was furious!
