Chapter 85 Late Justice

Seeing that Zhao Jinchao wanted to leave, Zhu Cheng shouted: "Stop him."

Most of the Cining Palaces were palace maids, and they were so weak that they could not stop him. Most of the eunuchs brought by Zhu Cheng were still packing up their cooking utensils and couldn't react at once.

Wu Huping was about to chase after him, but Zhu Cheng waved his hand to stop him. Zhu Cheng grabbed the musket on his back, loaded the bullet, aimed accurately, and with a gun, Zhao Jinchao fell to the ground.

"Wu Huping, drag the dog thief over." Seeing Madam Liang's concerning eyes, Zhu Cheng turned his head and said, "Madam Liang, don't worry, he is not dead, I just hit him in the leg. Before you interrogate how you two colluded to frame the prince consort and the princess, it would be hard for you two to die."

The sound of the musket was huge, and the Empress Dowager, the Princess, and the palace maids present were shocked.

Seeing the surprised expressions of Empress Dowager Zheng and the princess, Zhu Cheng thought to himself that he was a little reckless. After all, this place was an imperial palace, and it was a random firearm, which would hurt the sky.

Zhu Cheng smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I was anxious for a moment, afraid that the thief would run away, so I fired a gun. Please rest assured."

Empress Dowager Zheng was still scared and said, "Since it is the culprit who arrested and beat the prince-consort, then forget it. Don't set fire to the musket here next time. At that time, I'll be afraid that the dog thief who was going to catch would not die, and the Ai family will return to heaven first."

Zhu Cheng smiled and said, "No, no. The Empress Dowager will live a hundred years old, and her grandson still hopes that you will support me."

After comforting the panicked Empress Dowager and Princess Shouning, Zhu Cheng turned to Wu Huping: "Tie these two things to a tree for me."

Wu Huping asked, "What should I do if the dog-legged guy Zhao Jinchao brought in?"

"That's not simple, just stick one by one and lie down."

Those people were already shocked. Although the eunuch was vicious, he had never seen a firearm killing people. He had been scared to death. Wu Huping didn't take much effort to put down these people. One of them was very clever. Seeing Wu Huping coming with a stick, he immediately lay down and shouted, "Don't hit, don't hit, I've been photographed lying down."

After bringing down Zhao Jinchao's accomplices, Wu Huping tied Zhao Jinchao and Madam Liang to a tree.

Zhu Cheng was waiting for interrogation when a group of eunuchs holding swords rushed in and asked nervously: "Where are the assassins?"

Zhu Cheng knew that he had set fire guns randomly and quickly explained: "It's okay, the Empress Dowager wants to see firecrackers, so I just put one of them out of the way, and there were no assassins."

The team led by Tu Wenfu, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Horse Supervisor. He stayed overnight yesterday and could have rested during the day today. Unexpectedly, the Donglin Party members were arrested at the gate of the palace this morning, and the supervisors of the Imperial Horse Supervisor were sent out to overwhelm the market, so he had to implicate him and work overtime again.

Tu Wenfu often plays with muskets. From the smoke and explosions, he had already judged that this was the sound of muskets, and it was a very powerful musket. He looked at Zhao Jinchao's wounds tied to a tree and understood everything. However, Tu Wenfu had long known Zhu Cheng, who was favored by two generations of emperors, and knew in the emperor's bedroom that he was a hero in the arrest of the Donglin Party, so he could not arrest him, so he had to pretend to be confused.

Tu Wenfu said: "Since it's time to set off firecrackers, let's forget it. But if you need to report to set off firecrackers in the future, it will be bad if you scare others."

After saying that, he waved his hand and led the guards out of Cining Palace.

A eunuch whispered to Tu Wenfu: "Eunuch Tu, this sound and smoke are clearly a musket. Why don't you arrest that kid? This is a great achievement."

The little eunuch originally wanted to flatter him and give him a great contribution to Eunuch Tu. Unexpectedly, the flattery hit the horse's hooves. Tu Wenfu slapped him and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up, you idiot, your eyes are bright, others can't see it."

The person who broke the scene left, Zhu Cheng was scared and sweated in a cold sweat, thinking that he was too reckless today. Fortunately, Tu Wenfu was clever, otherwise he would be arrested and would be completely lost. Although the emperor would definitely protect himself and would be out of prison for a few days at most, the opportunity to help the princess preside over justice would be gone.

Although Zhu Cheng was only the righteous grandson of Emperor Wanli, he considered himself a member of the Zhu family from the day when Emperor Wanli issued an edict to accept him as the righteous grandson. How could he ignore the daughter of the Zhu family when he saw that the daughter of the Zhu family was bullied by a slave?

Zhu Cheng ordered Wu Huping to use a whip to slap these two slaves who bullied the children of the Zhu family, so that everyone knows that if the Zhu family is not angry, it will be a pity. Once they get angry, the anger of burning the sky and destroying the earth is not something that anyone can tolerate.

Wu Huping was a little reluctant. If he fought with others with real swords and guns, he would not be afraid at all. But if he wanted him to bully two unlucky people who were not able to fight back, he was really not interested. But when Zhu Cheng's order came, he still strictly followed the order. Because the iron rule of strictly enforcing the military order has been integrated into his blood.

Hearing the screams of the two, the princess burst into tears again. Although the late justice is not justice, it is still here. The princess and the princess are still young, and there is still hope of having children. There is still a long way to go in life.

Zhu Cheng's expression was normal, as if he had not heard the screams of the two of them at all. The palace maids and eunuchs next to him were staring at him with awe.

Zhu Cheng, a thirteen-year-old boy, used rigorous logic to cleverly portray Mama Liang as a vanguard who opposed Concubine Zheng's title of Empress; he used thunder to capture the culprit who framed the princess and the son-in-law in one fell swoop; and his iron heart finally caused the criminal to suffer severe retribution for his boldness and arrogance. All of this opened the eyes of the people present and knew that this young man would definitely not be a person in the pool in the future.

Empress Dowager Zheng and Zhu Youjian felt a little reluctant to see the cruel execution scene. Empress Dowager Zheng originally wanted to come forward to persuade him, but thought that Emperor Wanli did not see his daughter at the end of his life because of this vicious woman. He passed away with the hatred of heaven and stopped moving forward.

She didn't want to watch anymore, so she held Princess Shouning's hand and turned back to the hall.

The misunderstanding made her apologize for her daughter. She only left one son and one daughter in her life. Her son had already gone to Luoyang to live in the wilderness, and her chances of entering Beijing were slim. Now, Beijing only has this only daughter who is connected to her blood. She originally thought that her daughter was not a wife, and in order to maintain her dignity and to be able to posthumously be named the queen mother, she suppressed her longing and did not see her daughter who might affect her future. It was not until she was posthumously named the queen mother that she secretly summoned her daughter. Now, she wants to compensate for this daughter, but how should she compensate for the damage she suffered for so many years?

Zhu Youjian couldn't stand it anymore and advised: "Brother Cheng, I know that the evil is done, but is this a little too cruel?"

"Cruel? She just slandered Princess Shouning and her aunt and nephew and committed adultery. With this sentence, I wish I could execute her immediately. Besides, how much your aunt Princess Shouning has suffered, you don't know. Look at the prince-consort later. What is the handsome guy who has chosen thousands of times now? You won't sympathize with them. Since they dare to do it, they must have the expectation of bearing the consequences. Be kind to bad people is to commit crimes against good people. Our Zhu family is not so easy to bully."

Zhu Youjian's eyes lit up, he held Zhu Cheng's hand and said, "Yes, our Zhu family is not so easy to bully."

After a while, he went to invite the eunuch of the son-in-law Ran Xingrang, and followed by a middle-aged man with a hunched back. He saw that this man had a pretty face, but he seemed to be very brave, his eyes wandering around, as if he was afraid that someone would jump out to harm him. Although there were no wrinkles on his face, his temples were already gray.

The eunuch returned the jade belt to Zhu Cheng, and Zhu Cheng tied the belt with his hand. Although the function of the jade belt is not like that of later generations, not to prevent the pants from falling, without wearing the jade belt, the Ming Dynasty's clothing will be a little less chic. How could a cool man like Zhu Cheng make himself imperfect?

"This... this is the prince-in-law Ran Xingrang. Why is he so old?" Zhu Youjian was shocked.

Zhu Cheng sighed and said, "Whoever encounters such a thing will become like this."

Zhu Youjian clenched his fist and clattered for a long time before he said, "Brother Cheng, you are right. Being kind to bad people is committing crimes against good people."

Although Ran Xingrang restored his position as the Prince-Consort Duwei in the third year after the accident, the previous heavy blows had already cast a deep shadow in his heart. He no longer had the arrogance and motivation he had before, and he became more cautious.

Although he saw that Zhu Cheng was just a teenager, he nodded and asked, "Sir, what did you ask me to do?"

"Did you see the two people tied to the tree? They are Ma Ma Liang and Zhao Jinchao. You can get revenge if you have revenge if you have revenge."

Ran Xingrang looked at the two people on the tree carefully. It was indeed his nightmare, his nightmare.

He became angry from his heart, and evil was coming to his courage. He rushed towards the two of them with a turtle punch. Ran Xingrang had never learned martial arts, otherwise he would not have been suppressed by several eunuchs back then, but after he punched, the two of them almost rolled their eyes at that time.

Wu Huping immediately stopped. Although Zhu Cheng did not issue a military order to stop, he could not enforce it stereotypedly. If he hit the excited prince consort, wouldn’t it make Lord Zhu very embarrassed?

Ran Xingrang became more and more angry as he beat him, and he was almost crazy. He rushed up and looked at Zhao Jinchao's neck and took a bite. In just one bite, he bit open the artery vessels on Zhao Jinchao's neck. The blood sprayed a foot high, splashing Ran Xingrang's face and body. Ran Xingrang chewed it a few times, and swallowed the flesh and blood in his mouth.

After swallowing human flesh, he burst out laughing, laughed a few times, and then fell down dejectedly.

Zhu Cheng was shocked and hurriedly went up to pinch others.

Fortunately, Ran Xingrang was just overly excited and fainted, otherwise Zhu Cheng would have committed a crime.

When the princess heard that Ran Xingrang fainted, she hurried out to serve.

Ran Xingrang woke up and saw the princess for the first time. The two hugged each other tightly. At this moment, happiness surrounds them.
