When the yamen runners heard the order from the King of Qin, they surrounded them with water and fire sticks. Half of the water and fire sticks were painted black and the other half were painted red. They were as thick as a child's arms and were covered with flat iron. They were very heavy. It was not a joke to hit them.

Zhu Cheng was a little panicked. His twenty elite Jinyiwei had already been sent to arrest the Donglin Party, and only Wu Huping was left by his side, and they were unarmed. If Zhu Cheng held the double hammer and Wu Huping held the bright silver plum blossom gun in his hand, the situation would be different. They could make these yamen runners with silver-like wax gun tips cry and cry for their parents.

These yamen runners are tall and strong, but have not been systematically trained, especially without the baptism of war. It is okay to bully the people, but compared with the troops, it is not enough to see them at all.

However, even the yamen runners who have no feet can bully Zhu Cheng to death now. Because the water and fire sticks are weapons, they could have smashed them to death when Zhu Cheng and Wu Huping rushed to the yamen runners.

Zhu Cheng thought it was not good. If he had known this, he would have left half of the guards. But who knew that he could have encountered such a huge disaster in the palace? He thought that helping the princess to deal with the evil slaves should be admired by the members of the royal family, but he was forced into such a situation. In the eyes of the royal family members, as long as they are fine, they should care about others' death, everything is mainly decent, and their face is more important than anything else. No wonder Princess Shouning still fell into the hands of the evil slaves after the struggle.

Zhu Youjian couldn't help it, rushed over from the jury position beside the main seat, reached out to stop Zhu Cheng and Wu Huping behind, and shouted: "I am King Xin, the younger brother of the Emperor Ming Dynasty, you can't beat Zhu Cheng!"

The yamen runners were a little hesitant. King Xin was deeply favored by Emperor Tianqi and was well-known in Beijing. If Zhu Youjian was beaten, his whole family and the nine clans would not be enough to cut his head.

The King of Qin said angrily: "Of course, King Xin cannot beat him, you can't put him aside and attack Zhu Cheng who pretended to be a royal family and his evil servant."

Zhu Cheng pulled Zhu Youjian behind him, because King Xin was in danger after King Qin said this. Although the yamen runners planned to use water and fire sticks to hold Zhu Youjian aside, it is not guaranteed that any yamen runner used too much force and injured King Xin. Moreover, Zhu Cheng is A Jian's brother Cheng, how could he let his younger brother block the knife in front and hide behind him?

Looking at the yamen runners who were pressing step by step, Zhu Cheng whispered: "Wu Huping, I have implicated you."

Wu Huping didn't look back and responded: "What did you say? Since joining the Jinyiwei, I have put my life and death aside, and serve the country with loyalty, and will die."

When Zhu Cheng saw Wu Huping talking, the musket on his back shaking left and right with the movement, his heart moved. Although he could not kill people with muskets at the clan mansion, he put a gun on it, used the loud bang of the musket to suppress the yamen runners, and then snatched the water and fire sticks. As long as he and Wu Huping had sticks in his hands, it would be no problem to knock down these yamen runners.

In fact, the yamen runners had seen Wu Huping's muskets for a long time, but they had never come to confiscate them. The reason was very simple, because it was very troublesome to fire the muskets at that time. First, they had to put the gunpowder into the gun tube, then compact it with a strip of iron bullets, and then use a strip of iron to ignite the leads with a rope around their necks, so that they could fire. Of course, you can also not use a rope, but also a burning wooden strip. As for matches, you should not think about the lighter, because it was not invented at that time. The time for loading muskets was enough for the yamen runners to hit him eight times. But they didn't know that Wu Huping's back was not an ordinary musket at all, but the most advanced musket after firing rifled muskets. This musket was not only the most advanced in the Ming Dynasty, but also the most advanced in the world.

Zhu Cheng grabbed the musket on Wu Huping's back. Wu Huping thought it was a yamen runner who was snatching the gun, and was about to struggle. When he heard Zhu Cheng's words "let go", he turned sideways, allowing him to get the musket more conveniently.

Zhu Cheng took out a bullet from his pocket and skillfully put it in the musket.

The yamen runners still rushed in slowly, not speeding up because of Zhu Cheng's loading.

Zhu Cheng raised his gun to the sky and shouted: "Cover your ears!"

Wu Huping immediately covered his ears when he heard the ling. Zhu Youjian pulled out a silk handkerchief from his pocket, pulled it in half, and put it into Zhu Cheng's ears, and then covered his ears.

Zhu Cheng felt warm in his heart, nodded and smiled at Zhu Youjian, and then pulled the trigger.

With a loud "bang", the dust on the roof made a "rustling" sound, falling down.

Unexpectedly, the guns were fired in the house and the guns outside the house. The smoke of guns could not dissipate at all, and it spread throughout the room. The sound was completely beyond expectations. Although Zhu Cheng's ears were stuffed with silk handkerchiefs, they were still buzzing. Looking at the King of Qin and the yamen runners, they all looked painful and covered their ears. But now that the guns have been fired, what's the use of covering their ears?

Wu Huping was very clever and had known the purpose of Zhu Cheng's gun. When the gun sounded, he rushed out like an arrow from the string, punched one by one, knocking down three yamen runners who were so scared that they were robbed three water and fire sticks, and each of them sent one.

Wu Huping took the musket and carried it on his back. The three of them held wooden sticks and were on guard with all their might.

The dust on his head kept falling, and Zhu Cheng thought to himself that the sanitation of the clan mansion was too bad, and he would not clean it up so much dust. If he worked in this environment for a long time, he was prone to pneumoconiosis. I don’t know if the Ming Dynasty had a "Labor Protection Law", otherwise he would have to ask Emperor Tianqi to reimburse his medical expenses.

With a light "bang", a small piece of tiles fell to the ground and fell to pieces.

Zhu Cheng was reborn in the Ming Dynasty and saw two houses falling down, one was the home of the glass maker Wu Fa, and the other was the broken house in the original Jingxi Huangzhuang. This tiles did not fall down after the gun was fired, but fell down after the gun was fired for a long time, indicating that the stress structure of the entire roof may have been destroyed and the house was about to collapse.

Zhu Cheng shouted: "This place is going to collapse!"

After saying that, he pulled Zhu Youjian and rushed out of the lobby with a water and fire stick. Wu Huping followed behind with a water and fire stick.

Hearing Zhu Cheng's shouts, the people in the lobby woke up as if they were dreaming and ran out quickly. However, their psychological quality was too poor, and they were completely disorganized when they ran. Some lost their shoes, some squeezed out their hats, and of course more people threw away their weapons. However, although they were chaotic, everyone ran out, and even the fat King Zhu Yichang, who was so fat that he was breathing when walking, ran out.

Looking at Zhu Cheng's side, the three of them were panicked and not messy, dressed in a tight manner, holding three water and fire sticks in their hands. When everyone saw these three people, they couldn't help but feel ashamed. This is the majesty of the Tian family.

The roof of the lobby of the Zongren Mansion was indeed tilting, and the tiles fell like raindrops. Several tiles fell below the eaves, and the splashed debris almost scratched the nearby people. Everyone hurriedly took more than ten steps back.

With a loud "boom", the lobby collapsed completely, splashing more than one meter of dust.

"I didn't fire a shot just now, why did I knock down the house? The gunpowder of the musket is black gunpowder, and the bullets are also ordinary lead bullets, so it won't have that much power." Zhu Cheng thought to himself.

He didn't know that some buildings in the palace were disrepaired and had become dangerous houses. His gun just now hit the hidden wounds of the main beam, and the main beam broke from there and the house collapsed. In fact, if the house was inspected regularly, you would find that the main beam had been deformed and encountered strength, it was very likely to break. Finding craftsmen to replace the main beam as soon as possible will not cause the disaster today. Unfortunately, a few years ago, the two emperors died one after another and spent countless money to build the tombs. As a result, the money for the maintenance of the palace was gone, and this matter was delayed.

The clan mansion tried the case, but the prisoner was unscathed, and the lobby was demolished by others. This can be said to have never been heard of in the Ming Dynasty. If it is spread, it will definitely become a laughing stock.

The King of Qin was so angry that his fat flesh trembled, and his halberd cursed: "I'll go... go, you bastard, how dare you demolish the lobby of the clan mansion?"

Zhu Cheng naturally knew that the collapse of the lobby had a direct relationship with his gun, but he did not dare to admit it, otherwise the reputation of being arrogant and arrogant would not have been spread, and Emperor Tianqi might not have been able to protect him.

He made a point of reasoning: "It is obvious that the lobby collapsed after being disrepaired for a long time. What does it have to do with me? Did I bring a shovel or a sledgehammer? Besides, I stood in the middle of the lobby, without the sky or the ground, how could I demolish the house? Otherwise, His Royal Highness Qin would demonstrate and demolish the house in the middle of the house, so that we juniors would study hard."

"You! If you hadn't fired that gun, would the house collapse?"

"The Shenji Camp in Beijing fires guns every day. According to you, people are not going to repair houses every day."

"You...le and right, take down the murderer who demolished the lobby!"

The yamen runners responded and rushed forward.

However, Zhu Cheng and Wu Huping had a stick in their hands, which was like a tiger adding wings. Their stick skills were exquisite, such as chopping, blocking, picking, hanging, poking, tapping, plucking, and striving to defeat the enemy, and they beat the yamen runners, and they only regretted that their parents had fewer legs.

Zhu Youjian was less powerful and did not move the water and fire stick with iron core. However, he did not stop. He took out his slingshot, picked up the gravel on the ground, and shot at the enemy with his aim.

Zhu Youjian's slingshot shot was quite accurate. When he attacked Dingguo Gong Manor, he could hit Xu Ziguang, who was more than ten steps (one step in the Ming Dynasty was 1.2 meters). Zhu Youjian joined the battle group, accelerating the retreat of the yamen runners.

Isn't anyone thinking of subduing this annoying ghost who puts hidden weapons randomly, but this annoying ghost is the prince. Isn't it a birthday star to eat arsenic when he attacks him? Doesn't he think his life is long? Zhu Youjian, who is carrying the gold medal of avoiding death, drew his bow from left to right, and beat the yamen runners to cry and call their parents.

After suffering a lot of losses, the yamen runners learned their lessons. Since they could not beat Zhu Cheng, they had to be wary of Prince Xin's sneak attack. What else can they do? They all jumped out of the battle group and hid behind.

Zhu Cheng asked with a smile: "Your Highness, will you still fight?"

Fight? The King of Qin looked around, and his nose was blue and his face was broken, and he was defeated. How to fight?

He said he couldn't win, but he couldn't win. According to his nature, he wanted to lower his head and expose this matter. Anyway, he had lost his face, so it was nothing to lose it again. But now that the main hall of the Zongren Mansion was demolished, the matter could no longer be good.

The King of Qin shouted: "Yard runners, guard the main gate, I will send someone to bring reinforcements."

With a "bang", the gate of the clan mansion was closed by the yamen runners. They were very smart and ran outside the yard. When they closed the door, they could not get over Zhu Cheng's water and fire sticks, nor could they get over the slingshot of King Xin.

A yamen runner was a little slower and locked in the yard. He knocked on the door desperately, but how dare the people outside open the door?

He had to shrink into a ball, hide in the corner, and silently recite in his heart: "You can't see me, you can't see me."
