First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Two nights later, in a long-abandoned temple outside Chongde County, Pan Fu's bloodstained face tilted his head and spit out bloody froth, and said with a smile: I don't need to use this trick that I've been tired of for a long time, right?

With red eyes, Zhao Zhen slowly stabbed the tip of the knife into his shoulder: My brother, my brother has never harmed you, why didn't you leave a way for my brother to survive?

Pan Fu struggled and screamed in pain, but it was a pity that two strong men firmly controlled his body, there was a crisp cracking sound, and no one knew which joint was dislocated.

Where is the account book? If you hand it over, I can still give you a good time.

After a long time, Pan Fu tremblingly said: What's the use? At this point, you think that destroying the account books will solve the problem?

It's late, you shouldn't have had this hope from the beginning, and you shouldn't have helped me escape the pursuit of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, hahaha, it's late.

The spiritual joy surpassed the pain of the body. Pan Fu is obviously in a semi-mad state now. Except for the remaining obsession, everything else doesn't matter. He is looking forward to the ending.

A man broke in outside the door and reported to Zhao Zhen: Brother, the officials are here!

The person holding Pan Fu said harshly: Brother, don't worry about it so much, kill this kid, let's retreat first.

That's right, if the sky falls, there will be a tall man to support it. At worst, our brothers will flee overseas. With a knife in hand, we won't be able to earn a living there.

Zhao Zhen watched the faces of a group of brothers gradually calm down. They didn't understand anything, and thought that they could sell salt under the emperor's foot because of their daring and hard work, but they didn't know that the key was someone above them.

If they didn't take care of them, how could they cross the state capital and go overseas, they would have died on the road, and they didn't even need the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. Some colleagues wanted to use their heads as votes.

Gentlemen and prime ministers all have a way out, but those who do dirty work have never had a way out. They will die if this happens, and they will die if they don't have the prime minister's protection. They have to do it as a last resort.

As far as Pan Fu's brain is concerned, how can he be smarter than anyone else?

If he really had that brain, he wouldn't be in the situation he is today. The Pan family is an outcast, and so are they, but it's just that they kill each other, isn't it ridiculous?

He sighed and wiped off the blood on the knife: Where are the people from those families?

A group of people sat and looked right, scratched their heads and said, They were all there just now, saying they went to investigate the officer's whereabouts, but they haven't come back yet, mother, they ran away.

Zhao Zhen sneered and looked at his subordinates: They are all good families, how could they mix with us desperadoes to resist official orders.

Then there was a moment of silence, and he met the eyes of the brothers below and said: It's me who is the big brother who has come this far. If you want to leave, let's go now. Go straight to the mountains and lie dormant. Maybe you can come out in a few years. There is a way out.

Some people left one after another, but most of them stayed. They were all desperadoes who sold illegal salt. Sometimes loyalty was more important than life to them.

Pan Fu regained some sense and bewitched, You and I are destined to die from the beginning to the end. Death is not wronged, but don't take advantage of others. If I were you, I would make this case bigger.

Hahaha, as the old saying goes, you dare to pull the emperor off the horse, Zhao Zhen, after being a dog for so many years, do you still have the guts?

Don't forget that you sell salt with a knife to eat meat, not to eat shit for a lifetime, don't forget!

Stopped the men who were about to hack Pan Fu to death with a single knife, sent Pan Fu away from the shackles, watched him fall weakly on the ground, shook his head and smiled and said: I didn't expect our brother to fulfill the oath of sworn brotherhood, the same year, the same month, the same day die.

Heavy breathing blows the dust in front of the mouth and nose: Brother, I advise you to die comfortably tonight.

……………

Ma Ze stared intently at the outline of the temple not far ahead, surrounded by figures and burning torches, the officials of Chongde County knelt not far away, all pale.

Finally got you guys.

During this period of time, they were played around by people, deceived and seduced by local officials, and they should have been helped, but they were really helpful, making the originally extremely simple pursuit into the current situation.

My lord, I've surrounded you, and my brothers are watching the important places. This time they can't fly!

Ma Ze's dry eyes barely blinked: I don't want to listen to such words anymore, if there is any mistake, you know the consequences yourself.

promise!

Another official from the Ministry of Punishments stepped forward and said, We'll wait till dawn to do it. Qingqi from the guard will be here soon.

That's right, Brother Ma, Zhao Zhen's subordinates are all desperadoes. Although they don't have bows and crossbows, they don't lack weapons. Fighting will only increase casualties. It's better to wait for the guards to come and take them down.

Ma Ze raised his eyes and took a breath: Can our Ministry of Punishment still lose face like this? Just go back like this, how can we face Master Shangshu?

It was the Ministry of Criminal Justice's responsibility to hunt down fugitives. If this matter was finally resolved by the local guards, then the Ministry of Criminal Justice would lose all face.

The two did not continue to persuade, there was no need to make enemies out of thin air, Ma Ze was obviously driven to a desperate situation, and it might not be possible to return to death without success, but his official career would inevitably be cut off, blocking someone's official career is tantamount to killing his father.

Ma Ze stood holding a bow, and the skilled officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice also showed their weapons. Now, the only way to wash away the shame is with blood. This is not for the court, but for his own future.

Not long after, in front of the wild temple, the long black shadows of the two sides met under the moonlight and the light of the torches. They had no other choice. The shopping began, and the dark red liquid splashed and flowed everywhere.

The grappling below was still going on, and the dull sound of horseshoes gradually sounded, and the Qingqi from the local guards came. The leader reined in his horse and glanced at the battle situation, with a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth, and he was about to order the massacre of those who dared to resist.

The two officials of the Ministry of Punishment looked at each other and stepped forward to block them: The night is so dark that it is difficult to distinguish the enemy from us, so please wait and see, General.

That man cast his cold eyes on the two of them and did not respond. Civil and military were separated, and no matter how powerful the Ministry of Punishment was, he could not control him. These were all meritorious deeds.

The merits of the general's siege must be reported to the imperial court in detail. We will also remember the general's kindness in helping us, and there will be rich rewards in the future!

He got a share of the credit, and hearing this, everyone in the Ministry of Punishment would accept him as a favor, so his complexion looked a little better: Think about it, if they continue to fight like this, even if they can win, it will be a miserable victory.

The two of them didn't speak but just cupped their hands, and the general didn't say much anymore, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and his commander had a long history of friendship, he despised the affection of these two gentlemen, but Lord Shang Shu still had to give it to him .

Seeing this, the soldiers at the back also knew that they would not be able to take credit for the free work, and that their lord might be able to benefit from it, but what would they have for these big soldiers, it would be bad luck to run for nothing at night.

But fortunately, there are still scenes to watch, and it's enjoyable to watch. After a while, I started to applaud loudly, the laughter was extremely harsh, and the people in the Ministry of Justice were angry but they had no choice. help.

The sound of fighting gradually became quieter. Although the desperadoes were ruthless, the officers of the Ministry of Punishment were not vegetarians. What's more, the time and place were favorable for people and tools. After paying dozens of casualties, they were still taken down in one fell swoop.

Zhao Zhen, as Pan Fu wished, was shot through the throat with an arrow by Ma Ze, and died tonight, but he died simply, without having to go through torture.

Pan Fu was still alive, Ma Ze ordered someone to treat his wound quickly, it was a stroke of luck, he didn't expect this person to still be alive.

Walking up to the guard general, he bowed and said, Thank you, General, for your kindness.

Pianjiang nodded slightly, not because of his identity, but because of the stunning arrow just now, he simply and neatly eliminated the leader of the opponent, making the battle much smoother.

But that's it, it's just a bunch of mobs who can't stand on the stage, you have some skills, but such small scenes can't prove how capable you are.

Walking in front of the two-faced Lang Guan: I want to escort Pan Fu back to the capital, and I will trouble the two of you for the rest of the matter. After returning to the capital, my younger brother will not return if he is drunk at the banquet.

It is enough to make up for the mistakes, and the later credits must be given to others, otherwise it will be difficult to move forward in the future.
