Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Killing with one strike, Zhou Zheng's expression did not change.

Zhang Hao and others, on the other hand, were shivering, with cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads, and their bodies were shaking constantly.

The arrogant atmosphere at the beginning disappeared instantly, and he didn't even dare to look up at Zhou Zheng.

He had already seen Zhou Zheng's methods, but when he experienced it personally, he was still terrified.

"I have killed many people in Xiang County, and they were all very evil people."

"Master Zhang said that I was right to kill him, which means that this slave is not a good person either."

"I just don't know if the other slaves are the same!?"

Zhou Zheng turned his head with a sneer on his face.

This seemingly casual sentence made several other slaves turn pale instantly.

Then he kept kowtowing to Zhou Zheng, not daring to do anything out of line.

Zhang Hao was equally angry and did not dare to take a breath, so he could only keep swallowing his own saliva.

The smell of blood that had not dissipated from the tip of his nose, and the headless body that was still warm beside him, made him dare not do any disrespectful behavior.

Otherwise, once Zhou Zheng is made unhappy, he may be the next to die!

Zhang Hao kept sighing in his heart at this time. He thought that this time he had found an absolute opportunity to perform meritoriously and even make a small appearance in front of the emperor.

Therefore, we traveled a thousand miles and headed south from the imperial capital.

Unexpectedly, the prince would be so bold, not caring about their status at all, and not even paying attention to the oppression of the imperial court.

Just do it, no delay!

At this time, he finally understood why such credit fell on him!

Because others simply don’t dare!

Only he, a man of two hundred and fifty, took over this task without hesitation.

"By the way, Master Zhang just said that he wanted to take Lan Yu away!?"

Zhou Zheng sat down again and asked calmly.

"Returning to the Crown Prince is the intention of the court..."

"I'm a lowly official, just following orders..."

With such excitement, Zhang Hao still dared to respond in a low voice as he did just now, directly placing himself on the victim's side.

"Then, who else saw Lan Yu enter our Yancheng?"

"Who else saw me personally meeting Lan Yu!?"

Zhou Zheng sneered, Zhang Hao was really greedy for life and afraid of death.

"No, I didn't see it."

"My slave knows nothing."

The few servants kneeling behind Zhang Hao felt their hearts sinking. They shook their heads without waiting for Zhang Hao to speak.

Everyone is not a fool. Why can't they see how the man died just now?

At this time, anyone who wants to live knows how to answer.

"Prince, even your subordinates don't know..."

Zhang Hao mentally scolded the people behind him who were afraid of death, but he did not dare to neglect and responded in kind.

Seeing the reaction of several people, Gong Tan and others present had contempt in their eyes.

If officials in both the DPRK and the Central Government behave like this, the whole world of Zhou Dynasty will be worried.

Once upon a time, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, someone gave a righteous advice.

Once upon a time, there was a sense of arrogance in the world of Great Zhou.

In the past, how many scholars were not afraid of life and death, and how many courtiers were not powerful!

It is precisely because of them that Da Zhou can continue to inherit and develop.

But now, these spirits are hard to see.

The only one, Sima Cheng, also resigned in obscurity and almost died in the imperial capital.

Almost none of the remaining officials in the court are truly proud and loyal.

"If you haven't seen it, how can you come to Yancheng to catch Lan Yu?"

Zhou Zheng didn't care about the crowd, but scolded them in a deep voice.

This question made Zhang Hao and others sweat profusely. They looked at the headless corpse aside with their peripheral vision, and their faces became distorted.

"The witness, wasn't he beheaded by you?"

Of course, this could only be heard silently in their hearts, and no one dared to really question Zhou Zheng.

"What the prince said is true."

"I will return to the imperial capital immediately to clarify the truth."

"Tell Your Majesty, there must be something fishy about this matter. Maybe it's a misunderstanding, or someone is deliberately trying to frame the Crown Prince."

Zhang Hao has only one thought now, which is to leave Yancheng and return to the imperial capital as soon as possible.

Only within the imperial capital could he feel the slightest bit of safety.

Otherwise, facing Zhou Zheng, he always felt like he was being crushed by Mount Tai, and even his breathing became rapid.

"His Majesty asked you to come?!"

Zhou Zheng frowned and asked in a deep voice.

"Back to the Crown Prince, it's the Prime Minister."

"I will explain the situation to the Prime Minister when I get back."

Realizing that he had made a mistake, Zhang Hao quickly changed his words.

When Zhou Zheng heard the word "prime minister", the chill in his pupils increased a bit, and the murderous intent on his face became even more intense.

Perhaps Zhou Zheng's biggest regret was that he didn't directly anger this old guy to death.

"no need."

However, Zhou Zheng's answer exceeded all expectations.

No? What means! ? ! !

Could it be that the prince wants to kill himself and others here! ?

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao and others felt ashen, their faces were pale, and their nerves were completely tense.

As for Gong Tan and others, they didn't care.

After all, killing this kind of person would be a good thing for the court and the world.

"Because your news is very accurate, Lan Yu has indeed entered Yancheng."

"Besides, I made a special trip to pick him up."

Zhou Zheng lay on the chair, speaking calmly and word by word.

Hiss, hiss! ! !

And these words made everyone's expressions change. Whether it was Gong Tan and others or Zhang Hao and others, they couldn't help but take a breath.

Especially when Gu Jiang and others looked sideways at Zhou Zheng, there was a strong worry in their eyes.

This is undoubtedly a self-confession!

If the crime is proven, even if Zhou Zheng is a member of the royal family and the current crown prince, he may not be able to escape.

And Gu Jiang and others will be directly affected and implicated.

They couldn't understand why Zhou Zheng would take the initiative to speak at such a critical moment.

Different from Gu Jiang and others, when Zhang Hao and others heard this sentence, there was no excitement on their faces, but fear and panic as if they were mourning for a heir!

Because in their opinion, Zhou Zheng only had one purpose for saying this!

That means he is not afraid at all!

It’s not that I’m not afraid of the court or Emperor Tianjing, but I’m not afraid of them bringing the news back!

This also means that Zhang Hao and others will be killed next!

If it were before, maybe no one would worry, after all, Zhang Hao is an official of the imperial court!

But the person in front of me is Zhou Zheng, the current crown prince who bloodbathed the imperial capital and killed countless people in Xiang County!

Not to mention he is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, even if he is the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Zhou Zheng would dare!

"Prince, please spare your life!"

"Prince, please spare your life!"

"Xiaguan didn't hear anything, Xiaguan didn't know anything!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao couldn't care less about anything else and kowtowed to Zhou Zheng desperately.

The few slaves behind him reacted in the same way.

Seeing this, Gong Tan, Gu Jiang and others also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it is risky to kill the imperial officials, Zhou Zheng is not afraid. What do they have to be afraid of! ?
