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

"Holy metaphor!"

"The fourth prince, Zhou Zheng, is conferred the title of General of the Northern Conquest!"

"Set off immediately and lead the troops to show off the prestige of our great Zhou Dynasty!"

In Xiang County, the Minister of War opened the imperial edict in his hand and declared in a deep voice.

"Your Highness, you still haven't accepted the order?!"

Looking at Zhou Zheng opposite who not only did not kneel down to accept the order, but was still sitting in his seat with an indifferent expression, the Minister of War also looked a little solemn, and then raised his voice to urge.

"Is this the intention of the Ministry of War? Or is it a hint of the imperial court? Or is it the intention of His Majesty?"

With his arms stretched out, Zhou Zheng didn't even look at the imperial edict.

Zhou Zheng asked with interest as he crossed his legs and leaned on the Taishi chair.

"Is there any difference?"

Seeing Zhou Zheng being so arrogant and not even taking the imperial edict into consideration, the Minister of War's heart sank slightly.

In the past, in Kyoto, it was easy for Zhou Zheng to at least pretend when he saw the imperial edict, but now in Xiangjun, he didn't even pretend.

He didn’t take the imperial edict into consideration at all!

This is simply disrespectful behavior.

"Naturally there is a difference."

"If it's the Ministry of War's intention, then I'm sorry, but the Ministry of War is not qualified to transfer me yet."

Twisting his neck, Zhou Zheng remained calm.

"What if it's the imperial court's intention?"

"Why, there is no one available in the court?"

"Don't they all claim to be ministers and are willing to devote their whole life to the country and the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

"Now, are you scared?"

Zhou Zheng pursed his lips, and the disdainful look on his face was undisguised.

After being complained and scorned by Zhou Zheng, the Minister of War's expression turned extremely cold.

"accurate?"

"Here, the knife is right here. Do you dare to attack me?"

Seeing the look of the Minister of War, Zhou Zheng also sneered.

He raised his hand and pointed at the sharp knife beside him, and asked calmly.

"Don't you dare?"

"I just like the way you can't stand me but don't dare to fuck me."

Seeing the ever-changing expression of the Minister of War, Zhou Zheng hummed and finally stood up.

He slowly walked up to the Minister of War, then raised his arm in public, and without any reason, slapped him down.

Snapped!

A huge force fell, and a crisp sound sounded.

"I am just a minister of the Ministry of War. Even if I am dethroned as the crown prince, you are not someone you can provoke!"

Snapped!

Another slap fell.

"When you get to Xiang County, if it's a dragon, you can wrap it up for me, if it's a tiger, you can lie down for me!"

Snapped!

The third slap fell!

"You're just pretending to be cool in front of your employees, and you don't even know how much you weigh!"

At this time, Minister of War's face was completely swollen, blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth, and two of his teeth were knocked out.

The other officials he brought were even more trembling, not even daring to take a breath.

As a minister of the Six Books, how could he have ever suffered such humiliation!

But the moment their eyes met, before he could get angry, he felt a trace of substantial murderous intent spreading from the depths of Zhou Zheng's pupils!

"Do you believe it or not, labor and management dare to kill you in public!?"

Buzz!

The long sword was unsheathed, and the sound of the sword buzzed.

A trace of ice, sharp enough to break everything, instantly spread across his throat.

Gollum!

The sudden change caused everyone around them to freeze in place, especially the officials of the court, who did not dare to breathe at this moment!

The hair on the back of the Minister of War, who was still somewhat arrogant, stood up.

Because he clearly felt that just now, a sharp touch cut the skin of his throat.

A touch of warmth is slowly overflowing!

The aura of death enveloped him, and Zhou Zheng's bloodthirsty gaze made him shudder!

He never expected that Zhou Zheng, who had lost the aura of the prince, would be so bold!

How dare you attack him, a six-book minister, in public!

"Huh, I don't know how high the sky is."

"It's just a minister. Do you really think that His Highness has never been killed?"

Zhou Ping looked coldly at the Secretary of the Ministry of War, who was as swollen as a pig's head, and whispered in a deep voice.

And these words made the faces of the court officials who came suddenly change.

They vaguely remember the ending of Chen Yonghe, the Minister of War and the Minister of Rites, two years ago.

Think about Zhou Zheng today. Although he does not have the crown prince position, he is undoubtedly more powerful than he was two years ago.

Everyone was trembling, looking at each other, looking at each other, not daring to say a word.

"Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

The Minister of War is still afraid after all!

He trembled and begged for mercy, his eyes full of awe.

The blood constantly flowing from his neck reminded him all the time that Zhou Zheng was serious.

"Excuse me?!"

"late."

Shaking his head, the chill at the corner of Zhou Zheng's mouth became more obvious.

Just two words made everyone's heart sink.

Even the pupils of Zhou Ping, Su Xun'er and others trembled suddenly, with a hint of worry in their hearts.

"Boss, you don't really want to kill him, do you?"

"Doing this now is tantamount to declaring rebellion to the world."

Zhou Ping's hands tightened imperceptibly, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The situation in the Great Zhou Dynasty is tense at the moment. No matter what the reason is, if Zhou Zheng really does this, he may not be able to escape the criticism of the world and future generations.

"He wouldn't be so impulsive."

"This is clearly Emperor Tianjing's trap."

Su Xun'er took a deep breath. She had absolute trust in Zhou Zheng, and she knew that Zhou Zheng would not be easily fooled.

"Even if His Highness does that, so what?"

"The big deal is, it's the other way around!"

There was a fierce flash in the eyes, but there was no fear on Su Xun'er's face.

If she really gets to that point, she will follow him through life and death and will never regret it.

"Your Highness, I am innocent."

"Everything is forced."

"Your Highness, please spare my life!"

Just as everyone's hearts were beating fast, the Minister of War suddenly knelt down in front of Zhou Zheng and kowtowed repeatedly.

He cried bitterly, looked panicked, and couldn't stop begging for mercy.

At this time, he didn't look like the high-ranking second-grade official he usually was.

The greed for life and fear of death are simply displayed vividly.

Not only Zhou Zheng was stunned by this appearance, but even Zhou Ping was unexpected.

"Damn, that's really interesting."

His face couldn't stop twitching, and everyone said that a man is a good man, capable of bending and stretching.

But in Zhou Ping's view, the Minister of the Ministry of War in front of him was simply humbled to the extreme!

Even he had to admire it.

I just don't know how far he can reach.

As for the other court officials accompanying him, their faces turned red.

This is not the same immediate boss they see on weekdays.

He is simply a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

If the news really gets out, the court will lose all face.

"Since ancient times, one has sacrificed one's life to achieve benevolence, and one has sacrificed one's life to gain righteousness."

"Master Shangshu, you have really disgraced our court, and even more so all our civil and military officials."

These officials were filled with resentment at this time.

But no one dared to stand up and speak at this time.

Such subtle changes in expression were caught by Zhou Zheng.

He looked around and sneered.

But they are all in the same boat, why are they pretending to be arrogant and upright at this time?

But Zhou Zheng is too lazy to pay attention to them now.

Instead, he turned his attention back to the Minister of War.

"Forced?"

"Then, tell me, who forced you."

"Again, how did I force you?"
