First Prince of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 736
Two days later at night, in a long-abandoned temple outside Chongde County, Pan Fu’s face was covered in blood and he tilted his head and spat out blood foam, and said with a smile: “I don’t need to use this trick that I’ve been tired of for a long time, right?”
Zhao Zhen red eyes and 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 unfortunately, two strong men firmly controlled his body, and there was a crisp cracking sound, and it was unknown which joint was dislocated.
“Where is the account book? I can give you a good time if you hand it over.”
After a long time, Pan Fu tremblingly said: “What’s the use? At this point, you actually 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 joy of the spirit transcends the pain of the body. Pan Fu is obviously in a semi-crazy state now. Except for the remaining obsession, everything else doesn’t matter. He is looking forward to the ending.
A man broke in from outside the door and reported to Zhao Zhenbao: “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 brother will flee overseas, with a knife in his hand, where we can’t make a living.”
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 feet because of their daring and hard work, but they didn’t know that the key was someone above them.
Without care, 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 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 to protect them.
As far as Pan Fu’s brain is concerned, how much smarter can he be than anyone else?
If you really have that brain, you won’t be where you are today. The Pan family is an outcast, and they are the same, but they kill each other, isn’t it ridiculous?
sighed and wiped off the blood on the knife: “Where are the people from those families?”
A group of people sat and looked to the right, scratched their heads and said, “They were all there just now, saying they went to check on the officer’s whereabouts, but they haven’t come back yet, **** it, 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’s a way out.”
Some people left one after another, but most of them stayed. They were all desperadoes who sold smuggled salt. Sometimes loyalty was more important to them than life.
Pan Fu regained some rationality and bewitched: “You and I are doomed to die from the beginning to the end. Death is not unjust, but don’t take advantage of others. If I were you, I would make this case bigger.”
“Hahaha, how do you say the old saying, you are willing to pull the emperor off the horse, Zhao Zhen, have you been 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 **** 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.”
He took heavy breath and blew the dust in front of his mouth and nose: “Brother, I advise you to die comfortably tonight.”
………
Ma Ze stared at the outline of the temple not far ahead, and the surrounding figures were faintly burning torches, and the officials of Chongde County were kneeling not far away, all of them pale.
Finally got you guys.
During this period of time, they were being tricked around by others, local officials deceived and seduced them, and their supposed help turned out to be genuine, 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 this kind of talk anymore. If there is any mistake, you know the consequences yourself.”
“No!”
Another official from the Ministry of Punishment stepped forward and said, “Let’s wait until dawn, and Qingqi from the guard will be here soon.”
“Yes, brother Ma, Zhao Zhen’s subordinates are all outlaws. 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 is the responsibility of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to hunt down fugitives. If this matter is finally resolved by the local guards, then the Ministry of Criminal Justice will 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. It might not be possible to return to death without success, but his official career would inevitably be cut off.
Ma Ze stood holding a bow, and the skilled criminal officers 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 was scattered and flowed in every corner.
The grappling below is still going on, and the dull sound of horseshoes is getting louder. The Qingqi from the local guards came. The leader reined in his horse and glanced at the battle situation. The corner of his mouth curled up with disdain, and he was about to order the massacre of those who dared to resist.
The two officers 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.”
Na cast his eyes coldly on the two of them and didn’t respond. Civil and military were separated, and no matter how powerful the Ministry of Punishment was, he couldn’t control him. These are all meritorious deeds.
“The merits of the general’s cooperation in the siege must be reported to the imperial court in detail, and the general’s kindness to help us will also be remembered five times, and there will be rich rewards in the future!”
He has a share of the credit, and hearing this, everyone in the Ministry of Punishment will accept his sympathy, so his face looks 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 own adults might be able to benefit from it.
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 diminished. Although the desperadoes were ruthless, the officers of the Ministry of Punishment were not vegetarians. What’s more, the right time, the right place and the right people were there. 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 by Ma Ze with an arrow, and died tonight.
Pan Fu was still alive, Ma Ze ordered someone to treat his wound quickly, it was a stroke of luck, he didn’t even expect this person to still be alive.
Walking in front of 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, a bunch of mobs who can’t stand on the stage. You have some skills, but such small scenes can’t prove how much you have.
Walked in front of the two-faced Lang Guan: “I want to **** Pan Fu back to Beijing, and I will trouble the two of you for the rest of the matter. After returning to Beijing, my younger brother will not return home if he is not 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.
