Chapter 172: Carrying the coffin, join in the fun
As a contender for the throne, Zhang Juncheng naturally knows the evil deeds of other princes, especially when he is friendly with the second prince, and he has not only heard of some evil things that the Chen family has done, but has even personally participated in them.
When he said this at this time, Zhang Junji was also beating the drum in his heart, and at the same time secretly regretted it.
knew that Zhang Jun had become a prince and would not leave a way back for himself and the Xia family, he should have solved Zhang Juncheng halfway before!
It's better than being in a dilemma at this time.
"Eighth brother, don't listen to the wind or rain, and be deceived by others."
Zhang Junji softened his tone and persuaded Zhang Juncheng.
"Although Xia Guozhang's crime is serious, you have not been with Xia Guozhang during this time, which is an unknowing ......"
"Nope."
Just when Zhang Junji wanted to make up for Zhang Juncheng, so as not to expose the Chen family's guilt, Zhang Chengqian immediately interrupted the conversation between the two.
"Although Jun Cheng is not on the same road as his grandfather, it is not inevitable that he has anything to do with those things, in order to avoid suspicion, Jun Cheng still stays in place to treat his injuries, and when his injuries are healed, all the slaves bought and sold by Xia Guozhang are verified, and if you confirm that Jun Cheng has nothing to do with this matter, you can join the army."
Zhang Chengqian glanced coldly at Zhang Junji, who was weak-hearted, and continued to order without smiling.
"Jun Ji revealed that he was meritorious, so he allocated 1,000 people from 40,000 recruits to you to find the remaining Xia family slaves, are you willing to share my worries?"
If it weren't for Chen Shanhe leading 45,000 soldiers and horses, and he still needed Empress Chen to take care of the affairs of the harem and the royal family, he would definitely let Zhang Juncheng tell the Chen family's charges in public.
At the moment, although he did not explain, he also made his attitude clear.
The Chen family should also be restrained, if it is shameless...... He didn't mind arranging another errand for the eighth child to thoroughly investigate the Chen family's crimes.
"Father...... Erchen ......"
When Zhang Junji showed a reluctant expression, Zhang Chengqian's face immediately darkened.
"It doesn't matter if Jun Ji doesn't want to take on this errand, there must be many people among the princes who are willing to take over this matter."
How could Zhang Junji give the credit to Zhang Juncheng to death and give away the opportunity to solve a competitor.
No matter how unwilling he is, he can only kneel on the ground to receive his life.
"Obey the orders of my father, my sons will not dishonor the emperor's orders, and catch all those who have bad intentions!"
"Okay."
Zhang Chengqian waved his hand a little irritably.
With such a large military power of 40,000 recruits, it is like a piece of fat in front of the evil wolf, and everyone wants to pounce on it and take a bite.
If there was no Xia Guozhang, he really wanted to divide some military power to the eighth, and now, even Xia Guozhang, who used to seem respectful and obedient to him, wanted to go past him behind his back and push the eighth to the throne, who else is credible here?
The military power of 40,000 recruits, he can only control it in his own hands!
"All the recruits are under the direct command of me, and they will continue to advance towards Juxian after the army! It's all scattered......"
"Report!"
Before Zhang Chengqian's words were finished, he was interrupted by an exclamation from the scout order, fell off his horse, and knelt in front of the royal sword.
Zhang Chengqian, who was putting on the emperor's big frame, glared at the scout order he had pulled up with his hand dissatisfied, and asked impatiently: "What happened again?" ”
Could it be that the rebel son regretted catching up after sending him 40,000 new soldiers when he learned the news that he had led his army to crusade?
"Back to Your Majesty, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here to greet you! ”
Rumble.
One stone startles a thousand waves.
Everyone present was terrified, especially the people of the Chen family, who were even more like great enemies.
Zhang Junji, who was just about to order troops to thoroughly investigate the matter of Xia Guozhang, also didn't care about fulfilling the emperor's order, so he hurriedly walked to Queen Chen's side, saw the queen mother's face and comforted in a low voice: "Queen mother, the overall situation is important, you must not provoke Zhang Junlin in person because of the death of your second brother." ”
It is said that Zhang Junlin's martial arts realm has already been at the third order.
If the queen mother was poisoned by Zhang Junlin because of a disagreement, he would not be valued by his father, and without the support of the queen mother, the road in the future would only be more difficult.
Empress Chen took a deep breath, glanced at her eldest son who was worried about her, and smiled with relief: "Jun Ji, don't worry, even if the queen mother doesn't think about herself, she has to think about your future, endure the calm for a while, the queen mother can endure Mo Qing in those years, and endure that rebel son for more than ten years, can't she still endure this time?" ”
Zhang Junji nodded busily.
It is best for the queen mother to be able to carry it clearly.
"Son-in-law Zhang Junlin, specially brought the corpse of the second prince to meet his father!"
A loud voice echoed in everyone's ears like a thunderbolt on the ground.
Zhang Chengqian followed the prestige.
Hundreds of meters away, only one silhouette could be seen.
But even if he was so far away and couldn't see the face of the rebel son clearly, Zhang Chengqian could still clearly feel that this rebel was no longer the same person as the waste who was about to be poisoned in the palace before.
Faced with a son who knew nothing, Zhang Chengqian became extremely cautious.
Without saying a word, he stared at the rebel who was gradually approaching but no one dared to stop him, wishing that he would strike on the spot and kill him.
Zhang Junlin walked alone to the front of the royal palace, jumped off the horse, handed the long sickle into the hands of the palace supervisor, lifted his robe, knelt on one knee, and shouted loudly and powerfully.
"My father sent an army of 100,000 to Zhenzhou, but he deliberately returned to Jinling to negotiate with the Western Chu envoy group?"
Zhang Junlin raised his head with interest and looked at the Dog Emperor who was sitting on the imperial throne and was about to sit still.
Zhang Chengqian knew that this rebel was no longer a fuel-efficient lamp, but he didn't expect this rebel to take him as soon as he opened his mouth.
He was silent, looking at this close but unfamiliar rebel who looked like he had met for the first time.
The same is true for Zhang Junlin.
I haven't seen you in a long time.
The heroic "father" in his memory, his face became slightly swollen and faintly blue, and his breath was short, and he didn't know whether it was breathless or shortness of breath.
There is a vague feeling of being hollowed out by the color of wine.
Seeing such a dog emperor, Zhang Junlin couldn't help but suspect that he didn't need to make a move at all, and if it dragged on for a while, he didn't know if the dog emperor would kill himself.
He glanced generously at the new fisherwoman who was riding with him.
is indeed a bewitching beauty, I heard that Empress Chen specially collected it in order to appease the anger of the Dog Emperor, it is difficult not to make him think that the Dog Emperor's body at this time is slightly ill and has something to do with Empress Chen.
Whatever.
It has nothing to do with him anyway.
"Father's ......"
"Don't call me Father! Come! Take this rebel down on me! ”
Zhang Chengqian pointed at Zhang Junlin and shouted violently.
Even if there were palace guards surrounding Zhang Junlin, there were even three layers of people in the Chen family who surrounded him.
Zhang Junji was mixed in, and quietly pulled out a dagger, wanting to fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to kill Zhang Junlin with one blow.
Suddenly, his body was cold and his hair stood on end, and before he could react, the whole person had been carried forward by a strong suction, knocking over the guards and house slaves gathered here, and heading straight for Zhang Junlin.
