Chapter 32: Wrath
The leading man in bronze mask and black chimpered with a crooked neck after speaking. After the rest of the men in black received the order to retreat, they retreated like a tide in an instant.
In the inner courtyard of Jun's mansion, there were only two corpses on the ground in an instant, as well as the man in black who was seriously injured by Jun Chen's kick and had not had time to retreat. The man in black struggled to his feet and tried to escape.
Jun Chen jumped up one zhang high in an instant, stepped three zhang away, grabbed the foot of the man in black with his right hand, pulled him down, slammed him to the ground, and then stepped on his chest, and asked coldly: "Say, who sent you?"
He didn't answer, and struggled in pain on the ground for more than ten seconds, and then, breathless.
"......" This is the fate of the killer, Jun Chen didn't speak, just shook his head helplessly and sighed, turned around and walked into the study.
The night is still the dark night, the wind is quiet, the sound has stopped, and everything is silent.
If it weren't for the blood-soaked corpses in this house, no one would have believed that a thrilling life-and-death battle had just taken place here.
Looking at the corpses in one place, except for the three corpses of the men in black, the rest were all veterans, wounded soldiers, and remnants who had followed him all the way over the years. They were all once predators, who had made great contributions to the Great Chen Dynasty, they had all suffered from the pain of war, their families were ruined, and they were the pride of the Great Chen Dynasty, and some of them had high martial arts, but because of their old age, they became dead souls under the sword of this group of assassins.
Jun Chen's anger burned his hair without wind, and his eyes flashed blood-red. The reason why these people were arranged here is because Jun Chen wanted them to be able to stay away from the battlefield and spend their old age safely, but an assassination destroyed all this, and Jun Chen's idea and the dreams of countless soldiers after retiring were shattered at this moment.
Jun Chen looked at the corpse in this place dementedly, unable to return to his senses for a long time, a tear slipped down, reflecting sadness, remorse, and helplessness.
Jun Chen froze motionlessly, completely unaware of the passage of time, and the sky gradually turned from dark to dark......
After waking up in anger, Jun Chen gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, his face returned to calm again, surprisingly calm, and after confirming the safety of his father Jun Xiaozhen, he stepped out of Jun's mansion in full clothes and hurried towards the Jinluan Palace.
(Every time I write this kind of heart-wrenching scene, I am very sad, sad not only the plot, but also the helplessness of not wanting to write like this but having to write like this, although most of the plot of this book is entirely based on imagination, but it is difficult to think of the coherent plot, try to have a beginning and an end, and everything has a source of the natural development.) I want to make the plot as realistic as possible, as close as possible to real life, and understand the sadness, regret and helplessness that reality brings to people.
Of course, it is the same to jump out of the mortal world in the future, only the closest to real life, the most real story can move people, isn't it? Many of the plots in my book are inspired by reality, and then change the power and identity of the scene to amplify. οΌ
......
In front of the Imperial Palace of Chengtian Castle.
"See the general!" the guards who kept vigil at the gate of the palace bowed and clasped their fists and saluted Jun Chen.
"Well, did you find any suspicious people outside the palace just now?" Jun Chen asked.
"General, everything is normal!" replied the guard.
"Well, send someone to inform the first patrol of the Jingshi patrol room-God Hunting Cheng Feng, there has just been a murder in General Ben's mansion, let him help find out what the origin of this group of people is. Jun Chen's eyes narrowed as he spoke, and a murderous aura naturally revealed.
"No. The guards received the order and immediately sent people to rush to the patrol room, and Jun Chen stepped into the palace.
Jun Chen walked quickly to the dormitory of the young emperor Chen Tianbao.
Chen Tianbao was meditating outside the dormitory, when he saw Jun Chen hurriedly come in and said, "Oh, big brother, it's not yet time for the early dynasty, why did you come over?"
"Your Majesty, last night a group of assassins attacked my mansion, and many of the guards who had followed me who had retired from the army over the years were killed. Jun Chen said.
"Who did it?" Chen Tianbao asked, "I, punish them nine clans!"
"According to my preliminary judgment, it may be someone from the Northern Xiao Kingdom, and I have already handed over the patrol room to inspect the scene, but I am not reconciled, all the forty-nine retired soldiers who have made great contributions to Da Chen in the Jun Mansion have been killed. Jun Chen said indignantly.
"Is the person so strong? Actually killing people right under your nose. "Chen Tianbao.
Jun Chen sighed: "They are all well-trained masters, all of them are above the Tongfan Four Heavens, and the leader is the master of the Tongfan Five Heavens." It was easy to deal with a group of old and weak, and if it weren't for the fierce wind at that time, I wouldn't have felt it so late. β
Young Emperor Chen Tianbao asked with concern, "Big brother, is your father fine?" β
Jun Chen bowed and arched his hand: "Thank you for the emperor's concern, my father is not injured!"
"I understand, big brother, don't worry, no matter who it is, even if they are behind Xiao Guojun or not, I will never let them go. Chen Tianbao said.
"Second brother, since they can assassinate me, they may also assassinate you, although the palace masters are well-guarded, you must also be careful. Jun Chen said.
"Don't worry, if you don't come, just come! Come one, kill one, come two, kill double!" Chen Tianbao's eyes surged with murderous intent.
"Okay, I won't participate in today's morning court, I'm going to discuss countermeasures with Gongsun Yu and give them all a catch! I will never let go of any assassin. Jun Chen said.
Chen Tianbao nodded: "Okay, then I won't go to the court, I will discuss countermeasures with you." β
When Jun Chen, who had just taken a step, heard this, he immediately turned around and said, "Second brother, you promised me that you would stick to the early dynasty." β
"Okay, I know that I can't fool it!" Chen Tianbao waved his hand helplessly.
Junchen left in a hurry, while the young emperor Chen Tianbao went to have dinner and prepared to meet the minister in the imperial study.
In the imperial study, the ministers were restless, very anxiously waiting for the arrival of the young emperor.
"The emperor has arrivedβ" With the eunuch shouting, the young emperor Chen Tianbao stepped into the imperial study.
"The ministers and others knock on the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" the minister of civil and military affairs immediately knelt down and saluted.
"Flat. Chen Tianbao raised his hand very casually, sat on a chair in the middle of the study, and said with a displeased face, "Everyone, Aiqing, speak as much as you want!"
"Back to the emperor, a group of assassins came to the capital last night and attacked the monarch's mansion at night. Fortunately, the forbidden army general Jun Chen's miraculous skills left three corpses on the ground, according to Cheng Feng, the first patrol god in the capital, two of the corpses were identified as killers sent by Beixiao, and one was Yan Xing, the killer of my Da Chen. Yan Xing took refuge in the emperor's second brother King Haiding two years ago, and King Haiding is now dominant in the east of Dachen, and his strength cannot be underestimated. Prime Minister Xu Qian said.
"Oh?" Chen Tianbao thought for a moment after hearing this, "The news of the divine arrest, is it true?"
Xu Qian said: "Back to the emperor, God hunts Cheng Feng to do things always pay attention to evidence, if you are not sure, you dare not draw conclusions, after all, human life is a matter of heaven! And Cheng Feng is also quite famous in the rivers and lakes, and he is relatively clear about the things on the rivers and lakes, and after the verification of the patrol and arrest of the four little dragons, he will definitely not make mistakes!"
"Hmm. Chen Tianbao nodded and said, "Chen Tianrui, the king of Haiding, my imperial brother has always been at odds with me, my father had many conflicts with me when he was there, and he has always held a grudge against me, and now he has secretly conspired with foreign enemies to assassinate my Dachen court official. But after all, he is my second brother, and I will warn him in a letter!"
"Your Majesty, King Haiding has a secret plan for the enemy country, you must guard against it! Think about it now, he dares to send someone to assassinate the forbidden army general around the emperor, and he will ...... in the future" Speaking of this, Xu Xianzhi did not continue with great interest.
"Chen Tianrui?" the young emperor's eyes narrowed as if thoughtful, "Although he has lost his way and has secretly colluded with foreign enemies and has bad intentions towards me, he is my second brother after all, and his father has said many times during his lifetime that he must not kill each other, and this matter cannot be discussed again." β
Xu Qian continued to admonish: "Your Majesty, this matter can be revealed, but the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and the emperor should deal with it." β
"Oh, according to the prime minister, how should I deal with it?" Chen Tianbao said, "But no matter how you deal with it, you must not hurt my second brother's life." β
"Back to the emperor, you can strip off the official position of removing the king of Haiding, leave only the prince's vacant position, transfer to another city, and then take advantage of the situation to send someone to take over the military power in his hands. "Xu Xian's way.
"Okay, Prime Minister Lao will handle this matter!" Chen Tianbao nodded in agreement after hearing this, "Is there anything else?"
"Your Majesty, through this matter, you have found that the authority of the princes in the east, west, north and south is too large, and it is inevitable that some people will be disobedient, and the emperor can knock other princes along the way. Prime Minister Xu Qian admonished again.
"Hmm. Chen Tianbao nodded, "What else do you have to play?"
"Back to the emperor, no!" Xu Qian said.
"It's okay, let's retreat from the court!We must find out all the killers and behead them for public display!"
"No, Weichen retires!" The civil and military officials bowed and retreated.
"I know that you are a loyal person, big brother. After the ministers retreated, Chen Tianbao sat on the dragon chair and said, "The person who came immediately drafted the order." β
"Noβ" The eunuch immediately took the blank decree and respectfully placed it on the table.
Chen Tianbao quickly waved his pen on the holy decree, and finally took out the jade seal and covered it very chicly.
"Alright. The young emperor rolled up the holy decree and said to himself: "As long as there is the eldest brother by my side, I feel that everything in the world is not to worry about at all, but for some reason I have always had a bad premonition recently, especially when I heard that the eldest brother's mansion was attacked, this premonition is getting stronger and stronger." β
"......" Chen Tianbao scratched his ears and cheeks, "Ah, I have a headache, I still don't want to, go and watch singing and dancing!"
......
At noon, Jun Chen walked out of the Beicheng Guard barracks, and his complexion was obviously much better. Junchen walked step by step to an inconspicuous restaurant, ordered a few dishes and asked for a few pots of wine, and poured himself a drink.
"Yo, our general is so leisurely today!" Guo Feiyan walked from behind Jun Chen at some point and sat opposite him.
"Feiyan, it's not peaceful in the capital during this time, you have to be careful!" Jun Chen said.
"You, are you caring about me?" Guo Feiyan said.
Junchen didn't explain: "Drink some with me!"
"Okay, don't you sleep with you to eat and drink!" Guo Feiyan blinked.
