Chapter 407: Execute Ling Chi!

At the end of the year, the city of Jinling was very lively.

This morning, there were more than a dozen people outside Jubao Gate. They all stood there, chatting a few words from time to time, but their eyes were always looking at the south.

When the sun gradually rose, Zhu Zhanji saw a team slowly approaching.

"Xinghe Bo is here."

Someone in the welcoming team yelled, and everyone immediately turned their eyes on the team from the south.

"dismount!"

Fang Xing also saw Zhu Zhanji, and after ordering him to dismount, he went over first.

After some etiquette, Zhu Zhanji glanced at Huaemon and Zhang Quanda, and said with a smile: "These two people are called by the emperor's grandfather to meet, and Xinghe Bo is well protected."

"Someone threw stones on the road!"

Fang Xing felt a little funny when he thought of what happened on the road.

People in the south have an innate hatred for Japanese pirates, so after learning that the captives are Japanese pirates, the road has become much more troublesome.

"Brother Dehua has worked hard."

Zhu Zhanji saw that Fang Xing was tanned a lot, so he solemnly apologized.

"It's not hard work, but you've gained weight again."

Fang Xing pointed at Zhu Zhanji's face and sighed.

After the two joked with each other, Fang Xing asked curiously, "Does Your Majesty want to summon me?"

Zhu Zhanji looked at the officials of the Ministry of Military Rituals behind him, and said awkwardly: "The emperor said that Xinghe Bo's health is not very good. I have written down all the credit here. Let's go home and recuperate first."

old man! This is killing the donkey!

Fang Xing slandered a few words inwardly, then handed over the captives to the people from the Ministry of War, and ran home with the servants in a hurry.

Fang Xing only felt that his riding skills had reached the peak. After rushing into Zhuangzi, he could still bow his hands in all directions along the way.

"Uncle is back!"

The guard at the door saw the big white horse and immediately opened the front door.

The head of the family returned from an expedition with a great victory, and it was time to open the door.

As soon as the gate opened, Fang Xing lifted the rein, and the big white horse rushed in.

Zhang Shuhui knew that Fang Xing would be back in these two days, so she kept waiting in the inner courtyard.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, Zhang Shuhui and Xiaobai both got up and looked outside the gate in disbelief.

"I'm back."

As if he just went out to do some errands, Fang Xing entered the house with a smile.

"My husband has worked hard..."

Zhang Shuhui was exhausted, Fang Xing helped her up, saw Xiaobai next to her with tears in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Everything is fine, this time as a husband, I can probably rest for a while."

"Woo woo woo..."

Bell finally got rid of Xiaobai's restraint, jumped up and embraced Fang Waxing enthusiastically.

Rhubarb stretched his neck on the side, tilting his head to look at Fang Xing.

While the family was enjoying themselves, the farmers outside also came.

"Master, did you win the battle?"

Although there are rumors in the market, the hearts of these farmers are still in a state of anxiety.

The generals these days can say that they won battles, but His Majesty is not the kind of person his father is today, and he will not hide everything.

But what if you lose the battle? hehe!

It didn't take long for Fang Jielun to come out, and he said with a red face: "Everyone go back at ease, the master has done a great job in exterminating the Japanese pirates in the south this time!"

"Fang Xing really wiped out the Japanese pirates?"

Li Mao next door was a little unhappy, especially after Yan Xu came back with no face, the appeal of Li Family Academy has dropped several levels.

"Master, it's true."

The servant who came to report the letter said with a bitter face: "Today, His Royal Highness Grandson went outside the city to meet them. When those Japanese pirates were brought into the city, the people surrounded them for several streets."

It was true that several streets were besieged. When the common people heard that they were the leaders of the Japanese pirates, Zhu Zhanji's team couldn't move immediately, and countless rotten vegetables and stones flew towards the Japanese pirates.

"Run!"

Zhu Zhanji himself was almost hit by a shoe thrown by an old lady, and Yu Jia stood in front of him with a pale face, urging: "Quick, protect Your Highness to go out!"

"What are you panicking about!"

At the beginning, Zhu Zhanji was a little flustered in the face of the crowd.

But Fang Xing's words echoed in his mind immediately.

"When you are deeply loved by the people, those people will risk their lives to protect you!"

"And when you go against the grain and lose the support of the people, even if you hide in the deep palace with countless guards around you, the anger of the people will still burn you to ashes!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji raised his eyebrows and said: "Order the soldiers and horses in the five cities to maintain order and prevent stampede casualties!"

When they heard this order, the people in Wucheng Bingma Division thought they had heard it wrong.

At a time like this, shouldn't protecting the safety of His Royal Highness be the most important thing?

But the crowd became more and more turbulent. Zhu Zhanji sat on the horseback and shouted loudly: "Fathers and elders, spread out, don't hurt yourself because of a few Japanese pirates!"

"It's His Royal Highness..."

Zhu Zhanji, who came out of the encirclement of the guards, smiled and shouted: "Don't worry, these Japanese pirates will be executed sooner or later. Let's come and see. Now, everyone spread out, don't step on it." Old people and children..."

Wucheng soldiers and horses did not stop the successful crowd. After Zhu Zhanji spoke, he stopped his frantic rush.

Everyone is looking at Zhu Zhanji.

"His Royal Highness is smiling at me."

"His Royal Highness is so kind, everyone should leave, so as not to step on someone and disappoint His Highness's good intentions."

"Let's go, Your Highness has said that these Japanese pirates will be executed when the time comes, let's wait."

"Yes, yes, our Daming is not afraid of these pirates, but if His Highness is injured, it will be really..."

"..."

In just over a minute, the front of the team became empty, only some shoes remained in place.

"Let's go."

Zhu Zhanji felt as if he had realized something, which was completely different from what those great Confucian teachers taught.

"The people are the most precious, and the king is the least, but the kings of all dynasties have only used them as slogans! Whitewashing their own slogans!"

"You have to remember, although Xiaomin is light, he should not be underestimated, otherwise the former Song Dynasty will be my predecessor!"

Brother Dehua, what you said is indeed correct...

"Your Majesty, the leader of the pirates has arrived."

Zhu Di just heard about Zhu Zhanji's handling of the people's siege, nodded and said: "Bring it in, I want to see why these Japanese pirates are so stubborn!"

In Zhu Di's eyes at this time, Waguo was just a little flea, which was annoying, but it was hiding in the corner of the clothes, so it was hard to find.

Hu Guang is thinking about what Zhu Zhanji said to the people just now. In his opinion, a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. Zhu Zhanji's move is a bit unreasonable.

But Zhu Di's beard was slightly raised, looking extremely happy.

Zhu Di is not an emperor in the deep palace. Not only can he lead the army to fight, but he also disguises himself from time to time to check people's livelihood.

"Your Majesty, the leader of the pirates has brought you here."

Hanaemon and Zhang Quanda were brought in, Zhu Di glanced at them, and asked, "Why are you harassing Daming Haijiang?"

It was only after an expert translated it that Hanaemon, who had been shocked by the size of the palace, was awakened.

Is this the Ming Empire?

Hanaemon was completely taken aback, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister just listened to Ichiro's bewitching, and implores His Majesty to make amends. After the foreign minister returns, he will definitely publicize His Majesty's benevolence and Daming's... prosperity."

"Is it Daming's wealth? When you have the opportunity, are you ready to come and plunder again?"

Zhu Zhanji sneered and said: "Xing and Bo both said that you wait for the Japanese pirates to repeat their brutality and have no credibility at all. You are as hypocritical as the weeds on the wall, and you can be called a country of villains!"

Turning around, Zhu Zhanji bowed and said: "Grandfather, the Japanese pirates committed heinous crimes along the coast of our Daming. My grandson thinks it is unforgivable, so be Ling Chi!"
