In the hall, except for the lifeless man who had his back to the hall door, Man Gui and several of his officers could see that there were brocade guards and eunuchs among the few entourages who followed the young man who suddenly broke into the banquet hall.

Rao is Man Gui, who has always been known for his courage and bravery, and the moment he guessed Chongzhen's identity, he was also sweating and speechless. Man Gui, who has no background in generals, and has gone from a soldier to the general soldier of the town guard, although he is often called brave by civilian officials, but he is too rude and disdainful, but in fact he is a bold and careful person.

Otherwise, among the more than 100,000 Liaodong troops, how could he be seen by Sun Chengzong and Wang Zhichen successively, and praised by Yuan Chonghuan and Mao Yuanyi, and thought that it was necessary to build the Ningyuan defense line.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Man Gui's first thought was to clear up the relationship between himself and Wusheng and ask the young man for his guilt.

But when the words came to his lips, he was a little speechless, and he had no life to make great contributions from the time he went out with him to repair the Ningyuan defense line.

After being transferred to his side as a personal guard, he blocked a lot of fatal injuries for him on the battlefield several times, and it can be said that he is his most trusted subordinate.

If he took the initiative to abandon his lifelessness, would his family still be as desperate as he used to protect himself on the battlefield in the future?

But at this time, in order to resist Chongzhen's anger without his life, he was also a little hesitant. In the current Ming Dynasty, a military general who offends a civil official may be punished and imprisoned, not to mention that he has made such a disrespectful act to the emperor now.

As a military general, being rude to the emperor and being known by civil officials must be an undoubted capital crime. If he comes out now, it may only make things even more out of control.

Man Gui's silence made several of his subordinates dare not speak out, and they all let go of the woman next to him and adjusted their bodies to a position that is easiest to get up from.

Just wait for the time when there is no more action, so as to step forward in time to stop it, so as not to let this disaster affect the handsome or himself.

In Chongzhen's reprimand to his entourage, Wuming turned his head and glanced at it suspiciously. Although he accompanied Man Gui to visit the eunuch in Liaodong, a character like him couldn't even enter the eunuch's mansion, so he couldn't see Wang Chengen's eunuch identity.

However, he recognized the appearance of the two brocade guards. He suddenly thought that the young man who took action to stop him was a relative of a certain Jinyi guard.

Although Wusheng didn't take his life seriously, he didn't want to implicate Mangui because of his recklessness.

He restrained his anger, arched his hand casually at Chongzhen and said, "It turns out that you are the master of Jinyiwei." Count me rude, it's not enough to accompany an adult. ”

Man Gui looked at Wuxing's actions, and finally put his heart back in his stomach, thinking: "As long as you can coax Your Majesty, let Wuming go away when you go out." Afterwards, His Majesty could not find anyone, and at most he just reprimanded me. ”

Zhu Youzhen looked at the fainted maid and the singer who was guarding her, and then looked up at the lifeless with a deep scar on the left side of his face and said.

"Shouldn't you apologize to them first?"

"Don't go too far, my lord. Do you want me to apologize to the two officials and slaves? Are you trying to humiliate me in this way? ”

Hearing the words of the young man in front of him, the anger that Wuming had suppressed rose again. The bloodshot scar on his face from anger seemed to have come back to life as if it had turned into a centipede.

Not only did Wuming feel angry, but the few officers sitting in the hall were also a little uncomfortable.

Li Yuexian, who just felt that she was going to die, looked at the scene in front of her, for fear of making things bigger again. She hurriedly lowered her head and begged: "It's all the slaves' mistakes, which annoyed this general, please don't be angry with the general and the nobles." ”

Zhu Youzhen didn't care about Li Yuexian's words, and he didn't look at the lifeless hideous face fearlessly, and asked very calmly: "Apologize to them because you did something wrong, what does this have to do with humiliating you?" ”

Wuming clenched his fists tightly, tried to maintain the last shred of sanity, and said word by word: "I am fighting for life and death with Jiannu outside the gate, guarding the border for Your Majesty, is it not even comparable to a few officials, slaves and maids in the eyes of adults?" ”

Man Gui knew that he couldn't let his family talk anymore. If you continue to talk about it, you can only offend Your Majesty more deeply, and you will be suspicious of Your Majesty if you stand by and watch.

"No life..."

Man Gui only shouted one name, and was interrupted by Zhu Youzhen. He turned a blind eye to the emotion of lifeless rage and said, "If your wife, mother, sister, and children are treated like this, can you still insist on doing this?" ”

As soon as Chongzhen's words were finished, Man Gui and the other officers secretly screamed that it was not good and stood up suddenly.

But Wusheng was faster than them, he pulled out a meat-cutting knife from the case, put it on the young man's neck, and said angrily: "If you dare to mention my family again, no matter who you are, Lao Tzu will kill you today." Do you know what Lao Tzu's name is? Lao Tzu called no life, and Lao Tzu's life was not wanted seven years ago. ”

The change happened too suddenly, and Man Gui and several subordinates couldn't stop it, and they immediately stood on the spot. Man Gui was sweating profusely, and now he not only didn't dare to make any moves, but he didn't dare to reveal Chongzhen's identity.

However, Man Guisheng was afraid that Chongzhen would be irritated again, so he said: "Wusheng put down the knife quickly, you will go back to Liaodong for me now, if this adult is investigated, I will bear it alone." This lord, please don't mention the lifeless family, when the city of Shenyang fell, the lifeless family escaped from him alone. ”

When Wuming put the knife on Chongzhen's neck, he had no way to live. Even if Chongzhen let him go, those officials who guessed the emperor's thoughts all day long would have to kill him.

The meat cleaver of this era, in Zhu Youzhen's eyes, is just a relatively blunt piece of iron, but it is enough to cut the major arteries in the neck.

Facing the edge of life and death in front of him, Zhu Youzhen found that he didn't seem to be able to burst out of that fear of death, but he wondered strangely, if this knife went down, would he return to the original world.

Seeing that the young man in front of him finally closed his mouth, lowered his gaze, and fixed his gaze on the hand-solving knife in his hand, Wusheng finally felt a little happier in his heart.

Although he has never taken his life seriously, he has no intention of dying here like this, if he wants to die, he should die in Liaodong, and die on the same land with his family.

He also knew that his actions could no longer stay in the army, and he didn't want to affect the marshal, so he didn't even look at Man Gui and his colleagues, and sneered: "What, are you dumb now?" Lao Tzu does things alone, if you want to take revenge on Lao Tzu, remember that Lao Tzu's name is called..."

Zhu Youzhen suddenly raised his head and interrupted him, "Vent your anger on them, what is the difference between you and those Jiannu, venting the pain of your family to them, can you resurrect your family?" ”

Wuxing's face was pale, and the knife in his right hand was even more forward, and he shouted in a low voice: "What do you rely on, do you really think that Lao Tzu will not dare to touch you?" Now even if you are the emperor Lao Tzu and there are millions of male soldiers under your command, Lao Tzu only needs to send one forward, and he can cut you off. ”

"Don't be impulsive!" Man Gui and several of his subordinates all spoke out to stop him. Several officers even picked up the small food table in front of them, and wanted to throw it to Wusheng, but they were afraid that they would accidentally injure Chongzhen, which would be a hundred deaths, so they stood there holding the food table.

"Rely on, isn't my reliance just you?" Zhu Youzhen said calmly.

This unexpected answer made Wuming a little stunned, and he was suffocated by the momentum that he wanted to hurt people just now.

He subconsciously asked: "What"

Zhu Youzhen replied quickly: "Aren't you a sergeant of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

A mocking smile appeared on Wuming's face and said, "Because I'm a sergeant of the Ming Dynasty, you can give orders to me?" ”

Zhu Youzhen raised his hands: "Have I taken out any waist cards and asked you to obey my orders?" Or did I show you who I am and use my power to coerce you to apologize? ”

Wuming just paused, then frowned and said, "What the hell do you want to say, don't want to play any word games with me." ”

"Didn't you join the army so that the people of Daming would no longer suffer the same misfortune as your family?"

Wufang's heart twitched violently, but he still said strongly: "I'm here for revenge, no..."

I felt a feeling of chest tightness and shortness of breath. The voice suddenly fell low and could not be heard. Zhu Youzhen felt that the blade on the side of his neck was a little farther away, and he understood that the person in front of him had already hesitated in his heart.

"Revenge? How do you want to get revenge? Kill those slaves who killed your family? Or do you want to completely eliminate the Jianzhou Jurchens who provoked wars for no reason and slaughtered the people of our Ming Dynasty? Zhu Youzhen asked aggressively.

Wuming opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound, and after a while, he said hatefully: "Naturally, we want to let the Jianzhou Jurchens turn into powder, so that we can take revenge." ”

"Without the support of the people of the Ming Dynasty, if you want to make the Jianzhou Jurchen turn into powder, will you be alone? Liaodong consumes tens of millions of taels of grain a year, accounting for almost one-third of the Ming Dynasty's tax revenue.

The clothes on your body, the shoes on your feet, and the armor and weapons used by Jiannu in battle, didn't that come from the people of the Ming Dynasty? What qualifications do you have to vent your anger on the people of the Ming Dynasty who have to pay wages when they are hungry? ”

The young man's questioning made Wusheng suddenly feel that his anger became very ridiculous. He tilted his head to look at the maid on the side, and saw the fear in Li Yuexian's eyes. A wave of shame welled up in his heart, "Is this what he relies on?" It turned out that in their eyes, he was no different from Jiannu. ”

He seemed to take a few steps back uncontrollably, away from the boy in front of him. Seeing that Wusheng finally left Chongzhen's side, Man Gui and several subordinates suddenly rushed over and isolated Wusheng from Chongzhen.

Zuo Fu and You Shiwei even caught Wu Life one left and one right, took the hand relief knife in his hand, and searched him more carefully. Wuming lowered his head and was at the mercy of the two, not knowing what he was thinking.
