Chapter 334 Zhu Gaosui's Decision
Hearing that Jiang Chen wanted him to deliver something to Zhu Qiyu, Bai Ze did not dare to be negligent and spoke to Jiang Chen.
"Since it is the Marquis's request, I will definitely convey it to Your Majesty without reservation."
"That's good. Prime Minister Bai, please listen carefully."
Seeing that Bai Ze agreed to pass on the message, Jiang Chen smiled and nodded, then continued.
"I'll trouble Prime Minister Bai to tell Zhu Qiyu that I want to thank the Zhu family for the bodhi seeds!"
"Also, let's just say that I hope Zhu Qiyu can consider the people of Chunning City."
"Jiang really couldn't bear to kill innocent people."
After saying that, Jiang Chen turned around and took Li Yuanyi and a hundred soldiers from the Royal Guard Battalion back to the Northern Border Army.
But after hearing Jiang Chen's words, Bai Ze just stood there in a daze.
It turns out that it was Jiang Chen who broke into the palace and stole the Bodhi seeds!
It was the "Chen Wenyao" whom he once trusted immensely and treated with great courtesy!
After learning the truth, Bai Ze's heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
Looking at the dazed Bai Ze, the one hundred cavalrymen who followed him out of the city were all slightly shocked.
This was the first time they saw Bai Ze so distraught!
It can even be said that the blow from Jiang Chen's incident has caused Bai Ze to lose some of his faith.
Thinking of this, the cavalrymen couldn't help but sigh.
After a while, the cavalry centurion who had just sent Bai Si back to the city couldn't bear it anymore.
Then he rode his horse forward, came to Bai Ze's side, bowed to Bai Ze and said.
"Master Prime Minister, we should go back to the city."
"If it's any later, the Northern Army might seize the opportunity to capture Chunning City!"
With the centurion's reminder, Bai Ze slowly came back to his senses.
"This Prime Minister understands, follow me back to the city!"
After saying this, Bai Ze came to his senses and spoke to the cavalrymen, then turned around and led everyone back to the city.
After returning to the city, Bai Ze did not dare to delay at all and asked someone to bring Bai Si back to the mansion.
He then rode his horse straight towards the imperial city and rushed into it.
Bai Ze dismounted from his horse and ran into the palace, ignoring the obstruction of the imperial guards who were guarding the imperial city.
After arriving outside the imperial study, a group of imperial guards followed behind him.
However, without waiting for the imperial guards to continue stopping him, Bai Ze pushed open the door of the imperial study and walked in.
After rushing into the imperial study, Bai Ze bowed down to the ground.
He spoke loudly to Zhu Qiyu who was sitting on the dragon throne.
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report. I hope Your Majesty can spare some time."
Hearing that Bai Ze had something important to report, Zhu Qiyu slowly raised his head and stopped the imperial guards who were chasing him.
After gathering the imperial guards, eunuchs and maids, Zhu Qiyu spoke to Bai Ze.
"Tell me, there are only you and me here now."
After seeing that there was no one else around, Bai Ze bowed to Zhu Qiyu and said.
"Your Majesty, it is like this, Jiang Chen, the Marquis of Dingbei from Xia Country."
"I asked you to take a message to your majesty..."
At this point, Bai Ze couldn't help but become speechless, fearing that Zhu Qiyu would be furious.
Hearing that Bai Ze stopped talking halfway, Zhu Qiyu asked.
"What's the matter? Keep talking. I want to hear what he has to say!"
Seeing Zhu Qiyu asking again and again, Bai Ze could only speak hesitantly.
"Your Majesty, Jiang Chen said that thanks to the Zhu family's Bodhi seeds, he was able to break through to the peak of Hua Jin."
"And, they also said that this was to avoid involving innocent people."
"Please take the initiative to leave the city and surrender, and don't let him down."
After Bai Ze finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at Zhu Qiyu.
After learning what Jiang Chen asked Bai Ze to convey to him, Zhu Qiyu's face became ferocious.
Without waiting for Bai Ze to react, Zhu Qiyu picked up the inkstone on the table and threw it at Bai Ze.
"He, he Jiang Chen is just a small marquis!"
"How dare he speak to me like this and thank my Zhu family for their bodhi seeds!?"
"Does he really think that I and the Zhu family are something that a Marquis like Jiang Chen can deal with?"
"And you, Bai Ze, as the prime minister, are you just obediently delivering a message to Jiang Chen!?"
"Are you, Bai Ze, a subject of Bei Ming or a lackey of Jiang Chen?"
In anger, Zhu Qiyu cursed without restraint.
He didn't notice at all that there was a hint of murderous intent flashing across Bai Ze's eyes.
After Bai Ze dodged the inkstone thrown by Zhu Qiyu, he did not choose to persuade Zhu Qiyu to calm down.
Are you kidding? Zhu Qiyu has already scolded him so much, why does he still care about this guy!
Just when Zhu Qiyu was cursing with all his might and was about to pick up the jade seal on the dragon table and smash it at Bai Ze.
A loud shout came, which immediately stunned Zhu Qiyu.
"Stop making noise. Put down the national seal to me, you traitorous grandson!"
"How dare you disrespect the national seal passed down by our ancestors? I really deserve to slap you to death!"
As the stern shout came, Zhu Qiyu quickly put down the jade seal in his hand obediently.
"Granduncle, why are you here..."
Looking at the person coming, Zhu Qiyu suddenly became listless.
The person who came was none other than Zhu Qiyu's great-uncle, Zhu Gaosui.
Under Bai Ze's gaze, Zhu Gaosui walked straight to Zhu Qiyu.
He raised his hand and slapped Zhu Qiyu hard, sending him flying.
Looking at Zhu Qiyu who was blown away, Bai Ze immediately cheered loudly in his heart.
"If I hadn't come, this national seal would have been ruined in your hands!"
"You can't sit still over a small matter. You're so angry. Are you still worthy of sitting on the throne?"
Zhu Gaosui roared loudly and angrily slapped the dragon table in front of the dragon throne, breaking it into pieces.
Looking at the dragon table that was smashed to pieces by Zhu Gaosui's palm, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but be shocked.
Bai Ze on the side retreated weakly into the corner, not daring to say a word.
Are you kidding? Even Zhu Qiyu, who was at the peak of dark energy, was knocked away.
Wouldn't he be beaten to death since he has no martial arts skills at all?
Zhu Gaosui looked at Zhu Qiyu, and roared loudly with a look of disappointment in his heart.
"Zhu Qiyu, from today on you will guard the spirit in the ancestral temple!"
"From now on, you are no longer the emperor of Ming Dynasty. I will personally lead the state affairs of Ming Dynasty!"
When Zhu Qiyu heard Zhu Gaosui's decision, he was stunned for a moment.
He couldn't believe that his great-uncle would completely deprive him of his rights as emperor.
"No, no, uncle, please give me another chance!"
In panic, Zhu Qiyu knelt down in front of Zhu Gaosui and cried loudly.
Listening to Zhu Qiyu's crying, Zhu Gaosui just sat there quietly and remained indifferent.
