Ming Dynasty: I risked my life to teach the prince, the emperor begged me not to die

Chapter 160 I Will Let You Die

This is Yin Ping'er's revenge. So, Yang Mingniao will never let Chen Ce go.

No man can endure such humiliation. She said this on purpose, she wanted Chen Ce to die!
As for whether the Jinyiwei can save you from death, that is not her concern.

Yin Ping'er was in a good mood. She left Yang's house with a smile on her face, and was still feeling smug when she returned to her mansion.

……

The fourth day of March is the Cold Food Festival in the lunar calendar. It is customary to sweep tombs and worship ancestors.

At first, according to custom, it was not allowed to light fires during the Cold Food Festival. However, after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, burning yellow paper to commemorate ancestors became a custom.

The streets were filled with people dressed in various costumes of exorcists and shamans, and the sounds of onlookers and vendors on both sides, shouting and performing were endless.

Chen Ce's parents were buried in Hangzhou Prefecture. He had not been back for a long time. There was only a plaque in Huaihua Hutong.

I went to the street market tonight and bought some yellow paper, planning to burn some for my parents.

A team of Dongchang guards passed by Chen Ce at this time. Yang Mingniao borrowed fifty armored and knife-wielding guards from Yang Peng's men tonight and headed straight for Huaihua Hutong.

Chen Ce looked at this group of people with some curiosity, but since it was none of his business, he didn't ask too many questions.

When he opened the door to the courtyard, Yang Mingniao stared at Chen Ce's back with hatred, and suddenly waved his hand and said, "Catch him!"

Sonorous!

The long sword was unsheathed and placed on Chen Ce's neck.

The sound of the sword being unsheathed startled Mrs. Wu who lived next door. After the window was opened, Mrs. Wu was stunned for a moment, and then she quickly lowered the window.

She didn't know how Yang Mingniao found her.

Did his mother and brother go to find him?
That's impossible. The East Factory beat them badly in the past, and they don't have the courage to provoke the East Factory again.

"Come out!"

"Come out here!"

Yang Mingniao's hysterical shouting alarmed the neighbors. The lights were turned on and then quickly turned off. Every household hid in their rooms and dared not show their heads again.

Chen Ce still hadn't figured out the situation. Looking at the nearly crazy Yang Mingniao, he was puzzled and asked, "Sir, do we have any misunderstanding?"

"Did you catch the wrong person?"

Yang Mingniao said coldly: "Little bastard! Do you know how hard I have been looking for her?"

"She said she would marry me if I helped her settle the case."

"And she ran away?"

"For her sake, I asked my uncle to overthrow a doctor and a deputy doctor in the Ministry of Justice, and finally sentenced her to sever ties with her mother."

"I did something for her, and she ran away?"

Chen Ce had long known that Madam Wu was the original Mancang'er, and he knew about this case.

But there is another layer of relationship here, which Chen Ce had not expected.

I thought that old case was over.

Madam Wu has been living in seclusion for many years. If no outsider had told on her, who would have known that she lived here?

Yang Mingniao swung the scabbard hard at Chen Ce's face, making a crisp sound, without any reason at all.

"You little bastard, why are you still hooking up with that little bitch when you already have a woman?"

Chen Ce felt pain and was already weak, so he started coughing loudly.

"He's still a sick ghost!"

"Cang'er, is this the man you're looking for?"

Whoosh!
A dagger flew towards Yang Mingniao. Madam Wu jumped down from the next room, holding a broken blade in her hand, and killed the Dongchang guards standing on both sides of Chen Ce one by one.

She glanced at Chen Ce's cheek, her eyes red, and without saying a word, she rushed straight towards Yang Mingniao with the dagger.

"Go out the back door."

While the two sides were fighting, Madam Wu spoke hastily.

"Bitch, you actually know martial arts?"

"Catch her! Alive!"

Yang Mingniao had never expected that Mancang'er's martial arts skills were so superb that he could fight against fifty foreign soldiers without losing at all.

Seeing that the situation was not right, he pointed at Chen Ce and said, "Catch that sick guy!" Before Chen Ce could leave, he was caught by the Dongchang men again.

Yang Mingniao slapped Chen Ce's head hard and said to Wu Niangzi in a stern voice: "Keep killing!"

"Every time you swing your knife, I'll chop off one of his fingers!"

"Put down the knife!"

The broken blade in Wu's hand fell to the ground. She stared at Chen Ce with deep guilt in her eyes and murmured, "I'm sorry."

Yang Mingniao covered his bleeding shoulder and pulled out the dagger fiercely.

"You're so cruel, bitch!"

"You dare to kill your husband? This is against the will of heaven!"

Chen Ce coughed violently a few times before calmly saying to Yang Mingniao, "Although I am just a commoner, I have several acquaintances in the Jinyiwei."

"I will just pretend that your bullying today never happened and let the matter be over. How about that?"

Yang Mingniao looked at Chen Ce like a monkey, tapped his cheek with the dagger, and smiled: "Jinyiwei? Do the dogs of the East Factory know?"

"Did you know that the guards in the East Factory were all transferred from the Imperial Guard?"

"You're using the Jinyiwei to scare my Dongchang? Do you fucking think I was brought up by being scared?!"

Madam Wu knew Yang Mingniao's character and said hastily, "Everyone has his own responsibility. I started this incident, so it has nothing to do with him."

"If you have any problem, come to me, and let go of those who are irrelevant."

Yang Mingniao looked at Madam Wu playfully, and said with a dark smile: "Cang'er, look at you, aren't you quite infatuated?"

"Why didn't you do the same to me in the beginning?"

"Love, huh?"

"Let him go, right?"

"Okay, strip!"

"Take off your clothes piece by piece now!"

Yang Mingniao sneered, "I want to see what this sick guy can do. I'll let him see his woman being humiliated. What can he do for you?"

Chen Ce weighed the pros and cons, and finally sighed and said to Wu Niangzi: "You are a master in martial arts, pick up the knife and kill him."

"You know I won't live long. Don't let me be insulted like this. Death is only a matter of time for me."

It seemed like just a moment, and Chen Ce made the decision.

Although it was only a moment, Chen Ce thought a lot. Making such a decision meant that all his ambitions and ideals to train the prince and change the Ming Dynasty would be in vain.

But it doesn’t matter.

The Ming Dynasty did not need to be saved, it just lost a sick man.

"Pick up your knife!"

Chen Ce spoke sharply and said to Madam Wu: "I don't need your charity!"

"Get out!"

Yang Mingniao laughed and said to the Dongchang guard, "Make way for her. I want to see if you will leave."

"If you take one step forward, I'll stab him!"

Chen Ce stared at Yang Mingniao and said indifferently: "I don't know you, and I don't know who you are, but if Chen is lucky enough to survive, even if you are a noble, I will send you to the eighteenth level of hell!"

Madam Wu was silent for a moment, then she took off her coat and threw it aside with a resolute look in her eyes.

"you!"

"Cough cough!"

Chen Ce stared at Wu Shuxian.

Madam Wu said calmly, "My affairs have nothing to do with you!"

"Good, good, good!" Yang Mingniao applauded, "Mancang'er, you are doing very well!"

At this moment, a noisy sound of footsteps was heard from Huaihua Hutong.

Yang Yuzhen led a group of Jinyiwei and rushed out of the courtyard in a hurry!
