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

Chapter 513: The Zhang brothers were assassinated
On February , the dragon looked up.

Hong Zhong and Yang Yuzhen's voyage to the West set out from Tongzhou Wharf early this morning, first passing through the Grand Canal to Hangzhou, and finally turning to Taicang, Suzhou, and setting sail from Taicang.

The issuance of the new currency is imminent and has been scheduled for early April. Emperor Hongzhi has now ordered the Ministry of Revenue to publicize the issuance of the new currency in Shuntian Press to test the public's attitude.

On his way back, Chen Ce also disposed of the old house and sold it to the Zhang brothers at a low price.

In this way, there is no need to worry about the White Lotus Society's sudden attack. Although Chen Ce has strengthened his protection, he is in the open while the other party is in the dark, so he is always worried.

The Zhang brothers were also very happy. They felt that Chen Ce had finally behaved like a human being. To be honest, buying a big house for five hundred taels of silver was really a good deal.

Chen Ce secretly moved to Liuchao Street that day, and now very few people knew where Chen Ce lived in Beijing.

Liuchao Street is a quiet place in the bustling city, and is a great place to cultivate one's character.

Chen Ce always felt a little strange about the evildoers of the White Lotus Sect.

Although he destroyed the White Lotus Sect's plan to wreak havoc in Qingzhou, to be honest, such hatred was not enough to make the other party take such a big risk as to send people to the capital to the emperor, taking such a big risk just to hunt down Chen Ce.

This doesn't seem to make sense.

However, Chen Ce had no time to think about the White Lotus Sect. The Jinyiwei had already been arresting people in various places. He believed that it would not take long to catch all the evildoers of the White Lotus Sect.

During this period, Chen Ce had relatively free time.

Early that morning, a letter from Fu Yuan was delivered from Liaodong to the Zhang brothers' home. It was originally intended to be given to Chen Ce, but Chen Ce had moved away and Fu Yuan was not aware of it.

The Zhang brothers didn't know where Chen Ce had moved to, nor did they care. They hastily sent the letter to the Eastern Palace and let the Crown Prince find a way to deliver it to Chen Ce himself.

Anyway, those two guys have a close relationship, and I believe the Crown Prince will be able to find Chen Ce.

"Big brother."

Zhang Yanling was leisurely drinking tea in his new house on Zhengyang Street, enjoying the pleasure brought by his new home.

To be precise, it was the pleasure brought by the new home that I bought for five hundred taels of silver.

But he still felt something was wrong, so he asked Zhang Heling, "Do you think Chen Ce is a fool?"

Zhang Heling was shocked and said, "Nonsense! How could he be a fool?"

Ever since they met Chen Ce, they have been fooled by him. In these years, have they ever taken advantage of Chen Ce?
If Chen Ce is a fool, then what are they brothers? Aren't they worse than fools?
Zhang Heling would never allow anyone to insult him like this!

Zhang Yanling tilted his head and said, "Since Chen Ce is not a fool, why would he give us such a nice house at such a cheap price?"

These words made Zhang Heling a little alert. Yes, with Chen Ce's intelligence, there was no need for him to sell the house to him so cheaply.

Zhang Yanling suddenly shouted, "Brother! Could this be a haunted house where someone has died?"

Nima!

Zhang Heling wanted to punch this bastard to death. "Think with your pig brain! If someone is really going to die, how could the government not know?"

Right.

"Then why did he sell it to us so cheaply?"

Zhang Heling said calmly: "Isn't this simple? It's obviously because he... is dying!"

"As the saying goes, when a person is about to die, he sees through everything and no longer cares about this little property. If you transfer it to us brothers at a lower price, then I can understand."

"Hey, Chen Ce... is really a good man!"

"If his express post station can also sell five hundred taels of silver to us, then I would like to call him... a great man!"

The two brothers were deeply moved by Chen Ce's character. However, at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, followed by a burst of fire that shot up into the sky.

"Brother, is someone setting off fireworks?"

"Fuck! You idiot, that's a fucking rocket for you!"

Arrows in the sky were flaming with fire, like falling meteors, continuously falling from the sky into the courtyard.

"Oh my God! Someone is trying to assassinate us!"

"Hide now!"

The two brothers were trembling with fear. Not long after, they saw someone breaking into the mansion outside. Then they saw a group of masked men holding swords and killing anyone they saw.

The Zhang brothers were terrified. Although they had many servants in their house, they had no guards. In a short while, the house was covered in blood.

Seeing this group of assassins rushing towards the backyard, the Zhang brothers hid in the toilet and dared not move, for fear of being chopped by the other side!
Soon, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard outside, and then Duke Yingguo Zhang Mao shouted, "Catch him alive!"

"Here!"

People from the Five Military Commandery surrounded the place, and people from the Jinyiwei, the Eastern Depot, and the Inner Depot also appeared on the periphery and soon engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the assassin.

After about half an incense stick of time, all the assassins were captured alive.

They had just attempted to assassinate Chen Ce a few days ago, and not long after that, they attempted another assassination. It seemed that they were determined to take Chen Ce's life, and they didn't even care about their own life or death.

Zhang Mao said with some fear: "Fortunately, fortunately Chen Chunjian moved."

Hearing this, the Zhang brothers who had been hiding in the toilet came out in disgrace and questioned Zhang Mao, "What did you say? What do you mean by fortunately Chen Ce moved?"

Zhang Mao was very confused. Why did Marquis Jianchang and Marquis Shouning appear here?

Zhang Mao said, "Don't you know? An assassination took place here two days ago. The White Lotus demon wanted to kill Chen Ce, so the emperor asked Chen Ce to move out... No, how did you move in?"

Zhang brothers: "..."

The two of them just felt suffocated and said that the bastard Chen Ce was not that kind. It turned out that he had been assassinated a long time ago, so he sold the house to us so cheaply!
This Chen Ce is such a scumbag!
The Zhang brothers were filled with righteous indignation and shouted, "Duke Ying! Cut these White Lotus bastards into pieces! I was so scared that I almost jumped out of the toilet just now!"

Zhang Heling coughed heavily and said to Zhang Yanling: "You are so useless!"

"Brother... wasn't it you who suggested that we jump into the toilet to avoid being hunted down?"

Damn it! How could my Zhang family produce someone as mentally retarded as you? Is this something we can say? How can we still have the face to hang around in the outside world in the future?

"Duke Ying, don't make this public. We were a little anxious just now. After all, our weapons are hidden in the toilet..."

Zhang Mao laughed out loud.

"Excuse me."

The Zhang brothers blushed: "Are you laughing at us?"

Zhang Mao said: "No, absolutely not."

"You are clearly mocking us... Duke of England, you are so bold!"

"I really don't have any, hahaha..."

The Zhang brothers said angrily: "Old man, just wait for us!"
