Wandering the Heavens

I originally thought that the two sides would fight here and the battle would not end until dozens of people died. Who knew that it would be resolved with just dozens of feather arrows without even any casualties.

After everyone was taken away, Yu Xian covered himself with a wet cloth and went in to see the scene inside. Several old men followed suit and covered their mouths and noses with wet cloths, fully demonstrating the Chinese people's love of watching excitement.

The smoke in the room had almost been dispersed as the humidity increased and the doors and windows were opened. Even the antiques in the room were messed up when they fainted.

"What a pity! How much money will this cost?"

When Yu Xian expressed this emotion, Zhu Gaochi's eyes lit up and he quickly asked Yu Xian for these things.

"Commander Yu, how about leaving this place to me if it's no longer useful?"

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Yu Xian had never seen such a member of the Zhu family. Others always felt justified in asking him for things, including Zhu Cixi, whom he had raised. It was his first time meeting someone so humble, and he was a little uncomfortable.

"Since you agreed, go to the Ministry of Revenue and ask Minister Xia to come!" Zhu Gaochi quickly instructed the eunuch who was close to him.

This scene made everyone speechless. Xia Yuanji had done so many things, but it was worth it for him to come here in person for such a small shop.

“Your Highness, there’s no need to ask Minister Xia to make a personal trip. Just take it if you like.” Yu Xian didn’t know what to say.

While everyone was struggling, Zhu Gaosui quietly put an unburned feather arrow in the corner into his sleeve and hid it.

"That's great, hahaha, thank you so much!" Zhu Gaochi almost took off the wet cloth covering his mouth and nose.

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it!" Yu Xian felt a little ashamed.

Now everyone was even more speechless. The emperor went to the grassland every few days and you were in charge of the country's internal affairs. You could get millions of silver taels by writing a casual note. But now you are so excited about a small shop and the pile of junk in it. You don't act like an executive vice emperor at all.

Zhu Zhanji looked at his father like this, his eyes became more and more dim. How could he be a match for his second uncle and third uncle? Zhu Zhanji always felt that it was because of his grandfather's favor that his father's position as the crown prince was guaranteed, so he couldn't stand his father's cowardice, and sometimes even felt ashamed.

As soon as Yu Xian returned to the imperial prison, the imperial guards reported the loss of the special arrows to him. After confirming it again and again, he knew that someone must have secretly taken it away. Among the four people, except Zhu Gaochi, the others were suspects.

Fortunately, Yu Xian also prepared the antidote at the same time. However, just in case, he still found an opportunity to report to Zhu Di and handed over the special antidote.

When Xu Bin woke up, he found himself tied to a pillar and had no strength left in his body.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Yu Xian, the current commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard." Yu Xian was sitting in a chair and sipping tea leisurely.

"Running dog!" Xu Bin said weakly.

"Let's talk business. Where is Jianwen?" Yu Xian ignored his insults.

"I know nothing." Xu Bin looked at the young man in front of him proudly.

"Commander, how about we let our brothers give him a feast first before you interrogate him?" A Jinyiwei with good eyesight came to ask for instructions.

"No need. You tortured him and made the floor dirty and you still have to clean it up. By the way, what was the name of the girl we caught two days ago? Where is she?" Yu Xian seemed to have remembered something.

"Her name is Sun Ruowei, and she is locked up in the women's prison." The Jinyiwei answered with a smile as if he had remembered something good, and licked his lips.

"You...what did you do to her?" Xu Bin began to struggle, but the drug in his body made him unable to exert any strength.

"That's right, it's what you thought. Are you reluctant to do it?" Yu Xian's face also turned wretched.

"You beast! Shameless! You will die a horrible death!" Xu Bin cursed.

"Stop scolding me. If you have the energy to do that, you might as well tell us the truth about Jianwen's whereabouts!" Yu Xian put away the playful smile on his face.

"Just kill me, just kill me!" Xu Bin gave up struggling.

"For people like you, death is the cheapest thing. This commander will make you live a life worse than death! Until the day you tell us the whereabouts of Jianwen. It doesn't matter if you don't tell us. There are dozens of people anyway, and there will always be someone who knows how to deal with the current situation." Yu Xian ignored him and left the cell directly after he finished speaking.

"Seal your mouth about what you said in prison today, especially about the female assassin. Otherwise, if you get yourself killed, don't blame me for not reminding you!"

After leaving the cell, Yu Xian hurriedly instructed the Jinyiwei who had just agreed with him.

"I will definitely keep it in mind!" The Jinyiwei responded hurriedly.

Yu Xian didn't say anything else, but left the Jinyiwei Yamen and went straight back to the house given to him by Zhu Di, but he didn't expect Zhu Zhanji to visit him.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"No thanks. I want to ask you, what did you find out from those people you arrested today?" Zhu Zhanji's nose was looking up at the sky at this time.

"May I ask Your Highness, is this the Emperor's order or is it something Your Highness wants to know yourself?" No one else is trying to act so high and mighty right now.

"How dare you question what I said?" Zhu Zhanji didn't expect that Yu Xian, who had given him face a few days ago, would refuse to ask at this moment.

"I dare not. I am working for the emperor. As long as the emperor gives an order, I will definitely carry it out." Yu Xian was trying to use a big banner to show off his power.

"Are you using the Emperor to pressure me?" Zhu Zhanji's face became even uglier.

"Your Highness might as well make your words clear. It's easy for me to deal with this. But if the civil officials find out, he will not be able to escape the charge of forging an imperial edict. And it's not impossible that the King of Han will take advantage of the situation and mobilize his subordinates to impeach the Crown Prince." Yu Xian's words were even more unpleasant.

"What do you mean?" Zhu Zhanji felt that things were out of his control.

"There's a saying among the people that a forced melon is not sweet. If the Crown Prince wanted to taste the melon, why not just force it? Why would he risk the world's condemnation and even do something as rebellious as forging an imperial edict?" Yu Xian said nonchalantly.

"What do you know?" Zhu Zhanji was a little upset.

"Just give her this thing to take." Yu Xian took out a small porcelain bottle.

"But you said that a forced melon is not sweet." Zhu Zhanji's hand was very honest. He snatched the small porcelain bottle and put it in his arms, looking around for fear of being seen.

“As long as it’s edible, why do you care whether the melon is sweet or not?” Yu Xian had no idea where the dog-licking attribute of a crown prince came from.

It is strange to say that the Zhu family, from Zhu himself to his descendants, has a hard time describing relationships between men and women. However, the only two people who are unclear are Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Yijun. One deposed Queen Hu and enthroned Queen Sun, while the other favored Concubine Zheng. Then one ruined the rising national fortune of the Ming Dynasty, while the other ruined the Ming Dynasty...

"Will she..." Zhu Zhanji still couldn't make up his mind.

“Your Highness, just say that all the people captured today have been executed by this commander, and you plan to capture and behead her as well. After scaring her, say that you can’t bear to separate her body and head. Take out the medicine I just gave you and say it is highly poisonous, so that she will die more quickly.” Yu Xian even told him the method. If he doesn’t wake up, he will be hopeless.

"Then, I'll try." Zhu Zhanji nodded.

Watching Zhu Zhanji's slowly leaving back, Yu Xian suddenly felt that she had done a great deed and avoided a series of bloody events where she ran away and he chased her and she couldn't escape even if she had wings. As for worrying about whether Zhu Qizhen would be born early.

Yu Xian was not worried at all. Zhu Zhanji's fertility was questionable. His two sons were born after he ascended the throne. Besides, even if he was crippled now, Yu Xian could cure him.
