Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

After all, the prince has not yet ascended the throne, and he certainly does not have the jade seal and tiger talisman in his hands.

Thinking of this, Zhan Beiting felt secretly proud in his heart. He was just a young boy, so why should he be afraid of him?

Compared to the prince, he still had at least a few troops in his hands, and the emperor was still in a coma. It might be that his people were too cruel and used too much poison.

Zhan Beiting thought about it and couldn't help but feel contempt in his heart again. How could a yellow-haired kid beat him?

All the civil and military officials in the court were in chaos because of the prince's return. Those who were loyal to the emperor were naturally ecstatic, while those who had lined up in advance felt guilty.

General Zhan doesn't have the tiger talisman or the jade seal, but the prince is the legitimate heir to the throne, so it's not easy to make a choice.

If you are not careful, it could be a serious matter that could cost you your life.

The news that came out before was that the prince was missing or killed, and Zhan Beiting acted as if this was indeed the case. Some smart ministers couldn't help but start taking sides.

"General Zhan, what are you thinking about?" A cold question reached his ears. Zhan Beiting shuddered and looked up.

I saw Crown Prince Mingzhao looking at me leisurely, waiting for my reply.

He couldn't help but calm down, and bowed and replied, "Your Highness, I was just thinking how great it is that you're back. When you disappeared earlier, I was terribly worried. I thought you'd met with some misfortune. I sent people out to look for you for a long time but there's been no news."

Zhan Beiting looked at Ming Zhao with sincerity and excitement, as if he was really a good subject who was loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

"Oh? Really? So General Zhan cares about me so much?" Ming Zhao glanced casually at the ministers in the court and responded casually.

"Of course, the prince is the crown prince of our Yilan Kingdom. Only with the emperor and you, Yilan Kingdom will prosper." Zhan Beiting continued.

"Really? General Zhan, do you really think so? Wasn't it General Zhan who ordered the assassination of me?" Ming Zhao asked in a playful yet calm tone.

As soon as the words came out, not only Zhan Beiting, but all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked, surprised that the prince was so straightforward.

Although most people had some guesses in their minds, no one dared to speak out loud.

Besides, even if the prince is the crown prince, he is still young after all, the old king is not yet awake, and most of the people in the palace are controlled by Zhan Beiting. The prince is still inexperienced and too naive.

Just be polite and take it slow. Once you are strong enough, it will not be too late to fight back.

Anyway, Zhan Beiting doesn't have the tiger talisman and the jade seal, so it's difficult for him to win the support of the people. There are still many loyal ministers in the court. It's impossible to kill all the ministers and subjects of Yilan to silence them.

All the civil and military officials in the court looked at the prince worriedly, and then looked at Zhan Beiting nervously, not knowing what to say.

Zhan Beiting's pupils shrank slightly, he was shocked at first, and then sneered in disdain.

The prince probably hasn't figured out the situation yet, as he dares to question me in public.

"Prince, I dare not." Zhan Beiting casually bowed to the prince and replied casually.

At this moment, Zhan Beiting no longer had the humble look he had before. After figuring out everything, he immediately came back to his senses and stared at Ming Zhao calmly to see what he would do next.

When the prince saw his appearance, his face was expressionless and he did not show any emotion. Zhan Beiting actually admired his performance in his heart.

"I think General Zhan is very brave. I have detained some assassins who are chasing me. Why don't you ask them if they know General Zhan?" The prince smiled faintly.

Zhan Beiting didn't care at all and nodded in agreement, bowing and saying, "I hope the Crown Prince will not be fooled by the traitors and restore the innocence of this minister."

Those assassins who were hunting down the prince had long been wiped out by his men, leaving no one alive. Even the assassin leader who had seen him had been wiped out by his men. There was nothing to be afraid of.

The prince gave a sarcastic smile and said "Okay".

The ministers all became excited. This was a large-scale confrontation. What a strong prince! Not to mention anything else, his bravery and courage alone were worthy of their loyalty.

Another wave of Zhan Beiting's supporters were a little nervous, but when they saw that Zhan Beiting remained calm and confident, they felt relieved.

Judging from General Zhan's appearance, he must have prepared a foolproof plan. The prince is still young.

The two young men beside the prince waved outside the hall, and several assassins dressed in black, who were already in a very miserable state, were pushed in. When they saw Ming Zhao, they staggered and fell down.

The leader looked up and was about to speak when he saw Zhan Beiting.

This man looked as if he had seen a savior. He crawled over on his knees and shouted excitedly, "General, General, save us!"

All the civil and military officials in the court were in an uproar!

What's happening here?

Could it be that General Zhan really has something to do with the killers? This is not surprising. What is surprising is that these killers actually betrayed them in order to save their own lives.

All the civil and military officials in the court were filled with curiosity about gossip, and they looked forward to Zhan Beiting's reply.

The smile on Zhan Beiting's face froze when the killers came in.

How could that be? Didn’t the subordinates say that everything had been cleaned up?

How come this person is still here?

Zhan Beiting took a step back unconsciously, then quickly reacted. He forced himself to calm down and said, "Who are you and how do you know me?"

Are you planning to deny your responsibility?

Hey, this guy!

The ministers began to complain in their hearts while continuing to watch the fun, with excited expressions on their faces not concealed at all.

When the prince saw this scene, he also felt amused.

The atmosphere was so tense, but suddenly it became relaxed.

After Zhan Beiting finished speaking, he turned around and looked at his personal deputy general outside the hall. How could this useless thing do anything!

After searching around but still not seeing the deputy general, Zhan Beiting became even more angry.

The leading killer was very angry when he saw that Zhan Beiting refused to admit it.

"General, you can't pretend you don't know us. That day in the secret room of the General's Mansion's study, you instructed us on how to hunt down the Crown Prince. You said at the time that the Crown Prince must not be allowed to return alive. Why are you denying your responsibility now?"

The man spoke in a rapid and earnest tone, and he looked as if a lovesick woman was accusing a heartless man, which made all the ministers in the court who were watching the show shout in their hearts with pleasure.

Zhan Beiting was also frightened by the man's tone and hurriedly took a few steps back. Seeing the various strange looks from the ministers around him, his heart tightened and he shouted at the man in a stern voice, "What nonsense! This general has been loyal and patriotic all his life. How could I let you hunt down the prince? This is nonsense!"

Seeing this, the killer leader also became anxious.

Assassinating the prince is no small crime, it is worthy of the execution of the entire family. It doesn’t matter if I and these brothers die, but I cannot implicate my family.

Before they came, they were told that as long as they gave out the mastermind behind the incident, their families would not be implicated. Of course, their lives would not be saved.
