Time Travel: The Useless Prince, First Destroy the Princess

Liu Zhao and Ma Zhuang had already reached the gate of the West Palace. A few guards in the distance saw the lights and shouted, "Who is it?"

"Ma Zhuang, the Tiger Guard General!"

Ma Zhuang stopped in front of Liu Zhao at this time and showed him the token.

"Ma Zhuang?"

Ma Zhuang just arrived at the palace for duty today. Not every guard in the East Palace knows about it, let alone the West Palace.

"Who are you?" Ma Zhuang shouted sternly.

"Captain of the Western Palace Guards, General Shen Gang!"

The guard looked at Ma Zhuang and then at Liu Zhao.

"Who is he?"

"This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Great Jing Dynasty. Why don't you kneel?"

"Prince?"

Shen Gang was obviously a little surprised. The prince came to the West Palace in the middle of the night, and his purpose was obvious.

Moreover, many people are not clear about the prince's appearance and are somewhat skeptical.

"What? Why don't you kneel down and salute when you see the prince?" Ma Zhuang shouted sternly.

"Kneel down?" Shen Gang was obviously speechless. What's there for this idiot to kneel down for!

"How dare you disrespect His Highness? What crime should you take?"

Shen Gang was obviously a little confused, but he glanced at Liu Zhao.

"Under orders, no one is allowed to enter or leave the West Palace without the Crown Princess's order!"

"Looking for death!" Liu Zhao was furious. Even the guards obeyed Sima Yu's orders. How could this be disgraceful?

Ma Zhuang saw Liu Zhao's face change and immediately understood what he meant.

"Ma Zhuang, anyone who dares to disobey my order will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After Ma Zhuang finished speaking, he already had a knife in his hand.

The five opponents looked tall and strong, and Liu Zhao was a little skeptical whether Ma Zhuang could defeat them.

"So what if he's the Crown Prince? Anyone who enters this West Palace will be killed without mercy!"

Shen Gang glared at Liu Zhao.

As he spoke, he pulled out the knife. There are five of us, so why should we be afraid of just one of you?

"Ma Zhuang, kill without mercy!"

Liu Zhao was very angry.

If I don't kill someone to establish my authority, how will I survive in the East and West Palaces in the future?

"Yes!"

As soon as Liu Zhao finished speaking, Ma Zhuang had already swung his knife.

Then he swung a knife and Shen Gang's head was immediately separated from his body.

The head rolled to the side, but the body was still standing, with the knife half-raised in its hand.

His body then fell down, blood gushing out.

The four ordinary guards behind were stunned for a moment.

They all drew their swords and got into fighting stances.

"Anyone who refuses to kneel before His Royal Highness will be killed immediately!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

The four guards are strong men and horses, with sharp swords and extremely powerful fighting abilities.

How could the captain of the guards be so vulnerable?

He knelt down instantly.

Liu Zhao felt horrified when he saw the body being torn apart.

But there’s nothing to be afraid of!

Ma Zhuang’s martial arts skills seem to be really good!

"Listen, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll spare you. If you show disrespect again in the future, I'll kill you without mercy!"

After Liu Zhao finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and walked to the gate.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" The four guards were terrified. They were not afraid of the prince, but of the ruthless Tiger Guard General.

But I was very confused. Wasn’t it said that the prince was a fool?

Why doesn’t it look like that?

"Listen carefully, His Highness is about to enter. You must guard him well. If there is any mistake, I will grind you to dust!"

Ma Zhuang warned again sternly that although he was not the leader of the guards in the East and West Palaces, he was much more powerful than these soldiers!

We also need to establish our authority!

Otherwise you won’t know who is the boss in the future!

Shen Gang just happened to become a stepping stone for the two men to establish their authority!

"My subordinates dare not!"

Ma Zhuang was a fifth-rank Tiger Guard General, and these guards were just ordinary soldiers. Their leader was dead, so of course they didn't dare to act rashly.

The gate of the West Palace was closed.

Only then did Ma Zhuang step forward and gently shake the doorknob.

At first there was no movement. Ma Zhuang increased his strength and then heard a woman's voice: "Who?"

It seems that no one has been here for a long time and the palace gates have become rusty!

The maid was too lazy to open the door.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived, why don't you welcome him quickly?"

Ma Zhuang shouted loudly.

"Prince, Your Highness?"

The maid was obviously panicked and heard rustling sounds.

After a while, he slowly opened the door.

"Your Highness, Cairen is sleeping!"

The maid lived outside and obviously had no time to inform Xie Chan.

"It's okay, I'll go in by myself!"

Liu Zhao's memory is not very good, and he hasn't been here for a long time.

The route is not very familiar.

Looking at the houses, Liu Zhao hesitated and stood still.

"Your Highness, do you want to see a talented person?"

The maid asked softly.

"Of course, do I still want to see you?"

"Your Highness, spare your life!"

The maid was so frightened that she fell to her knees and begged.

With Sima Yu's temper, if he heard the joke made by the prince, his life would be in danger.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in you. Take me to see Xie Chan!"

Liu Zhao didn't quite understand these titles in the palace, so he didn't care!

"Your Highness!" The palace maid knelt on the ground and was still a little hesitant.

"What? Are you afraid of that bitch Sima Yu?"

Liu Zhao asked sternly.

"Your Highness, spare your life!"

"You are afraid of Sima Yu but not me?"

Liu Zhao said angrily.

The palace maid was already trembling.

"Look outside, that's what happens when you disobey!"

Ma Zhuang bent down and said to the palace maid.

"Ah?" The palace maid looked up in shock and saw a corpse lying not far away, and suddenly screamed.

He immediately stood up and said in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, the talented person is here!"

Ma Zhuang smiled and said, "Your Highness, I will be guarding outside the door!"

Liu Zhao nodded. Ma Zhuang was not only an excellent weapon, but also seemed to be good at dealing with people. He was a talented person.

"Report to the General of the Central Army! What should we do with the body?"

At this time, four guards came forward cautiously.

"Buried in a secluded place outside the city!"

"But she's gone now. How can I explain this to Lord Liang?"

Liang Ji was the highest-ranking officer of the Western Palace guards, and several guards were very afraid of him.

"How else do you need to explain your disrespect to the prince?" Ma Zhuang asked back.

Of course he knew Liang Ji, who was just the General of the Right Guard, just like Tang Dan.

In charge of the West Palace guards.

It seems that the person who killed him will not let it go!

Come on then!

Ma Zhuang took a deep breath. He was the one appointed by the emperor!

"Yes!" The four guards did not hesitate.

He quickly found tools and soon dragged the guard's body out to deal with it.

Tang Dan was rushing to Qingyun Pavilion at this time. He was working hard for his future!

King Liu Heng of Song was depressed when he returned home. It seemed that his dream of becoming the crown prince was becoming increasingly slim!

Unless there is a mutiny!

He immediately sent someone to write a superstitious letter and report it to King Zhenbei to discuss countermeasures.

Shanhai went home and found a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote first: Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but the Buddha remains in the heart.

I just kept writing down the lines, but even after writing hundreds of lines, I still felt that none of them were good!

These two lines of poetry seem ordinary, but they contain hidden meanings!

Could it be that the prince himself is a person of great wisdom?

The Buddhist scriptures just happened to open his eyes!

Shanhai certainly wouldn't suspect that Liu Zhao was pretending to be stupid!

The one I am most worried about is Wei Huan!

He went home and called his three sons Wei Mi, Wei Heng and Wei Xuan together, and told them what had happened during the day.

Daughter Wei Jin, upon hearing Wei Huan sighing after returning home, also came to the living room.

Seeing his father's worried look, he asked, "Father, brother, what's wrong?"

Although Wei Jin is a girl, she has been regarded as the apple of Wei Huan's eye since she was a child, and she is proficient in all kinds of arts, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

As the only daughter in the family, she is cared for by her brothers.

Although it was something that only men could discuss, Wei Huan didn't mind his daughter listening as well.

Although Liu Yan would keep this in mind, he would be more careful in the future and nothing serious would happen.

However, Sima Bei, who basically didn't speak at the banquet, would definitely add fuel to the fire in front of Liu Yan.

And his daughter is the Crown Princess, and she has a bad reputation. If she returns to the East Palace and finds out that I said "It's a pity for this seat", she will definitely find fault with me!

If the prince succeeds to the throne, the Wei family will probably be in great danger!

I couldn't think of a solution for a moment, so I could only sigh and swear never to drink again.
