"What on earth do you want? If you want money, I will ask someone to get it for you. Tell me how much you need. As long as I can get it, I will give it all to you." Zhou Yanru stared at Wang Zijin and said.
Wang Zi raised his left hand and patted his forehead, and said with an unhappy look: "At this point, why does Mr. Zhou Ge have to act here with me? Don't you know what I am? The second sedan chair! "
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the sedan behind Zhou Yanru.
Seeing this, Zhou Yanru's heart sank.
"There is only one of my colleagues in the sedan chair. He has been sitting in the sedan chair because he has been caught in the cold recently and cannot see the wind." Zhou Yanru made up a random story.
He would not hand over the crown prince in the sedan until the last moment, because he didn't know whether the other party was deceiving him or really knew something.
Wang Zizi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He said: "What a great official! I can have the first and second assistants of the Ming Dynasty cabinet accompany me. I really don't know who can make you two like this." Why don't you bring him out so that I can meet this high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty?"
"I have said that the people in the sedan chair are infected with the wind and cold and should not be exposed to the wind." Zhou Yanru refused.
Once the other party knows that the person sitting in the sedan is just a child, there is no guarantee that the other party will not guess the identity of the person in the sedan.
Wang scratched his own head and said, "Mr. Zhou Ge, do you really think that I don't know that the person in the sedan is Zhu Cihong, the crown prince of Emperor Chongzhen?"
It’s over!
The first reaction in Zhou Yanru's mind was these two words.
The other party even knew that the person in the sedan was the crown prince, which meant that these people were completely prepared.
"Why didn't Mr. Zhou Ge stop talking? Could it be that I was right and you feel embarrassed, or are you trying to make up a reason to deceive me?" Wang Zibing said sarcastically.
Zhou Yanru looked up at Wang Zijin and said, "You have misunderstood. There is not a crown prince in the sedan at all, but a colleague of my own."
"I really admire you officials. You have been exposed, but you are still here with your stubborn mouth. No wonder you officials are so shameless and tell lies casually." Wang Zibing was angered by Zhou Yanru's harsh words. Laughed.
If he hadn't known the exact identity of the person in the sedan before he came, he might have been deceived by Zhou Yanru's hard words.
"What do you want?" Zhou Yanru knew that he could no longer hide it, so he asked the other party's purpose straight to the point.
Wang Ziqing touched the gun on his waist with his right hand and said, "My purpose is very simple. Leave the person to me so that Mr. Zhou Ge and Mr. Wen Ge can return home."
"No, this is the crown prince, and I cannot hand it over to rebels like you." Zhou Yanru said with an awe-inspiring expression.
At this time, Wen Tiren also walked up from behind.
He said: "It is impossible for us to hand over the crown prince to you, so just give up on this idea!"
"You two think you can stop us?" Wang Zi took out the gun from his waist and loaded the medicine in front of Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren.
Zhou Yanru's eyes twitched when he saw this.
He had just seen the power of a handgun with his own eyes. His old arms and legs simply couldn't bear it when something like this hit him directly.
Wen Tiren on the side swallowed his saliva.
The example of being hit by a gun was right in front of him, and he was not willing to let himself experience it personally.
"I don't want to embarrass you two, and I hope the two elders won't embarrass me." While speaking, Wang used the gun to pound the medicine in his gun. "The elders of the previous dynasty may not be effective in this dynasty."
Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren glanced at each other subconsciously.
Although the crown prince is important, it may not be as important as his own life. Although the two of them want to be loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, they do not want to sacrifice their own lives.
Among them, Zhou Yanru said: "We can hand over Huang Taiji to you, but you must promise not to harm the crown prince's life."
"Oh, you people, your buttocks are covered with mud and you still think you are clean, that's all. I can promise you that I won't do anything to you, the crown prince, for the time being." Wang Zijin said to the man in front of him unceremoniously. The two men were sarcastic.
Zhou Yanru took a step back and said, "Take this person away!"
As he spoke, he made a large circle to the side to avoid Wang Zizi and others, and then walked towards the door of his house without looking back.
"Brother Yusheng, wait for me." Wen Tiren hurriedly chased after him.
Zhou Yanru had already left, and he didn't want to be left alone to face the Tiger Flag people, and he just handed over the crown prince, feeling more or less ashamed.
Wang Zijin did not ask anyone to stop Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren from leaving, but walked directly towards the sedan in the middle.
"Press the sedan chair." Wang Zi said to the bearer of the second sedan chair.
Even the two pavilion elders ran away, and the bearers did not dare to say anything and cooperated with Wang Ziyi honestly.
The Crown Prince Zhu Cixiang who was in the sedan was taken out from the sedan.
"Are you the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty?" Wang Zi looked up and down at the child in front of him.
This was the first time he met the future heir of Ming Dynasty.
"Who are you?" Crown Prince Zhu Cixiang looked at Wang Zixi nervously and immediately asked, "Where is Mr. Wen Ge? He said he would take me to Mr. Zhou Ge's house. Where are the others?"
"For such an old man, you can speak in such an organized manner. It seems that you are really the crown prince." Wang Zizi smiled and praised the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.
As for whether the identity of the crown prince was in doubt, he didn't think it would be false. The person who spread the news in the palace would not lie to him with false news, just like another prince was also taken away.
He has been operating in the capital for so many years, and he has also placed people in the palace, and there are more than one.
"Take our crown prince and let's go." Wang Zizi said to his men, and then led them towards the alley where they came from.
Their departure was all seen by Zhou Yanru.
Zhou Yanru, who returned to the mansion, did not go far. Instead, he hid behind the mansion door and stared at the situation outside through the gap in the middle of the mansion door.
"What should we do? The crown prince has been taken away!" Wen Tiren said nervously.
Their purpose was to take Ming's heir to Nandu to inherit the throne, thereby maintaining their power. Now that the crown prince was gone, there was no need to worry about power.
"What can I do? How dare you chase him back!" Zhou Yanru said angrily.
Although not many people knew about the fact that the Crown Prince was taken out of the palace by them, there were still some people who knew about it, otherwise how could the people in the Tiger Flag know everything about it.
If you go to Nandu at this time, let alone maintain your power, you may be punished for trapping the crown prince.
