The Invincible Myth of Wuxia

Chapter 124
Fang Zhen didn't expect such a situation to happen. The prince Jiang Zhao came to the door to apologize with whether he was his brother-in-law or not.

Unsure of what the other party was thinking for a while, Fang Zhen had no choice but to say ambiguously: "Your Highness, although Lu Han is at fault, I can't punish him. Please take it back, Your Highness."

Lu Han, who was originally lying on the ground with a face ashen, was overjoyed when he saw that Fang really didn't hurt him, and wished he could stand up and kowtow to him a few times.

Jiang Zhao carefully looked at Fang Zhen in front of him, and anger welled up in his heart.

He intended to make Lu Han apologize, and he didn't want to offend the Fang family and affect his power in the court, especially the opinion of Taishang Daozong towards him.

But he couldn't stand the princess's crying, so in desperation, he had no choice but to play hard to get.

Hand over the right to dispose of Lu Han to the Fang family. In order to save the face of His Royal Highness, the punishment will not be too harsh, just go through the motions.

However, what Fang Zhen did now put him in a dilemma.

If Lu Han is not dealt with harshly, the Fang family will definitely be completely offended, and most of the neutral factions in the DPRK will lose the hearts of the people.

If Lu Han is dealt with, not only the forces dominated by the Lu family will be alienated from him, but even the princess and concubine will seek death and life with him, making the East Palace restless.

After a fierce battle in his heart, Jiang Zhao felt ruthless, and no matter what, he stopped the Fang family's mouth first.

Then he made up his mind and said directly: "If that's the case, let me do it myself."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the others to return, he continued: "I heard from my subordinates that Lu Han kicked the door of the private room with this leg, and also trampled on the table with this foot."

"In this way, I will cut off his right leg to vent my anger for your family."

After saying this harshly, under Lu Han's horrified eyes.

With a groan, Jiang Zhao pulled out Steward Xue's sword beside him, and slashed at Lu Han who was sitting slumped on the ground.

A streak of blood suddenly appeared, accompanied by the sound of howling like a pig being slaughtered.

Lu Han hugged the wound of his severed right leg, rolling back and forth on the ground in pain.

Beside him, a right calf, which had been severed from the knee level, fell to the ground alone.

Both Song Pingsheng and Fang Zhen were shocked by the scene in front of them, and thought to themselves, this His Royal Highness is really ruthless.

In order to maintain her own image and win the favor of the Fang family, she actually cut off her brother-in-law's right leg with her own hands.

This kind of disposition is worthy of being the one who fought hard to be crowned prince among the dozen or so princes, and firmly resides in the East Palace.

Manager Xue bent down and tapped a few acupuncture points on Lu Han's body to help him stop bleeding.

Jiang Zhao casually threw the blood-stained long sword on the ground, turned around and said to the other party: "Lu Han has already been punished, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the Fang family. I still have important matters in the palace, so I won't stay here." Here it is."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Fang Zhen to reply, he turned his head and left.

Before leaving, he said without looking back: "Say hello to Fang Xiangguo and the two servants for me. The gate of my East Palace will always be open to the Fang family."

Steward Xue picked up Lu Han who was crying on the ground, quickly followed the guards, and left Fang Mansion together.

But Fang Zhen bent down and bowed his hands to salute, and said to Jiang Zhao who was gradually leaving: "Respectfully send your highness the crown prince!"

After the group of people left Fang's mansion, Fang Zhen looked at the background and said with a sigh: "What a ruthless person, my brother-in-law, if you say it is useless, then it will be useless."

Song Pingsheng's expression was flat. He had seen too many such methods of cutting off the wrists of a strong man in his last life, and there were even more ruthless ones than this.

"This is normal. Although he is currently the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, he is walking on thin ice under the watchful eyes of several princes."

Fang Zhen remembered what his father had said before, and couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

Jiang Zhao, who had left the Fang Mansion, had just boarded the gate, and whispered to his confidants beside him: "You order people to keep an eye on Fang Mansion, especially that Song Pingsheng, and report to me as soon as there is any news."

The confidant quickly replied: "Of order! This subordinate will make arrangements now."

Jiang Zhao thought of all the things about the Fang family, and carefully warned: "Remember, you must be careful not to reveal your whereabouts and make the other party suspect me."

The confidant nodded, then quietly hid his figure and disappeared in place.

Jiang Zhao looked at the scenery outside the window, and heard Lu Han's moans from another sedan in his ears.

Anger was burning in his heart, and he secretly resented: When I am crowned a great treasure, I must kill the Fang family.

Not long after Jiang Zhao's Donggong Xingyuan left, Fang Jingsheng's sedan chair was carried into Fang's mansion slowly.

After changing into normal clothes, Fang Jingsheng ordered his servants to invite Fang Zhen and Song Pingsheng over when he came to the study.

As soon as Song Pingsheng arrived at the study, he saw a middle-aged man in his fifties sitting on the grand master's chair.

With sword eyebrows and star eyes, jade crown and brocade gown, his eyes revealed wisdom, and his approachable posture made people feel more cordial.

After signaling the two to sit down, Fang Jingsheng chuckled and introduced himself: "This little friend must be Song Pingsheng, a close friend that Zhener often mentions."

Then he said with admiration: "Yes, he is indeed a good-looking talent, not only talented, but also handsome, good! good! good!"

He said three good words in a row. People who didn't know it thought he admired each other so much.

However, when Song Pingsheng remembered Fang Jingsheng's face-to-face warning last night, he realized that the other party was just talking on the spot.

Immediately said modestly: "Senior Fang has praised me, but this junior should not be so praised."

After Fang Jingsheng laughed, he did not continue to flatter, but turned to the other party and said: "The prince came here today, did he give in? How did he deal with Lu Han?"

Fang Zhen recalled the scene in the living room just now, and said with a chuckle, "Father is really good at predicting things. The prince not only gave in today. He also cut off Lu Han's right leg with his own hands. When he did it, he didn't hesitate at all."

Fang Jingsheng stroked his beard lightly, and said dangerously: "It's considered that he knows how to advance and retreat, and can bend and stretch. Don't think that relying on the position of prince can ignore the existence of our aristocratic families."

"Now that the Holy Spirit is at its peak, it will not be a problem if he sits for another 30 to [-] years. It is still unknown whether he will be able to secure the crown prince."

Song Pingsheng's heart moved after hearing this, it seems that this Jiang Zhao seems to be unpopular in the court.

It seems that many ministers are not ready to make a bet yet, and want to wait and see for a while, and it is not too late to make plans when the emperor is about to die.

As if thinking of something, Fang Jingsheng said with a proud face: "Zhen'er, you don't know. During the court this morning, I read Lu Gui's book together for my father and your second uncle. Based on the evidence, old man Lu Directly demoted from Taichang Temple Secretary to Secretary of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, down three ranks in a row. Hahaha..."

When he said the last, Fang Jingsheng actually laughed out loud with pride.

However, the next thing he did, his face changed, and he said gloomyly: "It's a pity that I didn't take the opportunity to take away Lu Gui's cousin's position as General Zuo Xiaowei, and failed to crush the Lu family's power in one fell swoop."
