Chapter 1534 The Empress Angrily Raids the Mei Family
Ah... Your Majesty?
Upon hearing Chu Chen's words, Mei Zhao immediately felt a bad premonition.
Immediately afterward, he thought of something and followed Chu Chen's gaze toward the door. The next moment, a familiar and dignified figure appeared in his sight.
"Chu Chen, you tricked me!"
"Uh... don't blame me for this. You were the one who said it. You betrayed your country and attempted to assassinate the Imperial Advisor. It seems your Mei family is finished."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards Dong Shilan: "Chu Chen greets Your Majesty."
Dong Shilan nodded without speaking, but looked angrily at Mei Zhao on the ground: "Lord Mei, I wonder if you are Lord Mei of my Great Song Dynasty or Lord Mei of the Xiongnu?"
"Your Majesty, I'm innocent... This, this is all because Chu Chen forced me to say it."
"Heh, wronged?"
After saying that, Dong Shilan waved her hand behind her, and immediately a group of soldiers escorted a Xiongnu scout forward: "Do you know this person?"
Mei Zhao looked up at the person who had come, and his face turned ashen. He thought to himself, "This is it, the Mei family is finished."
"This is a Xiongnu spy, and a skilled one at that. He was just thinking of coming in to rescue you. He's truly devoted."
Dong Shilan coldly sized up the Mei family: "Guards! Minister of Revenue Mei Zhao and his family have colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, attempting to assassinate the Imperial Preceptor. For multiple crimes, they are to be executed along with their entire family, and all their property will be confiscated..."
After saying that, Dong Shilan turned and left, giving Mei Zhao no chance to explain.
Chu Chen chuckled at Mei Zhao, then led Gou Shengzi and the other ten men out of the Mei family mansion.
As soon as Chu Chen stepped out of the house, he saw Dong Shilan looking at him with a grin.
“Brother, if it weren’t for you, this old geezer wouldn’t have admitted it.”
"But your dark-colored hidden weapon is quite powerful. What, are you hiding your skills from your sister?"
Chu Chen frowned slightly after hearing this: "Did His Majesty see it?"
“I didn’t see it, but General Tang did,” he said, and a man who looked like a servant of the Mei family appeared directly in front of Chu Chen.
It seems I underestimated Dong Shilan; Tang Yun had been lying in wait in the Mei family all along.
"Don't worry too much, little brother. Your sister was just worried about your safety, so she sent General Tang ahead of time."
Chu Chen looked at Dong Shilan with outward gratitude, then said, "Your Majesty, this thing is too dangerous. Let's go back and talk about it later."
"it is good!"
After saying that, Dong Shilan looked at Gou Shengzi and the others: "How about your guards...?"
"Sister, please don't even think about it. I only have a few brothers I can trust."
"Alright, sister won't take what belongs to others."
Immediately afterwards, the two returned to the palace together.
Upon returning to the palace, Dong Shilan couldn't wait to look at the ten-centimeter-long thing on Chu Chen's body.
"Little brother, your sister is really interested in this thing of yours. Come on, take it out and let your sister play with it."
Now that things have come to this point, Chu Chen can't hide it anymore, nor will he even think about hiding it.
He immediately took the pistol from his waist, removed the magazine, and placed it on the table.
"What is this?"
"gun."
"A gun? Why is there no gun tip or shaft?"
"This gun is not that gun; it's a pistol. You can think of it as a concealed weapon, but it can unleash a powerful sound and tremendous power."
Upon hearing about its immense power, Dong Shilan immediately wanted to try it out.
"Your Majesty, this place won't work. First, there are no targets, and second, it's too dangerous. This thing can kill with the slightest movement of a finger."
"Killing someone with just a flick of a finger." Dong Shilan's interest grew even stronger.
She couldn't wait for Chu Chen to take her to try it out. The place was easy to find; it was the Royal Hunting Grounds.
Upon hearing about the hunting grounds, Chu Chen also became interested. After all, what man could resist the temptation of hunting?
Under Dong Shilan's arrangement, she led a small team of about a hundred people, along with General Tang and Chu Chen's group, straight to the royal hunting grounds outside the capital.
Behind Chu Chen were nine people, including Gou Shengzi.
These nine men don't care whether you're an emperor or a general. In their eyes, there's only one master, and that's Chu Chen. If anyone harms Chu Chen, they'll shoot without hesitation the moment they see him.
Dong Shilan and Chu Chen were sitting in a carriage. Chu Chen was holding a pistol and had a submachine gun slung over his shoulder.
This uniform reminded Dong Shilan of the soldiers far away on the frontier.
If this item is truly as good as General Tang reported, and all our soldiers are equipped with it, then the Great Song Dynasty will be invincible and unstoppable.
At that time, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he will become the overlord of the world.
What are the Xiongnu? We can wipe them out with a wave of our hand.
Before long, they arrived at the royal hunting grounds.
Dong Shilan sat under a large tent, while in front of her, the area had already been cordoned off and was completely bare except for various animals running around wildly.
"Little brother, tell your men to test the power of your pistol?"
After listening, Chu Chen turned to look at Gou Shengzi, who immediately understood and pulled out a pistol from his waist and walked directly towards the animals that were locked up inside.
Immediately afterwards, he aimed his pistol at a roe deer.
The silly roe deer looked at Gou Shengzi as if it were something strange, examining the dark object in his hand with great curiosity.
However, the next moment, Gou Shengzi aimed directly at Sha Baozi's head and pulled the trigger.
With a gunshot, the animals inside were startled and scattered in all directions.
However, the roe deer that was about thirty meters away from Gou Shengzi collapsed to the ground and fell silent.
Everyone stared in astonishment at the scene before them, thinking it was unbelievable that such a small thing in their hands could kill the roe deer.
Moreover, it's estimated to be at least ten zhang away. Although a bow and arrow could also cover that distance, they are not as easy to carry.
After killing the roe deer, Gou Shengzi did not stop what he was doing. This time, he aimed at a wild boar about seventy or eighty meters away.
This wild boar wasn't very big; it looked like it had just reached adulthood, but it probably weighed around 100-200 pounds.
Gou Shengzi didn't intend to kill him with one shot; instead, he fired three shots at him in quick succession.
After three gunshots, the wild boar never got up again.
If we're talking about what's amazing about roe deer, then this action is truly breathtaking.
Keep in mind that it was just a small toy in his hand, while he was facing a huge wild boar.
Moreover, this time, it's estimated to be over thirty zhang (approximately 130 meters).
Dong Shilan stood up excitedly: "Brother, this is wonderful, but I heard General Tang say that the thing that kills a lot of people with a 'da da da' sound is the one on your back, right?"
