The atmosphere in the handsome tent suddenly became solidified.

Ma Shiying and Zuo Menggeng's rejection made everyone present jump in their hearts, knowing that a conflict was imminent.

The British Duke said coldly: "What, are you trying to disobey your life? Your Majesty is the master of yourselves. Are you trying to disobey Your Majesty's intention?"

Facing the questioning of the British Duke, Ma Shiying was a little panicked, but immediately returned to normal and said, "The British Duke is such a bad word. Your Majesty has indeed appointed you as the chief general, but the army that Your Majesty asked you to command is the 50,000 troops under your command, not the troops under our command! Whether it is my Fengyang Army or the army of General Zuo, it is all entrusted by Your Majesty to command us, so what does it have to do with you?"

Anyway, it has reached this point, and Ma Shiying doesn't want to continue talking nonsense, so she simply explains everything clearly.

It means telling the British Duke that we give you face, so we obey your command, so you should not be too arrogant.

The power to withdraw military power? This power of military power is absolutely impossible to give you!

After hearing Ma Shiying's words, the British Duke sneered: "Now in the midst of the Ming Dynasty, you only know the acre of three-point land in your hand. No wonder Your Majesty always worry about the current situation of the Ming Dynasty. You and these ministers are simply not worthy of being ministers of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zuo Menggeng also sneered and said, "This is a bad thing for the British Duke. My father stationed in Hubei, making Zhang Xianzhong stand in a dilemma; Governor Ma defended Fengyang, so that Li Zicheng could not go south to attack Jiangnan; it would be fine if you don't say our contribution, but you are still criticizing us here. What's the reason? If you don't think you need to join forces with us to attack Jinan, then everyone will be disbanded!"

After Zuo Menggeng finished speaking, everyone present changed their faces.

Zuo Menggeng's words are already very obvious. If you don't talk nonsense about the power to withdraw military power, we will leave directly to see what you can do!

The British Duke was furious and slapped his head: "You dare!"

Zuo Menggeng was not showing any weakness, and directly glared at the Duke of England.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shi Kefa quickly stood up to smooth things over: "Why are you so excited? Everyone comes for the Ming Dynasty. If there is something to say, your Majesty will not be happy if it is spread."

The name of Emperor Chongzhen is still useful in bringing out some of the effects. At least from the expression, both sides have eased a lot.

Ma Shiying was watching this scene from the side, and she was also a little nervous.

Ma Shiying and Zuo Menggeng are different. The one with the surname Zuo is just a military leader from Liaodong. He has slowly gotten up and controlled the military power through the years of suppressing the Li Zicheng uprising. It can be said that he is barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, so he certainly dares to fight against British justice.

But Ma Shiying was a serious official son. He passed the imperial examination with the famous scholar Ruan Dacheng, and made it step by step from the civil servant class.

Even if he had something in his heart, he could not break the rules of the Ming Dynasty in this way, and he should not have broken the face with the Duke of England, the current head of the Ming Dynasty, so directly.

No matter how quarrel is, it is not the same as quarrel.

The family named Zuo just wants to live with military power, and Ma Shiying will still want to join the cabinet and become the minister in the future.

Ma Shiying's eyes fell on Zhu Cilang inadvertently, and suddenly his heart moved.

Yes, isn’t there any other prince?

Ma Shiying hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please say something. Please rest assured that I and General Zuo are absolutely loyal to the Ming Dynasty."

Ma Shiying's words mean very simple, just to let Zhu Cixuan come out and smooth things over.

The British Duke and Zuo Menggeng refused to listen to Shi Kefa's words, but they had to give face to the words of His Royal Highness Zhu Cixuan, right?

After Ma Shiying finished speaking, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Zhu Cixuan.

Up to now, Zhu Cilang has a very lack of presence. His Royal Highness seemed to be invisible, quietly watching the British Duke and Zuo, and Ma argued.

After hearing Ma Shiying's words, Zhu Cilang also laughed.

"Since Governor Ma wants me to speak, then... I will say a few words."

Zhu Cixuan stood up, walked to the horse, left and the other two, and spoke slowly.

"I have actually seen the current situation clearly. Governor Ma, you and General Zuo, are the main thing that you have the military power in your hands and don't want to let go, right?"

As soon as Zhu Cilang said, Ma Shiying was stunned.

No, I asked you to smooth things over, why did you come up and talk about us?

Ma Shiying hurriedly said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince has misunderstood. In fact, we are waiting for the orders of His Majesty. We cannot hand over the military power at will before we get the new order."

Zhu Ciyang smiled and said, "Don't Governor Ma know? My father said before the British Duke set out that all the Ming army was under the command of the British Duke. Could it be that Governor Ma wanted to resist the order and refused to obey it?"

This sentence immediately forced Ma Shiying to the corner, making him very embarrassed.

But soon, Ma Shiying made a decision.

In this chaotic world, military power is the most reliable!

Ma Shiying gritted his teeth and said, "Although the old minister respects His Highness very much, he cannot give up the military power that His Majesty can take over by his side. Please forgive me!"

Zuo Menggeng also said: "If Your Majesty really has orders, I will definitely hand over the military power, but in this case, please forgive me and others for being rude."

Zhu Cixuan looked at Ma Shiying, then at Zuo Menggeng, and finally looked at dozens of generals and officials of all sizes behind the two, and then couldn't help but sigh.

"Why do you have to do this?"

The next moment, Zhu Cilang's face suddenly changed and he shouted coldly: "Come here, take down Ma Shiying and Zuo Menggeng, two traitors who did not obey the orders!"

After Zhu Cilang finished speaking, many soldiers of the Prince's Personal Guard rushed into the tent and directly controlled Ma Shiying, Zuo Menggeng and all the generals under his command.

It is not that no one has ever thought of resisting, but it is obviously not enough to see the numerous prince's personal guards.

Ma Shiying's face changed drastically. He really didn't expect Zhu Ciyang to turn against him so suddenly. He couldn't help but shout, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Zhu Cilang smiled and said to Ma Shiying, "What are you doing? It's this point, why does Governor Ma still ask such nonsense? What I did is of course seizing your military power!"

From Zhu Cixuan's perspective, he hated such a person who held military power tightly and wanted to be a local warlord.

All the military power is controlled by you warlords. How can I control the Ming Dynasty when I become emperor in the future?

So Zhu Ciyang discussed with the British official in advance that if Ma Shiying and Zuo Menggeng were unwilling to hand over the military power, then he would take them down on the spot!

Someone is going to ask, can’t we use softer means?

The answer is of course, but it is not necessary.

Why is it unnecessary? Because Zhu Cilang is systematic and is an absolute b.

Since you have already started cheating, what tricks will I still play with you? I will directly criticize you in the face. If you are not convinced, I will have the system to help you!

It's so simple and crude, and it's just right.

Zuo Menggeng was also extremely surprised and shouted to Zhu Cilang: "Your Highness, if you do this, if Your Majesty knows, he will definitely not be happy!"

Zhu Cilang laughed loudly, walked to Zuo Menggeng, and raised his hand to slap the other party in the face.

Bang!

Five fiery finger marks suddenly appeared on Zuo Menggeng's right cheek.

Zhu Ciyang said coldly: "You guys who want to be warlords have the face to mention my father to me? I will tell you directly, your father Zuo Liangyu, my father has long wanted to kill him!"

Zuo Liangyu, a perfect waste, Li Zicheng can't beat him, and Zhang Xianzhong can't beat him. He knows how to fight for power and profit all day long!

Zuo Menggeng was buzzing by Zhu Cilang's slap, and when he heard Zhu Cilang's murderous words, he was stunned.

After a few seconds, Zuo Menggeng shouted hysterically: "You are forcing my Zuo family to rebel. Does your Ming Dynasty want Jiangnan anymore?"

Zhu Cilang laughed loudly and slapped Zuo Menggeng on the left face again, blocking all his remaining words in his mouth.

A traitor who can only surrender to the Qing Dynasty dares to force Lailai in front of this palace!

"Zuo Liangyu dared not rebel because his most precious son is still in my hands. But then again, what if he really rebels? Can't I destroy his smackling crowd?"

Zhu Cilang and Zuo Menggeng's words were heard by others in the big tent, and they also shocked everyone.

Everyone could clearly hear that Zhu Ciyang was tempted to kill Zuo’s father and son!

Zhu Cilang walked to Ma Shiying with a smile and took out a pistol from his waist slowly.

Although Ma Shiying had never seen the Sand Eagle pistol, it did not prevent him from guessing what kind of weapon it was immediately, and his face was immediately in a dirt and he screamed.

"Your Highness, don't kill me, I'm wronged, I'm wronged!"

Zhu Cilang smiled sarcastically.

"I am wronged, why did I wronged you? Did you wronged me and didn't want to hand over military power, or did you wronged me and want to learn from the Zuo father and son and be a warlord who has self-respecting troops?"

With a click, Zhu Cixuan pressed the safety and directly pressed the barrel on Ma Shiying's forehead.

"Governor Ma, you have two choices now. First, hand over the military power honestly and then survive. Second, continue to resist stubbornly, and then this palace will destroy you with one shot here, kill the chicken to warn the monkey, and then clean up the mess of your 50,000 troops!
