Volume 2 The Caged Sparrow Chapter 108 I want to be a proton

Ba Zehu stared at Zhong Yebai in surprise with his eyes that were difficult to find on the plate of his big face.

"His Royal Highness the Prince wants to return to Xuandu?"

Zhong Yebai smiled and nodded.

Ba Zehu really didn't believe what he heard, and turned to look at Qingluan, but saw that Qingluan also nodded to him with a puzzled face, indicating that Ba Zehu had indeed heard correctly, and he really didn't understand why His Royal Highness the Prince would make such a choice.

His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is free by nature, and is the most notorious gentleman in the entire Great Xuan Dynasty, and likes to rely on the identity of the Prince of Chu to show off his power in the Xuandu City, and if he does not agree, he will instruct the evil slave to smash the shop on the street, how many merchants and scholars in the Xuandu will tremble when they hear the name of the Prince of Chu, and there is a clear stream bluntly saying that the emperor wants to severely punish His Royal Highness, but all of them are not stopped by the emperor, and even some old ministers are approved by the emperor to return to their hometowns.

Such a royal highness, when he arrives in the Liang Dynasty, where he is not familiar with life, can he survive?

Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne and got the assistance of Zhang Xuanyi, the head of Qingyunmen, which was a good thing for the Great Xuan Dynasty, but the Emperor of the Apocalypse actually relied on the reliance of Zhang Xuanyi, the first person under the gods, to change the appeasement policy of the previous emperors to Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, and sent an unprecedented mission to the Great Liang Dynasty on the other side of the Taijiang River, and made an alliance to send protons to each other to ask for a truce between the two countries, and directly agreed to the request of the Great Liang Dynasty to be used as a proton by Zhong Yebai, the son of the king of Chu.

Although the two countries kept this time a secret, how could the decision-makers above the court not know, especially Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, who lost his temper at that time in the Baohe Palace, the center of the empire.

But what puzzled the king of Chu was that Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, who doted on his only son Zhong Yebai very much, only lost his temper in the Baohe Palace, and then did not make any action against this matter, and even personally ordered his spoiled son Zhong Yebai that he must obey the arrangement of the imperial court and go to the Liang country on the other side to be the proton.

And on the night when the king of Chu Zhong Yue ordered, His Royal Highness the Prince secretly ran out of the Xuandu, and since then evaporated from the world, at that time, everyone thought that this was the handiwork of Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, because the new emperor Tianqi Emperor had the first person under the god Zhang Xuanyi as a support, so it was not good to oppose the emperor's will on the surface, so he had to secretly send Zhong Yebai away to escape the fate of going to Liang as a proton, and then, there was a pretense to issue a military order to the Xuanjia Army in the world, requiring the Xuanjia Army to bring it back to Xuandu at all costs once it found the traces of His Royal Highness the Prince.

Therefore, everyone thought that Zhong Yebai could not appear again, because Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, did not want to get Zhong Yebai back at all.

Above the court, no one praised the incomparable strategy of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and this trick simply put Zhong Yue, the king of Chu who was in power, in a dilemma. Zhong Yebai appeared, then he had to be a proton, and he couldn't help himself; Zhong Yebai didn't appear, and the will of the first emperor to Zhong Yue, the king of Chu, would become a piece of waste paper, and the title of the king of Chu would end in one generation, and the Great Xuan Dynasty would no longer be a big tail, and the imperial power could be unprecedentedly concentrated.

But who would have thought that three months later, His Royal Highness Zhong Yebai would appear in Qi County, Qingzhou......

Therefore, Ba Zehu and Qingluan only said that Gao Jian was happy that the stunned Qing who didn't know the inside story had discovered the traces of His Royal Highness the Prince, so they brought His Royal Highness the Prince here in accordance with the general's military order.

Ba Zehu glanced at the two brothers Shen Qian and Gao Jianxing, who were tied to death by hemp rope on the platform, turned to stop their mouths with one hand, and whispered to Zhong Yebai, "Your Royal Highness, it's okay if you don't go back, I will kill them all in a while, and no one will know that you have appeared here!"

As soon as Qingluan heard Ba Zehu say so, he immediately echoed, "Your Royal Highness the Prince of the World, rest assured, I know Ba Zehu's methods, and I will never leave a trace of it, His Royal Highness the Prince will hide from now on, and no one will be able to find any trace of His Royal Highness the Prince, and I and Ba Zehu will definitely accompany His Royal Highness the Prince, but I will not let His Royal Highness the Prince suffer the slightest injury!"

When Zhong Yebai heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh, the two generals in the dragon, the tiger and the three phoenixes were simply not too good to themselves, and they were willing to let go of the wealth and power of the sky, just for themselves not to be the proton like a caged bird, which was really loyal.

But how could Zhong Yebai tell these two his true meaning, Zhong Yebai couldn't say that he was going to the Chu Palace's mansion to uncover the secret that the monk Kongwei said, right? But as a normal person, he would never be willing to be a proton, so Zhong Yebai had to find a reasonable reason to make it reasonable for him to voluntarily go back and be a cage-like proton.

Zhong Yebai moved his legs slightly, moved his muscles and bones, Ba Zehu immediately understood what His Royal Highness the Prince meant, this half of his body buried in the ground is indeed not a good time to talk about things, but Ba Zehu also looked at Qingluan with cautious eyes, this guy is getting more and more bold, even His Royal Highness the Prince dares to bury it half underground.

Qingluan took back the vitality silk he had laid on the ground, Zhong Yebai immediately climbed out of the ground easily, patted the dust on his body, and said to Qingluan and Ba Zehu, "It's not that simple for me to do protons. If I escape and hide in the rivers and lakes, who do you guess is the happiest?"

Qingluan and Ba Zehu glanced at each other, and looked at Zhong Yebai together, "Shouldn't it be you, His Royal Highness?"

Zhong Yebai shook his head, sighed and said, "I have been out of the Chu Wangfu for three months, and I have figured out one thing, the matter of protons, whoever does the same, isn't it that the Great Liang Dynasty sent a family son to my Daxuan, and my Great Xuan Dynasty sent a family son to their Daliang? It's just that this matter fell on my head, and the people in the Chu Wangfu were not happy, but looking back, if I secretly ran away and hid in the rivers and lakes, my Great Xuan Dynasty would never be able to find a person who could be used as a proton to go to the Great Liang Dynasty?"

Zhong Yebai paused, licked his lips, and continued, "What is this proton? It is a reason for the two countries to strike troops and truce war! The Warring States period has been chaotic for ten years, and the people have no means of living, so they finally have a chance to recuperate, if I just escape like this, if the two countries suddenly go to war again, who will the common people hate the most? It will not be the Daliang court, it will not be the Daxuan court, it will only be my Chu Wangfu! In the end, the charge of sabotaging the peace talks will still fall on the head of the Chu Wangfu and on my head, and the people of the world will come to poke my backbone and mingle in the market and rivers and lakes that scold me every day, what is the meaning?"

"Besides, this infamy is all false, but the title of the King of Chu is real! If I disappear into the rivers and lakes because of this proton, wouldn't that be tantamount to obediently returning the title of the King of Chu to the Emperor of the Apocalypse?

"Sister Qingluan, General Ba, do you think that my Royal Highness the Prince of the World can not be a proton who goes to the Great Liang Dynasty?" Zhong Yebai smiled and asked Ba Zehu and Qingluan.
