While admiring the first emperor's discernment, Ma Chao also promised that he would take this opportunity to enter the Western Regions and seize the land and resources there.

"It's not enough to just seize the land and resources of Dawan Kingdom." A majestic voice suddenly came out, Ma Chao and Zhang Tian looked up and saw Zhang Chao, the First Emperor of Heaven who had come over, and immediately both of them knelt on the ground, extremely respectful.

"None of them are outsiders, get up." Zhang Chao had a faint smile on his face, this time he hurriedly sent Ma Chao back, not just for the territory of Dawan Kingdom. Although it is not small, it is still far from his ambition, this time he wants to take this opportunity to gain a foothold in the Dawan Kingdom, and then use it as the center to start an expansion journey to other countries around him and to the entire Western Regions.

If he is just aiming at Huaxia, Zhang Chao may be able to complete it soon, with his current military strength and economic strength, neither Xishu nor Eastern Wu will be his opponents, and it is only a matter of time before he takes these places.

But if he just dominates Huaxia, it is obviously not Zhang Chao's real goal, what he wants is a bigger world. If he could only think about it before, this time he has the strength to fulfill his dream.

"Ma Chao, I have ordered you to be the general of Pingxi, in charge of the specific matters of entering the Western Regions and conquering the Great Wan Kingdom. Afterwards, the Commander of the Sixth Army will cooperate with you on the expedition and provide all the necessary military supplies. I ask you, do you have faith? Zhang Chao stood tall and had an extremely determined look in his eyes.

"The minister will definitely be able to complete the task, please rest assured that the emperor." Ma Chao knelt on one knee with an extremely determined expression. With the 500,000 people of his dragoon legion, plus the full cooperation of the six legions, it is just a small Dawan country, and even compared to a state in the Celestial Empire, he is still extremely confident.

......

Just when Ma Chao knelt down to see Zhang Chao, before the mansion of Chengleli in Jinyang City, a large number of officers and soldiers also poured in.

Headed by Xu Chu, the head of the guard, thirty iron guards, two hundred brocade guards, plus five hundred Zhangjia light cavalry, and one thousand Jinyang City defense troops.

Such a formation suddenly appeared, causing the whole mansion to be full of chickens and dogs, and Prince Cheng Leli was even more frightened, he felt that this time it was the Celestial Empire that was going to play with him.

"I want to see His Majesty the Emperor of Shengming." When he saw the officers and soldiers rushing into the palace and began to arrest people everywhere, and even he was held up by two tall iron guards, he didn't know what to say except shouting this sentence.

"See Your Majesty? You deserve it too! Xu Chu looked at Cheng Leli indifferently, with a look of disdain and resentment.

is this person, who caused his brother Dian Wei to squat in the prison for a few days, although it is just for show, it is fragrant and spicy there, that is, even the most mellow hero drunk several jars, but after all, it is still a prison, and it is not good to say.

Even if he killed his brother, how could Xu Chu give him a good look now.

"No, no, I'm good friends with the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty of Shengming, and he said he wanted to trade with me, it's true." Cheng Leli is constantly explaining. After passing the incident of Dian Wei, he knew that it was these generals who led troops who were really difficult to deal with, but it was the emperor of the Celestial Empire, who seemed to be very good at talking.

Without paying attention to Cheng Leli, who kept calling, Xu Chu looked at the entire courtyard. After a while, the other Iron Guards and Jinyi Guards walked out of each room. With their appearance, some secret letters, gold and silver, and even sharp swords were found.

"Report to the Chief of the Guard, this is the correspondence we found in the room, all of which are confidential correspondence with some of our ministers..."

"Report to the chief of the guard, these are the money and gift slips we have found, all evidence of bribery by the ministers..."

"Report to the chief of the guard, we found these swords from the basement, eight hundred in all, all here..."

"Report to the Captain of the Guard......"

One by one, things were found and piled up in the courtyard, and this scene was really dumbfounded.

Where did these things come from, and why didn't he know about them? What the hell is all this going on?

Without waiting for Cheng Leli to think about it, Xu Chu, who was tall and strong on the side, snorted coldly: "I really didn't expect that you have the courage to fornicate with so many ministers of our Celestial Empire, it seems that you have a plan." And these swords, are you preparing to rebel? ”

There was a sound like a shout in the sky, which caused Cheng Leli's body to tremble, and he finally understood what was going on, this was framing, and this was accusing himself.

"No, none of this is like this, it's not." Cheng Leli wanted to explain, he wanted to say that someone was calculating him, but at this time, how could Xu Chu give him a chance to refute. As soon as his body moved, he came closer, and a big mouth twitched over.

Just as a moment, Cheng Leli felt that the sky was spinning, and his eyes were full of Venus, and the whole person fell to the ground with a thud, and completely fainted.

Without the sound of Cheng Leli's crying, the courtyard was much quieter, even because he was silent, he had already understood the domineering of the soldiers of the Celestial Empire, and it was just a humiliation to open his mouth at this time.

The things found were quickly loaded into the carriage, and in the following time, Xu Chu led everyone out of the house and walked on the street.

Walking all the way, there are special personnel who are telling Cheng Leli's crimes. Judging from these announced matters, it is clear that this is an exotic ambitious prince who is plotting with the courtiers of the Celestial Empire to kill the First Emperor of the Heavens.

The procession walked slowly on the street, and more and more people gathered around to hear the news. Among them, there were also some envoys and merchants from various countries in the Western Regions.

The iron guard who was responsible for telling the crime had a loud voice like thunder, so that many people could hear it very clearly from a long distance. When they heard that Cheng Leli had done so many things, and when they saw the sword and secret letter on the carriage, they all scolded this thief in their hearts.

There were even many people of the Celestial Empire, who were walking with the carriage and scolding loudly. Zhang Chao has a god-like existence in the minds of many of them, so without this person, they would not have such a good life now, but now that someone wants to harm their emperor, it is not to blame the people for being angry.

Because too many people watched and followed, the speed of the carriage was very slow, and it walked for nearly an hour, before coming to the palace, Xu Chu was not in a hurry about all this, let alone urging, but his sharp eyes would look at Cheng Leli who was on top of the healthy horse from time to time.

The bumps on horseback, coupled with countless noisy sounds, the stunned Cheng Leli Jing began to wake up, but he didn't open his eyes for the first time, but his slightly moving eyelashes had already exposed everything.

At this time, Cheng Leli didn't know that he was framed, so he was really stupid. When he thought of what he heard on the street about what others thought of his name, he knew that this time he was being used by the emperor of the Celestial Empire.

originally thought that the emperor of the Celestial Empire was so good to him, and even tolerated everywhere, and he didn't even investigate the fact that he bullied other people's daughters, but on the contrary, he blamed a general with great achievements for himself, all because the Celestial Empire wanted to be friendly with Dawan.

But now, this is clearly not the case, this is a trap designed by others, in order to lure yourself into the urn, cause public indignation, and then catch yourself in a net.

Now that he knows this, Cheng Leli naturally doesn't have how to explain it, he promises that if he opens his mouth now, there will definitely be a slap in the face, and it will be a waste of such a good opportunity to wake up and others did not find out.

If you don't move, you must be sure to escape.

Gently opened his eyes, what he saw was the scene of walking on the lively street, Cheng Leli calculated in his heart, whether he could take advantage of the chaos and escape, only by escaping and escaping back to Dawan Kingdom, under the protection of his father, he had the opportunity to explain these things, and only then did someone be willing to listen to his explanation.

As his gaze moved, his arm inadvertently touched the handle of a knife with an icy intent. This is a sharp knife, and after knowing what his hand is touching, Cheng Leli is also excited.

With a sharp blade, there is still a chance to escape if you suddenly move yourself. As long as he enters the street, with the obstruction of those people who are watching the excitement, it will be difficult for the soldiers of the Celestial Empire to catch him, and at that time, he will have a chance to escape from Jinyang City.

After briefly considering the escape route in his heart, Cheng Leli suddenly moved.

It looked like he had suddenly slipped off a healthy horse, but in fact, he took advantage of the situation, and the moment he landed at the same time, the sharp knife in his hand had already been waved, and it really hurt the Celestial Empire soldiers who were nearby and wanted to see the situation.

"It's not good, Cheng Leli wants to escape, and he also killed the officers and soldiers." Just when Cheng Leli's body moved, and his footsteps were about to leave the place, this shout sounded in his ears, which also made his whole person fixed there, how could he be discovered so quickly, there seems to be only one explanation, that is, all his actions have long been under surveillance, and even when he wakes up, including the fact that he can touch a sharp knife, it is clearly arranged by others.

This arrangement is to force himself to escape, but the hateful thing is that he thought that the opportunity had come, but he really fell into the trap.

At this moment, Cheng Leli didn't want to run away, he wanted to put down the knife in his hand, and then explained that everything he did was used by others. But it is destined that there will be no such opportunity, because just after a shout, Xu Chu, who was riding a horse, passed by, and before the person arrived, the long-handled broadsword in his hand had already brought a strong wind and rushed straight to him.
