Chapter 91: Blood

In the western suburbs of Luoyuan, the moonlight is hazy, and the cold fog after the rain casts a veil on this wild countryside, which makes it more and more eerie.

On the watchtower, Chu Zikai and Ling Feng stood side by side, looking at the direction where Wen Jiang's army was stationed, waiting for the opportunity to prepare to send troops.

Two hours have passed, and there is no one in sight, and I suddenly heard Chu Zikai say: "After this battle, this king has to take care of himself again, and he needs to postpone his return to Beijing, and I also ask Ling Shilang to be dedicated to escorting his father back to the palace." ”

Listening to Chu Zikai's entrustment, Ling Feng immediately surrendered his hand: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince instructed that the ministers should do their duty." ”

When night fell, the lights of Luoyuan City behind him went out, and everything fell silent. In the vast wilderness ahead, the wind blew away the mist and could clearly see far away.

In the darkness of the night, a flash of fire suddenly appeared in the distance, which was very clear from the top of the watchtower. Chu Zikai stroked the sword on his waist with one hand, and immediately ordered: "Wen Jiang has approached, ready to meet the whole army." ”

Ling Feng responded and went down, Chu Zikai turned around and watched for a while, and also got off the lookout.

Before he could get on the horse, he suddenly saw Feng Yun running out of the city gate in a hurry with a look on his face, and there was still blood on his body.

Seeing this, Chu Zikai panicked, and hurriedly called over and asked, "What is the injury on your body?" What is the situation in the palace? ”

Because he was running too fast, Feng Yun was out of breath, intermittent, and said in an eager tone: "Slave...... The minions couldn't get in, and when they found out that something was wrong, Concubine Chen and the princess ordered the commander of the guards to be captured, and the reason was ......"

"What is it? Say it! ”

Chu Zikai was anxious in his heart and hurriedly asked. I really don't understand why Yu Zhao didn't act according to the plan, and I don't know why Yu Cheng, who was supposed to be the last cook, suddenly appeared in Luoyuan, Chu Zikai was too puzzled, worried that something had happened in the palace.

Seeing that Feng Yun couldn't answer for a long time, Chu Zikai immediately turned his horse's head and wanted to go back to see first, but was dragged by Feng An: "Your Highness, you can't go back, Concubine Chen's mother and the Son of Heaven decree sent a decree, saying that the commander of the guard assisted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in rebellion, and the Imperial Forest Army was all dispatched by Lord Guozhang at the moment and was coming here." The slave risked death to escape and inform him. ”

These words made Chu Zikai completely stunned, and he didn't have time to think about why, when Ling Feng came to report again: "Your Highness, the rebel formation led by Wen Jiang has changed, as if you are fully aware of our formation, and all the people who fought in the front have died!" ”

When the two sides were attacked, Chu Zikai stabilized his thoughts, quickly thought about it in his mind, and finally decided to believe Yu Zhao, thinking that she must have temporarily changed her plan in order to contain Yu Cheng. You have to take Wen Jiang down first, so that you can better respond. So he decisively ordered: "The whole army will follow this king to face Wen Jiang, and Ling Shilang will stay behind with a team of people to find out what the situation of the Royal Forest Army coming here is." ”

The current situation is confused, Chu Zikai does not dare to hesitate, afraid that the rebels led by Wen Jiang will come over, and he is afraid that he will be unable to resist, and it will also endanger the lives of the people in the city. I just want to solve the problem quickly and come back to solve Yu Cheng's trouble.

The autumn wind is bleak, blowing the weeds. For some reason, Chu Zikai was flustered for no reason, and he could concentrate on his mind and arrange the layout to destroy Wen Jiang.

Because the people who were exploring the way in front were gone, this battle could only be fought with their eyes closed, and after leading the troops forward for a while, Chu Zikai ordered the army behind him: "All the soldiers listen to the order, turn off the lights and sneak, and when they listen to the king's order, go all out to exterminate this traitor!" ”

The soldiers who followed were well-trained, all of them were hand-picked by the East Palace, and they were the first to look forward to Chu Zikai's horse, and at this moment, they immediately extinguished the torches that illuminated the road, and tacitly shut up.

At a glance, the whole army was like a river marching forward, it was very spectacular, the wind blew more quickly, the sound of the carriages and horses was muffled by the wind, and everyone was tense and ready to fight.

On the other side, Ling Feng took the rest of the soldiers and horses, vigilantly looking at the city gate, and saw Yu Cheng riding horses in front of him and following behind. It was actually the honor guard of the Son of Heaven, Ling Feng was puzzled, but he still knelt down according to the etiquette and waited for Emperor Yuan to arrive.

Not long after, the bright yellow sedan chair arrived, and Ling Feng and everyone bowed their heads: "Welcome to my emperor, long live Your Majesty!" ”

The veil was lifted layer by layer with the sound of congratulations, but it was Yu Zhao holding Chu Ziyi and sitting on the sedan chair.

After looking up and seeing clearly, Ling Feng was slightly startled. Before he could react, he saw Yu Zhao raise the Son of Heaven Order: "Your Majesty's will, the crown prince Chu Zikai conspired against him, raised troops to besiege the city and usurp the throne, and his accomplices will all be taken down and punished!" ”

Ling Feng stood up in surprise and asked angrily: "It's all false, why did Concubine Chen frame His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

Yu Cheng, who was standing next to him, said gloomily: "The Son of Heaven is here, Niangniang and this official act in accordance with His Majesty's will, and you are not allowed to question it!" As he spoke, he ordered the Guards on standby to take down everyone present.

Ling Feng led the people to resist, but they were outnumbered, but in a moment, they were all captured.

Seeing that the soldiers he led had casualties, Ling Feng's eyes were split, he looked at Yu Zhao, and roared angrily: "Demon Concubine! What happened to your Majesty? Vain Wenluo trusts you so much, you will be punished! ”

Chu Ziyi, who was sitting in the sedan chair, saw this scene, a little scared, but he didn't dare to cry, and hugged Yu Zhao to death. Yu Zhao soothed softly, looked at Ling Feng coldly, and snorted coldly in disdain. "Your Majesty decreed, the prince is a rebel, you are an accomplice, at this moment this palace is entrusted by His Majesty to take charge of the order of the Son of Heaven, humiliating the palace is equivalent to insulting the king! Sin plus one degree. Ling Shilang, this palace is here to advise, don't try to struggle, be obedient, maybe die a decent death. ”

Listening to Yu Zhao's words, Yu Cheng immediately ordered people to kill, but before the knife fell, he was stopped by Yu Zhao. "Father, this palace thinks that when the matter is completed and returned to Beijing, the offending person must be in hand to serve the public, and this person may stay."

Hearing this, Yu Cheng frowned and looked at her: "But Chen feels that this sinner is full of nonsense, and he is afraid that he will deceive people's hearts." ”

first covered Chu Ziyi's ears and hugged his head in his arms, Yu Zhao said softly: "These villains have their crimes exposed, they are extremely vicious, they don't want to bow to the law, they actually committed suicide by swallowing charcoal, but fortunately they were discovered by my father in time and saved their lives." ”

Suddenly understood what Yu Zhao meant, Yu Cheng thought darkly, felt that there was some truth, and glanced at his subordinates.

Immediately, someone came up and dragged Ling Feng and the others into the camp tent on the side, and curses rang out. After a while, there was another roar of pain, floating in the endless wilderness, clearly audible.

This shout was terrible, and Chu Ziyi's ears were blocked by Yu Zhao, and he couldn't avoid hearing some, so he cried in fright.

Seeing that everyone had been dealt with almost completely, Yu Cheng asked, "Niangniang, can I go to support General Wen now?" ”

Yu Zhao didn't answer, beckoned him to approach, and Yu Cheng approached at the order. Only then did Yu Zhao lower his voice and instruct: "Wouldn't it be better to let the prince help us clean up Wen Jiang's horseman, if he can't do it, Wen Jiang will definitely lose a lot of troops, and then fight against it, wouldn't it be much easier?" ”

This remark made Yu Cheng hesitate, and he pondered: "The strength of the prince should not be underestimated, and the minister thinks that it is more difficult to deal with than Wen Jiang, this move is more risky, and the minister thinks it is not advisable." ”

Holding the peace charm given by Chu Zikai on the placket, Yu Zhao deliberately showed the word to Yu Cheng, and his tone was disdainful: "To deal with him, this palace does not have to blow away." ”

This disdainful tone made Yu Cheng puzzled, looked at Yu Zhao puzzled, and only heard her whisper: "If you are not against eroticism, it is difficult to be a monarch, he doesn't understand this truth at all." ”

Yu Cheng was stunned when she heard this, and when she saw the peace charm in her hand, she suddenly realized that she didn't know what to say.

Looking at Yu Zhao's stunning and cold face, Yu Cheng sighed in his heart, worthy of his daughter, he can't see anything on weekdays, the power is in front of him, he is ruthless, and he will use all means to eradicate everything until he is completely in his hands.

This also made Yu Cheng keep an eye on it, secretly held the dagger in his sleeve, and said respectfully: "The minister obeys the order." ”
