Looking at Diexiang and Du Yingying in the carriage, Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, "What about you?" ”

Du Yingying cast an inquiring glance at Diexiang, obviously after this period of running-in, Diexiang has unconsciously become Du Yingying's backbone.

Diexiang sneered and said, "Out of Yong'an City, who else can we rely on besides relying on the prince?" ”

Xiao Chen said helplessly: "Didn't you hear? Someone is already ready to deal with me, and it's not safe to follow me. ”

The corners of Diexiang's mouth hooked up a touch: "This world is so chaotic, is it safe to leave the prince?" ”

Xiao Chen nodded, and said to himself: "That's also, even if I am unfortunate enough to encounter an accident, I think they will not embarrass you weak women." Saying that, Xiao Chen looked at Xue Wudaunt behind the carriage and said, "Since they all have to follow us, Dauntless, then you don't have to worry about me, you are responsible for protecting them." ”

Xue Wuxing nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Yes!" ”

In the carriage, Du Yingying, who had never spoken, showed a look of displeasure on her face, puffed up her chest and looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Who wants you to protect?" ”

Holding the long sword in his hand and shaking it in front of Xiao Chen, Du Yingying said firmly: "I can protect myself." ”

Looking at the heroic Du Yingying, Xiao Chen shook his head lightly and did not speak, as Du Yingying's identity as a third-grade martial artist, he could also bully and bully himself as a waste who did not know martial arts, if he really met with the elite soldiers and strong generals under several princes, I am afraid that he would show his defeat in three moves, not to mention Bai Qi and those terrifying masters under Bai Qi.

Although he thought so, Xiao Chen still didn't dampen Du Yingying's enthusiasm after all, some walls still had to be touched by himself, so that he would know better how many catties and taels he had, and besides, he also arranged for hundreds of martial arts masters to accompany him secretly, and he might not really encounter danger.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Okay, since you want to accompany you all the way, I don't insist on persuading you, but I remind you that if you really encounter danger, stay in this carriage well." ”

Ruo glanced at Du Yingying meaningfully, Xiao Chen said meaningfully: "Don't be reckless, some people and things are not something you can handle now." ”

"Good!" Sun Simiao nodded with joy on her face, she hadn't thought about danger or anything, she just could follow Xiao Chen.

Du Yingying didn't speak with a cold face, she was not a fool, she could naturally hear that the last sentence was deliberately said to herself, but her already stubborn personality would not be convinced, she just thought that Xiao Chen was scaring herself, but Diexiang on the side saw Du Yingying's thoughts, patted Du Yingying's shoulder gently, and then handed Xiao Chen a reassuring look.

Closing the curtain, Xiao Chen leaned on the carriage and looked at the green road all over the mountain with great comfort: "What a special mother's beauty!" ”

Looking at Xiao Chen, who was big-hearted, Ouyang Xu on the side reminded: "Lord Wang, don't you plan to go back to the carriage to avoid it?" ”

Although he has always had an opinion on Ouyang Xu, Wu Liang also had to admit that Ouyang Xu's words at this time made some sense, and immediately nodded and said: "Yes, Lord Wang, there is danger outside, you better go back to the carriage to avoid it!" ”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said: "If there is really danger, it is the same in the carriage or outside the carriage, outside, I can still jump into the carriage and escape at a critical time, but if I am inside, it will really become a turtle in the urn." ”

The curtain of the car was opened, and the cold hilt of the sword instantly rested on Xiao Chen's neck, and Du Yingying said coldly: "Who do you say is the turtle?" ”

Xiao Chen wants to cry without tears, damn, he really didn't mean that!

……

Zhen'an Palace.

As the second son of the former emperor Cao Shuang, Cao Chi, the king of Zhen'an, can be regarded as the rightful prince of the Wei State.

On the classical bed made of lacquered nanmu, Cao Chi held a secret letter in his hand, looking at the scattered golden light that came in through the crack in the window, and the whole person fell into a long period of sluggishness.

Originally, he thought that if he stayed away from the palace, he would be able to avoid the nightmare that seemed to go deep into the bone marrow, but he didn't expect that with the appearance of this letter, he was still dragged back to the abyss that he couldn't avoid.

"Lord Wang, are you okay?"

Outside the door, the voice of the strategist Wang Chen came.

Lifting the quilt and putting on his clothes, Cao Chi opened the door barefoot.

For a while, the afterglow of the golden light in the western sky suddenly poured into the house like a tide, it was still the scene of July, the sun hit Cao Chi, warm and comfortable!

Cao Chi closed his eyes and quietly enjoyed all this, as if only the temperature of the scorching sun could dispel the biting cold of that night.

Cao Chi didn't speak, and Wang Chen, who was outside the door, had his nose pointed to the ground, and he didn't dare to say a word.

"He went to Yong'an, but he was the prime minister of the country?" Opening his eyes, Cao Chi looked into the distance and asked.

In Cao Chi's mouth, he is naturally the emperor of Wei who fell into the hands of white chess, Cao Xun!

Raising his head, Wang Chen's eyes were dripping and looking at Cao Chi in front of him, although Cao Chi's face was as calm as water at this time, but in Wang Chen's eyes, it was like a dark cloud.

The master in front of him, it's not terrible to scold, it's terrible when you can't see what he thinks.

Ten years ago, hundreds of thousands of Qianguo troops were defeated under such a face.

Wang Chen nodded and said, "Lord Wang, Your Majesty is not in the palace, so naturally the prime minister is in charge of the government." ”

After a moment of silence, Wang Chen suddenly said meaningfully: "Your Majesty, maybe you are old!" ”

His gaze shrank slightly, and Cao Chi's eyes as sharp as knives fell on Wang Chen.

"What do you want to say?"

Wang Chen's back suddenly felt cold, as if he was being targeted by a flood beast, but when the words came to his mouth, Wang Chen still had the courage to say:

"Wang Ye, after losing the battle, Wang Ye, you are out of the limelight, even more than Bai Qi, who turned the tide at the beginning, and the Chinese military officials of the dynasty, which one does not admire you?"

"If it weren't for you being suppressed by the fief of the former emperor, I'm afraid that today's ninety-five position would not have been the turn of that person to sit!"

Cao Chi's gaze became colder, and he looked at Wang Chen and said, "Do you know that just these words are enough for you to search your family and ask for beheading?" ”

Wang Chen, who was as timid as a mouse, suddenly puffed up his chest and said confidently: "The subordinates are loyal, and the sky and the sun and the moon can be seen!" ”

"Why should I take over such a devastated mess?" Cao Chi looked at Wang Chen, he hated the Wei State, hated the cold palace that killed his mother's concubine, and also hated the father emperor who expelled him from the palace in order to help Cao Xun sit on the throne.

If it weren't for the fact that his mother's grave was still in the imperial tomb, ten years ago, the Wei State would have perished a long time ago!

"Lord Wang!" Wang Chen suddenly raised his voice, stared at Cao Chi and said: "There are always people who can't tolerate your outstanding Zhen'an King, if you don't get to that position, what awaits you is only death!" ”

Cao Chi said coldly: "He Cao Xun is now unable to protect himself, where does he still have the heart to deal with me?" ”

Wang Chen admonished bitterly: "But no matter who takes over the Wei State in the future, who can tolerate the prince?" Is it the arrogant and domineering Bai Qi, or the narrow-minded Cao Xun? Lord Wang, his subordinates would rather die, but also implore the prince to put the overall situation first. ”

Thirteen years ago, Li Dare of Xia State waved the world and destroyed six of the ten countries, laying the overall situation of the four kingdoms.

Three years later, the ambitious Qianguo took advantage of the undecided world to wave the Wei State, coinciding with the former emperor Cao Shuang was still there, Cao Shuang, who was already the emperor, in order to curb Bai Qi, whose power was gradually expanding, ordered to worship Cao Chi as the commander, and the original unknown second prince was pushed to the position of the commander of the three armies by Cao Shuang.

The world was originally skeptical of this second prince who had never been on the battlefield, but the results of the facts showed that Cao Chi's military ability was far beyond everyone's imagination, and in just half a year, he destroyed the attack of the Qianguo.

What makes the world sigh is that after the success, Cao Chi was transferred to Zhen'an in northern Xinjiang by Cao Shuang's edict.

Looking at Wang Chen's desperate persuasion, Cao Chi glared at Wang Chen fiercely, Wang Chen raised his head to meet Cao Chi's gaze, and didn't give an inch!

The scene was silent for a moment, and the air was filled with Cao Chi's thick anger.

"Wang Chen! You're too bold! Suddenly, Cao Chi shouted angrily, and his body was filled with a strong killing intent!

Death rushed towards Wang Chen like a tide, like a basin of cold water poured on Wang Chen's head, and Wang Chen suddenly fell into an ice cave.

But thinking about the precarious Wei State again, Wang Chen said with great determination:

"Prince, at this time, the Wei State is in turmoil, Cao Xun and Bai Qi are not fighting, and now Bai Qi is holding Cao Xun hostage to go to the Guizhou State, if Bai Qi really gets the help of the Guizhou Alliance, the Wei State is afraid that the dynasty will change overnight, after this matter, no matter who succeeds or loses the two, it is bound to set off a bloody storm in the court, and any of them will never allow the existence of any more forces that threaten the imperial power in the Wei State, stabilize the overall situation of the imperial court! ”

Cao Chi looked at Wang Chen in front of him deadly, without saying a word, and after a while, Cao Chi turned around coldly and returned to the room!

On the eighth day of the seventh month of the ninth hundred and ninety-eighth year of the Wei calendar, that is, on the same day that the six princes left Yong'an, Cao Chi, the king of Zhen'an, led 50,000 elite soldiers to leave Zhen'an and go to Kyoto of Wei......

……

After the Falling Soul Gorge, go forward for 12 miles, you will arrive at the border city of Yangnan City, the five princes rode their horses all the way and galloped wildly, just out of the Falling Soul Gorge, and saw a towering city standing on the road ahead.

Bai Qi rode a big horse and stood at the front of the team, and Ling Hu Chu came to Bai Qi's side on a horse, and said in a low voice:

"General, according to our marching speed, as long as we walk for two more hours, we can enter Yangnan City, according to the king's messenger return, Yangnan City Taishou has prepared a banquet, just wait for us to enter the city, to the general to pick up the wind and wash the dust!"

Bai Qi turned his head to look at Linghu Chu and chuckled, "Didn't you patrol the West King put on a big show in the Fallen Soul Gorge?" It would be a shame to miss it like that. ”

Ling Hu Chu's eyes narrowed, and he arched his hand and asked:

"What do you mean, my lord?"

Linghu Chu smiled slightly: "Pass the order, the whole army will camp on the spot, and the five princes will follow me to the top of the Falling Soul Gorge and wait for King Yong'an!" ”
