Chapter 297: Between Talking and Laughing

Haoxing Mingrui glanced at Han Bing's face that was about to cramp with a smile, but for a while, he couldn't do anything about this extremely unkind naughty boy.

In fact, this incident is indeed out of Shui Xinying's love for her sweetheart.

Now the situation is becoming more and more tense, especially since the emperor and Zheng Yong have pointed the finger at Haoxing Mingrui, the fake prince, and sent many masters of the inner world to his side, obviously to protect, but in fact to monitor.

And Shui Xinying is going to the north to investigate the attack on the rudder of the Loyal and Righteous League, and he really can't rest assured that this big brother Mingrui is not as skilled as himself. However, she had no choice but to select twenty female disciples with the best kung fu from the Xiuyun Sword Sect and stay behind to protect Haoxing Mingrui in secret.

Thinking of being a dignified man, but being protected by a group of women, Haoxing Mingrui felt quite embarrassed, but with his cleverness and transparency, he naturally would not brush Shui Xinying's good intentions in person.

It's just that these female guards of the Xiuyun faction should not appear in Prince Ding's mansion or even in Jingyang City, so as not to arouse the suspicion of those who have a heart.

So, Haoxing Mingrui let them all stay in the eastern suburbs of Jingyang, and they could communicate with each other through the tea shop by Tianmu Lake on weekdays.

This time, he suddenly received an order from the emperor to come to the imperial tomb to guard filial piety. With his wisdom and calculation, he saw the emperor's intentions clearly.

So before leaving, he made a plan to escape overnight on the day he arrived at the imperial tomb, and made corresponding preparations-

The first is to secretly let Fan Cheng, the chief butler of the palace, who had just defected to join his own camp before the battle, but who had already followed his own inner secret agent, poisoned the water bladder of those inner masters.

The second is to inform those female guards of the Xiuyun Sword Sect that they are ambushed at the foot of the north of Cuiwei Mountain early in the morning, just in time to monitor the official road leading to the imperial tomb in the capital. If there is any emergency, he can send a message to him in time through the hidden secret agent who has been planted in the imperial tomb for a long time.

But that's often the case, always the plan doesn't change quickly.

What Ling Haoxing Mingrui didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived at the imperial tomb, the emperor had bad intentions and couldn't wait to send him to Gyeongju. Nominally, he went to move the rescuers, but in fact, he was pushed to his death.

And the most ridiculous point is that he bullied him, Bai Ding Li Jin has no knowledge, and the dignified Emperor His Majesty actually used a fake military talisman to deceive him.

However, in this way, the emperor's true intention to harm him was exposed.

Naturally, Haoxing Mingrui would not follow those Ouchi guards to Gyeongju north.

Therefore, in the name of the emperor's strict order not to expose Xingzang, he coaxed those masters to follow him to the west first.

When the group reached the foot of Cuiwei Mountain, they saw a three-way intersection in front of them, and there was a road to turn north.

Haoxing Mingrui took the opportunity to slow down his horse's speed, and when the Ouchi master who was following him was distracted, he suddenly drew the sword beside him and rushed towards them.

Those Ouchi masters were caught off guard, and even if they were killed by him. The rest of the people were not slow to react, and they drew their blades and attacked him.

At this time, the female guards of the Xiuyun Sect, who had already been ambushed in the dense forest next to them, also rushed out in time.

This time, Haoxing Mingrui can be regarded as truly witnessing, and the prestige of the world's No. 1 Sword Sect is indeed worthy of it!

Among the twenty heroines of the Xiuyun Sword Sect, none of them were inferior to those masters in terms of kung fu.

I saw the long swords in their hands flying, reflecting the afterglow of the sunset on the horizon, and turning into brilliant red glows, making the bodies of those masters bloom with poignant blood flowers!

By the time Haoxing Mingrui woke up from his surprise and admiration, none of the dozen or so poor Ouchi masters had been spared, and they had all become the souls of these Xiuyun Sect heroines.

Although it is not an ulterior secret that Shui Xinying sent people to protect herself, Haoxing Mingrui still wants to maintain her tall image of being wise and martial in front of her nephew, so she has always refused to tell Han Bing the truth.

But now, it is very unfortunate that the truth has been discovered by this clever boy. Seeing Han Bing's unhappy appearance, Haoxing Mingrui was embarrassed, so he had to temporarily move out of the majesty of his elders, coughed lightly again, and took the opportunity to turn the conversation to the main topic.

"This time, Xing Chengbiao can be said to have come out of the nest. Of the 100,000 Western Route Army, 20,000 surrounded Jingyang City, while the remaining 80,000 people wrapped the imperial tomb where the Holy Driver was located.

The Gyeongju army led by the seventh uncle only had 30,000 horses, which was already at a great disadvantage in terms of numbers. What's more, the combat strength of these Xiang troops is weak, and it is not enough to compete with the well-trained 100,000 Western Route Army. ”

And so it is. At the beginning, the master went to Gyeongju to persuade King Qing to transfer the Qingzhou army to Beijing, just to help Song Hou clean up the Yan soldiers in the capital and further control the situation in Beijing. ”

Speaking of this, Han Bing turned his gaze to the corner company camp at the bottom of the mountain, and couldn't help but sigh slightly, "Who would have thought that what we would face now is actually a strong army of 100,000 soldiers on the West Road. The difference in strength between us and the enemy is too great, and there is really no chance of victory!"

Haoxing Mingrui pondered to himself for a long time, and said: "If you go head-to-head, you really have no chance of winning. But if it was a secret raid, it would catch Xing Chengbiao off guard.

If Zhu Mo's 5,000 guards join forces inside and outside, it is not difficult to tear a hole in the enemy's encirclement and save His Majesty the Emperor from the predicament. It's just, thenβ€”"

As a result, Dayu may be plunged into a protracted civil war. ”

Han Bing calmly took over the conversation, "That emperor will not be willing to give up the throne just now, and will definitely gather the Northern Territory Army and the Nanling Army that are still loyal to him, as well as the various Xiang armies to serve the king together."

And His Royal Highness King Ji can't stop there, it must be after his 'father emperor' becomes the 'first emperor', so that he, the usurper, can sit on the dragon chair with peace of mind.

At that time, the war in Dayu will continue, and all the military strength will be consumed in this large-scale infighting, and Beirong, who has been eyeing the tiger, will definitely take the opportunity to invade the south and seize Dayu. ”

Haoxing Mingrui nodded silently when he heard this.

"Uncle, whether it is the Western Route Army or the Eastern Navy, although they are all rebels now, when foreign enemies invade, they are still elite soldiers who defend their homes and country.

We must not allow these wealthy men to shed every drop of their blood for such a meaningless infighting. This time, we should only punish the evil, and never cause any trouble!"

Although he knew that what Han Bing said was very reasonable, Haoxing Mingrui remained silent and did not express his position.

"Uncleβ€”"

Han Bing's sword eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his handsome face was full of determination, "In such a situation, you must make a decision immediately!" 'If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger', only by killing the first evil with lightning can this crisis be nipped in the bud!"

Haoxing Mingrui looked at Han Bing's increasingly resolute face with blazing eyes, and finally asked in a deep voice, "How sure are you?"

If this was asked by Song Qingfeng, Han Bing would inevitably use that joke to perfunctory him - "If you win, it will be ten, and if you lose, you will not have half a point." ”

But at this moment, facing his uncle with a solemn expression, Han Bing also put away his playfulness and replied honestly: "Five points." ”

"Oh?"

Haoxing Mingrui couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise, thinking, when did this kid become so humble?

Who knew that just when he was about to consider correcting this inherent prejudice against his nephew, the kid Han Bing suddenly grinned, blinked his eyes and said, "Five points of certainty, I can take off Xing Chengbiao's head." And the other five points depend on whether Song Qingfeng can cut off the dog head of the Marquis of Dongping in one fell swoop!"

When Haoxing Mingrui heard this, he couldn't help laughing, patted Han Bing's shoulder vigorously, and said, "Okay, then I'll wait to see how you and Qingfeng take off the heads of those two traitors!"

I'm afraid no one could have imagined that in the face of such a critical situation, their nephews and uncles decided on an extremely dangerous assassination operation that could never be returned at any time.
