Chapter 120: Despair and Unwillingness (Part 2)
As the core of power in Pengcheng, the southeast royal palace is located in the center of the south and faces south and has a huge mansion. The streets around the royal palace are spacious and connected in all directions.
At this time, the entire royal palace had been occupied by Qingzhou soldiers, but the streets outside were filled with Xuzhou soldiers.
Yuchi Zhan is one of the five powerful generals under Sima Jiong. He is brave and warlike, and he is bold and meticulous. This is why Sima Jiong handed over this mission to him.
After successfully entering Pengcheng at night, Yuchi Zhan was full of hope and knew that it was time to make achievements. But now, he was heavy-hearted and his face was gloomy.
Five or six thousand soldiers surrounded them, and the city gates all fell into the hands of Xuzhou soldiers. Can they still break through?
Yuchi Zhan didn't know.
But he would not beg for mercy by waiting for death. He would rather die on the way to break through than beg for mercy.
Chen Ning also saw Yuchi Zhan and did not know him.
"Boy, who are you?" Yuchi Zhan noticed Chen Ning's gaze and asked coldly.
Chen Ning bowed and said, "It's down to Chen Ning!"
"Chen Ning! I remember you." Yuchi Zhan nodded.
Wang Xiao, who was standing beside him, pointed at Chen Ning and shouted: "Are you Chen Ning? You are not Zhao Baoyu?"
Chen Ning smiled and said, "Of course I am not Zhao Baoyu! Zhao Baoyu is already dead on the way to Xu! Just because the Zhao family learned about the conspiracy between your Wang family and Sima Jiong, I was tragically destroyed. I pretended to be Baoyu, just to expose your conspiracy today! Wang Xiao, you acted against the enemy, and the numerous crimes you committed finally have retribution today. Have you ever thought about having this day? It’s not that God won’t accept you, but the time has not come!"
While Chen Ning angrily scolded Wang Xiao, he did not forget to continue to fake his fake identity.
Only then did Wang Xiao realize that his plan would fail, and it actually originated from this!
"I hate it so much. If I had known today, I would have sent someone to kill you and remove you from the bottom of the sky!" Wang Xiao was angrily gushing, and he could not even wash away his anger towards Chen Ning.
At this time, Yuchi Zhan's troops had been rectified. Yuchi Zhan pulled out his knife and shouted loudly. The breakthrough began!
Chen Ning naturally couldn't let them escape? He immediately gave an order, and the soldiers of Xuzhou flocked forward behind him and began to encircle and suppress!
...
It’s dawn? In addition to the sound of fighting, there is silence in Pengcheng.
No one dares to go out? They all hide at home to avoid being implicated.
Many aristocratic families have heard the news? They are shocked and everyone is in danger.
Li's Mansion.
Li Qingkong, Li Changyun, Yu Meiqian, Yu Xuefei and others stayed together. They were not far from the Southeast Prince's Mansion, only a few streets away. The soldiers running outside the mansion kept panic.
"Two mothers, sisters? Should we escape? Once the Wang family invades the Southeast Prince's Mansion and captures the prince, we will be the next person to take action." Li Yunchang was so scared that he was speechless.
After all, Yu Meiqian is a female, so she was scared at this time. She never thought that she would have thought that Wang Xiao was so brave that he actually colluded with Sima Jiong.
"Qingkong? What do you think?" Yu Meiqian looked at her daughter.
Among the people, Li Qingkong was the most calm.
Li Qingkong sighed, "There is a melee outside. Once you go out, you may be treated as an enemy? Or stay at home honestly. Even if Wang Xiao wins, he will not kill us, because he has to use us to threaten his father!"
When everyone heard this, they nodded.
"Then will we send someone to fight the enemy? Go to support the Southeast Prince's Mansion?" Yu Meiqian has a good relationship with the Southeast Princess, and she is also worried about the princess at this time.
Li Qingkong thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Go! This is our responsibility as Xuzhou people!"
"No! If the Wang family wins and knows that we will send people to resist, wouldn't it anger them even more?" Li Yunchang stopped.
Li Qingkong stared at Li Yunchang and asked back, "What if the Southeast Prince's Mansion wins? Whoever doesn't work hard at that time will have to settle it!"
Li Yunchang was speechless.
So next, Li Qingkong immediately sent more than 20 guards to the Southeast Prince's Mansion to support him.
Another example is the Zhang family.
They also learned about the Wang family's conspiracy, and the Zhang family chose to lock the door and protect the mansion, without any intention of sending anyone to help.
At this moment, the performance of various aristocratic families was fully exposed.
...
The three thousand Qingzhou soldiers and horses led by Yuchi Zhan are all elite. After all, they are soldiers carefully trained by Sima Jiong. If they were on the battlefield, they would be absolutely brave and good at fighting, and even fight against three, but now they have suffered.
In order to move quickly and conceal, they did not carry too many bows and arrows. They were all cavalrymen, mainly long weapons. Now they have abandoned their horses and broken through the streets and are immediately passive.
In contrast, Xuzhou soldiers occupied the houses on both sides of the street and kept firing arrows. Zheng Bo transferred all the archers from the camp outside the city, with sufficient arrow feathers, and constantly shot and killed the Qingzhou soldiers.
Yuchi Zhan's heart was bleeding, and he could only watch his subordinates fall down one by one, and had no way to save them.
He shot and killed the guards of the Southeast Prince's Mansion so proudly just now, and now they died here so humbly.
When the sun rose, Yuchi Zhan threw away the big knife in his hand.
She was exhausted and had one arm cut off by Zhang Liao. Looking around, only a few of his three thousand sons were left, with tragic eyes and tragic wafts everywhere.
Shen Ning walked over and looked at Yuchi Zhan who was covered in blood. He admired his courage in his heart. Then he asked someone to capture him and simply bandage him to avoid excessive blood loss and die, and then took him to meet the Southeast King.
Shen Ning walked past the street full of corpses and came to the gate of the Southeast Prince's Mansion.
Wang Xiao and his son sat there, staring blankly at the scene in front of them, feeling as if they were dead.
"Shen Ning!" Wang Beichuan's eyes swept to Shen Ning, roared and rushed over immediately.
Shen Ning kicked him away.
"Take it away and see the prince!" Shen Ning gave the order, and the soldiers behind him immediately held the two of them down and took them away.
Zheng Bo and Chu Haoran have already arrived.
Shen Ning did not dare to be entrusted and bowed to him, "I am humble to Shen Ning, I will pay homage to the two generals."
Chu Haoran had already learned everything from Zheng Bo, and he did not dare to underestimate Shen Ning. He saved the Southeast Prince's Mansion and will surely soar into the sky from now on.
"Brother Shen is out of here and serves as the prince. I will increase your age by a little. Just call me Brother Chu." Chu Haoran smiled.
"Yes, just call me Lao Zheng." Zheng Bo also said.
Shen Ning immediately bowed: "Brother Chu, Brother Zheng! I have to bother with the two brothers, ordering the soldiers to clean the scene and restrain the bodies. I have to report to the prince."
"Leave this matter to our brothers, brother Shen, don't worry." Chu Haoran patted his chest and promised.
Shen Ning nodded and went back to report his life.
The two of Wang Xiao and his son met Sima Yue. Sima Yue looked at Wang Xiao who was devastated and looked as if he was ashamed. Sima Yue coughed excitedly.
"Wang Xiao, Wang Xiao, you have harmed the king's two thousand soldiers for your conspiracy. I will definitely write to Your Majesty to convict a serious crime to kill the nine clans!" Sima Yue's tone was cold, and he was also ignorant.
Wang Xiao was trembling all over and kowtowed quickly: "Prince, please spare me, please spare me..."
At this moment, Wang Xiao was really scared!
Sima Yue waved his hand and asked someone to take the two of them away, without seeing each other.
He stayed up late at night and was in poor health. At this time, he felt relieved and his fatigue suddenly came up and said, "Haiyun, you will be watching the aftermath of the future."
Sima Haiyun hurriedly said, "Father, have a good rest. When the father wakes up, the prince's house will be cleaned up."
Sima became more and more pleased, and he was worthy of being his son!
After seeing Sima Yue off, Sima Haiyun jumped up excitedly and said happily: "Chen Ning, what you said is indeed correct! After this incident, the father looked at me with admiration! Hehe, I am the life-savior of the Southeast Prince's Mansion!"
Chen Ning replied: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is resourceful, but he was not keen on this before."
"That's right, I love hearing what you said. Thanks to you this time, you have worked hard. By the way, I don't know if my elder brother is dead." Sima Haiyun asked while touching his chin.
Chen Ning's eyes twitched.
In the initial plan, Chen Ning asked Sima Haiyun to take Sima Yue, the princess and Sima Haiying away, and Sima Haiying and other close people. Sima Haiyun was good, so he only took Sima Yue and his mother, and threw Sima Haiying, Jiang Xiao and others into the palace, regardless of their life or death.
So Chen Ning couldn't laugh or cry.
Fortunately, Sima Yue spoiled this legitimate son, otherwise he would have ruined a good design. Having said that, Sima Haiying was pitiful enough. His father Sima Yue didn't think much about him. He was indeed a illegitimate son, and he was dispensable.
"Little Prince should have a lucky person." Chen Ning replied.
Sima Haiyun cut, and his expression seemed to say, "It's better to die."
Next, the two went downstairs and personally took charge of the Southeast Prince's Mansion to handle the funeral.
The soldiers became busy, transporting the bodies, and at the same time washing the bloody streets and the palace. Gradually, the smell of blood began to fade.
At this time, Lu Xun came to report: "Your Highness, the little prince has found it!"
"What? This is not dead?" Sima Haiyun was shocked.
Chen Ning and Chu Haoran, who were beside him, looked at each other and pretended not to hear it.
Lu Xun said: "Not only did the little prince be found, but also Mr. Jiang. The little prince hid in the dung tank, and Mr. Jiang pretended to be a dead person."
After hearing this, Sima Haiyun was so happy that she slapped her thighs and laughed: "In the septic tank, my elder brother is really a magical man. I can even think of this trick. It's amazing. Let him wash it well quickly and don't let him come over, I'm afraid of smuggling myself!"
After a while, Jiang Xiao rushed over.
Jiang Xiao escaped from death, with still fear in his eyes. He bowed: "Your Highness, you and the prince are safe, so please rest assured."
Sima Haiyun smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang, you still need to be fully responsible for the aftermath!"
"This is what my subordinates should do!" Jiang Xiao smiled, then nodded to Chen Ning and the other two, and then went down to handle it.
Zheng Bo and Chu Haoran didn't sit for a long time and went out to help.
At this time, only Chen Ning and Sima Haiyun were left in the house.
Looking at Sima Haiyun's arrogant expression, Chen Ning reminded: "Your Highness, there is a saying that I don't know whether to say it or not."
"Is there anything else that cannot be said between us?" Sima Haiyun said.
Chen Ning said, "Have you forgotten the relationship between Wang Beifeng and Wang Beichuan? They are also brothers, but Wang Beifeng is jealous. This time the little prince..."
Sima Haiyun immediately narrowed his eyes.
"I should die, and I should not provoke the relationship between Your Highness and my brother." Chen Ning quickly stood up and bowed to confess his guilt.
Sima Haiyun snorted, "You are for my own good, how can I blame you? I understand what you said. This time Sima Haiying must have hated me to death. Unfortunately, he actually hid in the septic tank. I think that Jiang Xiao is not happy, so I must blame me for not reminding him. Chen Ning, please help me stare at them in the future. I don't worry if you are there."
