Chapter 148 Siege
"Zhang Yi!" Chu Tianyou suddenly shouted angrily
Zhan Chi paused, turned around and saw the so-called confidant, who was smiling and holding the sword on Chu Tianyou's neck.
Chu Tianyou gnashed his teeth and said, "Zhang Yi, I treated you well, but you actually betrayed me."
Zhang Yi remained calm and said, "I have chosen a good tree to live in."
Zhan Chi's footsteps moved slightly. He did not expect that something would go wrong with the prince's confidant.
Zhang Yi laughed again and said, "Guard Zhan, if you take another step forward, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be dead."
Zhan Chi has been guarding the prince closely these days. It is not easy for him to attack. With the strength he just showed, he is definitely no match for him.
Chu Wenzheng laughed a few times and said, "My good nephew, just follow your uncle obediently."
Chu Tianyou's face turned pale, "Zhan Chi..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the cold sword on his neck came closer, so he had to shut up again.
Zhan Chi frowned slightly, but decided to capture Chu Wenzheng
Chu Wen Zheng smiled and said, "I am surprised that Princess Changning would keep a master like you by the side of the prince, but don't you worry about the life of your princess?"
Zhan Chi remained calm. The princess's kung fu was no weaker than his. They brought elite soldiers trained by the princess, most of whom stayed with her. Besides, Wei Changkong and the other Yunzhou guards were by her side, so they were definitely able to protect themselves.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Chu Wenzheng raised his head and laughed, "Your princess took people to Hua County to attack Sun Xiang and his men. Do you think I don't know? Why don't you guess what I arranged there?"
Zhan Chi's face was grim. He did not hesitate and said in a deep voice, "Let's go." After all, the prince had nothing to do with them. Naturally, his own princess was more important.
Chu Wenzheng's target was the prince, and he didn't have time to tangle with a master. Zhan Chi quickly led his men to break out.
Late at night in Hua County, Xia Fan held Sun Xiang's head and looked at the flames outside. He said in a deep voice, "Princess, it's the soldiers from Yingzhou."
Hua County was originally located at the border with Yingzhou. Yingzhou had previously only secretly blocked the road, but now it has blatantly come to Yunzhou.
Wei Changkong gathered the old members of Yunzhou Guard who were willing to surrender and hurried over, "Princess..."
Bai Chuxiao said calmly, "How many troops are there?"
Wei Changkong said in a deep voice, "70,000"
Originally, the Yunzhou Guards had at least 100,000 soldiers. After all this turmoil, casualties were inevitable, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
The Yingzhou troops gradually approached, and Wei Changkong looked at the familiar face under the firelight, his face livid.
Bai Chuxiao spoke slowly, "Know each other?"
Wei Changkong said in a deep voice, "Yang Chang, the commander of Yingzhou Guards..."
As the troops poured in, the county town suddenly became crowded.
Wei Changkong said sternly, "Yang Chang, you are committing a serious crime by bringing troops into Yunzhou without permission."
Yang Chang, the commander of Yingzhou Guard, laughed and said, "It's strange that you, Wei Changkong, with your reckless character, can still live to this day."
Bai Chuxiao said calmly, "What does the commander want to do? Rebellion?"
Yang Chang smiled indifferently, "Princess Yan, you are joking. I just noticed some unusual movements in Yunzhou, so I came to support you."
Bai Chuxiao raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Then you saw that there is nothing unusual in Yunzhou, the commander can leave now."
Yang Chang laughed again, "Princess Yan, you and I both know the truth, why do you have to bring it up?"
Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "Does the commander want to kill me?"
Xia Fan and others immediately surrounded Bai Chuxiao, looking at the person opposite them warily. Tonight, it was a real fight.
Yang Chang smiled, "Princess, you are joking. The King of Yan still has hundreds of thousands of troops. Who dares to touch you? I just want to ask you to go."
Bai Chuxiao said calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Commander, but I don't really want to be your guest. You are so blatant, I guess Chu Wenzheng and the master behind you have already taken control of the capital?"
The letter sent by Lin Huai may not have reached Emperor Wenxuan's desk at all. However, Cheng Song should not betray Emperor Wenxuan. With him in charge of the imperial guards, she felt that there should be no problems in the palace anyway. Now it seems that something went wrong.
Yang Chang waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "This is beyond the Princess's control."
Wei Changkong said sternly, "Princess, go first."
It was impossible for Yang Chang to bring all the troops from Yingzhou in such a short time. Although their fighting power was insufficient after repeated battles, they had slightly more people than the troops from Yingzhou, so they could still fight.
Bai Chuxiao nodded and said in a deep voice, "Commander Wei, thank you for your help."
Now is not the time to be fussy. The capital is still unknown. If everything is fine in the palace, everything will be solved when she sees Emperor Wenxuan. If something happens, she will have to go back to the capital. After all, her mother is still in the palace.
The Yunzhou Guards and Yingzhou Guards fought each other. Bai Chuxiao led Xia Fan and others to quickly withdraw from the battlefield and headed towards the dark road of Mingyue Mountain. Yang Chang glanced indifferently in the direction they left and did not care.
At the foot of Mingyue Mountain, a man in a black robe and a group of people blocked Bai Chuxiao and the others.
Bai Chuxiao looked at the black-robed man at the head and felt that he was very familiar with him. "Sir, there is no need to cover yourself so tightly at night."
The black-robed man asked loudly, "Where do you want to go, Princess?"
Bai Chuxiao smiled faintly and said, "I'll tell you, will you let me go?"
The black-robed man laughed, "Can the princess escape with such a small number of people?"
Bai Chuxiao's eyes turned cold. It would be hard to leave tonight without seeing blood.
Then he didn't waste any more words and went towards the man in black robe with the shadow in hand. The two men quickly exchanged blows, and Xia Fan and others also quickly fought with their opponents.
The black-robed man's moves seemed familiar. Bai Chuxiao thought about it for a moment and said coldly, "Chu Tianling's people."
The black-robed man smiled and said, "My lord, you have good eyesight."
When he killed Bai Chuxiao outside the capital, he did not really fight with her, but this man still recognized her.
Bai Chuxiao sneered, "We are old acquaintances, why bother to hide our faces? Are Chu Tianling's lackeys so shameful?"
Anger appeared on the face of the man in black robe, "I hope you can remain calm and composed when the princess falls into my hands later."
Then he stopped playing any fair duel with her, and waved his hand, and several men in black immediately surrounded her.
Bai Chuxiao remained calm and her attacks became more and more ruthless. However, the black-robed man was very strong, and with so many people surrounding him, she found it increasingly difficult to cope with the fight, and she gradually had several wounds on her body.
The black-robed man laughed, "Princess, why bother struggling in vain?"
Bai Chuxiao's eyes were slightly cold. Without further ado, she kicked the two men over and then cut their necks with her backhand. She absolutely could not fall into Chu Tianling's hands.
The black-robed man looked grim. He was able to kill someone right under her nose. Then he started to act seriously. If he let her run away with such a good opportunity tonight, he would not be able to explain himself.
After receiving two palm strikes, a few traces of blood oozed from the corners of Bai Chuxiao's mouth. The man in black robe sneered and his moves became more fierce. He wanted to see how long she could hold on...
