Chapter 147 Chu Wenzheng's True Face
"When will your princess come back?" Chu Tianyou looked at Zhan Chi with a gloomy expression.
What he said was true. They were united in this matter concerning Prince An. However, thinking of what was said in the letter, he could not wait even a moment. He had many guards, including the Yunzhou Guards... What could Prince An do to him?
Zhan Chi said calmly, "I have already sent a message to the princess."
Chu Tianyou hesitated for a moment, then said coldly, "You can leave first, I will be back soon."
Zhan Chi frowned and said, "Your Highness, please ask the attendants to leave. The princess has something to tell your Highness."
Chu Tianyou waved his hand impatiently, "What else does your princess want?"
Zhan Chi whispered to him about the betrayal of Yunzhou Wei and some of Chu Wenzhen's plots. This was also Bai Chuxiao's intention. If Chu Tianyou insisted on doing something, he would tell him the truth. If he told him at the beginning, Chu Tianyou would probably lose his temper.
Chu Tianyou stood up suddenly and said sternly, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Zhan Chi said in a deep voice, "If they find out that we already know about this, we will be in danger. Your Highness, please pretend that you don't know about this for the time being and continue to stay in the office to deal with Lord Jiang. After the princess has subdued the rebels, we can make plans."
Chu Tianyou paced back and forth, regretting not listening to Bai Chuxiao. If he had known earlier, he should have transferred the Changzhou garrison before entering Yunzhou...
As the commander of Yunzhou Guard, Wei Changkong was naturally much better than Li Rui in deploying troops. The rebels defected and hijacked Li Rui's food supplies. The tens of thousands of people who followed Li Rui were terrified and lost their will to fight before the battle. They didn't have much loyalty to Li Rui in the first place.
Wei Changkong led his men with great momentum, and in just two days they surrounded the so-called mighty general's mansion. However, he had changed his appearance under Bai Chuxiao's skillful hands, and Wei Changkong's identity could not be exposed for the time being.
Outside the mighty general's mansion, Bai Chuxiao, dressed in red, rode a horse and stood in front of the army with Wei Changkong.
Soon Xia Fan and a few men in black tied up Li Rui. If they had come a little later, Li Rui would have escaped. Li Rui's kung fu was really good, and they had to work hard to catch him...
"Princess, you have good means," Wei Changkong said with a smile
Bai Chuxiao smiled faintly, "The general deserves credit for this battle."
Xia Fan bowed and asked, "Princess, how do you deal with Li Rui?"
Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows, "Take it away, I want to have a good talk with the general."
As soon as the thing blocking Li Rui's mouth was removed, he started to curse, "I am a mighty general, you are a bunch of fence-sitters, why don't you let me go quickly?" He still thought that the group of people besieging him were rebels.
Bai Chuxiao said calmly, "You're addicted to calling yourself a general."
Li Rui laughed a few times, "Is there no one in the court? They actually sent a bitch like you."
Xia Fan slapped her hard and said coldly, "This is the Princess of Yan, please speak respectfully."
Li Rui turned his head and said, "Pah, what kind of shit princess have I not heard of?"
Bai Chuxiao didn't care. She looked down at him and smiled faintly, "It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. Tell me who is behind you and giving you advice. I might be happy to spare your life."
Li Rui laughed wildly again. "What do you mean by giving advice? I don't understand your grandfather. Just come and kill me if you want to."
Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Very good, I hope you will always be so courageous. Take him away and entertain our mighty general."
If she really had a backbone, she might still look up to him and let him live, but it was obvious that Li Rui was not a person with a backbone.
The original plaque of the mighty general had been taken down. The group entered the main hall. Xia Fan whispered, "Princess, Commander Zhan sent a message saying that the prince has been a little restless since he received a letter. Chu Wenzhen should take some action."
Wei Changkong frowned and said, "Princess, isn't it very dangerous for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be in Yunzhou City? Why not send the Crown Prince away secretly?"
Bai Chuxiao said calmly, "The guards of Yunzhou City are all Chu Wenzheng's personal soldiers. How can we send them away? If the prince moves, even we will be surrounded by Chu Wenzheng's personal soldiers."
Wei Changkong said in a deep voice, "Princess, what should we do next?"
Bai Chuxiao spoke slowly, "Are you sure you can kill Sun Xiang and Wei Changkong in a surprise attack tonight? Are you sure you can take care of Yunzhou Guards?"
Wei Changkong said in a deep voice, "Once Sun Xiang dies, I will have a 60% chance of success."
Bai Chuxiao nodded and said in a deep voice, "In that case, we should act immediately tonight. If we can subdue the troops, we will have the strength to fight against Chu Wenzheng's soldiers. The prince doesn't have Zhan Chi to protect him. As long as we hold out until we subdue the army, there will still be a chance for things to turn around."
In the Yunzhou Provincial Administration Office, Chu Tianyou had dinner with Jiang Ming as usual, but he became a little uneasy after knowing the true situation in Yunzhou.
"My dear nephew, the emperor's uncle is here to see you..." Suddenly, Chu Wen's loud laughter came from outside.
Chu Tianyou was stunned, and Zhan Chi stood behind him silently.
"Uncle, why are you here suddenly?" Chu Tianyou said calmly.
Chu Wen Zheng smiled and said, "The emperor's uncle has been waiting for his nephew in the mansion for a long time, but he didn't come. Since his nephew is unwilling to come, the emperor's uncle has no choice but to come in person."
Chu Tianyou said in a deep voice, "What does the emperor's uncle want to see me for?"
Chu Wenzheng smiled and said, "I want my nephew to accompany me to a place."
Chu Tianyou frowned, "Uncle, you are joking. Where can we go at this late hour? Let's talk about it tomorrow."
Chu Wen Zheng smiled and said, "What if the king must do it now?"
Chu Tianyou said coldly, "Chu Wenzheng"
Chu Wenzheng laughed wildly and said, "Catch him for me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Jiang Ming had stood behind Chu Wenzheng without knowing when.
Chu Tianyou's face turned pale. Now there were only a thousand guards outside the door, but they could not stop him for a few moments.
Zhan Chi held the sword and whispered, "Your Highness, follow me closely."
The middle-aged man who had been standing behind Chu Tianyou suddenly whispered, "Guard Zhan, go and attack Chu Wenzheng. I will take the opportunity to take His Highness away."
Zhan Chi glanced at the prince. The idea was good, but he was not sure about the middle-aged man's skills. He did not dare to put the prince's life in his hands easily.
Chu Tianyou did not hesitate and nodded at him. After all, Zhan Chi was Bai Chuxiao's man. This middle-aged man was his confidant and had good kung fu, so he was naturally more trustworthy.
The prince was relieved, Zhan Chi no longer had any scruples and rushed towards Chu Wen Zheng with a sword in hand. If he could capture Chu Wen Zheng, things would be much easier.
Zhan Chi's Kung Fu was not inferior to Chu Tianze's. Everyone was slightly surprised by his move. Chu Wenzheng quickly stepped back, and several men in black immediately blocked in front of him.
However, Zhan Chi didn't take these people seriously. After fighting for a while, they were swept to the ground by Zhan Chi. Zhan Chi remained calm and continued to move towards Chu Wen Zheng.
