Chapter 125 Rebellion (2)
Chapter 125 Rebellion (2)
Dai Wen looked away and said, "Sorry!" Then he raised his hand to signal the soldiers behind him, and they rushed forward. Suddenly, hundreds of soldiers rushed into the temple!
He received an order from King Shixing that he must kill Xie Zhen of the Xie family of Chenjun, and if possible, kill the crown prince or even His Majesty!
I don’t know what happened, but King Shixing seemed to have gone mad with anger!
But he is not crazy yet. It is impossible for him to kill His Majesty, but if he wants to kill Xie Zhen, it is not a difficult task!
Dai Wen led his troops to surround all the exits of Miaofa Temple. He watched Lanling King's carriage go away and couldn't help laughing in his heart: This person from the Gao family of Northern Qi is really licentious. Even in such a situation, he still did not forget to make love with Meiji in the carriage.
But this thought only lingered in his mind for the time of an incense stick. After all the soldiers had searched the temple, they did not find the prince, nor did they find the whereabouts of Xie Zhen of the Xie family of Chen County. Dai Wen realized belatedly that he had been fooled, so he led his troops to the embassy where Lanling King was!
After Prince Lanling arrived at the embassy, he immediately carried Xiao Jinyu into the room.
"Didn't you say that everything is ready and there should be no surprises?"
After placing Xiao Jinyu on the couch, he leaned over and put his lips to her ear and asked.
"I didn't expect that at the critical moment, Emperor Chen Xu would actually fall ill. I also didn't expect that King Shixing would be so impatient and rebel without hesitation!"
If Chen Xu had arrested King Shixing on the spot after saying that, none of these things would have happened!
This was a perfect plan!
The bad thing is that Chen Xu fell ill at the critical moment. It seems that he was angry with his son Chen Shuling and became ill!
Prince Lanling wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.
"Aren't you quite powerful? You almost made the emperor of your Southern Dynasty kneel down!"
"Really? He's pretty amazing, he didn't kneel in the end!"
Lanling Wang laughed, looking at Xiao Jinyu's eyes which were as black and white as ink jade, and his heart couldn't help but move.
It seemed that he just realized that he was still leaning over and looking at her in an extremely ambiguous posture. At such a close distance, he could even smell the faint sweet fragrance emanating from her body.
Gao Changgong's ears felt slightly hot, and he stood up quickly and said, "I guess Dai Wen will come back to find us. Change your clothes, and you will have a show with me later!"
"okay!"
Xiao Jinyu also agreed with his guess.
She was not someone who knew how to dress herself up. In her previous life, she had a maid to do her makeup for her. And her original body, Xiao Jinyu, did not pay attention to her appearance at the request of her mother, Xiao Luan.
This time, she made an exception and put plum blossom makeup on her forehead, and then changed into the clothes that Lanling King had given her before.
Not long after, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside the embassy, and it sounded like at least a hundred riders were galloping towards this side.
Dai Wen must have realized where Xie Zhen from the Chenjun Xie family is.
"I seem to have heard the prince mention it before. Xie Zhen is an aide to Lanling King. He must be in Lanling King's embassy right now. I actually... forgot such an important thing!"
As Dai Wen was speaking, he saw the embassy in front of him, so he reined in his horse, and the nearly 100 cavalrymen behind him also stopped suddenly.
Hearing the noise, Lu Yu ran out of the embassy. Seeing Dai Wen, he shouted unhappily, "General Dai, what does this mean? Your prince is going to rebel, so why are you running here? Do you want to vent your anger on my prince?"
"As long as Prince Lanling hands over Xie Zhen, I will not make things difficult for him!"
"Xie Zhen is not in the embassy!" At this time, Lanling Wang came out and said.
"Prince, he is your man, you should know where he is now?"
"I don't know. He went to Miaofa Temple today and never came back. I want to ask, what did Xie Zhen do wrong to trouble General Dai to mobilize so many people to arrest him?"
What had he done wrong? To be honest, even he himself didn't know what this young man Xie had done wrong. Didn't he become famous at the Qingtan Yaji some time ago? He was praised as a famous scholar of the younger generation in Jiangzuo, with a straightforward and brilliant mind and unparalleled eloquence!
But he had to obey the order given by King Shixing!
"In that case, General Dai, please go to the embassy and search it. But my beloved concubine is in the embassy, please don't scare her!"
Dai Wen clasped his fists and bowed, then ordered the cavalrymen to dismount and rush into the embassy one after another. As soon as they arrived at the hall, they saw a graceful girl in black standing in the hall. When they first saw her back, they noticed that her black hair was slightly fluttering like water waves. The temperament emanating from this woman was as charming and unattainable as a fox spirit on a snowy mountain.
Just a back view can make people feel extraordinary beauty!
At this moment, the woman turned around slowly, looking at Lanling Prince who was walking towards her with bright eyes, and said softly: "Prince, who are they? How could they be so rude to break into the embassy? They are so fierce, they scared me!"
Although he had seen her incomparable beauty, Gao Changgong couldn't help but feel his chest tighten at this moment, and a strong sense of shock and impact came over him!
I didn't expect that she had such a gentle and charming side, even though it was just a disguise!
But it was enough to make the soldiers who broke in stunned, as if their souls had flown away, and the soldiers were staring blankly and unable to move.
"What's going on? What are you doing here? Search quickly!"
Dai Wen ran in and saw the woman nestled in Lanling King's arms, looking at him with an innocent face like a frightened deer. He seemed to be nailed to the spot and could not utter a word.
"General Dai, are you going to search or not? If you do, do it quickly. If you don't, please take your soldiers and leave quickly. Don't disturb the peace of this embassy!"
It was unknown how much time had passed, but Dai Wen was suddenly awakened by Lanling King's shout.
"Sorry!" He saluted again and ordered the soldiers who had regained consciousness to conduct a rough search of the embassy. They discovered that apart from Lanling Wang's guards and the girl, there was no trace of "Xie Zhen".
Is it true that he never came back?
That’s right. If Xie Zhen knew that they were hunting him, why would he return to the embassy?
He was the one who was confused!
"Your Highness Prince Lanling, I'm so sorry to bother you!" Dai Wen apologized again, and couldn't help but look at Xiao Jinyu one more time, then he rushed away again with a group of soldiers.
After the cavalrymen walked away, Prince Lanling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Looking at Xiao Jinyu, who was calm and composed and even more stunning than before, thinking of her graceful and charming look just now, his heart felt soft and sweet, and he couldn't help but hold her in his arms with heartache.
"This is too risky, Xiao Jinyu, have you ever considered your own safety before doing anything?"
"I'm not... fine. Am I okay?"
"But I will feel sad. When I think that your life is in danger, I will feel sad..."
Xiao Jinyu was a little stunned. Perhaps it had been a long time since she felt any other kind of care other than family love.
This touched her and caught her off guard, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment!
Lu Yu just happened to run in from outside. Seeing his prince and the young lady hugging each other tightly, he said nothing and tactfully hid aside.
"What will you do next? Can you tell me first?"
As if he suddenly thought of something, Gao Changgong let go of Xiao Jinyu and asked again.
Xiao Jinyu thought of that dream, the original owner's memory in the previous life: Chen Shuling was serving Chen Xu when he was seriously ill, together with Crown Prince Chen Shubao and Changsha King Chen Shujian. He sharpened a medicine knife and wanted to kill Crown Prince Chen Shubao, intending to seize the throne after Chen Xu's death, but his left and right eunuchs did not understand his intention and gave him a wooden sword, so Chen Shuling failed to kill Chen Shubao. Afterwards, Queen Liu Jingyan fought to protect her son.
Changsha King Chen Shujian did arrest Chen Shuling, but because he had no power to sentence him to death, Chen Shuling managed to escape.
Finally, Chen Shuling simply raised the banner of rebellion, and summoned kings and generals on a large scale, rebelling openly!
Naturally, given his character, not many people would respond, but Chen Bogu was one of them, and Dai Wen was also his trusted general.
Although Chen Xu is not about to die yet, his physical discomfort has already shown signs. Chen Shuling must think that his father will not live long, and his determination to rebel will become even more determined!
He would definitely gather troops and attack Taicheng before Chen Xu issued an order to convict him!
Therefore, the biggest problem now is to prevent him from recruiting troops, or to strangle him before he attacks Taicheng, leaving him powerless to resist!
"To lure the enemy into sowing discord!" Xiao Jinyu replied, "If he wants soldiers, I will lend them to him!"
