Chapter 472 The Prince Who Was Instigated
"Prince Chen and General Wu are fighting in the front yard."
"Brother is back too?" Chen Baoyi, who was kowtowing, suddenly stopped.
There was a glimmer of ruthlessness in Liu Ailian's crazy eyes.
Shen Zhao quickly turned around and left the underground secret room, and ordered:
"Take them both with you."
The group quickly rushed to the front yard.
The Chen family servants, guards and stewards who had been controlled just now were now all standing behind a man in tight clothes holding a red tasseled spear.
Behind these people was a group of soldiers.
He was staring at Wu Yunfeng and the soldiers of the Lulin Army and the Jingzhong Camp behind him with a fierce look.
"Chen Chaoyang, do you know what you are doing? Are you trying to rebel?"
Wu Yunfeng shouted loudly, his eyes showing a complicated look.
Although he and Chen Chaoyang were at the border and Linhai respectively, they were close friends.
He understood Chen Chaoyang's character and knew that he was definitely not a traitor with ulterior motives.
"I would like to ask you, Wu Yunfeng, what exactly did my Chen family do wrong that allowed you to lead the soldiers to surround my Chen family and control everyone in my house, including my grandmother and others."
Chen Chaoyang was about to explode with anger, especially when he heard his grandmother and second uncle whisper in his ear:
"Chaoyang, if you don't come back, you won't be able to see your grandmother and second uncle again. These people rushed into our mansion without knowing right or wrong."
"Without a word, they arrested everyone in the mansion and carried out extensive searches and vandalism in the mansion."
"Your grandmother stood up to stop them in order to protect the Chen family's reputation, and was nearly killed by these beasts."
"Look, if your grandmother hadn't dodged quickly, it wouldn't have been her hair that was chopped off, but her head."
He and his father fought off the Japanese pirates in Linhai to defend their country and protect the safety of the people.
He never thought that his own nest would be destroyed. How could he bear it?
This is how the current emperor treats these loyal ministers and generals.
He has always understood that when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dogs will be cooked. But now the cunning rabbits are not all dead yet, and the emperor is targeting these people. Isn't he afraid that his kingdom will be in chaos!
At this time, Liu Ailian, who had hurried over with Shen Zhao, saw her son who had gained the upper hand, and immediately cried to Chen Chaoyang:
"My son, you finally arrived. I was almost separated from you... Chaoyang... Chaoyang..."
Chen Chaoyang was already angry, and when he saw his mother being escorted by two guards and shouting at him desperately, his anger instantly reached its peak.
His mother was always gentle and dignified in front of him, and a typical lady from a noble family who abided by the rules in front of others.
Every gesture, every smile and frown is elegant.
When did she cry like this in front of everyone? She was completely different from the mother she used to be.
How much stimulation and grievance must my mother have suffered to become like this.
Chen Chaoyang's eyes were bloodshot, and he gripped the red tasseled spear in his hand so tightly that it made a creaking sound.
Shout loudly.
"You beasts, let go of my mother!"
As he spoke, Chen Chaoyang wielded his spear with great power, and the whistling sound of the spear breaking through the air could be heard in the air.
He attacked directly towards Shen Zhao.
My mother appeared with this man, and it must have been him who ordered someone to harm my mother like this.
No matter who he is, I will kill him today.
Seeing this, Wu Yunfeng quickly flew forward and started fighting with Chen Chaoyang.
"Chaoyang, calm down. Things are not what you think. Since you entered this house, you have only obeyed the Chen family's words. Have you listened to even a fraction of what I said to you?"
Chen Chaoyang's moves were fierce and he showed a desperate posture.
Wu Yunfeng only defended and did not attack, trying to persuade the radical Chen Chaoyang.
But Chen Chaoyang couldn't listen to Wu Yunfeng's words.
He already looked like he was mad with killing intent.
"Wu Yunfeng, how do you expect me to stay calm? My mother and my grandmother have been bullied like this. If it were you, I don't believe you would be such a coward and sit back and do nothing."
"They are just women. How could they have committed such a heinous crime and suffered such humiliation?"
"Wu Yunfeng, if you still consider me, Chen Chaoyang, a brother, then get out of my way immediately and let me kill the beast who ordered others to bully my Chen family!"
Chen Chaoyang's men continued to attack and even had murderous intentions towards their former brothers.
Since Wu Yunfeng is in cahoots with that thief, don't blame Chen Chaoyang for disregarding the brotherhood they have developed over the years.
"Brother, stop it!"
Chen Baoyi shouted loudly at Chen Chaoyang.
"Prince Zhong and General Wu did not harm my grandmother and mother..."
Old Madam Chen and Liu Ailian both started to scold Chen Baoyi.
"You treacherous little bastard, shut up!"
"Baoyi, if you still have me as your mother in your heart, don't side with outsiders!"
At this time, Shen Zhao said:
"Yunfeng, stop. I believe that Prince Chen is not someone who doesn't know right from wrong."
Wu Yunfeng looked at Prince Zhong worriedly, but saw Prince Zhong nodded at him.
Wu Yunfeng retracted his strength and retreated to a safe area.
However, he still kept an eye on Chen Chaoyang vigilantly, not wanting Chen Chaoyang to be deceived and do something that he would regret.
This time, Chen Chaoyang did not attack Chen Zhao directly.
Instead, he slammed the red tasseled spear to the ground.
"You were the commander-in-chief of the Zhongwang Camp in the capital. I have often heard of your great name. I never thought that General Chu, who is known for his kindness and compassion for his country and his people, would bully women and children. Do you deserve the praise you receive from the world?"
Shen Zhao was not annoyed by Chen Chaoyang's hostile attitude.
"When did Prince Chen enter the capital?"
"Half an hour ago."
"Then Prince Chen has heard that the camp in the capital was attacked and countless soldiers were killed or wounded."
Chen Chaoyang frowned. This was happening right under the emperor's feet. Who dared to attack the camp in the capital?
Prince Zhong asked him this, could it be that the attack on the camp in the capital was related to the Duke of Chen's mansion?
How is this possible? My father is loyal to the emperor and patriotic. He would never betray the emperor, the court, or kill his colleagues!
"I feel deeply distressed about the tragic situation in the camp in the capital, but what does this have to do with my Chen Guogong Mansion?"
"I only want to ask one question: what mistake did the Duke of Chen's Mansion make that caused the prince and General Wu to mobilize such a large force to surround our mansion?"
"What mistakes did my grandmother and mother make to deserve such cruelty from the prince?"
"Since Prince Chen asked, I will tell you why I surrounded Duke Chen's mansion."
Shen Zhao's expression became extremely serious.
"That's because the people who attacked the Jingzhong Camp were from the Northwest Army of Linhai. They disguised themselves as refugees and begged the Jingzhong Camp to stay."
"They turned around and poisoned the brothers in the camp and started a massacre. Countless lives were tragically lost by their swords. They also kidnapped Pang Yunjin, the son of Grand Tutor Pang."
"Brother Yunjin was kidnapped by those people? How could he endure this with his poor health?" The first person Chen Chaoyang thought of was Pang Yunjin.
He then added, "Those people were not my father's direct subordinates. Who knows if they were bribed? How could the prince be so sure that those people were sent by my Chen family?"
"It is because of this frame-up that anyone with a discerning eye can see through that the prince did not pursue the real murderer, but instead came to cause trouble for our Chen Guogong Mansion."
"Your Highness, by doing this, you are falling into the trap set by the thieves, and pitting the Linhai Army against the Jingzhong Camp!"
Facing Chen Chaoyang's angry and puzzled eyes, Shen Zhao looked at Liu Ailian and said:
