Chapter 523: Becoming King
"Stop!" The third prince's dark pupils suddenly tightened, and his voice was terrifyingly sharp.
The old soldier hurriedly stopped and asked respectfully, "Your Majesty, is there anything wrong?"
Seeing that his expression seemed different, Shen Wan gently pushed Xie Mubai.
"Is he yours?" she asked curiously, blinking her big watery eyes.
Xie Mubai nodded slightly.
After hearing this, Shen Wan couldn't help but want to laugh.
I have to say that the villain's intelligence network is so powerful that he actually placed people next to the third prince. No wonder he knows so much about the battle situation outside without leaving his house.
"Pick up that token on the ice!"
Just as I was daydreaming, the third prince's cold voice came from outside.
Looking up, I saw a guard quickly picking up the token and handing it over with both hands.
The third prince tightly grasped the token, his cloudy eyes filled with spider-web-like scarlet bloodshot.
This is a half-worn black iron token, engraved with the logo of the Prince's Mansion.
It’s him, it’s actually him!
That’s right.
If anything happens to him, the entire Wei kingdom will fall into the hands of the prince.
In comparison, the threat posed by the prince to him is a hundred times, a thousand times greater than that posed by Su Wen!
"Pass the order down and set off for Liangzhou immediately!" Thinking of this, the third prince's eyes turned cold and his voice was terrifyingly sharp.
Wasn’t Liangzhou City just captured by the prince? What are they doing now?
Help defend the city?
Or fight the enemy together?
No way, it seems that their relationship as brothers is not that good yet.
The soldiers racked their brains but still couldn't come up with a reason.
They didn't understand, but the old military supervisor did.
If I'm not mistaken, the Third Prince, who has ulterior motives, is really determined to rebel this time.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look pale.
"Your Highness, don't go!" the old military supervisor, his face gloomy, shouted at the top of his voice, "You are not in good health and are not suited to long journeys!"
"Besides, the foreign troops just evacuated Liangzhou not long ago. If they come back to attack us, it will be troublesome!"
It was true that he disliked the Third Prince, but he was truly afraid of death.
What a joke! Knowing that he is the dog emperor's spy, would the third prince still listen to him?
The third prince did not say anything, but just patted the broken drum at his waist in annoyance.
Upon hearing the dull drumbeat, the old military supervisor screamed in pain and fainted in the carriage.
"Noisy!" The Third Prince cursed fiercely with a dark face. "Whoever dares to say anything more will suffer the consequences!"
Looking at the unconscious old military supervisor, the soldiers were so scared that they dared not say anything and could only quicken their pace forward. They did not think that their face was greater than that of the old military supervisor.
Looking at the army that was gradually moving away, Shen Wan looked at Xie Mubai excitedly: "The two brothers are finally going to fight."
Fight, fight quickly!
Once their forces are exhausted, the villain can send out his troops."
As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
After the Battle of Yumen Pass, the Wei army suffered heavy losses and 100,000 elite soldiers were wiped out.
In order to resist the invasion of foreign countries, the dog emperor gave each of the two brothers an army of 100,000.
If Xie Mubai confronted this 200,000-strong army head-on, even if he won, he would have to pay a heavy price.
When both sides are defeated, they can reap the benefits.
Xie Mubai smiled calmly, as if this matter was not worth mentioning at all to him.
The more he acted as if he didn't care, the more Shen Wan admired him.
"You're so smart!" She put her arms around the villain's neck and kissed him hard. "I must have saved the galaxy in my previous life, so I met you in this life!"
"I don't care, I must marry you, and you are not allowed to marry anyone else!"
It’s a pity that there is no one selling lottery tickets in Dawei.
Otherwise, with my luck, I can definitely win the first prize!
Xie Mubai reached out and held her in his arms, his eyes full of doting: "Don't worry, no one wants me except you!"
To be honest, he really didn't know what this little woman was so nervous about.
He was frail, cold-tempered, and a fugitive.
Apart from her, what other woman would be attracted to me?
"What if it really is true?" Shen Wan pouted and asked coquettishly.
Xie Mubai smiled and kissed her smooth forehead: "If there really are, then I will drive them away!"
After hearing this, Shen Wan became even happier.
She was extremely happy here, but the prince almost cried out loud in Liangzhou City.
It is true that he wants to get rid of the Third Prince, who is his biggest threat, but he doesn't want to start a head-on war so soon!
He didn't want to fight, but the third prince wanted to, very much!
If he doesn't fight now, he will be killed by this cowardly prince!
As a result, the Liangzhou City, which had just been captured from foreign countries, was once again plunged into the smoke of war.
When it comes to leading troops in battle, perhaps the crown prince is no worse than the third prince.
It was just that the Third Prince had robbed Master Ling Xiaoxiao's treasure. Whenever he played the flute, all kinds of evil insects would take advantage of the opportunity to swarm in and defeat the Crown Prince's army. The Crown Prince was even taken prisoner.
Upon learning that his two sons were not fighting against foreign countries but were killing each other, the Dog Emperor was so exhausted that he fainted.
After being in a coma for three days and three nights, the Dog Emperor finally woke up.
Although he knew that the third prince was rebelling, after weighing the pros and cons again and again, the dog emperor could only swallow his anger and send people to mediate.
But the third prince killed the envoy with a knife, occupied Liangzhou City and proclaimed himself king.
"He actually dared to declare himself king?" Shen Wan was shocked when she heard the news.
Now that foreign countries are invading, it does not seem to be a wise move for the third prince to declare himself king at this critical juncture.
The first bird to stick its head out gets shot.
As long as he becomes king first, it will be enough for some restless people to rise up and take advantage of this opportunity to get a piece of the pie.
Xie Mubai was not surprised.
He made a cup of hot tea for Shen Wan and smiled faintly: “The latest news is that the third prince and Tuoba Yu have reached an agreement.”
"As long as it helps him ascend the throne, he is willing to give Lanyang and other sixteen counties to Tuoba Yu."
"Wan'er, we will soon become foreigners."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wan was so shocked that she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
I have to say that the third prince is really insidious.
He was afraid of the villain and Su Wen, so he directly gave the hot potato of Lanyang City to Tuoba Yu!
As long as Lan Yang becomes a foreign territory, it will be of no use even if Su Wen's identity is exposed.
And there's the big villain.
If he wants to raise an army for revenge, he must first get past Tuoba Yu!
"Did Tuoba Yu agree?" Shen Wan asked angrily after taking a sip of tea.
Xie Mubai smiled and said, "With such an attractive offer, there's no reason for Tuoba Yu not to agree."
"It's true that Tuoba Yu has ambitions, but he doesn't have the stomach to swallow up the entire Wei Dynasty."
After hearing this, Shen Wan immediately drew a small circle in her heart and cursed the Third Prince.
Let him continue to show off!
Even with Aunt Hua's medicine to keep him alive, I believe he won't be able to hold on for much longer.
She wanted to know how the Third Prince felt when he couldn't enjoy the kingdom he had fought so hard for.
"Then let's continue watching the show now?" Shen Wan asked with a smile.
Xie Mubai nodded: "Of course."
"If my guess is correct, they will split into two groups and attack the capital in a few days."
Of course he was not wrong.
Within a few days, the person crying changed from the prince to the dog emperor.
In order to check and balance the third prince, the dog emperor gave all the troops at hand to the prince.
As a result, the huge capital city became a deserted city.
As long as the Third Prince is willing, he can raze it to the ground at any time!
