Wu Nu responded and immediately took action.

As soon as she left, a secret guard flashed over and said, "Master, the latest battle report from the Northern Frontier."

Kneel on one knee and offer with both hands.

This is also the news that Zong Zhengli must pay attention to every day.

He took the secret letter and calculated carefully with his fingers. According to the plan, the Huns would launch a surprise attack last night. The Huns had a detailed map of King Chen's marching formation and a defense map of the city. With the weapons and assistance provided by the Gu family, they could easily capture King Chen in one fell swoop.

It seems that King Chen is in danger.

He curled his thin lips slightly and opened the secret letter.

When I saw the contents of the letter, my expression froze...

King Chen...

Return triumphantly?!

"What do you mean!" He slammed the letter on the table, stood up, and the murderous aura in his body instantly burst out, shocking the secret guard so much that he lowered his head.

"Master, calm down. I heard that in the battle last night, King Chen led the Xiongnu into the city and then closed the city gates, catching the turtle in the jar..."

In this battle, the Huns suffered a crushing defeat.

Early this morning, Prince Chen reorganized his army and returned triumphantly, and will arrive in the imperial capital soon.

"How could it be... How could Zong Zhengchen return victoriously..."

Zong Zhengli was extremely shocked.

He had clearly planned everything and accounted for every step of Zong Zhengchen's journey, so how could he receive such unexpected news?

Zong Zhengchen's army and defense were leaked.

The Gu family also supported the Huns.

With his and the Gu family's help, they and the Xiongnu besieged King Chen, attacking from both sides. Even if Zong Zhengchen grew wings, it would be difficult for him to escape. How could this happen...

What went wrong?

He was startled.

Gu family!

"Go, call Gu Qingqing!"

It must be the Gu family who betrayed him!

Damn it!

He was wondering why Qin Ye had been so well behaved recently, staying at home all day, not going out of the house, and taking care of the pregnancy peacefully. It turned out that he was hiding a secret.

If Zong Zhengchen were allowed to return safely, he would definitely retaliate against him.

By then, dealing with Zong Zhengchen will not be an easy task.

soon.

Gu Qingqing is here.

"Leaving the palace..."

"What did you do!" Before she could finish her words, the man grabbed her collar. The man's voice was as cold as a cicada, "Gu Qingqing, when your Gu family was at its lowest point, it was me who helped you. But as soon as your Gu family stood up, you can't wait to bite back?"

Gu Qingqing knew what he was talking about:

"Your Highness, this is wrong. When we cooperated, the Gu family promised to provide the Xiongnu with the most advanced new weapons. The Gu family has already provided them and has not violated our willingness to cooperate."

"you!"

This bitch!

How dare you play word games with him!

"Isn't it?" Gu Qingqing asked back.

Zong Zhengli's face was gloomy and his eyes were so cold that they almost looked murderous, as if he wished he could eat Gu Qingqing alive.

This damn bitch!

good!

Very good!

He laughed in anger:

"Hahaha, you Gu family are really good at playing games. You took advantage of me and then turned the tables on me. Good, good!"

Gu Qingqing.

Family-oriented.

You better pray that the day never comes when you have to ask me for help again.

Otherwise, I will let you know what it means to regret!

He threw Gu Qingqing away angrily. Thinking about the news that Zong Zhengchen would return to the imperial capital soon, he became more and more angry. He angrily swept away the pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, and smashed them all to the ground.

Very angry.

As I got angry, I regained my sanity:

"Does Princess Chen know about the news of Prince Chen's triumphant return?"

On the side, the trembling secret guard whispered:

"The news from the palace has always been half a day slower than ours. The news will only be delivered to the palace this evening, and then passed on to Prince Chen's Mansion."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Zong Zhengli raised his eyebrows slightly, and the anger in his eyes dissipated a little, gradually overflowing with a deep light.
