Chapter 407: Two Groups
Su Chenyu is about to be captured, how could Rong Zhang be willing to return to Tang at this time?
"Xuan Ling, after I deal with these people from Dayu, I will go back to Tang with you."
After returning to Beirong, Xuan Ling knew that he was obeying the orders of the King of Beirong. This time he specially brought the golden sword to find him. He was afraid that the King of Beirong had already known that he had secretly mobilized the army to capture Su Chenyu.
“Prince Rong Zhang, you stole the military order and mobilized the army privately, which has already angered His Majesty. If you insist on not going back, are you trying to take the opportunity to rebel?” Xuan Ling looked at Rong Zhang, still with that calm look, as if he was looking at an insignificant person.
Indeed, for Xuan Ling, all he had to do was to execute the life of the King of Beirong. It didn't matter who the other party was.
Rong Zhang was a little annoyed. He came to intercept Su Chenyu and her group because he had found out their whereabouts. If he reported to the King of Beirong first, he would have to wait a long time before he could agree. By that time, Su Chenyu and her group would probably have returned to Dayu, and Huang Yu's food would be cold.
That's why he secretly used the military token, thinking that if he could bring Su Chenyu back, it would be considered as a pardon for his crime. After all, the King of Beirong also knew the prophecy, and it was inevitable to get rid of Su Chenyu.
"When a general is away from home, his army may not accept his orders." Rong Zhang made up his mind. "I will explain it to my father in person. Just give me a little more time. Why is Xuantong so inflexible? If my father gives me a reward, I will not leave out Xuantong's share."
Xuan Ling took out his sword and said, "Your Majesty, if Prince Rong Zhang disobeys your orders, you can use this imperial sword to chop off his head."
Rong Zhang recognized the imperial sword, but he was still unwilling to give up. Seeing that Rong Zhang did not react, Xuan Ling drew his sword and flew towards Rong Zhang.
Rong Zhang immediately began to dodge, but how could he be a match for Xuan Ling?
The soldiers around wanted to help, but Xuan Ling had the golden sword and the Shang Fang sword in his hands, so who dared to touch him?
In the end, Rong Zhang was defeated by Xuan Ling and was completely suppressed by him. Just when Xuan Ling stabbed Rong Zhang's forehead with a sword, Rong Zhang hurriedly said: "I will lead the troops and go back with you immediately."
Xuan Ling put away his sword and put it back into the scabbard indifferently: "The emperor is here in person, please come in, Prince Rong Zhang."
Hearing this, Rong Zhang was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that King Beirong would come in person. How worried was he about his son?
"Why didn't you say it at the beginning?"
Xuan Ling said in a businesslike manner: "I am following orders. The emperor specifically instructed that Prince Rong Zhang can only be informed of his itinerary after he agrees to return."
Now the health of King Beirong is not as good as before, Rong Zhang is now powerful and is in a situation of competing with the crown prince. King Beirong came to the border specifically for the crown prince.
He was worried that Rong Zhang would take the opportunity to rebel. By then, the King of Beirong would pay with his own life to completely confirm Rong Zhang's reputation of killing his father for the throne. The prince, who was far away in the capital, would be able to sit firmly on the throne.
Rong Zhang felt bitter. The King of Beirong had been planning for the Crown Prince until his death, so what was his son to him?
Rong Zhang got on his horse again. He turned around and glanced at Su Chenyu and the others. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only watch the cooked duck fly away.
After Rong Zhang withdrew his troops, Su Chenyu and others finally breathed a sigh of relief. If Xuan Ling had not come today, they would have been really dead.
"It seems that the current situation in Beirong is not clear, otherwise the King of Beirong would not take action." Su Chenyu reminded, "Let's go quickly and leave Beirong as soon as possible."
At this moment, Ciyu suddenly fainted without any warning. Wutong hugged Ciyu and found that her whole body was burning hot: "Princess, Ciyu suddenly had a high fever."
