Chapter 809 "Proxy War"
"What's going on?"
"Never mind our business, just go!"
"Do you want to report to the police?"
"What the hell do you think your life is too long?
"Stop looking! Run!"
“.”
Soon, when the sound of fierce fighting was heard from Prince Kang's Mansion, the surrounding streets and alleys fell into chaos.
The people were fleeing from this troubled place, and officials were riding towards them from the end of the street.
Just three days after Lu Yuansong's death, Prince Kang's mansion was also attacked by an assassin.
Anyone can guess that these two things must have been ordered by the same person, but no one knows who has the courage to do so.
Or in other words, who will benefit from these two "family annihilation cases"?
The eldest prince? The third prince? There is no doubt that in the minds of the people, the eldest prince Lu Yuanjin should be the most suspicious one.
But what everyone didn’t know was that at this moment, Lu Yuanjin, who was on Longshou Mountain, was also extremely shocked.
"What?!!"
Lu Yuanjin, dressed in a white robe, stood up from behind the desk with anger written all over his face.
Compared with Lu Yuansong, he gives people a more stable impression.
But even so, Lu Yuanjin still couldn't suppress his inner irritation at this time.
"It must be Wei Changtian!"
"It must be Wei Changtian!!"
Pacing back and forth with a sullen face, Lu Yuanjin kept repeating the same sentence.
Although from the perspective of superficial interests, the death of Lu Yuansong and Lu Xiangshan should be a good thing for him.
But Lu Yuanjin is not such a short-sighted person. In fact, he has already guessed what Wei Changtian’s real intention is.
This also means that the latter will come to kill him sooner or later. Facing Wei Changtian, if they were to open up and "code a battle" with each other, Lu Yuanjin was not afraid.
But the problem is that Wei Changtian did not fight him "openly", but was always waiting for an opportunity in the dark.
The enemy is in the dark while I am in the light. This is a very dangerous thing.
If the enemy's strength is extremely terrifying, the situation will undoubtedly be even more difficult.
After all, you can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever.
As long as Wei Changtian seizes this opportunity, what will be waiting for him will be His fingers trembled violently, and Lu Yuanjin stopped thinking about it.
At this moment, the fear in his heart had surpassed his anger, and also made him feel deeply powerless.
He knew that Wei Changtian would never let him go, nor would he let Da Hui go.
Therefore, the best option for me now might be to escape immediately.
Before Wei Changtian can kill him, give up the fight for the throne and flee from Dahui, the farther the better.
At least this way I can still keep my life .
Slowly closing his eyes, Lu Yuanjin sighed heavily.
Of course, he was unwilling to escape in such disgrace and hand over the Dahui Wandai foundation to Wei Changtian.
But if I don't escape, will I continue to live in fear?
If this is the case, what will happen even if he sits on the throne? His mind is getting more and more confused, and Lu Yuanjin has no idea how to break the deadlock.
At this moment, a guard pushed the door open and reported:
"Your Highness, there is someone outside the palace asking to see you!"
"not see!"
Lu Yuanjin waved his hands impatiently, his tone very anxious.
But the guard did not leave upon hearing the order. Instead, he lowered his head and added in a low voice: "Your Highness, the people who came here are all at a very high level, and there are three second-grade masters among them."
"Um?"
Lu Yuanjin paused, turned his head and frowned and asked, "What's the name of the leader?"
"Your Highness, the man calls him Chu Xianping."
"Chu Xianping?!"
His eyes suddenly widened. Of course, Lu Yuanjin had heard of Chu Xianping's name, and it could even be said that he was "well-known".
But he didn't understand why Chu Xianping was in Yongding City, and he didn't understand why he came to him.
"Go, invite him in."
After thinking for a moment, Lu Yuanjin seemed to understand something. He suddenly straightened his clothes and sat back at the desk.
"Remember to be polite."
“.”
"Mr. Chu, I have long heard of your great name!"
Soon, Lu Yuanjin met Chu Xianping who came directly to Longshou Mountain from Zhuwu.
Looking at the smiling Lv Yuanjin, Chu Xianping didn't say a word, not even the most basic courtesy, and the first sentence he said was -
"Your Highness, are you not ready to escape?"
“.”
His expression suddenly froze on his face. Lu Yuanjin's face changed several times, and then returned to normal after a few breaths.
He stared at Chu Xianping, took a deep breath and asked:
"Mr. Chu, are you here to help me?"
"You can understand it that way."
Chu Xianping sat down on a random chair and said slowly, "Your Highness, I know you must have a lot of questions to ask me, so I will get straight to the point."
"Wei Changtian wanted to support Gongsun Yan to become emperor. To this end, he has killed the second prince Lu Yuansong. It is estimated that King Kang will not be able to escape today."
"Then it will be your turn sooner or later."
"But I can ensure that you don't die, and even succeed in ascending the throne."
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to. I believe the Third Prince will be very happy with this opportunity."
"Your Highness, I won't give you too much time to think about it."
"Please give me an answer immediately whether you agree or not."
After Chu Xianping finished his last sentence, he stopped looking at Lu Yuanjin and lowered his eyes. He kept tapping the armrests of the chair with his fingers, as if calculating the time the latter was thinking.
Lu Yuanjin just stared at him blankly, with countless questions in his mind.
However, although he had many questions, he finally just asked one question in a deep voice.
"Mr. Chu, if I agree to your request, what do you want?"
"Your Highness should know this."
Chu Xianping glanced at Lu Yuanjin and replied coldly: "Whatever Gongsun Yan paid, you have to pay."
“.”
Whatever Gongsun Yan pays, you have to pay.
The meaning of Chu Xianping's words was clear, that is, he wanted Lu Yuanjin to work for him in the future.
And if Lu Yuanjin really agreed to this condition, it would undoubtedly mean that the battle for the throne would become a contest between Wei Changtian and Chu Xianping.
Now, it has only been a month since the two parted ways, and they have turned from friends to enemies.
Wei Changtian must have had mixed feelings after learning about this. "Okay! I agree!"
On the other side, after a brief thought, Lu Yuanjin finally gritted his teeth and made a decision.
After all, no matter what, only by doing this can you save your life and save the big return.
He had no choice.
"Mr. Chu, from today on, my men and I are willing to obey your orders!"
"good."
Chu Xianping stood up slowly and said word by word: "Then please come with me out of the palace to a place now, Your Highness."
"Leaving the palace? Where to?"
Lu Yuanjin was stunned and asked subconsciously.
But Chu Xianping had already turned around and walked several steps away, and only the calm voice came over.
"Prince An's Mansion."
