The eagle circled in the air, barely avoiding the arrows that were shot at it. Before it could fly away, it was hit by another arrow from the opponent.
The arrow passed through the edge of the eagle's wing and fell down. The eagle was injured and barely flew away with blood dripping.
The man standing on the high place saw the eagle flying away, and he was so angry that he clenched his bow and looked fierce.
"Master, the eagle has flown away. Do we need our people to intercept it?" A middle-aged man in black clothes and a beard stood beside his master, looking into the distance.
"No need. Maybe the eagle just now was sent by the northern barbarians to gather information. It flew away and that's it."
After handing the bow and arrow to the other party, Junshan King Xiao Long put his hands behind his back with a dignified look, looking towards the direction of the capital with a mysterious gaze, wondering what he was thinking.
"Your Highness, news has come from the capital. His Royal Highness the Prince of Han framed General Tao Zhihong for embezzling military funds. His Majesty has stripped him of his title and exiled him to the Imperial Mausoleum. The Seventh Princess was not spared either and has been imprisoned in the Imperial Temple for retreat."
The people beside him reported in detail what happened in the court in the capital.
After hearing this, Prince Junshan sneered, "My brother, after so many years, has come to trust that dog Tao Zhihong. To protect Tao Zhihong, he even punished his own daughter. This is a good thing for the Great Zhou, but it's not a good thing for me."
Prince Junshan turned around and walked down the mountain.
"Your Highness, the Prince of Yue has restored his status and position due to his contribution in saving the Queen Mother. With Concubine Huo and him, there are probably some people who don't need you to do anything yourself."
The middle-aged man following behind his master has always admired his master's abilities.
In the eyes of outsiders, their prince has been away from the capital for many years and has no influence on the affairs of the capital.
This idea blinded the eyes of many people. Even though his prince had been away for many years, he had full control over all forces in the capital.
"The Xiaoyu Guards are thoroughly investigating the child abduction case in the capital. They will arrive in Lingzhou soon. Go and inform the man at the mansion to make all preparations and not reveal any clues!"
As the late emperor's son, Prince Junshan was only in his thirties, about the same age as Tao Zhihongda, but much younger than the average person.
She is well maintained and looks only in her twenties.
His elegant temperament and cold, young face are very deceptive.
The middle-aged man couldn't help but speak out his true feelings and angrily complained on behalf of his master.
"Back then, it was all because of that reckless man named Tao that disrupted your plans. Otherwise, the position you hold today would be yours."
The Junshan King looked at him with a cold gaze. The startled middle-aged man replied, "Yes, I will go and pass on the message immediately."
After everyone left, Xiao Long came to a nearby bamboo forest, and a figure suddenly appeared.
"Fei Qiong greets the master!" A young man in white, holding the hilt of a sword, stood behind Xiao Long and saluted.
"This time, we will enter the capital in a low-key manner and use Concubine Huo to eliminate the General's Mansion and disrupt everything in the capital. Then, it will be my chance to make a comeback."
When the person behind him heard the words "Great General Guarding the Nation", a strong hatred flashed across his young and handsome face.
"Okay, I'll listen to your orders, Master!"
Not long after, Xiao Long, accompanied by his guards, disguised himself and headed towards the capital.
Outside Fengwei Residence where Tao Yuwei lives.
After seeing off the palace servants who came to give rewards, Tao Zhihong and his wife hurried over.
The two head maids, Yunxiao and Baishuang, bowed respectfully when they saw the couple.
"Where's that girl? Call her out!"
Tao Zhihong was determined to teach his daughter a lesson.
Yunxiao suddenly remembered at this time that her princess had been bathing for more than half an hour and had not come out.
Something is wrong.
She flashed and rushed into the bathroom.
When she saw Tao Yuwei lying motionless at the bottom of the bathtub, she turned pale with fright and screamed.
