In two years, Yuan Zhan led an army of 300,000 and his generals to surround the Wu tribe in three directions, annihilating all of its forces. After that, they continued to advance deeper, fought a great battle with the leader of the Wu tribe, and returned triumphantly.
During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong, the crown prince was sent to provide disaster relief when he was besieged by a group of refugees and fell off his horse, breaking his right leg. The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. Many noble families were confiscated and exiled, but the crown prince was no longer eligible for the throne. After that, Yuan Xi was named Prince Chen and competed with Prince Su.
Concubine Wan was also conferred the title of Imperial Concubine, and for a time she was the most popular concubine.
After Concubine Wan was canonized as a noble concubine, Noble Concubine Sheng always thought of how Concubine Wan was just a lowly palace maid before, but now she was on equal footing with her. In addition, her brother, Marquis Xuanping, died in the battlefield, and her mother's family gradually lost power, while Concubine Wan's family was rising rapidly. For a while, she was always depressed and could never vent it, so she often made trouble for Concubine Wan. However, her scheming was far inferior to that of Concubine Wan, and she often fell into disadvantage in the palace fights, leaving the impression in the emperor's mind that she was spoiled and willful, and bullied the harem.
Tu Yufan watched the changing situation in the capital and recalled that at this time in the original plot, all these princes and emperors seemed to have been killed by the evil Yuan Zhan.
There will be no follow-up of these people.
.......
Here, Yuan Zhan returned to the capital with two elite troops. When the team passed through Jiazhou, someone suddenly brought him an imperial edict, informing him that a flood had breached the dike at nearby Yuzhou Pass and he was required to go to the disaster relief immediately.
Yuan Zhan took the imperial edict with a smile, and looked up at the person who read it out. The person suddenly felt his heart tremble and almost knelt down.
"Your Highness, all the troops near Chengzhou must go to the front to provide disaster relief. Please go immediately without delay!" The man suppressed his fear and spoke as if nothing had happened.
Yuan Zhan looked at the other person's slightly shaking hand with a half-smile, his eyes mixed with murderous intent.
"I will obey your order!"
Seeing that the messenger had not left yet, Yuan Zhan said in a deep voice: "Everyone, follow me to Chenzhou!"
"yes!"
Yuan Zhan led the team to change direction and head towards Chengzhou.
Arrived at a secluded place in the forest.
A masked man stepped out. His figure was similar to Yuan Zhan. If you didn't look at their faces, there seemed to be no difference between the two. This was Yuan Zhan's confidant Wu Zhao.
"Your Highness, let me take your place in Chengzhou."
"Wu Zhao, don't be careless in Chengzhou. Since they want to ambush me, they must have made a foolproof plan."
Wu Zhao patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. They are just a mob. Your Highness should be careful too."
Wu Zhao took the army to Chengzhou in place of Yuan Zhan, while Yuan Zhan changed into casual clothes and continued to go to the capital. When passing by a city, the refugees and beggars who had been waiting outside the city for a long time stood up one after another, and their aura changed in an instant, and they turned out to be soldiers mixed in the crowd.
......
A mountain villa outside the capital.
Prince Su and Prince Chen sat opposite each other. Normally, they were incompatible with each other, but when Yuan Zhan was about to go to Beijing, they unexpectedly chose to cooperate.
"Don't be nervous, my brother. Since the third brother has already taken over Chengzhou, we just need to wait for the news from there."
