Chapter 287 Lu Chenghong is dead



Lu Chenghong remained calm, looking slightly sideways at the eldest prince who was sitting at the head of the tent, and asked, "What does your Highness mean?"

The eldest prince snorted coldly, looked at Lu Chenghong and said with gritted teeth: "General Lu, instead of asking this prince, you might as well ask yourself, what have you done to let my father and Wang Jun down?"

Lu Chenghong's heart skipped a beat: "I don't understand what the eldest prince meant. I have been following your majesty's orders and leading the royal army to retreat to Fenglan. I don't know what I did to offend the eldest prince. I hope the eldest prince will forgive me."

Lu Chenghong's words were suggestive, as he made it seem like the eldest prince was abusing his power for personal gain and deliberately making trouble for him.

The eldest prince was no fool. He immediately understood the meaning of the words and said angrily, "What nonsense! Look at this for yourself!"

The secret letter was thrown in front of Lu Chenghong, which clearly stated the evidence of his collusion with Duoze. Lu Chenghong's face changed immediately, and he ignored the blade on his neck and stepped forward to the eldest prince.

"Prince." Lu Chenghong's face was stern, and he asked fiercely, "Who gave you this? Everything said above is a lie. The person who gave it to you has ulterior motives and is trying to sow discord. You must not keep him! Where is he?"

"You...you are so bold! What are you going to do!" The eldest prince was forced to retreat step by step. Seeing this, the second prince behind him picked up the teacup at hand and threw it over. Lu Chenghong did not dodge or evade, and blood soon flowed from his forehead.

The situation became more and more tense. The eldest prince hurriedly protected the second prince behind him and, holding his composure, stood in front of Lu Chenghong.

"Lu Chenghong, you dare to kill us! You colluded with the traitor Duoze and intended to disrupt the country. The evidence is irrefutable. You deserve to be killed. What else do you have to say?"

Lu Chenghong shouted loudly, "What nonsense! I have something to say! I was loyal to the two princes, but I didn't expect you to bite me back. It's really disheartening. Since the two princes are willing to be deceived by the traitors, don't blame me for not considering your majesty's feelings! Come on, ask the first and second princes to return home! They are not allowed to come out without my permission."

"Let's see who dares!" An angry shout suddenly came from outside the tent, full of energy and deafening. Then the tent was opened from the outside, and a white-haired general strode in.

"General Ahan! Are you still alive?" The soldiers looked at the person who came in, full of surprise. It was Ahan Ersa.

Ahan Ersa walked slowly into the tent, looked at Lu Chenghong, and said, "You must have thought I was dead, but Lu Chenghong didn't want me to die. He even tried to force me to tell him the whereabouts of the Third Prince's jade seal. How could he bear to let me die!"

Lu Chenghong's face turned pale. He looked at the two people behind Ahan Ersa and asked, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into the military camp!"

Lu Yanluo, who was in disguise, sneered when she heard this: "Lord Lu, you'd better take care of yourself. Now that the evidence is irrefutable, how else do you want to quibble?"

Early this morning, Chu Xuan took Lu Yanluo to the prison, took the eldest prince's order, and released several ministers who were imprisoned by Lu Chenghong.

Lu Chenghong stared at Lu Yanluo and suddenly smiled: "I remember you. You are the Third Prince's man. You came to my house before and asked me to send troops to find the Third Prince. What? Are you here to help the Third Prince eliminate dissidents?"

"Your Highness, you are being used without even realizing it. They are using you to get rid of me so that they can smoothly welcome the Third Prince back. Don't you see that?"

"Shut up!" Ahan Ersa shouted, "At this time, you still don't repent and are still trying to sow discord! You colluded with Duoze, so that the rebels were unstoppable and captured the imperial city. Now you dare to try to provoke a fight between the princes. Lu Chenghong, in a hundred years, you will be the eternal sinner of Fengxi!"

Lu Chenghong sneered disdainfully and said slowly: "Ah Han, you are wrong. History books are written by the victors. In the future, it is too early to say who will be remembered in history and who will be infamous."

Lu Chenghong then looked at the eldest prince and encouraged him, "Your Highness, as long as you kill these people in front of you, I promise that I will definitely support you to become the next emperor. What do you think? Do you really want to watch the third prince come back and ascend the throne smoothly, and step on you under his feet?"

The eldest prince walked slowly to Lu Chenghong and smiled suddenly: "Lu Chenghong, do you think I am a fool? Do you think you can control me? Do you really take yourself seriously? Among the three of us brothers, it doesn't matter who sits on the throne, but it will never be you or that bastard Duoze! How can a traitor dare to shout in my royal army tent!"

Before he finished speaking, everyone heard the sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh. Looking closely, they saw that it was the eldest prince who stabbed Lu Chenghong with a dagger.

Lu Chenghong's eyes widened, and he slowly lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the dagger that pierced into his body.

"You..." As soon as the words came out of his mouth, blood began to flow out of his mouth uncontrollably.

The eldest prince quickly let go of the dagger and took a few steps back, apparently frightened.

Soon, Lu Chenghong fell to the ground and died.

Lu Yanluo couldn't help but shook her head as she looked at Lu Chenghong, who died with his eyes open.

[It seems that Lu Chenghong calculated this and that, thinking that he could control people's hearts, but he ended up dying at the hands of the eldest prince, whom he thought was the easiest to control. How sad and lamentable.]

Lu Chenghong is dead, Ahan Ersa is back, and Wang Jun begins to investigate from within to prevent anyone else from mixing up and causing chaos.

After this incident, the eldest prince suddenly became well-behaved and stayed indoors all day long. Only the second prince would take him out for a walk when he had nothing to do.

Chu Xuan and Lu Yanluo also moved out of the Sun Mansion and returned to the house where they lived before. After Lu Cheng's death, Fenglan seemed to have returned to peace, but in fact the third prince was still missing and the jade seal had not been found, so everyone still had to stay in Fenglan.

Just when everyone thought that the road ahead was bleak, a man quietly entered Fenglan, stood in front of Chu Xuan's house, and asked to see Chu Xuan.

Seeing this person, Chu Xuan and Lu Yanluo were a little surprised: "Aleshilan? Are you healed?"

Alesilan smiled leisurely, bowed and said: "Thank you both, my injury is now healed."

She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Lu Yanluo stared at Alesilan and felt that this man’s temperament suddenly changed.

He became calm and steady, knowing how to advance and retreat properly, which was very different from the noisy Alesilan.

"You..." Lu Yanluo didn't know how to describe it, but her intuition told her that except for the face, everything else about this person was not the Aleshilan she knew.

Alesilan seemed to see what Lu Yanluo was thinking. She smiled faintly and in front of the two of them, she raised her hand and touched the side of her face. She tore it hard and a piece of skin was torn off, revealing her true face.

"I am Li Ruo, the third prince of Fengxi Kingdom. I greet His Royal Highness the Night King and the Princess."
