"Let go of the prince!"
In the military camp, Zhou Su looked at Shen Yanyu, Leng Qingqiu, and Ye Jinghong with a cold face.
I never thought that these three people were so bold that they dared to kidnap the prince in this camp of 70,000 people.
Yet they succeeded.
He also knew some of Xiao Cheng's arrangements. He had invited top-notch masters to take charge. Originally everything was under the control of the prince, but who knew that another top-notch master would emerge from the other side.
The key point is that this person is too cunning. Unlike the two female assassins who broke into the military camp directly, he disguised himself as a soldier and approached Xiao Cheng effortlessly.
If they force their way in, Zhou Su can be sure that it will be difficult for the other party to get to Xiao Cheng. After all, their border troops are no pushovers.
Martial arts masters are very powerful, but they are no match for a large army.
Moreover, there are experts in the army, but they are not at the top level. However, with the coordination of military formations, they can also fight against top-notch experts.
At this moment, countless powerful bows and crossbows were aimed at the three people. Even if these three people had extraordinary lightness skills, they would still be shot into a hornet's nest. However, Zhou Su did not dare to give the order. The prince was captured, so he could only bluff.
Clank, clank, clank!
The sound of armor rubbing against each other was heard, and the border soldiers surrounded Shen Yanyu and the other two in three layers. It was very difficult to break out under such an encirclement.
"Shout to them to get out of the way!"
Ye Jinghong put the sword on Xiao Cheng's neck.
Xiao Cheng took a deep breath, looked at Ye Jinghong, and asked coldly: "Who are you?"
If this person had not appeared tonight, he would not have been captured and would not have failed. He couldn't understand how a top-notch master could suddenly appear from Pei Yun's side.
"Ye Jinghong!"
These three short words made Xiao Cheng stunned, and then he was filled with resentment.
It turned out to be the owner of Cangjian Villa!
But why is this? Pei Yun took in Lu Jingxuan, shouldn't you arrest Lu Jingxuan? This way you will have a grudge against Pei Yun.
Why did you come to arrest me?
Xiao Cheng couldn't understand it. Everything was in his plan. He had been waiting for several months tonight's situation, which was enough to eliminate the masters around Pei Yun. But he never expected that Ye Jinghong would also help Pei Yun.
Why on earth is this happening?
It’s fine for Shen Yanyu to help Pei Yun, after all, Pei Yun can save her brother, but why do you want Cangjian Villa?
Is Pei Yun so charming? My personal charm is not stronger than Pei Yun?
Xiao Cheng was depressed and felt extremely regretful.
If he had known this earlier, he would not have told Cangjian Villa about Lu Jingxuan's stay with Pei Yun. He originally wanted to use Cangjian Villa to cause trouble for Pei Yun, but now he has shot himself in the foot.
Is it really God who wants to kill me?
Now that he has been captured, there are two possible outcomes. One is that he will be taken back by these three men and handed over to Pei Yun, and then Pei Yun will hand him over to the court to await punishment.
The second is to die here!
Xiao Cheng clenched his fists. Although this rebellion happened much faster than he expected, he was already prepared and everything was under his control.
For several months, he blocked the attacks from the imperial court and would soon be able to attack from both sides together with Northern Liang. He could already imagine the situation that would follow.
This was the closest he had ever been to the throne he desired.
Unfortunately, he had calculated everything, except that he had not expected that Cangjian Villa would help Pei Yun. He was still unwilling to give up, and asked: "Why? Don't you have a huge hatred with Lu Jingxuan? Now that Lu Jingxuan has surrendered to Pei Yun, you don't kill Lu Jingxuan, but help Pei Yun to deal with me, why?"
"Whatever conditions Pei Yun gives you, I can double them. As long as you help me ascend the throne, your Cangjian Villa will become the number one family in the world."
As long as Ye Jinghong lets him go and helps hold off Shen Yanyu and Leng Qingqiu for a moment, he will be able to escape into the army, and the situation will then still be under his control.
Ye Jinghong said calmly: "Don't waste your breath. You can't give me what Pei Yun gave me. Give up this idea and let them get out of the way. Otherwise..."
Ye Jinghong lowered his wrist, and the tip of the sword pressed a bloody mark on Xiao Cheng's neck: "Otherwise I don't mind sending the prince on his way now."
"Hahaha!"
Xiao Cheng suddenly burst into laughter, his voice carrying a hint of madness and determination, and then a ferocious look appeared on his face.
"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Since I have rebelled, I am ready to die. You want to threaten me with death? You are dreaming!"
Zhou Su's pupils suddenly shrank: "Prince! You..."
"No need to say more!" Xiao Cheng's eyes flashed with madness, "All soldiers, listen to my orders!"
His voice exploded like thunder: "Shoot your arrows immediately! Kill these three people! Don't worry about my life!"
"I would rather die here than suffer the humiliation of being tried by the imperial court!"
"Even if I die today—" Xiao Cheng stared at Ye Jinghong, a hideous smile on his face, "I will drag the three of you down with me!"
After hearing Xiao Cheng's words, the entire military camp fell into silence. All the soldiers looked at Xiao Cheng in shock. They could tell that the prince was not joking and really wanted to die together with these three people.
Shen Yanyu's expression under the mask changed suddenly. This madman Xiao Cheng really intended to disregard his own life or death.
"Shoot!"
Xiao Cheng shouted loudly, his voice hoarse.
He is the King of Bashu, a prince respected by all the people in Yizhou. He will not allow himself to fail, and he also knows what the emperor's attitude is towards rebellion.
Even if it is his own son, he will be executed. In this case, it is better to die with dignity now.
"Your Majesty!"
Zhou Su's pupils trembled violently. Are you serious?
"After I die, you will lead the border troops back and write to the court, saying that you were coerced. All the blame will be borne by me alone. You were all just following orders."
