Chapter 368 Hurry up, open the door!
Luo Yechen immediately started to speak sweet words.
"What can I do? I still don't know what the situation is."
"You damn slave, you never come to me when good things happen, but now that something weird has happened, you come to me? Do I deserve to help you clean up your mess?!"
"Aren't there Yulin Guards in the palace? Let Zhao Xian lead the Yulin Guards to fight Qiu Lei. As long as they win, Qiu Lei will retreat, right?!"
Eunuch Chang said helplessly: "There are 5,000 Red Sky Army outside, but we only have 2,000 Jade Lin Guards. The difference in numbers is too great. We can't do it."
Luo Yechen became even more furious when he heard this.
He jumped off the bed barefoot: "Why did you come to me when you knew you couldn't beat me? Do you think I could beat you?!"
Eunuch Chang: "I just want to ask you to help stabilize the situation. After all, you are the eldest prince. If you are in charge of the situation, we can feel more at ease and not lose our composure."
After hearing what he said, Luo Yechen felt a little better.
Eunuch Chang continued to flatter.
"Now that the prince is not in the palace, all of us have to rely on you. You are now the pillar of our hearts!"
Luo Yechen's waist unconsciously paused and he snorted with disdain.
"You usually don't take me seriously, but now you know how to count on me?"
Eunuch Chang smiled and said, "Look at what you said. We usually respect you very much. You are the eldest prince of the emperor. Even the crown prince has to respect you as the eldest brother. Your status is here. If anyone dares to disrespect you, isn't that courting death?!"
Luo Yechen likes this feeling of being praised by others.
Eunuch Chang said a lot of flattering words to him in one breath, praising him to the point of making him feel like he was on heaven's pedestal.
Luo Yechen just felt extremely comfortable all over.
Even if the third brother is the prince, so what?
At the critical moment, we still have to rely on him as the big brother to save the day!
Luo Yechen sat back on the bed, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then why are you still standing there like an idiot? Hurry up and ask someone to come in and help me change clothes and wash up!"
Eunuch Chang: "Okay!"
The palace maids and eunuchs came in one after another carrying hot water and clean clothes, and skillfully helped the eldest prince change clothes and wash.
Luo Yechen spread his arms, stood there, and let the palace maids put clothes on him one by one.
He still kept talking nonsense.
"The prince is blessed to have a big brother like me. If I hadn't been here to help him keep things under control, I'm afraid his lair would have been wiped out! Humph, when he comes back, he must thank me, otherwise I'll show you how I'll deal with him!"
Eunuch Chang pretended that he heard nothing.
After everything was packed up, Luo Yechen cheered himself up and strode out.
Eunuch Chang hurriedly followed and asked: "Where is the eldest prince going?"
Luo Yechen said as he walked: "Of course I have to go meet Qiu Lei!"
He is the eldest son of the emperor and has a very noble status. The second son of a mere royal palace cannot be his opponent at all.
As soon as he shows up, he will definitely scare the shit out of Qiu Lei.
When he thought of that scene, Luo Yechen felt very proud.
Since he left the palace, he has been suppressed by the crown prince, and he is inferior to the crown prince in every aspect. Now that he finally has a chance to show off, he must show off his power and let everyone know that he is not inferior to the crown prince at all!
Zhao Xian personally led his men to guard behind the palace gate. They blocked the gate tightly to prevent people outside from breaking in by force.
When they saw the eldest prince coming, they immediately saluted with their fists clasped.
"Greetings to the Great Prince!"
Luo Yechen raised his chin slightly, with an arrogant look on his face: "Open the door!"
Zhao Xian reminded: "There are people from the Chixiao Army outside. If we open the door, they will rush in and we won't be able to stop them."
Luo Yechen said disdainfully: "I am the eldest son of the emperor, how could I be afraid of him, the second son of the royal palace? Hurry up, open the door!"
Zhao Xian glanced at Eunuch Chang out of the corner of his eye.
Eunuch Chang shook his head at him, signaling him not to stop the eldest prince.
Eunuch Chang knew the eldest prince's temper very well. Whenever the eldest prince was in a good mood, he felt that he was invincible and dared to do anything. No one could stop him at this time.
What's more, now that things have come to this, the only option is for the eldest prince to come forward and negotiate with Qiu Lei.
No matter what the outcome is, at least it can delay it for a while.
Zhao Xian made a gesture.
The Yulin Guards immediately followed his instructions and slowly opened the door.
A large number of Chixiao soldiers were lined up neatly outside the door.
They were all dressed in military uniforms, with red scarves tied around their necks, and the emblem of the Chixiao Army embroidered on the scarves.
The person in the lead was Qiu Lei.
He was riding on a tall horse with a sword on his waist, looking very majestic.
He saw the eldest prince Luo Yechen coming out and asked in a deep voice, "Why is it you? Where is the prince?"
Luo Yechen stood on the steps and took a quick glance. He found that the number of Chixiao Army was more than he expected. He couldn't help but feel a little frightened, and the heroic spirit that had finally surged up in his heart was halved.
But others have already come this far, and it is impossible to retreat.
He had to maintain his dignity as the eldest prince.
Luo Yechen raised his chin higher and snorted, "You can't just see the prince whenever you want. Just tell me what you want to say!"
Qiu Lei sneered, "The person I want to see is the prince. What does it have to do with you? Do you still want to take the lead on behalf of the prince?"
"The Crown Prince is not in the palace right now, so I am the one in charge here. Of course I can take the lead."
Qiu Lei didn't believe it: "I came here to look for the prince, but he just happened to be away. How could it be such a coincidence? Is the prince hiding something and not daring to come out to see me?!"
Luo Yechen: "Be careful with your words, the prince is not someone you can casually discuss!"
Qiu Lei looked him up and down: "I really didn't realize that you would actually speak for the prince. Haven't you always been trying to fight for the position of prince? Are you giving in now and are you willing to be inferior to others?"
Luo Yechen: "This is our family affair. You, an outsider, don't need to interfere. If you have something to say, just say it. If not, get out of here!"
Qiu Lei's face darkened: "Who are you telling to get out? This is Chenliu County, the territory of our Chenliu Palace. What qualifications do you have to say such things to me?!"
Luo Yechen is a stubborn person.
He had originally been a little hesitant because the other party had more people and more strength, but now that he was provoked by the other party, he immediately threw that timidity out of his mind and fought back angrily.
"I am the eldest prince, my status is much higher than yours, you are just a country bumpkin, I am willing to call you the Second Young Master, that is to give you face, don't be shameless!"
