If it were any other time, if he were to encircle and suppress Sheng Mingyu, it might waste even more manpower.
These confidants were really heartbroken, but they had no choice but to obey the order.
They all live with the prince, and if the prince does something wrong, they will not be able to survive.
Why not take a gamble with the prince, what if it really works?
The leader didn't expect Du Changming to have such an idea, but he didn't refute it.
"Really? But the enemy has too many soldiers. Even if we use all our manpower, the probability of success is less than one-third. Unless Your Highness finds a way to stop His Majesty's soldiers from moving, we will have a chance of success. Can Your Highness do that?"
He was originally a subordinate of Du Changming, and he just had to do his best to carry out the tasks ordered by the prince.
But he was also a general, and he knew how powerful these soldiers were. Some things could be done, but they had to be done based on the actual situation.
If he can't win, then he can't win. He can't force his men.
The confidant was also confused by the question. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had never told him about this matter, but he agreed directly.
If he said he had no way, I'm afraid the leader would not take action.
Even though he is a general under Du Changming, he still needs to survive.
"This... Your Highness the Crown Prince should have a solution. Just get ready down below and wait for our signal, then you can go straight ahead."
Du Changming felt much more relieved when he received the reply.
As long as the leader agrees, the matter will be half successful.
Just leave the rest to him.
Since he sits in this position, he must have some ability.
"It's simple. Just take my jade pendant with you. They'll know my jade pendant and won't dare to attack easily. You don't need to say anything. Just say that I will meet them in person after this matter is done."
…
Not long after, the leader of the Imperial Guards saw the jade pendant and was very surprised.
It's really lively today, all the big shots are here.
"Why is His Royal Highness here? It's extremely dangerous here. I urge you to take His Royal Highness away immediately. We are here at His Majesty's command. Even if His Royal Highness were to truly be standing here, we would be powerless to stop him."
He didn't listen to Du Changming.
Not to mention that he already admired Sheng Mingyu in his heart and wanted to learn more skills from him.
Even after coming out today and hearing what His Majesty said, he did not dare to blindly follow the instructions of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Everyone knows that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not as favored as Sheng Mingyu.
"Heh! Chief, don't forget that you used to frequent brothels in Kyoto. Do you know the rules for court officials? If you want to keep your position, you have no choice but to obey the Crown Prince."
As the crown prince, he naturally knows the secrets of the officials under him.
He knows a little bit about everyone's affairs, otherwise he would not be able to hold this position.
Today, he was not polite. If anyone dared to disobey, he would tell all the secrets directly.
At worst, he could just throw away all his energy. After all, he was in a high position and belonged to the royal family. No one could easily touch him.
The leader of the Royal Guards turned pale, but he had no choice but to agree.
He wants to keep this position, because the whole family is high and mighty because of him.
"You...Okay, but should I talk to the Crown Prince about this? His Majesty has already said that the Crown Prince must be protected. Otherwise, even without the threats from His Royal Highness, I will not be able to survive."
The confidant acted condescendingly and said, "Don't overthink anything that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hasn't told you to do. Just do whatever you're told to do."
Isn't the main target of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? If they tell the Crown Prince in advance, all their plans will be in vain.
What's the point of all this trouble?
Sheng Mingyu also has his trusted subordinates, all of whom are real warriors who have fought on the battlefield.
Especially Mo Qing, who is reliable and efficient. Since arriving at the Taoist temple, he has been hiding in a tree and observing the movements around him.
Ever since Du Changming appeared here, he has been under his nose.
So everything he did was always under his eyes.
Seeing that his master was in danger, Mo Qing quickly passed the news.
Wanting to attack their own master without even considering whether they have the strength to do so? How presumptuous!
Sheng Mingyu had a sneer on his face, and he said that today's matter would not be so easy.
From the moment he saw the prince's army coming, he knew there would be an accident.
Sheng Mingyu suddenly had the urge to play around, and he didn't know how the emperor would react if he reported everything that happened today to him.
"Interesting! Let's see how many people we have. Are their abilities comparable to the Crown Prince's? If they can, then we'll capture them all. If you want to touch this Crown Prince, you'll have to pay the price. And you'll also have to deal with the leader of the Imperial Guards."
He was really curious about how His Majesty would treat the prince.
A child who was raised with great effort ended up being disappointed in everything. I'm afraid that his position as the crown prince will be unstable.
Gu Yunni was not concentrating on the fight, but was also secretly observing Sheng Mingyu's movements.
Looking at his expression, she knew that Sheng Mingyu had another plan.
Although I didn't know what it was, I felt a lot more at ease.
In fact, her strength was about to run out. If she continued to fight with this old Taoist, she would die here today.
"National Master! Come on!" Gu Yunni suddenly spoke, catching the National Master off guard, and also catching the old Taoist priest next to him off guard.
Isn't this a two-person competition? Why did you suddenly find help?
How could I possibly beat these two people together?
"How can you be so unreasonable, Princess? Didn't we agree to compete with each other? How can we compete with you now? Do you want me to call all my disciples over? With your abilities, my disciples are just side dishes."
The old Taoist frowned and spoke with dissatisfaction.
He didn't think about dying here, he wanted to continue living.
"Why should I reason with someone like you? You've done so many bad things. I'm here to arrest you on His Majesty's orders. It doesn't matter what method I use, His Majesty won't blame me."
Gu Yunni had a playful look on her face. Who said that she had to fight him one on one?
The old Taoist stopped being polite and sneered, "Alright! Then don't blame me for being rude. Do you really think I don't have any helpers? Since you don't want the courtesy I gave you, then don't blame me for being rude! I originally wanted to keep you for a while, but now you can only blame your bad luck!"
With the prince here today, he feels at ease. If the prince needs help from him, he will not leave him alone.
Gu Yunni already hated the prince, and after this incident, her annoyance towards him reached a new level.
