12dz Chapter 781 Rebellion, the prince was captured!
Chapter 781 Rebellion, the prince was captured!
He Peng's stubborn defense made the prince decide to take a gamble!
Now, they have no way to retreat and can only rush into the palace and kill the fourth prince.
As long as the Fourth Prince is killed, the Imperial Guards and the City Defense Battalion will be leaderless and will inevitably obey the orders of the Crown Prince.
This is the best solution at the moment!
With fanaticism, the prince led his troops into the palace.
There was a sea of corpses before my eyes, the pungent smell of blood was nauseating, and the entire palace was like a purgatory filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
At the steps at the entrance of the living room, a group of palace guards were holding weapons and protecting the Fourth Prince Chu Ying behind them with nervous expressions.
Seeing the prince bringing people in, Chu Ying's face darkened and he said coldly: "Prince, you dare to lead troops to besiege the palace, are you planning a rebellion?"
"rebellion?"
The prince laughed wildly: "Old Four, it's not your turn to say this!"
"Today, all of you will die here!"
"Come here, kill him!"
After the prince finished speaking, he swung the sword in his hand and prepared to rush forward.
But Chu Ying said calmly: "Prince, have you never thought about why the right side guarded by Lord He was suddenly breached?"
The prince was stunned: "What do you mean by that?"
Chu Ying raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with a hint of amusement: "Don't worry, Prince, you will know what I mean immediately!"
He raised his eyebrows and looked at He Peng behind the prince, and chuckled, "Sir He, if we don't take action now, when will we take action?"
As soon as these words came out, the prince's face changed drastically. He was about to turn around and ask He Peng, but He Peng took the initiative and sneered:
"Someone, take the prince down!"
The soldiers who had followed He Peng in just now stepped forward and surrounded the prince with weapons in their hands.
"you……"
The prince was furious: "He! Peng! You traitor!"
He Peng sneered and stared at the prince: "You said I am a traitor? Humph, have you ever thought about why you didn't save my son's body in the first place?
If it weren’t for the Fourth Prince, my son’s body might still be hanging on the city wall. Where were you when I needed you the most?
Your incompetence made me realize that I cannot follow you, so I surrendered to the Fourth Prince!"
As soon as these words came out, the prince was so angry that he trembled all over: "I have worked hard to cultivate you for many years, and this is how you repay me?
It was Chu Ning who hung your son's body. Even if you want to hate someone, you should hate Chu Ning. Why do you have to involve me!
Besides, I have already sent people to fight for it, but it just didn't work. Why are you repaying kindness with hatred? "
The prince was extremely angry at this moment, his eyes were red, and he wished he could eat He Peng alive.
But facing the prince's questioning, He Peng was indifferent: "Over the years, I have done so much for you, don't you know, Prince?
I have long since repaid you for your kindness in cultivating me. Now I just want to kill Chu Ning and avenge my family!
You are too incompetent to avenge me, so I can only choose the Fourth Prince!"
This reason made the prince furious: "I will kill you, you dog slave!"
He raised the sword in his hand and slashed at He Peng fiercely.
But the soldiers at the side held down his hands and took the sharp blade from his hand.
"Pah~pah~pah~"
When the fourth prince Chu Ying saw this scene, he couldn't help but applaud, with a hint of amusement on his face:
"What a scene! The master and servant are very happy. It's so exciting! So exciting!"
As he spoke, the Fourth Prince walked forward, and the guards in front of him made way for him.
Walking slowly to the front of the Crown Prince, the Fourth Prince looked at the subdued Crown Prince and chuckled, “Brother Crown Prince, you must have never thought that the only person you trust is my man, right?
Now you have fallen into my hands, the winner will be the king, the loser will be the bandit, so make your people stop!"
If you lose, you should admit it!
Although Chu Ying wanted to kill the prince at this moment, there were soldiers from Sizhou outside and he was surrounded in the palace. If he killed the prince at this moment, there was no guarantee that the soldiers from Sizhou outside would not take risks.
After all, if he killed the prince and seized power, he would definitely not let go of the Sizhou troops.
As long as the soldiers in Sizhou are not fools, they will know this.
Therefore, if he killed the prince at this moment, the soldiers of Sizhou would definitely take advantage of the chaos to rush in and kill him here.
Therefore, although he wanted to kill the prince, he couldn't do it now.
Only after getting rid of the Sizhou troops outside can we take action against the prince!
But the prince was not a fool. He sneered and said, "Do you think I will do what you say?"
"Don't think you've won just by capturing me. There are still my people outside. As long as they hold back the Imperial Guards and the City Defense Battalion, they will come to rescue me!"
"If you know what's best for you, you'll let me go now. Otherwise, when my people get in, I won't let you go!"
Until now, the prince still believes that the advantage is on his side.
Even if his right wing was breached, even if He Peng rebelled, even if he himself was captured, he was still certain that the advantage was in his hands.
Of course, what he was most certain of was that Chu Ying would not dare to do anything to him.
He is the crown prince, the heir apparent, the next generation emperor chosen by the emperor, and the future of the State of Chu!
Who dares to kill him?
Chu Ying looked at the prince with a determined attitude and a ruthless look appeared on his face.
He has said all the nice things, but since the prince won't listen, don't blame him for being cruel and ruthless!
"Since you refuse to come down, I will take you to the gate of the mansion and let your people see what you look like now!"
Chu Ying sneered and waved his hand: "Take him to the gate of the palace."
After saying this, Chu Ying threw his hands and walked towards the gate of the palace.
He Peng stretched out his hand and signaled everyone to take the prince over!
"Let me go, quickly let me go, you bunch of dogs and slaves, how dare you treat me like this, I will definitely punish you and your entire clan!"
The furious prince struggled and roared.
But with so many soldiers escorting him, even if he struggled it was of no avail and he was soon escorted to the gate of the palace.
Outside the palace, the Sizhou soldiers were fighting off the oncoming soldiers from the city defense camp.
Chu Ying took a deep breath and said loudly: "The prince has been captured by me, if you don't want to die, put down your weapons!
I promise you that as long as you surrender, I will not pursue what happened today.
If anyone continues to resist to the end, I will not only kill you without mercy, but also exterminate your entire clan!
If you know what's good for you, put down your weapons now and stand to the right. I will give you a chance to mend your ways."
As soon as these words were spoken, the two sides who were fighting suddenly stopped and looked towards the entrance of the mansion.
When they saw the prince being captured, the soldiers of Sizhou were in an uproar.
"This...what's going on? Why did the prince fall into their hands?"
"What should we do? The prince has been captured. How can we fight?"
"Yes, now the city defense battalion is coming again, can we still stop them?"
"The prince has been captured, why are we still fighting?"
For a time, the morale of the Sizhou soldiers dropped sharply, and some even slowly put down their weapons.
When the prince saw this scene, instead of panicking, he laughed wildly:
“Hahahaha, Old Four, it’s still unclear who will win or lose today!”
"Do it!"
