Chu Ji shrugged, "I just hope you can leave safely."

"We're leaving, what about you?!" Ren Ruyi stared at her.

Chu Ji: "After all, I have the title of King Li of Wu State. Even if Emperor An is angry, he will not attack me openly." On the contrary, they are different.

As the saying goes, no matter how good your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife. They are all masters in various fields, but they cannot fight against an entire country or an entire army.

Ren Ruyi didn't want to leave, but Chu Ji asked her to think about Ning Yuanzhou, and told Ning Yuanzhou that Wu Di would be able to reunite with Yang Ying soon.

Ning Yuanzhou heard this and tried to persuade Ren Ruyi. Ren Ruyi looked at Chu Ji and said, "Why do you want me to leave?!"

Chu Ji did not hide it, "I will use Ren Xin's name to act. Although you have changed your appearance, there will definitely be people who recognize you, and then you will be in danger."

Chu Ji glanced at Ning Yuanzhou and continued to say to Ren Ruyi: "Although this man has a black heart, he sometimes worries too much. I am afraid that after returning to Wu Country, he will be restricted and will need your help in many things."

Ning Yuanzhou wanted to refute, but Chu Ji glared at him back.

Ning Yuanzhou acted aggrieved and nodded coquettishly to Ren Ruyi, indicating that he agreed with what Chu Ji said.

Ren Ruyi followed Ning Yuanzhou away. Before leaving, Ning Yuanzhou came to find Chu Ji and left him the token of Liudaotang. Before leaving, Ning Yuanzhou turned back and said to Chu Ji: "If possible, please save the lives of those brothers."

Chu Ji did not agree, and Ning Yuanzhou did not hesitate and left with his men.

And just as they were leaving, Chu Ji's people also started their plan.

Chu Ji's people intercepted the eldest prince on his way to central Sha and stabbed the prince of Duke Wang. They deliberately misled the other party that they were assassins sent by the second prince. They then took the eldest prince to the tomb of Queen Zhaojie and killed him to avenge the queen.

After Prince Wang woke up, he found the tiger-head token left by Ruyi from Shadongbu. He was sure that it was Shadongbu who killed the eldest prince.

Emperor An was very angry after this incident and asked Deng Hui to investigate the matter immediately.

Emperor An was even more angry with Wu State because of this matter, and asked Chu Ji to prepare 30,000 taels of gold, otherwise he would not let Emperor Wu leave.

Deng Hui guessed that Ren Xin was the real murderer from the deaths of the eldest prince, Duke Wang, and Tao Wei, because no one except Ren Xin remembered the late queen who had been dead for five years. In order to vent his anger, Emperor An ordered two of the Red Guards, the Red Guards, and the Purple Guards, and fourteen guards to hang themselves outside the south gate of the palace, arguing that the Red Guards were not serving the emperor well.

Although Deng Hui couldn't bear to execute his subordinates, he had to obey Emperor An's order.

Deng Hui planned to hang himself, but Li Xiangyi, hiding his identity, told him that when hanging someone, he should press the bowstring one finger under the cartilage, and 70% of the people might survive. Deng Hui decided to personally execute the execution, hoping to secretly save the lives of these people.

As for the so-called increased ransom, Chu Ji didn't even want to give the original amount, so naturally he had no plans to continue paying.

Chu Ji directly sent a signal and ordered people to attack the tower and rescue Emperor Chu Wu.

Because of the death of the eldest prince, the guards of Yong'an Tower became stricter. Chu Ji was allowed to enter the tower to visit Emperor Wu once, but the real Emperor Wu had already been sent away by Chu Ji, so this time Chu Ji just sat quietly inside for a while before getting up and leaving.

When Chu Ji came back, he received the news sent by Ning Yuanzhou through Tianji Pavilion.
