At the beginning, I became a county magistrate with greed of 500 million. The empress asked me to be

"Prince Cheng is here. It's time to watch something interesting!"

"Who do you think will have the upper hand this time?"

"Needless to say, it must be Master Xia Yunxia!"

"I don't think so. Prince Cheng has been a prince for decades, and he controls half of the Shenji Battalion. He may not be afraid of Xia Yun."

As the autumn wind blew, the temperature outside the Fenglai Inn rose sharply, and a lot of whispers were heard from the mouths of the onlookers.

Almost everyone fixed their curious eyes on the entrance of Fenglai Inn, looking forward to Xia Yun's appearance.

After Prince Cheng finished speaking, dozens of breaths passed.

Sure enough, a group of figures walked out of the gate of Fenglai Inn.

And the leader was none other than the Imperial Court's Northern Expedition Marshal and Governor-General of Jiangnan, Xia Yun!

"Greetings, old prince. Xia is honored."

When Xia Yun and his group walked out of the inn, Xia Yun spoke first, with a smile as warm as spring breeze on his face.

"Xia Yun, stop pretending to be stupid here!"

Unexpectedly, Prince Cheng had no intention of giving Xia Yun any face, and immediately uttered an angry rebuke.

"This is just the first time that Xia and the prince have met. Old prince, why is this happening?"

Xia Yun still had a smile on his face, but his words were full of provocation.

After all, no one present is a fool.

It was a fact known to everyone that Xia Yun had detained the prince of Prince Cheng at Fenglai Inn.

"Xia Yun, don't think that just because you are the damn governor of Jiangnan, you can be on equal footing with me. Release my son immediately!"

"If not, I will make you regret it!"

Prince Cheng was furious and didn't care about Xia Yun's identity at all.

His greatest reliance at this moment is the two thousand personal guards behind him!

In his opinion, no matter how great Xia Yun's abilities were, he would never be able to make even the slightest wave in the face of the absolute gap in strength.

"Oh? Xia has never regretted anything in his life? I wonder how the old prince plans to make Xia regret it?"

The smile on Xia Yun's face became even colder, and the provocation in his words was finally revealed.

"Xia Yun, I am warning you for the last time. Xiao Yuanhai is my prince. If anything goes wrong today, you will all be buried with me!"

Prince Cheng became furious and raised his right hand while speaking. The two thousand personal guards behind him immediately drew their weapons, and the sound of swords and knives clashing rang out one after another.

However, just as Prince Cheng finished speaking, Chong Heihu walked out of the gate of Fenglai Inn.

"The prince of Prince Cheng's mansion? Is it this guy?"

Everyone present could see that Chong Heihu was carrying a bloody figure in his hand as if he was carrying a chicken when he came out of the inn door.

Xiao Yuanhai, who originally only had a broken leg, looked extremely miserable at this moment.

Obviously, Xiao Yuanhai had suffered a lot at the hands of Chong Heihu during this period of time.

"Father! Save me!"

Xiao Yuanhai, with disheveled hair and face covered in blood and dirt, saw Prince Cheng in the crowd, and then uttered a shrill cry for help.

Such a scene shocked the crowd watching around.

Before they were evacuated downstairs, although Xiao Yuanhai had a broken leg, he looked fine overall.

Unexpectedly, after just a short while, Xiao Yuanhai was beaten into a state where he was neither human nor ghost.

"Xia Yun! You're looking for death!"

Seeing the miserable state of his son, Prince Cheng let out an uncontrollable roar of rage.

The anger in his heart reached its peak at this moment.

"You damned old bastard, if you dare disrespect my master again, I will skin you alive!"

Chong Heihu responded viciously and stepped on Xiao Yuanhai's arm again.

Xiao Yuanhai, who was already covered in blood, let out a painful wail.

This scene made many people around look at each other in bewilderment.

For a moment, I couldn't tell who was the good guy and who was the villain.

You have to know that at the beginning of the matter, the prince of Prince Cheng's mansion failed to bid for the gem, so he wanted to use his power to overpower others, and even threatened to kill Xia Yun and others.

But at this moment.

Xiao Yuanhai seemed to have become an innocent victim.

"Capture them all for me!"

Hearing his son's painful cries, Prince Cheng could no longer suppress his inner anger and immediately gave the order to attack.

"Old Lord, why do you have to do this?"

Xia Yun shrugged helplessly, as if everything at the scene had nothing to do with him.

Immediately afterwards, the two thousand personal guards brought by Prince Cheng immediately surrounded the Fenglai Inn.

Among them, hundreds of soldiers, led by a general, headed straight for Xia Yun and others.

At this critical moment, the hearts of all the onlookers were in their throats.

At the same time, there was a look of confusion on their faces.

Things have come to this.

Facing the personal soldiers of Prince Cheng's mansion who were about to take action, Xia Yun and his companions not only did not show the slightest worry on their faces, but instead looked calm and composed.

However, the doubts in their hearts were quickly resolved as the next scene appeared.

"Pass the order from the Governor of Jiangnan! Immediately seal off this place! No one is allowed to leave!"

"Send the imperial court's order to the Marshal of the Northern Expedition. Everyone must lay down their weapons immediately. Anyone who violates this order will be treated as a traitor and killed on the spot!"

"Send an order to the Minister of War, everyone stay where you are and do not act rashly!"

"Pass on the Ninth Prince's order. All irrelevant personnel must disperse immediately. All soldiers acting illegally must lay down their weapons and surrender immediately!"

One after another, loud voices came from all directions of Fenglai Inn.

Everyone present was shocked and looked around.

But we saw four groups of cavalry coming from the four directions of Fenglai Inn, each with at least several thousand men!

After just a few breaths, the four groups of troops, totaling more than 10,000 people, once again surrounded the Fenglai Inn like an iron barrel!

In a flash, the offensive and defensive situation on the scene changed!

The two thousand personal guards brought by Prince Cheng did not need to say anything when faced with such a huge formation all around them. They simply laid down their weapons.

The hundreds of soldiers approaching Xia Yun and his group put down their weapons and were so panicked that they knelt on the ground.

Obviously, with such a huge gap in military strength between the two sides, no one wants to lose their life in vain.

Prince Cheng, who had been extremely furious just now, was stunned by the sudden situation.

Xia Yun was obviously prepared.

The reason why I waited for him here was to lure him in! This was a trap!

A huge conspiracy that united the Ministry of War and the Ninth Prince Xiao Yan!

At this moment, Prince Cheng finally reacted!

It’s a pity that everything is too late!
