"What? The Imperial Guards are coming to kill us?"

King Anding was shocked when he heard this, and he forced Chu Ning back with a punch. He turned around and stared at the soldier, roaring:

"Tell me clearly why the imperial guards came to attack us. How many of them are there?"

The Youzhou soldier was panicked and quickly replied: "The Imperial Guards are a huge mass, and I have no idea how many there are. I also don't know why they are coming to attack us."

Prince Anding was shocked and muttered to himself, "How could this happen? Why did it happen? Why did the Imperial Guards intervene?"

He planned carefully for today's plan, waiting for the time when Chu Ning had no soldiers around him to take action.

As for the Imperial Guards, he had thought about it, but considering that the emperor was angry because Chu Ning disobeyed the imperial edict, he felt that the emperor would not send the Imperial Guards to assist Chu Ning.

But now, things went against our wishes and the imperial guards arrived.

His plan failed!

The unwilling King Anding turned around and stared at Chu Ning, asking with a look of reluctance: "How did you mobilize the imperial guards?"

Chu Ning was not in a hurry to act, and said calmly: "Your plan is indeed flawless, except for the Imperial Guards."

"But unfortunately, because of this, you will lose everything."

"In fact, your plan is very simple. You want to use my father's dissatisfaction with me to make him stand aside and get rid of me, right?"

King Anding had a gloomy face but did not deny it.

Chu Ning chuckled: "But if you are a greater threat than me, and even threaten the throne, do you think father will stand by and watch?"

King Anding looked puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Seeing that this person still didn't understand, Chu Ning could only tell the whole story: "I only need to prove that your ambition is beyond the control of the emperor, and the emperor will mobilize the imperial guards to suppress you!"

"And to achieve this, you have to let your Youzhou troops take full control of Kyoto City and attack me at the same time."

"At this moment, if someone whispered to the emperor that you wanted to usurp the throne, do you think he would still stand by and watch?"

While the two were talking, Emperor Chu in the palace stood outside the hall, looking out of the palace.

The King of Chu put his hands behind his back, with a serious look on his face, and asked the person behind him: "Tell me, why is Prince Anding so ambitious?"

The Grand Tutor behind him sighed: "Your Majesty, after all, the capital city is empty, with only 20,000 imperial guards, and he has 30,000 soldiers. If he kills the crown prince today, he can kill the other princes!"

"By then, he will force Your Majesty to abdicate on the grounds that Your Majesty has no heir. I'm afraid no one will object."

The emperor fell silent upon hearing this.

Although he really wanted to see Chu Ning and King Anding both suffer losses and weaken the strength of both sides.

However, Chu Ning now only has a thousand white horse cavalrymen with him, and he is no match for King Anding.

If Chu Ning was really killed, and King Anding killed other princes and forced him to abdicate on the grounds that he had no heir, he would really not be able to cope with it.

As for the ministers in the court, due to the power of Prince Anding, no one dared to stand up and oppose.

Therefore, he must take action in this matter.

If Chu Ning had an army of 10,000 or 20,000 in Kyoto City, he would definitely cause a fight between Chu Ning and King Anding.

But the bad thing is that Chu Ning only has a thousand people around him and is no match for King Anding!

He didn't want King Anding to get rid of Chu Ning and then get rid of him!

No matter what, Chu Ning is still his son. Even if he disobeys orders, it is their family's business.

Even if Chu Ning forced him to abdicate, he would be treated well.

But King Anding is different, he is an outsider after all.

If the situation in Kyoto City was controlled by Prince Anding, he would definitely be killed by Prince Anding after being forced to abdicate.

After all, no one will leave harm behind!

So, he finally chose to rescue her!

No matter how unwilling he was, he would not allow the throne to fall into the hands of others.

Thinking of this, the King of Chu narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed across them: "Prince Anding has been guarding the border for many years, and has developed an arrogant character!"

"Humph, he actually dared to mobilize troops in Kyoto City. How can I tolerate him?"

"I have already ordered the imperial guards to kill him on the spot. There is no need to report it separately."

After saying this, the emperor turned around and returned to the palace.

He knew that he had lost to Chu Ning again.

He originally wanted to use Prince Anding to teach Chu Ning a lesson, or even deprive Chu Ning of his position as crown prince, so that he could regain power.

But he underestimated King Anding's ambition, causing the situation to get out of control.

And Chu Ning bet that he would not let the throne fall into the hands of others!

In the end, he couldn't help himself and asked the imperial guards for help.

He knew that all this was Chu Ning's plan.

Chu Ning was just gambling. He would definitely send the imperial guards to help before he dared to go to the Prince of Qin's Mansion after Chu Xiao was assassinated!

Chu Ning, I won the bet.

And he lost to Chu Ning again.

Although he was unwilling to accept the defeat, he accepted it with a sincere heart.

Because he was fighting for the throne and the State of Chu, not for himself!

Although he lost in this matter, he did not lose in the interests of his country and family!

Prince Anding in the Prince Qin's Mansion also reacted at this moment.

"Master, it's Master!"

Prince Anding stared at Chu Ning and said harshly, "Have you asked the tutor to persuade His Majesty a long time ago?"

Chu Ning still looked calm and composed: "Yes, you thought today was the best time to kill me, but you didn't know that this was also a trap I set."

"Taifu asked the old King Qin to mediate, which was to give you an opportunity to take action against me. Otherwise, how would you dare to take action when I am in the East Palace?"

"Only when the emperor sees your ambition and knows your purpose, will he send the imperial guards to help you."

"Of course, I also used some tricks to deliberately spread the news that you had besieged me, so that your soldiers outside the city could rush into the city and occupy the city wall."

"When the emperor learns of this, he will definitely think that you want to seize the throne after killing me, so we will have to send out the imperial guards to deal with you."

"Although your Youzhou troops are good, they have no chance of winning against the Imperial Guards!"

This time, he not only had to deal with King Anding, but also had to deal with the 30,000 Youzhou soldiers under King Anding's command.

Allowing the Youzhou troops to enter the city was naturally to lure the emperor into taking action and let the imperial guards deal with these people.

But King Anding sneered: "The soldiers under my command are experienced warriors. Although the imperial guards are excellent in martial arts, they have no one to lead them. They can't defeat my troops!"

"is it?"

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and a smile appeared on his face: "I told you at the beginning that you missed a general!"

Seeing that Prince Anding still looked doubtful, Chu Ning shook his head and said, "Let me remind you that this person is from the Eastern Palace."

King Anding suddenly opened his eyes, and the puzzled look in his eyes suddenly turned into horror. He slowly uttered three words:

"Feng! Mu! Lan!"

"The answer is correct, but unfortunately there is no prize."

Chu Ning chuckled: "As a descendant of a military family, she has been on the battlefield many times and even participated in the war to destroy the State of Zhao."

"With her in command of the Imperial Guards, do you think your Youzhou troops can stop them?"

"Now, you have two paths."

"First, if you resist to the end, you will die."

"Second, lay down your weapons and surrender. For the sake of your royal family, I will leave your body intact!"

Just now, King Anding wanted to leave his body intact.

Now, it’s his turn to leave King Anding’s body intact!
