Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne
Chapter 251: At Your Dispatch
"Chun Ning, come out to this princess!"
The angry Princess Changping came galloping on horseback, holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji.
He arrived at the gate of the palace without dismounting and roared towards the people inside.
The huge noise frightened the palace guards so much that their faces changed drastically. They pointed their weapons at Princess Changping, fearing that she would suddenly attack them.
"Princess Changping, the prince is not at home." The guard at the door said cautiously.
"Not at home?"
Princess Changping's face darkened: "Humph, I think he doesn't dare to see me. Since he won't come out, I will break in!"
Just now, she was surrounded by so many imperial guards at the posthouse, so she was certainly no match for them.
But this is just the Prince Chu's Palace, and she really doesn't take these guards seriously.
He swung the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand and was ready to take action.
But at this moment, a calm voice came from behind: "What made Princess Changping so angry that she even wanted to break into my palace?"
Hearing Chu Ning's voice, Princess Changping turned around with a gloomy face.
She held the Fang Tian Hua Ji horizontally, with the tip of the halberd pointed at Chu Ning, and said coldly: "Chu Ning, you immediately withdraw the imperial guards from the post station, and this princess can pretend that nothing happened.
Otherwise, today I will let you taste the power of my Fang Tian Hua Ji!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yu, who was beside Chu Ning, changed his expression. He immediately rode his horse to Chu Ning and said in a cold voice:
"If you want to touch the prince, ask Zhao about the gun first!"
Princess Changping's eyes turned fierce and she was about to take action.
Chu Ning laughed at this moment: "Princess Changping, why is she so anxious? Did you send someone to kill Princess Gaoping?"
Princess Changping was furious when she heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
If Chu Ning was allowed to talk nonsense, once the matter reached the ears of the Queen of Zhou, it would definitely lead to a conflict between Qin and Zhou.
Although the Qin Dynasty is not afraid of the Zhou Dynasty, it is better to have less trouble than more.
She didn't want the Great Zhou and the Great Qin to go to war just because of Chu Ning's words!
"nonsense?"
Chu Ning sneered: "I sent soldiers to protect you because I am worried that the murderer's next target will be you. Why is Princess Changping making a fuss?
Since the murderer dared to kill Princess Gaoping, he will definitely dare to kill you. I guess his purpose is to stir up disputes between our Great Chu and other dynasties.
But just killing Princess Gaoping is obviously not enough, maybe they will do something else."
These words calmed down Princess Changping, who was originally furious.
She has a bad temper and will get violent if she disagrees with something, but she is not stupid.
Princess Gaoping was the most beloved daughter of the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If the other party dared to attack her, they would naturally dare to attack her and other envoys as well.
Thinking of this, Princess Changping's expression eased a lot, and she asked in a deep voice: "Are you going to keep protecting me like this?"
"Half a month!"
Chu Ning said calmly: "If I still can't find the murderer in half a month, the Great Zhou Dynasty will definitely send troops, and then I will let you leave."
These words dispelled most of Princess Changping's remaining anger.
If it only takes half a month, she can still wait.
What's more, what Chu Ning said does make sense. If the other party dares to attack Princess Gaoping, he will naturally dare to attack himself as well!
Thinking of this, Princess Changping narrowed her eyes and a strange look flashed across her eyes: "You have been so sure for half a month, could it be that you already have a clue?"
Chu Ning grinned: "I do have clues, but this is a serious matter, so I can't tell you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cough was heard behind him.
Everyone turned around and saw Baili Xing being helped down from a sedan chair.
"Ahem~ I wonder if His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu can tell me the clues?"
Chu Ning looked at the old man in front of him with some surprise: "Prime Minister Baili, is this the reason for this?"
Baili Xing's cloudy eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he nodded and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu has restricted us from returning to the country, and now the best way is to find the murderer.
On the one hand, it can ensure our own safety, and on the other hand, the murderer can be found as soon as possible, and we can return home as soon as possible.
Since the murderer dared to kill Princess Gaoping, he also has the courage to attack us. If Your Highness the Prince of Chu needs help, you can dispatch the people around me."
As expected of a veteran in officialdom, he can see the problem to the point.
Compared with Princess Changping's impulsiveness, Baili Xing not only saw the essence of the problem, but was even willing to help Chu Ning solve the matter.
These words left Princess Changping silent.
It was not until this moment that she realized how huge the gap was between her and these experienced guys.
However, she had to admit that Baili Xing's idea was indeed good.
"Prime Minister Baili is absolutely right. This princess is also willing to hand over my men to the King of Chu to investigate this matter as soon as possible!"
Princess Changping thought about it and felt that she should express her opinion.
Chu Ning's eyes lit up: "If that's the case, thank you both very much!"
With the help of these two people, there are 400 more people under my command, enough to do a lot of things.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves could be heard from the distant street, followed by a hearty laugh: "In this case, the two hundred men under my command will also be under the command of His Royal Highness the King of Chu!"
Then, a proud voice came: "The King of Chu is really good at this. He has restricted us and now wants to deploy our people!"
The Minister of Works of Dayan and the Champion of Han, Huo Quji, rode up at the same time.
Chu Ning laughed and bowed to the two of them: "Please don't mind, I had no choice but to do this."
Huo Quji glanced at Chu Ning and said, "I have never been treated like this before. If it were before, I would have had a good fight with the King of Chu!
However, this matter concerns the death of Princess Gaoping and even the relationship between several dynasties. I am too lazy to argue with you, but my people only obey me, and I am afraid that the King of Chu cannot dispatch them. "
Chu Ning knew that this man had always been arrogant, and so were the soldiers he led.
Anyway, we already have enough manpower, so two hundred less won't matter.
"I understand what Marquis Guanjun means. I will handle this matter myself!" Chu Ning was not surprised by Huo Quji's reaction.
But just as he finished speaking, a mocking voice came from the street: "My troops only obey my orders, I'm afraid they can't be handed over to you, King Chu, to command!"
When everyone turned around, they saw that the person coming was Zhao Wuji, the third prince of the Great Zhao.
Chu Ning chuckled: "I just destroyed 200,000 Zhao troops. They are now eager to peel off my skin. How can they still obey me?"
Zhao Wuji glanced at Chu Ning and said, "It's OK as long as the King of Chu knows himself!"
As the two were talking, a long sigh was heard: "I wonder how long His Royal Highness the King of Chu intends to let us stay here?"
Yuan Tian, the imperial teacher of the Tang Dynasty, also came.
Chu Ning said calmly: "If I cannot find the murderer within half a month, you can leave on your own!"
"Okay, I'll wait for you for half a month!"
Yuan Tian said in a deep voice: "The two hundred soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will be under the command of His Royal Highness the King of Chu during this period of time!"
Chu Ning nodded slightly: "In this case, please go back. If there is any need, I will send someone to notify you.
However, please be prepared and be careful during this period!"
At this point, four of the seven envoys expressed their willingness to hand over the troops to Chu Ning for command.
Why are the remaining Huo Quji, Zhao Wuji and Yang Xingye who did not come unwilling to express their opinions?
Could the murderer be one of these three people?
