"What, Chu Ning left?"

Daqin Posthouse, inside the backyard house.

When Princess Changping woke up, she wanted to ask Chu Ning, but the soldier told her that Chu Ning had already left Chang'an City.

Upon hearing this, Princess Changping got up from the bed regardless of her own injuries.

But the injuries on her body made her groan, and a look of pain appeared on her face.

"Your Highness, the King of Chu has already left. You can't catch up with him even if you want to. You should heal your injuries first and don't let them get worse."

"No, why is Chu Ning in such a hurry to leave!"

Princess Changping lay back on the bed, a puzzled look on her face: "He left without even finding the murderer. This is not his character."

Princess Changping narrowed her eyes, turned to look at the guards beside her, and asked in a cold voice: "Tell me what happened during the time I was unconscious."

The personal guards did not dare to delay and immediately told Jia Yu and Chu Ning about their meeting.

When Princess Changping heard Jia Yu's name, she reacted immediately.

How could she not have heard of the name of the poisonous scholar of Wei State?

"It's him!"

Princess Changping's face darkened: "This damn guy, the attack on us last night must have been planned by him!"

"But what did you say just now? Jia Yu disappeared after meeting Chu Ning?"

"Indeed."

Princess Changping raised her eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashing across her face.

Could it be that Chu Ning killed Jia Yu, so he couldn't wait to leave Chang'an City?

But if that were the case, would the Emperor of Han let Chu Ning leave so easily?

What a guy Chu Ning is. He didn’t even send anyone to inform us before leaving.

Thinking of this, Princess Changping showed a hint of dissatisfaction on her face.

At this moment, a soldier came to report: "Your Highness, someone outside brought a letter, saying that it was from His Highness the Prince of Chu."

As he spoke, a letter was handed over.

Princess Changping reached out and took the letter, opened it, and the unhappy expression on her face immediately turned into a smile.

"He still has a conscience!"

Princess Changping snorted: "Pass the order down, everyone pack up and return to the court tomorrow!"

"Also, send someone to inform the Emperor of the Han Dynasty that I am injured and should not stay here any longer. I need to return to the court tomorrow!"

At the command, the Qin soldiers began to move.

At the same time, Di Ying in the Da Zhou Posthouse and Ji Yinghao in the Da Jin Posthouse also received letters from Chu Ning.

After reading it, the two of them, like Princess Changping, sent someone to the palace to convey the message.

Half an hour later, inside the Weiyang Palace.

Upon receiving the order, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, Dongfang Su, came to the emperor for an audience immediately.

"See Your Majesty!"

"No need to be polite!"

Liu Che's face was gloomy: "Just now Princess Changping, Ji Yinghao and Di Ying all sent people to inform them that they are leaving!"

"It would be fine if it was any other time, but now Chu Ning has just left and these three are in a hurry to go back. What does the Prime Minister think about this?"

Dongfang Su frowned, revealing a hint of surprise: "Your Majesty, the three of them left at the same time, did they make an appointment in advance?"

Liu Che shook his head: "The relationship between these three people is average, it is impossible for them to make an appointment in advance. I got the news that Chu Ning arranged someone to pass the news to them."

Dongfang Su looked solemn at these words. "If that's the case, then this must be the intention of the King of Chu. He wants these three people to leave at this moment. Could it be that he wants to cover his departure?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Che's face immediately became a little ugly.

"It seems that this kid is still on guard against me!"

Liu Che's eyes were like an eagle's as he stared outside the palace, Chu Ning's smiling face appeared in his mind.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that Chu Ning must be laughing at him somewhere.

Chu Ning left suddenly this time, he must have killed Jia Yu!

That guy was worried about being captured by him, so he deliberately looked for an opportunity to leave. But he was also worried that he would send people to chase him, so he asked Princess Changping and the other two to leave together.

As a result, the envoys from the four dynasties all left. If the Han Dynasty attacked Chu Ning alone at this moment, it would be deliberately making things difficult for the Chu State.

If Chu Ning left alone and the big man took action, others would naturally think that Chu Ning was guilty.

Liu Che became more and more angry as he thought about it. He could not help but clench his hands and shouted to the outside of the palace: "Come here, immediately send a message to all the states and counties to intercept the Chu convoy!"

Liu Che was angry.

He was unwilling to be fooled by Chu Ning, so he decided to catch Chu Ning back!

But Dongfang Su's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he quickly shouted outside: "Wait!"

"His Majesty!"

He turned around and knelt on the ground, saying in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you must not do this!"

Liu Che's eyes widened: "Why?"

Dongfang Su smiled bitterly: "To stop Chu Ning from returning to the court at this moment is to go against the Great Chu. Now that the Great Chu has just destroyed the State of Zhao, the entire army is in high spirits and is eager for a war."

"The Bingzhou troops are supported by Chu Ning alone. Once we take action against Chu Ning, the 100,000-strong Bingzhou army will attack our dynasty in an instant."

"In the past, our dynasty would not be afraid of a mere 100,000 troops, but now your majesty has dispatched Marquis Guanjun to lead 200,000 troops to the border, which has caused our dynasty to divert troops from other places."

Having said this, Dongfang Su stopped.

Some things should be said in moderation.

Although Liu Che was unhappy and angry, he still had his reason.

At this moment, the main force of the Han Dynasty went to the border with the State of Wei. Although there were troops in other places, they were all county soldiers and their combat effectiveness was not strong.

If Chu Ning's Bingzhou troops came at this moment, no one would be able to stop such a powerful army!

"It's not completely unreasonable!"

Liu Che snorted coldly: "But can I just watch Chu Ning leave and do nothing?"

The great Emperor of the Han Dynasty was actually fooled by a prince of another country. How could he save his face if this got out?

Dongfang Su knew Liu Che too well.

The reason I called him here today is to use his mouth to do something.

With a long sigh, Dongfang Su could only continue speaking according to Liu Che's meaning.

"Your Majesty, this matter does not involve taking action against the King of Chu, but it can put pressure on him and the State of Chu from the side!"

Liu Che's eyes lit up: "Prime Minister, tell me in detail!"

Dongfang Su put on a calm expression and said, "First, send someone to inform the Fourth Prince of Chu about Jia Yu's disappearance and ask him to help investigate."

"Given the grudge between the Fourth Prince of Chu and Chu Ning, he will definitely take action. Even if he can't do anything to Chu Ning, he will still cause him some trouble."

"Secondly, Great Yan's Prime Minister Ren Wenxuan has been asking our dynasty to give them food. Originally, our dynasty could ignore this matter, but now we can give them some."

"Yan has been fighting with Chu. If Yan gets food support, they can cause considerable damage to Chu."

After these two plans came out, Liu Che finally smiled.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

Liu Che sneered: "Chu Ning has played a trick on me, I will not let him off easily. Even if he returns to Chu, I will let him know the consequences of offending me."

"Prime Minister, I leave this matter to you!"

"Wei Chen accepts the order!"
