Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

The report from the soldiers of the city defense camp did not bring Liu Yunqing back to his senses, but the prince was the first to shout.

He stared at the soldier of the city defense camp and roared, "You must think that Lao Si lost, so you made up the false news that Chu Ning returned to the city!"

"Yes, that must be the case, hahahaha, that must be the case!"

The more he talked, the more he felt that this was the case. Suddenly, the prince laughed crazily: "Liu Yunqing, you want to deceive me, is it that easy?"

"You know that what I am most worried about right now is Chu Ning, but don't you know that he has gone to Zhao State to quell the rebellion?"

Liu Yunqing, who was in a daze, came back to his senses and looked at the prince who was laughing wildly, speechless.

He himself didn't even believe this news, so how could it be fake news that he sent someone to deliver?

However, it cannot be ruled out that the news was released deliberately by someone else.

To be cautious, Liu Yunqing frowned and looked at the soldier in the city defense camp, and asked, "Did you see clearly? Are you sure it's the King of Chu?"

The soldiers nodded repeatedly: "It is indeed His Royal Highness the King of Chu. Who in this capital city doesn't know His Royal Highness the King of Chu?

Moreover, the soldiers and horses brought back by His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu were all wearing heavy armor and flying the Bingzhou flag, so they should be Bingzhou soldiers and horses. "

When these words were spoken, the prince was stunned, Liu Yunqing was stunned, and even He Peng was dumbfounded at this moment.

If Chu Ning returned to the city alone, they would definitely not believe it.

But now Chu Ning has returned with the Bingzhou troops, they have no choice but to believe it!

It is easy to disguise as Chu Ning alone, but it is not easy to disguise as Bingzhou soldiers.

They were a group of battle-hardened soldiers, and no one could disguise the murderous aura on them.

Liu Yunqing's expression changed slightly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Do you know how many people there are?"

The soldier thought for a moment and answered cautiously, "It's so dark that I can't see clearly, but judging from the number of torches, there are at least 10,000 people, and they are still entering the city."

When the prince heard this, he could no longer hold back: "Didn't Chu Ning go to Zhao State? Why is he here?"

There was silence at the scene and no one could answer the question.

At the same time, in a restaurant watching the battle from a distance, the Grand Tutor and the Prime Minister also received the news.

The two spies were each telling them the news they had just received.

"what!"

"This is impossible!"

The two were shocked after hearing this, and then they looked at each other, realizing that the other had received the same news.

Yang Wende waved his hand to signal the spy to retreat, and said in a deep voice: "Master, what do you think about this matter?"

The Grand Tutor was puzzled: "Didn't the King of Chu go to Zhao State? Why is he in Kyoto at this moment? It's really unbelievable!"

Yang Wende smiled bitterly: "The Bingzhou troops have also arrived. It must be His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu who has returned to the capital. I didn't expect that the fight between the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince would eventually give His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu a chance!"

He looked towards the direction of the Fourth Prince's residence, with a hint of worry in his eyes: "I don't know what purpose His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu has in bringing back the Bingzhou troops."

It would be fine if Chu Ning came back by himself, but now Chu Ning came back with troops, which made them worry.

The situation in Kyoto City is already unstable at the moment. If Chu Ning interferes again, the situation will be difficult to control.

The Grand Tutor said sternly, "It seems we have no choice but to step in. If this continues, I'm afraid someone will die again."

Yang Wende nodded slightly: "The Crown Prince must not get into trouble, otherwise the other princes will definitely fight for the position of crown prince."

"Let's go over and take a look."

The two reached an agreement and immediately set off for the Fourth Prince's residence.

But at this moment, Chu Ning had already arrived outside the Fourth Prince's mansion with the White Horse Cavalry and Bingzhou soldiers.

Wherever they passed, no one dared to block their way, no matter whether it was the Sizhou troops, the city defense camp, or even the imperial guards.

In just a moment, Chu Ning rode his horse to the gate of the mansion.

Looking at the body of the fourth prince Chu Ying, Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and a cold look flashed across his face: "Who killed the fourth brother?"

Liu Yunqing's eyes turned and he pointed at He Peng: "Your Highness Prince Chu, this man attacked and killed the Fourth Prince from behind. You must avenge the Fourth Prince!"

He himself had no way to avenge the Fourth Prince, but he could use Chu Ning's power.

Once Chu Ning takes action, he will definitely become an enemy of the prince. When the two of them fight, he can seek a way to escape.

The prince's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he stared at Liu Yunqing: "Shut up, do you have the right to speak here?"

Chu Ning sneered: "Why is Brother Crown Prince so excited? Did you instruct He Peng to kill Fourth Brother?"

Such a good opportunity, of course we must seize it!

Today is the time to end it!

Facing Chu Ning's questioning, the prince's eyes turned cold, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across his face: "Why, eighteenth brother, instead of going to Zhao to quell the rebellion, you secretly came back to accuse me?"

"Fourth brother's matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right? Why are you making such a fuss?"

"Humph, the war is tense at the frontline right now. Instead of following the imperial order to quell the rebellion, you brought Bingzhou troops to Beijing. Are you planning a rebellion?"

Faced with Chu Ning's questioning, the prince simply did not respond.

He knew that he was in the wrong in this matter and could only find fault with Chu Ning.

At this moment, he cannot lose to Chu Ning in momentum!

At the critical moment, you must stay calm!

Chu Ning looked at the condescending prince with a playful look on his face, "I will give my father and the court an explanation about the affairs of Zhao State!"

"Now, we are going to talk about the death of Fourth Brother. As the regent prince, he was killed. This is such a serious crime. As a prince, how can I ignore it?"

"Soon Fourth Brother is usually very kind to me. It is reasonable, public and private that I must avenge him!"

Nice to you?

You two almost got into a fight, and I think this is good for you?

The prince was almost angry to death when he heard this.

If you want to find fault, just say it directly. Why make such a lame excuse?

The prince stared at Chu Ning and sneered, "Eighteenth brother, you have just returned to the capital, and you don't know many things. What happened today has its reasons, and Lord He had to take action to protect me!"

"I will report this matter to my father, so my eighteenth brother doesn't need to worry about it."

"is it?"

Chu Ning turned to look at He Peng and said indifferently: "So, it was indeed He Peng who killed Fourth Brother. In this case, I will take him down!"

"As for you, my brother the Crown Prince, you said you would give an explanation to our father. I will believe you for now, but you must hand this person over to me!"

Chu Ning had long wanted to kill He Peng, but he never had the chance.

Taking advantage of the fact that He Peng killed Chu Ying, he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of this person.

In this way, the prince will have no trusted ministers under his command!

But the prince was no fool, how could he not understand Chu Ning's intention? Hearing this, he sneered: "Humph, Eighteenth Brother, do you think that you can cover the sky with one hand just by bringing back Bingzhou's troops?"

"Today, I have secured Lord He. No one can take him away!"

The tough attitude immediately made the atmosphere tense.
