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

With the help of the White Horse Cavalry, Zhao Yu successfully killed Peng Jinglun.

But he did not become complacent about it. Instead, he was worried about the situation on Chu Ning's side.

Hearing from the White Horse Cavalry that the Sizhou troops and Bingzhou troops were already engaged in an all-out battle, he became extremely anxious and just wanted to get to Chu Ning as soon as possible.

Holding a spear and riding a warhorse, Zhao Yu, with a worried look on his face, quickly shuttled through the streets with his white horse cavalry.

On the way, although they encountered a battle between Bingzhou troops and Sizhou troops, they did not stop but rushed past the place where the two sides were fighting.

Relying on the advantage of cavalry, they charged recklessly and the Sizhou troops could do nothing to them.

The Bingzhou soldiers recognized that these were their own people and of course would not stop them.

Just like that, three quarters of an hour later, Zhao Yu finally brought his men to Chu Ning's side.

The battle here is very fierce!

The troops of Bingzhou and Sizhou were everywhere, and the two sides were constantly fighting.

Under the cover of night, screams were heard and soldiers continued to fall.

Zhao Yu immediately looked around, trying to lock on Chu Ning's location.

But after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find Chu Ning.

"Where is His Highness? Go find Him!" Zhao Yu immediately ordered the White Horse Cavalry to search everywhere.

They were not in a hurry to join the battle, their purpose was only to protect Chu Ning.

Fortunately, there were many Bingzhou soldiers here, and they quickly told Zhao Yu where Chu Ning was.

A moment later, Zhao Yu rode his horse into an alley and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Chu Ning was safe and sound.

"See Your Highness!"

"General Zhao has arrived just in time."

Chu Ning smiled and asked, "How is the situation at Zuixianlou?"

Zhao Yu said in a deep voice: "Peng Jinglun deliberately transferred me away tonight. Fortunately, Lord Jia asked the White Horse Cavalry to come to help, otherwise I would not see the sun tomorrow."

It was extremely dangerous just now. If the White Horse Cavalry hadn't arrived, he would have been hard to escape even with his extraordinary martial arts skills.

Chu Ning didn't seem surprised by this, and chuckled, "In fact, when Peng Jinglun gave you the invitation, Lord Jia noticed something was wrong."

"It's an ordinary banquet, you can just hold it in your own residence, why do you have to go to Zuixianlou? Just to be on the safe side, Lord Jia suggested that I send a team of white horse cavalry to secretly protect you."

"As Lord Jia expected, Third Brother chose to take action at the most unexpected time!"

"Now, all the princes have been stopped by the Sizhou troops, and I will also send Bingzhou troops to support them."

"Tonight, we must decide the winner!"

But these words made Zhao Yu's face change slightly: "Your Highness, I just came over from the Ninth Prince and the Sixteenth Prince, and they did not take action. Now the only ones fighting are the troops from Bingzhou and Sizhou."

"I'm afraid these princes won't act rashly. They want to wait for us and the Third Prince to fight to the death, and then they can reap the benefits."

Zhao Yu saw the situation at the scene clearly when he passed by just now.

So, he was very worried about the situation that would follow.

Even if the Bingzhou troops are powerful and can destroy the Sizhou troops, they will definitely suffer some losses.

By then, if all the princes unite to deal with them, this will be a force that cannot be underestimated.

But Chu Ning raised his lips slightly when he heard this, revealing a hint of amusement: "Don't worry, I have arranged a big show for them tonight."

"However, this matter requires your cooperation, General Zhao."

"Your Highness, please give your orders!"

Chu Ning then whispered his plan into Zhao Yu's ear.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will handle this matter properly."

Zhao Yu said in a deep voice: "After I leave, Your Highness must not go on the field in person."

After saying this, he looked at the guards around him and warned them, "You must protect His Highness' safety."

Then he bowed to Chu Ning and left with a team of white horse cavalry.

Chu Ning looked at Zhao Yu's departing back, a solemn look on his face.

Although the plan for tonight had already been well arranged by Jia Yu, it was still a matter of great importance. If it failed, everything would be lost.

He can't afford to lose, but he has reasons why he can't lose.

If he loses, the Third Prince will definitely massacre the Prince of Chu's Palace.

This time, either the Third Prince will be destroyed, or his Chu Palace will be destroyed.

"Third brother, since you are so impatient to take action, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Originally, he was a little hesitant about Jia Yu's sinister plan, but the third prince took action first and even wanted to kill Zhao Yu, which completely angered him.

Whether for his own sake or to protect the safety of those around him, he must take action.

Moreover, this is a life-and-death struggle.

There was no need for him to hold back.

Since you have made a move, you must hit the target with one strike.

At this moment, Chu Ning made up his mind.

At the same time, in the palace, the emperor was also closely watching the war situation.

The Imperial Palace, outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, in the courtyard.

The emperor looked at the gradually brightening sky, but his expression became increasingly gloomy.

He never dreamed that the Third Prince would take action immediately after taking control of the Sizhou troops.

The Sizhou soldiers were not even given a chance to rest!

Although he knew that the Third Prince was trying to decide the outcome quickly, Chu Ning was no pushover. If a fight really broke out, it was still unclear who would win and who would lose.

If the third prince wins, we can talk it over nicely, after all, he was the one who supported him.

But once the third prince fails and Chu Ning wins, the situation in Kyoto City will fall into Chu Ning's hands again.

As the emperor, he will be controlled by Chu Ning again.

While he was deep in thought, the sound of quick footsteps interrupted his thoughts.

"Your Majesty, something big has happened. The troops of Bingzhou and Sizhou have started fighting!"

Zhao Ming walked quickly to the emperor and said in panic, "Now the two sides are fighting fiercely, and it seems that they will not retreat until life or death."

The emperor's expression changed: "Chu Ning is really brave, isn't he afraid that I will punish him?"

The corner of Zhao Ming's mouth twitched, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.

It was clearly the Third Prince who took action first, and the Prince of Chu only went to rescue the Thirteenth Prince. Now it seems that His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is the one who is courageous.

The emperor is too partial.

However, he didn't dare say that.

The emperor seemed to realize that he was biased. He curled his lips and asked in a cold voice, "How is the situation with Thirteen?"

"Your Majesty, a mysterious team has defeated the Third Prince, and the Thirteenth Prince has been rescued."

Zhao Ming quickly replied: "The Third Prince has now retreated to the Fifth Prince's side and is fighting with the Bingzhou troops."

The emperor raised his eyebrows at this, and a look of surprise flashed across his face: "Mysterious team? Where is there a mysterious team in the city?"

"This... there is news from the Shadow Guards, it seems that they are from His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu."

Zhao Ming whispered, "And now Zhao Yu has also come out of Zuixianlou and killed Lord Peng Jinglun."

"What, Peng Jinglun was killed?"

The emperor was shocked and looked a little unhappy: "This is not a good omen."

For some reason, the emperor was frightened when he heard that Peng Jinglun had been killed.

But he also understood that there was nothing he could do now and he could only wait for the situation to develop.
