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

Chu Ning endured the pain in his body and said in a deep voice:

"Go to the palace, there is a royal doctor there!"

Zhao Yu reacted: "Yes, go to the palace!"

"Those who are still alive come here immediately, and everyone escort His Highness to the palace."

At the command, several surviving white horse cavalrymen gathered around, cleaned up the scene, and helped Chu Ning mount his horse.

Soon, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and everyone rode towards the Qin Imperial Palace.

In this battle, they were outnumbered, and the enemy was well prepared and had archers, which caused the White Horse Cavalry to suffer heavy losses.

Of the dozen white horse cavalrymen, only four were left.

Fortunately, the Thirteenth Prince and Zhao Yu were still there, and they personally escorted Chu Ning to the palace.

Three quarters of an hour later, everyone arrived at the palace.

The imperial guards must have thought that the Prince of Chu had been attacked again and was injured, so they didn't even bother to report it and took Chu Ning directly to the palace.

Xianyang Palace, side hall.

Ying Zheng had a gloomy face and a group of ministers stood below him.

"Investigate, make sure to find out who dares to do this under my nose!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Prime Minister Gan Long took the initiative to step forward and said, "Your Majesty, Yan State and Chu State have a feud. This incident is likely to be done by Yan Wuji."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly and was about to speak when a soldier came to report: "Your Majesty, something happened. His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was attacked on the way to the palace and was seriously injured. He is now outside the palace."

As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was shocked.

Four princes came from the State of Chu, and now one is dead and one is injured. They can no longer give an explanation to the State of Chu.

If something happens to Chu Ning again, the trouble will be even bigger.

Even though Chu had many princes, if three of them were killed or injured at once, Chu would definitely go to war with Qin.

Ying Zheng's face suddenly became extremely ugly: "Immediately let the imperial physician treat him and arrange for him to stay in the palace where Chu Feng is."

"Yes!" The imperial guard responded and turned around to pass on the order.

Who knew that at this moment, Ying Zheng seemed to have thought of something and asked again: "Where is Chu Kuang?"

"Your Highness, His Highness Thirteenth Prince of Da Chu is fine."

"Then let him come over. I want to know what happened just now."

"Yes!"

The imperial guards quickly went out to pass the message, and a moment later, the Thirteenth Prince Chu Kuang came in with a gloomy face.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of Qin!"

"No need to be so polite, just tell me what happened just now." Ying Zheng didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.

Chu Kuang recounted the situation of the attack just now with a cold face.

In the quiet hall, there was only Chu Kuang's angry voice.

Yingzheng frowned after hearing this: "So, the other party knew you would come to the palace, so they ambushed you on the way."

He turned to look at Gan Long and asked, "Prime Minister, what do you think of this matter?"

Gan Long said with a serious expression: "It seems that the other party came here with a premeditated plan. They first attacked Chu Feng and the other two, with the purpose of forcing Chu Ning to leave the posthouse."

"If Chu Ning had stayed in the post house, the other party would not have had the opportunity to attack. Only when Chu Ning left the post house would they have the opportunity to attack."

"Such a scheme is hard to guard against. To be able to plan all this, it seems that the other party has a certain level of strength."

The Thirteenth Prince glared and said, "You mean to say that the other party's target from the beginning was Eighteenth Brother?"

Gan Long nodded: "I'm afraid that's the case."

"But this is not right."

The Thirteenth Prince was puzzled and said, "My Eighteenth Brother and I have been here for a long time. If the other party wanted to take action, they would have done it long ago. Why wait until now?"

He is just a military man, he thinks very simply and speaks without thinking.

Gan Long sighed, "I didn't take action earlier because I didn't have the right opportunity. The other party took advantage of Chu Feng and Chu Ning being out tonight and deliberately killed them to lure them out."

"This move not only takes you into account, but also takes His Majesty and everyone in my dynasty into account."

"Perhaps, they let Chu Feng run away on purpose, in order to get him to come to the palace and wait for Chu Ning to come and visit."

These words made the Thirteenth Prince's eyes widen and anger rushed to his forehead.

After talking for so long, it turned out that they were being plotted against.

However, the one who is most angry now is Ying Zheng.

In the city of Kyoto, under the feet of the emperor, there were actually people who dared to plot against him.

How audacious!

The emperor of the most powerful country in the world was actually plotted against in his own capital city. If this were to get out, it would be a laughing stock.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Ying Zheng said with a cold face: "This matter must be thoroughly investigated!"

"No matter who it is, I will not give up!"

Gan Long nodded slightly: "Your Majesty, since His Highness Chu Kuang and others have just killed a lot of men in black, you can order them to bring back their bodies and see if you can find out the mastermind behind the scenes from their identities."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and said, "I'll leave this matter to you, Prime Minister, to supervise it personally!"

"Yes!" Gan Long responded and went down to deal with it immediately.

"If you have nothing else to do, please leave. I will go see Chu Ning!"

After all, he is the most powerful prince in the Great Chu State. If something happens to Chu Ning here, the State of Chu will never let it go.

Chu Feng was injured just now, so he didn’t have to go.

But Chu Ning was injured, so he had to go.

Soon, Ying Zheng and the Thirteenth Prince came to the room where Chu Ning was.

Inside the room, Chu Ning was lying on the bed, while the eleventh prince Chu Feng was sitting on a chair.

Seeing Ying Zheng coming, Chu Feng stepped forward and saluted: "Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of Qin."

Ying Zheng glanced at him and asked, "How is your injury?"

"Although I was injured, I took some natural treasures, and with the treatment of the imperial physician, my internal injuries have been temporarily stabilized."

Chu Feng said in a deep voice: "But the situation of Eighteenth Brother is not optimistic. The arrowhead is poisonous and has now penetrated into the bone marrow. The imperial physician is removing the poison."

The Thirteenth Prince was furious when he heard this: "These damn guys, don't let me know who did it, otherwise I won't forgive him!"

Ying Zheng frowned, revealing a solemn expression: "Even such a despicable method is used. It seems that the other party does not want to give Chu Ning any chance to survive."

"The other party took advantage of the attack on you tonight to deliberately lure Chu Ning out so that they could kill him."

"Think about it, do you have any enemies in Yangcheng?"

Chu Feng and Chu Kuang looked at each other, with a solemn look on their faces.

You can say we have enemies, or you can say we don’t have enemies.

After all, they were the princes of the Chu State, and other dynasties that had bad relations with them could be said to be their enemies.

But because they are princes, they have no real enemies.

Seeing that the two were silent, Ying Zheng frowned, as if he had thought of this, and said in a deep voice: "Forget it, the Prime Minister has already gone to investigate, we just need to wait for his news."

He turned to the imperial physician and asked, "How is the King of Chu doing?"

The imperial physician hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, this is a highly poisonous substance. If it weren't for the strong body of His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, an ordinary person would have died."

"But even so, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is in a very critical condition right now. Whether he can survive depends on tonight."

"If we can get through this safely, we will be fine. If we can't survive this night, even the Great Luo Immortal can't save us."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
