Surrounded by palace maids and guards, King Han An soon arrived at Concubine Hu's bedroom.

"Your Majesty, I welcome you." Lady Hu, who had received the news early, was already waiting in front of the bedroom.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time." Looking at the charming beauty in front of him, King Han An smiled and helped Concubine Hu up.

"The King of Han is in a really good mood!" Just as King Han An was about to pull Concubine Hu into the bedroom, a strange and eerie voice sounded from the top of the bedroom.

"Someone, come and protect the emperor." Han Wangan couldn't help but open his eyes wide. On the roof of the palace, a figure suddenly appeared, eerie and murderous. Needless to say, he knew that the person came with bad intentions.

Following Han Wangan's call, guards inside and outside the palace rushed in, pointing swords, spears, and halberds at the newcomers.

However, these guards, who were considered elite in the Korean army, had no power to resist the flying chains. Amid screams, their figures were knocked away one after another, and the ground was dyed red with blood.

King Han An's face was horrified. Behind the flying iron chains, he had already guessed the identity of the person: the Prince of Baiyue, the Red-browed Dragon Snake, Tianze.

More and more guards came, but King Han An found it difficult to find a sense of security. He knew better than anyone what he had done in the land of Baiyue. He also knew better than anyone how much Tianze, the crown prince of Baiyue, hated him. Why did Tianze, who should have been dead, appear here at this time? Is there any need to think about it?

Tianze controlled the chains, and black energy turned into poisonous snakes. As they flew, they turned into bloodthirsty monsters, like a nine-headed snake from hell, devouring all life within sight.

Some guards were thrown into the air and fell to their death, while others were directly hit by the snake head at the end of the chain, causing broken bones and collapsed chests.

Tianze's martial arts based on witchcraft were simply unsolvable for the palace guards. Fortunately, the changes here attracted more palace guards, which made King Han feel more secure.

"Han An, I won't kill you this time. I will let you suffer in fear and die in despair." Tianze, who had pierced a guard again, grabbed his body and threw it in front of Han Wangan. Then he leaped high into the sky, and with the iron chains flying, he turned into a flying snake and disappeared into the night.

"Tianze!" Han Wangan looked at the direction where Tianze disappeared. The expression on his face was very ugly, and he even had a feeling of powerlessness. The huge Han Palace was allowed to enter and leave freely by a Tianze. For a king, this was something he could never tolerate.

However, King Han An soon discovered that there was more than one thing he could not tolerate. Just when he summoned Ji Wuye, Zhang Kaidi, Han Yu and Han Fei into the palace to discuss the capture of Tianze, Tianze led the Corpse-Driving Demon, the Wushuang Ghost and the King of Hundred Poisons to raid the Prince's Mansion. The Prince of Han was the real target of Tianze and others.

"What did you say? The prince was captured by Tianze?" The report from the guards made Han Wangan's already bad mood even darker.

"Tianze is so brave." Ji Wuye said angrily, looking indignant.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was arrested?" Han Fei pondered, thinking about the meaning behind this matter and the possible consequences it might cause.

"This matter may be beneficial to me, but how should it be done?" Han Yu was thinking of another thing. The prince was arrested. If something unexpected happened, who else could succeed the prince in the whole of Korea except him?

Han Fei saw the change in Han Yu's expression in an instant. He could think of the same thing as Han Yu. Han Fei, realizing the problem, stepped forward and said, "Father, calm down. The priority now is to rescue the prince."

"What do you think we should do?" Han Wangan said, suppressing his anger.

"Fourth brother is resourceful and steady, and he has many extraordinary people under his tutelage. Father can let fourth brother be responsible for rescuing the prince." Han Fei replied.

"Hmm?" Han Yu was still thinking about how to plan for himself in this matter. Han Fei, who reacted faster than him, had dragged him into the water. Some things are so wonderful that a slight change is enough to make what should have happened develop in another direction.

The task that should have originally fallen on Han Fei, leaving him stuck in a dilemma, was pushed onto his brother Han Yu by Han Fei himself. Because at that moment, he realized that Han Yu might be the person who most wanted something to happen to the prince, and might even add fuel to the flames. What he had to do was to push Han Yu in and tie Han Yu's fate to that of the prince.

If anything happens to the prince, Han Yu will be held responsible.

Han Yu reacted only then. It had to be said that among all of Han Wangan's sons, Han Fei was the best one in terms of talent. Han Yu was just a little slow in reacting, and was already calculated by Han Fei.

I underestimated my ninth brother. Han Yu had guessed Han Fei's intention while thinking.

"Han Yu, this matter is handed over to you. You must rescue the prince. He is not only the prince of our Han Dynasty, but also your brother." Han Wangan's gaze fell on Han Yu. Han Wangan understood the abilities of his fourth son. He knew that he was a capable son.

"Yes, father. But father, the prince is now trapped in the hands of the enemy and cannot afford any mistakes. To be on the safe side, I need some help." Han Yu said.

"You can mobilize anyone you need from all over the country, under me," said King Han.

"My ninth brother is very resourceful. As soon as he returned to Xinzheng, he solved the case of the ghost soldiers robbing the payroll. This shows how resourceful he is. So, father, please transfer my ninth brother to be my deputy, so that the two brothers can work together to rescue the prince." Han Yu said. Since Han Fei wanted to trick him, there was no need for him to be polite to Han Fei.

"Yes." Han Wangan looked at Han Fei and nodded. Although he did not like Han Fei's naivety and frivolity, he also knew that his son was talented. As a student of the Confucian Xunzi, he possessed outstanding talents and knowledge.

"Ninth brother." Han Yu also looked at Han Fei.

"Fourth brother." Han Fei met Han Yu's gaze with a hint of bitterness. He knew that he had offended his fourth brother this time, but there was nothing he could do about it.

"General." Han Wangan did not see the complicated thoughts between the two brothers. He still needed to mobilize more forces to rescue his son who was being used as a pawn.

"I'm here." Ji Wuye bowed.

"Gather the best soldiers and generals for Han Yu to command."

"Yes."

Chapter 130: Everyone shows their abilities and takes action

At a command from Prince Han An, the elite troops from Xinzheng began to gather towards the Prince's Mansion. Han Yu, the fourth prince of the Kingdom of Han, went to the front line in person. The first thing he did was to gather the craftsmen who had participated in the construction of the Prince's Mansion, in order to find out the full situation inside the Prince's Mansion.

In the entire Han Dynasty, Han Yu, as the fourth prince, actually hoped that something would happen to the prince the most. However, Han Fei's reaction was faster than his. Before Han Yu could push Han Fei out, Han Fei had already pushed him out and made him responsible for rescuing the prince.

In this way, once something happened to the prince, he would be suspected of being incompetent, or even having bad intentions and deliberately condoning the murderer to murder the prince. Not to mention seeking the position of prince, his current position would be threatened, and Han Fei would then become the biggest beneficiary.

Han Yu knew that his ninth brother had always been ambitious, but he never imagined that the seemingly naive Han Fei actually had such a gloomy mind and thought the same thing as him. Fortunately, he reacted very quickly. While accepting the task, he also pulled Han Fei in. In this way, the future of the two was linked to the life of the prince. It could be said that they would prosper together and suffer together. He didn't have to worry about Han Fei taking the opportunity to get rid of the prince, put the blame on him, and then reap the benefits.

"Ninth brother, do you have any good ideas?" Han Yu, who had rushed to the Prince's Mansion overnight, asked Han Fei.

"I have to listen to Fourth Brother." Han Fei put away his usual cynicism. Now was not the time for him to act recklessly. If he gave others a chance to talk about him, he would be in endless trouble.

While the Prince's Mansion was surrounded by heavy troops, King Han's Palace was also completely blocked by King Han An's order. Tianze's appearance made him feel deeply threatened. Although Tianze's first attack failed, as a king, his safety could not afford to be at risk of any accidents.

The palace guards alone could not make Han Wangan feel absolutely safe.

In great worry, King Han An decided to go to his other favorite concubine, who was good at calming the nerves, and there he could get a good sleep.

Han Wangan's thoughts were naturally seen through by Concubine Hu. She also knew how powerful her opponent was. However, at the moment, she was not without any means of counterattack.

"Your Majesty, there is another person in Xinzheng who is not afraid of Tianze's assassination." Just as Han Wangan was about to leave, Concubine Hu's words made him stop.

"Who are you talking about?" Han Wangan turned around and asked.

"Yang Chong is the commander of the Sima Sect." Lady Hu said.

"He is Ji Wuye's man, and he openly killed generals in the army. I can't trust such a person." Han Wangan frowned.

"But his martial arts skills are indeed very good. For a man who can take the head of a general in the midst of chaos, his martial arts skills are undoubtedly strong. As for his loyalty..." Lady Hu said. She wanted to take this opportunity to recommend Yang Chong to King Han An. It seemed that this little woman had been honest and obedient for too long and always wanted to do something that challenged taboos.

"Loyalty is more important than ability." Han Wangan said. There are many people in Han, and there is naturally no shortage of people who are both literary and martial, but there are not many people that Han Wangan can trust.

"Yang Chong can be completely loyal to the king. The king can give him the same things that Ji Wuye can give him, and even more. Moreover, Ji Wuye is only a general, and the king is the king of Han, and..." said Lady Hu.

"And what?" Han Wangan asked. In the face of safety, the unhappiness that Yang Chong brought to him became less and less.

"And your Majesty also knows that Honglian is currently learning martial arts from Yang Chong. You also saw it when you met Honglian last time. The martial arts she practices can be considered top-notch. This shows that Yang Chong has not hidden anything from Honglian." Lady Hu spoke softly, guiding Han Wangan's thoughts.

"It's nothing but wishful thinking." Han Wangan sneered.

"But isn't it true that Yang Chong is loyal to the king? Otherwise, why would he care so much about Honglian?" Lady Hu said.

I have to say that Lady Hu is indeed a very smart woman. With the same behavior in front of Honglian, she guided Honglian towards the relationship between men and women, and with Han Wangan, she interpreted the same thing as Yang Chong's loyalty to him. More importantly, there is nothing wrong with this explanation.

"He is so bold and reckless, and he is indecisive. Such a person may not be trustworthy. Well, don't interfere in the affairs outside. Now that the remnants of the Baiyue are outside, you must also be careful. I'm leaving first." Han Wangan stopped Concubine Hu who wanted to say something. Now he just wanted to go to another place to have a good sleep.

"Yes." Lady Hu looked at Han Wangan's departing back, and all her thoughts could only be summed up in this one word.

"Your Majesty, the king has taken all the guards to Madam Mingzhu." Soon, a palace maid walked up to Concubine Hu and told her about the situation outside the palace.

"I see. He is the king's guard!" Lady Hu sighed softly. She once thought it was a very normal thing, but now she feels it is not so. In the eyes of King Han, he is the most important after all. She seems to be favored, but she is just a plaything.

She had a clear understanding of this in the past, and had never had any extravagant hopes. However, after experiencing some things, she became impulsive after all, and deep in her heart, she had extravagant hopes that she shouldn't have. Han Wangan taught her to be cautious, while Yang Chong stirred up her desires and aroused her greed.

……

In front of the Prince's Mansion, the sun had dispelled the darkness, but the haze covering the upper floors of the Prince's Mansion had become even heavier.

After a series of preparations, Han Yu mobilized a large number of troops and borrowed Mo Ya and Bai Feng from Ji Wuye. He even did not let Han Fei go, forcing Han Fei to ask Wei Zhuang to leave, and he also sent his adopted son Han Qiancheng.

Tianze and his men are very powerful in martial arts, and their witchcraft is even more bizarre and unpredictable, but if that were all, they would not be able to cause much trouble under the siege of the army. However, Tianze has hostages in his hands that make Han Yu, Han Fei, and even Ji Wuye cautious. Therefore, how to rescue the prince without hurting him is an extremely difficult task for them, but they have to do it perfectly and cannot allow any mistakes.

"Please ask Mr. Wei Zhuang to attack the South Gate, Qian Cheng to be responsible for the West Gate, Mo Ya and Bai Feng to be responsible for the East Gate." Han Yu gave his final instructions. What happened next had nothing to do with him. His plan had been made. Whether it would succeed in the end depended on the actions of Wei Zhuang and others.

Wei Zhuang and the others naturally obeyed Han Yu's orders, either out of personal feelings or because of orders.

"Ninth brother, do you have anything to add?" Han Yu looked at Han Fei again. He dragged Han Fei into the water, not to let Han Fei watch the show.

"Fourth brother has arranged it very well. I have nothing to add." Han Fei nodded. The rescue mission was not complicated to plan, but the specific operation process was really difficult.

"Then let's take action." Han Yu took a deep breath and gave the order.

Following Han Yu's order, Wei Zhuang directly broke down the gate of the Prince's Mansion. There was no such thing as courtesy.

After entering the Prince's Mansion, Wei Zhuang saw the tall Wushuang Ghost. Neither of them was a person who liked to talk nonsense. One knew that the person opposite him was his target, and the other knew that the person opposite him was his enemy. The iron fist and the demon sword collided in an instant.

Wei Zhuang slashed at Wushuang Gui with his sword. Facing the sword that could cut gold into pieces, Wushuang Gui did not dodge or evade. Instead, he resisted with his body and punched Wei Zhuang in the chest. Coincidentally, Wei Zhuang's swordsmanship was domineering and his physical strength was also extraordinary. Facing Wushuang Gui's powerful punch, Wei Zhuang also chose to fight head-on. In an instant, the two had fought for several rounds.

When Wushuang Gui attacked again, Wei Zhuang dodged and retreated. After several sword strikes, Wushuang Gui was not hurt at all. This battle seemed difficult, but Wei Zhuang already had an idea.

"If it were before, when I met a monster like you who is invulnerable to swords and guns, I might really have a headache, but now, I have a way to deal with it. You are lucky, but also unfortunate, because this method was originally used to deal with that guy." Wei Zhuang muttered to himself, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at Wushuang Gui's knee.

Although Wushuang Gui did not understand what Wei Zhuang meant, he felt a little chill in his subconscious mind. Wei Zhuang did not give him too much time to think. When man and sword became one, Wushuang Gui only saw sword energy merging with the human figure and turning into afterimages. In an instant, he had been attacked countless times, and each attack fell on the same place, that is, his knees.

Even though his defense was invincible, blood still seeped out of his skin after being cut countless times by the shark-tooth sword, and his defense was broken.

The intense pain made Wushuang Gui roar, and he punched out with both fists at the same time, trying to block Wei Zhuang's attack.

But Wei Zhuang's attack was more tricky. He simply abandoned the shark-tooth sword, turned into an arrow, and kicked Wushuang Gui between the knees. Wushuang Gui fell down with a groan as his bones could not bear the burden.

Wushuang Gui, who had lost his ability to move, could only watch Wei Zhuang pass him, walk into the hall, and go deep into the Prince's Mansion. But he was not in a hurry, because he knew that Wei Zhuang could not rescue the Prince of Korea, and the enemies outside the mansion were destined to be disappointed.

When Wei Zhuang went deep into the Prince's Mansion, Han Qiancheng, Mo Ya, Bai Feng and others who went deep into the palace from the east and west gates did not encounter any resistance along the way. Apart from some patrolling zombies, they did not even encounter poison gas.

Soon the three groups met in front of the main hall of the Prince's Mansion.

The palace door opened, and they saw the prince's back, but when they walked in, everything they saw had turned into poisonous fog, and they had to retreat one by one. Each of them had the power to kill the Poison King, but in front of the poisonous fog, they could only temporarily avoid the edge.

The first rescue attempt ended in failure.

Chapter 131 Bai Yifei: Someone Stranger Than Me

Under the cover of night, when the situation in Xinzheng had become extremely tense due to the changes in the Prince's Mansion, the dancers in the General's Mansion were still singing and dancing, using their bodies and skills to please their masters.

At this time, most of the top leaders of Ye Mu were here, including Ji Wuye, Blood-Robed Marquis Bai Yifei, Emerald Tiger, and even Yang Chong who had been slacking off was called here.

Logically speaking, the prince has always been on good terms with Ji Wuye, and is Ji Wuye's important ally in the Korean court. Now that the prince is in Tianze's hands, Ji Wuye and Ye Mu should be anxious, but Ji Wuye is now extremely calm, and doesn't seem to be worried about the prince's safety at all.

Because Ji Wuye has enough confidence, because Tianze cannot escape from the control of Ye Mu from beginning to end.

"The raid during the day failed. It seems that Tianze has become more capable over the years." Ji Wuye said casually. He did not feel any pressure. Instead, he found it funny to see people from Xinzheng, from Han Wangan to Han Yu and Zhang Kaidi, jumping up and down in panic.

"No matter how you grow, you're just a plaything after all." Bai Yifei said coldly, but his gaze turned to Yang Chong. Although they both belonged to the same night, this was the first time they really came into contact.

Bai Yifei was also curious about Yang Chong. After all, the grudges between Yang Chong and the Nong family and Luowang were no secret to someone like him.

A person who could survive the stranglehold of the farmers and the net was enough for him to take seriously. Moreover, Ji Wuye seemed to have other plans by recruiting Yang Chong under his command. He had to pay attention to this as he had other plans for Ji Wuye.

More importantly, by Yang Chong's side, there is Yan Lingji. Yan Lingji's natural ability to control fire is also crucial to him. Although Yan Lingji is far from his opponent at this time, in terms of talent and upper limit, Yan Lingji is still above him.

Therefore, Bai Yifei was thinking about both Yang Chong and Yan Lingji, no matter they were male or female. However, for Yang Chong, Bai Yifei wanted to get the secret from him and take his life, while for Yan Lingji, he wanted Yan Lingji's bloodline.

"Of course. No matter how much Tianze jumps, he can't escape from the grasp of the general and the marquis, Commander Yang, don't you think so?" Emerald Tiger flattered and turned the topic to Yang Chong.

For a moment, all eyes in the hall, except those of the dancers and musicians, were on Yang Chong.

There were even a few dancers who took the opportunity to glance at Yang Chong while they were dancing.

In the hall, Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei, Feicuihu and Yang Chong were either the host or the guests, but Ji Wuye was old and ugly, Bai Yifei had a sickly and gloomy look, and a ghost-like look that kept strangers away. As for Feicuihu, he was fat and looked like a pig. Only Yang Chong was young and heroic. Without considering their identities, Yang Chong was the most attractive one among the four.

"Of course, Tianze, there are some problems here, but they are nothing to worry about." Yang Chong pointed to his head.

"You seem to have fought with Tianze?" Bai Yifei took the initiative to ask.

"We've fought twice. The one in my family was also a Baiyue person, and he has a history with Tianze." Yang Chong said with a smile, without hiding anything. Of course, there was no need to hide anything. If Bai Yifei dared to reach out his hand, he would just chop him off.

"What do you think of Tianze's martial arts?" Bai Yifei asked.

Ji Wuye's eyes also fell on Yang Chong at this time. He also wanted to hear Yang Chong's answer, and he wanted to see the confrontation between Yang Chong and Bai Yifei even more. He recruited Yang Chong under his command not only to humiliate Han Wangan and demonstrate his power as a general.

"I think it should be no problem to beat four or five of them." Yang Chong said.

"Really? It seems that the general has really recruited a brave general!" Bai Yifei said with inexplicable meaning and raised his wine glass to Yang Chong.

"Of course, my vision has never been wrong over the years." Ji Wuye laughed.

"Please." Bai Yifei gestured to Yang Chong, and a faint chill emanated from his body and flowed towards Yang Chong.

"Please come in, Marquis Blood-Robed." Yang Chong raised his glass and drank it all. As for Bai Yifei's temptation, he just pretended not to see it.

Yang Chong's casualness had become something else in Bai Yifei's eyes. Although the cold air he emitted was invisible, he did not hold back. The cold air that was enough to freeze ordinary people fell around Yang Chong, but it was like a drop in the ocean, without causing a single ripple. What kind of method was this?

In Yang Chong, Bai Yifei, this weird person, actually saw something weird in him, bizarrely.

Of course, Bai Yifei could not guess Yang Chong's method. The energy-absorbing technique was simply not a martial art from this world. As for his attempt to test Yang Chong's background with that little bit of coldness, that was even more wishful thinking.

"Please, everyone." While Bai Yifei was in doubt, the Emerald Tiger was still trying to ease the atmosphere. As a businessman, he could not see the secret confrontation between Bai Yifei and Yang Chong.
