"Yes! Your Highness can volunteer to be the vanguard!"

Zhou Daozi said with a flash of light in his eyes.

"what?"

Chu Chang's eyes widened, and he looked at Zhou Daozi beside him in disbelief. His heart sank, and a bit of irritation flashed in his eyes. He suppressed his anger: "Teacher, what's your idea? Then Su Zhenyuan was trying every means to kill me. If the king is dead, he takes the initiative to ask Ying to serve as the vanguard, isn't that why he is sent to his door?"

"Your Highness, have you ever heard that wealth can be gained through danger?"

Zhou Daozi stroked his beard, paused and looked at Chu Chang beside him: "Since serving as a vanguard is unavoidable, why not take the initiative to join the army? In this way, it can also show that His Highness cares about the country and the people, and will devote his life to the people of Dali. Regardless of life and death, I am willing to take the lead."

"If word of this spreads, it will definitely gain a high reputation among the people!"

Chu Chang frowned, thinking about what Zhou Daozi had just said. According to Zhou Daozi's words, Su Zhenyuan would never give up. He would definitely take advantage of the situation and send him to serve as a vanguard.

If this is the case, as the teacher said, taking the initiative to serve can actually gain a good reputation. If you are lucky enough to survive to the end, you will be able to win over a large number of people not only among the people, but also among the military.

After thinking again and again, Chu Chang nodded: "Thank you very much, teacher, for your guidance. Just as the teacher said, I will go to the Marquis of Zhenyuan right now and ask for your orders to be the vanguard!"

"The sooner this matter is done, the better, otherwise once Su Zhenyuan gives the order, the situation will be very passive for His Highness."

Zhou Daozi warned solemnly, and at the same time he felt helpless in his heart. Originally, everything was planned, and as long as he followed the steps, things would go as smoothly as he imagined. However, he never expected that Chu Chang would make trouble one after another. , completely disrupting his plan.

Right now, we can only take one step at a time.

"Yes!"

Chu Chang nodded heavily. It was a matter of life and death for him. Chu Chang did not dare to slack off at all. He strode out of the inn and headed straight to the direction of the Su family camp in the north of the city.

On the other side, in the Su family's camp, Su Zhenyuan sat with his eyes closed, holding a book on the art of war in his hand.

Mrs. Dong returned to the tent and waited until her husband was nowhere to be seen. Then she came to the handsome tent to look for her husband. When she saw her husband sitting on a chair with his eyes closed and resting, she suddenly felt distressed. She stepped forward lightly and wanted to take him. Take the book in your husband's hand so that your husband can sleep more comfortably.

"Madam, why are you here?"

Su Zhenyuan, who had closed his eyes to rest, opened his eyes at some point and looked at the lady who had already arrived.

"Husband, did I wake you up?"

Mrs. Dong looked at her husband who had woken up, and felt very guilty in her heart. Her husband had been injured in the first place, and now a battle was imminent. He finally took a break, but he couldn't help but want to be woken up by her.

"I didn't sleep at all. I was waiting for someone."

Su Zhenyuan looked at his wife beside him. The two had been together for more than twenty years. Seeing his wife's self-blame, Su Zhenyuan had already guessed Dong's thoughts and explained.

"Waiting for someone?"

Dong was stunned for a moment and looked back outside the tent. It was already dark outside. Except for the patrolling guards, all the soldiers were resting. She couldn't think of anyone else coming.

"Well, considering the time, that person should be here soon."

Su Zhenyuan stood up and looked outside the tent.

At the same time, outside the Su family's camp, Chu Chang and Zhou Daozi came to the camp gate. Chu Chang took a deep breath, stepped forward, and looked at the guard on the side: "Go and report to your Marquis, just say The eldest prince is visiting."

The guard looked at Chu Chang and grinned: "My Lord Marquis said that if the Crown Prince comes, he can enter the camp directly without any notification."

"what?"

Chu Chang was stunned for a moment, then turned around and glanced at the teacher Zhou Daozi behind him. He had always been suspicious, and he even began to wonder if Zhou Daozi and Su Zhenyuan had set a trap for him and deliberately lured him into a trap.

However, seeing the same shock and confusion in Zhou Daozi's eyes, the suspicion in his heart dissipated a little.

"It seems that I still underestimated this Su Zhenyuan. I expected early in the morning that His Highness and I would come overnight."

Zhou Daozi couldn't help but admire.

"Teacher, should we enter now or..."

Chu Chang's heart suddenly suddenly felt a little uneasy. He originally thought it was a shameful thing to come to the Su family camp this time, so he didn't bring any guards. If Su Zhenyuan attacked them, I'm afraid no one would be able to save them. No.

"Your Highness, do you think we have any other options now?"

Zhou Daozi looked at Chu Chang with a wry smile.

Chu Chang twitched the corner of his mouth and fell into silence, then followed the guard and came to the handsome tent.

"coming!"

Su Zhenyuan watched the guard running over, the corners of his mouth raised more and more, turned around, and smiled slightly at the lady beside him.

"Report, His Royal Highness is here."

The guard knelt on the ground and said to Su Zhenyuan in the tent.

"Husband, since you still have something to do, I will leave without disturbing you."

Ms. Dong signaled to her husband, then turned around to leave, but Su Zhenyuan grabbed her hand.

"No, just stay here."

Feeling her husband's hot temperature on her hand, Dong trembled for no reason, and something strange flashed in her heart. After decades of being husband and wife, this was a rare intimacy between the two before.

"I'm afraid this isn't appropriate?"

Dong's cheeks turned red and she asked in a low voice.

"You are my wife, Su Zhenyuan, what is inappropriate about this?"

Su Zhenyuan smiled slightly, then raised his head and looked outside the tent, raising his voice: "Your Highness, am I right?"

Standing outside the tent, the corner of Chu Chang's mouth twitched, and a flash of irritation flashed in his eyes. His Majesty, the head of the East Palace, the Crown Prince of Dali, had never been called around like this before.

But now people had to bow their heads under the eaves. In order to survive, he could not continue to offend Su Zhenyuan. He could only take a deep breath: "What Marquis Zhenyuan said is absolutely true. It is very suitable for Mrs. Marquis Zhenyuan to stay here."

Mrs. Dong looked at Chu Chang who walked in, bowed and saluted: "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."

As for what happened just now, not a word was mentioned.

Chu Chang saw that there was a shallow slap mark on Mr. Dong's cheek, and subconsciously glanced at Su Zhenyuan who was standing aside. Seeing that Su Zhenyuan's face was expressionless, Chu Chang felt unsure, so he could only force out a smile. Meaning: "Mrs. Zhenyuanhou is really sorry. There were some minor misunderstandings before. Please forgive me, Mrs. Zhenyuanhou."

"His Royal Highness is serious. What happened before is in the past."

Mrs. Dong shook her head. Her husband was walking on thin ice in the court. Although she could not help her, she could not make trouble for her husband, so she planned to make this matter a big deal and treat it as a trivial matter, and pretend that nothing had happened.

"Oh? Your Highness, have you met my wife before?"

Su Zhenyuan pretended to be surprised and asked deliberately.
