Heaven is fearless

Seeing the gate tower of Changzhou City from afar, Chu Zhang relaxed all over his body, and lay flat on the ground with a thump, with the hard blades of grass poking his back, but this little pain was not worth it under the aches and pains of driving for days As soon as he mentioned it, the drowsy sleepiness urged him to close his eyes quickly, Chu Zhang shook his head, staggered up and walked forward.

He's almost there, wouldn't it be stupid to stop here...

Your Highness is still in Changzhou City, right?Have you written to him yet?The last letter should have been mailed according to the date, but unfortunately I didn't receive it, I still have to let that fast foot run again...

No, no, the war is over, he should take it himself...

Thinking wildly all the way, he crashed into a patrol team. Before he fell asleep, he was still thinking that maybe he could tell His Highness about the scenery on the Beirong grassland...

This sleep was so dark that Chu Zhang, who was completely relaxed, slept for three days. When the third day was about to fall into the night, he was awakened by the burning hunger in his stomach. He sat up slowly, and his bones and muscles were protesting wildly. .

Ignoring his physical discomfort, Chu Zhang lifted the quilt and got out of bed. This is not a military camp, but a guest room of a wealthy family.

He stood up and turned around, trying to connect the things before he passed out with the current situation. The door creaked, and a little girl came in with a towel and washbasin. Seeing him standing in the middle, she yelled in surprise : "General, are you awake?"

Chu Zhang looked at her inexplicably: "I...where is this? Why am I here?"

The little girl was very lively, and she chatted about the matter clearly and clearly: "This is the Changzhou Zhoumu Mansion, where the second prince lived after Bei Rong's retreat to deal with follow-up matters. You were brought back three days ago. The second prince said that you went deep into Beirong King's Court alone, and you have a great favor to Sheji, so he named you the town border general, a high-ranking official of the third rank!"

The news of the accident at the Beirong King's Court could not be concealed at all, and it spread throughout the grassland within a few days. The Wei scouts did not even go too deep, and found out that a Wei army sneaked into the Wangting under the guise of King Youxian and killed the Beirong King. news.

I heard that King Youxian, who had a shit basin on his head, and his subordinates almost broke up because of this. They fought for half a night. It came out, and it was only when he was about to kill someone with a knife that he realized that the guy who shouted "Long Live Youxian King" was not from Beirong at all!

This matter is simply a great shame to Bei Rong, they can't wait to cover the lid tightly, but a royal court is so big, how can they hide it, Wei's side almost hangs a banner on the city gate to laugh at the Bei Rong people up.

Chu Zhang hastily wiped his face, put on new clothes, squeezed a solid big steamed bun with one hand, and ate five of them with hot water. After asking about the location, he walked to Shao Tianhuan's study.

He was thinking about how to ask the prince for news, or let Shao Tianhuan transfer him back to the capital. Anyway, His Royal Highness is not in Changzhou anymore, why is he staying here...

As he was writing his manuscript, Shao Tianhuan, who saw him coming in, greeted him with a big smile, and patted him on the back hard: "You are really my most powerful general! You dare to go deep into the grassland alone and kill the King of Beirong, okay! Wait for me to go back." I still want to ask for credit for you! Don't worry, this time the crown prince will fail, and a large number of his subordinates will be relegated. When the time comes, what official position do you want—"

His words suddenly got stuck in the middle.

Chu Zhang suddenly raised his head and stared at him with a dazed expression: "What... who can't do it anymore?"

His expression at this moment was terrifyingly ferocious. Shao Tianhuan looked again, but there was nothing unusual. He only suspected that he was worrying too much, and hurriedly shared the good news with him: "You just woke up and didn't know? This time he Death is certain! Father fears him the most, he dared to defy the order and refuse to return, didn't he annoy father, he didn't go back to the East Palace, and went directly to prison!"

Chuzhang's brain slammed, his eyes straightened, and he murmured an excuse: "But...the resistance to the decree did not come back, isn't it because he wanted to defend Changzhou, if he left at that time, Changzhou would not be able to defend... "

Shao Tianhuan smiled meaningfully: "So, this is just an excuse. My father wanted to do this a long time ago, but I just lacked a reason. Now, I handed this reason to my father. Look, the dignified prince , don’t you still have to live in the Imperial Prison! Hahahahaha!”

Chu Zhang didn't listen to what he said later, and he didn't want to hear it either. He stood with his head down for a while, and asked softly, "...Is Your Highness so sure that the crown prince will die?"

When Shao Tianhuan was full of ambition, he did not hesitate to teach him: "Father has made up his mind this time, and there is no rumor about it. If the princelings put pressure on the court, it will only make Father more determined. If There are fools who spread the news self-righteously to attract public petitions... tsk tsk tsk."

He grinned, his face was radiant, and he made a final decision: "Then Shao Tianheng will die faster!"

He blocked the life paths in Chu Zhang's heart one by one. In his flying tone, Chu Zhang's heart slowly sank into the invisible abyss. After a long silence, he asked: "Is there no other way?" ?”

His position in this sentence is a bit strange, but Shao Tianhuan was so proud that he didn't notice the abnormality at all, and joked: "Yes! Unless he rebels now and breaks into the palace! Then no one will be able to kill him Is it? But look at his distressed appearance as a bereaved dog now, let alone soldiers and horses, he can't even eat a steamed bun now! Hahaha!"

Shao Tianhuan laughed so hard that he was about to die, Chu Zhang, who had been silent all this time, clenched his fists and repeated softly: "Unless... rebellion..."

Shao Tianhuan wiped away the tears from laughing, and belatedly realized that something was wrong with Chu Zhang, so he stretched out his hand and pushed him: "What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"

Chu Zhang staggered from being shoved by him, stood firm and raised his head, as if two will-o'-the-wisps were burning quietly and crazily in those dark eyes: "His Royal Highness does not have soldiers and horses, but I do."

Shao Tianhuan noticed the abnormality, he didn't dare to laugh any more, and slowly backed away: "You... what do you mean?"

Chu Zhang stood still: "I can lead troops to the capital, and I can rescue His Highness the Crown Prince..."

Shao Tianhuan's eyes widened: "You?! You are that sick person!"

He opened his mouth to call someone, but Chu Zhang strode out expressionlessly, his arms were like cast steel, strangled Shao Tianhuan's neck, and his whole body was frozen in place like a mountain, letting the person in his arms struggle to death, from now on. There was a loud sound in his throat, and he kicked his legs on the ground a few times in a mess, only to hear a click, and the sound of bones breaking was clear and audible.

The hands that were still scratching just now dropped suddenly, and his legs spread straight on the ground. Shao Tianhuan quietly drooped his head, staring at the front with his round eyes, which still contained consternation and fear.

Chu Zhang waited until there was no more movement from him before letting go, and his heavy body fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

The gray twilight outside the window fell heavily, Chu Zhang squatted down, quickly took off Shao Tianhuan's clothes and crown, and put it on for himself. He was a little taller than Shao Tianhuan, but fortunately it was not very obvious. He walked back and forth in the room several times , Recalling Shao Tianhuan's appearance on weekdays, he adjusted his posture bit by bit, shortened his steps, and increased the width of his arms...

Seeing that it was getting dark, the guard guarding the door asked at the door: "His Royal Highness, can I pass the meal?"

The door was suddenly opened, and the second prince was holding a lamp and wearing a cloak, and waved at them irritably: "Watch it, don't follow."

He spoke very fast, as if he was extremely impatient. The guards had long been accustomed to the attitude of the second prince, and hurriedly lowered their heads. When closing the door for the second prince, he casually glanced into the room and saw the new seal who entered in the afternoon. The general at the border of the town was resting on a short couch with his back to the door, he couldn't help but secretly sighed in his heart how much the second prince valued him, so he couldn't help but relax his movements.

The second prince carrying a lamp quickly disappeared at the end of the path with verdant trees. In the night, the guards guarding the Changzhou Mu Mansion also sent away the second prince who was in a bad mood and watched him walk towards the military camp outside the city.

In the camp outside Changzhou City, the generals passed on looking at a handwritten letter with dignified expressions and angry expressions on their faces: "As a Changzhou shepherd, you actually colluded with Bei Rong in private!"

"Where is the second prince now?" They asked the person who came with the token.

"I have left the city overnight, and I am waiting ten miles outside Changzhou City to escort the criminals to Beijing." The man smiled and replied peacefully.

The handwriting is the second prince's handwriting, stamped with the prince's seal, detailing the matter of Changzhou Mu's collusion with Bei Rong, and asking the generals to send troops into the city immediately when they see the handwriting, to arrest Changzhou Mu, and to kill those who stubbornly resist, and send the handwriting The envoy also holds a soldier talisman.

The generals who recognized the character but did not recognize the person immediately took orders to send troops, entered the defenseless city of Changzhou without any effort, surrounded the mansion of the state herdsman, and asked the state herdsmen to tie themselves out of the mansion.

How could Changzhou Mu, who was completely confused about what happened, dare to come out, especially when he heard that people outside had dubbed him an adulterer with Beirong, so he didn't dare to show his face, shouted several times and saw no one came out of the mansion, The leader of the army waved back, and the archers all stepped forward, bowing their bows and setting arrows, and the rain of arrows poured down, covering the entire mansion in an instant.

Shouts could be heard in the mansion. After a round of arrows, the soldiers brought the door hammer, shouted and knocked open the vermilion gate, and people poured into the mansion like a flood.

The boots of the soldiers stepped on the bloody and muddy ground, the exquisite garden was smashed to pieces by swords, and the whole house was screaming in panic. Go to the study in the backyard.

Many of the guards guarding outside the courtyard were shot to death by the arrow rain. Chu Zhang chopped down the remaining few like chopping melons and vegetables. He stepped into the study room first and cut the throat of the man on the couch. It splashed out, and a lot of it splashed on his face. Chu Zhang didn't realize it, and showed a cold and emotionless smile to the few generals who followed: "Let me introduce, this is the second prince of Wei."

The bloody long knife was pointed at the miserable person on the couch, the tip of the knife was still dripping blood.

The generals, who were clearly leading the troops to catch the rebels but saw the second prince's throat cut, couldn't even stand still, as if they felt that there was a big hole in front of them waiting to be stepped on.

"Want to get away? It's too late now."

The evil ghost with blood on his face smiled and said: "You sent troops without an order, massacred Changzhou Mu's family, and forced the second prince to death. His Majesty's forgiveness?"

In the extreme silence, someone murmured, "You... what are you going to do?"

The young man standing in a pool of blood with a knife in his hand smiled at them: "One hundred thousand soldiers and horses are just outside the city, why don't you go to Beijing with me and change the dynasty?"
