Chapter 498 The Second Prince Stands on His Own

Mu Nantian and his group left, heading towards Nanxuan City, Su Bai sent them out of the city, watching them disappear at the end of his vision.

Sending Mu Nantian and his party away is an end to a concern on the second floor. After all, Mu Nantian and the others didn't have a good time in Shangjing, so it's better to go back!

After returning to the Lu Mansion, he happened to meet Xiaosan who came back from outside. Su Bai saw that Xiaosan's face was a little strange, so he asked: "Little San, what happened? By the way, now that Xiaowu is married, you and What happened to Princess Yuqin?"

Xiaosan was walking all the way home, but she didn't find Su Bai. Hearing the voice, she turned her head and glanced at him, and said, "You don't have to worry about my affairs with Yuqin! But you, this time, thought you would Why did you come back alone with your siblings?"

Su Bai didn't tell Xiaosan and Xiaowu about Mingyue, so Xiaosan doesn't know about Mingyue in the ice now, his face froze, and he waved his hands and said, "Hehe, let's get down to business!"

Xiaosan saw that Su Bai didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask any more, and said with a straight face, "I'm afraid something big will happen!"

Su Bai frowned, seeing that the other party was so serious, it seemed that it was not a trivial matter, and asked: "Little third brother, what is it?"

Xiao San answered inappropriately and asked: "Second Prince Zhao Chen, do you still remember?"

Su Bai was stunned for a moment, not sure why the other party suddenly mentioned the second prince, but he still had some impression, so he nodded.

Xiao San sighed and said: "The troubles in the 'world' of the year before last not only ruined Prince Rong, but even the second prince Zhao Chen was also affected, and was driven to the southernmost point by the emperor as a punishment."

Su Bai nodded again, after Xiaosan said so, he also remembered, there is indeed such a thing.

Xiaosan continued: "Originally, this punishment was not serious. Anyway, he will be able to return to Beijing soon. It's just that the second prince, Zhao Chen, has not returned to Beijing until now, and news has recently come from the south that he is The second prince, Zhao Chen, is determined to stand on his own!"

Su Bai frowned, self-reliant?His face changed and he said: "Little third brother, do you mean that the second prince, Zhao Chen, has the possibility of rebellion?"

Xiao San nodded and said: "Yes, judging from the current news, there is a great possibility! I am still investigating the news, but I think it is probably close to ten, after all, there is no wind without waves!"

Xiaosan sighed for a long time, and Xiaosan also became indifferent, he never thought that the second prince Zhao Chen would want to stand on his own and rebel against him!In fact, Su Bai doesn't care who is the emperor, he will continue to be his knight, but if there is a war, the situation will be different.

There is a good saying: I would rather be a dog of peace than a person in troubled times!Su Bai came from a peaceful age. After traveling through the Wu Dynasty, it was also a time of peaceful development and prosperity. He never thought that this war would come as soon as it was said!No time to prepare at all!

The two were silent for a moment, before Su Bai said: "The power of the second prince Zhao Chen is in the south? But even if he is in the south, can he still compete with the entire court? I think this is undoubtedly hitting a stone with an egg! I think even if the second prince really rebelled, It should be calmed down soon."

Xiaosan shook her head and said: "That's not what you said. You are also aware of the struggle for the throne among the several princes. In the past, it was a secret fight. Now that the second prince has started this problem, it would be good if it can be calmed down soon. , if you really let him gain a firm foothold, what do you make the other princes think?"

Su Bai's face changed and he said, "You mean that other princes are also self-reliant?"

"It's hard to say, it's hard to say! Hehe, Brother Su, you don't really think that our Wu Dynasty is a peaceful and prosperous age, do you? In fact, whether it is in the court or in the rivers and lakes, there are undercurrents surging! Now The second prince Zhao Chen's actions like this have caused waves, and I am afraid that the days to come will not be stable!" Xiao San squinted her eyes and sighed.

Su Bai was taken aback when he heard the words, if there was an undercurrent in the imperial court, he knew a little bit about it, but if there was also an undercurrent in the rivers and lakes, it doesn't seem to be the case, right?But looking at Xiaosan's appearance, it seems that he is not joking. Is there something else I don't know?Thinking about it again, he doesn't seem to know much about it, and it seems normal that he doesn't see it!
Su Bai asked, "Then what shall we do now?"

Xiaosan said: "What else can I do? Of course I'm waiting, I think there will be clear news coming back soon, if the second prince Zhao Chen really rebelled, then naturally we will send troops to suppress it, our 'Nine Palaces' Headhunters and 'Xuanwei' should also be sent many people there, I said Brother Su, this is a good opportunity to make contributions, don't you want to show off your skills?"

Su Bai didn't care much about building meritorious deeds, he was just curious, what does this have to do with "Nine Palace Gate" and "Xuanwei"?
He asked: "Little third brother, in this war, it has nothing to do with our headhunters and 'Xuanwei'?"

Speaking of which, although he knew that there were two major institutions in the Wu Dynasty, one was the "Nine Palaces Gate" and the other was the "Xuanwei", but he had rarely heard about the "Xuanwei" and had no contact with the other party. It is said that "Xuanwei" is to protect the safety of the imperial palace and the royal family, and now they are going to be dispatched?
Xiao Sanyi pursed his lips and said: "What are you talking about! How come the war has nothing to do with our 'Nine Palaces'? There are many sects in the south, and there are also many people in the martial arts. They are going to rebel with the second prince Zhao Chen. Who will deal with it? Don't rely on our 'Jiugongmen' and 'Xuanwei'! Of course, some sects should also intervene to quell the rebellion."

Hearing Xiaosan's words, Su Bai remembered that the Wu Dynasty was not the dynasty of China. The martial arts prevailed here, and the power of the sect should not be underestimated. The effect is very small, but the strength of the warrior is not small after all, and there is an innate expert, the force is even stronger!

The most important thing is that warriors also have a great role in other aspects, such as spying on intelligence, such as small groups of harassment...

Seeing that Su Bai didn't speak, Xiao San asked again: "Brother Su, you haven't answered my question yet! You really don't want to make meritorious deeds? Let me tell you, if you really make great achievements, you won't be considered an official. You can get a piece of land and establish a It is also very good to have a villa, or even establish a sect! This can be recognized by the court!"

When Su Bai heard this, he was really moved. After all, he never had a home of his own, and he had thought about building a mountain villa. Nothing else is necessary. There must be all kinds of good wine in the villa!As for the sect, he didn't think about it.

So he pondered for a moment, and said: "Let's see and talk about it, how things are going now, it hasn't been settled yet!"

Xiao San snorted: "I don't believe it, if Xiao Wu and I both go, you dare not go! At that time, even if the two of us are tied, we will also tie you up!"

Su Bai smiled wryly and shook his head. Of course he wouldn't believe that the two of them would really tie him up, but if Xiao San and Xiao Wu really both went to the south, would he really want to go?It's too early to say anything now, things haven't been settled yet!The second prince, Zhao Chen, may not be really rebellious!
It's a pity that Su Bai's happiness was soon shattered by reality, but within three days, the accurate news came back, the second prince Zhao Chen really turned his back!
The four southern states of Fuzhou, Yuezhou, Haizhou, and Guizhou have surrendered to the second prince Zhao Chen, and his army is at his disposal. The second prince Zhao Chen even calls himself King Chen!
Don't look at just four states, but these four states are border lands, and there are a lot of troops, there are millions of them!Therefore, the power of the second prince Zhao Chen is definitely not small!

And definitely have self-supporting capital!Anyone with a brain would have thought that the Second Prince Zhao Chen was definitely not acting on his own will, but something he had prepared for a long time, and what people didn't expect was that his power was really in the southernmost point!This time the emperor drove it to the south, which was exactly what he wanted!I don't know what the emperor Zhao Wuji in the deep palace is thinking now?

Of course, outsiders don't know what the emperor really thinks, anyway, what comes out is thunder and wrath!Then we have to send troops to quell the rebellion, even if the second prince Zhao Chen, the current King Chen, has no intention of going north, but the other party dares to stand on his own, this is a slap in the face, and he is still his own son!It is even more unacceptable to the emperor, so this must be flattened, and it must be flattened as soon as possible!

The reason for this is that apart from being angry and losing face, perhaps the emperor also knows that if the second prince Zhao Chen is really allowed to gain a firm foothold, if other princes follow suit, then the Wu Dynasty will really be in chaos!This is the kind of thing he absolutely does not want to see.

So under the wrath of the thunder, the emperor directly dispatched the Marshal of the Wu Dynasty, General Feng Zhennan, and led 150 million elite soldiers to set off immediately, heading straight to the south!Use the fastest speed to take off the head of the second prince Zhao Chen!

That's right, this is the emperor's personal order. Even his son will never tolerate this kind of thing, and he will never be soft. There is no such thing as arresting him for questioning, just beheading !It's also for deterrence.

And the Marshal of the Wu Dynasty is Xiaowu's grandfather, Ji Changfa. Although this old general is over sixty years old, he is the real pillar of the Wu Dynasty!In the previous small battles, there has never been a defeat!

My grandfather has already gone to the battlefield. As a grandson, even if he has just become the bridegroom's official, Xiao Wu can't be left behind, so he also asked to go to the battle. He went to catch the head, but the newlywed wife, Chen Yin, went out with her husband, like a husband singing a wife.

Of course Xiaosan would not be left behind, what else could Su Bai say under the gaze of the other party who seemed to be smiling but not smiling?He could only sigh, then nodded, indicating that of course he would go too!
