The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 339

King Wei, who was on his way to Jinling, received the news that Zhao Yao was safe and sound, and the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

Yu Hai saw King Wei smiling and asked hurriedly: "Your Highness, have you found His Highness the Tenth Prince?"

King Wei smiled and said, "I found it. The tenth brother is safe and sound."

Yu Hai said happily: "It's great, it's really great." During this period, he has been worried about the safety of His Highness Tenth Prince. Now that he finally knows that His Highness Tenth Prince is safe, he can finally sleep well. .

"Our people are still a step too late. If Shi Di is not smart, by the time our people find him, I am afraid that Shi Di will have been thrown into the river to feed the fishes." Although Zhao Yao was fine, King Wei did something to his people. Very dissatisfied with ability.

"Your Highness, you mean His Highness Tenth escaped on his own and it was not our people who rescued His Highness Tenth?"

King Wei nodded: "Well, the tenth brother pretended to be poisoned and deceived Li Jue and the others."

Yu Hai exclaimed: "His Royal Highness, did you deceive that Li Jue?"

"Didn't Tenth Brother take antidote pills before?"

"So that's it." Yu Hai suddenly realized, still very surprised, "Your Highness the Tenth Prince actually deceived that Li Jue!" His Highness the Tenth Prince was naive at best, and simply stupid at worst.Li Jue of Jinling was a troublemaker and a ruthless person who played tricks on the prince and the Duke of Zhen. It is incredible that His Highness the Tenth Prince actually deceived him!
"Li Jue underestimated the tenth brother." King Wei was both distressed and proud of Zhao Yao's escape. "The tenth brother is not really stupid, he just doesn't want to get involved with us."

"Li Jue will be very angry when he finds out that he was deceived by His Highness Tenth Prince." Yu Hai first gloated that Li Jue was deceived by Zhao Yao. Then he thought of Li Jue's vicious temperament and methods, and couldn't help but worry about Zhao Yao. "Your Highness, the Tenth Highness is in danger. If Li Jue finds him again, he will definitely kill the Tenth Highness."

King Wei narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes dark and cold: "Li Jue will not find his tenth brother."

"Our people will definitely be able to protect His Highness Tenth this time." The people from Jinling were a step too late to save His Highness Tenth, which already made His Highness very dissatisfied.If His Highness Ten cannot be protected this time and His Highness is captured by Li Jue, His Highness will never spare them.

"If they can't protect the tenth brother, come and see him."

Yu Hai was frightened by the intimidating aura emanating from King Wei.He quickly changed the subject and asked: "Your Highness, do you want to inform King Chu now that His Highness the Tenth Prince is safe?"

"How to inform him?" When King Chu was mentioned, King Wei raised his lips and mocked unceremoniously, "He is now a mud Buddha crossing the river and cannot save himself."

"Your Highness, didn't the Crown Prince and King Dai find the real King of Chu?" Yu Hai admired King Chu's ability to escape. "Maybe the King of Chu will arrive in Pengcheng soon."

"With Lao Si's ability, he will also hide his identity and traces when he arrives in Pengcheng." The prince's people are all a bunch of losers, and they are no match for Lao Si.It's very difficult for them to catch the fourth child.

"Your Highness, what about Li Jue? He is not a loser." Li Jue is extremely smart and very resourceful.The prince has ordered Li Jue to send people to find the king of Chu.

"Li Jue has some abilities, but he is too conceited. He thinks he has everyone under his control, including his father." Originally, King Wei had some appreciation for Li Jue.This man is extremely intelligent, has deep knowledge, has cunning methods, and has a vicious temper.However, Li Jue actually kidnapped Zhao Yao without authorization and wanted to kill Zhao Yao, which violated King Wei's bottom line.King Wei now hates him very much. "In my eyes, he is just a clown."

"Your Highness, why didn't the Emperor send someone to rescue His Highness Ten?" He didn't believe that the Emperor didn't know about His Highness Ten's arrest. "A tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds. No matter how much your Majesty doesn't love His Highness, you can't just die without saving him."

When this matter was mentioned, King Wei became very angry.He didn't care whether the emperor loved him or not, but he did care that the emperor didn't care about his tenth brother's life or death.

"In my father's heart, neither I nor the tenth brother are dispensable. He won't worry about us. Even if the tenth brother and I die, he won't even frown."

"The Emperor is so ruthless." Yu Hai felt aggrieved for King Wei and Zhao Yao, "His Royal Highness is still a child, not yet an adult, yet the Emperor is so cruel..."

"We sons are all chess pieces in the eyes of our father. No, my tenth brother and I are not even chess pieces." King Wei said with a sneer on his face.

"Your Highness..." Yu Hai felt very sorry for King Wei.

"I don't care about this, I'm just worried about the tenth brother." King Wei felt heartbroken when he thought of Zhao Yao, "Although the tenth brother pretends not to care on the surface, he still hopes to get his father's love in his heart. This time he was caught, and his father did not send anyone to rescue him, so he must have been very sad."

"Your Highness, this is actually a good idea. Let His Highness the Tenth Prince see clearly the true face of the Emperor and no longer have hope for the Emperor." Yu Hai felt sad and wanted to cry when he thought of His Highness Tenth, but he held back the look of not letting himself cry. , feeling very pity in my heart.

"The tenth brother thinks very well of my father and of us, and he doesn't want to think about things in the worst way..." King Wei sighed slightly, "I'm afraid the tenth brother feels very uncomfortable."

"Your Highness, His Highness Tenth will be very happy when he sees you." Yu Hai comforted King Wei, "The Emperor does not love His Highness Tenth, but you love His Highness Tenth. With your love, His Highness Tenth will not be sad."

King Wei thought of Zhao Yao's dependence on him, and a little smile appeared in his eyes.

"When we get to Jinling, I will take him to eat delicious food. With delicious food, he will definitely be happy."

Yu Hai hurriedly reminded King Wei: "Your Highness, you should write a letter to His Highness Tenth as soon as possible to comfort him. I think His Highness Tenth will be very happy to receive your letter."

"Yes, I will quickly write a letter to my tenth brother."

At this time, the King of Chu, who was on his way to Pengcheng, was busy escaping from the swords of the Crown Prince and King Dai, while still worrying about Zhao Yao's safety.

"How many days until Pengcheng?" It was not convenient for him to write to Lao Ba now, asking for news about his tenth brother.When he arrived in Pengcheng, it was convenient for him to write to Lao Ba.

Wei Mian replied: "Your Highness, with the current journey, we can reach Pengcheng in three days." King Chu wanted to reach Pengcheng as quickly as possible, but they could not go any faster.This is already their fastest speed.

Wei Mian knew that what King Chu was most worried about was not himself, but Zhao Yao, who had disappeared in Jinling.

"Your Highness, His Majesty the Tenth Prince has his own destiny, he will be fine."

"Tenth brother is not very smart."

"Your Highness, King Wei is not an easy man. With his methods, his people may have found His Highness the Tenth Prince."

Wei Mian's words comforted King Chu.The King of Chu felt that Zhao Yao was not very smart and might have sold him without even knowing it.However, he believed in the scheming King Wei.With King Wei's ability and means, he might actually find Zhao Yao.

"I hope the eighth brother really finds the tenth brother."

"Your Highness, you should worry more about yourself than Your Highness Tenth." Not long ago, the man sent by His Highness as a cover was killed by the prince and the acting king's assassin.I don’t know how many times this has happened. "I am worried that the prince's people are waiting for you in Pengcheng."

They can hide on the way now, pretending to be real, so that the prince and the king's people can't find them, but when they get to Pengcheng, they can't hide like they are now.

"When you arrive in Pengcheng, the prince's people will dig deep to find you." The prince will never let His Highness leave Pengcheng alive.

"Pengcheng is not the prince's world. He has not reached the point where he can cover the sky with one hand in Pengcheng." King Chu was not worried that it would be more dangerous than now in Pengcheng. "We will not be truly safe until we reach Pengcheng."

After hearing this, Wei Mian looked shocked and puzzled: "Ah, will we be safe when we reach Pengcheng?"

King Chu said meaningfully: "The most dangerous place is the safest place."

Seeing that King Chu was so confident, Wei Mian guessed that his highness must have done something in advance.

"Your Highness, it's getting late. You should rest quickly."

King Chu nodded lightly: "You should also rest early." In order to have a better journey tomorrow, King Chu went to rest "obediently".

The prince who was far away in the capital was in no mood to sleep.When he learned that the people they sent had not killed King Chu yet, he became angry several times and smashed many valuable vases.

"A bunch of losers!" The prince's face was distorted with anger, and his eyes were full of sinister birds of prey, "How can the King of Chu escape to heaven and earth? They are a bunch of losers!"

Lu Cong saw that His Highness the Crown Prince's face was livid with anger, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Your Highness, please calm down, don't make yourself angry."

The prince was so angry that his eyes felt dizzy.His body staggered slightly, and then he fell onto the chair.

Seeing this, Lu Cong exclaimed: "Your Highness the Crown Prince!" He quickly reached out and stroked the Crown Prince's chest to help him calm down.

The prince took a while to recover, but his face was still very ugly.

"As long as the King of Chu dies, the crown prince will be doomed."

"Your Highness, didn't Duke Zhen Guo say that when the King of Chu arrives in Pengcheng, he will only die. Why are you so angry and worried?"

"Don't worry... We will never let King Chu reach Pengcheng alive..." The prince has always had an ominous premonition in his heart. King Chu... if he allows King Chu to reach Pengcheng alive, the consequences will be disastrous.

"The Duke of Zhen will never let King Chu live, so don't worry."

"I hope my uncle can send someone to get rid of King Chu as soon as possible." The prince felt very uneasy when he thought that if King Chu came back alive from Pengcheng in the future, he, the prince, would be deposed. "How long does it take for the eighth brother to arrive in Aurous Hill?"

"There are still six or seven days."

The prince said: "I can really feel at ease when my eighth brother arrives in Jinling."

"Your Highness, please relax, King Chu will definitely die!"

With Lu Cong's comfort, the prince felt better.However, he was filled with hatred when he thought that the emperor was the culprit of all this.

"Father, he is really cruel."

"Your Highness, the Emperor doesn't even care about the life or death of His Royal Highness, his biological son..." Lu Cong did not dare to say the next words.

"A tiger can't eat its own children. I didn't expect that my father would be so cruel." The prince said, his eyes stern, "Since my father is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust."
