Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 1669

I don’t know whose resentment condensed into frost and dew, but Yongchun City, which rarely sees snow, actually started to snow lightly.

Although it was a light snow, the courtyard was gradually covered with a layer of white, making the cold garden seem even colder and the former lord of Southern Yan look even more desolate.

A rich fragrance wafted over, and the drowsy Murong Chen suddenly became alert.

This is... this is my favorite taste of braised lamb leg!
Days of worry had almost made him lose his appetite, but at this moment, his appetite was suddenly awakened.

Murong Chen swallowed hard.

Xueer couldn't let me go after all.

The braised lamb leg was brought over and placed on the dirt ground in front of him.

Murong Chen hurried over to get it, but found that the pot of braised lamb legs was just out of his reach.

The black iron chain around his neck was getting tighter and tighter. He was still half a hand's distance away from the pot of braised lamb leg, but he couldn't reach it no matter what.

Murong Chen was so anxious that he felt a little flustered. He licked his lips and found a straw stick beside him.

However, the straw stick was too short and too weak, and the basin refused to come over.

Several big dogs were already scared by his beating. When they smelled the aroma of meat, they drooled all over the floor and didn't dare to come over.

He just hid in the corner, looking at the pot of meat and crying.

Murong Chen tried his best but still failed. He lay helplessly on the ground like a downtrodden king of beasts.

A big dog couldn't help it and ran over and bit the lamb leg.

The others were not to be outdone and rushed over to share the leg of lamb.

"Go away, go away, that's the leg of lamb Xue'er gave me!"

Murong Chen poked the butts of several big dogs with a straw stick, but the big dogs were only concerned with eating and ignored everyone.

"Hahahaha, this is truly the most interesting scene I have ever seen."

"Xue'er!"

Murong Chen looked up suddenly.

"You finally come to see me again!"

"Yeah, this time I've been waiting has been so boring. If I hadn't come to see you beasts, I really wouldn't know what to do."

"Xue'er, why are you so stubborn?
Today is the Sanyuan Festival of your Chu State.

On such a grand day, you want to come and see me, right?"

"shut up!"

Princess Yingxue stepped forward and slapped him: "You are just a beast, are you worthy of it?"

After the fight, he laughed again: “Didn’t you ask me why I came here?

Well, I just want to tell you that your last days are coming."

"You want to kill me?"

Murong Chen felt unbelievable: "Are you really willing to kill me?"

Princess Yingxue laughed loudly: "You don't think that I didn't kill you the first time because I still have feelings for you.

You are just a toy for me to play with when I am bored, just like those dogs!"

Murong Chen raised his head and said earnestly: "Xue'er, you can't kill me, you just occupied Yongchun City, you can't hide it for too long.

Once my eldest brother and his men find out, they will attack the city. How can you resist them since your forces are so much smaller than yours?

If you stay with me, I will marry you as my concubine. This time I will protect you in a completely different way than before. Believe me!"

Princess Yingxue kicked him to the ground and said, "Shut up! When did I ask you to marry me or protect me?

This princess is here to watch the vicious dogs fighting over food, to see the fun, not to listen to your nonsense!"

"Xue'er, you really can't hold on for much longer!" "Shut up! Shut up! I told you to shut up!"

After several slaps in the face, Princess Yingxue finally calmed down after seeing the bright red palm prints.

"Murong Chen, do you think that I can't see what you can see?
Occupying Yongchun City is indeed of no use, but I still have my brother Zhou Jing.

Brother Zhou Jing has been planning for me. It won’t be long before we can capture six cities in a row. With Yongchun City as the seventh city, the State of Chu can use this as the foundation to restore its country.

You are right, I can't kill you.

After all, when I get married to Brother Zhou Jing, I need a dog to cheer me up."

Murong Chen became excited: "Xue'er, what did you say?
How could you possibly marry him? You and I are in love with each other!"

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

A series of slapping sounds rang out in the yard until Princess Yingxue's hands were tired.

"Mutual affection?
Being in love with you is the biggest joke of my life!"

These were the last words left by Princess Yingxue. After she finished speaking, she left surrounded by her attendants.

I don’t know what happened this year, but Yongchun City, which never snows, had snow for several days in a row.

The snow fell heavier and heavier, and everything in the world was covered in white.

If it were in the past, Princess Yingxue would have been extremely happy, jumping up and down and pulling Xiaoju and Xiaotao to make a snowman, and then tricking her brother the emperor over and throwing snowballs into his neck to scare him.

Then call the mother over, and the whole family will eat hot pot together.

When I was young, I naively said, "I heard that the capital of Yan State is freezing cold, and the snow every winter is like a thick quilt, with everything covered in silver. I really want to go and see it!"

Now think about it, Yan State is a place I never want to set foot in in my life!
Today, I am the only one eating the hot pot, drinking wine and eating meat slices alone.

Princess Yingxue picked up a piece of boiled mutton, put it on the plate, and dipped it in the sauce again and again, as if she didn't want to eat it but was just killing time.

"Princess, it's bad, it's bad, the Yan army is coming to attack the city!"

Xiang Yingxue, who was eating hot pot, did not look surprised at all and continued to dip her food into the sauce over and over again.

The voice was very calm: "Call Zi Yan and Zhang Yong over, and act according to the plan together!"

"Yes, Your Highness Princess!"

General Zhenyuan didn't take the small city of Yongchun seriously.

However, it still felt that the attack was a bit easy, as if someone had been waiting for them.

When entering the city, General Zhenyuan waved his hand, signaling the army to slow down.

After all, the Princess of Chu is treacherous, and she doesn’t know what’s waiting for her ahead.

They moved forward towards the Chu Palace cautiously, and to their surprise, there was not a single ambush along the way.

It was not until he arrived at the wall of the Chu Palace that General Zhenyuan realized what Princess Yingxue was up to.

It was freezing cold and snowflakes were flying.

A petite woman with beautiful features, dressed in red, sat under the palace wall, drinking wine nonchalantly.

Kneeling in front of her were hundreds of Yan nobles, civil officials and military officers who came to attend the wedding of King Chen, as well as the generals, soldiers and their families who had served under King Chen in the past.

Each of these people had a package filled with gunpowder hanging in front of him, connected by a fuse.

Princess Yingxue was not afraid when facing the Yan army.

He picked up the wine cup, poured himself a small cup of plum wine, raised it up, and drank it in one gulp.

After savoring it for a long time, he raised his head and looked straight at General Zhenyuan.

"Zhenyuan, long time no see!

Why are you rushing here in such a hurry? Are you missing your son?"
