Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 351 The Prince Consort’s Matter

Her heart beat violently uncontrollably.

As if losing the strongest support, there was a feeling of emptiness all over the body.

"Where is Zhou Jing being held now?"

"Go back to your highness, Princess. Zhou Jing... escaped while being escorted to Yongchun City. Now the entire Chu Kingdom is looking for him."

Want him?
Brother Zhou Jing is dedicated to serving the country and has become a wanted criminal?
Xiang Yingxue slumped back on the chair, her eyes slightly red.

No wonder he would go to the Yan Army to rescue me alone.

It turns out that he can't even protect himself...

and many more!

She suddenly thought of something.

Brother Zhou Jing escaped on the way to Yongchun City?

That means he was caught here.

Based on brother Zhou Jing's friendship for him, once he arrives in Mucheng, he will immediately mobilize troops to rescue him.

But he didn't.

In other words, he was most likely imprisoned as soon as he arrived in Mucheng on the day of the battle between Chu and Yan.

The general abandoned the city, even if the news was immediately sent to the palace, and the father ordered the arrest immediately, it would still take at least more than a month...

Princess Yingxue glanced at Jiang Han who was kneeling on the ground, and she had a vague judgment about him in her heart.

She calmed down: "There must be something hidden about General Zhou. When I return to the palace, I will meet my father and ask him to re-investigate the matter."

After saying that, she coughed a few times weakly: "However, I am still a little weak. Please ask the doctors to do their best. Once I get better, I will return to the palace."

"Yes, my minister takes orders!"

Jiang Han slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

The governor had already given the secret order from the palace and arranged the manpower when Princess Yingxue was in coma.

When the princess makes the slightest move, she will be imprisoned on the spot.

That is the eldest princess of the great Chu Kingdom!
Although he had long followed the governor and chose to side with the second prince Xiang Wenyao.

However, no matter how brave you are, you will still feel uneasy when doing the following things.

Fortunately, Princess Yingxue just stayed here to recuperate, and had no plans to return to the palace immediately, nor did she want to investigate Zhou Jing.

Then let her do it first.

If you have no choice, use the extraordinary measures the governor mentioned.Jiang Han quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to exit.

Princess Yingxue suddenly stopped him: "Wait a minute, what is the name of the warrior who let me enter the city?"

"Back to Her Majesty the Princess."

Jiang Hanfu knelt down again: "There are many soldiers guarding the city, and I... I don't know, so I'll go and ask."

Xiang Yingxue nodded: "He is here to announce that those who are kind to me will be personally rewarded by me."

"Yes, the minister obeys the order!"

Not long after Jiang Han left, the maid from the Prefect's Mansion brought in a dark-skinned Chu soldier.

When the soldier saw the princess, he was so excited that he bowed down and worshiped her.

"General Zhang Yong meets Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

However, Princess Yingxue seemed not to recognize him at all, and there was no emotion on her face.

"The two countries were at war, and the city gate of Mucheng was closed. I shot the Yingxue Palace token onto the tower outside the city gate. You were the first to recognize the token and asked the guards to let me enter the city."

She took out a box of pearls from the treasures stored in the prefect's palace: "If you are kind to me, I will reward you with this box of pearls."

Zhang Yong was extremely surprised.

It was himself who followed General Zhou Jing to the border town to capture King Chen for the princess. On the day of the battle between the two armies, he was also the one who went to find General Zhou on the princess's orders.

Why does the princess look like she doesn't recognize herself at all?

You must know that the reason why you appeared at the city gate was because General Zhou asked you to mix with ordinary soldiers and patrol the city tower every day before fleeing.

The purpose is to ensure that once the princess returns, she can enter the city as soon as possible.

He had a lot to say to the princess, about General Zhou Jing and the Anguo Army.

But he didn't dare to interrupt when the princess didn't ask a question, and he didn't dare to raise his head to peek at the princess' face.

He just lowered his head anxiously and waited silently for the princess' inquiry.

Even if the [-] Anguo troops stayed in Mucheng, the princess didn't care.

The princess must be concerned about General Anguo's affairs.

However, unexpectedly, Xiang Yingxue didn't ask anything.

He just handed the pearl box to Xiaojue and dismissed him like a servant asking for a reward.
