Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 352 You are my husband’s personal guard
Then, seemingly weak and tired, she slowly walked into the bed.

He asked his maid to put down the green curtain and rest alone.

Xiaoju handed the box to Zhang Yong.

While leading him out, he said meaningfully: "This is a reward from the eldest princess. You must take it carefully."

After saying that, she squeezed his palm hard.

Zhang Yong understood something instantly and glanced warily at the maids in the prefect's house.

Then, he held the pearl box tightly in his hand.

At midnight, the entire prefect's mansion was silent.

The only sounds were the rustle of the wind through the treetops and the low chirping of the blackbirds.

Several lights in Princess Yingxue's room suddenly went out.

The maids were told by Xiao Ju early in the morning that Her Royal Highness the Princess was most afraid of the dark, and she would light several palace lanterns in the distance even when sleeping.

Afraid of disturbing the eldest princess's sleep, they all went to relight the lights.

However, another cool breeze passed by.

Several maids who were keeping watch fell to the ground silently one after another.

"You came?"

Princess Yingxue's calm voice came from the gauze curtain.

Zhang Yong knelt down and worshiped outside the curtain: "I will follow the general and Her Royal Highness the Princess to the death. Princess, please do whatever you tell me."

Xiang Yingxue was wearing a white woven brocade robe, pushed open the curtain and got out of bed.

She walked up to him and helped him up personally.

"Your Highness can't!"

Zhang Yong panicked, but still knelt on the ground: "General... I can't bear it..." "You are burdened with the rise and fall of Chu, so you can certainly bear it."

"The rise and fall of Chu?"

Zhang Yong was stunned and looked at Princess Yingxue in confusion.

When he met her bright and beautiful eyes, his face suddenly felt as hot as fire, and he lowered his head in bewilderment.

Xiang Yingxue pulled him up and motioned for him to sit down.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's General Zhou Jing who was led by Prefect Jiang Han to capture him."

"Exactly, Her Royal Highness the Princess is wise!"

Xiang Yingxue smiled faintly: "You are my husband's personal guard. To me, you are a close relative in my house. Do you still want to be so polite between you and me?"

"The last general...the last general is telling the truth."

Zhang Yong's face was still hot, but the blush was not visible on his dark skin.

Xiang Yingxue did not chat with him anymore, but went directly to the topic.

"What happened to General Zhou on the day of the battle between Yan and Chu?"

"Back to Her Majesty the Princess."

Zhang Yong looked serious.

"That day, you led the troops to the city gate and sent the general to lead people to find the general. You happened to hear someone fighting three alleys away from the general's mansion. The general went over and saw that there were actually a few guards carrying them on their backs. The general who has been unconscious for a long time is fighting to the death with the assassin."

Zhang Yong clenched his fists, as if he was still trapped in the urgency of the moment.

"The last general and the accompanying Anguo Army rescued the general and several of his bodyguards who were already exhausted. Only then did they discover that the general had been given a non-fatal but extremely high dose of Mongolian sweat medicine. However, they had not had time to get the antidote. , the Yan army attacked. The general had no choice but to flee with the unconscious general to Mucheng together with dozens of Anguo troops. I thought that when I got to Mucheng, I would use the [-] elite troops left by you and the general to go there. Rescue. Who would have thought that after finally entering the city, the governor Zhou Kang and the prefect Jiang Han imprisoned General Zhou Jing."

Zhang Yong sighed deeply: "Fortunately, the general was injured in his leg at that time, so he asked the brothers to take the general one step ahead, so that he could avoid disaster. The next day, when they went to Yongchun City to escort the general, the general He changed his clothes and sneaked into the soldiers, and released the general in the dead of night. The general said that there was a huge conspiracy behind this, and he could not stay in Chu for the time being, so he asked the general to stay in Mucheng, hide the identity of An Guojun, and sneak into the garrison. Among the city soldiers, we are waiting for your return."
