Chapter 174

Zhang Xiuru, who was sitting in the carriage behind, irritably raised the curtain again and again and kept looking at the carriage in front. Seeing that the third watch had already sounded, he ordered the boy following the carriage, "You Go and remind the fifth prince a few words, saying that it’s getting late and it’s best for the fifth prince to go back and rest early.”

The boy took the order, quickly caught up with the carriage in front, and repeated what Zhang Xiuru said.

After a moment, Dongfang Yuebai's voice was heard coming from the carriage, "Tell Mr. Zhang that His Highness Five and I are talking about the new oiran in Zuiyue Tower. The night is long and I am not in a hurry to sleep."

Fifth Prince, "..."

Even with his eyes closed, he could picture Zhang Xiuru's eyes widening in anger.

"You clearly know that Mr. Zhang has misunderstood you, so why are you still angry with him?" the fifth prince said helplessly.

Dongfang Yuebai lazily leaned back on the sofa, raised his eyebrows and said, "The Fifth Highness invited me out late at night to talk about things, but he insisted on keeping Zhang Xiuru by his side. Isn't it because he hoped to use Zhang Xiuru's attitude towards me to attract more people?" People mistakenly believe that His Highness the Fifth is really joking with me about romance and not doing his job properly?"

The fifth prince felt guilty and coughed after being talked about in his heart, "The flowers are becoming more and more charming. Isn't this what you taught me?"

The moon in the east is white but smiling and silent.

"Speaking of the brothel... I heard that Su Chengying was bloodbathed in the brothel tonight?" the fifth prince asked curiously.

Dongfang Yuebai didn't think about hiding anything, so he picked out some innocuous things and said them, but he didn't say who the culprit was.

The fifth prince was stunned for a long time before murmuring, "I didn't expect that a woman like Su Chengying would be so affectionate and righteous, and would do this for a slave."

Dongfang Yuebai cast a sidelong glance at the Fifth Prince, "Your Highness called me out today just to praise my wife?"

The fifth prince hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, "It stands to reason that the prosperous Tang Dynasty is so accommodating, and his father is so competitive, so he naturally wants to pursue him while the heat is hot, even if he doesn't try to seize the throne of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop. I would also secretly send troops to attack and test Yiliu, but right now my father is standing still..."

Dongfang Yuebai waved his hand impatiently, "What exactly do His Highnesses want to say?"

"I have received news that the Liao Jin Kingdom has repeatedly sent troops to start wars recently, and even intends to attack the small border countries near the Sheng Tang Dynasty. I think based on my father's considerations, if the Liao Jin Kingdom and the Sheng Tang Dynasty were to fight, my father should send troops to support them. yes."

Liao and Jin are naturally barbaric, arrogant and arrogant, and have never made good alliances with any country. In just ten years, they have developed from a small patch on the map to a scale that people have to fear today. They are afraid, and Shengtang is closely connected with Xiliang. Once Shengtang is really captured, Xiliang will be next.

"So the Fifth Highness is thinking that if a fight really breaks out and the Emperor sends people to join the battle, the Fifth Highness wants to personally lead the troops there?" Dongfang Yuebai put it bluntly.

The fifth prince nodded and said, "The battlefield is the best time to make meritorious deeds. Even if I don't fight, the second emperor brother will fight for it. I don't want to miss this opportunity."

Dongfang Yuebai raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of death?"

The fifth prince was stunned, and then smiled bitterly, "In today's troubled times, which prosperous world is not won by fighting? I have learned so many years of things since I was a child. If I don't even have the courage to go to the battlefield, I can only talk about war on paper. In the future, Even if you really sit down... I'm afraid it won't be convincing..."

Suddenly a cold light flashed in Dongfang Yuebai's eyes. Before the fifth prince could react, he pushed the fifth prince aside.

The fifth prince was stunned by the impact. When he came to his senses in shock, he saw a sharp long sword breaking through the window.

Immediately afterwards, the boy outside was heard shouting, "There is an assassin!"

It was Zhang Xiuru who was sitting in the carriage behind. Hearing the exclamation, he quickly looked out and saw that seven or eight men in black had already surrounded the carriage in which the fifth prince and Dongfang Yuebai were riding.

Zhang Xiuru shouted anxiously to the boy next to him, "What are you still doing? Tell the Shangjing Mansion immediately! Go back to the Mansion and ask the guards to come and protect the fifth prince! Run to the one closest to you first!"

The boy was probably frightened, but he was frozen in place and didn't move.Zhang Xiuru was so anxious that he simply jumped off the carriage, pulled the boy over, and ran towards the Shangjing Mansion first.

At the same time, the carriage in front had been captured.

Whether it was the driver driving the carriage or the few boys following the carriage, they all fell in a pool of blood.

The Fifth Prince and Dongfang Yuebai joined forces to fight against the long swords that kept thrusting in from the outside. They tried to break free from the carriage several times, but were blocked by the sword blades from outside again and again.

In such a situation, it is obvious that you want to catch a turtle in a jar!

The fifth prince is not as advanced in martial arts as Dongfang Yuebai. He can handle it one on one, but now he is gradually unable to cope with the double team of three people.

Just when he was taking a breath, he saw a blade slashing towards him. The fifth prince could not dodge and could only let the sharp blade blow towards him with cold air.

A folding fan suddenly flew towards the head of the fifth prince.

The force was so great that the blade that struck the fifth prince was knocked to the ground.

The fifth prince took advantage of the situation and looked in the direction of Dongfang Yuebai, smiled weakly, and was about to say thank you, but his expression suddenly changed. He subconsciously got up and wanted to fly towards Dongfang Yuebai, but it was too late, so he could only watch. Watching the blade shining coldly in the night, slashing hard towards Dongfang Yuebai's back...

"Yuebai——!"

Shangjing Guogong Mansion, Jiaziyuan.

Su Chengying, who was sitting sleepless on the Arhat couch, suddenly felt a thrill.

A feeling of panic that he had never experienced before instantly flowed through his body.

Su Chengying subconsciously looked out the window, but the yard was quiet, without any sound.

"Jinhan." She called softly, and then she realized that even her voice was a little hoarse.

Jin Han's voice soon sounded outside the door, "Miss."

Su Chengying took a sip of herbal tea and suppressed the dryness in her throat, "Has the young master come back?"

Jin Han said truthfully, "No."

Su Chengying's hand holding the tea cup paused, then she picked up the large cloak on the side and put it on her body, then lifted it up and went out.

The cold wind hit my face, hurting like a knife.

Jin Han said in surprise, "It's windy at night, why did the lady come out?"

Su Cheng Ying gathered the cloak around her body and said, "I can't sleep anyway, so I might as well come out and get some fresh air."

Jin Han knew that her young lady always had opinions and ideas. Since persuasion was useless, she simply followed Su Chengying and walked around the house with Su Chengying.

"Jinhan, I need you to follow Su Zhenzhen secretly in the next few days. I think Su Zhenzhen will secretly meet Qin Zhangyuan soon. At that time, you will secretly trap them together and tell them secretly. The fifth prince." When Su Chengying mentioned Su Zhenzhen now, she didn't even want to call her sister, which showed the disgust and hatred in her heart.
