Chapter 143

Returning to Beijing this time not only hindered the emperor's eyes, but also became a serious worry for many princes.

The princes are not young anymore, and there are not a few people competing for the position of the crown prince, each with its own faction and many cronies.

The return of King Zhanjiang was like throwing a boulder into a small lake, and the water splashed all over, leaving only a thin layer of mist on the bottom of the lake.

King Zhanjiang has 30 Raozhou soldiers and horses in his hands. Now if any prince can win him over, then it can be said that the position of the crown prince is firmly in his hands.

However, King Zhanjiang doesn't like wine, he doesn't like soft and hard, and always keeps a distance from the princes and draws a clear line.

The princes couldn't win over, and they didn't dare to use any hard methods, so they could only express their intention to win over from time to time.

The princes did not dare to offend, and treated them with courtesy, which caused a lot of estrangement in the hearts of the princes who supported them.

The ability of those ministers to stay until now was originally the help of Emperor Yuanning when he was fighting for the throne. At the beginning, he had a lot of advice and advice on the assassination and death of the old Zhanjiang King, and the supporter of the fourth prince faction, Prime Minister Zuo Yuntun, was indispensable.

Yun Tun saw that he was the biggest help in the court behind the fourth prince, but since the fourth prince came back from fighting King Zhanjiang, he had put his mind on Chu Yunxiao, the king of Zhanjiang, and his attitude towards himself was not as good as before.

Even though Chu Yunxiao's attitude towards the fourth prince was very bad, the fourth prince still didn't intend to kill him. When he saw Chu Yunxiao, he could only swallow his breath, really holding his breath.

Since it can't be won over, then others will also want to win over it, and if they can't get it, they will be destroyed!
Yun Tun conspired in front of the fourth prince for a long time before the fourth prince agreed that the last Zhanjiang Palace was the beginning of the confrontation between the Fourth Prince and Zhanjiang Palace.

This time Emperor Yuanning announced that King Zhanjiang and Concubine Zhanjiang would enter the palace, which was to bring up the old story again, to test whether Chu Yunxiao had any resentment and disobedience.

The palace banquet didn't end until Xu hour, and the sky was already full of stars when they came out of the palace.

Not long after leaving the palace gate, Xue Yan felt a murderous aura circulating in the air.

"Master, there's movement," Sui Yan said in a low voice.

Chu Yunxiao's coquettish pupils flickered sharply, and her thin lips parted slightly, "Wait, do it as soon as you come out, don't keep alive."

After all, he hugged the beauty in his arms and continued to tease, the air around the carriage seemed to become thick, making it difficult to breathe.

Sure enough, the carriage was less than a cup of tea away, and a group of men in black jumped out from the shadows, without saying a word, they went straight to surround the carriage where King Zhanjiang was.

Xue Yan's long sword was out of its sheath, and the aura around him suddenly changed suddenly. The fierce murderous intent made the hearts of the killers around him beat a little faster.

After a few strikes, two assassins were decapitated, and the rest of the assassins suddenly turned red-eyed, and the attack became more and more fierce.

After several fights, the area around the carriage was covered in blood red, "Master, everything has been dealt with."

"Leave two people to check the identity of the visitor, and the rest continue to hide and return to the palace." Chu Yunxiao's voice was bloodthirsty.

The carriage continued to drive to the palace, and the place where the fight had just been fought had returned to the deep silence of the night, as if the fight just now was just an illusion, and the faint smell of blood in the air reminded passers-by of what happened here!
The carriage turned around an alley, and the bright starlight shone palely on the long alley, casting the shadow of the elongated wall, making the alley even darker.
