Chapter 398 This kid really dares to kill!
"Eighteenth brother, do you want to rely on the guards in your hands to disobey the orders of the emperor?"
on the street.
The second prince Chu Ming stared at Chu Ning with a sneer on his face: "Do you know what the consequences of doing this are?"
Chu Ming raised his lips slightly, revealing a hint of amusement: "Second brother, when did I ever say I would disobey my father's orders?"
"is it?"
The Second Prince pointed at Ran Ming and said coldly, "Then why did he stop me from taking you back?"
Chu Ning laughed and waved his hand to let Ran Ming leave: "Second brother, you are wrongly accusing them. As my guards, they must follow me wherever I go. Otherwise, how can they be called guards?
It's just to go to the palace, I will go with you."
After saying that, Chu Ning rode his horse towards the palace.
Ran Ming immediately ordered: "Escort His Highness to the palace!"
The second prince narrowed his eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed across them.
He wanted to deliberately stir up trouble, let Chu Ning cause trouble, and take the opportunity to use his father's token to order the imperial guards to kill Chu Ning's guards.
I didn’t expect Chu Ning to be so cunning and actually agreed to go to the palace!
Forget it, let’s talk about it in the palace. Zhao Tianling will never let this go!
While deep in thought, the Second Prince turned his horse around, and all the imperial guards also turned around.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Chu Ning suddenly stopped his horse, turned around and chuckled, "Oh, by the way, second brother, I and the palace guards are going to the palace, and there is no one to bury the bodies here.
Since the Imperial Guards are here, how about asking them to collect the bodies?"
The Second Prince was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened: "Eighteenth brother, what are you talking about? Do you want the Imperial Guards to collect your body?"
The Imperial Guards are there to protect the palace and the emperor. How could they do such a thing?
But Chu Ning shrugged and said, "I'm free anyway. Since I'm here, I might as well clean up the scene to avoid corpses everywhere and make people think that my Kyoto City is hell on earth.
Besides, you are responsible for receiving the Crown Prince of Zhao. Now that something has happened, you are also responsible. If you don’t bury these bodies properly, the censors may report you.”
The second prince's face changed drastically.
The Censor has a good relationship with the Fourth Prince and the Eighth Prince. If they get the chance, they certainly wouldn't mind reporting to the Emperor.
Although he was extremely reluctant, the Second Prince still gritted his teeth and gave the order: "Leave ten people to escort Eighteenth Brother to the palace, and the rest of you stay to bury the body."
Upon hearing this, the imperial guards looked at each other in bewilderment.
They were the imperial guards, brave warriors carefully selected from thousands, yet now they had fallen to the point of collecting the bodies of the enemy's cavalry.
For a time, the imperial guards complained constantly.
The second prince's status in their hearts plummeted.
Some people even made up their minds not to work with the Second Prince on errands anymore.
Listening to everyone's words, the Second Prince felt very upset, but he had no other way to deal with it, so he could only yell:
"What are you all standing there for? Why don't you go collect the bodies?"
The imperial guards did not dare to hesitate any longer and immediately went forward to collect the bodies.
At this moment, Zhao Tianling also reacted. Looking at Chu Ning and others who were about to leave, he said with red eyes and gritted teeth:
"How dare you kill so many of my people in the street? I will never give up until I have avenged you!"
Chu Ning, who was about to leave, raised his lips slightly, glanced at Zhao Tianling, and laughed softly: "Why, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Zhao wants to file a complaint?
But why do I remember that we agreed at the beginning that no matter who wins or loses this battle, it must not be announced?
Now that you have lost and are unwilling to accept the defeat, are you going to report this to my father?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around him began to mock him.
"He is the Crown Prince of Zhao and he has no tolerance at all!"
"He just said something about his word being his bond, but now it seems that his words cannot be trusted!"
"I never thought that the Crown Prince of Zhao would be such an untrustworthy person!"
"If this gets out, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his position as the crown prince, right?"
Zhao Tianling heard every word that everyone said. Zhao Tianling, who was already furious, looked as pale as liver.
"Okay, okay, you guys just wait for me, wait!"
Zhao Tianling, who was furious, did not dare to stay any longer. He uttered a harsh word and left in disgrace with the remaining dozen people.
The Minister of Rites Wang Wenguang heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this and quickly chased after them with his men from the Ministry of Rites.
No matter what, Zhao Tianling came here as an envoy after all, not to mention he is the crown prince of the Great Zhao, so he must be settled well.
At this time, the second prince Chu Ming said indifferently: "Eighteenth brother, it's getting late, don't make father wait anxiously."
Chu Ning laughed: "Let's go!"
"drive!"
The war horses galloped straight towards the palace.
The second prince looked at Chu Ning's departing back, a sneer appearing on his face.
When you get to the palace, you'll be in trouble.
He killed so many Zhao cavalrymen, offended the Zhao prince, and wanted to destroy the marriage. How could my father deal with this matter easily?
Thinking that Chu Ning was about to be punished, the Second Prince felt very happy and immediately rode his horse and followed with his men.
Three quarters of an hour later, Yingwu Palace.
"See Father!"
Chu Ning and the second prince bowed and saluted at the same time.
The emperor nodded slightly, glanced at the two of them, and finally fixed his gaze on Chu Ning.
"You still remember to come to see me? I heard that you took the initiative to fight with the Crown Prince of Zhao. Is this true?"
Chu Ning was about to speak when the second prince answered first: "Father, when I went over there, the two sides were still fighting fiercely, and only a dozen of Zhao's 300 cavalrymen were left.
The Crown Prince of Zhao was very angry and even threatened that he would not give up easily! "
After that, he pointed at Chu Ning and said righteously, "Eighteenth brother, regardless of his status as the crown prince of Zhao, killed hundreds of Zhao cavalrymen in the street. The impact is too bad. I ask the emperor to punish him severely!
Otherwise, Zhao will definitely use this as an excuse to join forces with the Great Yan Dynasty to attack our dynasty!"
He was so indignant, as if he himself had been defeated by Chu Ning.
But at this moment the emperor was stunned.
Three hundred cavalrymen were killed and only a dozen were left?
This kid really dares to kill!
"So many people died, why didn't you stop them!"
Instead of immediately accusing Chu Ning, the emperor stared at the second prince and angrily shouted, "I asked you to bring so many imperial guards with you, why didn't you stop him?"
Judging from the time, even if the two sides were fighting at that time, the battle should not have been over when the imperial guards arrived.
If the imperial guards had taken action, Zhao would not have lost so many people.
But the second prince had anticipated this and quickly explained, "Father, when I led my men over there, there were indeed many Zhao cavalrymen still resisting.
I wanted to stop this, but my Eighteenth Brother blocked my way and even deliberately delayed the attack until all the Zhao cavalry were killed. Then my Eighteenth Brother stopped the attack. "
After he finished speaking, the second prince's eyes turned cold, and he pointed at Chu Ning and said, "If you want to blame someone for this, blame it on my eighteenth brother. It was all caused by my eighteenth brother!
This matter must be severely punished and the Eighteenth Brother must give an explanation to the Crown Prince of Zhao, otherwise the marriage will be difficult!"
All the sins are put on Chu Ning!
