Chapter 2: Bloodshed on the battlefield and escape from the Immortal Gate
Chapter 101 Dog bites dog
The sixth prince arrived first.
He has a man and a horse, a golden helmet and golden armor, a bright silver gun in his hand, and a military uniform. He is very powerful.
"Tianyu has met the Taiwei!"
The Sixth Prince did not dismount, but he bowed politely with clasped fists.
"Withdraw!"
Jiang Tainian had no expression on his face and said something incomprehensible.
"good!"
Your prince responded tacitly, turned his horse's head, and raised his arms in the direction of the inner city.
Jiang Shang had been paying attention to this side, and when he saw the sixth prince waving, he immediately understood, turned around and shouted:
"withdraw!"
With an order, thousands of soldiers quickly began to evacuate in an orderly manner.
At this moment, the people who had already entered the inner city came out, quickly formed their formation, and joined the retreat.
Ye Feng had excellent eyesight and had some suspicions in his mind, so he kept paying attention to those people who had evacuated from the inner city.
Sure enough, after one of the black-armored officers came out, he got on a war horse, raised his arms and shook his head.
Ye Feng already knew that Xiaoqi Camp belonged to the Sixth Prince's power. When he helped him turn his head to look at the Sixth Prince, he saw that the other man's face darkened and was full of disappointment.
"They probably don't know that the emperor is gone!"
At this moment, Jiang Meiliang turned around and whispered in Ye Feng's ear.
Ye Feng knew that Jiang Meiliang also noticed the change in the Sixth Prince's expression and turned his head to give him a clear look.
Jiang Meiliang was more than half a head shorter than Ye Feng. She had to worry about talking to his ear, so she didn't leave in time after she finished speaking.
When Ye Feng turned his head, he was actually very close, just a hair away from kissing, and both of them could feel each other's breath.
When their eyes met, Jiang Meiliang was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand like a reflex and pushed Ye Feng's head away.
They were whispering to each other very intimately, but Jiang Meiliang's push made Ye Feng even more ambiguous, which made Ye Feng feel embarrassed.
They were standing next to Jiang Tainian's horse, and he had a panoramic view of everything.
I don't know what Jiang Tainian meant, but he coughed a few times, but the cough was so fake that anyone could hear it.
Jiang Meiliang followed the sound and Jiang Tainian looked over with a tigerish face.
A blush immediately appeared on Jiang Meiliang's face. He lightly stamped his lotus feet on the ground and quickly distanced himself from Ye Feng.
"snort!"
There was nothing wrong at first, but what Jiang Meiliang did was a bit like there was no silver here. Jiang Tainian couldn't help but snorted, which made Jiang Meiliang even more embarrassed and gave Ye Feng a hard look.
Ye Feng didn't know what was going on. He was startled by Jiang Meiliang's look. Just when he wanted to say something, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of riders approached. The first person was wearing a yellow official coat. He was obviously the prince, but his outfit was a bit nondescript.
The prince stopped his mount ten meters away from the prince. His face, which was originally tense, squeezed out a smile and said:
"Hahaha, Lord Taiwei, you are here after all. Now the court is saved!"
A trace of imperceptible disgust flashed in Jiang Tainian's eyes, and he said coldly:
"Imperial City was destroyed. I had to come, but it was a step too late, which caused the royal family to be harmed and inadvertently panicked."
"There is no need for the Taiwei to blame himself. As the saying goes, it is not too late to mend the situation. Now is the time to eradicate the rebellious ministers and traitors. Please give the Taiwei an order not to let the thugs go."
The prince had been staring at the sixth prince. He didn't see Jiang Tainian's expression, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He actually said it with a commanding tone.
"In that case, please make it clear to His Highness the Crown Prince who is the rebellious official and traitor?"
Jiang Tainian asked calmly.
"The Xiaoqi battalion dared to break into the imperial city privately and besiege the inner city. Isn't this a blatant rebellion? Since the Taiwei is in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, he should quell the rebellion of King Qin. If you don't move now, when will you wait!"
The emperor said righteously.
"Haha! What the Crown Prince said is wrong. The Huben Camp, Yulin Army, and Xiaoqi Camp are the Royal Forbidden Army. They shoulder the responsibility of guarding the imperial city and are not under the control of my Taiwei Mansion.
Now that the imperial city is in chaos, it is the time when the three armies are maintaining stability. The Xiaoqi Battalion may have been ordered to guard the palace in the inner city. I don’t know why. I don’t know why His Highness described it as a rebel army. Could it be that the Crown Prince has a secret order from the Emperor?"
Jiang Tainian had been immersed in government affairs for decades, so he was very tactful. Besides, no one knew what was going on in the government. The prince actually spoke like this, which made him deeply disgusted and directly criticized him.
"I don't know that!"
The prince secretly scolded Mrs. Jiang for being cunning and cunning. Everyone knew about the struggle for the throne. The Xiaoqi camp had been besieging the city for more than a day or two, but he couldn't say this.
"Since Your Highness doesn't know, why don't you go to the palace to ask for instructions?"
Jiang Tainian was very reasonable and unforgiving, and his words were obviously very slow.
"This... this..., the Imperial City was delayed earlier, and I was about to ask my father for instructions!"
The prince was already weak, but when Jiang Tainian retorted with a few words, he immediately became confused. Except for the ten thousand grass and mud horses floating by, his words were weak and weak.
"Okay! Since the prince has already made a plan, I will leave first."
What Jiang Tainian wanted was his words. Since you, Prince, have taken over, I will run away.
It was rare for him to care about their fight for the throne. If he didn't want to find out what was going on in the imperial city, he wouldn't have led his troops to enter.
He really didn't expect that he would meet Ye Feng and Jiang Meiliang here. Based on his understanding, he knew immediately that they were probably responsible for this sudden change. At least they were also insiders.
In this case, there is no point in staying here any longer, and you may be used as a weapon, so the best thing to do now is to retreat quickly.
"Everyone is here, the front team becomes the back team, withdraw!"
Jiang Duhua was Jiang Tainian's confidant, and he was extremely good at figuring out what Jiang Tainian meant. He understood Jiang Tainian's meaning almost instantly, and immediately gave the order without waiting for the prince to beep again.
"Lieutenant, wait!"
The prince really didn't expect that Jiang Tainian would leave immediately. He was so anxious that he shouted quickly.
"Oh! I wonder what His Highness the Crown Prince's orders are!"
Jiang Tainian did not stop the team from evacuating, but turned his horse's head and asked.
"Now that the imperial city is in chaos, we need to be deterred by heavy troops. How can you withdraw your troops now?"
Seeing that Jiang Tainian had no intention of stopping the withdrawal, the prince was really anxious.
"I won't give up, and I will be in charge of the world's military. However, I am only responsible for security matters outside the imperial city. Today, the imperial city is destroyed, and I am forced to lead the army to garrison. It is a capital crime, and I will never dare to stay any longer.
All the revolutionary elements have been suppressed by me, and the imperial city is safe. I will lead the army to maintain the stability of the capital, but for the follow-up matters in the imperial city, it is better for His Royal Highness to go to the palace to ask for instructions!"
How could Jiang Tainian stay? His hatred for the royal family had reached its extreme.
He really didn't expect that the two princes, who were armed with heavy troops, would allow people to break into the imperial city and massacre their clan members wantonly. It was really chilling. Since this was the case, he didn't bother to care about it and just let the dogs bite the dogs.
