Volume 1: Red Moon Rising Chapter 72: Pursuit of King An
The emperor was mysterious. Yang Jiong wanted to ask again, but Wang Chuyang had stopped talking. At this time, an old servant came in and reported to the emperor: "Your Majesty, King An has escaped with his whole family." This old servant was Uncle Wang.
Wang Bo jumped up from his chair and said: "Okay, I know he didn't dare to come to the palace, but he ran very fast. Father, please quickly send troops to capture Anlao Gou - Uncle Huang."
Wang Bodao: "According to the spies' report, An Dynasty has not shown up since he returned home after the meeting. The spy who was monitoring the house felt something was wrong, so he entered Prince An's palace and found that the building was empty."
"The spies found no results in the palace. Farmers outside the city reported that they saw a large number of carriages heading south."
"After careful search, we found a secret passage leading outside the city in Prince An's Mansion. The exit of the secret passage is where the farmer reported it."
"Another spy monitoring Xuantian Temple reported that Sima Changfeng and several of his close disciples left the city yesterday. At that time, they used the excuse of going to the south for a wander. He probably fled south to join King An. Please ask your Majesty to judge
.”
The emperor looked at Yang Jiong and said: "I want to send the prince to lead the troops to capture King An, but King An is surrounded by masters of the heaven and human realm, and there are also many innate realms. Mr. Yang happens to be going south, can you help the prince? Come on, go.
Take ten pieces of jade of five colors and give them to Yang Zhuangshi."
Yang Jiong thought to himself: "If I don't have the emperor's help when I go south, it's really hard to find a place like Babura. If King An only has Sima Changfeng, a master of the heaven and human realm, it will be a piece of cake for me."
He responded: "The prince and I are like brothers and have become brothers for a long time. It is my honor to be able to help him."
The palace maid who took the jade came back soon. There were only about twenty pieces of jade on the tray, with five colors of gold, yellow, blue, red and green.
The emperor glanced at the tray and said displeasedly: "I asked you to take ten yuan for each item, why do you only take these?"
The palace maid knelt down in horror and said: "Your Majesty, all the five-color jade stones in the warehouse have been brought, and they are less than ten yuan each."
The emperor glanced at Wang Bo doubtfully. Wang Bo's eyes flickered and he did not dare to look directly at the emperor. He whispered: "Father, when I went out to play, I brought dozens of pieces of that kind of jade. I thought it was very valuable.
As a result, I went to a stall and couldn't get a piece of jade or a tael of silver to sell it, so I lost it all."
"You bastard, these jade stones have been passed down to hundreds of families.
Although it is not in good condition, it is of great commemorative significance. Find it wherever you throw it. If a piece is missing, I will break one of your legs."
With a sad face, Wang Bo responded, "I'll take someone to find the child right away," and then pulled Xiao Cui away.
The palace maid brought the jade stones to Yang Jiong, and he felt excited. With the help of these jade stones, his mind cultivation could advance by leaps and bounds.
I heard from the emperor that hundreds of years ago, jade was more colorful and more beautiful. At that time, the vitality of heaven and earth should have been richer. After hundreds of years, the vitality has been lost, and the color has become so worn.
Yang Jiong happily put away the jade, and looked up to see the emperor's expression that was half-smiling but not smiling. He knew that the monkey was in a hurry to collect the jade just now, so he smiled and said: "I mainly use these five-color jade stones to treat diseases, and also to assist in practicing martial arts. The fragrance is fragrant.
Yi is pregnant, the jade may help her calm down, thank you for the gift, Your Majesty."
After coming out of Yinghua Hall, Yang Jiong and Zhao Xiangyi were led directly to the square outside the palace. The prince was already ready to go, with twenty innate masters standing behind him, and at the end was a row of acquired generals. They just waited for them to leave the city and lead the troops before heading south.
.
Wang Bo received the military talisman and led 20 innate masters and dozens of acquired masters. He led an army of 20,000 imperial guards and chased southward in a mighty manner. The imperial guards had a strict appearance, and the solemn atmosphere of killing wherever they passed was shocking.
The imperial city had a total of 25,000 imperial guards. The emperor loved his son so much that he sent 20,000 to Wang Bo.
Along the way, spies reported the news of Prince An. After chasing for three hours, they caught up with Prince An's family carriage.
Twenty thousand troops and twenty innate masters surrounded more than thirty carriages in the middle. The people in Prince An's Mansion knelt on the ground tremblingly, losing their fighting spirit. Several bloody corpses showed that they had briefly resisted.
These family members and guards were part of King An's gecko tail-cutting plan. During the court meeting yesterday, he didn't know that the matter had been exposed. Only when Sima Changfeng received a message this morning did he know that his plan had been exposed and the incident was revealed.
Although the current emperor is kind, he is secretly planning his brother's throne. No matter how kind the emperor is, he will not be merciful in this regard.
After the morning court, the emperor did not leave him behind. The first thing he did when he returned home was to inform his family to pack up his belongings and flee south. He was so frightened that he did not dare to stay for a moment longer. After leaving Phoenix City, he got on the carriage and disappeared.
He escaped first, and his family and guards were ordered to take the car south after lunch. By this time, he had already run away for two hours.
Surrounded by innate masters, Wang Bo walked up to a group of kneeling people. A tall, beautiful woman with a haggard face stood out among the crowd.
He walked straight towards the woman. The person kneeling on the ground looked up at him and moved to both sides to make way for a passage.
He walked up to the woman, stretched out his hand, and said softly: "Dandian, follow me out." The woman glanced at him and burst into tears, but her body remained still. She was wearing an emerald green dress, swaying in the wind.
of a green lotus.
Wang Bo shouted again: "Diandian."
Wang nodded and raised his head, stretched out his slender hands tremblingly, and his hazy tearful eyes made people feel even more compassionate.
Wang Bo took her hand, pulled her up, and then led her out. Wang Diandian turned around frequently and looked at the group of people kneeling on the ground. Among those people were her mother, aunts, sisters, and nephews.
Sons and nieces.
Wang Bo said as he walked: "Among the dozen of you brothers and sisters, you are the only one who likes to be with me since you were a child. I held your hand through your childhood, young man. This time Uncle An is planning a rebellion, I believe you will not be involved.
.”
Wang Diandian followed him, just like being dragged to play by him for more than ten years from a child to a girl. The more he walked, the more natural he was, and there was no longer any hesitation at the beginning.
When the prince walked away, Uncle Wang ordered the soldiers around him: "Kill them all, leaving no one behind."
The soldiers marched forward, and the people kneeling on the ground in the encirclement began to cry. Someone shouted: "Prince, spare your life, Miss Diandian, help me, I don't know anything."
Wang Diandian's body trembled, and he knelt down softly and begged: "Brother Prince, my mother, aunt, and several sisters. They are all innocent, can you spare them?"
Wang Bo said to Uncle Wang: "Send someone to fetch Aunt Xue." Uncle Wang took the order and left.
Wang Diandian said anxiously: "Brother Prince, and Aunt Bing, and Lu'er, and Qianqian, and..."
Wang Bo interrupted her and said: "Little sister, although my brother is the commander of the army, I can only save you and Aunt Xue, but there is nothing I can do about the others. This is an order personally given by the father.
