Chapter 315: A Grasshopper on a Rope
Upon hearing this, the prince's face instantly darkened, and his sharp eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Is the Imperial Master threatening this prince?"
Zhangsun Hu naturally noticed the killing intent in the prince's eyes, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he smiled and said: "I don't dare, but don't forget, prince, we are grasshoppers on the same rope. If the eldest grandson's family arrives, the prince loses his eldest grandson."
With the support of my family, can I still stand firm?"
As Changsun Hu said, the Changsun family knows too many secrets about the prince, so Changsun Hu is not worried at all that the prince will sit idly by.
Now the eldest son's family has been firmly bound to the prince, and they both prosper and lose.
The prince's face was very ugly, and his heart was even more angry. Although he knew that Changsun Hu was threatening, the prince could do nothing.
After hesitating for a while, the emperor finally chose to compromise: "Okay, I will let my people take action, but I cannot guarantee whether Changsun Yan can be rescued!"
Hearing this, Zhang Sunxiao suddenly laughed and quickly said, "Thank you very much, Prince!"
"Don't thank me in a hurry. I'll help you save Changsun Yan. Are your Changsun family just doing nothing?" the prince said coldly.
Changsunxiao immediately understood what the prince meant and asked, "I wonder what the prince wants our eldest grandson family to do?"
The prince snorted coldly and said: "I can't guarantee that Changsun Yan will be rescued. If we fail, we will still be doomed. Therefore, we must solve the problem from the root. I would like to trouble the Imperial Preceptor to kill Yu Hao directly!
As long as Yu Hao dies, no one will dare to chase us!"
Changsun Xiao was stunned for a moment, then looked at Changsun Hu, intending to ask for Changsun Hu's opinion.
Changsun Hu smiled slightly, nodded and said: "No problem, I will handle this matter personally. In addition to killing Yu Hao, I will also kill Zhu An and clear the way for the prince."
The prince's brows finally relaxed, a smile appeared on his face, and he cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, Imperial Master. You two will wait for the good news about this prince!"
After saying that, the prince turned around and left the Changsun Mansion.
At this time, a guard was waiting for the prince outside the Changsun Mansion. When he saw the prince coming out, he quickly stepped forward to salute.
"This subordinate has met the prince."
The prince glanced at the guard and said: "Immediately send a message to You Hu, asking him to put down what he is doing immediately, go to the mine in Chuanzhou to mobilize troops, intercept and kill the Jianguo Temple sergeant returning to Beijing, and rescue Changsun Yan
!”
"I obey!" The guard quickly got on his horse and went straight to the city gate.
Looking at the guard's back, the prince sighed helplessly.
This You Hu is Ma Long's senior brother. He was sent by the prince to assassinate Princess Jianyang and captured Princess Hailing for his enjoyment.
But You Hu has been away for almost ten days, and he still hasn't sent a message back, and he doesn't know whether he succeeded or not. He has been coveting Princess Hailing's body for a long time.
But at this moment, the prince could not care about Princess Hailing. The rescue of Changsun Yan was of great importance, and he had to find someone he could trust to do it.
And You Hu is Ma Long's senior brother, so he is naturally reliable. The prince can only rest assured if he is allowed to do this.
…
On the other side, at the border of Minzhou, on the official road, a carriage was slowly passing by.
In the carriage were Princess Jianyang and Princess Hailing who had escaped from Wudu City.
Along the way, Princess Jianyang and Princess Hailing did suffer a lot in order to evade the arrests of Jianguo Temple, but fortunately, they were clever enough and finally managed to escape to Minzhou.
"Minzhou is ahead, and Shi Meng will surely greet us on the road." Princess Hailing said, pointing in the direction of Minzhou.
Before escaping from Wudu City, Princess Hailing wrote a letter to Shi Meng. After so many days, Shi Meng must have received it.
With Shi Meng's character, even though he knew that the two of them had escaped from Wudu City, he would probably accept them with great loyalty.
Princess Jianyang nodded, looking forward to it in her heart.
Although it was the first time for Princess Jianyang to leave Wudu City, she saw many things that she had never seen before, which really opened her eyes.
In addition, now that he has escaped the arrest of Jianguo Temple, the worries he had before have naturally disappeared.
Just when the two were excited about successfully arriving in Minzhou, a group of men in black were watching their carriage on the hillside not far away. The leader was You Hu.
"Brother Hu, this is close to the border of Minzhou. Bandits often appear in Minzhou, and the official roads are usually patrolled by officers and soldiers. Do we really want to take action here?" asked a man in black.
"What else? The master next to the princess has wasted too much of our time before. Now that we have finally got rid of that master, we naturally have to do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, the prince will be in a hurry, and you and I can't bear it!" You
Tiger said angrily.
"What's more, it is precisely because there are more rogue bandits in Minzhou that if we take action here, the court will think it is rogue bandits and will not trace it to the prince."
The reason why You Hu didn't attack Princess Jianyang and Princess Hailing for so long was because there was an expert who had been following them.
According to observations, this expert should be responsible for secretly protecting Princess Hailing, but Princess Hailing seems not to know the existence of this expert at all.
It was precisely because this master made You Hu so afraid that You Hu never took action.
No, two hours ago at the inn, You Hu finally found an opportunity and poisoned the master to death.
Once the master dies, Princess Jianyang and Princess Hailing are just two little girls with no power, so it's a good opportunity to take action!
Seeing the carriage slowly approaching, You Hu gave an order and immediately rushed out with the man in black.
When the driver driving the carriage saw more than ten men in black rushing down the hillside, he thought they were bandits and didn't even want the carriage, so he turned around and ran away.
Princess Jianyang was still wondering why the carriage suddenly stopped, and the next second she was pulled out of the carriage by a big hand.
Princess Jianyang and Princess Hailing were thrown off the carriage violently, and they were all thrown to pieces.
The two of them had never seen such a battle before. They immediately looked frightened and huddled together, trembling continuously.
"You...who are you?"
"Who are they? Can't you tell, of course we are bandits! Hehehehe, these two little ladies are quite smart, it would be a good idea to take them back and make them the wives of the villagers!" A man in black said with a bad smile.
As soon as these words came out, Princess Hailing's beauty suddenly turned pale. As the princess of Minzhou, she naturally knew that there were often rogue bandits from the sea in the borders of Minzhou.
It's just that I have never met Princess Hailing, so I didn't take it to heart. But I didn't expect that I would be so unlucky this time. I met a bandit as soon as I arrived in Minzhou.
And the one that gives Princess Hailing the most headache is Princess Jianyang!
Princess Jianyang was a rich man, so she couldn't imagine what would happen if she fell into the hands of rogue bandits.
But this is the border of Minzhou after all. Although Princess Hailing was very scared, she still had the courage to say: "You are really brave. Do you know who I am? I am the daughter of King Zhenhai.
