The confidant also felt that Zhao Chen was just a dozen people, and could he make a big fuss when facing the situation of a hundred of them being double-teamed?
What's more, among the dozen Zhao Chen's people, there were still several who were not capable at all.
Zhao Chen would never dare to confront so many of him.
Looking at the soldiers of Zhechong Mansion who were looking forward to search for the traces of Zhao Chen and others, a faint look of pride appeared on the faces of the confidants.
As long as you win Zhao Chen today, Wei Ting will definitely look at him with admiration.
It is no problem to rise to the top in the future.
But before the joy in the heart of the confidant's heart was even more than a moment, a scream came from the depths of the woods ahead.
"What happened?"
"God, there are traps."
"Run quickly."
Several panicked voices made the soldiers of Zhechong Mansion look like frightened birds.
Before the confidant could even react, the soldiers of the dozens of Zhe Chong Mansion ran back to their side with amazement.
"Sir... there is a trap in front... there is a snare in front." The soldiers and their confidants shouted.
The confidant's expression was slightly dark.
Zhao Chen and others have just entered the mountains and forests, so they have time to set up traps.
This is clearly a trap set by prey hunting in the mountains.
These people are really afraid of death.
"That's a trap for hunters in the mountains, not something Zhao Chen and the others set up."
"How long have they been in the mountains and forests? How could they have set up traps so quickly?"
"Please think about it more with your pig brain?" The confidant was very annoyed.
With such a delay, Zhao Chen and the dozen or so people would not have to go somewhere later.
He was scolded by his close confidants, and the soldiers of Zhechong Mansion dared not speak out.
Wei Ting handed over the command power to his confidants in front of him. If he wanted to deal with someone, wouldn't that be easy?
Everyone bowed their heads and dared not answer.
The confidant looked around and waved his hand, saying, "Go to block the way to the city everywhere, no matter what, you can't let them enter the city."
...
"Sir, what should we do now?" In the forest, looking at the retreating soldiers of the Zhechong Mansion, Li Ke asked Zhao Chen softly.
Li Ke really wanted to rush out and kill all the soldiers of Zhechong Mansion who ran into the mountains here.
But Fang Yizhi and others were not good at all.
Once they really fight, they may be hurt.
So Li Ke's idea was rejected by Zhao Chen from the beginning.
At this moment, watching the soldiers of the Zhechong Mansion ahead walking out of the woods, Li Ke also wanted to know Zhao Chen’s next plan.
"They will definitely block the way into the city after leaving the mountains and forests."
"Yingzhou City is a territory that Wei Ting has managed for ten years. If we enter the city, we don't know who is his eyeliner."
"It is no longer possible to return to Yingzhou City at this moment. Li Ke, you and Changsun Chong go to Dingzhou City and let the Dingzhou Governor bring the soldiers of Dingzhou Zhechong Prefecture over here."
"By the way, tell Xue Wanche the news that we already know Li Yuanji's whereabouts." Zhao Chen and Li Ke explained.
Li Ke was a little stunned.
He could still understand when he went to Dingzhou City to move reinforcements.
But this made Xue Wanche know about Li Yuanji. What is this saying?
"Sir, Xue Wanche is Li Yuanji's former subordinate. If he knew that we had found Li Yuanji's whereabouts."
"Wouldn't you want to interfere?" Li Ke and Zhao Chen reminded.
He always felt that Zhao Chen's idea was a bit strange.
At least no normal person should do this!
"Just do it." Zhao Chen waved his hand and did not explain to Li Ke.
...
Lujiang City.
The emperor and Wei Zheng entered the city.
The residence of the Prince of Lujiang is still easy to inquire about.
In less than half an hour, the two arrived outside the Prince's Mansion of Lujiang County.
It is said that it is the Prince's Mansion of Lujiang County, but it is actually not much bigger than ordinary houses.
As the prince who was demoted here, local officials would not curry favor with Li Chengqian.
He even used the excuse to suppress Li Chengqian because he was worried about being jealous of ministers in the court, emperors and celebrities in front of him, such as Zhao Chen.
Of course, this is the local officials' own thoughts.
But the officialdom has always been like this. No matter who it is, once it loses power, life will definitely not be easy.
"Shopkeeper, I'll report it?" Wei Zheng turned around and looked at the emperor and asked.
Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Wei Zheng couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Li Chengqian's bad life was also his own fault.
Even without Zhao Chen, no one could save him if he was seeking death like Li Chengqian.
At this moment, Wei Zheng was worried that the emperor felt compassion and opened his arms to Li Chengqian.
"No need, just go in like this." The emperor waved his hand, and there was no sign of worry and joy on his face.
Wei Zheng looked at the Lujiang County Prince's Mansion in front of him, and a hint of uneasiness in his heart.
When the two entered the house, only a few deserted servants sat in the yard basking in the sun.
There were leaves scattered in the place, and no one moved at all.
"Where is Li Chengqian?" The emperor glanced at the surrounding environment and asked a servant of the front-line citizen about Li Chengqian's whereabouts.
"Who are you? How dare you call our prince's name?" The servant looked a little ugly.
Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with the emperor's direct call to Li Chengqian's name.
"Rareless, let the prince of Lujiang come out to meet." Wei Zheng shouted with his servant.
Although he didn't want the emperor to meet Li Chengqian.
But this servant of the Lujiang County Prince's Mansion was afraid that he would not be crazy, and even the emperor dared to scold him.
Wei Zheng's old face was extremely majestic. His scolding at this moment shocked the servants in the prince's mansion.
The servant obviously knew that the two people in front of him were not easy to mess with.
He quickly bowed and said, "Two, my prince has gone out of the city. I guess he won't go back to his house today."
"It's better for you to come back tomorrow."
"Out of the city?"
"Where did he go?" the emperor frowned.
As soon as they came in from outside the city, Li Chengqian left the city?
What's wrong, do you have to visit Li Chengqian for a few more times?
The emperor was also worried about the situation on Zhao Chen's side.
It is not that simple to wipe out the bandits in Tianzhu Mountain.
You can't waste too much time here.
Moreover, if everything goes well, they will continue to look for Li Yuanji's traces.
Come again tomorrow, the emperor doesn't have the intention.
"In a small village ten miles east of the city, His Highness of the Prince received a letter yesterday and only passed by today." The servant couldn't figure out the origin of the two, so he did not dare to offend him, so he told them about Li Chengqian's whereabouts.
"Outside the city? I received a letter?" The emperor muttered the servant's words.
But I was curious.
Who wrote a letter to Li Chengqian and could let Li Chengqian go out of the city to meet?
"Shopkeeper, this matter is probably not simple. I am afraid that the person the prince of Lujiang has had a certain identity." The two left the prince of Lujiang, and Wei Zheng and the emperor whispered.
No one is familiar with Li Chengqian in this place of Lujiang.
So no one can let Li Chengqian go out of the city to meet him in person.
And now, Li Chengqian has really gone.
Then who would be the person he met?
The emperor knew what Wei Zheng meant just now.
The person who can let Li Chengqian go out of the city to meet will definitely not be a simple person.
"Xuancheng, you said, could the person Chengqian went out of the city to meet is Yuan Ji?" The emperor suddenly said this inexplicably.
