Chapter 58: Leaving the capital, falsely testing the king's will, determined to die, and persuaded to respond to the teacher's call
Three days later, after a banquet hosted by Prince Jing, Wan Feitong and his wife finally left Prince Jing's Mansion in fear.
Fortunately, what happened in Prince Ping's Mansion did not happen again in Prince Jing's Mansion. Under Liu Shaonan's vicious gaze, Wan Feitong felt like a thorn in his back. He knew Baiyunshi's methods. The farther away he was, the more at ease he felt.
They hurried out of Prince Jing's Mansion, and they didn't stay any longer. One more day in the capital would make their heads even more unstable. Finally, what needed to be done was done. Prince Jing didn't seem to care about Du Cheng's death.
No matter how suspicious he was, he didn't say much about Prince Ping's position.
The two of them galloped on their horses, but along the way they saw large groups of officers and soldiers heading south.
"What does this mean?"
Wan Feitong felt very strange.
Commander Qi was the one who led the troops and had some experience. He said softly: "Mr. Wan, it seems that Prince Jing is about to take action."
"What do you mean, Commander Qi, that the imperial court will no longer use the road to Xiangyang?"
Wan Feitong responded quickly.
Commander Qi did not answer immediately and frowned in thought.
Could it be that King Jing saw that his lord had no intention of fighting between the north and the south, so he had to change his strategy and give up marching from Xiangyang? But this is so difficult!
But when he looked up, he saw groups of officers and soldiers, with bright armor and distinct swords and halberds, which seemed to tell him that Prince Jing's actions were directed towards the south of the Yangtze River.
"Mr. Wan, soldiers are very crafty. Judging from this, King Jing must have gathered his army in Hefei, waiting for an opportunity to cross south and approach Jinling! However, I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't tell where it is.
"
After saying that, he could only shake his head. Obviously, he also had no sense of crisis regarding Prince Ping's current situation.
In his opinion, as long as King Ping doesn't let go, Xiangyang City is so strong that it will be difficult for the imperial army to break through it. Unless there is a flanking attack from the north and the south, it is not impossible for King Ping to stand on his own in the middle. But between the north and the south, the situation is like fire and water, so how can it be possible?
Join forces to take Xiangyang? Besides, on the surface, the imperial court is also following Wu Ming's example!
After much deliberation, the two of them came to only one conclusion: the imperial court had given up marching from Xiangyang, and the opportunity for Prince Ping had come.
Behind them, there were two groups of people who had also disguised themselves and set off quietly.
This first group was sent by Liu Shaonan, the former northern lotus envoys of Xingyue Dao, Chun Lei and Chunting. After the Taishan Martial Arts Conference, Xingyue Dao fell into pieces, but Chun Ting had always admired Liu Shaonan, so he eventually joined the Loyalty Alliance. Chun Lei and
She had a deep love for her brother and sister, so they followed her. The two of them brought a few subordinates and followed Wan Feitong closely.
This second group is naturally the disciples of the Tianshan Sect.
That day, after returning, Gu Chengfeng called all the other disciples over.
"Children, the opportunity to avenge our brothers has come! I just went to Prince Jing's Mansion to receive my order. I want to personally lead people to Xiangyang City to take the head of Prince Ping. I don't know who among you is willing to go with me!"
As soon as these words came out, except for Yun Yi, the other disciples were agitated. The thirty-six heroes of Tianshan are brothers and sisters. If you don't avenge this, you are not a gentleman.
"I go!"
"I go!"
For a time, all the disciples were enthusiastic.
Gu Chengfeng looked at it and was slightly surprised by Yun Yi's performance. This sixth disciple always acted calmly, which made him feel reassured. But this time he was so calm. Could it be that he was afraid?
He pressed his hands down and looked directly at Yun Yi.
"Yi'er, what do you think?"
When Yun Yi saw his master asking, he quickly bowed, but his expression remained solemn.
"Master, it is natural for me to avenge my brothers. I will not hesitate to go through fire and water! However, I feel that it is unwise to be used as a spearhead by Prince Jing's palace!"
The events of that day were vivid in his mind, and the demeanor of Gui Yunzheng and others was also vivid in his mind. The Tianshan Sect, which was once famous all over the world, has now become a pawn in the struggle for royal power. This is something he has not been able to let go of these days.
