Chapter 229: Snare Cao Zhengchun, Ordered to Take Your Life
The second prince thought about it for a long time.
Chen Changfeng's power has grown too fast. With this great border victory, Chen Changfeng's prestige suddenly overshadowed that of himself and the third prince.
This can be seen from the fact that the emperor personally went out of the city for thirty miles to greet him, and the people in the city filled the streets to welcome him.
Now Chen Changfeng wants to build an organization similar to Luowang. If he is really allowed to do everything safely.
It's time for me and the third prince to get out of the court together.
When the time comes, even a snare probably won't be able to deal with Chen Changfeng.
Zhao Gao's suggestion revived the second prince's murderous intention that had not been shaken for some time.
"Lao Liu has many tricks and traps..." The second prince was moved, but he was worried that the people who trapped him would not do well.
Don't kill Chen Changfeng when the time comes, shake them out instead.
That would really be the end!
"Don't worry, the snare master will be clean and tidy, and he won't just deal with the enemy."
"Besides, no one around Chen Changfeng can be Luo Wang's opponent." Zhao Gao was still smiling.
This reassured the second prince a lot.
The second prince knew the horror of the net, and there were many masters among it, most of whom were unparalleled martial arts wizards.
He is more than ten times stronger than those reckless men in the army.
Just like the seemingly dying Zhao Gao in front of him, he only needs one finger to take his own life.
Moreover, the trap is so well organized that once the killer is defeated, he will immediately kill himself.
Hate your enemies and hate yourself even more.
"Then please leave it to Mr. Zhao." The second prince smiled.
…
Zhong Ling didn't sleep all night.
She was worried that Chen Changfeng would not rescue Qisha.
Although Zhong Ling could understand it, she felt unhappy when she thought that Qisha, who treated her like her father, was taken away and could die at any time.
Zhong Ling got up before dawn. She wanted to ask Chen Changfeng about his decision, but she was stopped at the door of the palace.
Zhong Ling did not force his way in, but chose to stand at the door and wait.
"You're here so early?" Chen Changfeng's voice came from behind.
This made Zhong Ling a little confused.
She thought Chen Changfeng was still sleeping in the palace, but she didn't expect that Chen Changfeng came from behind.
Covered in morning mist, it was obvious that he had just come back from outside.
"You go have something to eat first, we will set off later." Chen Changfeng left a message and walked into the palace.
Zhong Ling was extremely happy and grateful for Chen Changfeng's behavior.
After a simple meal, the two left from the East Palace without any accompanying persons, which made Zhong Ling hesitate again.
Chen Changfeng didn't even ask himself where Qisha was taken.
"Prince, don't we take someone with us?"
"That eunuch is so tight." Zhong Ling was worried.
There are only two of them, so they will definitely not be a match for any eunuch.
If she had known this earlier, she would not have come to Chen Changfeng for help.
"Where did Qisha go when he was caught?" Chen Changfeng did not answer Zhong Ling, but asked about the whereabouts of Qisha.
"Jingnan City, I have been following them, and I saw with my own eyes that they imprisoned my adoptive father in a house in Jingnan City, and then sent many people to guard him," Zhong Ling said quickly.
Chen Changfeng said nothing.
Even the Seven Killers were no match for the eunuch. Zhong Ling followed him all the way and was not discovered by the eunuch?
Chen Changfeng didn't believe it.
Probably the person who set up the trap wanted to use the Seven Kills to lure him into the bait.
However, he only returned to the capital yesterday. If this trap was set by the second prince in advance, Chen Changfeng felt that it was unlikely.
Could it be that the people in the trap also want to deal with me?
"Okay, let's go there right away." Chen Changfeng nodded and didn't even ask any more questions.
Jingnan City is more than 400 miles away from the capital and borders Nanjun. It must have taken at least two or three days.
…
The news of Chen Changfeng's departure from Beijing soon became known.
The emperor felt strange.
I just returned to Beijing yesterday, why did I go out again today?
I am also planning to ask Chen Changfeng about the war on the front line. Why did someone run out of the capital in the first place?
Also confused was Yao Xiaoren.
He also wanted to talk to Chen Changfeng about the imperial examination. The imperial examination was about to take place, and many places might not be perfect.
I was going to discuss the details with Chen Changfeng, but he ran away.
What's even more annoying is that his daughter came to his yard early in the morning and said that she liked Chen Changfeng.
But Yao Xiaoren almost fainted on the spot.
No one knew why Chen Changfeng left the capital, but the second prince had an unconcealable smile on his face when he learned the news.
As expected by Zhao Gao, Chen Changfeng really went to rescue Qisha, and he went alone.
This made the second prince extremely happy.
Now he doesn't feel any discomfort in being locked up for a month. When the time comes, as long as he hears the news of Chen Changfeng's death, even if he is locked up for an extra month, it won't matter to him.
…
Jingnan City is more than four hundred miles away from the capital.
After a day of running, Chen Changfeng inevitably felt a little sleepy.
He didn't have any rest last night, and now he was really sleepy. He got off his horse and ate something, then leaned against a big tree and fell asleep.
Fortunately it is spring now and the nights are not that cold.
Zhong Ling felt a little unhappy. She now really regretted telling Chen Changfeng about her adoptive father.
At the same time, I was also grateful that my adoptive father had a friend like Chen Changfeng.
But she didn't understand why Chen Changfeng didn't bring any of his subordinates. If she really met that powerful eunuch, she would definitely not be able to protect Chen Changfeng.
Zhong Ling was on guard and didn't know when he fell asleep leaning against the tree trunk.
Early the next morning, the two of them continued on the road without stopping along the way, but continued to rest at night.
By the evening of the third day, the two of them had arrived less than fifty miles away from Jingnan City.
At this moment, the sky was getting dark. The two of them reined in their horses and dismounted. They would arrive at Jingnan City tomorrow.
Zhong Ling couldn't wait any longer.
She also thought that she would take advantage of the night to travel, so that the gates of Jingnan City would be opened tomorrow morning, so that she could enter the city as soon as possible.
"Prince, should we continue on our way? We are only fifty miles away from Jingnan City. We can arrive in a few hours." Zhong Ling squatted by the bonfire and asked Chen Changfeng in a low voice.
Chen Changfeng did not answer, looked around, and then took two steps back towards the bonfire.
Zhong Ling didn't know why.
Looking into the distance, they saw a figure running towards them like a ghost in the distance.
"Be careful!" Zhong Ling shouted, taking out the shotgun Chen Changfeng had given her before.
He suddenly pulled the trigger at the figure.
After the loud noise, Zhong Ling vomited blood and flew out, falling heavily to the ground.
"Little girl, you don't know whether to live or die." A cold voice sounded. Chen Changfeng's face darkened, and he could clearly see the appearance of the person coming.
The eunuch with a clean face and no beard!
"Chen Changfeng, our family has been waiting for you here for a long time." Cao Zhengchun suppressed the coldness on his face and looked at Chen Changfeng with a smile.
"Who are you?" Chen Changfeng pretended to be surprised, already holding the second weapon that Master Xu gave him yesterday in his hand.
"Our family has trapped Cao Zhengchun, and we have been ordered to take your life." Cao Zhengchun was not worried at all that Chen Changfeng knew his origins.
With his methods, he would definitely not let Chen Changfeng leave alive.
"Cao Zhengchun in the net? You saved Li Fengxian too, right?" Chen Changfeng's face turned gloomy.
Just from the momentum, he could already feel an invisible pressure.
Li Fengxian indeed seemed vulnerable in front of Cao Zhengchun.
"That's right, I didn't want to kill you that day, but I received the news yesterday and asked our family to kill you." Cao Zhengchun continued to smile.
Chen Changfeng's eyes were slightly cold. He still didn't know what Qisha's current situation was.
