If Wei Yuande rode a horse, he would have arrived at Lingzhou in a few days, so he had to find a way to set up a checkpoint at the pass immediately.
"Jin Yi." Ji Xun called to the door, and Lin Yi hurriedly came in.
"What's the matter, Your Highness?"
Ji Xun put down his chopsticks, took a skewer and inserted a piece of sweet apple into his mouth. After eating, he said, "Take people to the pass and try to block the prince Wei Yuande."
"The carriages and horses of the Prince's envoy have not yet entered Luozhou territory. It will take at least half a month to reach Lingzhou. Is it too early to set up a card now?" Lin Yi said.
"Wei Yuande is very afraid of me because he is afraid of death. He will not be in the envoy team." Ji Xun explained, his beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, "I guess he will dress up as a merchant, and there will be no less than twenty people.
You just need to send people to intercept this caravan."
"Yes, Your Highness." Lin Yi responded and was about to leave.
"Wait a minute." Ji Xun called him again, with a cautious look on his face, "According to Wei Yuande's temperament, will he just take out the Prince's Token and forcefully pass the border when he reaches the border?"
"My subordinates think this is possible." Lin Yi nodded hurriedly, "If this is really the case, then my subordinates will not be able to stop him."
Ji Xun frowned and thought for a moment, then with a nice smile on his lips, he leaned over and whispered a few words to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi nodded frequently, then took the order and left.
After Lin Yi arrived at the pass between the two countries dozens of miles outside Lingzhou City, he began to deploy manpower to check the merchants heading to Daqi.
In order to distinguish whether it was a real merchant or a fake merchant, Lin Yi asked He Jin for help. For the sake of caution, a team of more than ten merchants had to conduct detailed inspections.
Three days later in the morning, Wei Yuande and Wei Xuanyuan arrived at the pass with a group of people.
"What's going on? Why is there such a long queue?" Wei Yuande asked his entourage in confusion, looking at the endless flow of people passing through the customs in front of him.
"Your Highness, wait a moment, my subordinates will go to check." The entourage bowed respectfully and hurried forward.
"Young master, please pay attention to your words and deeds when you are away from home. Don't let anyone know your identity." Wei Xuanyuan, who was on horseback next to him, reminded him calmly.
This Wei Yuande, even though he had changed his face and clothes, he still looked aloof and condescending along the way. He did not stop his followers from opening or closing their mouths, "Your Highness," as if he was afraid that others would not know his identity. Ordinary people could see this.
His identity is extraordinary, let alone the Night King.
What a fool.
"I have my own sense of propriety, so I don't need you to talk too much." Wei Yuande replied angrily, and then scolded him coldly, "You are responsible for disguising me, and at other times keep your mouth shut.'
In my heart, this talented stranger recommended by Prime Minister Zhou was very annoying along the way. If he hadn't been needed, he would have made his head fall to the ground.
Wei Xuanyuan was helpless and could only say "Yes." and shut up honestly.
The subordinate who went to investigate soon came back and reported to Wei Yuande, "I heard that a robbery occurred some time ago, and border checkpoints were set up to track down the robbers."
Wei Yuande raised his chin proudly: "I am the prince, how can you trace the robbers to me? Go, go around to the front, reveal your identity and go through the customs directly."
"Your Highness, no." Wei Xuanyuan hurriedly stopped him, "You have changed your appearance now. Who will recognize your identity?"
"Shut up." Wei Yuande interrupted angrily, "I have the crown prince's token in my hand. Anyone who dares to stop me will be killed without mercy." After saying that, he led a dozen people on horseback and rode around the crowd to near the pass.
"Call your chief guard out." Wei Yuande said to the personnel at the pass.
The guard at the pass looked them over a few times, then went in to report them.
Soon Lin Yi came out, and Wei Yuande took out the prince's token and showed it to him, shouting orders.
"Can you recognize the Prince's token? Let us pass immediately."
Lin Yi secretly thought to himself that His Royal Highness the Night King was really a master of strategizing. He actually guessed Wei Yuande's behavior with great accuracy. He exchanged glances with He Jin, and He Jin immediately led hundreds of officials to surround Wei Yuande and his party.
.
"Get these robbers down." Lin Yi gave the order, and Wei Xuanyuan, Wei Yuande and others had official swords held on their necks.
"What do you want to do?" Wei Yuande was confused by this scene and shouted angrily, "What I have in my hand is the crown prince's token. Anyone who dares to touch me is treason~~'
However, Ji Yi didn't even look at him, "Tie him up and take him into the city."
Wei Yuande was so angry that he almost died. In his desperation, he suddenly said, "I am the prince, please let me go immediately." As he said this, he wanted to take off the goatee on his face to reveal his true appearance.
However, a rope was put directly around his neck, tying him up tightly.
Ji Yi pulled the corner of his mouth and looked at Wei Yuande coldly.
"You are a bunch of daring robbers, how dare you rob His Highness the Crown Prince, and how dare you leave the prison with the stolen Crown Prince's token."
"Put them in prison and hand them over to His Majesty the Crown Prince for his care when he arrives."
Ji Xun sent people to rob the "fake" prince's motorcade, and then used this as an excuse to set up a traffic jam at the pass to arrest the robbers. Didn't this arrest Wei Yuande, the real prince who had disguised himself and held the prince's token?
?
After Wei Yuande was arrested, he cursed all the way and repeatedly emphasized that he was the true prince, but Lin Yi didn't care about him at all. Who doesn't know that you are the true prince? You were spotted by He Jin as soon as you arrived at the pass.
"Idiot." Looking at Wei Yuande who was caught as a robber from a distance, Wei Xuanyuan couldn't help but cursed.
He was not that stupid. When Prince Wei Yuande led the people to rush to the pass, he secretly left the crowd.
The Night King is so cunning, he must be careful, and his life cannot be wasted by a fool like Wei Yuande.
Wei Yuande was imprisoned in prison for more than ten days and suffered a lot.
When the 'fake prince' and his entourage arrived in Lingzhou City, they were released. At this time, Wei Yuande was already sour and smelly, his hair was dirty, and his voice was hoarse from scolding. How could he still look like he was pampered?
And he couldn't even find a reason to take revenge. Notices saying, "Prince Road encountered a robber, the Night King sent people to arrest the robber." were posted everywhere. How else could he explain it?
All he could do was knock out his teeth, swallow his blood, and follow the false prince out of seclusion in despair.
After entering the realm of Daqi, he became bold, resumed his status as the prince, and galloped towards the capital of Daqi with his troops.
At this moment, Daqi’s capital city.
Two groups of people entered the capital, one from the east of the city and the other from the south of the city.
It was the second prince of Dali who came to the capital from the east of the city, and the prince of Hongsha who came to the south of the city. They both brought rich gifts and came to propose to marry the second princess of Daqi who had been divorced by King Ye of the Zhou Dynasty.
The entire capital was deserted, with some people rushing to the east of the city and others to the west.
It is said that both the second prince of Dali Kingdom and the crown prince of Hongsha Kingdom have the appearance of heavenly beings, and everyone wants to see their grace.
