Liu Zhi, who instantly understood what he meant, broke down and laughed, "Haha... What a great move to remove the firepower. Even the Northern Army is his left prime minister's men. I thought his hands were not that long and could not reach the military camp.
I didn’t expect that they are really capable. Not only did they place spies around my father, but they also kept a hand in the military camp. It’s a pity that my uncles, who sacrificed so much for my future, were eventually killed by the traitors.”
As Liu Zhi's confidants, they didn't know how to comfort the prince. After all, they only obeyed his orders, and there was no need for them to worry about other things.
But at this time, they must protect His Highness before they can leave the dangerous situation.
Nine days later, Liu Ju, who was defeated and fled, fled to a farmhouse. It happened that this person was also the person he had met at the beginning. He had a simple and honest personality and was a kind-hearted person. When he saw Liu Ju again, he saluted him deeply and said, "Common people see you."
I have passed His Highness the Crown Prince, and I hope His Highness will calm down. The common people have appeared in front of Your Highness in such a shabby manner."
Liu Zhi, who was already hungry, no longer cared about the red tape, and quickly raised his hand to him, "Fortunately, with your help, I was able to have some rest. When I return to the palace in the future, I will definitely repay your kindness a hundred times.
"
The friend shook his head and said, "As a common man, we only have some coarse grains to satisfy our hunger. We cannot live up to His Majesty the Crown Prince. The common people do not dare to hope for the glory and wealth in the future, let alone want them. After all, we can have a prince who does not despise his humble background."
A humble and good prince is also a blessing to the common people."
When Liu Ju saw him saying this, he felt guilty in his heart. If he could have given him some help when he first met him, he wouldn't have to work so hard at this time, and he would at least be better off. Unfortunately, it has already come to this, so what's the use of regretting it?
, the only way is to find an opportunity to make a comeback, and then repay his kindness.
Seeing his dejected appearance, his friend knew that he was from a poor family and could not help at all, so he could only sigh helplessly, "Your Highness, the common people here cannot help you. If your Highness wants to recruit troops again, you will have to find someone with money."
Maybe you can still fight back, but if you keep running away, I'm afraid the court will have changed by the time you come back."
"Nonsense..." Seeing him say this, his confidants roared angrily.
Liu Zhi glared at his confidant, and then apologized to his friend, "Please forgive him for speaking so carelessly and offending someone."
The friend waved his hand and said, "Your Highness, you don't have to be polite. What this gentleman said is absolutely true. It was indeed the common man who said the wrong thing. However, the common man couldn't help but remind His Highness that you must be careful about this matter and don't be impulsive, otherwise it will be very serious."
It’s hard to predict the consequences.”
He always felt that he had heard this before, but he didn't think of it. Instead, he frowned indifferently, and then asked people to start asking about people who could help him.
But he didn't know this behavior, which directly pushed him into the abyss of death.
Two days later, Liu Zhi did not wait for his wealthy friends. Instead, local officers and soldiers arrived and surrounded his hiding place.
Seeing this, his confidants quickly blocked the door and looked at Liu Zhi anxiously, "Your Highness, these people have been bribed by Prime Minister Zuo. We can't escape. Once we break out of the bloody path, Your Highness can leave."
"The criminals hiding inside, I warn you not to act rashly, otherwise you will shoot them with arrows." Standing in front of a group of officers and soldiers, the official with a big belly shouted forcefully.
The man standing next to him looked coldly at the thatched hut in front of him, with a look of disdain on his face, "I didn't expect that His Highness the Crown Prince, who has always been against us, would be hiding in this corner now. I don't know how he could bear it.
Come down, after all, I grew up in fine clothes and fine food, how can I endure this kind of suffering?"
The fat official who just shouted had a happy face, "If you can't bear it, you have to bear it. The prince, a dignified prince, doesn't even have a brain and dares to confront the Prime Minister. This is not just seeking death. Besides, if he had confronted the Prime Minister in the first place,
Sir, if you are better, you won't be in this situation now."
Liu Zhi, who was hiding inside, became very ugly when he heard what was said outside. He rushed out regardless of the obstruction of his subordinates.
In order to protect his safety, his subordinates quickly followed him out.
When the man saw Liu Zhi appearing, he sneered, "You actually have the guts to come out. I thought you would stay in there forever, like a mouse, never daring to come out and face us."
Liu Ju stared at the person in front of him with red eyes and angrily scolded him, "You are nothing more than Liu Laogou's lackey. What qualifications do you have to talk to this prince?"
Seeing this, in order to please the man next to him, the fat official snorted coldly, "Nonsense, my lord is much better than a lost dog like you. Besides, you don't even have the ability to protect yourself, so what qualifications do you have to reprimand us? You are just like a prince."
I'm so stupid that I don't even have any skills."
The confidant was dissatisfied and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is an orthodox prince. That is nothing compared to that treacherous minister like Prime Minister Zuo..."
Before he could finish his words, his confidant was shot to death with a sharp sword.
Seeing his confidant leave, Liu Ju frowned uncomfortably, but he didn't know how to solve the problem. He stared at his confidant who had passed away uncomfortably.
Seeing this, the others quickly advised in a low voice, "Your Highness, they are outnumbered and powerful. You'd better avoid them. If you have the chance, just flee from here."
Liu Zhi knew that they were doing this for his own good, but looking at the few confidants left around him, Liu Zhi showed a shameful smile on his face, "Haha, I think I, Liu Zhi, am the emperor's son, and I was born to be the prince. If it weren't for the traitorous ministers in power, I would
The crown prince already holds the throne, so it will be their turn."
Seeing that he was still stubborn at this time, the man couldn't help but snorted coldly, "It doesn't matter if you are born noble. You are not our prisoner at this time. When you are brought to Kyoto City, you will definitely become the object of everyone's disgust. After all, we have raised an army."
If you are a prince and take the lead in something like rebellion, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."
Liu Zhi, who didn't want to be humiliated after being caught, sneered, "Is it difficult to convince the crowd? I am the emperor's own son. Even if he fails, it is just bad luck. There is nothing else to blame, and I will not be humiliated by you for this. Today, I
Even if you die, I will not give you any chance to humiliate me."
"don't want……"
"Your Highness..."
When the other people saw him raising the knife, they couldn't help but shout loudly.
Liu Ju regarded death as home and looked at them calmly, "Everything I have done in this life is for the common people of the world. I have never had any other selfish motives. It is a pity that there are many treacherous ministers in the future. Even with my own power, I cannot change this."
That's how it is. I can't save you in this life. I hope you can find a capable master in the next life so that you don't have to die because of this."
"Your Highness, please don't..."
As blood sprayed out, Liu Ju's body slowly fell down. Several people quickly caught him, but they could not change this fact.
