Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 289 The Palm
Yan Dashan's movements were too fast.

Before the counselor could react, more than a dozen Yan soldiers had already fallen to the ground.

This fighting power made him take several steps back and became speechless.

But Zhao Pu was unmoved. He was as calm as usual, without blinking his eyes from beginning to end.

Zhu Xiuyuan felt reassured, raised the corner of his mouth, casually cupped his hand to Zhao Pu, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the fourth prince, the country of Yan is a long way away, so there is no need to go to the lower official position. See you again when we are destined!"

With that said, he pulled Yan Dashan away quickly and quickly disappeared from sight.

"Your Highness..."

The counselor was in shock. When he saw Zhu Xiuyuan running away, he hurriedly came up to him.

However, Zhao Pu stopped the counselor, his eyes were burning and his face was dark.

He said calmly: "This person is indeed interesting, let him go. Now the matters in Beiyuan are important, and the matters in Jiangzhou can be slowed down for a while."

The counselor nodded and said: "Yes, Your Highness!"

With both hands behind his back, Zhao Pu murmured proudly, "I can't get the person my prince likes, and neither can anyone else! Make arrangements quickly and let someone find out everything about Zhu Xiuyuan."

"Subordinates obey!"

"Hehe, very few of the prey that this prince targets can escape. Zhu Xiuyuan, you can't escape from the palm of my hand! The mountains are high and the roads are far, we will wait and see!"

At this time, a soldier from the Yan Kingdom suddenly came to report: "Your Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, the general guarding the Jiangzhou camp of the Chen Kingdom - King Poyang, has arrived with his men!"

……

Let's talk about Da Shan, who was full of murderous intent and calm. He protected Zhu Xiuyuan from going downstairs and then left straight away.

The soldiers of Yan State who were surrounded by Xunyang Tower blocked the road and blocked the way with their hands, preventing them from passing through.

Yan Dashan looked solemn, holding the scabbard in his hand, slowly raising it, ready to fight a way out.

The nearby onlookers suddenly dispersed and fled, retreating two feet away.

"Step aside!"

Zhu Xiuyuan had a sullen face and had no good feelings toward these Yan soldiers.

The fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom actually wanted to capture him and take him to the Yan Kingdom. This was really sinister, despicable and abominable.

Zhu Xiuyuan's opinion of Zhao Pu was extremely bad, and he also had a bad look towards these people from the Yan Kingdom.

Moreover, on the second floor of the Xunyang Building, Yan Dashan had already knocked down more than ten people, which was considered a shame.

Then there is no need to worry about it anymore, just break out first and then talk about it.

"No one can leave without permission from His Highness the Fourth Prince. Please come back!"

The soldiers of Yan State spoke harshly and refused to give way, looking very arrogant.

Zhu Xiuyuan's face darkened again, and he gave Yan Dashan a look, indicating that he should take action and force his way out.

Yan Dashan understood, gripped the scabbard tightly, ready to go.

But at this moment, another Yan State soldier came running.

As he ran, he shouted: "The Fourth Prince has given the order, let us go!"

After hearing this, the soldiers of Yan State who were blocking the road immediately stepped back and got out of the way.

However, his eyes were still fixed on Zhu Xiuyuan and Yan Dashan with disdain, as if they were looking at ants.

With a cold face, Zhu Xiuyuan crossed the intersection and walked away under the protection of Yan Dashan.

Zhu Xiuyuan had just walked more than a hundred steps when he ran into a group of people at a corner.

There are about a hundred people in this team, lined up neatly and wearing armor.Judging from the color of his clothes, he should be a general of Prince Zhenze's palace.

Zhu Xiuyuan recognized the first person, who is not Liu Wencai, the heir son of King Zhenze?
"Brother Liu!"

"Brother Zhu!"

The two of them shouted at the same time, Zhu Xiuyuan stepped forward to greet them, and Liu Wencai got off his horse.

Before Zhu Xiuyuan could speak, Liu Wencai asked first, "Brother Zhu, have you already gone to Xunyang Tower? Did Zhao Pu do anything to you?"

Liu Wencai supported Zhu Xiuyuan and looked up and down with strange eyes.

It seemed that he was checking whether Zhu Xiuyuan was missing any arms or legs.

Now more than a month has passed, and Liu Wencai still looks the same.

Wearing a brand-new Confucian shirt, his thin figure looks extremely fragile and skinny.

His neck is slightly tilted forward, a folding fan is inserted diagonally in the collar of his neck, he wears a square hat on his head, and his face is childish.

Maybe it was because Liu Wencai was in Jiangzhou for more than a month and had unlimited happiness every day. In addition, he drank wine, wrote poems, went hunting in outings, and hung out with local scholars in Jiangzhou. He lived a very happy life.

The mood is also comfortable and carefree, and there is no control from King Zhenze——

Therefore, his face looked very good and his whole person was full of energy.

Zhu Xiuyuan smiled and said: "It's okay. Oh, by the way, Brother Liu, what are you going to do with so many people?"

Seeing that Zhu Xiuyuan was fine, Liu Wencai felt relieved.

"Brother Zhu, I was drinking in a restaurant on the street just now, and suddenly I heard someone say that Jiangzhou Sima was summoned by some fourth prince from the Yan Kingdom, and that prince even rented out the Xunyang Tower..." Liu Wencai said with a smile.

"I know that Zhao Pu is treacherous and cunning, and his methods are vicious. I was afraid that Brother Zhu would suffer in his hands, so I immediately dispatched more than a hundred generals to rescue Brother Zhu. But I didn't expect that Brother Zhu had already come out. By the way, then Zhao Pu didn’t do anything to you, right?”

Zhu Xiuyuan was very moved. Liu Wencai was so generous that he actually brought people to rescue him. He remembered this friendship.

After thanking him, Zhu Xiuyuan said: "Then Zhao Pu instructed the soldiers of Yan State to try to capture me and take me to Yan State. Fortunately, the mountains were there and Zhao Pu did not succeed."

After hearing this, Liu Wencai was frightened for a while, and continued: "Thankfully, fortunately, if Brother Zhu is captured and taken to the Yan Kingdom, there will be big trouble."

After a brief chat, Zhu Xiuyuan left in a hurry because he was eager to return to Jiangzhou Yamen and inform Dong Cheng about what had just happened.

Liu Wencai was afraid that Zhao Pu would be unscrupulous and send people to kidnap him on the way, so he dismissed most of his generals and only brought more than 20 people to personally escort Zhu Xiuyuan to the Jiangzhou Yamen.

All the way without incident.

Zhu Xiuyuan went straight into the yamen, passed through the halls, and came to Dong Cheng's duty room.

Dong Cheng was the governor of Jiangzhou, and Zhu Xiuyuan was the Sima of Jiangzhou, and he was also Dong Cheng's son-in-law. Therefore, Zhu Xiuyuan shuttled through the yamen of this state as if he were wandering at home. No one dared to stop him, and the journey was smooth.

After knocking on the door and entering, Zhu Xiuyuan finished the ceremony and told Dong Cheng what happened in Xunyang Tower just now, without missing any details.

Dong Cheng frowned, stroking his beard from time to time, listening intently, and sometimes interrupting Zhu Xiuyuan to ask about some details that Zhu Xiuyuan had not noticed.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhu Xiuyuan finished speaking.

Dong Cheng nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "My dear son-in-law, there is no need to worry about this matter for the time being, because I just received the report that King Poyang has led his troops to Xunyang Tower, and the fourth prince of Yan Kingdom seems to be in trouble. He didn’t stay in my Jiangzhou for a long time, he already took a boat to go."

Zhu Xiuyuan didn't know about this matter, and he was relieved to hear this.

He was afraid that Zhao Pu would occupy Jiangzhou like a poisonous snake and keep causing trouble for him, which would be a headache.

Now Zhao Pu actually left on his own, well done!

"Father-in-law, what kind of person is Zhao Pu, the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom?" Zhu Xiuyuan asked again.
