Chapter 74 Why do you want to kill the emperor?

Yuejue was born to the empress of the main palace, and he was also the eldest son.

He was named the prince shortly after his birth, and Emperor Ming has been cultivating Yue Jue with imperial skills.

As long as Emperor Ming does not die, Yue Jue's position as crown prince will never be deposed.

In the same way, as long as Yue Jue survives, the future emperor of the Yuezhi will be someone else.

Therefore, how can it be enough to fall into the altar?

Yue Jue's prestige is not only given to him by the title of Prince, but also by his own achievements to the Yuezhi people.

You must do everything personally and keep the common people in mind. Who wouldn’t say that your Royal Highness will live a thousand years?

But he, Yue Jing, was just the child of an imperial concubine, and his reputation was not justified.

His ambitious mother-in-law understood this truth better than he did.

The man in black was shocked when he heard this, his face turned three cents white, and he said in a trembling voice: "Third Prince, please don't lie. The subordinates next to you don't know anything about it, just let the empress do what you want."

Nonsense?

Yue Jing's eyebrows were slightly cold, if she was really lying, that would be really wonderful.

"So, you are responsible for exchanging messages and delivering orders between East Antarctica and the imperial capital?"

If East Antarctica is in chaos, is it necessary to have a ‘commander’?

"Yes."

After receiving a positive answer from the man in black, Yue Jing smiled.

"Last question, Yan Yi and Zhang Yan were also your creations?"

The man in black raised his eyes and glanced at Yue Jing, "Although it was indeed the master's order to make Yan Xu disappear, he was already swept away by the flood before he could take action."

Yue Jing frowned slightly, it was not their fault, and she had not shown her face for so long.

Could it be, "Dead?"

The man in black nodded, "My subordinates did find his body. Yan Hao's identity is beneficial to the situation."

"So you hid his body." Yue Jing said solemnly, this is too good to guess.

In the past two days, the emperor's brother had sent many people to search for the whereabouts of Yan Yi and Zhang Yan, but the two of them seemed to have disappeared from the world, and there was no news about their life or death.

The man in black nodded.

"Where's Zhang Yan? Is he dead too?" Yue Jing stood up slowly, her voice inexplicably gloomy.

The man in black shook his head, "Zhang Yan is not dead. He, one hundred thousand taels of silver, and fifty thousand shi of grain are all in our hands."

Those things are the bargaining chips for the third prince to gain prestige when Yue Jue falls in the future.

"very good."

Yue Jing patted the non-existent dust on her body, and stared at the head of the man in black with dark eyes, covering her ears with lightning speed.

——Breaked his neck.

The head of the man in black instantly became limp, and blood continued to flow from his mouth. He stared at Yue Jing in disbelief with his eyes wide open.

He murmured with difficulty: "...three..."

But he couldn't tell the name of the person who took his head.

Yue Jing looked at the man's ferocious face with disgust, "Do you think you want to kill the emperor's brother?"

Yue Jing took out a handkerchief, wiped her hands, and threw the handkerchief in the man's face.

Walk away.

At the foot of Yunshan Mountain.

Yue Jue sat on the horseback, looking at the steep peaks of the canyon that towered into the clouds.

This bandit leader is quite good at choosing his lair. He can advance, attack, retreat or defend. In his spare time, he can also take in the unique natural scenery.

It is the beginning of spring now, when everything is revived and the spring flowers are in full bloom.

The mountains full of cherry blossoms, peach blossoms, and pear blossoms are swaying in the breeze, creating a sea of ​​​​layers of flowers.

Such a beautiful place, but it's a pity that the people who dominate the mountains have dark hearts.

It's a waste.

"General Wei, have you sent someone to persuade him to surrender?" Yue Jue said.

Considering that there were many disaster-stricken people in the bandits' den, Yue Jue planned to pay homage first and then attack.

"Your Majesty, I have sent people to the mountain to persuade you, but I should have come down by now."

Wei Chi told the vanguard soldier to return here regardless of success or failure.

He hasn't been seen for so long, so he is probably in serious danger.

"oh?"

Yue Jue narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at the motionless forest, "Does this mean rejection?"

Since they are not afraid of death, burying their lives here can be considered a kindness to them.

"Where are the people who are familiar with this mountain shape?"

Wei Chi waved after hearing this, and several common people walked from the queue to Yue Jue: "Common people, please see His Highness the Crown Prince."

"No gift."

Yue Jue saw several people and already had an idea in his mind.

But he planned to listen to Wei Chi's plan first: "General Wei has already figured out a way to attack the mountain?"

Attack the mountain.

It's nothing more than leading a small team up the flanking peak to seek attack opportunities, or facing the enemy head-on to distract the flanking peak.

"Wei Chen divided into four small teams and followed the four warriors up from the side peak."

"The ministers and His Highness attacked from Zhengshan, forming a situation of encirclement and pincer attack."

As long as those bandits are surrounded, they are like catching turtles in an urn.

If you want to catch a thief, it's better than searching for something.

Yue Jue nodded slightly, this was the most direct way, "That's it, let's do it like this."

At this moment, many heads suddenly appeared on the originally silent mountain peak.

There were cries and yells.

Yue Jue frowned slightly, and Wei Chi shouted in a deep voice: "The whole army is on alert."

A bearded man on the mountain was holding a long knife on a man's neck. He was clearly a soldier sent by Wei Chi to persuade him to surrender.

The man raised his voice and said:

"I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince is here, and it is inconvenient for me to kneel down and salute, so I will give His Highness the Crown Prince a big gift!"

As soon as the man finished speaking, without waiting for anyone to react, he raised his knife and slit the soldier's throat.

Blood flew and dyed the peach blossom branches red.

For a moment, the woman behind the bearded woman screamed in surprise one after another.

The man laughed wildly, looking down at the dark crowd at the foot of the mountain, staring at Yue Jue in the moon-white armor in front of him.

He broke off the peach blossom branch stained red with blood and threw it towards Yue Jue.

"Your Highness, please accept the wishes of the common people. The flowers dyed red with human blood are still warm. I believe His Highness will like them."

Yue Jue looked at the bright red peach blossoms coming quickly, his sword-shaped brows seemed to be wrapped in frost, and he stared gloomily at the bearded man.

"Presumptuous!" Wei Chi was furious at such a provocation and stood in front of Yue Jue and cut off the blood-stained peach blossom with his sword.

Unexpectedly, the man became even more excited.

"Hey, Your Highness, is this a gift from a villain who is not satisfied with it?"

"Is it because the courtesy is too light?"

"Your Highness, don't worry, there are more here!"

The bearded man turned around and looked at the group of people crying and crying, and cursed in a deep voice:

"Where are you mourning? It's a blessing you have been praying for in eight lifetimes for your life to be able to give a gift to His Highness the Crown Prince! If you leave this crying person, who should you blame? You are all laughing at me!"

The man swung his sword and frightened the women, causing them to turn pale and scream.

"--ah!!"

The sound of fear echoed throughout the cliff.

The man was about to stab a woman with a knife when Yue Jue's deep and sinister voice sounded:

"stop!"

In an instant, everything was silent.

The bearded hand holding the knife paused slightly, turned around and looked at Yue Jue with a smile:

"I wonder what His Highness the Crown Prince's orders were? But your ears were disturbed? His Highness waited, and the villain immediately pulled out their tongues and gave them to His Highness the Crown Prince."

After finishing speaking, the group of women knelt down with a plop and begged Yuejue for mercy:

"Your Highness, the Prince, have mercy on you! Your Highness, the Prince, have mercy on you!"

Seeing this situation, hundreds of pairs of eyes stared directly at Yue Jue, Wei Chi frowned, "Your Highness..."

This is to hold Yue Jue here.

This man was clearly threatening His Highness the Crown Prince with the lives of those women.

Yue Jue looked at the man with deep eyes and said coldly: "Tell me your conditions."
