Chapter 475 News leaked
Tie Zheng felt relieved after hearing what Prince Chenliu said. He bowed to Prince Chenliu and left in a hurry.
Prince Chenliu opened the crumpled piece of paper again and took a look at it.
This Marquis of Zhenbei can be said to be extremely bold.
He actually dared to write the signature of Marquis Zhenbei at the end of the letter. Was he really not afraid that he would hand the letter to Emperor Longchang?
He read those few words again, and then couldn't help but chuckle.
It only mentioned a spy in his orbit, but didn't say where it came from. It mentioned an ambush ahead, but didn't say who set it. The moment he saw the note, he knew the spy was sent by Emperor Longchang, and the ambush was set by his men. They were merely warning him, but he was the one making the final call!
Even if he gave this letter to Emperor Longchang to sow discord between him and Marquis Zhenbei, Marquis Zhenbei could completely deny the whole thing. After all, Emperor Longchang would never admit to setting an ambush in Furong Town! Then, Marquis Zhenbei could simply claim that he had deliberately created this note to sow discord between them.
Besides, whoever really wanted to tip him off would be cunning and cunning. It was hard for Emperor Longchang to believe that someone would put his own name at the end so blatantly.
Leaving his name at the end of this secret letter meant he wanted him to believe it! He also wanted Emperor Longchang not to believe it!
High! Wei Ling!
Prince Chenliu suddenly became anxious. He wanted to meet the Marquis of Zhenbei who had seized his throne for Emperor Longchang!
The Prince of Chenliu claimed that he was feeling unwell, that he suddenly felt like vomiting but couldn't, and that he just wanted to rest. They were pretending to be a merchant caravan, so naturally they had a doctor with them. The doctor came to see the Prince of Chenliu and said that he had an upset stomach, and now he not only had a discomfort in his stomach, but also a high fever.
The doctor went to prepare medicine for Prince Chenliu in a serious manner. Since Prince Chenliu was really sick, everyone could only wait where they were.
We waited until dusk.
His guards have been following him for quite some time. Generally speaking, they rarely ask about the decisions their master makes and just follow his lead.
But today was different. Some people were clearly getting restless.
Inside the inn in Furong Town, Chen Xinghe had changed into the clothes of a wealthy businessman and was sitting in the lobby of the inn, pretending to drink tea.
His men have replaced everyone inside and outside the inn. As long as Prince Chenliu and his entourage set foot in Furong Town, they will not be able to escape from his clutches.
The well water in this inn has been drugged. No matter how cautious the people around Prince Chenliu are and how they do everything themselves, they cannot escape his arrangements.
This time, Chen Xinghe was 90% sure he could capture the Prince of Chenliu alive! Even if he couldn't capture him alive, he could still kill him. Even if he managed to escape, he probably wouldn't be able to get more than a few steps. Furthermore, the Prince of Chenliu had people around him who he had instigated to rebel. This time, the Prince of Chenliu was truly doomed!
According to the original itinerary, Prince Chenliu should have arrived in Furong Town at dusk.
However, the people he arranged to investigate at the town entrance had not yet received any news about the caravan disguised as the Prince of Chenliu.
He was originally full of confidence, but when the sunset sank into the other side of the mountain and the last ray of sunset glow was swallowed by the night, he could no longer sit still.
Chen Xinghe had a gloomy face as he looked at the lanterns that had been raised at the door of the inn. His heart was like a raging storm!
The Prince of Chenliu didn’t come!
Why didn't you come?
Did he encounter something on the way or did the news here leak out?
Chen Xinghe thought about it carefully and his face suddenly turned pale!
The news must have leaked!
He clenched his fists, his knuckles white, and his joints made a soft crackling sound. Was it because the eldest princess had someone to cause trouble? If so, then he really had to thank his first wife!
"Call everyone to gather!" Chen Xinghe made a prompt decision.
Soon, all the secret guards who had been lying in ambush inside the inn appeared outside the lobby. There were hundreds of them packed tightly together!
"Only ten people will stay here." Chen Xinghe said to his subordinates, "The rest of you will search along the road!"
If the Prince of Chenliu hadn't come to Furong Town to rest, he would have been resting in the wilderness tonight. As long as we could find him tonight, we could have killed him even in the wilderness! But the chances wouldn't be as great as here, and we wouldn't have the luxury of being here.
Prince Chenliu's men are disguised as a merchant caravan. There's only one official road leading to the capital from the south! As long as we follow the road, we'll always find clues!
Chen Xinghe led his men out of Furong Town.
At this time, in the caravan, the carriage where Prince Chenliu was sitting was still silent. Several bonfires had been lit around it, and the guards disguised as caravan workers were sitting around the fire in groups of three or four eating.
This is their dinner, freshly prepared and distributed.
"Looks like we'll have to stay here tonight," someone whispered. "Why hasn't Lord Tie come out to arrange the night patrol?" he asked curiously.
"Don't worry about those trivial matters. The adults will take care of it." Someone next to him replied.
As soon as the two people finished speaking, Tie Zheng appeared behind them without them noticing.
Suddenly, there was an extra person behind them. The two men became alert, looked back, and stood up. "Sir." They both saluted with fists.
Tie Zheng looked at both of them one by one with a bit of scrutiny.
Just when the two of them felt that Tie Zheng's gaze was indeed different from usual, making them feel cold and gloomy, Tie Zheng suddenly said, "Where is Xu Jiashan?"
The two men finally came back to their senses and glanced at the empty seat beside them. "Oh, he just said that his stomach was a little uncomfortable, so he went to the nearby woods to relieve himself!"
Just as the two of them finished talking, a man ran out from the woods, "I'm here!" He seemed to be in a hurry and didn't even fasten his pants.
At the same time, a few birds fluttered up from the dark forest!
Tie Zheng's expression changed, and he drew his sword directly. The man's expression was also stern, and he suddenly pulled out his hand that was on his waistband. He didn't know when two daggers appeared in his hand. In the light of the bonfire at night, the daggers glowed with a faint blue light.
The man dodged Tie Zheng's sword by lying on his back, but the dagger in his hand scratched the arms of the other two guards who had not yet figured out what had happened!
"The dagger is poisoned!" The two men only felt the injured part tingle, and then half of their bodies lost consciousness.
The two of them couldn't help but scream in horror!
The guards around who heard it immediately stood up and tried to draw their weapons, but found themselves dizzy after standing up suddenly!
"Dinner is poisonous!" Someone immediately reacted and shouted!
