Chapter 724 Playing
"My Lord, are you just going to let them go like this?"
Chu Ning rode away with his soldiers, which made the Han soldiers very angry. Someone asked Huo Quji in dissatisfaction.
Huo Quji stared at Chu Ning's departing back with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "What else can we do? Should we fight him?"
"This..." The soldier didn't dare to answer.
"Humph, he is the envoy of Great Chu after all. If we attack him, it would be equivalent to declaring war on Great Chu!"
Huo Quji said in a deep voice: "Besides, we didn't find Jia Yu just now, so there is no reason to stop him from leaving."
After a pause, Huo Quji narrowed his eyes, raised his eyebrows and said, "I will report back to His Majesty first!"
The matter was of great importance, so he did not dare to make a decision easily and could only report to the emperor first.
Even if we want to take action, we have to get the emperor's order.
Even if he suspected that Jia Yu was in Chu Ning's army, as long as he hadn't arrived, he had no reason to take action.
At the command, everyone rode back to the city.
At this time, Chu Ning led everyone on horseback and left quickly.
But Ran Ming just couldn't figure it out. After running for several miles, he couldn't help it and rode his horse to Chu Ning's side.
"Your Highness, wasn't Jia Yu in the car? Why didn't they find him just now?"
The person was arranged by Ran Ming himself, but the Han army didn't find him just now, which made Ran Ming very confused.
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning couldn't help but exchange a glance with Deng Hongwen and laughed, "Hahahaha, I thought you could hold it in."
Ran Ming laughed awkwardly: "I sent the person up personally, but I didn't see him just now. How could I bear it?"
Chu Ning chuckled and said, "You should ask Lord Deng about this."
Ran Ming was stunned and turned to look at Deng Hongwen with questioning eyes.
Deng Hongwen, who was always stern, couldn't help but laugh at this moment: "When Huo Quji came after them, I knew they were here to find Jia Yu."
"So before they arrived, they sent someone to take Jia Yu off the car and hide him under the car."
"In order to confuse Huo Quji, I even ordered people to move stones up there."
Ran Ming finally reacted after hearing this.
When Huo Quji and his men chased after him, he led his men to prepare for a response. At that time, Deng Hongwen took the opportunity to take Jia Yu off the car.
"It's great, really great!" Ran Ming gave a thumbs up, with admiration on his face.
"But what's the point of bringing Jia Yu back?"
Ran Ming was puzzled. He felt that people like Jia Yu should be killed.
If Chu Ning had not broken through at the critical moment of the attack, he would have been killed.
And all this was planned by Jia Yu!
Dangerous people should be killed!
But Deng Hongwen shook his head slightly when he heard this and said nothing.
Chu Ning at the side chuckled and said, "There are some things you don't understand. You will understand when you return."
This explanation made Ran Mingzi roll his eyes.
But Deng Hongwen seemed to know something, but he had no intention of explaining. He just looked at the carriage carrying Jia Yu from time to time.
At this time, a cavalryman came on horseback and reported: "Your Highness, Jia Yu has been struggling and said he wants to talk to you."
Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "It seems that he knows that he can't escape, and finally wants to talk to me."
After saying this, Chu Ning rode his horse to the front of the carriage.
The soldier opened the curtain, revealing Jia Yu who was tied up inside.
Chu Ning stared at Jia Yu with a playful look on his face and said with a smile: "I am sorry for wronging you, Lord Jia."
Jia Yu's face was gloomy. "Your Highness, the King of Chu, what do you want to do? Are you really going to take me to the State of Chu? Have you thought about the consequences of doing so?"
Chu Ning shrugged, looking nonchalant: "What are the consequences? Does anyone know that it was me who took you away?"
"The Wei Kingdom will only blame the Han Dynasty for your disappearance. It has nothing to do with me."
"Even if they have doubts, they won't find me unless there is solid evidence."
This made Jia Yu silent.
At this moment, he finally realized that Chu Ning took him away in order to put the blame on the Han Dynasty.
"Why are you doing this? What good will it do you to provoke a dispute between the Han and Wei?"
Jia Yu was puzzled: "You also have business dealings with the Han Dynasty. Aren't you worried that a war will affect your business?"
Chu Ning laughed: "Although Wei is strong, the Han Dynasty is not bad either. It will take a while to determine the winner. As long as they cannot invade the Han Dynasty, my business will not be affected."
"Besides, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty has already intended to kill me. It is very dangerous for me to stay here. Leaving is the best option."
The smart Jia Yu fell silent again.
He had no room to refute Chu Ning's words.
But in this case, he had to go to the State of Chu.
Once he went to Chu, he would never be able to return to Wei in his lifetime.
Although Chu Ning did not say what he was taking him to Chu for, he was born in Wei and naturally did not want to go to Chu.
With a long sigh, Jia Yu looked helpless: "It seems that I can't get through this disaster, but I still want to ask, how will the King of Chu treat me after taking me to Chu?"
Chu Ning chuckled and said, "When you get to Chu, you will know."
After he finished speaking, Chu Ning waved his right hand, signaling the soldiers to lower the curtains, and then rode away.
Although they had left Chang'an City, they were still within the territory of the Han Dynasty. They would only be safe once they left the territory of the Han Dynasty.
At Chu Ning's urging, the team galloped on horseback.
At this moment, Huo Quji returned to the palace to report what had just happened.
Weiyang Palace.
After hearing what Huo Quji said, Liu Che's face suddenly became gloomy.
"Chu Ning left after all!"
Liu Che took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, frowned and asked, "Do you think it's right or wrong for me to let him go?"
Huo Quji's eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be so afraid of this man. No matter how powerful he is, he is just a prince!"
"If he wants to pose a threat to my great King Han, he still has two more hurdles to overcome. It won't be too late to speak after he passes those two hurdles and becomes the Emperor of Chu."
Although Huo Quji was also afraid of Chu Ning, he felt that Chu Ning was only a prince and could not decide the policies of the Chu State, nor could he pose a threat to the Han Dynasty in a short period of time.
Unless Chu Ning becomes the crown prince and then the emperor and holds the power to send troops, he can pose a certain threat to the Han Dynasty.
Liu Che couldn't help but nod his head repeatedly after hearing this: "Although I know you are comforting me, this is indeed reasonable!"
"Chu Ning cannot pose a threat to our dynasty in the short term, but Jia Yu's disappearance will surely give Wei an excuse to attack us!"
"Order the Marquis of Guanjun to rush to the frontline immediately and mobilize 200,000 troops to confront the Wei army. If the other side takes action, you don't need to ask for permission, just start the battle immediately!"
"Also, send someone to send a message to the Emperor of Wei, asking him to hand over the three cities that Prince Chen lost to me!"
"Yes!" Huo Quji responded and turned away with excitement on his face.
He hasn't been to the battlefield for a long time, and this battle must be fought to regain his former glory.
This battle was of great importance, so he dared not delay. After passing the order, he immediately set out for the front line.
At the same time, Princess Changping, who was attacked last night, finally woke up!
