Chapter 717 With bad intentions
"Princess Changping? Princess Changping?"
Chu Ning ignored his own injuries and shouted loudly while holding Princess Changping who was lying on the ground.
But at this moment Princess Changping was unconscious and could not respond at all.
With a raised eyebrow, Chu Ning reached out to feel her breath, and when he found that she was still breathing, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Go and bring the warhorse over, and first send Princess Changping back to the Daqin Inn for treatment."
There were only two of them left at the scene, and there was no way for them to chase after the black-clad assassins. They could only rescue Princess Changping first.
Moreover, due to the murder of King Wu, martial law has been imposed in the city, and it is impossible for the black-clad soldiers to escape from Chang'an City in a short time.
As long as the other party is still in the city, Chu Ning is confident that he can defeat him.
This time, more than a dozen white horse cavalrymen were lost. Chu Ning was furious and determined to find out who was behind the incident.
No matter who the other party is, he will not let him off easily.
Soon, Ran Ming brought the war horse, and Chu Ning climbed onto the horse while holding Princess Changping. Under Ran Ming's protection, they headed straight for the Daqin Posthouse.
A quarter of an hour later, a noise was heard in the Daqin Inn.
"Ah... Why is Princess Changping like this?"
"What happened to my princess?"
When the Qin soldiers saw Princess Changping being brought back unconscious, they were immediately filled with righteous indignation and surrounded her.
Chu Ning's face was gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Do you want to kill Princess Changping? Why don't you get out of the way quickly?"
He was so imposing and powerful that the pressure from his superior made the surrounding Qin soldiers retreat one after another.
Chu Ning carried Princess Changping to the backyard house, and then came outside and ordered:
"Immediately send someone to inform the Emperor of the Han Dynasty and tell him that the prince and Princess Changping were attacked and all the guards around us were killed in the battle. Please ask the Emperor of the Han Dynasty to send someone to investigate this matter immediately!"
"Also, please ask the doctor to come and treat Princess Changping immediately!"
"Oh, right, send someone to my villa to inform Lord Deng Hongwen that I am safe and sound and that I am here with General Ran Ming. Ask him to step up his guard!"
As orders were issued one after another, the originally irritable Qin army calmed down.
They knew that even if they wanted to find the murderer at this moment, they had to rely on the power of the Han Dynasty.
What's more, Princess Changping was injured and really needed to see a doctor.
Everyone responded and divided into three groups to pass on the message.
Three quarters of an hour later, the imperial palace, Weiyang Palace.
Liu Che, who had been busy all day, had just fallen asleep when he heard the anxious voice of the eunuch outside the palace: "Your Majesty, something big has happened!"
Liu Che raised his eyebrows, threw back the quilt covering his body, opened the palace door with an unhappy look on his face, and asked in a cold voice:
"What happened? Why are you so panicked?"
The eunuch pointed to a Qin soldier standing nearby and explained, "Your Majesty, this is a soldier under Princess Changping's command. He came to report that Princess Changping and His Royal Highness the King of Chu had just been attacked. All of their guards were killed in the battle, and Princess Changping was seriously injured and unconscious."
Liu Che was stunned for a moment, then his face darkened: "Impossible, Princess Changping and the King of Chu are both masters, and they have guards around them. Who can kill all their guards and injure Princess Changping?"
Seeing that Liu Che did not believe him, the Qin soldier who lowered his head said quickly: "Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, according to what the King of Chu said, the other side is a dead soldier!"
"The only ones who survived were the King of Chu, Princess Changping, and General Ran Ming. All the guards died in the battle to save Princess Changping's life."
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is now at my Great Qin Inn. If His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty does not believe it, you can send someone to inquire or to check the scene."
When Liu Che saw that this man spoke with such confidence, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
They dared to take action here and almost killed Chu Ning and Princess Changping. The other party was a death squad. There was no doubt that they must be the death squad of Wei State!
Thinking of this, Liu Che narrowed his eyes and flashed a strange look: "I know, you go back and tell the King of Chu that I will send someone to investigate this matter immediately!"
"Also, have the Imperial Physician Commander take all the Imperial Physicians to the Daqin Inn. Princess Changping must be rescued no matter what!"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty!" The soldier bowed and immediately went back to pass on the message.
Liu Che looked at the soldier's departing back, a hint of amusement appearing on his face.
The fight started, the fight really started!
Wei's revenge came quickly and fiercely, catching everyone off guard.
Although they did not expect the other party to attack Princess Changping as well, this would be more beneficial to the Han Dynasty.
If the Qin State blamed Wei for this, or even sent troops to Wei because of it, that would be an opportunity for the Han State and Wei State to go to war.
Liu Che became more and more excited the more he thought about it, and suddenly burst into laughter.
Under the cover of night, the sound traveled very far.
After a long while, Liu Che finally stopped laughing and shouted, "Come here, summon Marquis Guanjun to come to see me immediately and tell him that I have something urgent to do!"
For such a big event, we naturally need to make plans in advance.
He was worried that he had no reason to go to war with the State of Wei, and now this reason had come.
Three quarters of an hour later, Huo Quji, who received the news, rushed to the Weiyang Palace.
"I will see your Majesty at last!"
"No need to be polite!"
Liu Che narrowed his eyes and sneered, "I'm sure you know everything. Now it's time for the Han Dynasty to take action!"
"You lead your men to find the hiding place of the Wei assassins immediately. After you surround them, tell Princess Changping and Chu Ning about it and let them take revenge."
Huo Quji's eyes lit up: "Your Majesty, do you want these two to take action and destroy the Wei Kingdom's death squad, so as to make enemies with the Wei Kingdom?"
"Not bad!"
Liu Che looked at Huo Quji with admiration and sneered, "The Wei Kingdom is so bold that it dared to attack Princess Changping. Naturally, it will have to bear the wrath of the Qin Dynasty."
"When the two sides are fighting fiercely, our dynasty will seize the opportunity to send troops and catch Wei off guard."
Huo Quji reacted.
This was intended to deliberately stir up conflict between Wei and Qin.
As for Chu Ning...
The two dynasties do not border each other and have no intersection at present, so there is naturally no need to pay too much attention to them.
This time, they wanted to use the incident of the death squad to completely resolve the conflict between Wei and Qin.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will go to investigate the scene right away to see if I can find any clues." Huo Quji felt that this matter could not be delayed.
Once it drags on until daybreak, when there are more people in the city, someone will definitely destroy the scene.
Liu Che looked at Huo Qubing, who looked like a teachable boy, and could not help but nod and smile, saying, "I will naturally feel relieved if I leave this matter to you."
"But this matter is of great importance. The Wei Kingdom is no pushover. I'm sure the person who led the killings this time is no ordinary person. You must be more careful."
Although Liu Che knew that Huo Quji was the best choice in terms of intelligence and rudeness, the matter was of great importance and he had to remind him again and again.
Huo Quji's face straightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will bring more people with me. Even if they have more people, they can't capture the soldiers in my city!"
After saying this, Huo Quji turned and left.
Arriving at the palace gate, Huo Quji jumped on his horse and said in a cold voice: "Mobilize all the soldiers in the city, immediately block all inns, restaurants and brothels, and don't let anyone leave!"
At the command, Chang'an City began to fall into chaos.
