Chapter 435 Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet
The eighth prince's resistance completely angered the crown prince.
At the command, the guards of the Eastern Palace and the runners of the Ministry of Justice immediately rushed forward.
The guards and servants of the Eighth Prince's palace were not to be outdone. They rushed out of the palace with weapons in hand.
Suddenly, the sound of killing was deafening, the sound of weapons clashing, and the sound of shouting and killing were endless.
The two sides entered a white-hot stage from the very beginning, fighting each other with weapons and blood was shed on every sword.
In an instant, the soldiers on both sides were blood-thirsty and killing-crazy, each serving their own master, just to complete orders.
Ling Haoran was worried about the prince's misfortune, so he quickly stood in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, swords have no eyes, you go to the back and command."
But the angry prince pushed him away and said fiercely: "No, I will command here and will not retreat a single step!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Eighth Prince, who was commanding at the gate of the palace, sneered and said, "Come on, shoot!"
Suddenly, a row of archers appeared on the roof of the palace and shot arrows in the direction of the prince.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
The sharp arrow whistled, and Ling Haoran's face changed drastically: "Protect the prince, protect the prince quickly!"
The guards of the Eastern Palace immediately stepped forward and used their bodies to form a human wall in front of the prince.
"Puchi~Puchi~" The sharp arrows killed four or five East Palace guards on the spot.
Seeing the guard who had followed him for many years being shot to death, the prince was furious. His eyes instantly turned red and a ferocious look appeared on his face:
"Kill, kill them for me!"
But Ling Haoran held the prince and shouted, "Someone, protect the prince and retreat!"
Immediately, guards rushed up and pulled the angry prince back.
This scene made the Eighth Prince's mouth slightly raise, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Since my plan has been discovered, I can only kill you first, and then leave the city!"
With a wave of his right hand, the masters hidden in the palace swarmed out.
Although this group of people is not large, with only more than fifty people, each of them is a master of martial arts.
The guards of the Eastern Palace and the runners of the Ministry of Justice, who had already been driven back by the sharp arrows, were retreating when they were rushed in by this group of masters from the royal palace. They were unable to resist for a while.
The master of the palace fought one against three with great bravery, killing many guards of the Eastern Palace and runners of the Ministry of Justice.
Seeing this, the palace guards and servants became more motivated and charged forward frantically.
In a short period of time, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, and the prince's side went from being on the offensive to being on the defensive.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ling Haoran quickly suggested: "Your Highness, why don't you go to the palace and ask His Majesty to send the imperial guards, and I will personally resist them here!"
Now, the prince's safety is the most important thing.
But this cannot be said openly. The prince, who is strong-willed and wants to save face, will never admit defeat. The only way is to find another way to let the prince leave.
But the crown prince was angry, his eyes red as he roared, "I'm not going anywhere, I'll stay here. Don't forget, my brother Prince Chu has already gone to the palace. I believe that my father will definitely send the imperial guards to support him!"
After saying this, the prince shouted to everyone, "Hold on a little longer, the imperial guards will be here soon!"
The people who were originally in danger were greatly encouraged and fought hard for a while, and the two sides came to a stalemate.
The Eighth Prince's face darkened when he saw this: "It seems that Chu Ning has indeed brought the imperial guards. In this case, leave some ordinary people to stop them, and the other ordinary people will escort me out of the city!"
There is nothing you can do, so you can only leave.
Although killing the prince would make one feel better, it would be difficult if they were surrounded by Chu Ning and the imperial guards.
The imperial guards and the white horse cavalry around Chu Ning, the combat effectiveness of this group of people far exceeds that of the Eastern Palace guards and the Ministry of Justice runners, and they must not be entangled by this group of people.
At the command, the Eighth Prince and a group of people immediately rode their horses towards the south of the city, which was the closest to this place.
As long as you get out of the city gate and return to your fiefdom, you can make a comeback!
"Quick...quickly stop them!" The prince was anxious and shouted.
But at this moment, the guards of the Eastern Palace and the officials of the Ministry of Justice could only resist and had no power to pursue.
Anyone who rushes out will be killed by the masters of the palace who stay behind!
As screams rang out and more than a dozen corpses appeared on the ground, no one dared to chase them anymore.
At this moment, the Eighth Prince was fleeing on horseback with his men.
Under the cover of night, the sound of horse hooves on the streets of Kyoto disturbed the peace.
The galloping warhorse was driven like a wild beast, accelerating continuously and neighing from its mouth.
However, just half a cup of tea after they left the palace and were about to approach the city gate, a troop of soldiers appeared in front of them.
Under the torches at night, the all-white war horses looked particularly eye-catching.
There is only one person in the entire Kyoto City who can gather so many pure white war horses, and that is Chu Ning!
The eighth prince saw a soldier blocking his way from afar and his face changed drastically.
When I got closer, I could see the leader clearly. He was tall, with bulging muscles that supported his armor, making him like an iron tower, which was frightening.
This man was holding a spear, and his hair, without any light, looked shiny under the torchlight. Who else could it be but Ran Ming!
The Eighth Prince's face changed drastically: "Oh no, it's Chu Ning's white horse cavalry!"
Ran Ming grinned: "Yes, it is the White Horse Cavalry. Do you want to dismount and surrender yourself, or do you want me to do it myself?"
The Eighth Prince narrowed his eyes and glanced behind Ran Ming. He found that there were only a hundred white horse cavalrymen, and a ruthless look appeared on his face.
"With just a hundred cavalrymen, do you think you can defeat this king?"
Who knew that just as he finished speaking, a light laugh came from behind him: "Really? What if we add another 500 imperial guards?"
The Eighth Prince's face changed drastically, he turned around and looked, and saw who else it was but Chu Ning.
At the same time, troops rushed out from all directions of the streets.
They were dressed in black armor, riding war horses, and filled with murderous aura, just like the gods of death in hell!
This group of people are none other than the Imperial Palace Guards!
The Eighth Prince's face was extremely gloomy. He stared at Chu Ning and said word by word: "Chu Ning, do you dare to arrest me?"
Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said calmly: "I am here on the orders of my father to invite my brother to the palace."
"please?"
The Eighth Prince suddenly pointed at the group of imperial guards and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha, you are inviting me to the palace with so many imperial guards?"
His eyes turned cold, and the Eighth Prince said in a cold voice: "If you were this king, would you go?"
Chu Ning shrugged: "I am not a mynah bird, and I will not do anything to undermine the stability of the court. Father will not treat me in this way.
Well, it's getting late, brother, don't keep your father waiting any longer, just follow me back to the palace."
Unexpectedly, the Eighth Prince clenched his hands, drew the sword from his waist, and sneered: "Since ancient times, victors have been kings and losers have been bandits. Although my plan failed, I have not completely lost!
As long as we get out of the city, there is still a glimmer of hope!
Eighteenth brother, you better be careful. If I can’t get out tonight, I will definitely drag you down with me!”
After saying this, the Eighth Prince took a deep breath, and roared with determination:
"Kill Chu Ning!"
The plan failed, Chu Ning is the culprit. Even if he dies, Chu Ning must be made to suffer tonight!
