Chapter 403: Something Happened in the Capital



Chapter 403: Something Happened in the Capital

"Ha! Catch him back!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Even if Shen Chenli didn't say anything, they would still go and arrest him.

Once the general caught them, the army naturally collapsed.

Sure enough, the Da Sheng soldiers, who were already frightened, became so frightened that their legs went weak when they found out that their leader had been captured.

At this moment, Song Shixu finally jumped down from the splint and shouted excitedly to the people below:

"Surrender without killing!"

Well, with just one sentence, all the Da Sheng soldiers knelt down.

Can't they just not run away?

Cleaning up the battlefield went surprisingly smoothly. After all, they were all Da Sheng soldiers, and they knew what to do from every word and action.

They all knew what kind of person Prince Chen was, so they were particularly obedient and did whatever he told them to do without any resistance, and some were even very excited.

They were actually captured by Prince Chen's soldiers. You can see the heroic image of Prince Chen!

After crossing the Qinglan River, you are not far from the capital.

Shen Chenli did not stay for long, but led his soldiers to continue advancing towards the capital, killing the emperor and the prince by surprise.

The current prince is preparing for his ascension to the throne. As for the matter of Shen Chenli crossing the Qinglan River, he just left it on the table and ignored it.

In his opinion, after he ascended the throne, Shen Chenli would naturally obey his orders. At worst, he could give him all the land north of the Qinglan River as his fiefdom. This was not impossible.

As for why he was so confident, he thought about the letter he had sent before.

The prince was very confident that he could turn defeat into victory even if Shen Chenli’s troops were at the gates of the city!

I don’t know what the prince is thinking. Shen Chenli is leading the army to the capital. He doesn’t care whether you have ascended the throne or not.

If he doesn’t kill them, he wouldn’t be Shen Chenli if he doesn’t kill them!

"Princess, where is that ship?"

After the army set out, Song Shixu excitedly ran to Yu Tingwan and began to ask about the boat.

He regrets it!

He stayed on the boat for less than an incense stick of time before reaching the shore, and then started shooting at the enemy.

After everything was dealt with, he looked back and it was gone!

Such a big ship, just gone like that!

The princess had already gone ashore, and there was no sign of her at all; the boat simply disappeared!

He hasn't sat enough!

Yu Tingwan looked at him with amusement, but shrugged at him:

"No, I borrowed the boat, so I have to return it, or else they will come after me!"

Song Shixu's eyes widened instantly.

What do you mean? This isn't the princess's thing?

The others who were eavesdropping were equally shocked.

"This isn't yours?"

"Yes, this is what I asked the gods in heaven for help last night. The gods gave it to me and told me to return it immediately after using it, otherwise they would not let me use it next time. I said no problem!"

After saying that, Yu Tingwan didn't care about their expressions and rode his horse to catch up with Shen Chenli.

"no……"

Song Shixu looked at Yu Tingwan's leaving back speechlessly.

If the princess wants to deceive people, she should choose a good reason! Is it so perfunctory?

Song Shixu was not the only one who felt that he was being treated perfunctorily. However, no one dared to ask any more questions. Didn’t they see that the prince’s death gaze was already sweeping over them?

They were just wondering if they would have the chance to sit here again in the future.

It’s really not satisfying!

Some have already thought of going somewhere else.

I don’t know if the princess has the blueprints. Maybe she can ask Mr. Lu who is far away at the border to make it. He will definitely be happy to do it if he is given the blueprints!

Because their maritime operations are not well developed, the largest ships are the imperial ships used by the royal family in the capital for lake cruises.

But it's nothing compared to this!

This is the difference between father and son!

Everyone headed towards the capital with regret in their hearts. As they got closer to the capital, their mood became heavier.

The expression on Shen Chenli's face could no longer be described in words. The storm in his eyes made people feel frightened.

They never imagined that the closer they got to the capital, the more refugees there would be.

These are not refugees fleeing to the capital, these are people fleeing from the capital and its vicinity!

What this means is that they can no longer stay in the capital!

Most people in the capital had seen Shen Chenli and Yu Tingwan, and their reaction after seeing their army on the official road was to cheer.

Then a few brave ones came up and knelt down there!

"Prince! Princess! You are back! Ah!!!"

His shout instantly attracted the attention of the people around him, and everyone reacted and knelt in front of the army. What they said made Shen Chenli and others furious.

"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for us!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the capital is no longer the same as it once was. Now it is full of snakes, insects, rats and ants. It has become the world of the people of Nanliang!"

Hearing this, Shen Chenli frowned instantly.

"Nanliang people?"

"Why are people from Nanliang in the capital?"

"Are you here to attend the crown prince's coronation ceremony?"

It shouldn’t be!

After everyone guessed, they felt it was impossible.

There is not such harmony between countries. It is impossible for them to come to pay homage to the emperor when he ascends the throne!

If it was really the prince who ascended the throne, people from Southern Liang and other countries would be eager to take a bite immediately. How could it be so harmonious!

They are not fools. How could they watch their country lag behind other countries, the crown prince has not made any achievements, and the prince is now at odds with them?

This is the best time for neighboring countries to counterattack!

However, the speculations of several people were rejected by the people.

"No, no!" a merchant explained bitterly:

"You were busy fighting before and didn't know that the emperor issued an edict, saying that all the counties in the southern part of Dasheng near Nanliang would be ceded to the Nanliang people. The Nanliang people are here to claim the fiefdom!"

"What did you say!!"

"Leave a fiefdom?"

All the soldiers who heard this were angry. Wasn't this just handing over the territory of Da Sheng to others?

Why do they do this?

"How is it possible? Why do you suddenly want to do this?"

Yu Tingwan just felt it was outrageous. What was the purpose of this?

After hearing Yu Tingwan's question, those who knew something about the situation began to stammer and tremble.

"Yes, it's to deal with the prince!"

Yu Tingwan's face was full of complicated expressions:?

"Is there no objection?"

The people shook their heads. The news was leaked by those arrogant people from Nanliang. As for whether anyone objected, they didn't know!

"Now that you are back, our Highness, we are relieved. We originally planned to head north to the border to find you and tell you all these things. Although I am just a small trader and most people here are from poor families, we also know that the southern part of Dasheng must not fall into the hands of these Nanliang people!"

Once the situation gets started, countless jackals, tigers and leopards will come to fight for the land of Da Sheng, and then the peaceful lives of the people of Da Sheng will be gone!
