Zhao Pu waved his hand, and a smile suddenly appeared on his expressionless face. The smile was strange and meaningful.

He also said: "There is no need to rush. There is no need to rush for a while. It will not be too late to set off back to Beijing after seeing Zhu Xiuyuan."

Although the counselor was anxious, since Zhao Pu had said so, he had no choice but to accept it.

At this time, another soldier from the Yan Kingdom came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince, the assassin refused to tell who was behind it and insisted that he was unjustly accused."

Zhao Pu's expression did not change, his eyebrows were furrowed, as if he was thinking about other things, and he just said casually: "Sink to the bottom of the river to feed the fish!"

"Yes!" The soldiers of Yan State did not hesitate and retreated to carry out Zhao Pu's order.

…

Outside Xunyang Tower.

Zhu Xiuyuan rushed here, followed only by Yan Dashan.

He already knew that the person who took over the entire Xunyang Tower was the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom.

Moreover, this person also sent someone to invite him to a banquet, saying that he had something urgent to discuss.

At that time, Zhu Xiuyuan was wandering on the street.

I am worried about what to cook for the old beggar today.

The men sent by the fourth prince of Yan State happened to find him.

Zhu Xiuyuan originally didn't want to go, but the man tried hard to persuade him, and finally said that he had something to discuss about Jiangzhou's life and death, and he would regret it if he didn't go.

Zhu Xiuyuan was confused and worried, so he took Yan Dashan with him and rushed to the Xunyang Tower to attend the meeting.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived, they happened to see the Liang soldiers sinking the entourage into the bottom of the river.

Zhu Xiuyuan was alert and hurriedly told Yan Dashan: "You will go in with me later and don't leave me even a step. If there is any abnormal movement, retreat immediately!"

Hearing this, Yan Dashan nodded vigorously and said in a deep voice: "My dear benefactor, please don't worry, I'll spare it for you."

Zhu Xiuyuan was very relieved about Yan Dashan.

After more than a month of "special training", the old beggar worked hard on him.

The old beggar’s evaluation of Yan Dashan is as follows: If you encounter elite soldiers, you can move freely among a hundred people. You can protect yourself among a thousand people. If you need to protect one person, you will be seriously injured. You can barely survive among two thousand people.

branch.

Therefore, Yan Dashan is now very powerful and is an "enemy of a thousand people".

Even the dragon's pond and tiger's den can be broken into. As long as he doesn't encounter more than two thousand elite soldiers, he can run rampant on the battlefield!

Going deep into Xunyang Tower alone is tantamount to breaking into the dragon's pond and tiger's den, which is very dangerous.

But with the mountains around him, Zhu Xiuyuan is not afraid anymore.

And he still had to go to Xunyang Tower.

Because what the person who brought the words said was too alarmist.

He must investigate deeply and find out what is related to the life and death of Jiangzhou.

Zhu Xiuyuan led Yan Dashan, majestic and high-spirited, straight towards the Yan soldiers guarding the outside of Xunyang Tower...

Second floor of Xunyang Building.

Zhao Pu, the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom, and the counselor were lowering their heads and discussing in a low voice.

Suddenly, a soldier from the Yan Kingdom came in and reported: "Your Highness the Fourth Prince, the Jiangzhou Sima Zhu Xiuyuan has arrived, but..."

Zhao Pu stopped lowering his head to discuss secretly, looked at the soldier, his face was slightly unhappy, and asked: "Just what?"

The Yan soldiers were hesitant and hesitant, and could not even speak.

Zhao Pu shouted angrily and ordered him to speak directly if he had anything to say, otherwise military law would serve him.

The soldiers of the Yan State were frightened, so they did not dare to hesitate and said stutteringly: "Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, my subordinates stopped Zhu Xiuyuan and his entourage. According to regulations, the weapons carried by the entourage must be removed, but..."

"But Zhu Xiuyuan refused to live or die, and said...and said...since the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, then he is a majestic Jiangzhou Sima, so it's okay to disappear!"

After the soldier finished speaking, he hurriedly lowered his head, fearing that Zhao Pu would vent his anger on him.

However, Zhao Pu did not get angry after hearing this.

On the contrary, Zhao Pu looked up to the sky and laughed.

"Hahaha... interesting, interesting, this prince has not seen such a person with such backbone for a long time. Anyway, let them come up!"

After receiving the order, the Yan soldiers fled downstairs like flying.

Bring Zhu Xiuyuan and Yan Dashan upstairs with the weapons.

It is said that Zhu Xiuyuan and Yan Dashan were on the second floor of Xunyang Building. When they entered the door, they saw two people inside.

A person is born with a broad face, big shoulders and round waist, a firm body, and extraordinary bearing.

The other person is dressed as a counselor, wearing a green cloth robe and holding a feather fan. His appearance is a bit vulgar.

A discerning person will know at a glance that the man with a broad face is Zhao Pu, the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom.

While Zhu Xiuyuan was sizing up Zhao Pu, Zhao Pu was also sizing him up.

Zhao Pu did not move, but Zhu Xiuyuan walked up first, cupped his hands and said, "Sima Zhu Xiuyuan of Jiangzhou, pays homage to the fourth prince of Yan Kingdom!"

Yan Dashan followed Zhu Xiuyuan closely, and also followed his benefactor and held his hands, but did not speak.

A smile appeared on Zhao Pu's face, he laughed loudly and held up his hands.

He smiled and said: "Zhu Sima, please get up. This prince has heard in the past that Jiangzhou Sima Zhu Xiuyuan is a talented person in the world, but it is unexpected that Zhu Sima is so young. Haha, it turns out that a hero is born from a young age. He can be overcome by one wave."

What a wave!"

Zhu Xiuyuan carefully observed Zhao Pu's expression.

I saw that his face was cunning and treacherous, with a hint of heroism.

Then he frowned slightly and became more vigilant.

This person is the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom and a member of the royal family of the Yan Kingdom.

But when you compare it with Li Jiye, the Qian king of Liang, the difference is huge!

Zhu Xiuyuan felt inexplicably uncomfortable when facing this person.

There is always a feeling of suffocation and stiffness. This feeling is very bad and uncomfortable.

On the contrary, when I get along with Li Jiye, the king of Liang Guoqian, I don't have this feeling.

It was very peaceful, very fair, and had a sense of equal communication between modern people.

Facing Zhao Pu's polite greetings, Zhu Xiuyuan was disdainful and his face was stiff.

He didn't even bother to pretend to reciprocate courtesy, and to be courteous first and then to fight.

He just said: "The people under the fourth prince said that there is a matter that is related to the life and death of Jiangzhou. The fourth prince wants to discuss it with the official? Now that the official is here, please tell the fourth prince what it is and what the relationship is.

Jiangzhou’s life and death?”

Zhao Pu was stunned for a moment and then immediately reacted.

He smiled and said: "Zhu Sima, this matter is not urgent. Haha, my prince is also a cheerful person when I see Zhu Sima. So, I won't waste any more words. Come here."

As Zhao Pu said "Here comes someone", bursts of dull footsteps could be heard on the corridor outside the hall, like drums.

Zhu Xiuyuan was puzzled, and together with Yan Dashan, they couldn't help but turn their heads and stare at the door.

Before Zhu Xiuyuan could do anything, Nayan Dashan had already put his hand on the hilt of the knife, with a solemn look on his face. He was watching all directions and listening to all directions, as if he was ready to kill someone at any time.

As the sound of "dong dong dong" got closer, someone finally appeared at the door.
