In front of the gate of Prince Qi's Mansion.
Huangfu Jianwen flew on his horse.
He had a military background, but now he no longer had the composure and ability of the past, and his face was filled with anxiety.
"The prince is really in Yonglefang?"
The soldier in front of the horse said: "Back to King Qi, the carriage entered Yongle Square and did not come out."
A fierce look flashed in Huangfu Jianwen's eyes: "King Chu, did you arrange Peng Bing's matter this time? If that's true, then you took the initiative to start the war... If you dare to hurt my son I will make you pay back ten times for every cent you take!"
After saying that, he pointed the riding whip in his hand in the direction of Yongle Fang: "Let's go to Yongle Fang!"
Just as King Qi set out.
King Chu also got the news early.
"Huangfu Ting was held hostage?"
King Chu sneered twice: "My eldest nephew loves to show off too much... Now he is finally being noticed, hahaha..."
Just as he was smiling, someone else ran into the study: "His Royal Highness King Chu, we just received the news that the carriage of Prince Huangfu Ting of King Qi has entered Yongle Square. King Qi has led nearly a thousand soldiers to Yongle Square."
"What!"
King Chu stood up nervously: "You said King Qi brought a thousand people? What is he going to do?"
Pacing back and forth in the room, King Chu seemed to feel something, and hurriedly said: "Go, gather a thousand soldiers... no, three thousand soldiers, follow me to Yonglefang!"
At this moment, the actions of King Chu and Prince Qi's Mansion also alarmed another palace in the capital - Prince Jin's Mansion.
Huangfuyan walked into the study with a serious face: "Dad... something happened!"
"What's wrong? You're in a panic. How many times have I told you that the character of a person who does great things is the most important thing. Mount Tai collapses in front but his appearance remains unchanged. An elk rises to the left but his eyes don't blink. Do you understand?"
Huangfuyan hurriedly bowed and said in a calm tone: "Dad, I just got the news that King Qi is leading a thousand soldiers and is rushing to Yonglefang."
"oh?"
King Jin was also slightly startled.
But Huangfuyan continued: "The King of Chu also led three thousand soldiers to the same place."
"Yonglefang?"
King Jin was no longer calm now. He stood up suddenly: "What are they doing here? And they brought so many soldiers?"
"etc!"
King Jin seemed to have thought of something: "Yonglefang... that's right behind the palace. Are they going to... No, no, that's impossible. Chen Wenju's army is still in Tongguan. They are going to take action now. Isn't this? Aren’t you just throwing yourself into a trap and putting your head under Wu Siniang’s knife?”
"Dad, the news I got is... Huangfu Ting has been kidnapped."
"ah!"
King Jin was startled again and said: "Who? Who dared to kidnap Prince Qi's son in Chang'an City?"
Huangfuyan shook his head: "It is said that this person is Peng Bing, the former minister of the Ministry of War, but, isn't this person already dead?"
"It's him!"
King Jin lowered his head, thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "After the Peng Bing incident, I wanted to eradicate him, but King Qi deliberately kept this person, saying that he might be useful in the future. King Qi always He likes to keep his hands open for anything, hum! I didn’t expect that I was trapped in a cocoon, and today Peng Bing actually kidnapped his son..."
At this point, he frowned: "Hey, you just said that Huangfu Ting was kidnapped to Yonglefang?"
"Yes, this news is absolutely true."
King Jin thought for a moment: "I remember that Peng Bing had a daughter, she seemed to be named..."
"Peng Ruoqing." Huangfuyan said.
"Yes, that's right, this is the woman... After Peng Bing's house was ransacked, his daughter was sold to the singer's house."
Huangfuyan nodded and said: "Peng Ruoqing is now Song Ziyi's woman in Yonglefang."
"Song family?"
King Jin's frown slowly relaxed: "So, Chang'an City is lively again tonight, right?"
"Dad, what should we do now?"
"Now?"
King Jin glanced at Huangfu Yan: "Of course we can't watch it now. Such a fun 'battle between two kings' certainly cannot be without officials like us."
"Dad, what you mean is... that we also go to Yonglefang?"
King Jin narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded: "Yes, bring a hundred guards. We men don't need to make such a big show, just wait... Wu Siniang knew that King Qi and King Chu made such a big move tonight, she, I won’t sleep soundly in her Shangyang Palace.”
Inside the Ziwei Palace.
Wu Siniang glanced at Eunuch Gao who walked into the hall in a panic: "What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty... I just received the news that King Qi and King Chu have brought their troops to Yongle Square behind the palace."
Wu Siniang put down her pen and said with a serious look on her face: "How many troops did you bring?"
"The King of Qi has one thousand, the King of Chu has three thousand...and the King of Jin also has one hundred guards."
Wu Siniang frowned and said with a heavy expression: "What do they want to do? Yongle Square? Isn't this the Song family's property?"
"Your Majesty, the news is that Huangfu Ting, the eldest son of King Qi, was kidnapped. It is said that he was taken to Yongle Square, but King Qi brought a thousand soldiers with him. This is really strange."
Wu Siniang also nodded slightly: "The prince was kidnapped. For such a big event, King Qi did not go to the Xunsi Yamen, nor did he go to Jingzhao Mansion, nor did he alert the Jinwu guards. Instead, he secretly brought the government soldiers to solve the kidnapping. Is the prince special?"
"Your Majesty, you are indeed special."
As he spoke, Eunuch Gao took two steps forward and said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember Peng Bing, the former minister of the Ministry of War a few years ago?"
"He? Of course I remember that he offended the King of Jin and was eventually dismissed from his post and his house was confiscated."
Wu Siniang shook her head: "This Peng Bing is quite a talented person, but it's a pity that he chose to offend King Jin for some reason."
"Your Majesty, according to reliable information, this is the person who kidnapped Prince Qi tonight."
"oh!"
Wu Siniang was stunned for a moment and said: "What's going on? How could Peng Bing come back from the dead?"
"Your Majesty, this person appeared in the Su Mansion before kidnapping Prince Qi tonight."
"You mean Su Yi's home?"
Eunuch Gao nodded slightly: "Your Majesty, is there any relationship between Peng Bing and Mr. Su Yisu?"
"This Su Yi! How can everything be related to him?"
Wu Siniang said with a cold face: "Peng Bing kidnapped the crown prince of Qi. Huangfu Ting had had friction with Su Yi before. Could it be that Su Yi instigated it? But Peng Bing is dead, how did Su Yi save him? Peng Bing? If Su Yi did all this, then he really disappointed me. "
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Eunuch Gao asked.
Wu Siniang, who pondered for a moment, said coldly: "Let Zhang Chang lead people to surround the Su Mansion. Don't alert the people in the manor first, and wait for my order."
"yes."
Wu Siniang thought for a while: "As for the matter of Yongle Square, I have to go there myself. The three kings have all rushed to my back wall. How can I not ask about it?"
