Later, Han Cangyu led the Hao Kingdom army back. During this expedition, he lost only one soldier and became the biggest winner in this battle. It can be said that he is an unparalleled existence among other countries.
However, what Han Cangyu didn't know was that a more insidious conspiracy was waiting for him. Just when he was going to conquer the country, the third prince Han Jingran had already obtained the roster of the Qiongzhou party, either through coercion or inducement. , at this optimal time, he took over the power of Hao State.
It has to be said that Han Jingran is indeed more capable than his eldest brother Han Qiongzhou. His plot to force him to marry was carried out quietly. He took advantage of the right time, place and people, and almost killed his father with lightning speed. He came to power in the state of Hao.
Concubine Jin never dreamed that he would give birth to such a deceitful son.
Han Jingran had been plotting for many years, but even his mother didn't know about it. She always thought that the good son in front of her was really so cowardly and incompetent, but she didn't expect that he turned out to be a more vicious character than anyone else. She really didn't know what to do about this. It’s time to be happy or sad.
Han Jingran did not kill Mu Qiuse, but put him under house arrest. After all, his victory also needed a witness. What he wanted was to let Queen Mu see his son's head with her own eyes and see this Hao with her own eyes. The whole country was trampled under his feet by Han Jingran, and then he gave her the illusion of being overly sad and dying in depression.
At the same time as the palace change, he informed the world about the death of King Han Huaimin, and then accused Han Cangyu of having liaison with the country of Yi. He sent the army of the country of Hao to intercept and kill Han Cangyu and recapture Han Cangyu. The military power in Cang Yu's hands.
He will not let His Highness the Crown Prince return to his country with glory. Even if there are people around Han Cangyu at this moment, these people are not all listening to him after all. They obey King Hao, and he, Han Jingran, is the king at this moment. Even if they He had doubts about his succession, but he had no guts to follow the rebel Han Cangyu.
The high-spirited Han Cangyu never dreamed that Shen Cang Mountain would become the place of disaster for him. When the army of Hao State turned back to Shen Cang Mountain, they ushered in the army led by Jin Hong'an, the protector of the country.
It turns out that after Han Jingran became King Hao, the Protector Jin Hongan was the first to cut ties with Prince Cangyu. In order to survive and prove his loyalty to the current King Hao, he actually agreed to intercept and kill Han Jingran. Han Cangyu's mission.
Of course, Han Jingran had already placed spies in the army. If Jin Hong, the protector of the country, did anything wrong, he would be killed immediately.
However, there is no doubt that Lord Protector Jin Hongan has surrendered. Firstly, he always resented the fact that Jin Luowei was deprived of her position as Crown Princess on her wedding day. Secondly, now Han Jingran is the king of Hao Kingdom. , his current power is far greater than that of Han Cangyu who is on an expedition.
There was really no need for him to throw away his life to protect Han Cangyu. Even if he followed Han Cangyu wholeheartedly, he would have been accused of rebelling against the family of a traitor before he could escape Hao Kingdom. Even if he escaped by chance, With the current situation, it will be extremely difficult for Han Cangyu to make a comeback. There is really no need for him to risk his fortune and life for this slim reversal.
Lord Protector Jin Hongan suddenly led his troops, leaving Li Anfeng and Xue Xiaohu confused.
Xue Xiaohu said in confusion: "Your Highness, why did the Lord Protector suddenly come with troops? Is this arranged by you, Your Highness?"
When the two of them looked at the silent Han Cangyu at the same time, they saw that as Lord Protector Jin Hongan slowly approached, his frown became deeper and deeper.
Li Anfeng and Xue Xiaohu had followed him for many years, and they immediately realized something was wrong. They felt that danger was approaching them, and the two couldn't help but enter a state of preparation for war.
When Han Cangyu saw that Jin Hongan and the soldiers all had white cloth strips on their arms, his eyes widened and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that what the Imperial Master said that day actually came true here?
He stretched out his hand to rein in the reins and signaled the team to stop.
Lord Protector Jinhong came on horseback, holding a broadsword in one hand, pointing at Han Cangyu and saying: "According to the order of King Hao, I led my troops to kill the rebel Han Cangyu!"
Li Anfeng thought he had heard wrongly and shouted loudly: "What did you say? His Royal Highness is a traitor?"
Han Cangyu smiled coldly and asked: "Rebel? Why should I rebel?"
Jin Hongan said loudly: "You colluded with the State of Yi and raised troops to rebel. The contract document you signed with King Yi is the evidence of your visit. Now King Hao has issued an order to kill the rebel Han Cangyu. You are members of the State of Hao The soldiers were deceived by Han Cangyu before, but now King Hao’s holy purpose is here!”
When Han Cangyu heard this, they couldn't help but be shocked. Seeing Jin Hongan holding a knife in his right hand and raising an imperial edict in his left hand, they all began to whisper.
"So, His Highness the Crown Prince said earlier that it was King Hao's will to form an alliance with the Kingdom of Yi. It turned out to be not true, but that he secretly colluded with King Hao. So we have all been deceived by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"This matter is of great importance. We need to stand in the correct position. If we don't let the wind slip, we will easily lose our heads!"
"Since His Highness the Crown Prince is a traitor, of course we will assist the Lord Protector in catching the traitor!"
"How could His Royal Highness be a rebel? His Highness is so loyal that he did not hesitate to take risks and lead troops to fight for the country of Hao. How come he was labeled a rebel? Someone must be doing something secretly!"
Li Anfeng and Xue Xiaohu were riding on horseback. Listening to the whispers of the soldiers behind them, their horses were already restless. They were secretly worried that something was wrong in their hearts. They were afraid that if this happened, some people in their camp would surrender to protect the country. On the Duke's side, this is really dangerous for His Highness the Crown Prince!
At this point, Han Cangyu was really calm. He raised his long sword, swung it to cut off the imperial edict in Jin Hongan's hand, and said coldly: "Whose imperial edict?"
Facing Han Cangyu's fierce momentum, Protector Jin Hong'an could not help but feel fear in his heart. He said: "The previous king has passed away, and now the current King Hao is His Majesty Jing Ran!"
"Han - Jing - Ran -" Han Cangyu never thought in his dreams that the person who stood up to him in the end would be his seemingly harmless brother.
Han Jingran, Han Jingran! I didn’t expect you to be more ruthless than Han Qiongzhou, knowing how to disguise and hide. I have trusted you so much in vain for so many years. I saw you as my biological brother, taking care of you, protecting you, and loving you. In the end, you actually stabbed me. The deepest people.
Han Cangyu closed his eyes and trembled slightly.
"Your Highness--"
Li Anfeng and Xue Xiaohu never dreamed that things would turn out like this, but the facts were right in front of them, and they couldn't believe it.
In order to obtain the throne, the eldest prince Han Qiongzhou did not hesitate to send assassins to hunt down Han Cangyu. This incident had made him heartbroken and almost changed him.
Now his favorite third brother Han Jingran jumped out and stabbed him again. This stab was almost fatal. Facing Jin Hongan's army, where would they go?
Han Cangyu took a deep breath and then opened his eyes. There were slight tears on his long eyelashes. No wonder he had already guessed when he saw Jin Hongan's army wearing white cloth strips on their arms. Could it be that something happened to Han Huaimin? Now that he heard that Han Huaimin had passed away, he knew without thinking that it was Han Jingran who forced his father to death.
His father was in good health before he came, how could he suddenly pass away? Han Jingran was such a powerful boy. He seized this critical moment, raised his troops to visit, and seized the king's power. Then with a sudden change of direction, he became that This is not a rebel who bears the name of visiting.
Han Cangyu knew that he could not avoid today's battle. Although he knew that the chance was slim, he didn't want to surrender. There was too much grief and anger stored in his heart, and he wanted revenge!
Han Cangyu looked up to the sky and roared, and then said: "Han Jingran knows very well who the traitor is. Don't think that he is the well-deserved king of Hao Kingdom because he sat on the throne through despicable means. Tell him, as long as there is As long as I, Han Cangyu, am here, his position will not last long. I, Han Cangyu, will be a nightmare that he cannot escape his whole life--"
After Han Cangyu finished speaking, he raised his sword and slashed towards Jin Hongan. However, Jin Hongan was old and did not want to fight against the young and strong Crown Prince. He waved his hand and shouted: "Fire the arrow--"
I saw the infantrymen standing in front squatting down one after another, revealing the archery team behind them who had already drawn their bows and nocked arrows, and sharp arrows came whizzing towards them.
Li Anfeng drew his sword and stepped forward, shouting: "Protect His Highness--"
All the surrounding cavalry rode forward to block Han Cangyu. As the horses fell in the middle, shouts came from behind: "Han Cangyu has rebelled, and we should kill him according to King Hao's order." Han Cangyu!"
Facing the attack from both front and back, Li Anfeng knew that he could not continue the fight, and hurriedly said to the cavalry behind him: "Protect His Highness--"
A group of cavalry who were willing to follow Han Cangyu to the death came on horseback and surrounded Han Cangyu. They raised their shields to resist the sharp arrows coming from behind.
Li Anfeng said to Han Cangyu: "Your Highness, now is not the time to be impulsive. We will protect His Highness from danger--"
Han Cangyu wanted to fight to the death at first, but unexpectedly, the cavalry around him fell down one by one. The soldiers shouted: "Your Highness, we will cover you, let's go!"
Facing more and more soldiers who died fighting for him, Han Cangyu could only grit his teeth and ride away.
Li Anfeng raised his sword and led his troops to protect Han Cangyu.
Xue Xiaohu looked at the pursuit of the two armies in front of him and knew that His Highness the Crown Prince would not be able to escape if this continued. He took off the bow and arrow from his back and shot at the pursuers one after another.
Xue Xiaohu had the ability to pierce the Yangtze with a hundred steps. The people who were chasing him fell one by one. While he shot the chasing cavalry, he shouted loudly: "Kanfeng, take His Highness away, and we will cut off the rear!"
"Little Tiger--"
Li Anfeng was shocked and turned to look at Xue Xiaohu who turned his horse's head and headed towards the enemy without hesitation and shouted loudly.
All the cavalrymen also understood that facing thousands of troops at this moment, they could only fight to the death for His Highness to buy him time to escape. So everyone turned their horses and followed Xue Xiaohu, fighting towards the pursuing army. past.
Suddenly, the sound of fighting resounded throughout the world.
Han Cangyu glared at Xue Xiaohu, who was like a dragon and a snake among the enemy. He took the lead and had unstoppable courage.
"Your Highness, let's go quickly--"
