Dou Yong was startled, "The prince will not come back again?"
He didn't understand whether the prince would never come back to attack them again, or whether he meant something else.
Dou Huaishan also had a good appetite today. Although his breakfast was not as refined as before, he still ate it with gusto.
After he finished eating, he wiped his mouth and said, "The prince has removed Prince Jing!"
"Prince Jing has been removed?" Dou Yong also raised his head.
"Yes, if the prince only concentrates on attacking us, there may be a chance of survival, but now it seems that the prince has not really seen the situation clearly." Dou Huaishan said.
"What you are saying is that the prince will not only be unable to get rid of Prince Jing, but will also die in the hands of Prince Jing?" Dou Yong couldn't help but said, "But as far as my subordinates know, Prince Jing's palace does not have many troops, and the prince has brought close Ten thousand troops are enough to sweep Prince Jing's Mansion to the ground."
"Didn't I say this before? The emperor has planned to get rid of the prince, but in fact he also gave the prince one last chance. This last chance is to see if the prince can get rid of me. If the prince gets rid of me, then It was a great achievement, and the emperor might be able to use this reason to spare the prince's life. As long as the prince persisted in attacking the Hou Mansion, no one could take away this credit. However, the prince was still too impatient and only thought about the dragon chair, so... ” Dou Huaishan shook his head and said no more.
"So, when the prince goes here, he will not die in the hands of Prince Jing, but in the hands of the emperor." Dou Yong also understood.
"Master Marquis, is now a good time for us to break out?" Then he asked.
Dou Huaishan shook his head, "Now is not a good time."
"Then when is the good time?" Dou Yong asked.
"I am waiting for Li Qian!" Dou Huaishan said.
"Waiting for Li Qian?" Dou Yong was stunned for a moment.
"Li Qian specially left a tunnel for me, just to force me into despair. By taking this tunnel, I am waiting for Li Qian to really drive me into despair!" Dou Huaishan said.
Dou Yong opened his mouth. Isn't he desperate enough now?
They are now trapped in the Hou Mansion and can't do anything.
Once the imperial army increases its troops in large numbers, it will be really difficult for the Hou Mansion to hold on.
Could it be that what Mr. Hou called a good time was not the moment when the Hou Mansion was breached?
But he didn't dare ask anymore.
After all, the Marquis seems to be in a good mood today, and maybe he has really thought of some good solution.
After Dou Yong went down, Dou Huaishan leaned on the chair and closed his eyes slightly.
"Li Qian, I have fought with you so many times, and you have taught me a lot. Risk your life and survive. Not only you can do it, but I can too!"
This is a canyon outside the capital, surrounded by mountains and sparsely populated.
It looks like a very ordinary canyon, but the real mystery of this canyon is that there is a cave underground.
And the space is vast enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
However, this is by no means natural, but man-made.
In other words, this canyon is an underground space dug by humans.
"Dou Huaishan is really thinking carefully!"
Outside the canyon, He Rong led an army of 30,000 troops stationed here.
Of course, the remaining more than 30,000 Xizhou troops are stationed in the underground space within the canyon.
But now, they are obviously under control. No one dares to act rashly, and they all stay in the canyon.
He Rong looked at the canyon and sighed, "It seems that Dou Huaishan has been preparing to invade the capital for a long time. He dug this canyon just to hide his troops here. He is really thinking carefully!"
"Isn't he doing this right now?" Li Qian beside him said with a smile, "No matter how early and fully he prepares, his efforts are still in vain."
He Rong turned back and glanced at Li Qian, "If it weren't for Mr. Li, he might have actually done this."
"That can only mean that he was really unlucky to meet me." Li Qian said with a smile.
"Master Li, are brothers Dou Hui and Dou Hai really reliable?" He Rong said.
"Haven't Master He seen whether they are reliable or not? Besides, Master He personally leads the army to guard here, and is he worried that they will cause trouble?" Li Qian said with a smile.
"The prince asked me to hand over all my troops to him so that I can attack the Hou Mansion with all my strength, but I have not met with him for a long time. Now is indeed a good opportunity to get rid of Dou Huaishan. What do you think I should do, Mr. Li?" He Rong said.
"Then will Master He really hand over his troops to the prince?" Li Qian asked with a smile.
"My allegiance is to Your Majesty, not to the Crown Prince. Even if I give my troops to the Crown Prince, I will not obey any other orders except to attack the Marquis' Mansion." He Rong said.
Then he looked inside the canyon again. He was still worried about the tens of thousands of Xizhou troops.
"Actually, Mr. He, it's a bit redundant to think about this now." Li Qian said with a smile.
"Why?" He Rong said.
"Because on the way here, I seem to have heard that the prince went to fight Prince Jing." Li Qian said with a smile.
