Chapter 715: Enemies on a narrow road

I visited the Guojiazhuang with great interest. The sky was already dim. People who accompanied me came to urge me, saying that I would close the city gate in another one and a half hours. If I didn’t leave, I would have to spend the night outside the city tonight.

Chen Ji ordered the man to put down the bedding, cleaned up a bedroom, and said to Chen Ao: "Your Highness, please come back. With me here, I will definitely live up to your expectations in three months."

Zhao Ji nodded, hurried out, got on the carriage, and more than a dozen guards rode their horses in front of them. The groom urged the horse to rush back to Bianjing in the sunset.

Fortunately, there were official roads along the way, and the carriage was fast, so Chen Ao was sitting in the carriage. He was afraid that it would be delayed, so he galloped all the way and rushed to Donghua Gate in just one hour. The gatekeeper in the city gate saw the carriage of King Pingxi, and even raised his waist and chest and watched the carriage.

After entering the city, the speed of the carriage slowed down. Chen Ao saw that there were few people outside the curtain of the car. He knew that it was dinner, and even the peddlers who usually walked around the streets were missing. The sky seemed to be dyed with a layer of gold, and the rays of light illuminated the hazy sky. The afterglow of dusk fell outside the car, and the indescribable depression was sad.

The navy and the Jinyiwei are all ready now, everything is ready, it's just the east wind. Chen Ao thought in his heart that time could not be delayed, and the crisis suddenly approached. Perhaps it was the end of this year or the beginning of next spring. Once the crisis broke out, the consequences would be disastrous. He leaned in the cushion, thinking about it, but the carriage stopped abruptly at this time.

Chen Ao just thought that he had arrived at the palace and looked out the window, but found that it was still Changpingfang, which was still far from the palace. At this time, there was no one on the road. Is there a traffic jam? Chen Ao opened the curtain and it was indeed a traffic jam. Opposite to Shen Ao's carriage, a carriage that was not luxurious but noble enough stopped steadily. The two strong horses pulling the car were digging the ground with their hooves, looking a little uneasy and gasping. There was no movement in the carriage. However, dozens of guards on both sides of the carriage were standing on horseback, looking at Chen Ao with malicious intentions.

"Your Highness, it's the prince's carriage." The driver sitting on the shaft whispered.

Chen Aohe nodded, lowered the curtain, and said, "Let them get out of here."

In fact, the road is not narrow, enough for two carriages to go their own way, but the prince's carriage blocked the road in the middle, and ordinary carriages passed along the gaps on both sides. But how could the carriages of the Pingxi Prince's Mansion pass by in shame?

The captain who was standing on horseback listened to Chen Ao's orders and rushed forward to negotiate with the other party, saying aloud: "This is the car of the King of Pingxi. Your Highness asks you to give in, so don't waste your highness's time."

There was no sound in the carriage opposite, but the prince's guard couldn't help it at this time and sneered: "Who is King Pingxi? I, Liu Sande, have never heard of it, but the prince sitting here is the current dynasty. You are blind and you dare to block the way of the crown prince!"

The captain was already popular, but he still didn't dare to be arrogant when he heard the word "Crown Prince". He had to come back and said, "Your Highness, what do you mean? Should you break through or give in?"

Chen Ao said lightly: "There is no reason to give in to the Tao, but the other party is the prince. How can I force myself to break through? Go to the side."

Chen Ao looked at his nose and his heart, put down the curtain of the car, sat down with a dangerous collar, and stopped saying a word.

On this road, two teams and two carriages seemed to be stunned, and neither of them was willing to take a step back or give up their way.

Occasionally, someone passed by. He looked here in surprise and couldn't help but stop. The prince's carriage was decorated with Huang Ling, which was a symbol of the Eastern Palace. It was obvious to people. But on the other side was a high-headed and big-horse lieutenant. Apart from the official family, I am afraid that no one in Bianjing City can mobilize the lieutenant guards. In this case, there is no need to guess that the other carriage was the King of Pingxi.

If the King Pingxi and the Crown Prince were the number two figures in the world, I am afraid that they would not be able to say it for a while. The Crown Prince was naturally extremely noble and the crown prince of the Song Dynasty. Below one person and above ten thousand people, no one dared to offend him in all dynasties. But in today's court, it is different. Who doesn't know that the most useful thing in the dynasty was the King Pingxi? The King Pingxi was the one who was most favored by the saints! The King Pingxi was the governor of Xixia, and he was in the martial arts school, and he walked in and out of the palace. He was both the prince and the prince-in-law. Even the chief assistant of the dynasty Li Bangyan had to give in, which shows his power.

In the end, more and more people watched. Seeing that the sword was tense here, I didn’t know what was going on? So I talked in a low voice and whispered.

The sky gradually faded, and the people in the carriage were a little stiff. It was fine if Chen Ao fell down, but Zhao Huan was different. He was approaching middle-aged and he felt regretful at this time, but it was fine if he had to be there just now. This dispute was a matter of a moment when he couldn't help but start to provoke it in his heart. Now that so many people are watching, tomorrow, I am afraid that the news will spread everywhere.

The dignified prince actually wanted to give way to a foreign minister. What else does this prince mean? He snorted coldly in his heart and could only continue to waste time.

The sky was already dim, and the lights of thousands of families were lit up. Many people who went to see the lanterns at night also heard the sound of the wind. After eating and drinking, they all came over to see it. Occasionally, a few adults passed by here in sedan chairs. Seeing that the front was full of people, they sent the people behind them to ask. When they heard that it was the prince and the king of Pingxi, they were so scared that their faces looked like earth. They hurriedly asked people to turn the head of the sedan chair and quickly detoured the way.

It’s okay for ordinary people to see it. Anyway, there are many people who see it, so the law does not blame the public. However, when the imperial court ordered officials to see this, they would be unreasonable if they don’t go to persuade them. But what’s the use of persuasion? On one side is the crown prince and the other is the King of Pingxi. Before they persuade them, people might offend them. It’s okay for the crown prince to come over. Isn’t it uncomfortable to meet the naughty person slapped him?

The prince could no longer bear it here, so he stretched his waist in the carriage and coughed. After hearing this, the guards outside understood that one of them had already pulled his horse back. After a cup of tea, he took a few sesame cakes to eat. The sesame cakes tasted really bad, and they were sticky and greasy, but in this situation, they could only try to fill their stomachs as much as possible. As for other facts, they could not count on them.

Chen Ao smelled the fragrance of cakes and laughed at the lieutenant outside in the car, saying, "What is this? Your Highness has always been frugal and will definitely be a wise ruler in the future. Look, is there a prince in this world who eats cakes?"

Chen Ao's voice was full of energy, which made Zhao Huan clearly hear it. Zhao Huan was so angry that he had to throw the sesame cakes down and deliberately said in a lazy tone: "Ceres and grains are all things that are in the stomach. Where is the difference between delicacies and sesame cakes?"

Chen Ao said in the car: "Where are people with high and low status, how can grains be distinguished from high and low? Your Highness is blowing on the street with a noble body, accepting the people's surroundings, and eating pancakes, haha..." The following words can be stopped, but it is not a good thing anyway.

Zhao Huan snorted coldly and said, "Since people have high and low status, I want to ask, why did King Pingxi block my way?"

Chen Ao said seriously: "I brought the token of the official family and really dared not give way to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

This token is naturally the Shangfang sword, which means that I can give way to you, but this imperial sword cannot be given up.

Zhao Huan sneered, but stopped talking.

Although the air was tense, the confrontation between you and you just said something made the street more angry. The two sides were still confronting each other, but the entire Bianjing City was still disturbed by these two old men.

Jingzhao Prefecture did not dare to stand out, but he still sent out a service to drive away all the people who were watching. Even the residents living on both sides of the street were "invited" to go out. The prince and the King of Ping Xi confronted the streets. Of course, this scandal of the Tian family could not be seen. The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture was also in tears and could slump on him. It would be fine to deal with the famous danese yamen in the capital every day, but bump into the prince. The two great Buddhas of the King of Peace and Xi were having fun here, which was considered to be a bad year for him this year. The prefect came over obediently, hesitating whether to salute the prince first or to salute the prince first. Of course, the crown prince was noble, but he couldn't resist the King of Pingxi's temper. He hesitated for a moment, but he knelt in the middle of two carriages, bowed down to the direction of the palace city, and said seriously: "The prefect of the King of Jingzhao Prefecture has met two His Highnesses."

The people in the carriage were too lazy to pay attention to him. The prefect was in trouble at this time, so it would be fine if he ignored him, but he still wanted to pay attention to him, but he knelt on the street and they didn't say it. Isn't this a life? Although it was warm spring, at night, in this empty street, he knelt on the cold bluestone slab, and the cold wind whizzed, really killing people.

At the stalemate, a group of people finally came, but they were from the East Palace. It turned out that the East Palace could not wait for His Royal Highness to come back, so he sent someone to look for it. Later, after hearing the news, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace came with a murderous intent without saying a word. Prince Su has always been low-key, but it does not mean that it is easy to bully. Those who are slaves do not care who the other party is, at least they must show their loyalty in front of the prince.

There were so many people on the prince's side, but it was useless. If they really wanted them to move the carriage of King Pingxi, they didn't have the courage to stare at him. However, when Zhao Huan heard someone coming, he called his eunuch's name: "Chen Rui, did you bring wine?" Zhao Huan was a little weak, and although he could shed the wind in the carriage, he still felt cold. In addition, he had not had dinner, so he wanted to have a drink and drive away the cold.

The eunuch in charge, Chen Rui, was stunned and said, "Your Highness, what should I do if I go back now?"

Zhao Huan was also frustrated for a moment, so he had to say, "Forget it, wait by the side."

Chen Rui hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you want to negotiate with the King of Pingxi?"
