Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 240: Chasing Prince Su

When Situ Jing and the people from the guard camp rushed to Prince Su's Mansion, Prince Su's Mansion was already empty.

A large number of medicinal materials were found in the cellar of Prince Su's Mansion, all of which were needed for epidemic diseases.

With this batch of medicinal materials, the epidemic in the capital has been effectively controlled.

Prince Ran Su was still at large, and Situ Jing led his men in pursuit outside the city.

During the long night, a dozen horses on the official road galloped away into the distance under the cover of darkness.

The man on the horse was dusty and looked a little tired.

This group of people was Prince Su and his secret guards. There were clearly dozens of people when they entered the city.

Along the way, there were constant assassinations, and in the end there were only a dozen people left.

The road ahead was dangerous, and they did not dare to rest. After all, the pursuers behind them were chasing after them.

The night was dark, and they didn't know where they had fled. The horse at the front suddenly stopped, and the man stared sharply at the looming figure in the woods ahead.

He turned sideways and said to the person next to him: "Master, they are coming!"

"Uncle Emperor!" In the dark night, a group of people came out of the woods. The one at the front was Situ Jing. He looked at Prince Su with a half-smile but said:

"Uncle Huang finally returned to Beijing, why did he leave without saying hello?"

A crescent moon in the sky sheds silver rays from the night sky, illuminating this place.

There was a trace of surprise in Prince Su's eyes, but he calmed down immediately: "Something happened over there in the border city. I have to rush back to deal with it. Why is Prince Jing here so late?"

Situ Jing chuckled and said, "This is not waiting for the emperor's uncle here. Father has decreed that I should take the emperor's uncle back to Beijing to resume his duties."

Prince Su's expression changed and he said indifferently: "Fourth, if you let me go today, when I return to the border town, all my troops will obey your orders. Now that the prince is gone, I am willing to support you as the prince."

Situ Jing said with a sneer on his face: "The prince and the queen were deceived by Prince Su and ended up in a miserable end. The emperor's uncle also knew that I was used to idleness since childhood and had no interest in the throne. The emperor's uncle still put down the knife in his hand and followed Let me go back!"

Prince Su's face darkened: "I have no involvement in the matter of the Queen and Prince, and it is none of my business."

"Whether it's none of your business or not, Father will decide for himself." As he said this, Situ Jing evoked a devilish smile: "I found a large amount of medicinal materials for treating diseases in the Emperor's uncle's mansion. If this matter has anything to do with the Emperor, It doesn’t matter, uncle, how can the emperor explain these medicinal materials?”

"Father has said that if the uncle is not willing to follow me back to the capital, then he will be killed without mercy!"

Seeing that Situ Jing didn't show any concern for him, Prince Su snorted coldly: "Prince Jing doesn't think he wants to stop me with so many people, does he?"

Situ Jing's face tightened: "Although there are not many people, it is enough."

After saying that, he waved his hands behind him, and the two sides immediately started fighting. The sound of swords clashing caused the birds in the forest to flap their wings and scatter in all directions.

It wasn't until he saw people around him being injured one after another that Prince Su realized that King Jing, who seemed to be laid back and friendly on the surface, was not a complete idiot.

The people he brought should not be underestimated. The secret guard beside him quickly came to him and gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, go first, my subordinates will cover you!"

Seeing that he wanted to escape, Situ Jing snorted: "If you want to escape, don't even think about it!"

"It's not your turn to decide whether our master should stay or go." The secret guard said, raising the sword in his hand and heading towards Situ Jing.

Situ Jing's face was stern, and the long sword in his hand was as fast as lightning. He avoided the moves of the secret guard and quickly blocked Prince Su's path.

Prince Su had no choice but to draw his sword and fight. Just as the secret guard was about to step forward to help, the secret guard next to Situ Jing immediately stepped forward and entangled him.

He had no time to take care of himself for a while and could only keep dealing with the people in front of him.

Prince Su has been on the battlefield for a long time and has sharp killing moves, but Situ Jing's sword moves are flexible and he can do it with ease.

Prince Su was old after all, and he was running around for days without sleep, and soon the moves in his hands showed signs of exhaustion.

A glimmer of light flashed in Situ Jing's eyes, and the sword in his hand became more and more flexible. Prince Su was temporarily out of spirits.

The sword in his hand was knocked away by Situ Jing, and his hands were unable to resist the sharp sword. He watched Situ Jing's long sword pierce into his flesh without mercy.

The bright red blood slowly flowed down the sword blade, dyeing the gray clothes red.

Prince Su clutched the severe pain in his chest and slowly knelt on the ground.

The most powerful secret guard around him lost his mind when he saw this scene, and was stabbed by the opponent. He covered the wound on his body and tried to help Prince Su up.

However, who would give in between life and death? The sword penetrated his body without hesitation.

He looked at Prince Su who was kneeling on the ground with reluctance in his eyes, but within a moment he lost his breath.

Situ Jing looked at the body lying on the ground and sighed: "If you don't go back to the capital, you can live the rest of your life peacefully in the border town, why bother?"

....................

In the Yongshou Palace, it was a quiet night. The Queen Mother knelt devoutly in front of the Buddha, chanting words in her mouth, and gently traced the beads with her fingers.

Suddenly, the night wind blew through an unclosed window and rushed in, causing the candles in front of the Buddha statue to flicker. The Queen Mother was shocked, tightened her fingers, and tore the threads of the beads, causing them to fall everywhere. Come on.

Suddenly the door of the palace was opened, and in the dark night, a figure walked in from outside the house covered in night.

The Queen Mother was stunned, and when the figure walked into the light, she realized that the person coming was Situ Lin.

He walked up to the Queen Mother expressionlessly, and the Queen Mother stood up slowly while supporting the elder beside her.

Situ Lin looked at the Buddha statue in front of him with a gloomy expression, and said coldly: "The Queen Mother eats fast and chants Buddha's name all day long. How many sins have she committed that need to be repaid?"

The Queen Mother knew the purpose of his visit today and said solemnly: "Is Your Majesty here to punish the Ai family today? Don't forget that you promised the late emperor that after you succeed to the throne, you will treat the Ai family as your biological mother and support you until you grow old."

Situ Lin snorted coldly: "If my father knew that you were willing to kill the children of your ministers in order to let your son take charge of the government, he would probably regret what you said that day."

Seeing the murderous intent in Situ Lin's eyes, the Queen Mother walked up to him and said in a painful voice: "Emperor, although you are not the biological son of the Ai family, you lost your mother when you were young, and the Ai family regarded you as one of their own, and later treated you as one of their own. The power will support you to the throne."

"The Aijia does not ask you to treat the Aijia well, but I ask you to spare my son's life."

Situ Lin stared at the white-haired old man in front of him without saying a word, and said coldly: "It's too late!"

"What's too late? Kill him!" The Queen Mother's voice began to tremble.

Seeing that Situ Lin didn't speak, the Queen Mother was shocked. She pointed at Situ Lin and cursed: "You are so cruel. My son only hurt an eye to save you. Now you actually kill him. The Ai family raised you." Adult, is this how you repay the Aijia?"
