The Fifth Prince came to Yancheng to reward the Wei family army, which was a great honor to the Wei family army.

Because Chu Heng was apparently on the side of the prince, the Wei family army, who were unaware of the situation, also regarded Chu Heng as half of their own, so Chu Heng had a smooth journey to Yancheng.

The two rows of soldiers stood in neat rows. When they saw Chu Heng and his group coming over, they all saluted loudly.

"See Your Highness the Fifth Prince."

Several main generals under Wei Tiankuang came out, but Wei Tiankuang himself was nowhere to be seen.

"Your Highness has worked hard on the journey. Our general has prepared wine and food to welcome you. Please come in."

Even if one has made great contributions, the king is still the king and the minister is still the minister.

When he arrived, Wei Tiankuang did not come to greet him. It was truly that only the Wei family was supreme.

Although the prince is said to be arrogant, in fact the most arrogant person in the Wei family is Wei Tiankuang.

Chu Heng curled his lips, without any displeasure on his face. He just nodded slightly and walked forward.

When I arrived at the front hall, I saw Wei Tiankuang sitting at the top.

Chu Heng raised his eyes and looked at the legendary guardian god of Dongling. He was dressed in military uniform, with a resolute face, sharp eyes, and a majestic aura without even being angry.

However, his hair was already white and his forehead and eyes were covered with wrinkles.

When Wei Tiankuang saw Chu Heng, he stood up calmly and bowed to Chu Heng: "This old minister greets His Highness the Fifth Prince."

Wei Tiankuang secretly observed the fifth prince. He saw that he was wearing a dark purple brocade robe with wide sleeves, with long black hair draped over his shoulders. He had a gentle smile on his face and exuded an elegant demeanor.

His appearance is 50% similar to the late crown prince, but he lacks the former crown prince's fortitude and arrogance.

This was consistent with the information he had received, but he did not let his guard down.

Chu Heng's face was full of smiles, and there was admiration in his eyes: "General Wei's demeanor is even better than before."

Wei Tiankuang waved his hand: "I am old. When I met Your Highness today, you looked so majestic and handsome. This reminded me of the eldest prince."

Chu Heng clenched his fists tightly under his sleeves.

He even dared to mention his royal brother to him!

"Your Highness the Fifth Prince has been exhausted from the journey. I have prepared some wine for you. Please come in."

"Please, General." Chu Heng raised his hand with a very humble attitude.

Chu Heng and Wei Tiankuang sat side by side at the top, with tables lined up on both sides below, all of which were occupied by Wei Tiankuang's confidants.

Chu Heng took a look and saw Jiang Xiubai sitting at the second desk below. He was indeed highly valued by Wei Tiankuang.

"Come! Let us first thank His Majesty for sending us so many good things." Wei Tiankuang raised his glass to the sky and drank it all in one gulp.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone raised their glasses and drank the wine.

Chu Heng took a sip and smacked his lips: "Tsk, good wine!"

"This is the imperial wine sent by Your Highness the Fifth Prince. It is indeed a good wine. The wine we drank before did not have any taste of alcohol at all." A general below exclaimed in praise, and it was obvious that he was a wine lover.

"Then let's not go home until we are drunk today! Drink!"

Chu Heng drank one glass after another. After a few drinks by a group of grown men, the scene began to become lively.

"Fifth Prince, come, let me toast you!"

Chu Heng drank it with a smile.

"Come, Fifth Prince, I'll toast you too. Your cup is too small. Men like us should eat meat with big mouthfuls and drink wine with big bowls. Come, quickly change a big bowl for Fifth Prince."

Chu Heng waved his hand: "No, no, I can't handle the alcohol..."

"Hey, today we are going to drink to our heart's content. I'll drink first!"

Chu Heng was helpless and had to drink half the bowl of wine.

"Come, Your Highness, I will toast you too..."

Chu Heng was a very humble and good-tempered person, but in the eyes of a group of soldiers, he was just lukewarm and easy to bully.

Seeing Chu Heng's face turning red all the way to his neck, his eyes gradually becoming blurred, and his words becoming unclear, Wei Tiankuang glanced at him and slowly drank the wine in his glass.

"Come, Your Highness..."

"No, no." Chu Heng waved his hands.

Then he fell onto the table with a thud and lost consciousness.

"Your Highness?"

"Are you drunk?"

Shan Lan stepped forward, glanced at the four empty jars on the table, and said in a cold voice: "If these four jars of imperial wine are consumed, even a god would be drunk."

Wei Tiankuang's eyes flashed with a smile, and he glared at his soldiers: "You drunkards, you are really reckless!"

The soldiers returned to their seats laughing and began to eat and drink.

Wei Tiankuang looked at Chi Zhang and the other two and said, "My men are not serious. Please help the Fifth Prince back to his room first."

Chi Zhang cupped his hands: "Yes."

Chi Zhang and Shan Lan helped the unresponsive Chu Heng out.

Wei Tiankuang ordered: "Let the military doctor go over and take a look, make sure nothing happens."

In the room, the military doctor carefully felt the patient's pulse, prescribed a sobering decoction, and then left.

As soon as the military doctor left, the person on the bed quietly opened his eyes and a scornful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

In the study, Wei Tiankuang looked at the military doctor: "How is it?"

"General, the Fifth Prince has indeed been poisoned by a drug that will wipe out his heirs, like the Judge of Life and Death's Wuxi. There is no antidote for this drug."

Wei Tiankuang raised his hand: "Go down."

"Yes."

After the military doctor left, military advisor Zhou Xiao slowly spoke: "A prince was given a drug that would make him lose his heirs. He has almost no chance of becoming emperor. It is impossible for him not to hate it. The Fifth Prince may be trustworthy."

Wei Tiankuang didn't say anything.

The next day, Chu Heng was awakened by the sound of a horn. When he looked outside, it was still dark.

He turned over and continued to sleep.

Chi Zhang came in and said, "Your Highness, General Wei sent someone to invite you. He said he would take you around the military camp. Do you want to get up?"

"I am now an idle prince who is powerless and I was drunk yesterday. It would be strange if I could get up."

Chi Zhang frowned: "Is he testing me?"

"Well, you go out first and come back after 9:00 p.m."

Chi Zhang turned and left the room.

Wei Tiankuang and his group were waiting outside. When they saw the soldiers he sent out come back, they did not see Chu Heng.

"General, the Fifth Prince's guards said that the Fifth Prince is still drunk."

Upon hearing this, all the soldiers looked disdainful and snorted with laughter.

Wei Tiankuang had a hint of smile in his eyes: "Forget it, Your Highness drank too much yesterday, I will accompany Your Highness after lunch, let's go first."

The group went towards the military camp, and Jiang Xiubai followed behind, seemingly thinking about something.

He had seen the Fifth Prince fighting in the Huguo Temple, and it could be said that his kung fu was unmatched in Dongling.

His internal strength was enough to force the wine out of his body.

He dared to conclude that Chu Heng was pretending.

He and Cheng Jiuyuan are really a perfect match, and each one is more alike than the other.

But isn't Chu Heng a member of the Crown Prince's faction? Why does he still need to hide his strength?

He suddenly thought of Cheng Jiuyuan again, and he began to suspect that it was Cheng Jiuyuan who reminded him of this.

In other words, Cheng Jiuyuan and the Wei family don't get along.

Cheng Jiuyuan is Chu Heng's fiancée.

It seems that the Fifth Prince is siding with the Crown Prince on the surface, but in reality...

Are you on Chu Ze's side?

No matter which side he stands on, as long as it is against the prince and the Wei family, it will be a help to him.

To bring down Wei Tiankuang, his power alone was too weak.

But if he went to Chu Heng like this, Chu Heng would not believe him. He had to show some sincerity.

"Deputy General Jiang, what are you thinking about? Did you hear what we just said?"

"Huh? What? I was drunk yesterday, and I got up early today, so my brain is still a little slow."

"The general said, let's think of some ideas to entertain His Highness the Fifth Prince. We suggest that we book the largest brothel in Yancheng and let His Highness the Fifth Prince have fun."

Jiang Xiubai looked at Wei Tiankuang.

Wei Tiankuang did not completely believe the Fifth Prince's greed for pleasure, and he was afraid that going to the brothel was just another test.

If the Fifth Prince behaves in any abnormal way, I'm afraid he will never be able to return to the capital.

If the Fifth Prince is really a person who is greedy for pleasure, this can cater to his taste.

Without waiting for Jiang Xiubai to speak, Wang Man said in a loud voice: "I think it's great, we can also benefit from it. Xiaobai, you are not a child anymore, you are still a virgin, right? Brother will take you to eat meat tonight."

Jiang Xiubai's face flushed a little: "You guys go, I won't go."

Since everyone is going, maybe tonight is an opportunity.

"Why are you so boring? Don't you know that the girls in that building have thin waists..."

Wei Tiankuang glanced at Jiang Xiubai, his eyes dark and unclear.

"Then you should stay in the barracks."

Jiang Xiubai secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes."
