Chapter 2953: Relatives and children as hostages
"Everyone, be careful!" Chu Xuanchen immediately pulled out his Long Xuan sword and stared coldly ahead.
Everyone pulled out their weapons one after another, and all moved to Chu Xuanchen to protect him.
"Hahaha..." At this moment, there was a burst of smug laughter from the crowd in front, "King Li, how dare you deploy troops privately and try to break through, you are so bold!"
As soon as the voice fell, the man rushed to Chu Xuanchen.
Chu Xuanchen took a closer look and found that this person was actually Prince Rui.
Prince Rui was dressed in silver armor, wearing a silver helmet, holding a red cherry spear in his hand, riding on a tall horse, and was looking at Chu Xuanchen proudly.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers behind him had quickly surrounded Chu Xuanchen's people.
When Shen Chengshan and Xue Wuxia saw this, they clenched their swords tightly and waited.
Seeing Prince Rui and others, Chu Xuanchen burst out with murderous aura.
He raised his eyebrows, looking domineering and arrogant, "Prince Rui, you will be away, and your order will not be accepted. You go back and tell the emperor that Princess Li was kidnapped by the spies of Xueyue Kingdom. As her husband, this king must go to Xueyue. Yueguo save her!"
"Saving Princess Li? This king thought it was a big deal. King Li, as a general king, you should guard the capital and protect the emperor's safety. Now you have left the capital privately, do you have the emperor in your eyes?" Prince Rui said coldly.
"Don't you think it's just a trivial matter for this king to save his wife?" Chu Xuanchen shouted angrily, his eyes burning with anger.
Prince Rui sneered, "Do you think your wife's life is more important than the emperor?"
"The emperor's dragon body is healthy, but my wife's life and death are unknown, and it is at stake. As a man, if you can't even protect your own wife, then what kind of man is he?" Chu Xuanchen said angrily.
Shen Chengshan immediately said: "Yes! Princess Li, she hangs a pot to help the world, saves the dying and the wounded, and saves so many people. We should save her, otherwise, wouldn't it be chilling?"
Prince Rui glanced at everyone coldly, and said grimly: "King Li, we are not talking about saving people now. The emperor entrusted you with important tasks, but you dispatched troops to leave without his consent. The emperor sent someone to give you additional There are many imperial decrees urging you to return to Beijing, but you not only ignore it, but you go further and further, and you don’t take the emperor in your eyes at all.”
Having said this, he raised his eyes and said, "Now the emperor has ordered this king to inform you that you should immediately return to the capital with this king. If you dare to forcibly leave the country and leave the country, you will be punished for treason!"
"Treason? You are so loud! If this king has to leave the customs today, what can you do to me?" Chu Xuanchen arrogantly shook the hilt of the sword in his hands.
Prince Rui looked at the soldiers he brought, stretched out his hand, and said sternly, "If you dare to force your way out, don't blame this prince for being rude!"
Chu Xuanchen snorted coldly, "Just because of you, you are not the opponent of Xuan Cejun! If you want to make unnecessary sacrifices, this king will accompany you!"
"Chu Xuanchen!" Prince Rui suddenly said sullenly, "Could it be that you don't even want your brother because of a woman? Look at these soldiers, do you have the heart to let them be charged with treason like you?"
The emperor was afraid that after Chu Xuanchen went to Xueyue Kingdom, he would have the power of Xueyue Kingdom and thus increase his strength, so he asked him to stop Chu Xuanchen.
So today, no matter what, he will stop Chu Xuanchen from leaving the customs.
Hearing Prince Rui's words, Chu Xuanchen's heart trembled.
He looked at the soldiers behind him, and found that they were all dusty and full of wind and frost.
Many soldiers had sunburned skin and chapped lips, but they still stood there strong and supported him.
Looking at these immature faces and clear eyes, his eye sockets suddenly turned red!
These are still young people who have never experienced life, how could he bear to implicate them?
Seeing that Chu Xuanchen's expression was different, Shen Chengshan said hurriedly: "My lord, don't listen to him, don't mind us, it's important to save the princess, we don't care."
Hearing this, Chu Xuanchen clenched the hilt of the sword even more uncomfortable, with a look of grief and indignation.
He suddenly raised his eyes, with scarlet eyes, and said sternly: "Okay! Then this king will not bring Xuan Ce's army, and this king will go out alone!"
Seeing that Chu Xuanchen was unwilling to implicate everyone, the Xuance army was moved.
They were moved to tears, and everyone immediately said: "No! Your Majesty, we have long agreed that we will be with you in life and death, and we will never abandon you."
"Yes, lord, we will go wherever you go. We must rescue Princess Li, if we don't rescue her, we will never return to Beijing!"
"Yes, our Xuan Ce army is like a family, we will never leave the prince, we will not be afraid, we will coexist in life and death."
Hearing the words of the soldiers, Chu Xuanchen was both moved and saddened. He was moved that there were so many soldiers supporting him, and he was very relieved.
He was sad that this would implicate the soldiers.
He had said back then that if he could bring them out, he would bring them home safely.
So he can't just think about himself and not everyone, he must protect everyone.
But on the other side, is the lover who is waiting for his rescue, what should he do?
Seeing Chu Xuanchen in a dilemma, Prince Rui smiled proudly: "King Li, apart from these soldiers, don't you think about your relatives and children?"
"Child?" Chu Xuanchen gritted his teeth angrily, "You said, what did you do to my child?"
Prince Rui sneered: "Don't worry, we didn't do anything to them. But you and Yun Ruoyue are not at home. The emperor was worried that no one would take care of Chu Nanfeng and Chu Tianxing, so he sent two maids to Liwangfu to take care of them. ."
"What?" Chu Xuanchen clenched his fists, his eyes were crimson, and he wanted to tear Prince Rui to pieces.
Mo Li and the others also heard the crowd indignant, and could not wait to fight with Prince Rui!
Prince Rui said: "Don't be nervous, those two maids are the people the emperor trusts very much, and they will definitely treat your children well. There is also the eldest princess, and the people of Li Wangfu, the emperor has sent people to protect them well. So don't worry!"
"Despicable!" Chu Xuanchen gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, his eyes were bloodshot, "You actually take my relatives and children as hostages, you are so despicable!"
Prince Rui said proudly, "Don't worry, as long as you put down your weapons and go back to Beijing with this king, your relatives and children will be fine."
Hearing this, Chu Xuanchen's heart was broken!
He clenched the sword in his hand tightly, and the moment his palm touched the blade, a little bloodshot overflowed.
There are young children on one side and his wife with hair on the other. They are his heart and soul. How does he choose?
He would rather die himself than get them hurt a little.
Only now did he really realize what a dilemma was.
Seeing that Chu Xuanchen was uncomfortable, Prince Rui said again: "King Li, think clearly, do you choose Yun Ruoyue or your child?"
