Chapter 53 Dong Chenghu persuades, Zhang Xingchi twists

Zhang Xingchi tightly held the fist in his hand and stubbornly said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Dong Chenghu was even more angry and said angrily: "If uncle doesn't come here today, would you have to do your own thing? Think about how you promised him to you! Think about your brother, think about the souls of the Zhang family in the spirit of heaven. Do you think they hope you will die in order to avenge them, or do you hope you will live well on their behalf!

I will never forget the way Housekeeper Zhang entrusted you two brothers to me, and the wet nurse, who resolutely went to death to cover your brothers' departure. If something happened to you because of revenge, how could you be worthy of their sacrifice?"

Dong Chenghu can never forget that night in his life. It was the first time he did such a dangerous thing. He still remembers everything about that night. Thinking of Butler Zhang’s arrangements and the determination of the wet nurse, he decided not to let the child harm him because of impulse.

Zhang Xingchi's body was trembling, lowering his head and saying nothing, but he looked like he was about to collapse.

Yu Yi sighed and said, "Master Xingchi, don't forget the great cause of my master. He has promised you that once Daliang is overthrown, he will definitely make the affairs of the Zhang family public and will definitely seek justice for the Zhang family. Not only the Zhang family, but also many families who have encountered like the Zhang family.

And the master also said that after the matter is completed, the order of the Prince Peace King is for you to deal with, so why should you be anxious for a moment? If the assassination fails, you will be arrested or killed instead, have you ever thought about what will happen to those who care about you?"

Yu Yi knew how much Song Youxin valued Zhang Xingchi, and at this time he didn't want anything to happen to Zhang Xingchi. After all, Zhang Xingchi and Song Qingqing grew up together. If their affairs were accomplished, Song Qingqing would never be sad in the future. In that way, his master would be more worried and could also prevent some people with ulterior motives from attacking Song Qingqing. Therefore, Zhang Xingchi is good for everyone when he is alive, and if he dies, it will not be as simple as one or two people.

After Yu Yi and Dong Chenghu talked, they both stared at Zhang Xingchi seriously. The two of them were bound to convince Zhang Xingchi to give up this stupid idea.

The two sides were in such a stalemate, and no one was willing to give in. Dong Chenghu refused to let Zhang Xingchi leave, and Zhang Xingchi could not disobey his respected Uncle Dong.

Until a soldier came in outside to report, Dong Chenghu frowned and looked at Zhang Xingchi with a grudge, and said in a deep voice: "You are not allowed to go anywhere today, sit there and calm down."

After saying that, he let the soldiers outside come in.

"Report to General Yu, Prince Cheng, and Prince Peace King, and found out where the place where Prince Peace King was settled." As soon as the soldiers came in, they immediately knelt down to Dong Chenghu and Yu Yi and said respectfully.

Dong Chenghu looked at Zhang Xingchi who was in great mood around him, and without saying a word, he asked the visitor: "Where are they now? What are the troops around? Also, how many 500,000 troops from the court have arrived? What are their plans?"

"When I returned to my son, the prince, Prince Ping, went his separate ways after leaving Jiankang. The two did not go directly to Xin'an County, but secretly sneaked to another place. According to the spy, the prince went to Lujiang County, and the king of Ping went to Baling County. Because Baling County was far away, the two did not arrive in Xin'an County together.

Now the prince of Prince Heping who arrived in Xin'an County is fake. I am afraid that when will the real prince of Prince Heping arrive in Xin'an County."

This news surprised Dong Chenghu and others, especially Zhang Xingchi, who had already designed the revenge plan, but now he told him that the prince of Prince Peace King who arrived in Xin'an County was fake, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to him.

After being surprised, Dong Chenghu and Yu Yi both breathed a sigh of relief. Since it was not the Prince of Prince Peace himself, Zhang Xingchi should have given up the assassination plan. Seeing his insanity, Dong Chenghu felt a little reluctant and forced himself to make a heartless word of comfort. He had to let Zhang Xingchi learn some lessons, and it was also blamed for protecting this child too well that he was so ignorant of the world!

"What else? What is the current situation of the imperial court's troops?" After Zhang Xingchi gave up the assassination plan, Yu Yi was most concerned about the enemy's troops. He also had to adjust the combat plan according to the opponent's situation.

The soldiers didn't know why Yu Yi and Dong Chenghu were in such a good mood after hearing this news. The adults' thoughts were indeed not something they could guess. The soldier thought quickly and said, "Return to Master Yu, the 500,000 troops have only reached 100,000 now. Originally, the prince and King Ping each brought 100,000, but these two men were very proud of their lives. They took away 30,000 troops as guards, leaving only 140,000 troops."

Dong Chenghu knocked on the chair from time to time, and a deep look flashed across his face, "Now these 140,000 people have just arrived in Xin'an County, plus the previous 100,000 people, the court has 240,000 people stationed in Xin'an County. If both sides start fighting, we only have 70% chance of winning. Once the prince, King Peace, brings the remaining 60,000 troops, I am afraid we will not even have a five-point chance of winning. After all, our troops are of varying quality, and the soldiers on the other side have been transferred from the frontier, and we have truly seen blood!"

Yu Yi frowned. The situation in front of him was so serious that they were afraid that they could not even delay for a moment. "The 200,000 troops must be destroyed before the 60,000 troops arrived, otherwise we would have to wait for the destruction."

Zhang Xingchi stumbled for a few moments and wanted to say something. Seeing that Dong Chenghu and Yu Yi had no intention of listening to his opinion, he had to continue to remain silent.

Dong Chenghu was not surprised by Yu Yi's suggestion at all, but sighed: "Yu Yi, the 200,000 army has 240,000 lives. I am not saying how compassionate I am, but I am asking me to attack these 240,000 people. I can't overcome this hurdle in my heart. Otherwise, let's think of a way to make these people lose their combat capabilities and save their lives?"

Dong Chenghu knew that his approach was a bit kind, but he was not a murderer, and he was even more unwilling to face those people head-on. Now the best way is to come to the dark side and make the other party lose the ability to fight.

Yu Yiyi heard this and looked at Dong Chenghu with bright eyes, saying with anticipation: "Young Master Cheng has any good suggestions, it's okay to just say it. I don't like fighting or killing. If you can knock down these 240,000 troops without any effort, I will give them no combat ability for a long time."

In an instant, he thought of Dong Chenghu's poisons and wondered if Dong Chenghu could come up with something good this time. If Dong Chenghu really had such good things, they would have a turnaround.
