Chapter 623: Chapter 382: Closing the Net! (End of the month finale, asking for monthly pass)_2

"That’s right! They have already entered the narrows!"

Pei Zhan clenched his teeth: "Why wasn’t I informed earlier?!"

"Old Five!" At this moment, Liang Zhi stepped forward and pulled him aside, "This matter is not simple, I’m afraid Gao Changyuan isn’t that bold."

"General!"

Just as those words were spoken, Guo Song also rushed in: "Urgent news from the capital city, it was sent by the Young Madam urging the courier to ride fast for five hundred miles!"

Upon hearing this, Pei Zhan’s heart sank, and he immediately tore open the letter. Stunned upon reading it, he looked up at Liang Zhi: "How did the matter about the Eldest Prince get leaked?!"

Liang Zhi, hearing this, also took the letter over and, after reading it, exclaimed in surprise: "This matter has already spread? Who did this!"

Underground, Luo Zhao shivered violently upon hearing this and immediately cast his gaze toward Gao Changyuan!

Gao Changyuan responded calmly: "This matter is also our doing!"

"What?!"

Pei Zhan and Liang Zhi shouted in unison.

Gao Changyuan, however, looked calmly outside the barracks: "There is something I indeed deceived you about. In fact, I already knew about Mr. Yang’s identity regarding the Eldest Prince before he arrived.

"So everything I’ve done these past few days was just an act."

As he spoke, the sound of clanging weapons echoed throughout the venue.

All of Pei Zhan’s and Liang Zhi’s men drew their long swords.

But Gao Changyuan remained completely unflustered. He took out a brocade document from his arms and respectfully presented it to Pei Zhan:

"The reason is detailed in this document. Please, General Pei, take a look."

Pei Zhan’s expression was already grim. Now, he quickly snatched the brocade document, and after reading it, his face paled instantly!

The handwriting on the brocade document was so familiar, and the seal at the signature place was even more familiar to him!...

"General..." At this moment, Guo Song couldn’t help but speak up, "I have another matter to report. Just on my way here, I encountered Chen Song.

"He brought a message from Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang had already contacted King Dongzi Jin Xu the day before yesterday and led their troops to surround the rear of the rebel forces with the confidants of King Dongzi’s top generals!

"Chen Song said that Mr. Yang intercepted messages from the rebels, indicating that there was an eight-to-ninth chance that Lian Yang would reach Dayue and join forces with the rebels through the passage at Yangjiao Pass!" 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Pei Zhan swiftly pulled back the brocade document, looked up towards the direction of the checkpoint, clenched his fists, and said, "Then what are we waiting for! Immediately order the transfer of five thousand elite troops to block Yangjiao Pass and follow me to charge through!"

"Yes, sir!"

Liang Zhi responded loudly and immediately went to mobilize the troops.

Pei Zhan looked at Luo Zhao on the ground, then glanced at the complete palm print left by Lian Yang on his hand, and said, "——Go open the gate!"

After saying this, he strode toward the checkpoint: "Those present, follow me first! Quickly apprehend the imperial criminal and then return triumphantly!"

...

The northwest witnessed a sleepless night, and as the five thousand elite troops entered the narrows of Yangjiao Pass, all the lights along the line lit up.

At the same time, the sound of war drums resounded, and the dust stirred by the horses’ hooves filled the air. This was a battle to uproot the threat and also a battle that must be settled; no one dared to neglect their duties or let down their guard.

Meanwhile, as the echo of swords and horses clashed, chaos erupted in the capital city.

At this moment, the moon was high in the sky, and midnight had passed. Yet, the General Mansion was packed with people: Pei Yu and Mrs. Pei sat at the top, with Liang Chen and his wife present, Mrs. Cheng and her family, and even Du Mingqian’s father, Du Xun, along with his eldest and second brothers, filled the room. Everyone sat solemnly.

"Why didn’t you say anything earlier?" Du Xun stroked the armrest, expressing three parts of light annoyance and three parts of worry, "Now it’s great, the entire court knows that King Yan is a fake Prince, and there’s no one to succeed the throne in the palace. The Great Zhou’s fate is at stake! There’s still the remnants of Dayue being dealt with in the northwest, with the Emperor in such a state in the palace, with such chaos, what can be done? You all! Alas!"

In the end, this was directed at the Pei couple, who usually lived carefree and leisurely lives. Now, they looked at each other and couldn’t utter a word.

The Liang Chen couple tried to mediate: "This concerns the reputation of the Imperial Family, it’s understandable that Uncle Pei and the others kept it secret."

Who could have predicted such a situation? It turned out Mr. Yang was actually Yang Yi, the long-lost First Prince they had lamented over many times. Moreover, knowledge of Yang Yi’s connections with King Yan was only known to the Pei family and the Empress, at the very most including Mrs. Ning. They were all family, and now leaks emerged suddenly, causing panic among these people!
