Chapter 1088 Can’t Laugh
Shen Zhengqing was slightly stunned by the appearance of Shen Wanying.
The person in front of him gave him a sense of déjà vu.
Shen Wanying seemed to know that her question was a bit abrupt, and immediately revealed her identity:
"The person standing in front of you is the crown prince. I am Shen Wanying. You should have heard of my name."
Shen Zhengqing was overjoyed, and immediately knelt on the ground, shouting: "Your Highness, please save my relatives!"
He banged his forehead against the ground, asking for help: "As long as you bring people over, you will definitely be able to save them!"
Chu Ning looked at the man who was covered in mud and looked very embarrassed, but still asking for help. He could not help but nodded slightly:
"Alright, stand up and talk. For the Crown Princess' sake, since I have encountered this matter, I will naturally not stand idly by."
"But you need to tell me clearly, how many people are there on the other side?"
Shen Zhengqing thought for a moment before saying, "It was too dark last night, and they came too suddenly. They were all cavalry, so I had no idea how many of them there were."
"However, they killed all of my dozen carriages in half an hour. I believe they must have at least hundreds of people."
Hundred people?
Chu Ning narrowed his eyes, and a hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes: "A mere hundred cavalrymen actually dare to be so violent!"
"Zhao Yu, tell everyone to move at full speed and rush to the crime scene immediately."
"Yes!"
Zhao Yu immediately shouted behind him: "Full speed ahead!"
Shen Zhengqing quickly stood up and shouted, "Give me a horse and I will lead the way for you."
Chu Ning raised his eyebrows, revealing a hint of surprise.
Even though this person is in such a state, he still wants to lead the way for them. He is really filial.
Shen Wanying was also somewhat relieved, but she still persuaded him, "You finally managed to escape, you must be tired, why don't you take my carriage and go together?"
"No!"
Shen Zhengqing gritted his teeth and said, "Ride faster, I want to rush over to rescue people as soon as possible."
Seeing his firm attitude, Shen Wanying didn't want to disappoint him, so she could only look up at Chu Ning:
"Your Highness, please give him a warhorse and let him lead the way."
"Since my beloved concubine is begging for mercy, I will give him a war horse!"
Chu Ning pointed at a white horse cavalryman and said, "Give the horse to him!"
Soon, under the leadership of Shen Zhengqing, the White Horse Cavalry advanced quickly towards the crime scene.
The White Horse Cavalry was very fast and they galloped twenty miles in an hour!
However, what they saw was a ground full of corpses. The pungent smell of blood and the still flowing blood were very dazzling in the sunlight.
"Ah...you...how could you be like this? Why is this happening?"
Shen Zhengqing was horrified, jumped off his horse and rushed to the scene.
After searching through each carriage, the panic on his face grew more and more.
"Impossible, impossible, how come you are all dead?"
Shen Zhengqing couldn't accept the reality and screamed as he ran towards another carriage not far away.
Chu Ning frowned and gestured for the two white horse cavalrymen to follow.
At this moment, Shen Wanying also got off the carriage. Looking at the corpse in front of her, tears immediately filled her eyes.
She covered her mouth and shook her head continuously, unable to utter a single word.
Chu Ning sighed, held her in his arms, and comforted her softly, "I have already sent someone to check. If there is anyone alive, I will tell you as soon as possible."
Shen Wanying just cried without saying anything, and the guilt on her face was visible to the naked eye.
She felt that she was the one who harmed these people.
If she hadn't allowed these people to come to Kyoto, perhaps this scene wouldn't have happened.
She didn't understand why things turned out like this!
Just at this moment, Zhao Yu came back to report after checking.
Chu Ning noticed that Zhao Yu's face was not very good, so he shook his head at him and signaled him not to speak.
Since the other party dares to take action, he will naturally not leave anyone alive.
Before Zhao Yu could speak, Chu Ning already knew the answer.
Shen Wanying, who was held by Chu Ning, was not a fool. She already knew the result from Zhao Yu's expression.
"General Zhao, tell me... the truth, is it true that there are no survivors?" Shen Wanying asked with a trembling voice, suppressing the pain in her heart.
Zhao Yu looked embarrassed and didn't dare to answer. He could only look up at Chu Ning.
Seeing Chu Ning nod, he bowed and saluted: "Reporting to the Crown Princess, no one survived the scene, even the carriage and the guards were all killed."
Shen Wanying, who was already furious, suddenly felt dizzy when she heard the words and fell down.
Chu Ning was quick-witted and quick-handed, and he was already rubbing her, so when he saw Shen Wanying fall, he immediately reached out to support her.
"Xiaoqing, take care of Wanying in the car!"
Chu Ning carried Shen Wanying into the carriage and asked Xiaoqing to take good care of her.
After dealing with Shen Wanying, Chu Ning went to check the scene in person.
At this time, Shen Zhengqing, who had just gone to check, was carried back by two white horse cavalrymen.
Chu Ning frowned and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
"Your Highness, we just found a carriage. The man shouted 'Grandma' and then fainted."
This answer was within Chu Ning's expectations.
Chu Ning waved his hand and said, "Take good care of him. Zhao Yu, take the people to clean up the battlefield."
"Yes!"
At an order, Zhao Yu led his men to clean up the bodies.
Although we are late, we cannot just leave these bodies like this.
Suddenly, the White Horse Cavalry began to get busy.
But at this moment, the sound of horse hooves came from afar.
Zhao Yu, who had the highest martial arts skills, was the first to notice something was wrong. He looked up into the distance and saw a cloud of dust rising.
His face changed slightly, Zhao Yu jumped onto his warhorse and looked into the distance.
All I saw were black cavalrymen rushing towards this side from all directions, their numbers far outnumbering the white cavalrymen!
"Oh no! They are coming with bad intentions!"
Zhao Yu's face changed drastically, and he shouted in a deep voice, "Everyone, immediately form a defensive formation to protect the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess!"
At the command, the White Horse Cavalrymen who were originally carrying corpses put down what they were doing, picked up their weapons, mounted their horses, and formed a defensive formation.
With Shen Wanying's carriage as the center, the outer circle was filled with white horse cavalry.
Chu Ning narrowed his eyes, looked at the cavalry charging at him, and said in a cold voice: "There is actually a cavalry outside the capital city!"
"Although there are only a few hundred people, this is enough to prove that person's strength far exceeds my expectations!"
It goes without saying that these cavalrymen must have been secretly created by the mastermind behind the scenes.
He was very curious about who had the ability and financial resources to build a cavalry!
You have to know that the war horses, armor and weapons required by cavalry are far superior to those of ordinary infantry. Even princes and nobles cannot afford to support a cavalry of hundreds of people!
Zhao Yu's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, be careful. Since these people dare to come, they must be fully prepared. We should be careful."
But Chu Ning raised his lips slightly and chuckled, "My White Horse Cavalry can fight ten people at once, let alone a few hundred people!"
He was very confident in the White Horse Cavalry he formed!
But soon, he stopped laughing.
