Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 1596 Chen Changli's Choice

The battle was going on, but the backbone ran away. What kind of thing is this? Han Yi said that, but he was complaining in his heart, and then he focused on the matter at hand, and no longer thought about the consequences of the eighth prince's escape.

His concentration led to a stalemate with Li Keyi.

Not long after, Li Keyi appeared in front of everyone on a tall horse and roared at Han Yi: "The Ninth Prince is the one destined by heaven. You are helping the tyrant and will only die without a burial place."

Seeing Li Keyi jumping out and cursing at him, Han Yi could no longer suppress his anger and yelled, "If I hadn't been trapped here, how could I have come to guard the city gate?"

"The Eighth Prince, that damned bastard, is also a fool. He was caught off guard by you without any preparation."

"If he had made all the preparations during the months since he came to Yongzhou City, why would he let you bark here?"

"You are not the Eighth Prince's confidant." Li Keyi listened to Han Yi's scolding, and a gleam of light flashed in the depths of his eyes, "Who are you? Why are you helping the Eighth Prince?"

"The Ninth Prince is a virtuous man. If you join him, you will have a bright future!"

Li Keyi was trying to win over Hanyi with his words, but Hanyi knew clearly that if his identity was exposed, Li Keyi would be the first person who wanted to kill him.

"What virtuous talent? Stop bragging here. The reason why the Ninth Prince can be supported by so many people is because of you brothers." Han Yi snorted and laughed, then asked many soldiers to be prepared so as not to be caught by Li Keyi for a sneak attack.

"Your Excellency trusts the Eighth Prince very much." Li Keyi was not angry, he just locked Han Yi meaningfully.

"The city gate is about to be breached. In order to save our lives, why not give some trust?" Han Yi said bluntly.

The meaning of his words was very clear. Li Keyi understood it immediately and was sure that Han Yi could not be won over. He could only suppress his anger and continue to lead his men to attack the city.

Hanyi was also on high alert, and the two sides were in a stalemate again, giving some people in the city time to escape.

The soldier who came to look for Chen Changli heard some noise not far away and wanted to ignore it, but when he heard someone calling General Chen, he was slightly startled and ran over happily.

But a woman with eyes that were almost spitting fire asked: "Shouldn't you follow the Eighth Prince to the outer city? Why are you still staying in the inner city?"

Chen Changli just felt that she was baffled, and said in a cold tone: "Capturing Chang Xuewei was a task assigned to me by the Eighth Prince. I would naturally be suspicious of you suddenly jumping out to take over."

"It's really ridiculous that you question me like this instead of explaining it to me."

Chen Changli became angrier and angrier as he spoke. He had already found Chang Xuewei and almost caught her.

Tu Zhizhi suddenly jumped out to target her and let Cao Xuewei escape. He couldn't help but suspect that Tu Zhizhi did it on purpose.

"What I said is true. I don't know why the Ninth Prince went crazy and suddenly sent people to attack Yongzhou City."

"I heard from the Eighth Prince that Yongzhou City could no longer be defended, so I suggested that he take you to guard the city gate and I would take over your duties. I never thought that he would not come to find you."

Tu Zhizhi met Chen Changli's suspicious gaze and was about to explode with anger.

But he had just eased the relationship with the Eighth Prince, how could he let this relationship fall to the extreme again just because of Chen Changli?

She could only suppress her anger, explained the matter quickly, and then urged Chen Changli to go to the outer city.

"Hurry up and go to the outer city to take charge. Otherwise, if Yongzhou City is breached, none of us will survive."

Seeing her anxious expression, Chen Changli frowned slightly, as if trying to determine whether her words were true or false.

After hearing the conversation between the two, the soldier rushed out to tell Chen Changli about the outer city without caring about what the Eighth Prince and Tu Zhizhi had planned. He cried again, "The Eighth Prince said he was coming to find you, but why didn't I see him? Could he have found a way to escape?"

"He won't do that." The soldier suddenly jumped out and Tu Zhizhi was startled.

When she heard his words, she was shocked, but she quickly refuted him, and then said to Chen Changli: "Did you hear that? The situation in the outer city is critical, you have to go and help quickly, otherwise we will be doomed."

She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. Obviously, the critical situation in the outer city made her no longer dare to hold out for luck.

"Chang Xuewei ran in that direction, hurry up and chase her." After Chen Changli said this, he gave Lin Jing a wink and quickly headed for the outer city.

Lin Jing received his eye signal and glared at Tu Zhizhi unhappily, saying in a rather strange tone: "You came at a coincidence, but after hearing your explanation, I believe you have excusable circumstances and did not intentionally help Chang Xuewei escape."

Upon hearing this, Tu Zhizhi rolled her eyes at him and said, "I didn't even know that Chen Changli was going to catch Chang Xuewei. If I had known about this, I would have kept to myself and waited until Chang Xuewei was caught before I could talk about anything else."

She was very regretful now, but she didn't want to show it in front of Lin Jing. She immediately encouraged everyone and led them in the direction where Xuewei ran.

The soldier followed Chen Changli, and only told him what Han Yi had said when they were far away from Tu Zhizhi, and then he stared at Chen Changli eagerly.

"General, the Eighth Prince must have run away. Now this city is under your control, and the people in the city will listen to your orders, so just tell me what you want to do, and I will take people to inform them."

The soldier's words were full of expectations, and he obviously had high hopes for Chen Changli.

Chen Changli suddenly felt that he had a heavy responsibility.

He wanted to remind the soldiers not to think too highly of him.

But when he met the soldiers' anxious eyes, he didn't know what to say, and could only sigh: "I will do my best. As for the matter of the Eighth Prince, don't think too much about it, and don't spread it out, so as not to make the elders and villagers anxious."

The soldier nodded quickly: "That's right, General, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this. I will just let everyone work together to help you stop the enemy."

"That's not necessary." Chen Changli thought for a moment and said, "Take some alert people to keep an eye on Tu Zhizhi. She has a close relationship with the Eighth Prince. If the Eighth Prince intends to escape, she will definitely get the news and chase him."

"Yes." The soldier took action immediately after receiving the instructions.

Chen Changli quickly rushed to the outer city and found Hanyi to find out the situation.

"The situation has stabilized a little." Han Yi asked, "How do you plan to resettle the people in the city? Should we draw young and strong people to help resist the Ninth Prince, or should we resist for a while before abandoning Yongzhou City?"

Chen Changli looked at Li Keyi under the city with a deep gaze. When he met his murderous eyes, he felt a sense of calm in his heart.

"Lord Han, if the Eighth Prince abandons Yongzhou City, the hundreds of thousands of people in Yongzhou City will become the meat paste under the horse of the Ninth Prince, so my choice is to hold on to Yongzhou City."

Han Yi frowned slightly: "The Ninth Prince wants to be the emperor, so the people in Yongzhou City are also his subjects. He won't be so cruel."

"That's not necessarily true. After all, there is another Chang Xuewei in the city." Chen Changli hinted.

Han Yi took a breath and said, "Is Chang Xuewei really helping the Ninth Prince? Didn't she join the Sixth Prince?"
