Chapter 645: Detour
“However, at the same time, it was only 5 miles away from the patrol camp. So although it’s a good place, it’s also extremely dangerous. Once the patrolmen arrive, they will also get in danger.”
“With Chu Feng’s temperament, he always sought stability and will not take such a risk. Therefore, he will not ambush people in Panlong Hill.”
Fu Zheng looked at the map and suddenly said: “If it’s not Panlong Hill, then is it Paoma Valley?”
Hu Feng nodded his head: “Yes, it’s Paoma Valley. This Paomapo seems ordinary, but in fact, there is a dangerous road in the middle. As long as they do some tricks on that road, this ambush will bring them immediate success.”
Zhou Gang asked: “Then, what shall we do?”
Hu Feng said: “Before entering the capital, I don’t want to encounter another trouble again. I don’t have any more time to delay. We will take a detour in Xilin tomorrow and go to the capital.” have trouble again. I don’t have the time to delay with him. I will detour to Xilin tomorrow and go to Beijing.” He just wanted to meet his imperial father soon, and then go to look for Bai Zhi and Hu Changlin. If Chu Feng wanted to fight after that, he will accompany him, but not now.

“What are you talking about? He didn’t come? How is this possible?” Chu Feng stared at the guard in front of him.
The guard said in a panic: “Your royal highness, this subordinate sent people to explore their whereabouts and found traces of them camping in the river valley. They said they found traces of horses going to Paoma Valley, but then they don’t know where did they go.”
Chu Feng sat back in his chair, he was slightly dispirited: “He must have guessed it. I should have thought of it.” With Chu Yan’s experience on the battlefield, how could he not guess that there will be an ambush on the road? A man kept marching and fighting was good in a.n.a.lyzing tactics. So it was understandable that he thought that there would ambush in Paoma Valley. He should have thought of it long ago.
“Continue to explore!”
As soon as the guard went down, another guard came to report: “Your highness, Prince Jin has entered the capital.”
Chu Feng was not too surprised. Since he took a detour and avoided his ambush, it was normal for him to enter the capital. At the moment, it seems that he has to find another opportunity to take action.
“I see, step back. Go and notify our men to withdraw outside.”
After the guard left, Chu Feng immediately went back to his room, changed his clothes, and hurried into the palace.

In Qingan Palace
Empress Chun was taking a nap when maidservant rushed into the inner hall: “Niangniang, his highness, Prince Xiao wants to see you.”
Su Chun opened her eyes, turned to look at the maidservant, and slowly got up. Her black hair fell to her chest, making her face whiter.
“What is he so anxious about?” Chu Feng would never enter the palace unless there was an urgent matter.
“Let him come in.” She got out of bed, and another maidservant helped her wear outer clothes. However, before she could finish, Chu Feng stepped into the inner hall.
“Muhou!” Chu Feng lowered his gaze and bowed his head to Su Chun.
Su Chun said: “No need for ceremony, sit down!”
Now Chu Feng doesn’t have the heart to sit down and gossip, he anxiously said: “Muhou, Chu Yan has entered the capital.”
Her half-squinted like phoenix eyes immediately opened wide, and her eyes immediately covered with coldness: “What did you say?”
Chu Feng took a glance at the maidservants and eunuchs in the palace but did not speak.
Su Chun waved her hand: “You all step back!”
Only the mother and son were left in the huge inner hall.
Su Chun sat down in the chair. Beside her, there was a new steaming tea on her teacup. It was her favorite Dahongpao. But at this time, she had no intention of tasting tea.
“Didn’t you say that you have arranged everything? Didn’t you say that it will be impossible for him to enter the capital? What happened?” Su Chun asked urgently.
Chu Feng’s face was filled with anger: “I made the arrangements, but who knows that he will turn around halfway? My arrangements ended all in vain. He has already entered the capital now, it’s useless to say more. It’s better to think about what should we do next.”
*Niangniang – address to the empress.
*Muhou – mother.
