the capital city and it's easy to contact him. Letters aren't very frequent, but my mother visited a few days ago. She said that my father deeply appreciates your trust and spends his days pondering...Chapter 240: Confrontation

"You are merely serving out your duty, but this old man embraces the will to die and fight to the death. This old man advises you not to misjudge yourself!"

His peer looked down at his collar being grabbed, he didn't know how to respond when San Bao arrived.

Rushing like the wind, Sānbǎo almost flew to the scene.

Following closely behind were a large contingent of Dongchang's Jinyiwei.

"Your humble servant,

has met the Master!"

In a flurry of greetings, Sanbao walked up to Duan Jinjiang with a grim expression.

Duang Jinjiang knew the real person had arrived, so he let go of that commander.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Sanzang suddenly smiled.

He pointed to the wound on his forehead and said, "Master Duan, see this"

"Bring my son out here!" Duan Jinjiang said coldly.

"San Bao seemed not to hear, and answered himself: 'Just now, Your Highness used a book, smashed it.'"

"Bring my son out here!!" Duan Jiangjiang raised his voice, already at his wit's end.

As soon as he spoke, over ten guards behind him immediately drew their weapons.

Seeing this, the Dongchang Jinyiwei immediately surrounded them, each placing their hand on the hilt of their swords.

The atmosphere was tense, with everyone on edge and ready to strike at any moment.

Raising his hand, Sanbao ordered all the Dongchang Jinyiwei to withdraw.

"Your Highness wants to see you."

Du Jiang coldly said, "This old man wants to see his son!"

"Only by seeing the prince can one see the son."

"Sān Bǎo stood his ground, his voice cold as he replied: "I, Sān Bǎo, have been in the palace for thirty-six years, but I have also lived thirty-six years as a eunuch. It took me twenty-nine years to reach my current position. In this world, I have seen and done the most despicable things, and I have seen and done the most insidious things. I have held power and tasted humiliation. Now, it's not a big deal to lose my life as a castrated man. But Duan Ge Lao, do you have the courage"

This sentence finally moved Duan Jintang.

Sambao smiled and said loudly, "Prepare the carriage and have Elder Duan get in the car!"

"No need, old man will ride a horse himself!"

Du Jiang coldly glanced at Sanbao and said, "If this old man's only bloodline is truly dead, then Sanbao, this old man will absolutely be your enemy to the end!"

Sān Bǎo stood calmly, as if he hadn't heard a thing.

Duan Jinjiang let out a cold snort and turned his horse's head.

"Your Highness is currently at the General's Mansion, please follow me with Elder Duan."

Half an hour later, Duan Jinjiang appeared in the wing room prepared by General Su Zhen for Li Chen at the Grand General's Mansion.

When Duan Jincheng arrived, Li Chen was reading military strategy.

Du Ji Jiang held his breath and raised his hand to say, “Your humble servant Du Ji Jiang greets His Royal Highness the Prince.”

Li Chen didn't raise his head, still engrossed in the military treatise. He smiled and said, "Master Duan, what do you think of this stratagem 'Devour Wolves and Tigers'"

This nonsensical talk made Duan Jiang's brow furrow.

He really had no desire to play riddles with Li Chen, so he went straight to the point: "Wolf or tiger, it matters little. This concerns the only son of this old minister. Even if I am used, there is nothing else I can do."

"Yes."

Li Chen nodded and surprisingly agreed with Duan Jinjiang's words.

He put down the military treatise and looked up at Duan Jinchang, saying: “So this is the brilliance of a strategist. Master Duan, do you find these tactics familiar So familiar that they seem to come from someone close by, the hand of a colleague who has worked alongside you for decades”

Du Jianjiang tightened his lips and remained silent.

"Duan Changmian, he's dead."

Li Chen's nonchalant words sent a shiver down Duan Jinjiang's spine.rateful."Prince Ning stretched languidly and said, "Forget it, Your Highness's late-night visit must have a purpose. Just say what it is directly. If it concerns the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun, then my...
