The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 738: Leaving the City at Midnight

Du Wei was so furious that he violently threw his official hat to the ground and shouted, "Damn it, I can’t take it anymore! I won’t be this lousy official anymore!"

He undid his official robe as he walked.

The court fell silent for a moment. Some officials visibly struggled internally, while others just looked at Du Wei coldly.

Du Wei tore off the purple official robe and threw it on the ground, walking out in his white inner garments.

Du Wei walked down the street just like that, in his inner garments.

He didn’t ride in a sedan chair; the servants from his house followed fearfully behind, carrying the chair.

Du Wei walked all the way to the Duke Mansion, met Jiang Zhongxing, and cried while embracing him, "Zhong Xing, Great Chu is doomed."

Jiang Zhongxing embraced him and cried as well.

The weeping from the two grown men was particularly unsettling.

That night, Jiang Zhongxing stayed in the study and did not return to the bedroom. At midnight, he put on his night clothes, snuck near the city wall, and found the Deputy Commander.

The two of them secretly discussed for a while. Jiang Zhongxing then sat in a basket at a corner of the city wall, where no torches were shining, and went down.

After getting outside the city, he still had to cross the moat.

Jiang Zhongxing took off all his clothes, placed them in an oil paper bag, and silently swam across the moat with it on his head.

During the day, he told Lady Wu that killing the former emperor was useless, though it was true, he also said it to prevent Lady Wu from taking risks.

Regardless, if the former emperor were killed, Great Chu would have fewer constraints after all.

He was reluctant to kill the emperor, especially since it was his uncle, but for Great Chu, he had no choice.

After getting ashore, Jiang Zhongxing put on his night clothes and headed towards the Jin Country’s camp.

In the camp, torches were lit at intervals, and soldiers were patrolling back and forth.

Jiang Zhongxing patiently ambushed in the dark for a while until he waited for a soldier who got up to relieve himself. He sneaked over, covered his mouth, and dragged him into the dark, "Where is the former emperor of Great Chu?"

The soldier shook his head with muffled sounds, gesturing for Jiang Zhongxing to let go.

Jiang Zhongxing, worried that he would shout, placed the dagger on his neck, "Do not shout, or I’ll kill you."

The soldier cursed his weak bladder for needing to urinate at midnight.

Jiang Zhongxing whispered, "I will let go, and you tell me the place, I promise not to kill you."

The soldier nodded vigorously. Jiang Zhongxing slowly released his grip, but in the next instant, the soldier suddenly yelled, "Assassin!"

Jiang Zhongxing moved his hand, and the dagger sliced across the soldier’s throat.

At this moment, the camp whistles blew, and the sound of chaotic footsteps approached. Jiang Zhongxing quickly abandoned the soldier’s body and dashed off with Qinggong.

After running a distance and shaking off the pursuers, he changed direction again, sneaking back towards the camp.

He couldn’t just leave empty-handed.

Either kill the former emperor or kill Wanyan Zhang.

By this time, most soldiers in the camp had gotten up after hearing the whistle.

The camp was filled with people everywhere; Jiang Zhongxing hid behind a tent, constantly at risk of being discovered. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

He soon noticed a tent with four soldiers standing guard outside, unmoving and seemingly unaffected by the chaos in the camp.

Jiang Zhongxing gritted his teeth and quickly rushed toward that direction.

His figure was soon spotted, and soldiers ran from all directions towards him,

Jiang Zhongxing hadn’t yet reached the tent before he realized he was about to be surrounded.

He knew his actions tonight were reckless, and at this moment, he clearly understood that wanting to kill the former emperor in the camp was a dream.

If sacrificing his life could achieve it, he wouldn’t hesitate, but he’s not a fool and doesn’t want to die in vain.
