Prince Chong’er blamed Hu Yan for designing the plan and tricking him into leaving Qi. He grabbed Wei Chou’s long halberd and thrust it at Hu Yan. Hu Yan quickly jumped down from the carriage to avoid the strike. Chong’er also jumped down, raised the halberd, and chased after him. Zhao Cui, Jiu Ji, Hu Shegu, and Jie Zitui all got down as well and tried to persuade him.
