Chapter 605: There is no bottom line
Sun Zhiyong, the city lord of Dusk Cloud City, is a low-key gossip realm master, he has no family background, and he is completely a person brought up by Emperor Hongcheng.
And Dusk Cloud City is the second barrier on the eastern border of Western Chu, and the object of its defense is not only the Eastern Jin Dynasty and Southern Xinjiang, but also the Zhao family stationed in Chu Cloud City!
Due to his long-term vigilance against the Zhao family, Sun Zhiyong had already subconsciously regarded the Five Princes and the Zhao Mansion as enemies, and believed that Emperor Hongcheng would never pass the throne to Xuanyuan.
Therefore, when Xuanyuan Ying appeared in front of him with Empress Yizhi and told him that the five princes had rebelled and that the emperor had been killed by the ninth princess, he immediately accepted this statement and had almost no doubts.
Even, Sun Zhiyong was still a little excited and excited, feeling that the moment he had been waiting for for many years had finally come! It was time to show the world the value of his existence!!
He originally planned to immediately strengthen the defense according to Emperor Hongcheng's previous instructions to prevent King Zhao from sending troops and horses to Chaoge to help the five princes.
However, Xuanyuan Ying told him another piece of bad news. - The Ninth Princess Xuanyuan Yao colluded with King Jing of Daliang, and the two of them were rushing to Dusk Cloud City with hundreds of demonic beasts above the Bagua Realm, wanting to flank them with Zhao Jiajun.
When Sun Zhiyong heard this, the whole person was not good......
Just facing the Zhao family's army, it was very difficult for them to defend Dusk Cloud City, and it was impossible to block it completely, that is, to delay as much time as possible. If the opponent's lineup has hundreds of more Gossip Realm Demonic Beasts, then his little force will inevitably fall in minutes!!
Just when he was extremely worried, the second princess Xuanyuan Ying gritted her teeth and gave him an idea. ββLet him drag the people of the Ninth Princess here with all his might, and he will go to Chuyun City to assassinate King Zhao's family for him.
Sun Zhiyong was shocked when he heard this proposal...... He didn't expect that someone would dare to assassinate King Zhao, and he didn't expect that this person would be the legendary gentle and cowardly second princess.
He asked the other party at the time, do you know how dangerous this matter is? The other party replied: Yes, but it is related to the rise and fall of Xichu, if he can succeed, what is his life?
Sun Zhiyong was moved by Xuanyuan Ying's bravery and fearlessness, and finally decided to let it go and give it a go!
Before leaving, Xuanyuan Ying also arranged the mechanism and formation in Dusk Cloud City, and left two masters of the Nine Palace Realm to help here.
Sun Chengshou and several deputy generals were stunned from the sidelines, such a high-level mechanism and formation, it was the first time they had seen it after they had lived for decades! It was also the first time they knew that there were still powerhouses in the Nine Palace Realm in Western Chu!!
The second princess tearfully told him that these were all prepared by the emperor in advance in order to prevent the Zhao family's bloodline from seizing the throne, and hoped that everyone would not live up to the emperor's high expectations.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but sigh in unison, that the saint really had foresight! And said that he would definitely fulfill his duties faithfully and be worthy of the emperor's generous treatment over the years.
As for whether what Xuanyuan Ying said was true, the soldiers of Dusk Cloud City had almost no doubts.
The reason is very simple, how deeply Emperor Hongcheng has guarded the Zhao family in Chuyun City over the years, they are all obvious to all, and even participated in it. Therefore, everyone doesn't think there is anything wrong with the words of the second princess at all.
And the situation was urgent, as soon as the second princess left, the ninth princess and Queen Jing rushed here, leaving them no time to question, and the war had already begun.
When Twilight Cloud City had just entered the highest level of preparation, the soldiers defending the city still felt that the second princess was making a big fuss.
Until, they watched a huge beast the size of a house leap up from under the city wall, and the next moment it appeared in front of everyone......
The cold eyes of the giant beast swept over these people, but they did not stop to deal with them, and walked directly towards the city.
The soldiers defending the city didn't even dare to breathe, and some of them were so angry that they were directly scared to pee their pants......
After Fu You walked over in front of them generously with Xiao Jinhan and Xuanyuan Yao, everyone felt that they seemed to have died once just now. It was the feeling that the soul had left the body and was back again.
As for who just passed, they can't take care of it anymore, isn't it good to live well? Why do they want to go to death?
Before Princess Yao arrived, she had already learned about the situation in the city through the Nine Heavens Golden Lotus, and knew that the situation here was very serious.
This time, Xuanyuan Ying didn't stay any longer, and took out her housekeeping skills, just to trap them here for a while.
With Fu You's strength, there was no pressure at all to control the two Nine Palace Realm masters. However, this time the opportunity formations are very strong, and if you touch one casually, you will destroy half of the city.
In this Dusk Cloud City, there are not only soldiers who support the queen and the Seven Princes, but also hundreds of thousands of people...... Therefore, Princess Yao couldn't ignore their safety and choose the simplest and easiest way to deal with it.
In fact, combined in the two worlds, Xuanyuan Yao has never lost to Beimen Ying in any way. But why do you keep being bullied by the other party? It's because the moral bottom line of the two sides is too different!
Even if Princess Yao is not understood, she strictly abides by the moral standards in her heart.
Anyone can do the means, but she can't do the other party's reversal of right and wrong without a lower limit, and she can't sacrifice tens of millions of people for her own selfishness......
But Beimen Ying can! This woman has no bottom line at all!!
