Outside the Golden Gate

Although Gu Yuwei has always been at a disadvantage in this battle, they have always believed in their hearts that they can finally get out of the current predicament, because their ancestors have always taught them by word and deed, they are invincible soldiers, no matter how big the danger is, they can overcome it, because their leader, their faith, can lead them to overcome everything.

Now, their leader has left them first, can they still become the invincible army in the mouth of their ancestors?

Compared to Gu Yuwei's vacillation, the Snow Leopard Army also fell into silence at this time, the new order was not conveyed, they just quietly looked at the group of brave enemies in front of them, they didn't know what was happening on the other side, but they were also tired and tired from fighting. If they hadn't maintained an absolute superiority in numbers, I'm afraid that the Snow Leopard Army at this time would have collapsed like the city defense army outside the Imperial City.

On the car behind the Snow Leopard Army, Prime Minister Li Sheng paced to the outside of the carriage, through the heavy rain, looking at the raging fire not far away, his eyes flashed with a ghostly light, and he sighed:

"I didn't expect that the dignified Gu Guogong would end up like this, the old man is still looking forward to fighting with you, and see if you have inherited the dead Gu Yuan's skills, but now it seems that Er'er. ”

Pang Li, who was on the side, listened to Li Sheng's emotion, and immediately hugged his fists:

"How can the power of Xiangye be comparable to that Gu Bin, now that Gu Bin is dead, the remaining Gu Yuwei is not to be afraid, and please give an order to Xiangye, what to do next. ”

"Is there any news of Liu Ning?" Li Sheng asked.

"Back to Xiangye, the soldier in front of Gu said that in the Gu Yuwei who broke through, the traitor Liu Ning was not found. Pang Li reported truthfully.

"Is there still an ancient feather guard left in the pass?"

"The spies who have just entered the pass have reported that apart from the remaining soldiers of the Longshan Battalion, Gu Yuwei has not been found in the pass. And according to the observation of the last general, Gu Yuwei should also be the whole army to break through, and the direction of their breakthrough is not the imperial city, more like an escape. ”

After thinking for a moment, Li Sheng slowly spoke:

"Strange, where did this Liu Ning go? According to Phantom Chenzi, he found no trace of Liu Ning in the pass, and if he wanted to get out of the pass, it was absolutely impossible to quietly break through the surveillance of our army, could it be that there was anything else in the Golden Gate Pass that I didn't know?"

Pang Li thought for a while and said:

"Xiangye, do you think it was Gu Bin who hid Liu Ning and pretended to break through to attract the attention of our army, but in fact he wanted to take advantage of our army's unpreparedness and sneak away?"

Shaking his head, Li Sheng said: "This is impossible, just the land of the Golden Gate, how to hide, Gu Bin will not be unexpected, now it seems... ”

A bolt of lightning pierced the sky, not only interrupting Li Sheng's words, but also illuminating the entire sky.

Li Sheng looked up suddenly, and the majestic Qingbo Peak, like a sharp sword, stood quietly between heaven and earth.

"Qingbo Peak, Qinglian Temple!!"

......

Liu Cheng stepped down from the main seat, helped Liu Ning to sit on the ground, and said:

"Brother Huang, I'm afraid that everyone in Jinmen Pass is searching for your whereabouts at this moment, why don't you go down with your brother and see everyone?"

At this moment, Liu Ning was still caught in the news of Gu Bin's death, and when he heard Liu Cheng's words, he did not answer.

Glancing at Liu Ning, who was restless, Liu Cheng continued:

"The matter has come to this, the imperial brother does not have to be too sad, once he will succeed, this is the choice of the ancient prince, in this case, we should respect him and complete his unfinished business, what do you think?"

Regarding the indifference in Liu Cheng's words, Liu Ning walked out of his sad mood. Through the conversation just now, Liu Cheng's thoughts have been undoubtedly revealed, Li Sheng wants to get rid of, including those forces that only Li Sheng is the first to follow, will be purged, but what about his own side? Those ministers who are loyal to him will become stumbling blocks on the road of Emperor Liu Cheng, will Liu Cheng not attack them because of himself? Taking a deep breath and suppressing the emotions in his heart, Liu Ning said:

"If you need me to do something, please ask the emperor to make it clear. ”

Liu Cheng smiled, didn't care about the change in Liu Ning's tone, and said:

"Actually, what you need to do is very simple, I have ordered all the ministers in the imperial city to come to Kinmen Pass, and when the time comes, I hope that those upright ministers can bravely stand up against Li Sheng, and hope that they can make suggestions for the future of the Dacheng Empire and build a beautiful and prosperous era with me. ”

Fortunately, Liu Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, these people were all loyal and patriotic, and it was only because of the oppression of Li Sheng's party that they united and were used by Liu Ning. And it's not just for the sake of forming a party for personal gain. If these people are purged together, then the great achievements will be completely in turmoil, and that is not the result that Liu Cheng wants to see.

"Obey the holy commandment, and the ministers will surely persuade the ministers to repay the emperor's kindness. Liu Ning clenched his fists with both hands.

"Okay, then the royal brother will work with his brother to put an end to tonight's rebellion once and for all. ”

Liu Cheng took Liu Ning's wrist and walked out of the Stargazing Pavilion together.

"Your Majesty, the minister still has nothing to do, and I hope that the emperor will solve the minister's doubts. ”

"Brother Huang, but it doesn't hurt to say. ”

"Now Li Sheng is powerful, leading the snow leopard army to besiege Kinmen Pass, Rao is the invincible army Gu Yuwei, and now he is just fighting the trapped beasts, since the emperor is going to end this matter with his ministers, how should the 30,000 snow leopard army deal with it?"

Liu Cheng did not rush to answer Liu Ning's question, but paced to the edge of the aisle, put his hands behind his back, raised his head and closed his eyes, let the little rain fall on his face, and said slowly:

"Someone told me that the power of the world is not the power of the emperor, since someone wants to borrow my power, then you have to ask me if I agree or not, what I give, that is called power, what I don't give, but I take, then it is called sin. ”

After speaking, Liu Cheng looked at Liu Ning, his eyes flashed, these words were for himself and for others, since he decided to take this road, he should abandon all distractions, no matter what others think, just do what he wants to do with peace of mind.

At this time, the woman in green shirt who had just left, Luo Ying and others also appeared beside the aisle, and Yuan Ming, the former commander of the Longshan battalion, was also impressively listed.

It turned out that Yuan Ming was also a member of the Queen Mother's family, in the Golden Gate Pass, Yuan Ming received a secret order to take Liu Ning to the bottom of Qingbo Peak, and it happened that at this time Meng Hao found Yuan Ming to discuss how to settle Liu Ning, Yuan Ming borrowed the donkey from the slope, proposed a plan to drop the bag, and successfully took Liu Ning away, without attracting anyone's attention.

What everyone doesn't know is that inside the steep and straight Qingbo Peak, there is a secret passage leading directly to the top of the mountain, which is only known to the founding emperor Liu Xian and the current Empress Dowager An Ruolan, and the establishment of Kinmen Pass is actually related to this secret passage.
