1397.Chapter 1397 - Bloodstained Imperial City Catching Turtles in an Urn
Open the door.
In my calm voice, the door of Yihua Palace slowly opened.
A team of people blocked the gate from the outside, and as soon as the gate opened, the tall man stepped in and said hurriedly, "Where is Miss Yan?"
"I'm here. β
I greeted him and saw that person, although his whole body was tense, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Sun, you are here." β
The person who came was none other than Sun Jingfei, the commander of the Praetorian Guard.
He is the one I am waiting for.
He was holding an unsheathed knife in his hand, but fortunately, there was no blood on it, but when he walked in, the solemn expression on his face and his tight breathing still came in with a sense of nervousness, and everyone looked at him with bated breath, and he said, "I'm here to protect the emperor by order." β
Nangong Lizhu stood in the middle of the courtyard, still a little unable to reply, until Sun Jingfei walked in with a few people, she suddenly turned her head to look at me: "You-"
I looked at her in silence.
"You expected someoneβ"
"I didn't expect it, I just thought that something would happen to Yihua Palace," I said calmly, "But I didn't expect someone to be so bold and directly besiege the imperial city." β
Sun Jingfei also walked in front of us and looked at me silently: "But if it wasn't for Miss's advance arrangement, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to keep it here." β
I shook my head.
In the final analysis, I still can't do enough after all, at least, if I take into account that there will be problems in Yihua Palace, I should further think about what the worst situation will be, but I don't, now that the Xuanwu Gate has been captured, with only the Praetorian Guard, I'm afraid it really may not be able to survive to the end.
But now, instead of feeling guilty and frustrated, I said, "You've come just in time, you can't stay here anymore, we need to leave and go somewhere else." β
"Where?"
"Jixian Palace. β
"Jixian Palace?" he was slightly stunned, and subconsciously wanted to ask something, but looked up at me, was silent for a while, and then turned back and waved at the person he brought: "Escort the emperor to Jixian Palace." β
Nangong Lizhu was still a little panicked, but when he heard me say this, he saw that those people had already walked towards the inner room, gritted his teeth, turned around and ran in.
When we walked in again, she, Mama Wu, and the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard had already carefully helped Pei Yuanhao up, he was unconsciously fiddled with by them, and carried to the soft chair they sent, Nangong Lizhu hurriedly dragged a piece of clothing out of it and covered his body: "Don't let him catch a cold!"
Everyone didn't speak, Sun Jingfei walked outside, glanced left and right, and said, "Go!"
Our group left Yihua Palace.
|
The situation out there is no better than I thought.
As soon as we walked out of Yihua Palace, we met several people who blocked us, but fortunately, the people brought by Sun Jingfei and the people arranged by Pei Yuanhao in Yihua Palace before were all elites, and they had a thrilling time. But the bloody scene obviously scared Nangong Lizhu enough.
I am not calmer than her, but I can't mess around at this time, I walked beside Sun Jingfei, gasped slightly and asked, "Who is it, have you figured it out?"
Sun Jingfei said: "The people guarding the Xuanwu Gate are still fighting them over there, and there is no news for the time being, but I sent someone over to find out the news, no-it's not the army of the imperial court." β
"Isn't it?"
I frowned: "What about the Imperial Battalion soldiers?"
He shook his head: "Without the emperor's edict and the order of the prince of the prison country, no one can move the royal battalion and soldiers." β
"Then, is it a government soldier?"
"Soldiers?"
He also frowned, turned his head to look at me, as if he remembered something, and looked at Nangong Lizhu next to him.
Nangong Jinhong is the secretary of the military department, if he privately sets up a military government and cultivates his own soldiers, it is also completely possible.
Nangong Lizhu looked at him nervously.
Sun Jingfei thought for a while and said, "It doesn't look like a soldier of a military government. β
Nangong Lizhu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Butβ"
Before he finished his words, suddenly, from the diagonal opposite road, suddenly another group of people came out, compared to the seven or eight, a dozen or so people just now, this time there were much more than the previous ones, at least thirty people, we barely reacted, they had already surrounded us!
I was stunned.
As soon as Sun Jingfei came over with his hand, he grabbed me behind him, and the knife in his other hand flashed with cold light, and he pointed at those people: "Get out of the way." β
And those who surrounded us, after a closer look, found that they were really not soldiers and horses of the imperial court, nor were they soldiers of the imperial camp, but the clothes of these people were uniform, and even the weapons were uniform, in my opinion, they looked like government soldiers who came out of the military palace. Moreover, they had obviously been killing all the way from the Xuanwu Gate to this place, and the knives in each of their hands were dripping with blood, and their bodies were also full of blood.
As soon as they saw the man lying on the soft chair in a bright yellow robe, their eyes immediately turned red.
"That'sβ"
My heart tightened.
Nangong Lizhu was stunned when she saw this scene next to her, she couldn't even speak, and those people stopped talking this time, just looked at each other with their eyes, and surrounded us step by step.
Seeing that those swords were already close in front of us, the smell of blood rushed straight into our noses, Sun Jingfei was completely in front of us, holding the hilt of the knife in his hand, but he didn't give an order, there were only more than twenty people on our side, and five or six of them were ordered by him to stay by Pei Yuanhao's side, if you really want to make a move, I'm just afraid-
However, it is not up to us to choose.
The first leader of those people had approached in front of Sun Jingfei, he suddenly roared, raised his long knife and slashed at Sun Jingfei, Sun Jingfei hurriedly raised the knife in his hand to block, and when he heard the sound, sparks flew in the air, and he blocked the man's knife above his head.
However, that person's strength was amazing, and he slashed down with a knife, pressing Sun Jingfei's entire person down, and when the two of them were facing each other, the others had already copied up from a few breads.
Sun Jingfei's eyes were as red as blood, and he immediately swung his knife to block the man, and then faced the attack on the left and right, he was not afraid, the long knife flew in his hand, only the silver light flickered, and with a few sounds, he cut down one of them head-on.
Blood spurted onto his body at once.
I was standing behind him, and a few drops of hot stuff were blown by the wind and drifted to my face.
Just as he was scuffling with the other two, a man beside me suddenly rushed towards us.
I was terrified, and before I could react, I saw the knife in the man's hand aimed at me behind me and stabbed straight at me.
Behind him is Pei Yuanhao lying on the soft chair!
"Don't!"
There was a sudden exclamation in my ears, and I didn't have time to take a closer look, so I reached out and pushed at the man.
The man had raised his knife and stabbed straight ahead, but suddenly I pushed him, and the whole person staggered and fell, but the knife in his hand had already stabbed him, and immediately, he heard a scream.
"Ahh
When I looked back, it was actually Nangong Lizhu who fell on Pei Yuanhao's body.
And that knife, impartially, was cut right in her hand.
Blood spurted out at once, spilling on the bright yellow robe, which was so dazzling that a few drops of blood even fell on Pei Yuanhao's face.
When the man saw the mistake, his face immediately distorted, and he stared at me viciously: "Go and die!"
With that, the blood-stained knife in my hand was raised high and slashed down on top of my head.
I was so shocked that my heart stopped.
And at this moment, suddenly, a cold light flew from behind me and suddenly pierced the man's chest.
My eyes widened as I watched the cold light flicker, and slowly an entity appeared in my eyes, a Praetorian Guard's knife!
That'sβ
I hurriedly looked back, only to see that not far ahead, a team of centaurs suddenly appeared in a diagonal path!
Sun Jingfei and his subordinates didn't see the scene just now, but at this moment, they were already like frightened birds, I was afraid that if there was another team, we would really be splashed with blood on the spot today, but as soon as those people rushed out, they surrounded the people who originally surrounded us again, and when they looked at it, they were all Praetorian Guards!
"Commander!"
When Sun Jingfei saw them, he was immediately ecstatic, and he didn't say anything but waved his hand: "Give it to me!" and rushed forward with a big knife.
This time, the winner was quickly decided.
They showed no mercy and killed all these people, and the blood splashed on my body became more and more, leaning back against the soft chair, looking at those swords and swords, I only felt that the whole person was a little dazed.
It wasn't until the last person was slashed by the force that Sun Jingfei wiped his face and said to the group: "You are-"
Before he finished speaking, he saw several people coming out of the passage, and they were all women.
And the leader is Concubine Ning Yang Jinqiao!
When Sun Jingfei saw her, he was stunned, and subconsciously said, "Why didn't you leave? I asked them to escort you out!"
Yang Jinqiao frowned, glanced at the corpses and blood all over the ground, couldn't hide his disgust, and then said, "I can't go." β
"What?"
"The noon gate has long been sealed. β
"Huh?!"
Sun Jingfei was shocked, and Yang Jinqiao was still calm, maybe she had already experienced such a scene once, and she was also a person who died once, but she was more calm than those men. She stepped on those flesh and blood and walked over, looked at me, and then looked at Pei Yuanhao and Nangong Lizhu behind me: "We are now the turtle in the urn." β
I took a deep breath and slowly straightened up as I lifted the body at my feet.
"It also depends on whether the person who catches the turtle has the ability. β
