After Xu Sheng returned, he found that his biological son Xu Ling was already the governor of the capital and held the military power, so Xu Sheng wanted to rely on his martial arts to put his son on the throne!

It is said that Xu Sheng wanted to infiltrate the palace and assassinate Zhang Xiuxiu. However, Xu Ling disagreed, because Zhang Xiuxiu was recognized as the first beauty in the Shuangcheng Continent, and Xu Ling was reluctant to let Zhang Xiuxiu die. People, to a certain extent, will be greedy, as the so-called: "greed is not enough to swallow an elephant", Xu Ling accidentally had a biological father with a ninth-level spiritual root, so he was greedy, not only wanting to occupy Zhang Xiuxiu's country, but also wanting to occupy Zhang Xiuxiu's body!

In fact, Xu Ling is already a person with a wife, and Xu Ling's wife is still a famous family in the Shuangcheng Continent. In normal times, the relationship between the couple is not bad. However, when she heard that Xu Ling wanted Zhang Xiuxiu to be his wife, Xu's wife was immediately annoyed, thinking that Xu Ling was ungrateful, so she quarreled with Xu Ling. Xu Ling has his biological father Xu Sheng as a backer, and his temper has grown, not only his desire has grown. So, Xu Ling beat his wife. Xu's wife was carried away by anger, and even sent a henchman to the palace to report to Zhang Xiuxiu, saying that Xu Ling was going to lead an army to attack the palace. Originally, Zhang Xiuxiu still had illusions about Xu Ling, thinking that as long as Xu Ling was promoted to the official, Xu Ling would not be opposed. Unexpectedly, Xu Ling not only wanted to rebel, but also wanted Her Majesty the Empress to be his wife! Zhang Xiuxiu was angry and immediately strengthened the protection of the palace.

Originally, Xu Ling led his subordinates, if he suddenly attacked the palace, he would definitely be able to catch Zhang Xiuxiu off guard. However, due to Xu's wife's report, Zhang Xiuxiu was prepared, which made Xu Ling's surprise attack ineffective.

Xu Ling wanted Zhang Xiuxiu to be his wife, which simply blew Zhang Xiuxiu up! Because this is a serious insult to Zhang Xiuxiu!

Xu Ling led his troops to surround the palace. Although the Imperial Forest Army guarding the palace is not less than Xu Ling's men and horses in terms of numbers, and, in terms of quality, it is also more elite than Xu Ling's men and horses. However, Zhang Xiuxiu did not dare to rush into battle.

Xu Ling, riding a high-headed horse, stood under the palace gate, and shouted to Zhang Xiuxiu, at this time, Xu Ling naturally would not call Zhang Xiuxiu as "the empress's mausoleum", and called Zhang Xiuxiu by his name, called him "Xiuxiu", Xu Ling said like this: "Xiuxiu, if you are obsessed, you will be burned with jade! As long as you open the door and surrender and give me the throne, you will be my queen! Our two descendants, from generation to generation, will always be the emperor of the Shuangcheng Empire! As for my father, he is naturally the emperor of the Shuangcheng Empire!" Zhang Xiuxiu was so angry that her whole body trembled, and she couldn't wait to rush down and break Xu Ling's body into pieces!

Xu Ling called out to the soldiers in the palace again: "The soldiers in the palace have listened to me: if you open the door and surrender, the official will be promoted to the third level! If Zhang Xiuxiu is captured and sent to me, the official seal will be five side by side, and it can be hereditary! If you insist on Zhang Xiuxiu, once I break the palace, I will punish your nine clans!" I have to say that Xu Ling's words are both graceful and powerful, and to a certain extent, they have shaken the military heart of the Royal Forest Army.

Luo Ning, the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, used to be a teacher at Wendao Academy, and at that time, he was a colleague with Zhang Xiuxiu, who used to be the head teacher of the junior class. In this way, when Zhang Xiuxiu became His Majesty, the city lord of the former Nancheng Kingdom, Luo Ning also became Zhang Xiuxiu's descendant. When Zhang Xiuxiu entered the North City and became Her Majesty the Empress of the Twin Cities Empire, Luo Ning also rose to the top and became the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Kingdom, it can be said that Luo Ning is one of Zhang Xiuxiu's hardcore henchmen. Moreover, when asking the Academy, because Zhang Xiuxiu was the goddess of all the male students and all the male teachers of the Academy, Luo Ning was still one of Zhang Xiuxiu's fans, and she was still an "iron fan".

Hearing that Xu Ling was under the palace gate, talking nonsense, Luo Ning had already held his breath! So, Luo Ning secretly took a bow and arrows, and suddenly shot at Xu Ling! But seeing that "the bow is as open as a full moon, and the arrows are like meteors", he went straight to the door of Xu Ling!

It can be said that once Xu Ling is shot in the face, even if he does not die, he will be seriously injured. Luo Ning's arrow, carrying a sharp wind, was amazing! Xu Ling was caught off guard, and was suddenly in a hurry.

At this moment, a figure, as fast as a meteor, suddenly came, and he could have shot down Luo Ning's arrow, but instead of doing so, the man grabbed the arrow with his hand!

In an instant, everyone on the scene was taken aback! You must know that Luo Ning, as the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army, was a master with an eighth-level spiritual root! The arrow that Luo Ning shot would not dare to catch even if he was a master of the same eighth-level spiritual root! From this, it can be seen that the person who caught Luo Ning's arrow must be a master of a ninth-level spiritual root!

The person who caught Luo Ning's arrow was a short old man, but under one stop, it was like an abyss stopping at Yuezhi, making people completely forget his short stature! That short old man was Xu Ling's actual father, Xu Sheng!

After Xu Sheng caught Luo Ning's arrow, he turned the arrow and slammed it back towards Luo Ning! This throw was even stronger than when Luo Ning shot it! The speed was even faster than when Luo Ning shot it!361 Reading

Fortunately, Luo Ning had already been vigilant, and when the arrow came with sharp strength, Luo Shen used the mace in his hand to meet the arrow. With a bang, the arrow hit Luo Ning's mace, which shocked Luo Ning's mouth numbly, and the mace was almost unable to hold it. And after the arrow hit the mace, it burst to the side, and with all its strength, it hit a palace guard, and the palace guard with a third-level spiritual root was immediately shot to death! The power of an arrow is terrifying! Xu Sheng looked at Luo Ning coldly and said, "That kid, do you dare to fight with me?" This is Xu Sheng's blatant challenge to Luo Ning!

Luo Ning just took the arrow thrown by Xu Sheng, his arm was still sore, and he didn't have the strength to fight at all. Moreover, Luo Ning had already understood: Xu Sheng was obviously a master with a ninth-level spiritual root, even if his arm was not sore, with his eighth-level spiritual root skills, he was not Xu Sheng's opponent at all!

Xu Sheng faced Zhang Xiuxiu and the others above the palace gate, and said: "Who dares to fight with me? If anyone defeats me, my son Xu Ling will immediately withdraw from the army!" Xu Sheng's words were not very loud, but they spread for more than ten miles, and all the soldiers defending the palace, even if they were not at the scene, could hear them clearly. Obviously, Xu Sheng openly asked for battle, obviously with the intention of winning, and Xu Sheng was obviously Xu Ling's biggest support, as long as Xu Sheng was defeated, Xu Ling's morale would plummet. On the contrary, if Xu Sheng wins, Xu Ling's army will definitely increase in confidence, and next, even if Zhang Xiuxiu does not surrender, Xu Ling will order to storm the palace!

Xu Sheng's voice sounded again: "The people of the palace, who dares to fight with me? Could it be that the people of the palace are all turtles with shrunken heads?

After listening to Xu Sheng's suo battle, he couldn't hold his breath anymore, he was Quhe, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army!

Qu He can barely be regarded as Zhang Xiuxiu's henchman, although he is not a teacher at the Ask Academy, because he is the general of the former Nancheng Kingdom. When Yan Yan pushed Zhang Xiuxiu to His Majesty, the city lord of the former Nancheng Kingdom, Qu He, who was the commander of ten thousand people, declared himself a vassal to Zhang Xiuxiu. After Zhang Xiuxiu became Her Majesty the Empress of the newly formed Twin Cities Empire, Qu He also became the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. In a certain sense, Quhe has become Zhang Xiuxiu's "protector".

As the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, as a master with a ninth-level spiritual root, Qu He is very face-heavy. In fact, a person who has reached the status of Quhe can't do it without paying attention to face! Because as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, to a certain extent, Quhe's face also represents the face of the Twin Cities Empire!

When Xu Sheng threw that arrow, as the saying goes, "if an expert stretches out his hand, he will know if there is one", Qu He's heart was bright: although he is also a master with a ninth-level spiritual root, but Xu Sheng can do it, Qu He can't do it!

This is like two people playing Go, although both of them are nine-dan players, but the chess strength may be very different, if the seven-dan chess is played to win, one of the nine-dan players may not be able to win a game! This is just like Li Changgao on the earth, although he is a nine-dan player, but in his peak, his chess strength, and some nine-dan chess players, is not at the same level at all!

Qu He was self-aware, and knew that if he fought a decisive battle with Xu Sheng, the one who lost must be him! However, he knew that others didn't know, and others thought that they were all masters of the ninth-level spiritual root, and their skills were about the same. In particular, he Qu He is not only a master with a ninth-level spiritual root, but also the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, if he becomes the "shrinking turtle" that Xu Sheng called under Xu Sheng's blatant challenge, Qu He can be regarded as a thick-skinned turtle, and he has to be faced! Moreover, Qu He represents the morale of the entire Imperial Forest Army to a certain extent! Therefore, Qu He decided: Ask Zhang Xiuxiu for battle!

In one of the famous works on the earth, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is such a famous plot: Zhuge Liang and Sima Zhongda, each led the Shu army and the Wei army, held each other in the Wei River, Sima Zhongda's understanding is: The Shu army came from afar, and it was difficult to transport grain and grass, which was conducive to a quick war, but not a long war. Therefore, Sima Zhongda could not hold out, waiting for the Shu army's food to run out. If the Shu army ran out of food, it would naturally retreat, and the Wei army would take the opportunity to chase after it, and Zhuge Liang would be able to capture it! This was Sima Zhongda's wishful thinking. The Shu army is not conducive to a long war, Sima Zhongda saw it, Zhuge Liang also saw it, therefore, Zhuge Liang kept sending people to scold the war, Sima Zhongda, simply hung up the war-free card. Zhuge Liang had nothing to do, and then he came up with a trick: he sent a messenger to see Sima Zhongda, but gave Sima Zhongda a set of women's clothes, which means that Sima Zhongda is as timid as a mouse, like a woman. Suddenly, the Wei generals were furious and asked Sima Zhongda to open the camp gate to meet the Shu army. Sima Zhongda was also furious, and said impassionedly: "Zhuge Liang insults me like this, is it tolerable, is it unbearable? After I ask Your Majesty, fight Zhuge Liang to the death!" So, Sima Zhongda sent an envoy to Luoyang, the capital of Wei, to ask Emperor Wei Ming for battle. Emperor Wei Ming knew Sima Zhongda's intentions, so he sent the ministers of the Qin mission to the Wei camp and told the generals: "It is only advisable to hold on, and those who dare to fight will be killed even if they win!" Zhuge Liang heard the news and sighed to the sky. Someone asked Zhuge Liang: "Why did the prime minister sigh?" Zhuge Liang said: "Sima Zhongda had no desire to fight, but he just used the mouth of Emperor Wei to suppress everyone!

At this moment, Qu He is ready to ask Zhang Xiuxiu for battle, which is strikingly similar to the bridge section in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". The aggressive and aggressive Xu Sheng is equivalent to Zhuge Liang in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and Quhe, who has to fight now, is equivalent to Sima Zhongda, who pretends to be and asks for war for thousands of miles in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and Zhang Xiuxiu is equivalent to Emperor Wei Ming in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

So, Qu He hugged his fist to Zhang Xiuxiu and said loudly: "Your Majesty the Empress, the last general is not talented, I am willing to fight to the death with Xu Sheng below! Even if he is dead, he will have no regrets even if he dies, so as to repay His Majesty!" Because Qu He's voice was very loud, the sound shook the entire palace. Suddenly, the entire Imperial Forest Army was thunderous with joy and morale. On the other hand, the soldiers of Xu Ling below immediately weakened. Because as a party to the rebellion, they were already at a loss, and their momentum was shorter. Moreover, in their hearts, as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Quhe's martial arts should be above Xu Sheng, because Xu Sheng is just an ordinary person!

Although Zhang Xiuxiu is Her Majesty the Empress, she currently only has a sixth-level spiritual root, and her eyesight in martial arts is not high at all. She couldn't see that Xu Sheng's martial arts were actually above Quhe! On the contrary, Zhang Xiuxiu thought that Quhe's martial arts were at least not below Xu Sheng, and Xu Sheng's beard and hair were all white, and it seemed that he was not as strong as Quhe's body. What's more: Zhang Xiuxiu now needs a victory too much! If Quhe defeats Xu Sheng, then the rebellious army will definitely lose all its fighting spirit and will not be able to form an army, and at that time, as long as she gives an order, the entire Imperial Forest Army will kill out of the palace and put down the rebellion is just around the corner!

Since Zhang Xiuxiu's martial arts foundation is not weak, and she is eager to win, she has little experience, and she does not know how to understand human feelings, how can she know Quhe's true mentality? If she has the opportunity, Qu He will definitely tell Zhang Xiuxiu about her true mentality! However, the problem is that at present, the army is pressing, Xu Sheng is aggressive, and Quhe has no chance to talk to Zhang Xiuxiu alone! You must know that in front of everyone's eyes, if Qu He says to Zhang Xiuxiu: "Your Majesty the Empress, the ministers have important matters and must report them separately." In that case, even if Zhang Xiuxiu listened to Quhe, people would think that Quhe was cowardly!
