Gao Lanjie exclaimed and got into the queen's arms. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two of them were terrified, and the pear blossoms hugged each other with rain.
Her exclamation made many people in the Heart Cultivation Hall even more frightened, the apparent peace was pretended, but now it was completely crushed by this exclamation, and several concubines and princesses cried on the spot.
Emperor Gao sighed in a deep tone, and glanced at Gao Lanjie with his eyes. He didn't like to hear such cries, and he couldn't help it.
At this time, King Rong stood up, he pulled out a long sword on the side wall of the Heart Cultivation Palace, raised it in his hand, and said with righteous indignation: "Fear is the puppet of failure, we don't have to be afraid, even if the enemy rushes in, we can't lose our ambition!" ”
But when he said this, there was no response at all.
My life is gone, what do I still have ambition to do.
Hearing this, Emperor Gao looked at King Rong with strange eyes, with some disbelief in his eyes, and some faint relief.
The prince has always been the image of a weak scholar.
The enthusiasm of political affairs did not work at all at this juncture, and he also looked at King Rong, and finally turned his face away and turned around.
The killing outside the door was getting closer and closer, and the sound of flying arrows seemed to be happening in the Heart Cultivation Palace, as well as the sound of swords and guns, and even the sound of flesh and blood could be heard clearly.
Qi Qing'er's face was also calm.
She didn't know how long the killings would last, and it didn't seem to be her expectation.
At this time, a sharp arrow with fire pierced the thin veil on the hollow carved wooden door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, flew into the lobby of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and nailed it to the pillar.
The scissors were wrapped in a paraffin cloth.
The paraffin wax melts at high temperatures and drips down the column.
Sticking to Mars.
The temple of nourishing the heart suddenly exclaimed, and the flames jumped, and the pillar was about to be ignited.
Emperor Gao sat behind the dragon case and was silent, only staring at the pillar with sparkling eyes, and a layer of ice could be scraped off both sides of his cheeks.
It was still King Rong who reacted in time, he rushed to the side of the pillar regardless of it, took off his coat and raised it in his hand and began to put out the fire.
The fire took several fights before it was extinguished.
The sobbing sound in the Heart Nourishing Temple recurred, and the heart trembled even more miserably.
With the sound of the door creaking open again, a sturdy body stumbled into the Heart Cultivation Hall.
Yan Song was covered in blood, there were obvious cut scars on his arms, bloodstains, full of fishy smell, and he came in with the breath of a sea of swords and fire, and the breath of near death.
He walked directly to the center of the Heart Cultivation Hall and said, "The Imperial Forest Army is seriously injured, I'm afraid I can't hold it anymore!" ”
Emperor Gao was furious and shouted: "If you can't hold it, you have to hold it!" ”
Yan Song was speechless, he nodded, and dragged his long legs, which were already bloodstained, to walk out.
King Rong shouted and said, "Lord Yan, I'm with you!" ”
These words made Emperor Gao's eyes on King Rong even more different. He didn't refuse, and King Rong didn't give him a chance to refuse, but looked at the back of King Rong leaving with some appreciation.
And the prince beside him was retreating.
All this the queen looked at in the eyes.
She looked at the prince with teary eyes, her heart full of despair.
This battle, lost, everyone lost. If he wins, the prince's position will inevitably be gone.
However, her ears were filled with blood and rain at the moment, so she had no way to force the prince to go out with King Rong and use her body to resist the ruthless swords and guns.
The queen finally shook her head, shed a huge tear, and hugged Princess Lancheng in her arms.
Qi Qing'er watched Yan Song leave.
The wounds on his body made her extremely sad.
Such a good man, to put it a little worse, was ruined in her hands.
……
Outside the palace walls.
The sky was getting darker.
The shaky sky was blood-red.
Just like within the walls of this palace, there is a fire.
King Qi stood in front of the huge number of people and horses, his expression was as thin as winter ice.
It was in stark contrast to the heat that was billowing from the ground behind him.
The soldiers on the side raised a hand, galloped on the horse, and came out of the palace gate until King Qi received the galloping horse in front of him.
He jumped off the horse, affirmed King Qi's jaw, and whispered in King Qi's ear: "King Ling sent someone to rob the princess from the Pure Princess Mansion. ”
When King Qi heard this, the hand holding the sword made a gurgling sound.
The joints are exposed as oppressed white.
He raised his hand at the man behind him.
Suddenly, thousands of horses jumped, raised large pieces of dust, and went straight to the palace gate.
……
At this time, everyone in the Heart Cultivation Hall wept.
The sharp arrows with Mars flew into the temple one after another, and the thin veil on the closed door had been burned to the ground.
Emperor Gao pursed his purple lips.
The eyes seemed to freeze.
For the first time, he thoroughly realized that neither life nor death was under his control, and that a generation of kings, in such a time of crisis, the imperial power was not enough.
He should regret sending away all the elite soldiers, should he regret that his ambition to dominate the world was too great to take down the entire Yue Kingdom, or should he regret giving birth to and raising the unfilial son of King Ling.
To be honest, he doesn't even have the right to regret it now.
A violent tremor came, and it was the Zhu Gate outside the Heart Cultivation Hall that was defeated.
Yan Song and King Rong retreated backwards to the Heart Cultivation Palace, both of them were like blood people.
At this time, Qi Qing'er's heart also mentioned her throat, and she secretly said in her heart, King Qi, Brother Junsheng, is this scene really going to be unbearable? Did something happen to you?
With Yan Song and King Rong retreating.
Everyone in the hall knew that life and death were close at hand, and they were so frightened that they forgot to cry, and they retreated to the empty area behind the old case of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Immediately afterwards, several enemy soldiers crashed into the temple.
Under Yan Song's command, the floor tiles that were as smooth as a mirror were washed in blood, and the bloody gas in the air became thicker and thicker, like a pungent stench, filled with the breath of a sluggish soul.
Then a succession of soldiers rushed in.
Qi Qing'er helped Concubine Hui and retreated behind a pillar surrounded by two people.
The firelight outside reflected the inside of the hall in half red.
Emperor Gao's face lost any expression.
The sound of assassination, the sound of drums, the roars, the clashing of weapons, the shouting of arrows and bows, and...... King Ling's roar.
The world was suddenly quiet.
Like a silent movie......
……
Until a person stood in, he straightened his waist without fear, and stepped into the Heart Cultivation Hall with his feet, as if he had brought in the aura of life.
The killing behind him gradually stopped.
The sunset sank completely, and the devouring fire came to an abrupt end behind him.
It's all too much like a silent movie.
Even the words he said dissipated in the Heart Cultivation Temple.
Some people were so excited that they burst into tears, some were so surprised that they forgot to breathe, and some people wanted to open their eyes wide and wide in disbelief.......
Everyone was moving silently.
Qi Qing'er got up and looked at the door of the hall, it was him, it was King Qi, he finally came in and caught the last train of his life.
King Qi quickly looked around the hall, and after finding Qi Qing'er, he gave a dragonfly a look like water, and then knelt down on one knee in front of Emperor Gao, "Erchen is too late to escort him!" ”
At this moment, Emperor Gao didn't ask the reason for King Qi's appearance, how he conquered King Ling's men, and how he ended this gunsmoke, all of this did not pass through his mind.
He got up stiffly, hesitated, hesitated, couldn't believe it, couldn't believe it, half a second later he almost pounced on King Qi, helped King Qi with both hands, trembling, excited, relieved, he looked at him with tears in his eyes for a few seconds, shook his lips and said: "Junsheng, well done, well done......" and then covered King Qi's bloodstained hand in the palm of his hand.
