Chapter 253: Fire and Water!

Typos are passed on first and then corrected. Don't blame the girl!

------Off topic------

The "Ten Heavenly Dry" behind him got the order, shouted "Get the order", and jumped up vigorously, surrounded the gate of the Qianqing Palace, and formed a confrontation with Zhao Mianze's pro-army.

"It's cool!?" Zhao Zun comprehended, the corners of his lips curled slightly, "It's good to be cool." As soon as the words fell, the blade of the sword in his hand was raised.

"No, it feels good!"

Then, she smiled and wrapped her arms around him.

Xia Chuqi sneered and raised his eyebrows.

"Ah Qi, are you nervous?"

His cold eyes looked at Xia Chuqi at his side.

"Huh!" With a sound, Zhao Zhu didn't answer.

Zhao Mianze said: "There are still 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Gyeonggi camp, and they are guarding the city. The Praetorian Guard, the Jinyi Guard, and my own army have surrounded the Qianqing Palace like an iron bucket, and the Nineteenth Emperor Uncle ......" He glanced at the person in front of him again, and the smile on his lips was much gentler, "What can you do with this rabble?" Why don't you kneel down and plead now, for the sake of the queen, or may I spare your life? ”

"You can see if you win or lose."

Zhao Bottle stood facing the wind and rain, and his tone was cold.

Zhao Mianze glanced at the heavily armored and sword-wise people behind him, and smiled contemptuously, "It's not that I underestimated the Nineteenth Emperor Uncle, although you have heart, courage, and strategy." Today alone, I'm afraid there will only be no return! ”

"You think I wouldn't dare?"

Zhao Jun looked at him fixedly, and the cold blade of the tip of the sword in his hand pointed at him.

"But the matter has come to this, you and my uncle and nephew, there is no turning back. If you want this country, this world, and my woman, there is only one way - to step on my corpse. ”

Looking at him, Zhao Mianze stroked the dragon chair and smiled faintly, "Uncle Nineteen Emperors, Mianze respects you and values you, and I want to be a person like you in my dreams." If you can, I am willing to let you sit in the dragon chair under me, only to change it for ......" Skimming Xia Chuqi's cold little face without any emotion, he thought of those paintings with her tenderness that he had seen in the Chutz courtyard, pursed his lips, and when he spoke again, his voice had added some hoarseness and trembling that was almost invisible.

"Emperor Hongtai of the Qing Dynasty." Zhao Tuo looked at him coldly, "The person who killed the monarch and seized the throne around Emperor Hongtai of the Qing Dynasty. ”

"Qingjun's side? Qing He Jun's side? What kind of traitorous person is clear? ”

"This king is only for the Qingjun side!"

Zhao Jun looked at him coldly and took a step forward.

"Is this a rebellion?"

"Uncle Nineteen Emperors is not defending against the enemy in the south, and openly leads troops to the Qianqing Palace, what is his intention?" With a sneer, he glanced at the little woman beside Zhao Zhu, the past was like a thousand thin threads, entangled in the bottom of his heart, pulling out a piece of blood, his heart ached, and his voice couldn't help but intensify violently.

He faced the gate, his eyes were half-closed and half-eyed, he looked like an old monk in a calm state, his expression was extremely calm, and at such a point, he still maintained an arrogant imperial atmosphere.

While speaking, the door of the vermilion lacquer palace opened with a "clang", revealing a bright yellow dragon robe inside, and a Zhao Mianze sitting under the wind and snow.

"Such a cowardly person should be killed!" At this time, in the vermilion door of the Qianqing Palace, there was a ruthless, but calm voice, "I'm not dead yet, I'm afraid of this." If I really die, he still can't follow the thief to kill me? He Chengan, it's not a pity for you to die. ”

"You're begging me?" Zhao Tuo glanced at his face lightly, only to see a flash of sword light, everyone didn't know how he made his hand, He Chengan's exclamation sank into the wind and snow, only where his chest was, blood splattered out, shocking his unbelievable face.

"No, no, no, King Jin spares his life, spares his life, listen to me-"

Suddenly, He Cheng'an said "mother", hugged his head and scurried, fell on the snow in fright, and shouted loudly.

"It seems that Gonggong He wants to be the first person under the sword of this king today."

Zhao Zhu snorted coldly, and drew his sword with a "swish", pointing at him.

The cold sweat on He Chengan's back was wet, and he almost shouted out a sentence in his throat.

"King Jin, you dare!"

"Ridiculous!" Zhao Zhu stood by the sword, and said in a deep voice, "My father, Emperor Long, is in good health, and has not been rumored to be ill, but he suddenly fell to the ground in Yujingyuan, and he couldn't afford to be sick. Xiaoxiao, don't get out of the way, don't blame me for killing you to sacrifice the flag! ”

He Cheng'an broke out in a cold sweat, "Your Majesty is not awake now, how can you see Your Highness?" Why don't you go back first, Your Highness? He Chengan responded stiffly.

Zhao Zhu's face was cold, his voice was even colder, he was wearing armor, and he emitted an indifferent cold air, "This king wants to see my father, who dares to stop it?" ”

The person who shouted at the top of his voice was He Chengan. Looking at Zhao Zhu, who was dressed in black heavy armor in front of him, his feet were actually trembling a little, but he still had to shout these words.

"Whoever comes, don't stand still!"

All the way to the gate of the Qianqing Palace, he was finally stopped.

Zhao Zhu's men and horses broke into the Qianqing Palace all the way, and encountered obstacles in the middle, but they did not spend much effort, except for a few people who were slightly injured, they did not lose a single soldier.

In the snowflakes in the sky, the Qianqing Palace is brightly lit. The majestic red wall and golden tiles are imposing. But under the miserable white light, there was a dead silence.

The wind was still blowing.

~

With that, he walked away and never looked back.

"You wait for me."

He looked at the woman in front of him and took two steps back.

Zhao Kai's gloomy eyes shone brightly, the blood struck, and the strength of his body almost pierced through the armor on his body, and the decision that he had not been able to make before finally had a result.

Rather than living inactively, but dying vigorously.

The wind and rain swept on Zhao Kai's hard armor, scraping his face with great pain, looking at the red wall of the palace city in front of him, as if he had become a monster with a bloody mouth, its white and miserable fangs, it seemed that he would swallow it in the next moment.

But this is the imperial city, the capital of the emperor. Although he is the son of the emperor, he has the dignity of a prince, and he holds the forbidden army of the imperial city, but he can't step forward to hug his beloved woman, and even take a serious look at her face, he has to worry about whether he will be bumped into.

Countless days and nights of thoughts came to my heart in an instant.

Zhao Kai was stunned.

"In this deep palace, everyone is in danger, everyone is not a person, and a woman is not a person. I'm fed up with days like this, I don't want to stay anymore - Rokuro, you take me away, I miss the time when I didn't enter the palace, I ...... With you, it's just the two of us, such a good day...... Now, is there no going back? ”

Such familiar words, is it an ordinary dialogue between a prince and a palace concubine? But the woman obviously didn't feel strange, but softened her tone, the previous alienation was gone, and her voice was extremely resentful.

"Are you feeling better?"

Zhao Kai glanced at her, waved away the people around him, and took a few steps closer to the woman, but in order to avoid suspicion, he was not too close, but he could just see the pale complexion under her luxurious makeup.

The woman's face was cold, "Passing by." After saying the two words, she paused, and said proudly: "There are a few words, I want to say it alone with the sixth master, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

Zhao Kai frowned, "Why is Niangniang here?" ”

A quiet voice came from behind him, and he suddenly turned his head. I saw that in the wind and snow, a woman in palace clothes wearing a cloak of hibiscus-colored flowers and soft satin and leading two palace maids stood there, extremely graceful.

"Sixth Masterβ€”"

In the history of any dynasty, there are not a few people who died because they stood on the wrong line. He didn't dare to offend Zhao Zhu, but now that the situation is complicated, he can't blindly go astray, and it will be difficult to turn over from now on.

The battle was about to begin, Zhao Kai stroked the hand of the hilt, and felt chills.

There is his mother concubine there, as long as Concubine Gong is there, he will be restrained by Zhao Mianze, which is not surprising to Zhao Kai. But Zhao Mianze's reaction will be so fast, one step faster than his "half of an insider", not only led his own soldiers to guard the Qianqing Palace first, but also ordered the arrest of the people of the Jin Palace, which is not low at all.

Zhao Zun mixed into the palace, and he would definitely go to the Qianqing Palace first.

The forbidden army ran to the place with a snort, as if he was greatly frightened, and his voice was full of tremors, "Sixth master, the king of Jin broke into the inner city with thousands of men and horses, and went straight to the Qianqing Palace. Your Majesty has an order, Sixth Master, you quickly lead people to support the Qianqing Palace. ”

"Report!"

The man quickly closed his eyes, and at this moment, another voice was heard in the distance.

Zhao Kai's brows furrowed, and his voice was fierce, "What are you shouting?" Don't want to die? ”

A lieutenant suddenly realized and shouted loudly.

"Oh no, an assassin has entered the palace."

No one expected that under that stone slab, there were several corpses of the Praetorian Guards. These people are the guards in charge of this place, why were they killed silently? The most important thing is that under the slate, it is pitch black, and there is no end in sight......

There were many people who could do things, and soon, the snow and blood on the bluestone slab were swept away, and the slate that was a little loose was also cut open by them. It's just that as soon as the slate was opened together, everyone was shocked.

"Move out and see."

Zhao Kai's heart sank, looked at the people around him, and frowned and ordered.

The soldier was so frightened that he raised his head and said in horror, "My subordinates were in a hurry to urinate before, and I didn't have time to run to the hut, so I secretly ran here to make it easier...... As a result, his urine washed away the snow on the bluestone slab, revealing the blood below.

"What's going on?" Zhao Kai shouted in a low voice.

Zhao Kai glanced at him, frowned, and led a group of people led by him around a vermilion palace wall, and stopped under a very hidden corner. I saw that there was a trace of unclear blood on the bluestone slab under the residual snow there.

"Sixth Master, hurry up and take a look."

Immediately afterwards, a soldier stumbled over, and when he saw Zhao Kai, the king of Su who was frowning and striding a meteor, he reported in a panic.

A long exclamation broke the silence.

"Ahβ€”β€”!h

In the gloomy sky, the lights in the palace were already on, and the soldiers around the imperial city walked around nervously, inspecting the place they defended with their lives.

The wind and snow are like a cold blade, frantically cutting the land of Beijing. In the imperial city, there was a vast white expanse, like a shrouded aura of slaughter. The Fengtian Gate in front and the Xuanwu Gate in the rear were surrounded by soldiers and horses from the Praetorian Guard and the three major battalions of Gyeonggi.

The life of a king is never predestined, it will only be a gamble of death and death. When there is no way forward, even if you stumble, even if you will eventually die, you must fight your way out. It doesn't matter if they are greeted by splendid prosperity, or cliffs and abysses.

"Subordinates take orders!"

Ragula and the old man looked at each other, and their eyebrows were beaming.

"Send them to you."

His light voice seemed to come from the night sky on the Mobei Plateau, cold and clear, and seemed to be accompanied by overwhelming snow, blowing over.

"Raguraβ€”"

Lagula, who was originally standing beside Dongfang Qingxuan, also knelt down silently. Dongfang Qingxuan looked at them, slowly got up and turned his head, tore off a piece of white cloth covering the sacrificial table in the hall, looked at the spirit tablet written in Mongolian on it, put on three sticks of incense, stared for a moment, and finally lifted the robe on his body and slowly knelt down.

The other man looked at him and knelt down.

The old man swallowed and knelt in front of him.

"Noyan ......"

Dongfang Qingxuan half-squinted, his eyes were gloomy, the emotions on his face were uncertain, and his fingers were gently caressing and caressing on the teacup, as if he was caressing all his past over the years, caressing his vicissitudes of life in just over the past twenty years. Under the dim light, his silent figure was gilded with a layer of cold light.

But there was still only a cold wind in the house, and no one answered.

Sentence after sentence, they don't tire of it.

"Nuoyan is in Nanyan Jingshi, so he must not know it. It's winter again, the weather on the grassland is bitter cold, the cattle and sheep have frozen to death, and the people on the grassland lack food and clothing, so they have to wander around the border areas of Nanyan and the north, relying on robbery and forcible robbery to survive...... We are also the children of the true God, why can the people of Nanyan take advantage of the advantages given by God to live a better life, so we have to withdraw from the customs and suffer such hardships? ”

After the old man finished speaking, the young man choked up again.

The old man added, "This is not only an entrustment, but also an order from the Great Khan. Noyan, you don't have to carry too much, everything you do is for the children of the grassland, for the glory of the clan, and for the soul of the deceased......"

Another young man looked at him and frowned, "Without further ado, Nuoyan, give the order!" Those dark brothers have been in Nanyan for so many years, and they are waiting for today. ”

"The timing is not easy, it's going to be in a flash, Nuoyan."

The old man was originally a steady and mature person, but this time he seemed to be in a hurry, the green tendons on his forehead were beating, looking at Dongfang Qingxuan's ugly wrist, and the speed of speech became faster and faster.

"Noyan, the ancestors are all looking at you, the Great Khan is watching you, and the thousands of people on the grassland are also looking at you...... Also, the old master is also watching you under the Nine Springs. Back then, Nanyan soldiers and horses, blood splashed on Yin Mountain, killed your father, and humiliated your mother...... How can you endure it? ”

Without his left hand, he can't live?

But now does he have to wait?

He remembered that the woman had said that she would make her a living left hand, which could connect well with his wrist and move normally, so that he could solve his daily life......

Dongfang Qingxuan interrupted him, raised his left arm, slowly rolled up the red sleeves, looked at the ugly scar on his left wrist, and was silent for a long time.

"Needless to say, let me think about it."

"The time is fleeting, don't hesitate any longer. The Great Khan has been waiting for all these years, and you have been wronged in Dayan for so many years, isn't it just to look forward to the present day? You see that you have broken your hand, and day after day you are willing to make a wedding dress for the enemy......"

With a word of surprise, the two men stood up.

"Noyan ......"

"Don't worry, I won't let the Great Khan down, and I won't be sorry...... The fathers of my family. It is not a good strategy to act rashly and rashly send troops. You must know that whether it is Zhao Mianze or Zhao Zhu, they are not good. What's more, Hasar is still in Beijing...... What you think we can think of, he won't think of? That man is also a wolf's heart, and I will not do anything that has no chance of winning. ”

The situation is changing rapidly, but at present, Zhao Mianze and Zhao Zhu are competing with each other, and they are profiting, which is a good time. But after listening to their words, Dongfang Qingxuan's face, which had always been calm and smiling, was rarely solemn, and his tone also added a touch of coldness.

Every word of the old man seemed to be rolling on the tip of a knife, sounding relaxed, but every note was carrying droplets of blood, which was creepy and tense.

"The matter of the Jin Palace, I think Lagula has already informed you. The great changes in the palace have become a fact, this is a good time that is rare in a hundred years, and the Nanyan court is about to change...... A few days ago, after getting your tip, the Great Khan sent us to secretly infiltrate Nanyan, and sent us to tell you that the 200,000 troops in the north are ready to standby, and the dark people arranged in Nanyan Jingzhong in the past ten years can also be used at any time. ”

There were two people dressed in the costumes of the Dayan people, but their faces were obviously dark and rough, like men from the grassland, one was older and the other was young, when they saw him come in, they got up and shouted "Nuoyan" in Mongolian obediently, seeing that Dongfang Qingxuan's expression changed, he quickly changed to Nanyan's official dialect and reported the situation.

Ragula went down, Dongfang Qingxuan went back to the house to change out of the robe that was wet with the baby's urine, sniffed helplessly, frowned and hurriedly washed up, and then walked to the main hall.

After listening to everything, his chin raised slightly, and he smiled, "Let the two of them wait in the main hall first, and go to this seat later." ”

Listening to his words, Dongfang Qingxuan's complexion changed one by one.

Lagula ordered to wave his hand and let the two brocade clothes go to the errand of the metropolitan governor, but he stepped forward with a solemn expression, bowed down to Dongfang Qingxuan's ear, and said a few words.

The nurse trembled and thanked her, and took the little swaddling baby away.

"What don't you do?" Dongfang Qingxuan smiled, the demonic aura on her lips was heavier, as bright as a spring flower, "Lagula, go, put half of the silver in the baby's house, and the other half, ask someone to bring it to her husband, for the New Year, add some clothes for her children, and buy some New Year's goods." ”

"Slave maid...... Don't dare to ask for anything, don't dare to ask for anything. ”

The nurse's feet trembled, and her voice was even colder.

With that, he chuckled and shouted "Agoura", and the silent guard led the other two brocade men in. One of them was holding two bloody human heads in his hands. In the tray of another brocade rook, there were several ingots of white silver, which shook her eyes.

The cold sweat on her face was dense, but Dongfang Qingxuan glanced at her, but her tone relaxed, "Get up, don't kneel at every turn, just shout for mercy, this seat is so kind, where can you kill?" As long as you take good care of her, you will not be able to benefit from this seat. If you want to do things behind your back, you can only do the same as them. ”

Say it's nervous, the more gibberish.

"The eldest lord spares his life, the slave and maid can't speak, and they are in a hurry...... The slave maid wants to say...... The child is hungry and wants to feed, but the old man has no milk to feed, so I am afraid that it will not be able to coax it. ”

And she herself has a family and a business, a husband and children, and she is reluctant to die or be separated from them. Almost subconsciously, as soon as her feet went weak, she knelt down.

She was one of the two nurses that Dongfang Qingxuan found for the baby in swaddling clothes. Although she didn't know Dongfang Qingxuan's identity, she knew that the other two milk babies who came with her had disappeared unconsciously. She didn't dare to be naΓ―ve to think that they were put home by this good-looking but devil-like old man.

The nurse had a chill down her spine, and she was silent when she landed.

Dongfang Qingxuan's smiling expression was restrained, and his face was extremely cold, "You don't want to die?" ”

Seeing him like this, the nurse was very helpless, and she didn't think too much, so she said, "This kid is very recognizable, and the eldest man is not his own father, I'm afraid it's really not good to coax." ”

"This seat can kill people, can resist the enemy, can stand in the midst of thousands of armies unscathed, can't even a little milk baby be coaxed?"

A sister-in-law in her thirties hung her head and wanted to come and pick up the child in his hands. She is the nurse of the little baby, and these things are originally within her own account, but Dongfang Qingxuan avoided it without a trace and glanced at her.

"Master, let's hold it as a slave."

Dongfang Qingxuan let go of the cruel words, glancing at the embroidered spring knife he put on the side, it looked extremely ruthless, but the arm without the left hand was a little looser, and the right hand patting the swaddling clothes was also gentle. I don't know if it's for the innocent infant soul who was slaughtered by the embroidered spring knife, or for this child who had to leave his parents as soon as he was born, he has always killed people but never frowned, his two demonic sword eyebrows were tightly locked, and he looked helpless, which was extremely embarrassing.

"Cry again, cry again and kill you!"

No matter what he says, but the little milk baby in her hand, who is only more than 100 days old, where can she understand words? The more impatient he was, the more he coaxed her, her little mouth was aggrieved, and she cried harder, and she was crying so hard that bubbles came out of her nostrils, which looked funny and funny.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Wow...... Wow......"

"There is food and drink holding you, you don't know what to do!"

"Wow...... Wow......"

"Don't cry anymore!"

Just when the Jin Palace's palace was raided and arrested by the Beijing army led by Xie Changjin, and the guests ran and panicked, making the chickens and dogs restless, and the crying shook the sky, in the courtyard of the water pavilion built on the lake on the outskirts of the city, Dongfang Qingxuan was walking around the house with a swaddling baby, with an extremely strange look.

The sky was even darker, the cold wind was raging, and the land was covered with snow.

~

"Old horseman, we'll see!"

Yuan You's face was cold, Yin Qi closed his mouth, turned around and left.

Xie Changjin snorted, and raised the hand in his hand again, "Little grandfather, see clearly, this is stamped with His Majesty's seal, if you don't want the Chengguo Mansion to be handled by His Majesty, please leave, don't affect the old man's errand here." ”

"What are you talking about?"

Yuan Yu looked up, glared at him, and stood up with a pout.

"Anyone who resists will be killed!"

After a pause, he sneered, looked at Yuan You, and slowly said the last sentence.

Xie Changjin said loudly, "Zhao Zhu, the king of Jin, didn't think about the emperor's grace, ignored the great cause of the country, and left privately on the occasion of the Great War in Southern Xinjiang and went to Beijing secretly...... It is a great sin. Xie Changjin, the secretary of the military department, after the order, the Jin Wangfu was confiscated and destroyed, and all men and women in the palace were sent to the prison to await trial......"

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!"

He raised the things in his hand high, and everyone in the courtyard was stunned and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty's handwritten decree is here, and you won't kneel down yet-"

Fengtian Temple naturally pointed to Zhao Mianze, Xie Changjin did not dare to slack off, flicked his sleeves and took the chapter with the private seal of Emperor Jianzhang from the hands of the soldiers, his face changed slightly, and when he turned back to look at Yuan You, his steps were not stiff, his mind was active, and his eyes became ruthless.

"Lord Xie, Fengtian Palace's handwritten order."

He was clearly disrespectful, but Xie Changjin didn't find King Jin in the mansion, so he couldn't help it. For a while, the hatred was in my heart, and I had to suppress it, and even my steps stiffened when I turned around. But before he could go out, he saw a soldier rushing in.

"I know that the master is doing a happy event, why don't you get out of here?"

Yuan You loved to listen to the phrase "do happy events", and immediately smiled.

"Then the official will retire first, disturbing the little grandfather to do a happy event."

Xie Changjin was choked by him, his old face was red, he couldn't enter, he couldn't retreat, he was not a person on the left and right, he was silent for a moment, looked at the people around him with ridicule, and was ruthless.

"I heard that Lord Xie came to invite King Jin by holy decree? It's a pity that the king of Jin is fighting in the south, and I'm afraid he won't be able to come back for a while. Do you sit here drinking and waiting for a few months, or do you simply invite the master to the palace? ”

Yuan You was just trying to hold him back, and when he saw this, he secretly scolded "old horseman", so he withdrew his gaze, raised his hand to admire his red groom's fake sleep sleeve robe, his face was a little more comfortable, and his voice was even more careless.

"The lower official is at fault! Please forgive me. ”

Yuan You is a gentleman, but he is rarely violent, he has always looked like he is not in tune, and there is no old grudge between him and Xie Changjin, and he is also a joke with a few words of kindness, and now Xie Changjin sees him like this, and even moved Emperor Hongtai and Prince Yide out, his face was cold, and he quickly knelt on one knee.

"!" Yuan You slapped the table, stood up on the ground, pointed at his nose and scolded him, "Okay, you Xie Changjin, I don't know who the little master is?" Even Taiye Hong, Prince Yide and Emperor Jianzhang have never scolded the master like this, are you guts? ”

"Little grandfather, the old man is also an important minister in the court, and you have to pay attention to a little bit of proportion when you speak. Such a disrespectful insult to a dignified second-class member, if it falls into the ears of His Majesty, I am afraid that you will not be able to eat and walk around. ”

Everybody knows that. Seeing Xie Changjinqing's pale face, some guests couldn't hold it back, and they already laughed lowly. Xie Changjin's face became more and more unbearable, and his face was extremely ugly.

Yuan Yu teased people, and his tone was extremely disrespectful.

"If it weren't for the dead, what would such a fierce and vicious army do?"

"Why did the little grandfather say this?"

If Yuan Yu seems to be smiling but not smiling, it is extremely bad. Xie Changjin was slightly stunned, and when he saw his damaged face, it was like eating a fly in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out, with a constipated expression.

"Lord Xie, is your family dead?"

It's a pity...... Except for the groom who was sitting lazily in the hall, only a few guests who had not left were whispering, and there was no shadow of Zhao Zhu and the queen at all.

Xie Changjin got the order this time, as soon as he entered the mansion, it was arrogant, and the soldiers stepped on the remnant snow with the sound of "chirping", with a breath of cold air through the main hall, through the hall, all the way to search and find, and finally surrounded the Chengde Courtyard where Zhao Zhu lived.

Zhao Mianze wanted to move Zhao Zhu for more than a day or two, but he couldn't find an excuse to deal with him. In the era of imperial power, even as an emperor, he could not do whatever he wanted. This development is actually an opportunity and a boost for Zhao Mianze. On the day of the emperor's wedding, the queen disappeared, if he searched out in the palace of the king of Jin, not to mention the crime of Zhao Zhu leaving the war and returning to Beijing without permission, he would not be able to get rid of the article of robbing the queen alone. No matter how high his prestige is, he will have to fall from the altar.

Afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, Xie Changjin no longer had ink with Tian Fu, waved the handle of the knife and pushed him away, and commanded a group of soldiers to break in, wanting to have a "stolen goods and get it", in order to comfort his daughter's spirit in the sky, and casually make a contribution in front of the emperor.

"Is the decree shown to you? When he sees King Jin, the old man will read it out. ”

Tian Fu was still trying to delay time, but Xie Changjin was already impatient.

"Lord Xie, may I ask where the Holy Purpose is!"

"Sue the Emperor?" Xie Changjin seemed to have heard a big joke, snorted heavily, and was laughed angrily by Tian Fu, "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, the old man came to greet King Jin at the behest of His Majesty." You little old man, get out of the way. ”

"Although the little one is only a small manager of the Jin Palace, he still knows that the country is in trouble and the husband is responsible. At present, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is for the country and the people, and he is fighting against the Una barbarians in the south, and he can't even catch up with the big wedding with Princess Wuren, who doesn't know about this? Lord Xie is like this, it is clearly difficult for a strong man. Although the small ones are not talented, they also dare to sue the royal court. It's really urgent, and you can't please Lord Xie. ”

"Lord Xie-" Tian Fu had a bitter face, looking helpless, "The little one has already told the Lord before, and the King of Jin is not in the mansion. After a pause, he glanced at the bucket-like soldiers behind Xie Changjin, and sighed faintly.

"The old man asked to see His Royal Highness King Jin."

Xie Changjin stroked his gray beard and snorted coldly.

"Master Xie, what is this going on?"

Immediately afterwards, Tian Fu's white and chubby face appeared behind the door, and he was honestly afraid.

But after only two sounds, the door of the Jin Wang's Mansion was opened from the inside before it was opened.

The sound of logs banging on the door was muffled.

"Bang-bang-"

With a cold snort, Xie Changjin ordered again. When the door failed, a huge log carried by more than a dozen soldiers rushed up and crashed into the gilded gate of the Jin Palace.

But there was still no movement inside.

In the past few years, the King of Jin has never given him a face, and now he salutes first and then soldiers, and the people of the Jin Palace's mansion do not give him face, the depression in his heart has already turned into anger, and he is holding a heavy army, and with a wave of his hand, he asked the attendants to go and knock on the door again.

A few years ago, one of his daughters hanged herself here.

In front of the snowy Jin Palace, the message of "asking to see His Royal Highness the King of Jin" was passed in for a long time, but there was no response, and Xie Changjin, who was the leader of the army, finally couldn't help it.

A huge city seems to have fallen into a deep sleep.

This day is the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month of the twenty-seventh year of Hongtai, and the Jingshi City is preparing to welcome the New Year and the arrival of the first year of the founding of the chapter, like a hell on earth.

As if to cater to the atmosphere of the capital on this day, just after noon, the sky with heavy wind and snow became dark and dreary, and the dim sky was shrouded like a black cloth. Fog, heavy snow, cold winds, and very low visibility in the city. The wind and snow are blowing the signboard in front of the shop, and the city has long been unable to find the joy of the New Year, and the red lanterns are still hanging under the eaves, but no one lights them.

~

"Subordinates obey!"

As soon as the two words came out, Zhao Zhu's voice was as cold as frost.

"Let's go!"

"In!" Jia Yi led Jia Ziwei's men and horses, originally standing in the first column, hearing this, he answered, walked to the side, and raised the "Jin" flags that had been prepared for a long time, and distributed them to the leader of the "Ten Heavenly Stems". In order to make it easier to distinguish from Zhao Mianze's men and horses, he distributed red scarves with the "Ten Heavenly Stems" logo and passed them to the soldiers wearing exactly the same armor and tied them around their arms.

Zhao Zhu frowned, and said coldly, "Jiayi!" ”

"I've been ready for a long time, just waiting for His Highness's words!"

After Zhao Zhu finished speaking, he shouted again.

"That's good, the king is the king, there is such a move."

In the roar, Xia Chuqi's blood was ignited again, holding the steel knife hanging from her waist, she glanced at Zhao Zhu's cold and unwavering face, and felt that he was born to be a general, and the strength to command people's hearts was very human. Just three or two sentences can make people want.

The basement was empty and echoy.

"Swear to live and die with Your Highness!"

"Swear to live and die with Your Highness!"

She quietly looked at the people in the basement, thinking that there would always be someone who hesitated and flinched, after all, it was a matter of life and death. But I didn't expect it, but in an instant, everyone knelt on the ground in unison, clasped their fists and said in unison, "Nine deaths, five steps of blood spare, I swear to live and die with His Highness!" ”

Real war, after all, is different.

Xia Chuqi knew that this was called pre-war mobilization. It is also a psychological behavior that can unite people's hearts. Thinking about her previous life, every time she heard about the pre-war mobilization, she would be full of blood and ruthlessness, but it was not a real battle of life and death after all.

His words were loud and clear.

"But I, Zhao Zhu, will never take my own selfishness and disregard my brother's life in vain. Although the enemy is current, I still give you a quarter of an hour to think about it, and if you don't want to wade into troubled waters, you can leave on your own and live in peace. Those who followed me to the imperial city died nine times, and blood was spattered for five steps, and I am afraid that they would not die well. You think about it. ”

After saying the sonorous and powerful words, his tone changed.

"When this king first joined the Jin Wei Army, as a prince, he was restrained and bullied. At that time, I swore that one day I would become strong and unspeakable, and I would no longer be subjected to that unwarranted evil spirit. Later, I finally killed the bloody road, held a heavy army, and was a very good minister. When I first formed this 'Ten Heavenly Dry', I only wanted to protect myself, and never took the initiative. But now, Zhao Mianze imprisoned my father, forbade my mother's concubine, and robbed my woman, if I don't return a tooth for a tooth, I will die with blood, and I will be a man in vain. ”

"Everyone!" Zhao Zun's heavy armor was on his body, and his face was even more cold, and a pair of secluded eyes glanced at the black head in the basement, and in his resolute eyes, every beam of light was like a murderous knife.

She didn't expect that this was not only a battle for hegemony in the "invasion of the imperial city", but also the beginning of a killing that was deliberately erased in the history books long after.

But the road to the pole is not all the way to flowers.

In the silence before this storm, Xia Chuqi was dressed in a cold and hard robe, quietly listening to Zhao Zhu's arrangement of the next action steps, and the blood was piling up in his chest, piling up, piling up a splendid blueprint of the Jin Ge Iron Horse, and he couldn't wait to pick up the steel knife in his hand immediately, enter the imperial city, and take revenge.

air, extremely low pressure.

In the basement, there is a faint cold breeze blowing.

Is this guy already prepared?

The corners of his lips curled slightly, and he stopped talking to her, but walked straight to the middle of the basement. There was a large wooden desk, and above it, there was a completely spread out map. Xia Chuqi followed curiously, and when he got closer, he found that it was not an ordinary map, but a map of the entire Imperial City of Dayan, including the plane diagram of various traffic arteries. Accurate and detailed, you can see at a glance that you have put a lot of effort into it.

"See? There are cows flying in the sky! ”

Xia Chuqi believed him, but still rolled his eyes.

"Don't worry, what I'm going to do has my own chances of winning."

He ignored the gazes of others and squeezed her hand.

"In my dictionary, I have never been afraid of words." She laughed.

"Are you afraid?" He turned his head abruptly to see her pale face.

If you lose, you will never be able to live beyond your life.

If you win, you can get a thousand bright faces.

She knows very well that this is not a siege game that online players use a mouse and keyboard to operate, and the characters can be resurrected with full health when they die. This is a temple dispute that is related to the life and death of countless people, and even related to the pattern of the world. Now it's not just her and his safety, but also everyone in the basement tied up on their rope.

Zhao Jun is calm, calm, and indifferent, no matter what time it is, no matter what happens, he has never seen tension and panic on his face. But looking at him so relaxed, Xia Chuqi's heart was tightened.
