Chapter 205: The Dust Has Settled
The relaxed appearance of the three of them had already made Murong Yue aware of their unusualness.
However, Ye Jian didn't have so much effort to make eye contact with them, and after landing on the ground, he immediately attacked Murong Yue. And Jiang Li and Xuan Ming beside him attacked the two masters beside Murong Yue respectively.
Naturally, the other guards saw that a master was making a move towards Murong Yue, so they hurriedly surrounded him, and attacked Ye Jian with five against one.
As for whether five can really be worth one, it's hard to say.
And Ye Jian quickly let everyone know that the answer is no.
As the head of the five masters of Yiyun Pavilion, as long as he goes out, it depends on his mood whether the other party has a way to live. Ye Jian has deep internal strength, strong martial arts, and is good at fingering, and the infernal finger is his unique skill, this fingering is based on the deep masculine internal strength, and then the qi royal finger, rigidity and softness, "between the fingers, discouraged, qi and blood", this is Jiang Mei's emotion when she saw Ye Jian practice the infernal finger.
However, today's battle is not enough for Ye Jian to use his unique skills, after all, he will have to mix in the rivers and lakes in the future, and he doesn't want people to know that it was the "Infernal Finger" who killed Murong Yue.
And with his usual attainments, it was more than enough to deal with these guards. On the contrary, the two guards with strong martial arts were left to Jiang Li and Xuan Ming.
Of course, Jiang Li's "Thousand Silk Snow" is not an indiscriminate ribbon, but a delicate silk that kills people without seeing blood. Wherever the silk goes, it will be cut veins and broken tendons, scarred, painful and miserable. At first, Murong Yue's warrior didn't understand the mystery and didn't guard against the silk. It wasn't until his arms were separated by two bloodless openings that he was shocked and understood the power of the silk, so he dodged left and right, so that he couldn't fight well at all. So Jiang Li smiled and accelerated the pace of the attack, making the master completely unable to parry.
And Blaze is a folding fan, which seems to have fancy moves and no lethality, but in fact, the folding fan has a lot of mechanisms, and there are all kinds of poisons for unknown purposes everywhere. Loud is not good at hard fighting. But skillful attack. Its light power is one of the best in the cabinet. At this time, he still did not change the fancy nature of the merry boy, and he had a lot of fun fighting with the master. So much so that the other party thought that Xuan Ming was playing with him. If he really thinks so, then it's troublesome, and Xuan Ming is taking advantage of his relaxed mind to inflict poison.
Murong Yue's master is not lost in martial arts. It's that he has never seen the tricks and sharp weapons of the killers of Yiyun Pavilion. I couldn't find a breakthrough for a while. Correct. Opportunities on the battlefield are fleeting, and a moment of negligence can bring about life-threatening fears. Xuan Ming and Jiang Li understood this truth, so the two took advantage of the two masters who failed to react. Subdue the opponent as quickly as possible.
Therefore, what made Murong Yue tremble was that his few personal guards with superb martial arts skills were actually defeated by the three black-clothed masters in front of him.
Is it really going to die here tonight? Murong Yue sighed secretly.
This battle lasted until four o'clock in the morning, Jiang Li and Xuan Ming both subdued each other after fighting each other for a hundred moves, Jiang Li directly cut the man's throat, making him die in an instant, while the other was convulsed all over his body at the moment because of Xuan Ming's "Golden Plate Dew", and he couldn't live long. And the guards under Ye Jian naturally had no way to live.
In the end, Murong Yue only had a dozen armor soldiers left, as well as Wei Miao, Zhao Xiang and Lu Ge, who were protecting him behind him.
Murong Yue stared at the tragically dead iron guards like that, without a trace of warmth in his eyes, defeated, he was defeated completely, and he was defeated without any vitality.
At this moment, a loud and snickering voice pierced the dead darkness.
"Oh, second brother, if you don't go to Kangzhuang Road, why do you insist on breaking into the palace at night and doing such a rebellious thing?" Murong Xi walked out of the darkness, dressed in gorgeous clothes, without a trace of stains.
Murong Yue raised his eyebrows and looked at him when he heard the sound, his cold eyes were like ice under a deep pool, which made people tremble. The guards around the prince couldn't help but shiver, but Chen Jingyan looked at Murong Yue indifferently, with a helpless sigh on the corner of his mouth.
Jing Yan swept his eyes and looked around at the mountains of corpses around him, and there was a cramping pain in his chest, and he lowered his head to hide the pain in his eyes. To put it bluntly, these thousands of people died in their own hands, could it be that for thousands of years, so the power has been built up by these white bones? Jing Yan smiled bitterly in his heart.
"Is Father alright?" After being silent for a long time, Murong Yue opened his mouth and asked, his tone turned out to be bitter, at this time, questioning and hating are meaningless, and if he loses, there is no need to find an excuse. He didn't blame Murong Xi, he didn't have the right to blame his opponent for being too ruthless, he only blamed himself for being too light on the enemy, and he was even a little anxious because of the pressure from Chang'an.
This is Murong Yue, even if he has been defeated, he still chooses to smile arrogantly instead of losing his soul. Chen Jingyan looked at his outstanding figure, with a trace of heartache and unbearable, how many years can such an outstanding coach produce one, and how sentimental it is that such a young peerless hero is as brilliant as a summer flower and then withered!
Murong Xi was stunned for a moment, he thought that Murong Yue would scold him, but no, he actually cared about his father who seemed to care for him very little.
"Father is really sick, I made him sick!" Murong Xi's face suddenly turned pale, and he said dumbly, at this moment, he didn't need to hide it anymore, but like a child who had done something wrong, his face was full of self-blame and pain.
Even he himself couldn't imagine that at the age of nineteen, he actually wanted to kill his father and brother, but now that his father is seriously ill, Murong Yue is waiting to be arrested with his bare hands, and all this is due to himself. He couldn't bear it, but he wouldn't stop, because killing and ruthlessness were essential on the path to that supreme, and if he wasn't ruthless, then he would be the one who would be captured today.
Murong Yue smiled dumbly when he heard this, he looked at the magnificent palace from a distance, and thought, can Murong Xi keep this half of the country? At this time, Murong Yue was not thinking about his own safety, but about the safety of the entire Dayan.
"Third brother, Dahuan's heavy troops threatened Chang'an and Luoyang, after I die, are you sure to repel them?" Murong Yue asked miserably, it is not a pity for him to die, but what about Dayan, Murong Xi has never fought at all, and they are not Xiao Moheng's opponents in any case.
"Huh. Second brother, I won't kill you now, killing you now will chill the hearts of the Dayan soldiers, so I will keep the second brother's life first, and after they repel the Huan army, I will give the second brother a ride! Murong Xi said calmly, his eyes as clear as autumn water.
Murong Yue laughed loudly, "Haha! Ha ha! There was desolation and sadness in the laughter, and of course there was a hint of appreciation. When did Murong Xi become so smart.
Immediately, he suddenly moved his gaze to Chen Jingyan beside Murong Xi. Seeing that he was dressed in a green shirt, calm and outstanding, at that moment he suddenly understood everything, it was not Murong Xi who was smart. It's the counselor beside him.
Chen Jingyan noticed his scrutinizing gaze. He smiled wryly. stepped forward and saluted, and said gently: "Under Chen Jingyan, I have seen His Royal Highness King Jin'an!" β
Murong Yue stared at him coldly. "Today's game is your handiwork, right?"
Chen Jingyan smiled dumbly, and then arched his hand and said: "Don't blame Your Highness, Jingyan doesn't dare to do things for the prince!" "Jing Yanli has been thoughtful for several times, and he has not been proud of defeating a heroic lord in the slightest.
"Your Excellency has an extraordinary bearing, why do you want to mess with me Dayan?" Lu Ge said contemptuously, if it weren't for him, the second prince would have won it tonight.
Jing Yan's expression froze, and he smelled the hostility in Lu Ge's tone, so he also replied lightly: "Lord Lu, as the secretary of the Great Yan Ministry, is not loyal to the Lord, but instead arouses the dispute between the prince and the prince, and lures His Royal Highness King Jin'an to go down such a conspiracy. β
"You!" Lu Ge's face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't say anything because of his words.
"Chen Gongzi is not only slightly outstanding, but also eloquent!" Murong Yue had to praise, it was a pity that such a person was by Murong Xi's side.
"His Royal Highness praises falsely, Jing Yan doesn't dare to be!" Jing Yan bowed again, and the color of appreciation and admiration was overflowing.
"Then please Gongzi Chen continue to assist His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to guard Dayan!" Murong Yue said lightly, he actually had the intention of pinning Dayan's safety on him.
Chen Jingyan trembled when he heard this, and looked at Murong Yue with a confused expression, his heart was really miserable, I was afraid that he would live up to Murong Yue's intentions. However, Chen Gongzi still gave a light salute and said, "Your Highness won't bother with these things!" β
Murong Yue smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Okay, Murong Xi, since ancient times, I have nothing to say, you can do what you want!" β
Murong Xi's spirit trembled when he heard this, and he said proudly: "The second prince broke into the forbidden palace at night, trying to usurp the rebellion, it is really a big rebellion, come and escort him and his comrades down, put him in the prison, and wait for the fate!" β
"Yes!" At this time, the guards around the prince immediately stepped forward to tie up Murong Yue and the others.
At the same time, the prince ordered Chen Jun to personally lead the troops to escort Murong Yue down.
Before leaving, Murong Yue didn't even look at Murong Xi, but glanced at Chen Jingyan, the faint smile in his eyes made people feel a little sad, and finally, he glanced around the majestic palace with a wry smile, wondering how long this prosperity would last.
One of the most tragic coups in the Great Yan Palace was calm before dawn, and after Murong Yue was taken away, Chen Jingyan ordered people to dispose of all the corpses, and the three top masters of Yiyun Pavilion naturally came and went without a trace, and they had already drifted away.
Early the next morning, the crown prince Murong Xi borrowed the hand of Emperor Yan and issued an edict resolutely, informing the world of the conspiracy between the second prince Murong Yue and Wang Shi Beihe to usurp the throne, and immediately deposed Murong Yue as a concubine, and the secretary of the Ministry Lu Ge, the guard Zhao Xiang, and the palace chief Shi Wei Ling Chi were executed.
Immediately afterwards, Murong Xi forced Emperor Yan to make a will, allowing Wei Ting, the leader of the central army, to lead troops to Chang'an and replace Beihe to preside over the anti-Huan plan. At the same time, Murong Xi again instructed Chen Jingyan to go with the will of the imperial court to take Beihe and the people of the Jin'an Royal Mansion into prison and detention. Chen Jingyan readily agreed to this order, and then rushed to Chang'an with the people of Yiyun Pavilion who were dressed in disguise last night.
After hearing the wishes of Emperor Yan and the crown prince, the Great Yan Imperial Court, which was already panicked, suddenly fell like the sky had fallen, and the six gods had no master. Half of the ministers in the central government were heartbroken about the imprisonment of the second prince, and they all sighed for a long time, the enemy was on the side, the commander of the three armies was imprisoned, how could Dayan defeat the enterprising Huan army.
However, Emperor Yan was seriously ill, the crown prince was in charge of the country, and Murong Yue's night attack on the palace was ironclad, and these ministers had bitter water and could not vomit, and their anger did not dare to show their anger. The soldiers are pressing, the court is in turmoil, and everything in my heart is already discouraged.
While the other half of the ministers lamented the fate of the second prince, they also admired the prince's thunderous methods, and hoped that this new generation of lords could sweep away Dayan's obscure court, and take Dayan to regroup and repel strong enemies.
But all the courtiers, without exception, knew that Dayan had changed the sky......
In the Jin'an Palace, Beihe received a battle report that shocked him.
"Military division, last night the Huan army quietly attacked the street pavilion, our army was defeated, and the Huan army crossed Longshan and rushed towards Chen Cang!" The guards reported in horror.
Beihe's face was as white as a blank sheet of paper, and he hurriedly got up and walked forward tremblingly, so frightened that the attendant beside him hurriedly supported him.
"Aren't they attacking Sanguan?" Kitatsuru asked incredulously,
The guard nodded, "Yes, it is indeed the main force of the Huan Army's West Road outside the Sanguan, but the Huan Army also has a silver-faced general who did not go out of the Slope Valley from the Bao Slope Road, but bypassed the ambush of our army and attacked Wuguan from the side by taking the small road!" β
Beihe closed his eyes, took two steps back, and suddenly felt weak, and sat down on the ground in a dejected manner.
"Go, call General Li Qitian over!" Beihe was powerless. The guard was ordered to withdraw.
Beihe hung his head, thinking about the current battle situation, obviously the Huan army in the west of Chang'an used the main force to confuse the Yan army to attack Sanguan, but in fact, he sent a force to quietly attack the Longshan area in the northwest of Chang'an, and took the opportunity to seize the important pass of Jieting. Now that Chang'an has collapsed, once a hole is torn, the Huan army will pour into Chang'an like a tide.
As soon as the western corner is lost, the Sanguan will be lost sooner or later, it turns out that Xiao Moheng did not attack the pass, but in fact, it was to drag the main force of the Yan army and break through the defense line from the west. Unexpectedly, Xiao Moheng is young and has no last resort, and he can be called a soldier. Beihe suddenly smiled bitterly, it seemed that that trick had to be used.
Just as Beihe was pondering, Li Qitian strode in, he saw Beihe sitting on the ground with a pale face, his eyes suddenly widened, he quickly came over and knelt beside him, and looked at him fixedly.
Beihe smiled comfortingly at him, so he didn't say anything, and only ordered: "Qitian, the Huan army has crossed Longshan and comes, they must enter Chencang, there are still 10,000 soldiers and horses in the city, you immediately lead these 10,000 horses to the right of Chencang to stop the Huan army from attacking!" β
Li Qitian nodded heavily, he held Beihe's hand tightly, and he smiled warmly at Beihe, signaling him to rest assured.
Beihe's heart was moved, his eyes ached, and he couldn't help but smile at him.
Li Qitian then let go of his hands, gave a salute to Beihe, and ran out without looking back. (To be continued......)
