On a mountain peak not far from Mochizuki Lake, Mu Qiubo stood on his horse.

In my ears, I could hear the faint sound of shouting and killing.

His butler walked up quickly, looked at the situation in the distance carefully, and said very nervously: "Lord Wang, the fight has already started, let's go and rescue the driver, in case it is too late, they will really get it......"

"You don't want them to succeed either?"

Mu Qiubo didn't look back, and asked indifferently.

The housekeeper was stunned, staring directly at the back of their prince and handsome man, and then seemed to understand something, and said:

"Lord Wang, the death of the old prince has nothing to do with the emperor, I just hate today's cruelty and unreasonableness, jealousy and jealousy, the prince must have forgotten, if it weren't for the emperor's grace and prince, I'm afraid that our Mu Wangfu would have ceased to exist a long time ago, so ......"

"Hehehehe...... Good one no longer exists, good one Garn! ”

Before the housekeeper's words were finished, Mu Qiubo, who was originally calm, suddenly burst out laughing, but in his voice, the infinite hatred and sadness could not be hidden!

He turned his head suddenly, stared at the butler and said: "The first king has followed him to fight on the battlefield since he was a young man, and has made great achievements.

But what about him, he knew who the first king was harmed by, but he pretended not to know, and he didn't even blame that person for this!

And ......"

Also, for so many years, has he paid a little attention to King Mu's Mansion, but has he ever thought of the King Mu who fought for him for half his life, so that he married a wife and had children in his forties?

He knew that in his eyes it was just the loss of a loyal courtier, but for the pair of orphans and widows in the deep palace, it was the fall of the heavens!

Thinking of this, Mu Qiubo's eyes couldn't help but accumulate tears......

But he held back, he knew since he was a child that tears were the most useless thing in the world, and no one would care.

His pride does not allow him to feel wronged...... He wasn't aggrieved at all!

The housekeeper watched him grow up since he was a child, and how he didn't understand what he was complaining about in his heart.

He also felt sorry for him, only he knew best how this little master, who had independently supported the entire palace since he was ten years old, came over step by step.

He is qualified to resent, he is qualified to hate!

However, he could not watch him completely lose his true nature in resentment and hatred.

So, he tried to explain: "Actually, the Emperor Taishang at that time was also helpless, since the prince Yizhong killed himself, who else can the emperor hand over to this huge country?"

He is already the only prince who can inherit the unification, so he can't blame the emperor for being ruthless, he is also for the sake of the country......"

Mu Qiubo just smiled, and suddenly said, "The only person who can inherit the unification?" I'm afraid, it's not ...... anymore."

Thinking of this, Mu Qiubo suddenly woke up and muttered, "Yes, he can't die yet...... Uncle Chai, hurry up and rescue the Qi Fu soldiers!! ”

Although the butler didn't know why his master suddenly changed his mind, he immediately said "yes", and then quickly took the horse and galloped away.

He was afraid that if it was a little later, the Emperor Taishang would really be killed, and that would not be a good thing for them Mu Wangfu!

……

"Boss, what should I do, most of the brothers have been killed and injured, and they still haven't been able to kill the old emperor......"

On the shores of Lake Chunyue, at the rear of the battlefield, one of the assassins approached the leader and shouted urgently.

If this continues, all the brothers will be accountable here!

Zhu Lan stabbed over one of the guards, pulled out the steel knife, and looked at the battlefield coldly.

He knew that many people had already given up.

He was even more convinced that the honorable royal guards on the other side had more intention of retreating!

But he didn't.

He also knew that the so-called assassination, if it didn't succeed at the beginning, it would already be half a failure!

Over time, the odds of success will become smaller and smaller......

But he didn't care!

If he can't kill the Emperor Taishang today, then use his own life to pave the way for the second prince......

It was the last thing he could do for him.

So, he yelled and said, "Brothers, we have no way out!"

The head fell off the bowl and had a big scar, and eighteen years later, he is a good man again!

For the sake of the great cause, I swear to kill the old emperor today! ”

Hearing the boss's words, many assassins who were about to collapse suddenly became fierce again!

The boss is still around!

The boss said that there is no way back!

The boss said, for the sake of the great cause...... Although I don't know what the great cause is, just hearing it, it makes people's blood surge, and they no longer fear death.

Thereupon......

"For the sake of the great cause, swear to kill the old emperor!"

"For the sake of the great cause, swear to kill the old emperor!"

“……”

Along with the slogans, the Assassins became more and more ferocious.

In the distance, the princes and ministers suddenly panicked, because they could all see that the royal guards seemed to be unable to resist......

But there are also those who are quite calm, and when they hear the tongues of the assassins shouting, they only feel a burst of cool air coming out of their hearts!

For the sake of the great cause, you want to kill the emperor?

What is the great cause?

Whose great cause needs to get rid of the emperor? Immediately, one by one, they only felt that the souls of the dead were rising......

If that is the case, the heavens of Daxuan will fall.

Do they still have a chance to live?

The Emperor Taishang naturally heard it, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Great cause? ”

He shook his head.

Amusing.

Jia Baoyu was ordered by the Emperor Taishang to stay in the middle to rest because of his leg injury.

But he still had his bow and arrows in his hand, guarding against the enemies who might rush at him.

At this time, he was also a little anxious, and hurriedly looked up into the distance.

Why haven't you come yet......

But it's useless to be anxious, in this situation, it's best to save yourself first!

He bent his bow and shot down an assassin who had broken through the defensive line, then stepped forward and said, "Emperor Yu, the guards are already in a chaotic formation, and I am afraid that they will not be able to completely block the assassin."

If the emperor can trust the ministers, please bear the emperor to cross the water! ”

Spring Moon Lake still looked very wide, he didn't believe it, these assassins were so well prepared, there was an ambush on the other side of the lake!

Crossing the water, which is just a nice way to say, is actually running for your life.

The so-called stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood.

It's embarrassing, but it can save your life!

The Emperor Taishang glanced at him and said, "You have an injury on your leg, can you move it on your back?" ”

"The minister has been in good health since he was a child."

"Hehe..."

Emperor Taishang smiled, then shook his head, "Don't be busy, when they rush over, we won't be too late to escape." ”

Jia Baoyu was speechless.

Emperor Taishang, your old man looks so wise on weekdays, why are you stupid now?

When they rush over, we may still have a chance to escape, your old man is wearing such a conspicuous armor, they must be the first to cut you!

Spit and complain, if the boss doesn't leave, he can't drag it away.

I was about to pick myself up and shoot a few more people to help the guards relieve a little pressure.

When he raised his hand, he found that Yunni, the girl, was standing beside him timidly, and when he saw him bowing his head, he immediately tugged on his sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Brother Baoyu, will we be killed?" ”

Obviously, in her short life of ten years old, today is the first time to consider the issue of life and death.

"No, it won't."

Jia Baoyu gently touched her head.

This little girl, is she finally willing to call him brother?

"Well, I believe in you, and you will protect me and my father!"

After Yun Ni listened to Jia Baoyu's words, it was as if she was suddenly full of confidence. He nodded vigorously, then turned around and took care of the King of the River.

Jia Baoyu looked at the Emperor Taishang, who had fallen into a coma, and then at the ministers who were wandering by the river.

The reason why they haven't fled so far may be because they don't know how to be watery, or maybe they are afraid that there will be enemies on the other side of the river, but more importantly, they should still be worried that if the emperor has nothing to do, they will settle accounts with them.

So, they didn't move.

At least, it's safe in the moment, isn't it?

……

Although the time between the discovery of the Assassin and the present is not too long.

But with such a big movement, there was no reaction from the outside world at all, which was also a bit abnormal.

Perhaps, someone found out, but because the assassin was too loud, he didn't dare to come......

Finally, the first loud voice sounded from the other side of the mountain forest:

"Rush...... Kill the thief and protect the holy car!! ”

……

"Great, reinforcements have arrived!!"

On the riverside, the ministers who had turned pale and jumped when they heard this sound, they jumped up one by one.

Jia Baoyu endured the pain in his leg, pulled the arrow from the corpse of an assassin in front of him, raised his head, and showed a relieved smile on his face.

It's finally here......

Perhaps it was due to the luck of the times, as soon as the voice on this side fell, several voices sounded on the other side: "Protect the Holy Driver, kill these traitors ......!" ”

These voices, like amulets, destroyed all the insistence of the Assassins.

There are not many of them left, and they don't know for a while whether to continue to fight or reflexively meet the enemy......

Of course, their enemies won't give them time to think about it.

The offensive and defensive momentum was different in an instant.

The guards, who had already fought the assassins hand-to-hand, naturally did not let go of this opportunity to kill.

"Whoa", the incessant sword entering the body and the screams......

As the fierce Assassins fell, there was only one thought in their minds:

This mission, after all, failed, and a thousand taels were lost......

……

"The ministers are too late to save the car, the sin deserves death, please forgive the emperor!"

The battle ended quickly, and several principals who came first came to the side of the emperor and others immediately after the threat was lifted, kneeling down and pleading.

After the Emperor waved his hand to get them to their feet, he did not speak to them, but watched the battlefield until he could see that the last Assassin standing had been captured.

There were several waves of people who came to the rescue, which he expected.

There are tens of thousands of forbidden troops, Jingying, Jinyiwei and Beidaying people and horses on Tiewang Mountain.

It is absolutely impossible that the battle has lasted for so long, and these people have not found a single place.

But what he didn't expect was that the first wave and the second wave just now were actually ......

Mu Qiubo saw that the emperor looked at him, and immediately bowed: "The minister hunted nearby, heard the sound of shouting and killing, and hurriedly came over to take a look, but he didn't expect that it was actually a rebel and a rebel, so he immediately rushed to the rescue!" ”

The Emperor nodded, looked at the wave of people who were still cleaning the battlefield, and was about to ask something, when he suddenly saw a group of guards pressing a person who was shrouded in tattered black robes.

"Emperor Yu, the head of the thief has been captured!!"

The shape of the detainee was truly terrifying, and the face of the detainee hiding in a black robe was completely unrecognizable, because it was completely obscured by dirty, stray hair.

Looking at the black robe on his body, it was also tattered and bright red, as if it had been soaked in water.

With just one glance, everyone knew that this person didn't know how many guards he had killed before......

There is no doubt that it is the head of the thief.

"Take off his black robe!"

The guards restrained him to prevent him from running wild.

At this time, he was ordered to uncover the robe on this person's body, only to find that he seemed to have given up his resistance.

The discerning guard knew that the Emperor wanted to see the true face of the thief, so he neatly brushed away the dirty hair.

Terrible~!

It was a scary face, so dark and wrinkled that it was almost impossible to see.

Many people just look at it and can't help but look away.

The Emperor Taishang was fine, he just frowned, and asked lightly: "Who are you, why did you assassinate me?" ”

It's a pity that the other party just looked at him, didn't answer, and let out some strange laughter, which became more and more crazy.

When the guards saw that he dared not answer the Emperor's words, they immediately greeted him with fists and kicks......

"Ahem, cough, cough~~ If you want to kill and kill, why bother asking ......"

He finally spoke, his voice hoarse.

However, there are still many people who immediately frowned: this person's voice, as if they had heard it somewhere!

Ye Qiong frowned for a long time, and suddenly said: "This person seems to be a former Zen master who protects the country......"

As soon as these words came out, several people who had seen Zhu Lan at a high enough level immediately showed a look of sudden realization and echoed in unison.

Also, just ruining his appearance, even his voice and body shape have not changed, so he is naturally easy to be recognized!

It's just that in this way, many people's minds are deep......

Who is the Protector Zen Master?

It was the royal Zen master that His Majesty had used for more than 20 years, although something happened later that he was no longer a Zen master who protected the country, but ......

The Emperor Taishang frowned, and he naturally remembered it.

Didn't the emperor's former secret guard like to wear black robes and run around in places where there was no light.

Therefore, he gave Feng Xiang a look.

Feng Xiang understood, went to the battlefield to inspect the circle and came back, nodded with the Emperor Taishang and whispered: "Back to the old emperor, it seems that it is really the style of those people......

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

Emperor Jingtai came with people on horseback, and when he saw the wreckage all over the ground, his expression was very heavy.

Quickly dismounted, walked in front of the emperor, and asked: "The son's mishandling caused his father to be frightened, please ask my father to surrender!" ”

He was responsible for the autumn hunting, and now that there is such a mistake, he will naturally be unable to escape the blame.

However, even if this is the case, it is just a negligence, and the next thing is to investigate and investigate, and to sit together......

Why, everyone looked at him with strange expressions.

Besides, although he is a son, he is also an emperor, and the emperor will not let him kneel all the time......

It's just that he is a person with a city government, and the emperor does not speak, so he does not move.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Father."

"Do you know this person?"

Emperor Jingtai followed everyone's gaze and naturally saw Zhu Lan who was being held by the guards.

Perhaps because he had followed him for too long, Emperor Jingtai recognized him almost at first sight.

So, his pupils shrank suddenly......
