"Well, with your words, even if the husband dies, he has no regrets!" After speaking, Xiao Jingcong gently hugged Yan Zixi into his arms.

Yan Zixi snuggled in Xiao Jingcong's arms, stretched out her fingers to cover Xiao Jingcong's mouth, "Jingcong, don't talk nonsense, you'll be fine." We have all experienced such a big crisis in Cloud City, what else can we not get over? ”

"Xi'er, you don't understand, the situation in the capital may be even more complicated than now, I'm afraid that this time I will return to Beijing, and my husband will die for life!"

"No, no matter how arrogant Xiao Yuxian is, he can't blatantly kill a dignified Xiao Wang, right? Don't say that you just won the battle, isn't this a killing of heroes? I think even the second prince Xiao Yuxian can't afford such a crime, right? Yan Zixi tried to say what was in his heart.

Xiao Jingcong shook his head, sneered, and replied lightly: "Xi'er, you won't understand, power can make people crazy." Xiao Yuxian is the kind of person who will do anything to achieve his goals, but I'm afraid that the capital has been controlled by him now......"

Hearing this, Yan Zixi couldn't help frowning, and persuaded her: "Jingcong, since this is the case, do you still want to go back to Beijing?" Isn't this a sheep in the mouth of a tiger and killing itself? ”

"Hmph, it's not necessarily who is a sheep and who is a tiger!" Xiao Jingcong chuckled lightly and looked up to the sky and sighed, like a white rainbow running through the sun......

……

On the tenth day of August in the twenty-seventh year of the Great Xiao calendar, Xiao Jingcong led the army from Yuncheng and returned to the dynasty in triumph.

On the way back to Beijing, they were greeted all the way, but after really stepping into the realm of the capital, Yan Zixi found that the atmosphere in the capital had become solemn, completely different from before they left, and there seemed to be a smell of blood in the air.

At this moment, Xiao Jingcong only brought Bai Qian and Mo Yun's two personal guards, and more than 100 cavalry under his command into Beijing together, and Li Hui and Sun Li all stayed outside the capital to standby.

The streets of the capital are also much bleaker, and the people who originally set up stalls are almost nowhere to be seen. A few pedestrians on the road saw Xiao Jingcong coming, as if they had seen a plague god, and they were so frightened that they ran away.

"Jingcong, what the hell is going on? Why did those passers-by run away in fright when they saw us as if they had seen ghosts? Are we so terrible? ”

Xiao Jingcong smiled coldly and responded lightly: "It seems that we are coming back late, but I am afraid that the second emperor brother Xiao Yuxian has already succeeded, right?" Speaking of this, Xiao Jingcong's complexion changed, and then he instructed Bai Qian and Mo Yun behind him: "Bai Qian, you quickly take Princess Xiao out of the city, Mo Yun, you enter the palace with me." ”

"Yes!" Bai Qian and Mo Yun each gave their hands in response.

When Yan Zixi heard that she was going to be separated from Xiao Jingcong, she was not happy, "Jingcong, didn't we say that no matter what happens, the two of us will not be separated?" Why, why, are you leaving me alone again? Yan Zixi's eyes turned red as she spoke, and she looked at Xiao Jingcong with teary eyes and cried.

Xiao Jingcong smiled bitterly, turned around and replied: "Xi'er, it is very dangerous to go to the palace here, then Xiao Yuxian may have already set up a net waiting for her husband, how can your husband let you take risks!" Be obedient, hurry up and wait for me with General Bai Qian, and promise you for my husband that I will definitely see you safely! ”

Saying that, Xiao Jingcong gave a death order to Bai Qian, "Bai Qian, this king ordered you to protect Princess Xiao to the death, no matter what happens, your first priority is to protect Princess Xiao!" ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey!" Bai Qian hugged his fists, responded respectfully, and then escorted Yan Zixi to turn his horse's head and go out of the city.

"Jing Cong...... Jing Cong ...... "No matter how Yan Zixi cried, Bai Qian left the capital with Yan Zixi as if he didn't hear it. chamberlain

After sending Yan Zixi away, Xiao Jingcong relieved her mind a little, as long as Yan Zixi was fine, it would be fine, even if she really died here today, it would be fine.

Xiao Jingcong, who had made up his mind, immediately slapped the horse's back, went straight to the palace, and came to the palace gate, where the guards stopped Xiao Jingcong.

Xiao Jingcong got off the horse, glanced at the guards, and found that these guards were all unfamiliar faces, it seems that Xiao Yuxian has really acted, and this court is afraid that the sky has changed.

Mo Yun stepped forward and wanted to remind him, but before he could speak, he was stopped by Xiao Jingcong.

"Mo Yun, you have followed me for many years, you should also know the temperament of this king, you don't need to persuade me, even if it is a net of heaven and earth, this king has to break through."

"Yes, Lord Wang, your subordinates should live and die together with the Lord Wang, advance and retreat together!" Mo Yun gritted his teeth and replied with a serious face.

Xiao Jingcong nodded, and even though he wanted to enter the palace with Mo Yun and more than a hundred knights behind him, he was stopped by the guards.

"Lord Xiao, did you bring so many people into the palace with the intention of rebellion?"

Xiao Jingcong had a calm face and snorted coldly: "This king is loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and he has no two hearts!" ”

"Then let's ask the prince to only bring his cronies into the palace! The others were waiting outside the palace. The guard smiled and said, pausing for a moment, and then continued: "Oh, by the way, my lord, please untie the blade in your hand, right?" ”

"Presumptuous!"

Before the guard's words were finished, Mo Yun couldn't stand it anymore, and scolded angrily: "You dog slave, are you blind?" This is the peerless general Xiao Jingcong Xiao Wangye, he has the power to go to court with a sword, why do you let the prince untie his sword? ”

"Oh, this is the emperor's new decree, those who enter the palace to face the sage, up to the prince and princess, down to the civil and military officials, no matter who they are, they are not allowed to wear a sword to enter the court, even Prince Xiao is no exception, violators will be killed! Please also ask Prince Xiao not to embarrass the small ones, the small ones are just acting according to orders. The guards carried the holy decree out, and Mo Yun didn't know what to do for a while, so he could only look at Xiao Jingcong and ask for his opinion.

Xiao Jingcong hesitated for a moment, and when he untied the red-faced sword on his waist, Mo Yun and the other soldiers who were about to enter the palace saw that Xiao Jingcong had unsheathed the sword, and they had no choice but to disarm their weapons and blades.

Seeing this, the guards nodded with satisfaction, and then made way for them, "Lord Wang, please!" "The flattery is disgusting.

Xiao Jingcong didn't bother to look at the dog minion, and led Mo Yun and more than a dozen cronies into the palace together.

The once prosperous court seems to have become much deserted today, from the palace gate to the main hall, there is hardly a single eunuch and maid on the way.

Xiao Jingcong felt more and more strange, where did these people go.

Just as Xiao Jingcong was about to step into the noon gate, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army suddenly ran out of the palace on both sides with a group of Royal Forest Army, and surrounded Xiao Jingcong and a group of more than ten people.

Xiao Jingcong recognized the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, and asked in a cold voice: "Chen Dutong, what do you mean by this?" ”
