The tiger returned to the mountain, the dragon entered the sea, and An Yeguo has become a game of chess since then, and the first chess piece picked up by the chess player is Cang'an Villa, the lord of martial arts.

“… So that's how it was... Court infighting... The prince seizes the throne... but tens of thousands of innocent people will be killed..."

"Xin'er."

Just when everyone didn't know how to comfort Xiao Xinyi, Zhuge Qinghong broke in. At a glance, he saw Xiao Xinyi huddled in the corner, and quickly walked to her side and hugged her into his arms.

"It's okay Xin'er, I'm here, don't think about the past, now I'm by your side, you still have me, I will accompany you."

Xiao Xinyi raised her head when she heard Zhuge Qinghong's voice, she had calmed down at this time, but her black and white eyes were covered with blood, and there was a tooth mark on her lips, which was bursting with a trace of scarlet.

"Ah Yin, the world is ruthless, and the dramatist is unrighteous, how is it compared to the heavenly nobles who are worshiped by the people above this temple."

"Xin'er, I'll take you out of here."

"The person who gave you the portrait is not the Falling Moon King, the prince of the East Palace back then."

"Yes."

"I want to see Jiang Yunkai."

Xiao Xinyi stretched out his hand to stop Zhuge Qinghong, who was about to pick her up, and stood up by himself.

"Okay, I'll take you."

"I'll go with you." Leng Moyan stopped the two who were about to walk out.

"Mo Yan, it's my own business." After Xiao Xinyi finished speaking, he walked straight out of Leng Moyan.

At this time, there was no more tension on the street, and the soldiers patrolling the street were not only people from the Nine Kings Mansion but also the Moon Army. Jiang Yunkai lived in the courtyard next to the Nine Kings' Mansion.

Xiao Xinyi walked to Jiang Yunkai's side without saying a word, and the anger in his heart turned into a sound of breaking the air whistling out of the cloud whip, and Jiang Yunkai's clothes were torn with a whip, and the blood instantly stained his back red, and he knelt in the main hall without saying a word, and in front of him were several rows that were already a little worn.

Flowers are sleepless...

Jiang Jingquan...

Flower rhyme...

Xiao Chonglou...

Jiang Wanyun...

"This whip was drawn for my mother."

The whisk whip roared out again, and there was another blood mark on Jiang Yunkai's back.

"This whip was drawn on behalf of my father."

"This whip is for the two thousand souls of my Cang'an Villa."

"This whip is for my Xiao family's three hundred dependents."

"This whip is a burden for my master's years of enduring humiliation."

"This whip is for the martial arts heroes who were driven to die by the Five Lakes Order."

A thrush fell from the peach tree that popped up in the courtyard, and the branch was frightened into the distance by the crisp sound of the bell in the hall. The whip fell, and Xiao Xinyi knelt down in front of the tablet.

Zhuge Qinghong walked up to Jiang Yunkai and stuffed a pill in his mouth, took out the hemostatic medicine he had with him and sprinkled it on his wound.

"Thank you." Jiang Yunkai's voice was hoarse.

Zhuge Qinghong didn't answer, walked to Xiao Xinyi's side and helped her out of Jiang Yunkai's yard. Xiao Xinyi was taken by Zhuge Qinghong in a daze, and the few whips just now used up the strength of her whole body. There was also a buzzing in her head, and it wasn't until Zhuge Qinghong pressed her to the couch and sat down that she regained a trace of clarity in her eyes.

"Presumably you haven't rested well in the past few days, this is my room and no one will disturb you, you can sleep, there is something to wait for you to wake up."

Xiao Xinyi nodded, obediently lying on the couch and closing her eyes, she didn't want to say anything at this moment, she just hoped that she wouldn't wake up.

"Xin'er, Xin'er."

In the dream, the shadows of Xiao Chonglou and Jiang Wanyun became more and more blurred, Xiao Xinyi reached out and grabbed it with both hands, her hands were warm in a panic, she suddenly opened her eyes, and before her mother could say anything, she saw Zhuge Qinghong looking at her worriedly.

"Xin'er, you're dreaming."

The tears in the corners of his eyes were swept away by Zhuge Qinghong, as soft as a feather. Xiao Xinyi didn't answer, let go of Zhuge Qinghong's hand and looked out the window, it was pitch black.

"Is it already dark?"

"It's almost time."

Zhuge Qinghong helped Xiao Xinyi to lean on the soft pillow and served a bowl of porridge from the small table. He handed a white porcelain spoon containing soft glutinous fragrant rice to Xiao Xinyi's lips.

Xiao Xinyi's face instantly turned crimson. But seeing Zhuge Qinghong's faintly expectant eyes, she still slightly opened her lips and ate a bowl of porridge.

A satisfied smile appeared on Zhuge Qinghong's face, and he took out a brocade to help Xiao Xinyi wipe the corners of his lips.

"Ah Yin, send me back."

"I have told my father, and my father has an edict from the King of the Falling Moon to temporarily leave you in my custody."

"Is the Falling Moon King really the crown prince?"

"Yes."

"Since he is the crown prince, why didn't he come directly to the Nine Princes to help him correct his name, and he had to go to such great lengths to raise an army to rebel."

"Xin'er, the reason why the Nine Princes are willing to admit his identity as the crown prince is because he now has enough strength to make the Nine Princes admit it, if he came to the Nine Princes rashly ten years ago without soldiers and no right in his hands, do you think the Nine Princes will help him correct his name and be the emperor's enemy, or will he take him down and hand him over to the emperor for disposal."

Xiao Xinyi was silent, if this was the case, no matter whether Gu Yi was public or private, he would not help Gu Anyi. For the public, Gu Anle has been on the throne for several years, and the court has long been stable inside and outside, and the important ministers in the court are all his confidants, and Gu Anle will not willingly give way. If he wanted to regain the throne, Gu Anyi could only raise troops to rebel, and Gu Yi, as a relative of the emperor, naturally didn't want to see the scene of his brothers turning against each other.

For personal gain, both of them are his nephews, and Gu Anle treats him well, which of the two is the emperor is not much different to him, and if he succeeds in seizing the throne, his status will not be more than now. If he fails and dies not only him, his vein will be destroyed because of one of his decisions.

Now that he is willing to help Gu Anyi, he knows that the overall situation has been decided, and he is just pushing the boat down the river to save a lot of trouble for Gu Anyi to return to the court.

"Ah Yin, let me go, the master is still in the palace, I have to go to him."

"Even if I let you go, you won't be able to see Master Simamen, now that the imperial city is under martial law, don't say that you can't enter the palace, even if you go in, the emperor will detain you, and now he looks at everyone like a spy."

"Master, will he be in danger?" Xiao Xinyi panicked.

"No, the master of Sima Sect is strong in martial arts, and the emperor will not do anything to him." Zhuge Qinghong hesitated when he said this, and he was not at all sure as usual.

Xiao Xinyi didn't speak, and when the two were looking at each other without saying a word, they only heard someone outside say: "General, the Falling Moon King invites you to go to Wenyuan to discuss something." ”

"Got it." Zhuge Qinghong got up and tucked the corner of the quilt for Xiao Xinyi: "I'll go back when I go." ”

"Okay." Xiao Xinyi watched Zhuge Qinghong walk out of the door, looked at the charcoal fire dancing in the brazier, and fell asleep again. In the fog, he heard many people hurrying by, and the bright lights in the courtyard were everywhere, Xiao Xinyi was shocked, and he didn't care about putting on his shoes and hurriedly opened the door to see, it turned out that the Nine Kings' Mansion was lit up with countless torches, and the sound of uniform footsteps and armor colliding was sonorous and powerful in the dark night.

"Why did you come out without shoes?" Zhuge Qinghong didn't wait for her to answer, picked her up horizontally and put her on the couch.

"Something happened out there."

"The emperor ordered Li Ze to lead his troops back to the city to support, and the King of the Falling Moon has ordered someone to take Li Yu to intercept him halfway, and we have to capture the imperial city as soon as possible."

"Uncle Shi and Mo Yan." Xiao Xinyi quickly put on his shoes and stood up.

"They insisted on not surrendering, and they have been transferred to the government prison by the Nine Princes."

Xiao Xinyi's face changed and he was about to run out, but he was dragged by Zhuge Qinghong: "The prison is heavily guarded, you can't save them." ”

"Then what do you want me to do, my master is still in the palace." Xiao Xinyi shook off Zhuge Qinghong and dragged her hand, so anxious that her eyes were red.

"Master Sima is fine, the emperor still uses him, and he still respects him."

"How do you know?"

"Do you remember the eunuch who sent Li Yu to the Double Holy Gate?"

Xiao Xinyi shook her head, she only remembered that there were a few people behind Li Yu that day, but she didn't look closely.

"That person is also a person from the Falling Moon King, and the news he sent back mentions the Sima Sect Master, and the emperor has great respect for him, so you don't have to worry."

"That's true."

"When did I lie to you."

Xiao Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not that I don't believe you, but I just care about it." ”

"I understand your feelings."

"What about me, what is the Moon King going to do with me."

"As long as you want, you can follow me, no matter what, you are the descendant of General Hua, and the Falling Moon King will not embarrass you."

"I'll follow you, you take me to the Imperial City." If the imperial city was really breached by the Falling Moon Army, she could go to the palace to find Sima Zhengqing as soon as possible.

"Okay, I'll take care of you." Zhuge Qinghong took her hand and put it on her chest.

The distance between the imperial city and Yancheng is only five days, and the Luoyue army came to the foot of the imperial city in less than five days, and the vanguard army found a water source and set up camp, Zhuge Qinghong took several lieutenants to quietly sneak into a forest in the distance to inquire about the situation of the imperial city. Xiao Xinyi looked at the tall and majestic city gate in front of him and was in a trance for a moment, Xiao Chonglou died here.

Ten years have passed, and the mess left by the war has long been drifted away with the wind, and the blood of tens of thousands of people flowing here has been buried under the yellow sand, and everything that happened back then can no longer be traced at the foot of this imperial city. Ten years later, the same scene played out at the foot of the imperial city.

is different from the anti-thieves ten years ago, the person standing at the front of the team now is the prince, who is upright and upright to take back the country that belongs to him.

Zhuge Qinghong noticed her strangeness and leaned towards her without a trace.

"Zhuge Yin, this imperial city is not easy to attack." Hua Rujiang looked into the distance with his hand on the side.

Due to geographical reasons, the Imperial Castle did not have a moat, but it was the only castle with an urn castle (Note 1) in Anye Fortress County. There are more than 20,000 guards in the city, which is twice as much as Yancheng.

"How to attack the city is the business of the Falling Moon King and the Nine Princes, you and I just need to do what you are told." Zhuge Qinghong said lightly, taking Xiao Xinyi's hand and walking out of the woods.

The group mounted their horses and headed towards the camp. In the distance, there were many soldiers on the imperial city, and there were several dark shadows in the shadows of the towers, as if the shadows of the pillars of the corridor merged with the surrounding buildings, lifeless and lifeless.

Note 1: An enclosed building like an urn to protect the city gates.
