The tent had been engulfed in flames, and the light of the flames made the spears and broadswords of the surrounding Yulin soldiers even colder.

Xuanyuan Po roared and rushed towards Chi Fengdian, but Chi Fengdian raised his hand unhurriedly and pressed down suddenly, and more than a dozen pikemen actually threw the spears in their hands at Xuanyuan Po.

Xuanyuan Po was pierced through the body by a big knife, his heart was pierced, and there was no reason to live, and in the end, this Bo was the end of a strong crossbow in despair, the spear was thrown, full of strength, and the sound of the blade sinking into the flesh seemed to be clearly audible, and several spears had been fiercely pierced into Xuanyuan Po's body.

Blood burst out, and Xuanyuan's momentum came to an abrupt end.

Chi Fengdian stared at Xuanyuan Po coldly, but Qu Xiaocang and the others all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Xuanyuan Po.

Qi Ning's hands and feet were cold.

It wasn't because of fear, but it was like a nightmare in front of him, completely unexpected, and in his mind, such a scene was almost impossible, but he really felt that it was completely true.

The little emperor wants to kill himself?

Why?

Xuanyuan Po, as the only descendant of Ximen Wuxi, is the successor of the Shenhou Mansion, and has made countless contributions to the imperial court over the years, but the Yulin soldiers have no scruples to kill him, and the others in the Shenhou Mansion are even accomplices.

Qi Ning knew that this could never be Chi Fengdian's personal intention, nor would it be Qu Xiaocang's decision made without authorization.

Shenhou Mansion and Yulin Camp are two independent systems, and there is almost no staggering between the two sides, but now these two forces have joined forces extremely tacitly and killed Xuanyuan Po by surprise, all of which is of course premeditated, but I am afraid that even how to make a move has been carefully designed in advance.

To be able to make these two forces join forces so firmly and ruthlessly kill Xuanyuan Po, only the emperor has this ability in the whole world.

Xuanyuan Po was stabbed in the body by several spears, he couldn't hold it anymore, he fell to the ground on one knee, his face was both sad and angry, and more puzzled, he really didn't understand why he suddenly became a traitor and traitor after following the little grandfather who had just made a huge contribution to Da Chu? Why did his most trusted second junior brother attack and kill him so ruthlessly?

He tilted his head slightly, looking at the dark sky, his eyes gradually drifting until he no longer had the slightest look.

The tent behind Qi Ning had collapsed in the flames and became a raging fire, and many of the feather forest soldiers around him were still holding torches in their hands.

Soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, and these Yulin elite soldiers have undergone rigorous training, for them, Chi Fengdian's every word is naturally a golden rule, as long as Chi Fengdian has a military order, they don't care who the person to kill is, even if it is the duke of the empire, they have no scruples in their eyes.

Chi Fengdian took two steps forward and said lightly: "Protector of the country, there is still a will here, don't kneel down to accept the decree!" As he spoke, he had already taken out a holy decree, his eyes were like knives, staring at Qi Ning.

Qi Ning glanced at Xuanyuan Po, and saw that Xuanyuan Po still maintained a kneeling posture, looking up at the sky, but the whole person was motionless, knowing that the senior brother of the Shenhou Mansion who had been born and died with him since Xichuan had been killed, his eyes moved to Chi Fengdian, and he didn't speak, but the whole person looked calm and terrifying.

Chi Fengdian sneered, opened the holy decree, and preached: "The emperor's edict said: Qi Ning, the protector of the country, colluded with foreign countries, turned his back on his country, and his disobedience is self-evident. Only then did he throw the holy decree to Qi Ning, and said: "Qi Ning, your title has been stripped away, and now it is a key offense of the imperial court, and it is also the rebellion of my Great Chu Empire. ”

Qi Ning didn't look at the holy decree, but just took a deep breath, and then asked, "Qu Xiaocang, how is the Holy Lord now?" ”

Qu Xiaocang groaned slightly, and finally said: "The emperor has the blessing of heaven, and naturally the dragon body is healthy." ”

"So, you told me that the Holy Dragon was in bad health, but you deceived me?" Qi Ning still said indifferently.

Qu Xiaocang said: "Although you have a big sin, the Holy Lord doesn't want to let this matter be publicized and made known to everyone. The Holy Providence ordered us to proclaim this holy decree again on the way back to Beijing. ”

"Oh?" The corners of Qi Ning's lips smiled: "In this way, you deceived me to lure me out of Huize City, do you know that if I know that the dragon body is sick, I will definitely return to Beijing in a hurry?" He glanced up at the dark night, and said lightly: "There is no shop in front of the village here, it is a good place to kill people quietly, it seems that you have made arrangements in advance." ”

Qu Xiaocang said: "Protect the country..... Qi Ning, the will of the Holy Lord, we naturally cannot disobey it. ”

Chi Fengdian had already said coldly: "Qi Ning, the emperor has an order to make you commit suicide, whether to kill yourself or take poison to commit suicide, you can choose for yourself." He took a porcelain bottle in his hand and threw it at Qi Ning's feet: "This is a gift from the emperor, after being convinced, you can ascend to heaven immediately without too much pain." ”

Qi Ning looked down at the small porcelain bottle, and with a toe pick, the porcelain bottle flew up, Qi Ning grabbed it in his hand, and said with a faint smile: "This is a holy gift?" ”

Chi Fengdian bowed his head and said: "Actually, this is your best choice." The emperor has decreed that if you can make a decision on your own, the court will cover up the treason for you, and even the Jinyi Houfu can be preserved, your family will not be implicated in any way, and the court will still guarantee their wealth. ”

"Oh? What if I resist it? ”

"Why do you do that?" Chi Fengdian sighed: "Qi Ning, aside from the emperor's will, I have some friendship with you, if it were me, I would definitely obey the will." I know you're good at martial arts, but there are three hundred feather forests here, and there are a few masters in the Shenhou Mansion, so we really don't want to really do it ourselves. After a slight pause, he said: "And if you follow the order, the emperor may really be able to open the net and no longer implicate the Jinyi Qi family, but if you resist to the end, the Jinyi Qi family is afraid that it will not be able to be saved." Once the Jinyi Qi family is punished, countless people will die, so why should you let them be martyred for you? ”

Qi Ning smiled: "You mean that if I don't commit suicide in front of you, the court will take the brocade clothes Qi family to open the knife?" ”

Chi Fengdian said: "Treason and disobedience, put it on anyone else, it is an unforgivable sin." The saint is benevolent and gives you a chance to protect the Qi family, if you don't cherish it, then you can't blame anyone. ”

Qi Ning lowered his head and muttered for a long time, Chi Fengdian and Qu Xiaocang glanced at each other, only thinking that Qi Ning was moving, and after a long time, he saw Qi Ning raise his head and sighed: "My temper has never been very good, but I am a very reasonable person." The elite soldiers of the Feather Forest are all warriors of the Empire, and each one is worth cherishing, but it is a pity that some people want to let them come and die in vain. I've never killed people easily, but I've never let anyone who wants to do anything to me, and I'm never going to let him live. He turned his head slightly to look at Qu Xiaocang, and asked lightly, "How is Zhan Ying now?" ”

Qu Xiaocang said: "If you follow the order, the Shenhou Mansion can ensure that the little junior sister is safe and sound." ”

"Just now, you assassinated Xuanyuan Po, and you were ruthless." Qi Ning sighed: "Qu Xiaocang, I have always thought that you are a generous person, but also a person who takes care of the overall situation, you and Xuanyuan Po have been brothers for many years, and they can be said to be brothers and sisters, I really don't understand, how can you get this hand?" ”

The corners of Qu Xiaocang's eyes twitched slightly, but he still said: "The emperor's order is difficult to disobey!" ”

"That's a good statement." Qi Ning smiled slightly: "Can you ask yourself, you assassinated Xuanyuan Po completely for the so-called will?" In the Shenhou Mansion, you are considered a thoughtful person, act carefully, this time Xuanyuan Po and I were detained with the big hat of treason, do you also believe it? Xuanyuan Po is the heir of the Shenhou, as long as he is there, no matter how much credit you make, you can only succumb to him after all, you ask yourself if it is because you also fancy the position of the Shenhou, so you are so vicious? ”

Qu Xiaocang sighed: "If you insist on thinking like this, I can't help it." ”

"Xuanyuan Po lives and dies with me, I have always been a righteous person, I regard him as a friend, but you actually assassinated him in front of me, what do you think will happen to you?" Qi Ning's voice was very calm, and his face was not shocked, but when Qu Xiaocang heard it in his ears, he felt a chill in his back.

"Chi Fengdian, these Yulin elite soldiers are all your brothers, I don't know if you love soldiers like sons, but I hope you understand that letting them do it can only be sent to death in vain." Qi Ning said: "I now have a way that can make you not need to shed too much blood. He glanced at Qu Xiaocang and said, "Qu Xiaocang, there is poison here, it is a gift from the emperor, after you take it, you don't have to suffer too much." There are also a few people who just threw guns, Chi Fengdian, you cut off their heads with your own hands, so I haven't seen you today. ”

He seemed to be saying something natural, and threw the porcelain bottle in his hand at Qu Xiaocang's feet.

At this moment, he was besieged by heavy troops, but when he spoke, it seemed that these people were controlled by him.

Chi Fengdian shook his head, took a few steps back, waved his hand, and more than a dozen crossbowmen stepped forward in unison, picked up the bow and crossbow in their hands, and aimed at Qi Ning, only to hear Chi Fengdian say coldly: "The traitor and traitor Qi Ning, if you don't want to repent, you don't obey the order, and you won't be forgiven!" ”

Qi Ning closed his eyes and shook his head, and heard Chi Fengdian shout coldly: "Release the arrow!" ”

More than ten bows and crossbows pulled the mechanism at the same time, and the crossbow arrows roared out and shot straight towards Qi Ning, but Qi Ning did not dodge, but raised his arms slightly, and said coldly: "Those who offend me will be killed!" ”

More than ten crossbow arrows arrived as soon as they were spoken, and they were close at hand, but they heard Qi Ning shouting, his body leaned back, and the whole person shook like a phantom, more than ten crossbow arrows actually grazed his body, and none of them were shot, and he heard Chi Fengdian say sharply: "There is a decree in the saint, those who take the head of Qi Ning will be promoted to three levels in a row, and the bounty will be a thousand taels!" ”

There was a burst of shouts all around, and countless Yulin elite soldiers were already holding guns and knives, rushing towards Qi Ning from all directions.
