Chapter 471: The Wind Passes Without a Trace (Part II)
"The commander is not here, so are we so rashly chasing?" It was Shi Gong Zhengyuan who was asking, and if there was anyone else who had preserved the most basic sanity along the way, it was probably only him. Shi Gong Zhengyuan looked at Xuan Shaoning who was stubbornly moving in one direction, and couldn't help but feel anxious, Xuan Shaoning's series of performances since entering the capital were very different from his ordinary.
"This is what Yun Xuan said, they must not have been away for too long, we still have time to pursue now!"
"Shaoning!" Shi Gong Zhengyuan grabbed Xuan Shaoning's arm, "This is war, you know!" We are acting on our own initiative, and we will be dealt with according to military law! ”
"Where can I manage so much at this time? The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, and if we had always followed the script, our lives would have been lost! ”
"You haven't forgotten Princess Yunxuan, have you? Even if you know that you are destined to be inseparable from her, even if she is already Yan Keran's wife, you still haven't completely let go! ”
"When did you come to talk to me about these things?"
"Then let me ask you, the child in your arms is Princess Yunxuan's child, how did you save it? Rouge has always been by your side, why is she nowhere to be seen now? Princess Yunxuan was obviously in a trance, but what she said was so convinced? ”
The softest and most fragile position in Xuan Shaoning's heart was torn apart and kneaded by Shi Gong Zhengyuan, and there was an uncomfortable feeling of being caught doing something bad. Xuan Shaoning's eyes were red, he struggled to break free, and then said word by word: "You said that now is a critical moment in the war, as long as we are still alive, we will have time to talk about it slowly in the future!" I'm going to go after you, if you're worried about military justice, you can stay where you are and wait for the commander!" ”
In Shi Gong Zhengyuan's memory, Xuan Shaoning was the first time he completely lost his mind, and it was the first time that he couldn't listen to the advice of others at all.
The dragon robe used to be a symbol of supreme imperial power, how many people didn't dare to look at each other at all, how many people coveted it but couldn't get it, how many people got it and lost it, at this time for Emperor Xiao Yunsheng of Liang, the dragon robe was an obstacle that limited him to run faster, as the sweat wet the placket, he remembered that he had never been so embarrassed as he was now for more than 30 years, he became an emperor from a prince, and everyone had to obey his will. Really? Maybe it used to be, but now it must not be, Xiao Yunsheng can clearly hear the footsteps behind him, he understands that his fourth brother's will is mixed in the military camp, and his physical strength is far beyond his own, if he wants to survive, he can only run faster.
In fact, it was not only Xiao Yunqi and Pei Zhenghao who were chasing behind Xiao Yunsheng, but also Huangfu You, who was tricked by Xiao Yunqi, and he had to seize the time to recapture Emperor Liang back into his hands, so that he could have a chance of winning.
Xiao Yunqi's ears moved and he noticed that Huangfu You was following behind him, just when he tilted his head to take a look at the other party's position, a golden light flashed, and his body subconsciously rushed forward, and at the moment when his body fell, he felt a strong wind passing through his back. It's a cloud-piercing arrow! When Xiao Yunqi looked up and looked forward again, a feather arrow broke through the air, and after hitting the palace wall, it turned a corner and disappeared at the fork in the road.
The Cloud Piercing Arrow really lives up to its name! After Xiao Yunqi got up, he glanced at Pei Zhenghao behind him, and he continued to speed up his pace to pursue, while Pei Zhenghao turned around on the spot and threw three flying knives in the direction that Huangfu had come from. The change between the lightning and flint, no matter how fast others reacted, they couldn't dodge the three flying knives, Huangfu You did it, he held the bow horizontally, used the bowstring to hang the flying knife, and then returned the flying knife to Pei Zhenghao with a swing of his arm.
One was kicked away, one was dodged, and the last one was bitten by Pei Zhenghao, and his body couldn't help but lean back the moment he landed, if it weren't for his desperate insistence, he was afraid that he would fall on his back at this time, in that case, he would have to worry about his life, and Huangfu You's skills in front of him would never allow him to make a mistake.
"So polite, you gave me back what you gave you?"
"If you dare to stand in the way, I won't ask for your things, but I will accept your life."
"Oh? The tone is still so big! I've learned your cloud-piercing arrow, and I want to know what other skills you have, otherwise why would you become a descendant of the Huangfu family! ”
Huangfu You's face sank, he watched Xiao Yunqi disappear at the intersection, and he had to solve the troublesome matter in front of him first, but where was Pei Zhenghao so easy to deal with?
Exhale, exhale, or exhale, Xiao Yunsheng is about to suffocate, he almost only has the breath he exhales and no breath inhaled, the soreness and numbness of his whole body have made him unable to lift his legs, and he feels that there is a fish on the shore jumping alive in his chest, even if he runs one more step, he feels that he is going to die here.
Why is there no sound behind me? Did they not continue the pursuit, or did something stop them? Xiao Yunsheng wanted to look back, but before his head was turned into place, he was pushed hard and fell directly to the ground, and he looked up and saw that the person who attacked him was Xiao Yunqi.
The dignified emperor actually fell into the dust at this moment but was unable to get up, Xiao Yunsheng felt extremely guilty, and looked at Xiao Yunqi not far away with murderous eyes.
"Don't look at me like that, I saved your life!" Following Xiao Yunqi's fingers, Xiao Yunsheng saw a crossbow arrow plunging into the body of a tree, because the force was too great, the crossbow arrow was still swaying at this time, if the crossbow arrow was directly inserted into the body, I was afraid that it would be able to penetrate.
"You're going to be so kind to save me? I don't know what you're thinking? From childhood to adulthood, where will you be my opponent? Xiao Yunsheng struggled to support himself to get up, and even if he was dying, he had to maintain the dignity of the emperor.
"Do you know why you lost? It's because you always pride yourself on being smart, you always think that you are the smartest of the brothers, just like when you calculated the crown prince, the seventh brother and even your father, you thought that everything was under your control. ”
"You?"
"Surprised, isn't it? You didn't expect that I knew all these secret things? How did you use my wedding night to set fire to the East Palace? How did you get your seventh brother to rebel and then be defeated and die? How did you kill two birds with one stone and poison your father and then blame me? I know all of this! ”
Xiao Yunsheng's body began to tremble slightly, he suddenly found that he couldn't see his fourth brother clearly, in his memory, this fourth brother was a scheming, honest military idiot, the only thing he could do was military merit, but was it really so? When he told everything one by one, Xiao Yunsheng was at a loss, and he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly.
"You pretended to be everything?" Xiao Yunsheng was in a trance, and then immediately refuted his conjecture, "Impossible!" How can a person pretend to be so big from a young age, more than 30 years, can you pretend to be more than 30 years? ”
"Why not? This is where you think you are right, can you control everything in the world? I've been waiting, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a chance to bring you all down at once, and finally this opportunity has come! ”
Xiao Yunqi's appearance has become blurred in Xiao Yunsheng's eyes, and the previous image of an honest man began to gradually dissipate, replaced by the appearance of a cunning and ruthless old fox, especially when he laughed!
Really? I'm afraid yes! Xiao Yunqi was really laughing, he didn't smile obviously, the corners of his mouth just showed a shallow smile, he seemed to be the final victor at this time, approaching Xiao Yunsheng step by step, every step he took made Xiao Yunsheng feel that his life had passed a minute, until she was completely paralyzed to the ground, staring at Xiao Yunqi with fear and dementia in her eyes.
"Fourth brother...... Fourth brother? ”
"Now you think of calling the fourth brother? It's a pity, it's too late, fifth brother, I used to really treat you as my younger brother, but it's a pity that you missed every opportunity I gave you, and now it's irretrievable. Xiao Yunqi said softly, his hand slowly drew out the sword, the strange tip of the sword that was pitch black was a square sword, and he vaguely remembered that this sword was called "Mo Du".
"Even if you kill me, you won't get the world of the Great Liang! The civil strife has not been extinguished, the foreign enemy has invaded, and only by using me, the emperor, can you command the Quartet army, you still need me! Fourth brother, if you want the throne, I can give it to you, and when all this subsides, I will take the initiative to give in! ”
"Shouldn't I have used 'I' to call myself? You are the emperor of Daliang, and the throne that you have so painstakingly usurped has just been given away? Fifth brother, I can't know what kind of person you are! The trick of procrastination is useless in my place, I don't need your status as an emperor to help me do things, whether it is internal troubles or external enemies, I have enough confidence to settle down, and the only person who can really bring peace and contentment to the people of Daliang is me! ”
As he spoke, Mo Du had already stabbed Xiao Yunsheng's throat, "Fourth brother! After all, I am your younger brother, if you kill me, not only to kill the king, but also to kill my brother, do you think that no one will really know all this? Everything you have will be recorded in the history books for posterity to scold! ”
"Is Tang Taizong Li Shimin afraid? Are you scared of any more failures? What you do is much more vicious than me, and you are not afraid that I have anything to fear? There will be today that everything is your own doing! ”
"Fourth brother!"
"General!" Xuan Shaoning wanted to shout, but was finally covered by Shi Gong Zhengyuan and hugged him tightly at the same time, the two of them have been hiding in the dark, and it is absolutely not suitable to show up at this time.
Xuan Shaoning couldn't break free for a while, so he watched Xiao Yunqi stab his sword into Xiao Yunsheng's throat, and then brought up a blood-colored neon. Xiao Yunsheng's body finally stopped moving after pulling out for a while, Xuan Shaoning seemed to feel that Xiao Yunsheng's eyes had been looking at him, as if he was blaming himself for not stopping it in time.
Xuan Shaoning's fellow teacher Gong Zhengyuan temporarily changed the route of the pursuit according to the clues along the way on the way to the pursuit, and when they came to this time, they happened to meet Xiao Yunqi to catch up with Xiao Yunsheng, and then the next scene happened, and the two of them witnessed this scene completely.
