Wang Feng and Xiao Jing, the king of Jin, escorted the emperor back with a carefully selected thirty elites, and he took over nearly nine hundred forbidden troops, with Xiao Changhui, the king of Lanling County, and a number of guards, and a Yue Qianqiu - at first glance, this task of staying as a bait was simply thankless, as if the emperor could not trust himself, but Xu Houcong felt very satisfied.

Last time, he only took a few people to go out with the emperor and Yue Qianqiu, but when he encountered the crazy King Han leading people to assassinate him—even if this assassination turned out to be nothing more than a joke—Xu Houcong already felt that the psychological burden was too heavy.

As a martial artist of the Southern Dynasty who had just been subjugated, he preferred to accept some tasks that were not too risky and would lose his head at every turn. And today, he was undoubtedly very satisfied with the scene of the emperor leaving him, especially when he quietly brought in a few of his close disciples and junior disciples of the Shengong Sect in private, he hoped that the emperor and other important people were not there.

Therefore, when someone from outside attacked and heard that Jingling was also shouting to kill the heavens, Xu Houcong looked very calm. He rubbed the imperial bow beside him, thinking that his hundred-step piercing Yang had only been vividly used once when he first met the emperor from afar, but today he could use it to his heart's content, and he couldn't help but bow slightly to the few people hiding in the room.

What if the emperor can't see it, but those generals of the forbidden army can see it clearly, and they can spread it by word of mouth when the time comes!

In this kind of night, it is the stage where the night arrows of the Divine Bow Gate show their might!

"Bold, the emperor is resting inside, don't step back soon...... Yes! ”

Hearing this scream, Xu Houcong didn't hesitate anymore, grabbed the door with an arrow step, hooked his toes lightly, and raised his hand after opening the door was an arrow. Within a distance of only ten steps, he could say where to shoot, and the arrow hit the chest of a man in black with a knife, directly nailing the person to the ground.

And with him taking the lead with an arrow, several disciples of the Divine Bow Sect behind him instantly snatched it out, and everyone raised their bows and shot arrows. For a while, in the open space in front of the temporary emperor's dormitory, I saw no end of bows and arrows, but I only heard the sound of strings breaking through the air, and the black-clothed people who rushed over from all directions almost became the target of the Divine Bow Gate to show extraordinary night arrow archery skills.

Rao is Yue Qianqiu had already learned the archery technique of the Divine Bow Gate from Qing Fengnian, and at this time he was hiding in the shadows, and he couldn't help but smack his tongue. At this time, the people in black were killed by this fierce wave of bows and arrows, leaving at least twenty or thirty corpses in one place, and almost collapsed, but only heard the shouting and shouting.

"There are ambushes!"

"There is no one over there for Xiao Changjun, the king of Lanling County, just pounced!"

"Get out of here, it's a trap!"

And in the midst of these shouts, Yue Qianqiu took a deep breath and shouted in a loud voice: "We were fooled, this is simply Xu Houcong deliberately released news to lure us over in order to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Without waiting for Xu Houcong and those men in black to react, he continued to yell: "Hurry up and break through separately......"

Before he could finish his call, he had already rolled over and left the place, and the next moment, he saw an arrow falling from the sky, and if he remained in place, that arrow would make him understand what it means to be a curse in a minute.

I have long known that Shengongmen also has a powerful throwing kung fu, but at this moment he doesn't even have the kung fu to break out in a cold sweat, and his body retreats quickly at the moment, sure enough, even if there are some obstacles in the place where he is hiding, there are already two more arrows nailed in the place where he just stood.

But he also knew that such a loud roar was not enough, and at the moment, he turned his heart sideways, and took advantage of the opportunity of the black-clothed people to disperse, and immediately rolled forward and hid in it, pulling out his legs and slipping away together, and shouting while running: "If it wasn't for the early preparations, how could Xu Houcong pull out all the people from the Shengong Gate, this forbidden army has changed its surname to Xu!" ”

Xu Houcong didn't expect that his secret killer feature would be slandered as an invitation to merit, risking an ambush, being angry for a while, and raising his hand is two arrows. However, at this moment, the tall and strong man had already blended in with the others, and he only missed the person next to the guy with two arrows in succession.

Just as he took a deep breath and clasped three arrows in his fingers and prepared to shoot them in a row, he only heard a loud shout.

"Quick, intercept these troublesome guys for me, don't let one go!"

Seeing that there were more than a dozen people interspersed among the black-clothed people in the other side, and in an instant, there was already a scuffle, and he recognized that it seemed to be the guards of Xiao Changhui, the king of Lanling County, and he had borrowed these guards to suppress the people in the forbidden army who were dissatisfied with him, Xu Houcong's face suddenly became quite stiff.

No matter how good his eyesight is, in this pitch-black melee between friends and enemies, he will gradually not be able to find the thick man who shouted and ruined his reputation before.

And when he saw that Xiao Changheng himself also broke into the crowd and killed two black-clothed people with a knife in his hand, even if he secretly scolded this Lanling County King for coming at an inopportune time, he didn't dare to let those Shengong Sect disciples around him shoot arrows again. After all, in such a time when there is no distinction between friend and foe, no matter how good your archery skills are, it is likely to accidentally injure your allies. As a last resort, he could only drop his big bow and raise his sword to help.

Seeing that Xiao Changxing's single knife was superbly used, those black-clothed people also rushed towards him desperately, no matter how they looked like a gang, Xu Houcong's eyes flickered, and he knocked a person unconscious, and motioned to the disciples of the Shengong Sect who followed him to drag the person away and leave a living mouth, and then he would not be merciful.

When he finally stood side by side with Xiao Changhui, he saw that the hundreds of black-clothed dead soldiers who poured in here at the beginning were at most seven or eight who resisted at most, and it was difficult to call them a threat. At this time, he finally had time to talk to Xiao Changheng.

"The king wasn't in the room before?"

"Seeing that the weather was good at night, I dragged the kid out for a walk, trying to talk about it, who knew that when I returned to the room, I heard the movement outside, and then I saw that even the quilt was lifted and slashed, damn it!" Yue Xiaosi scolded and burst out with a foul word, and then said viciously, "I heard these guys slander you just now? Hmph, rebel thief! ”

Listening to Xiao Changhui's tone, it was clear that he didn't believe those nonsense, Xu Houcong was a little settled in his heart, and then he pointed to the few disciples of the Shengong Sect who had protected a living person who had retreated to the door of the house.

"If only the county king could understand my hard work. I was really frightened by the assassination of King Han before, so I ordered a few disciples of the Shengong Sect to meet around Jingling and wait for the emperor to leave before letting them in. ”

Even with this explanation, he was still worried about causing misunderstanding, so he had to explain: "They used bows and arrows carried by the forbidden army, and they did not bring weapons to come in, which some of the forbidden soldiers can testify......"

"General Xu, you are recommended by me, will I not be able to believe you?" Yue Xiaosi's face was relieved, but this time he didn't casually grab someone's shoulder like he did with Yue Qianqiu, just with a particularly sincere smile, "Just because someone shouts that kind of nonsense, I am suspicious of you, a meritorious person, is this like words?" If anyone is talking nonsense, I'm definitely on your side! ”

Not to mention that Xu Houcong was originally a very self-aware person, no matter how arrogant he was, he would not think that he could be compared with the emperor's ex-son-in-law, and now he was robbed by several princesses. Therefore, Xiao Changheng expressed his support for him in public, and he counted the guards brought by the other party with the corner of his eye, and found that there were many of them, and his heart was finally completely relieved.

As long as Xiao Changheng doesn't calculate him, then he has one more backer, not one more enemy!

Seeing that some of his henchmen and guards who had deliberately stayed in the vicinity quickly cleaned up the mess, Xu Houcong had no choice but to thank Xiao Changheng again and again, and then invited the king of Lanling County to the house to talk. But when the lagging person stepped into the house, he asked unintentionally: "By the way, why didn't Yue Jiu Gongzi come with him?" ”

"Don't mention that stinky boy, don't do anything that doesn't benefit him, snobbish and a little money fan!" Yue Xiaosi scolded angrily, "That kid actually occupied the bed that had not been cut down, he can actually sleep!" I found out that something was wrong and brought someone over, and it happened to be a fight, and it was not in vain! ”

Thinking about Yue Qianqiu's young man's physique, and comparing with the previous big man, Xu Houcong gradually dispelled his suspicions.

Although he had also heard that the Xuandao Hall had a method that allowed thin people to wield heavy Mo knives, the difference in physique was too great, and it should be difficult for Yue Qianqiu to set off after Xiao Changhui but arrive before others, and a Northern Yan magnate like Xiao Changhui would not be able to maintain Yue Qianqiu, who already had a feud, so he quickly diverted his attention.

With Xiao Changheng by his side, he had to resolutely interrogate the living mouth that he had deliberately left, but the words he asked made him regret being in a hurry.

Yue Xiaosi gently bent his fingers and flicked the confession he had recorded himself, and his face was full of surprise: "After making trouble for a long time, it turned out to be a waste prince...... No, it's the remnants of the former deposed prince? Heh, the current abolished prince just died during the day today, how many years has the former abolished prince been dead, and he is embarrassed to turn it out? I think it's a big banner with a tiger skin, and there must be another name behind it! ”

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Houcong with earnest hope on his face: "General Xu, I see that when you deal with these rebellions tonight, you will be thunderous and full of skill, and when you return to Beijing, I will ask the emperor, and you will take the lead in investigating this matter!" To tell the truth, although His Royal Highness King Jin said that he looked close to me, I really didn't like his temperament, arrogant, assertive, and murderous, he knew that killing would be a river of blood! ”

Xu Houcong had heard that the eldest princess and the twelfth princess had trespassed into the palace of Lanling County before, so Xiao Changheng was furious and disposed of a group of subordinates, and then the eldest princess and the twelfth princess left in a hurry, and also broke the gate and plaque of the palace, and it is said that he went directly to Xiao Jingxian to complain.

Although he didn't see Xiao Jingxian and Xiao Changhui estranged today, he still tasted it when he heard what people said at this time.

It is said that although the king of Lanling County was the emperor's son-in-law, he could not talk about power in Shangjing in the past, so he stepped on the princess of Chen Guo to kill the horse of the princess of Chen Guo as revenge after returning from the southern border. The so-called conversation with Xiao Jingxian is probably because both of them are a little unscrupulous. Now it seems that unlike Xiao Jingxian, who is really "independent" to the extreme, Xiao Changheng obviously has the intention to establish his own power!

Before he could hesitate to take over this burden, which might be hot and might make contributions, he saw Xiao Changheng stand up with a pat on the armrest, and burst out a sentence that caught him off guard.

"It's good if you don't object, then it's decided!"

No objection is a promise? This Xiao Changhui is so domineering and arbitrary!
