"Your Highness, what's going on outside?" The noise outside the palace gate had already reached the vicinity of the middle hall, not only Chu Shenxia was puzzled, but many eunuchs and palace maids also stretched their necks to look out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Liu Yan didn't raise his eyelids, motioned for Chu Shenxia to sit down, and asked, "Is your mother okay?" ”

"Good." Chu Shenxia replied simply and clearly, which surprised Liu Yan and asked in surprise, "Didn't you escape from Qixia Mountain?" ”

"Yes, didn't Your Highness know from the coachman that I was on Qixia Mountain?" Chu Shenxia also looked very confused.

Liu Yan shook his head, looked at Chu Shenxia fixedly, and said, "The coachman went with you and has not returned yet, as for whether you are in Qixia Mountain, it is just my guess." ”

Chu Shenxia saw that he didn't know where he was, so he regretted it a little, he didn't answer it so early if he knew it, and he could still make up a lie or something, round a circle, now it seems that he has to talk about it.

Before Chu Shenxia could think of the wording, Liu Yan's eyes flashed, and he slowly spoke: "I thought your mother was used by Liu Yu to blackmail you, but now it seems that ...... It's not as simple as I thought it would be. ”

"This matter is indeed a long story, if Your Highness wants to hear it, then I will tell Your Highness about it." Chu Shenxia raised his head slightly and looked out of the hall, as if he was very concerned about the outside of the hall.

Liu Yan didn't eat his set, poured himself a cup of tea, and then made a deferential appearance, and said with a smile: "I want to listen, you can talk about it, it doesn't matter how long you talk about it." ”

"Good ......" Chu Shenxia responded, and thought for a long time before he spoke: "My mother and my grandfather Li Fu lived together in the Taoist temple in Qixia Mountain, and they were not coerced, they lived voluntarily. ”

"Why is that?" Liu Yan suddenly interrupted him.

Chu Shenxia raised his eyelids and asked rhetorically, "Has Your Highness heard of the Jiangcheng Alliance Lord...... Infernal? ”

"Infernal? Is it the Infernal of the previous dynasty? I heard that during the fall of the Jin Dynasty, the entire Jiangcheng was destroyed, and no one survived. Liu Yan couldn't understand why he suddenly mentioned such an irrelevant person.

"Yes, I ......"

Chu Shenxia only said a few words, and was interrupted by Lu Zhi, who rushed in with a shout, "It's not good." Your Highness, Hu Du rushed in with people! ”

Liu Yan got up suddenly, with an unreasonable look on his face, frowned and said angrily: "Is he crazy?" The East Palace is also something he can break into if he wants to? I think he's tired of being alive. You immediately lead the troops to take him down for me! ”

Chu Shenxia saw the two of them stepping out as soon as they stepped forward, and hurriedly followed: "This matter is too strange, I'll go and see it too." ”

"You are not allowed to go!" Liu Yan turned his head and said angrily, looking at Chu Shenxia's stunned gaze, Liu Yan realized that his tone was a little excessive. turned to a gentle voice, "The person Hu Du wants to arrest is you, aren't you just hitting the knife edge when you go out?" ”

Why did Hu Du insist that he was a murderer, he should know that there were no scars on his arms, could it be that it doesn't matter whether he is a murderer or not, what matters is something else?

But what is it else?

What made Hu Shilang, who had been waiting for the Punishment Temple for a long time and was proficient in calculations, desperate. Even risking being punished by the emperor to arrest yourself?

Chu Shenxia was really puzzled, but he was not at ease after all, and he rushed towards the palace gate with a step at the moment.

At the main gate, two teams of men and horses were fighting in one place, moving real knives and guns, and the gray-black city wall was stained with blood, and it seemed that neither of them intended to leave any affection for the other party.

"Chu Shenxia!" Someone recognized him with sharp eyes and shouted loudly.

Everyone's eyes and attention were attracted by the cold-eyed man not far away, and they rushed towards him, and the crowd was crowded. Hu Du's voice was clear and bright, like a sharp sword passing through countless people, and finally piercing into Chu Shenxia's chest.

"Chu Shenxia, you kill the important minister. The crime is monstrous, the evidence is conclusive, and you can't be caught yet! ”

Liu Yan suddenly squeezed out of the crowd, dragged Chu Shenxia over, and said hurriedly: "Hurry up, don't let you come over, why did you come over?" Hu Du is crazy. Wait for me to capture him and hand him over to my father. ”

"No, Your Highness," Chu Shenxia pressed Liu Yan's arm and said with burning eyes, "I'm afraid I'm going to be imprisoned again this time." ”

"You didn't kill people, so how could you be in prison? Let's go. Liu Yan dragged him still, was stunned for a while, and thought seriously about his words.

"Your Highness must know that the person with the wound on the arm was not the murderer from the beginning, and since he said that the evidence is conclusive, then he must have the evidence of my murder in his hand, and I can't escape." Chu Shenxia's face sank, but his tone was very calm.

Liu Yan's eyebrows tightened, and he was puzzled: "I don't understand, why do they always bite you and don't let go?" How much of a threat do you have to them? ”

While speaking, Hu Du's people had already squeezed out a hole and rushed to this side, Liu Yan glanced at the people who were chasing after him, turned back to Chu Shenxia and said, "Unless everyone in the East Palace dies in battle today, it is absolutely impossible for me to let you suffer an injustice." ”

"Come on, release the arrows!" Before Chu Shenxia could react, Liu Yan had already shouted into the distance.

But Liu Yan waited for a while, but he didn't see half an arrow, and he couldn't help but look up in surprise, only to see that there was only one person standing on the city wall, and the bow in his hand had been drawn and was ready to go.

"Hong Yan? Your Highness, go quickly. Chu Shenxia's eyes were shocked, and he hurriedly pulled Liu Yan and ran forward.

Both of them ran extremely fast, and they didn't even have time to look back, only turned a corner just to avoid the cold arrow behind them, and before they had time to catch their breath, the sound of Hong Yan sprinting after jumping off the city wall came from the side.

Chu Shenxia pressed against the wall and watched carefully, but at the same time, he couldn't help but quip: "Your Highness, don't say that someone bites me anymore, I'm afraid that the people who bite Your Highness are only several times more than me." ”

The footsteps on the side suddenly disappeared, Chu Shenxia didn't dare to speak anymore, and immediately held his breath to listen to the movement, but before he heard anything, a big knife suddenly flashed from the corner and slashed at his face.

A short body rolled to dodge, and the big knife flew towards Liu Yan again, and the big knife sparked sparks on the wall, leaving a slender trace.

"Hong Yan, do you think that killing a prince can save the people from fire and water?" Chu Shenxia didn't have a weapon in his hand, so he had to pounce on him alone, holding his hand holding the knife with both hands.

As soon as Hong Yan raised his hand, he broke free of Chu Shenxia's confinement, and said with a sad eye: "You people in the Southern Song Dynasty are the most despicable, I don't want to hear you say this, in short, I can't let him go out and harm the people again." ”

"When has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince harmed someone? You look at it from the standpoint of the Southern Song Dynasty. What has His Royal Highness done over the years, defending the Southern Song Dynasty from being violated by outsiders, and loving the people like a son, he often opened warehouses to help grain. Chu Shenxia saw his body flash. Going around himself, he was about to go forward, grabbing his left arm and preventing him from moving forward.

Hong Yan's right arm was retracted, and the big knife followed back, forcing Chu Shenxia back several steps in succession. Angry eyes widened: "He likes to kill, isn't slaughtering the city a means for him to consolidate his power?" Even in the Southern Song Dynasty, I heard that he often joined forces with you to brutalize the court's loyalty, and not only people like him deserve to die, but you also deserve to die. ”

"Then I think you deserve to die!" A sharp and sharp voice suddenly came from not far away, Ruoyu flashed behind him with light steps, and the sword in his left hand was still beautiful.

But Hong Yan knew that this swordsmanship was not only beautiful but also very dangerous. After avoiding the two moves, he couldn't help but ask, "What is Liu Yan worthy of you to be so loyal to him?" ”

"Just because he is a good prince, it can be regarded as for the people, if you don't want the world to be miserable, just stop it as soon as possible." Ruoyu saw some confusion on his face, and mistakenly thought that he was hesitating.

Unexpectedly, Hong Yan laughed twice and said: "Haha, what a joke, you work hard for him, naturally you will keep saying that he is a good person." But he slaughtered the people of Lu, that is also an indisputable fact, nonsense aside, I must take off his head today. Whoever dares to stand in my way, kill. ”

"Do you think I'm going to be afraid of you?" It was Liu Yan who spoke, he firmly grasped the sword in his hand, and with a leap of steps, the sword in his hand was intertwined with Hong Yan's knife.

The sword light and sword shadow, seeing Chu Shenxia was very nervous. He wanted to rush forward several times, but he knew that intervening indiscriminately at this time would only lead to Liu Yan, who was at a disadvantage, being killed by Hong Yan by mistake.

Ruoyu naturally thought the same way in her heart, so the two of them had been looking for an opportunity and didn't dare to make a rash move.

"Hong Yan, didn't you say that there were the most treacherous villains in the Southern Song Dynasty? I don't know why you have such a big misunderstanding of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but have you ever thought about what kind of heart the person who has been instigating you to assassinate Liu Yan is? He's using you, so don't fall into his trap. Chu Shenxia thought of what he had just said, and was suspicious.

Sure enough, when Hong Yan heard his last words, the knife in his hand paused, and his eyes were glazed, as if he was moved by his words.

Chu Shenxia saw that he had a reaction, and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and asked, "Who instigated you?" Turning things upside down? If I'm not mistaken, it should be the one who told you that Toothless is set on Peach Blossom Lady, right? ”

Hong Yan's swift moves slowly revealed flaws with his words, and he was almost taken advantage of by Liu Yan by accident, but when he came back to his senses, he glared at Chu Shenxia angrily, and concentrated on dealing with Liu Yanlai.

Chu Shenxia saw that he was uneasy, he must have said it, and his heart was naturally a little cold, but he didn't care about anything at the moment, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "If I tell you, that toothless set is on the person who told you, do you believe it or not?" ”

With a "dang" sound, the knife in Hong Yan's hand suddenly detached from his wrist and flew straight towards Chu Shenxia, followed by his angry roar, "I don't believe it!" ”

Chu Shenxia's heart beat fast, glanced at the big knife that passed by, and said: "I know you believe it, but I also want to tell you that His Royal Highness did not participate in the slaughter of the city, it was the hand of King Qing who led people, and after the incident, it was too late for His Highness to stop it." ”

Although Hong Yan has no weapon in his hand, he is still unrestricted when he fights with Liu Yan, and the highest level of a swordsman is precisely that there is no knife in his hand.

Chu Shenxia saw that his moves were no longer as fast as before, but his moves were about to kill people, and in this case, it was even more dangerous than Fang Cai.

Ruoyu on the side couldn't help but rush up, and after a few back and forth, he cooperated with Liu Yan very tacitly, and he had a draw with Hong Yan.

"Hong Yan, His Highness's whereabouts were also revealed to you by him, no one will help you for no reason, yes, these people are the treacherous villains in your mouth. You made a sharp sword in the hands of others, and you only wanted to kill His Highness, but have you ever seriously thought about what would happen if Liu Yan died? ”

Before Chu Shenxia finished speaking, Hong Yan was already distracted and said angrily: "Shut up, don't say it again!" I know you're trying to provoke me with words, mean! ”

"Actually, you know it in your heart." Chu Shenxia suddenly sneered, looked at Hong Yan's stunned gaze, and continued to break through the defense line in his heart, "As soon as Liu Yan dies, the Southern Song Dynasty will be in chaos, you just took revenge for the destruction of the Qi State, am I right?" ”

Hong Yan clenched his teeth and made a "grunt" sound, which made people's hairs stand up, Chu Shenxia took a step closer to him, and said aggressively: "You say that you are a righteous man who rises for the well-being of the world, but in fact you are not at all, you are just here to vent your personal anger and take revenge, why do you say so noble?" At the end of the day, there's no difference between you and me, a scumbag villain. ”

"Ahh The last trace of defense at the bottom of Hong Yan's heart collapsed, and after roaring angrily, he poured all his strength into his hands, and threw a punch at the left and right people, and Liu Yan and Ruoyu were knocked a foot away by him.
