Chapter 224: The Sacrificial House
The layout of the sacrificial house is built in the style of a six-pointed star, which is very rare in the snowy region.
The ramp along the six-pointed star pattern divides the sacrificial house into six separate buildings. Each individual complex is a branch of the sacrificial house.
Shen Yuanliang, the high priest of the sacrificial house, is in charge of the astrology department, the second sacrifice is still sui, the alchemy department is in charge, the third sacrifice is Lu Chunqiu, the department is in charge of the heavenly industry, the fourth sacrifice is Banu, the department is in charge of the witch god, the fifth sacrifice is eight eyes and ichiro, and the sixth sacrifice is in charge of the soul department.
The six sacrifices have their own strengths, and the poison of the witch Gu is the joint research and creation of Shang Sui of the Alchemy Department and Banu of the Witch God Department.
The priests wielded a variety of sorcery and were so powerful that they surpassed the level of a samurai.
In the morning, after the civil and military officials went down to the court, the generals defending the city in Piaoxue City were assassinated one after another, and most of the ministers who returned home were also sick. The high priest Shen Yuanliang originally thought that the sudden drowning of Queen Zuo was an earth-shattering event, so he came to the palace early in the morning with the second priest Shang Sui, wanting to find out the real cause of Queen Zuo's death. They conducted a careful examination in the incense hall and repeatedly interrogated the six palace maids who served Queen Zuo, and finally concluded that Queen Zuo had been murdered and killed.
But at this time, there was already chaos in the palace, and no one cared about why Queen Zuo died. Everyone is worried about what will happen to the eldest prince Mo Kemo after he breaks the city.
The Red Gold Khan was still stupid, and the high priest Shen Yuanliang and the second priest Shang Sui were also helpless. After the early dynasty, Xiao Yan, the khan's personal maid, suddenly became stupid. Rumors arose in the palace, all of which were rumored that the Khan had fallen into evil.
Now the person in charge of the palace is the Empress Dowager Xiande, the old mother of the Chijin Khan.
The Empress Dowager Xiande is ninety years old, and her body is quite tough, but she is already a little dazzled and deaf.
Monk Shen Yuanliang stood with his hands tied in front of the Empress Dowager Xiande.
The Empress Dowager Xiande's voice was like a flood bell: "Don't stop talking!" Say anything! How can Khan's disease be cured? β
Shang Sui said: "Khan's illness came suddenly, and the symptoms are also very strange, when I go back, I will refine some Hui Shen Dan for Khan to take, maybe it will be better." β
The Empress Dowager Xiande sighed: "There are still diseases in this world that can make you embarrassed, and they are basically terminal diseases!" β
Shen Yuanliang said: "Sanjie is in contact with the eldest prince Mo Kemo, hoping to resolve the crisis in Drifting Snow City through negotiations. β
Empress Dowager Xiande said: "I know best what temper my own eldest grandson has, we all sat idly by when his mother died, and he will no longer negotiate with us from then on." β
Shen Yuanliang said: "It has been ascertained that the eldest prince Mo Kemo's two sons and daughters are now in the prince's mansion. What should we do? β
Empress Dowager Xiande said: "What action to take?" β
Shen Yuanliang said: "If a group of children of the eldest prince are tied to the city, do you think he will still order the soldiers to attack?" β
Empress Dowager Xiande said angrily: "Although I am unreasonable, I will not threaten my eldest grandson's child with him. If he has the means to enter the palace, I will sit here and wait for him. I'd like to see what he can do with his father Khan and my grandmother. β
Shen Yuanliang said: "As long as the city protection array is intact, the Drifting Snow City will be as solid as a rock, and even if he exhausts his 30,000 troops, he will not want to step into the city for half a step." β
Empress Dowager Xiande said: "So the most important thing now is to protect the city protection array." Go back first, don't let anyone ruin the formation. β
Shen Yuanliang said: "The queen mother can rest assured, her subordinates will retire!" β
Outside the Drifting Snow City, the eldest prince Mo Kemo was wearing blood-red armor of the god of war and saw the drawbridge put down.
The head of the Canglan family sat on the chariot and was carried to the city by four mighty wrestlers.
The eldest prince Mo Ke Morang shouted: "Uncle Canglan has not seen you for a long time! β
The four wrestlers slowly lowered the chariot to the ground, and the head of the Canglan family walked down the chariot with his back and came to the eldest prince Mo Kemo's side to respectfully perform the courtesy of the monarch and ministers.
The eldest prince Mo Kemo said: "Why does Uncle Canglan dare not be the courtesy of the monarch and the minister!" In the future, those with ulterior motives will have one more charge against me. β
The head of the Canglan family said: "Your Highness, the injustice you have suffered is very clear in your heart. It's just that I hope that His Royal Highness will focus on the overall situation, and don't bring the flames of war into Drifting Snow City. Because that's where you were born and raised, and where you have many of your relatives. β
The eldest prince Mo Kemo looked up to the sky and roared, and sorrow came from it: "The person who gave birth to me has been forced to death by you, and I won't pity any of you at this time?" β
The head of the Canglan family said: "Your Highness still has a pair of children still in the prince's mansion, don't you think about a little flesh and blood?" β
The eldest prince Mo Kemo said: "Will the Chijin Khan, who is famous in the sea for the Eight Desolations, use his grandson to blackmail his son?" That would only make me despise him even more, and even if he tied all my sons and daughters to the city, I would order a great army to attack it. β
The head of the Canglan family said: "If you want to break the city, there must be a bloody battle, and it will take at least twenty years for Drifting Snow City to recover after the war. Do you think it's worth it for your own selfish anger? β
The eldest prince Mo Kemo looked at the Titan soldiers who were ready to attack the city and said, "The arrow is ready to fly, I have to send it!" β
The head of the Canglan family looked at the eldest prince Mo Kemo and said deeply: "In this way, let the old slave send His Royal Highness back to the west!" β
The eldest prince Mo Kemo sneered: "Don't you say that I almost forgot that you were the king of killers under the Khan's account. As a young man, you infiltrated the enemy camp many times alone, and taking the head of the enemy chief was like a bag. But you're old, are you still the terrifying king of killers back then? β
A cyclone rose into the sky, and the stars could be seen falling during the day. Prime Minister Renjie and Gongliang Xingchen saw the true qi in the void being released, and they both had a bad premonition.
The three armies outside the Drifting Snow City shook, and the eldest prince Mo Kemo carried the God of War Sword and wiped the blood stains on it.
The head of the Canglan family is too old, and if he wants to kill the eldest prince, Mo Kemo has no choice but to make a sneak attack. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, the head of the Canglan family used the Blood Burning Technique, instantly gathering all the true qi in his body and condensing it into a heart-shattering palm that hit the chest of the eldest prince Mo Kemo.
The power of this palm penetrated extremely strongly, and the dozen or so guards behind the eldest prince Mo Kemo were all shattered to death.
The eldest prince Mo Kemo was lucky not to die because he was wearing the armor of the god of war, and he said with a pale face: "You really look like killing me?" β
After speaking, he stabbed into the heart of the head of the Canglan family.
After gathering his merits, the head of the Canglan family was already determined to die, and when he saw that his broken heart palm did not hurt the eldest prince Mo Kemo, he was surprised and relieved: "I just did what I thought was the right thing." β
The eldest prince Mo Kemo sneered: "Really? Originally, I didn't intend to embarrass any of the three of you. But just because of your stupidity, after the city is broken, I will order the army to wipe out your Canglan family from Drifting Snow City forever. β
The head of the Canglan family has reached the time of going against the current: "If slaughtering more than 800 people of my Canglan family can resolve the anger in His Highness's heart, then the blood of our family is worth it." I also hope that His Royal Highness will spare the people in the city and other civil and military officials. Because they are all your subjects. β
The eldest prince Mo Kemo said sadly: "It's a pity that I can't agree to your request. The reason why the Titan tribe sent troops to help me fight for the position of Khan is to get some benefits. β
The head of the Canglan family endured his last breath and said, "What conditions did you promise them?" β
The eldest prince Mo Kemo said: "After the city is broken, let them loot in the city for three days." β
When the head of the Canglan family heard this, he spit out a mouthful of blood and died straight to the end.
Seeing this, the defenders on the lookout of the city gate tower exclaimed sadly: "Report! The head of the Canglan family was killedβ"
The letter soon spread to Prime Minister Renjie's mansion and soon spread throughout the city.
Once upon a time, the head of the Canglan family had become the second largest symbol within the Chijin Khanate after the Chijin Khanate. The death of the head of the Canglan family completely angered the Prime Minister Renjie and Gongliang Xingchen of the main battle faction.
Together, the two of them began to mobilize the city guards to carry out a large-scale cleanup of the lords and officials in the city.
Once the order reached the barracks, it turned into a massacre. Many of the Lord's family and friends were also executed as spies on trumped-up charges.
The frenzied city guards even surrounded the East Palace to capture Fushengye alive, forcing him to make a statement and let him kill the eldest prince Mo Kemo's two children to show his loyalty.
At this time, Fushengye had already placed the fake Khan's edict in the sacrificial house, and he didn't know how the sacrificial center would react after seeing the edict.
The group of city guards who were noisy outside the gate were not numerous, after all, they did not dare to force their way into the prince's mansion.
There are 500 elite soldiers guarding the prince's mansion, and these people are Lei Zhe's private army, with excellent equipment and extraordinary combat power.
Zuoqiu Feibai didn't look down on those city guards, he came to the door with a knife and glared at those city guards and said, "You ignorant children, what are you still shouting about when you die?" β
As soon as a centurion in the city guards saw someone shouting, he was stunned and went to negotiate with Zuoqiu Feibai. Zuoqiu Feibai didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, and raised his hand to cut off half of the centurion's helmet with a knife.
Zuoqiu Feibai said: "I can cut your helmet, I can cut your dog's head, if you don't want to die, give me a roll, and if you don't want to roll, shut up with me." Look at how I chop melons and vegetables and send you all away! β
The floating leaves came to the residence of Meng Fanye, and Lan Xin opened the door to greet him.
As soon as Fusheng Ye entered the house, he saw Han Xiye looking at him with clear eyes, and called: "Big brother!" β
The voice was familiar, and he knew that Han Xiye had recovered to its original state. This means that she has taken the antidote. The little white fox Ahri was not in the prince's mansion, and asked Han Xiye where she went, but Han Xiye didn't know. She couldn't even remember how Ahri had made her take the antidote.
Lan Xin had already told Han Xiye about Meng Fanye's poisoning and giving the antidote to Han Xiye first.
Han Xiye was very moved after hearing this, and vowed to find an antidote to save Dream Brahman.
Ahri not only went out, but also took the statue of the goddess of the moon and the sword of the young priest with him. Floating leaves don't know where Ahri is going.
He knew that Ahri already had a lot of his own thoughts because of his constantly awakened memories.
Zuoqiu Feibai made a fuss outside the door, and sure enough, those city guards were scattered.
Because this siege of the Prince's Mansion is just a temptation, the person in charge behind it wants to see what the floating leaves are capable of, and whether it is worth cooperating. Therefore, after the withdrawal of this small group of city guards, there was no large group of men and horses to retaliate.
