Chapter 253: One Inch of Ten Thousand Knots (II)

On July 7, Su Xiru ascended the throne and was named Emperor Yin.

On that day, Su Liruo was half-leaning on the reclining chair in the outer room and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, Xu is the fetus in her womb is growing, and her body is becoming more and more bulky and weak.

When Xiao Wei and Guzhu pushed the door in, an anxious voice floated in: "Little princess, the humble position was sent by General Ye..."

Su Liruo opened his eyes suddenly, and Xiao Wei hurriedly closed the door.

Su Liruo sat up, frowned and asked, "Who is making noise outside?"

Xiao Wei dodged his gaze and muttered: "My sister is tired, it should be an auditory hallucination, just ignore it."

Su Liruo's face froze, turned his head to look at Gu Zhu, who was a little uneasy, and said lightly: "You say, what's the matter?"

Guzhu blinked and glanced at Xiao Wei in embarrassment.

Before Xiao Wei could speak, Su Liruo had already lifted the thin blanket covering her body, and said coldly: "What, you guys are going to discuss... Who's going to answer? ”

Xiao Wei lowered his head, bit his lip and said, "Today, the eldest princess ascended the throne..."

I see! Su Liruo breathed a sigh of relief, pulled the blanket, covered it casually, she leaned back, and leaned calmly.

"And then?" Suddenly, she asked, raising her eyes.

"Ahh Xiao Wei was stunned, and looked at Gu Zhu sideways at a loss.

Gu Zhu sighed secretly in his heart: I can't hide it from the left and right, so just say it openly! She said slowly: "Madam, the enthronement ceremony is being held in the front hall, but unexpectedly, there are rebels attacking the new emperor, and it is General Ye who sent someone to ask for help..."

Since sleeping in the Huasheng Hall that night, Su Liruo came up from the dark passage, and hurriedly touched Su Xiru and fainted, and after that, she never saw her sister again.

She seemed to be deliberately avoiding it, and Su Liruo didn't want to see her.

But the affairs of the palace, Su Liruo is very clear, because Hui Wu swaggered out of the prison in three days and two days, sometimes, Su Liruo wondered if he was staying in the cell? Why, he knows everything about the palace.

Hui Wu hasn't shown up for a few days, so she really doesn't know about her sister's accession to the throne today.

Su Liruo secretly sneered in her heart: she finally got the throne as she wished!

However, Su Liruo understands that even if she ascends to the throne, it will not be so easy to hold real power!

As for General Ye mentioned by Gu Zhu, it is Ye Jingsong!

Hui Wu was depressed and willing to be in a prison cell, but he stubbornly refused to bow his head and admit his mistakes, and now, Su Xiru only has Ye Jingsong by her side to be trusted and sent by her.

In order to establish authority, she ignored the opposition of the courtiers and insisted on promoting Ye Jingsong and named him the general of Changwu.

Of course, Su Liruo learned about these things from Hui Wu.

Thinking of it, Su Liruo's face changed slightly, and she could imagine that the main hall was already fighting with swords at this moment, and it was full of dangers.

Xiao Wei looked at Su Liruo uneasily.

Suddenly, the door opened again, and the three of them came in, it was quiet outside, and they couldn't hear Fang Cai's anxious voice, it should be Naraku who expelled people.

Su Liruo pondered for a moment, looked up at everyone, and for a long time, wanted to get up from the reclining chair, and said, "I'll take a look!"

Naraku stepped forward quickly, leaned over and pressed her arm, and said in a deep voice: "The weapon is dangerous, Madame must not be rash!"

Chad also muttered on the side: "We are protecting Xuanruo's safety, no matter what her enthronement ceremony, success or failure?"

Nightshade turned his face away and said nothing.

Xiao Wei and Guzhu looked at each other and sighed.

Su Liruo stared at Naraku, his gaze was indifferent, but a voice permeated him, slow and heavy, hoarse and stubborn.

Naraku seemed to hear from her deep eyes: this is the place where I was born and raised, the laughter that carried me, and the carefree years. It is the peace and prosperity of the ancestors who fought for their lives, laid the foundation with blood, consolidated with white bones, and created a peaceful and prosperous era. I can't watch it fall again, repeating the tragedy of the bloodbathed hall and the corpses being trampled on, so I must do my best... Guard it.

Su Liruo's tenacious eyes startled Naluo, he slowly let go of his hand, straightened his back, cast a helpless glance at Su Liruo, then turned around and said in a low voice: "Okay!"

Nightshade's brow furrowed, looking back at Naraku in disbelief.

"What? Do you want to help her? Chat glared at it, and couldn't help but say angrily: "You have all forgotten, if it wasn't that woman, could the owner of the village have an accident?"

Su Liruo's breathing suddenly stagnated, her face turned pale in an instant, her heart ached, and her shoulders trembled uncontrollably. She lowered her eyes, her body curled slightly, her hands clenched into fists in her sleeves, her fingertips embedded in her palms, almost piercing the flesh.

Naluo slanted slightly, and glanced at it hurriedly, only he knew that if Su Li couldn't hear the mention of the owner, all her strong and hard-working disguises, even if they were cast into an impregnable fortress, could collapse in an instant.

Naraku sank his face and glanced coldly at Chat.

Nightshadow didn't say a word, and raised his feet to walk out of the door first, and when Chad saw this, he reluctantly moved his steps in the face of Naraku's cold and stern gaze.

Su Liruo looked at their departing backs with a heavy heart, and said softly, "Be careful!"

Naraku turned his head and bowed slightly.

When Naluo closed the door, the footsteps were far away, and Gu Zhu and Xiao Wei were waiting beside Su Liruo in a daze, while she stared at the closed door in distraction. For a moment, the room was silent, and no one spoke.

Basilica.

Emperor Yin's face was gloomy, and a pair of unfathomable eyes swept coldly over the courtiers in the hall.

And the sharp sword in Ye Jingsong's hand was against the throat of a strong minister, and the tip of the sword faintly entered, and blood flowed.

At this time, most of the ministers in the palace were panicked, and a few of them adhered to the attitude of being obscure and watching the fire from the other side. 17

There were more than a dozen corpses of black-clothed people lying on the ground, a sword into the chest, the blood hole had solidified, and there should have been a fight to the death before.

Several groups of black-clothed men armed with bows and arrows continued to pour in at the entrance of the main hall, instantly surrounding the Manchu ministers.

The Hidden Emperor slowly got up, squinted, and stared coldly at the black crushing archer. This scene, as before, she took Ye Jingsong and Hui Wu, as well as those secret guards, to be surrounded by the thrill of the hall.

Sure enough, it is Yan Xingchen's usual ruthlessness! Everyone is dead, and there is still one hand left to disrupt the situation, the last fight.

However, at that time, Feng Xuanyu led Yan Xingchen away, making him unable to get out, and came to the Great Palace to give an order. At that time, Huiwu was still dead set on her and protected her to the death.

Suddenly, Emperor Yin's eyes were full of anger, and with a wave of his long arm, a voice as cold as frost resounded through the hall: "Kill!"

As soon as her words fell, Ye Jingsong's palm tightened, and he twisted the hilt of the sword hard, boom! With a bang, the sword slashed across the neck, and with Ye Jingsong's churning figure, a stream of blood gushed out, and the head of the strong minister rolled down.

The faces of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty changed drastically, and they retreated in a panic, although it was the hot summer, everyone felt cold air all over their bodies, especially those ministers who were watching coldly.

They looked at the sturdy minister who was still entangled just now, and the high-spirited minister was splashed with blood in the hall in an instant, and he died on the spot, and the pair of bulging eyes on his head had not had time to blink before his body was separated.

There were still remnants in their ears of his anger to prevent Emperor Yin from holding the enthronement ceremony, and he reprimanded him eloquently: "Ridiculous, the eldest princess of the previous dynasty left the palace since she was a child, and she has not been seen for many years, even if the first emperor is tyrannical, she has never appeared. Today, she ascended to the throne of God by virtue of her words, so rash and reckless, if she fell into the scheme of traitors, wouldn't it be disgraceful to the century-old reputation of Dayu? Laughing at people? ”

Emperor Yin smiled coldly and asked, "Then according to Xiang Hou's opinion, what should I do?"

Xiang Hou had a calm face and said in a loud voice: "If you want to ascend the throne, please invite the little princess to come!"

"And then?" Emperor Yin raised his eyebrows and smiled, his heroic spirit was fully displayed, and Xuanyu was extraordinary.

"Blood test!" Xiang Hou thought that she had fallen into a trap, so he talked eloquently: "If the emperor's heir is orthodox and chooses an auspicious time to hold an enthronement ceremony, if not, you will be a chaotic minister and thief, bewitching the government and the opposition, instigating palace chaos, taking the opportunity to seek power, and wanting to usurp the throne!"

As soon as Xiang Hou's words came out, in an instant, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty looked at each other, and then realized that they all looked like they had suddenly realized.

Emperor Yin raised his eyes and looked at the ministers who were whispering, they agreed with Xiang Hou's remarks, and the corners of her mouth sneered. Indifferently said: "If I don't follow..."

"It's caused by a weak heart!" Xiang Hou flashed sideways, and with a wave of his big hand, dozens of black-clothed people flashed out with knives, quickly swept forward, and raised their knives to slash at the Hidden Emperor who was sitting on the top of the hall.

When the ministers were stunned, more than a dozen figures jumped out behind the Hidden Emperor, blocking the menacing black-clothed man.

In an instant, the sword light and sword shadows were dazzling, and one of the figures rose in the air, jumped in front of Xiang Hou, and waved out his palms fiercely.

Xiang Hou is also a military general, and he is calm and calm in the face of danger.

The ministers fixed their eyes: it turned out to be Ye Jingsong! He was once the commander of Emperor Heng's bodyguard, and since Emperor Heng's death, he has also disappeared. They guessed that he should have shouldered the heavy responsibility and mission, in fact, they already knew the identity of the Hidden Emperor above the palace, and Xiang Hou's words and deeds were nothing more than an unforeseen heart, but they let him indulge and speak disrespectfully, the purpose was also to weaken the arrogance of the Hidden Emperor.

Some time ago, she had taken over the affairs of the court, and before the enthronement ceremony was held, she got rid of the old chapters and abandoned bad habits, repaired the law, and redrafted the law. She also gave Ye Jingsong the title of Changwu general, issued an edict to reduce taxes and exempt taxes, reclaim wasteland, and increase fields for farming.

Several veteran ministers admonished, but she immediately stopped, the Tao is that the old canons have been abolished, and the new laws and regulations have been drafted, so they will not be stubborn, the emperor of the dynasty is stable and proper, how can it be limited to the enthronement ceremony, it will be a wasted time, and do nothing!

Those old ministers experienced Yan Xingchen's ferocity and viciousness, obscenity and persecution, and the weakness and incompetence of Emperor Chong, and they were always obedient, and they had long been disgusted. Unexpectedly, this new emperor acted vigorously and resolutely, and often acted by surprise, and did the opposite, which directly taught them headaches.

Just when Ye Jingsong and Xiang Hou fought more than a dozen moves, the black-clothed man holding the knife had been half solved by the secret guard, Xiang Hou glanced at it hurriedly, and was secretly surprised in his heart: I didn't expect the secret guard trained by Ye Jingsong to be so powerful!

But as Yan Xingchen's last step on the chessboard, how could he escape? Even if he fights to the death, he will carry it out to the end, this is the death order given to him by Yan Xingchen.

At this time, Ye Jingsong revealed a flaw, Xiang Hou was overjoyed, and made a move to fish for the moon under the water, sweeping the volume. It's just that his palm power was swung out, Ye Jingsong flickered, and there was no figure, and when he came back to his senses, a cold light swept through, and the tip of the sword reached his throat.

Xiang Hou was stunned, stunned, glared angrily, and stared at Ye Jingsong.

The remaining sword-wielding men in black retreated and swept away, and in a few moments, they were gone.

The Hidden Emperor raised his eyes, glanced slowly, and all the secret guards retreated.

At the same time, a group of archers flashed outside the hall.

Ye Jingsong shook the tip of the sword slightly, leaned into his throat slightly, and blood spilled out a little.

Xiang Hou smiled disdainfully, his eyes contemptuous of the Hidden Emperor above the hall.

Emperor Yin made contact with his gaze, and instantly understood Xiang Hou's intentions, it seems that he received Yan Xingchen's death order, so it is impossible for Ye Jingsong to hold him hostage and quell this bloody storm. Seeing that archers were pouring in from outside the hall, and the ministers, some of them were obviously on the sidelines, and waiting for an opportunity to exit the palace full of dangers.

Since Xiang Hou can't order the archers to stop the crisis, what's the use of keeping him? Because whether or not he is him, these archers will fight to the death, it is better to strike first, so as to deter those courtiers who have evil intentions and stand by.

Emperor Yin then ordered to kill without forgiveness.

Before the ministers could roll off their heads to the ground, the headless corpses that had fallen to their senses came back to their senses, and many secret guards suddenly jumped down from the pillars of the main hall.

They staggered their figures, intertwined and soared, and between their raised hands, the tension and light struck directly at the arrows they shot. The sound of touching and fighting came and went, and it fell to the ground.

Ye Jingsong waved his long sword, took advantage of the gap to drive towards the archers, and before they could shoot arrows, he assassinated a few, and blood splattered for a while.

The ministers were stunned, and the three of them flew into the air, only to feel a dazzle, and the figures leaped forward, and they went around and struck, killing a group of archers silently.

The ministers looked at each other, and they glanced at the Hidden Emperor above the hall in horror, she was calm and calm, and her expression was leisurely. Everyone sighed secretly: It seems that a fight to the death is inevitable. In just a few years, after several changes, although Yan Xingchen's methods were ruthless, he did not involve the courtiers in the situation of life and death, let alone the inactive Emperor Chong. The last time the main hall was besieged by archers, and today's momentum of breaking the bamboo, it seems that the only empress in front of them in the past dynasties of Yuguo is really extraordinary!

Among the courtiers, the person who knew the times shouted: "Bold traitor, actually plotting rebellion, this official will fight to the death today to protect the Dayu country, protect Your Majesty safe and sound, kill!"

"Kill!" The courtiers echoed magnificently,

The corners of Emperor Yin's lips rose, and in the haze, a hint of a comfortable smile loomed, but the cold swept through his eyes: These old horsemen who see the wind and rudder are simply ridiculous and shameful, look at how I will clean up and punish them in the future!

At the same time, she secretly relaxed her tense heart, stared at the figure of Naraku, and glanced thoughtfully and melodiously, as if the sound of killing, bows and arrows, and blades through the hall reached Qiu Yige.

Emperor Yin knew that even if she sent someone to support, she would never be able to forgive easily, and maybe she would not be able to let go of her hatred for her in this life!

Emperor Yin looked at her, who informed her that the hall was in crisis? Ye Jingsong is trapped here, is it...

Emperor Yin's heart was shocked, although he understood that he could never go back to the past, his loyalty to her, and his desperate affection for guarding, but she still hoped that one day he would be able to figure it out? Willingly put it down and got out of the cell.
