Section 118 Chapter 111 South Gate

The emperor's grandfather is dead, his father is dead, and his mother is also dead, so what is he doing alive?

No, he can't die. He's got to live, he's got to live. Li Yanxu is right, he still wants to avenge his father and mother, he can't let them die without turning a blind eye!

Lan Yucheng, who was already in a state of discouragement, suddenly grabbed the clothes in his hand, and the firmness in his eyes suddenly made Li Yanxu happy.

"I'll go out with you!" Lan Yucheng said firmly.

Li Yanxu walked in front, followed by Lan Yucheng, who bowed his head slightly. Occasionally, I met a few palace people, and they all passed unharmed.

The south gate in front of him was in front of him, Li Yanxu suddenly became more and more uneasy in his heart, half a step behind, walked behind Lan Yucheng's shoulders, looked ahead with his eyes, and said, "Wait, if something abnormal happens, immediately hold me hostage with the sword at your waist." ”

"Didn't I bother you?" Lan Yucheng said with a frown.

"No, when they see you holding me hostage, they will only do it when I am forced. I have already made a marriage with Miss Jiang Si of the Mighty Marquis Mansion, and if I don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, they will not care about my safety at all. After Li Yanxu finished speaking, he walked forward quickly and walked in front of Lan Yucheng.

Sure enough, just when they were still twenty paces away from the south gate, suddenly, the Praetorian Guard commander with a team of thirty people ran briskly towards this side.

The uneasiness in Li Yanxu's heart became even greater.

"Guard Li has come all the way, have you seen Prince Luo's son?" The Commander of the Praetorian Guard stepped forward with a smile on his face and asked. Although he is a commander, he does not dare to underestimate this Li Yanxu. Although this person's current official position is not as good as his, who let him have a first-class Shangshu Ling as Lao Tzu, and he was lucky to marry the young lady of the Weiwu Marquis Mansion. In terms of generation, this Li Yanxu also has to call the new emperor an uncle and the new queen an aunt. It was a blessing he couldn't even imagine.

"I haven't seen it, isn't Prince Naluo locked up in the side hall of the Qianqing Palace? The Commander-in-Chief should look elsewhere! Li Yanxu had a normal smile on his face, and he didn't see anything wrong.

"Hey, that kid was still stumbling around when he was dying, and he suddenly escaped from the side hall, making the brothers tired and tired and looking for him......" As he spoke, the commander of the Praetorian Guard suddenly noticed that there was a guard behind Li Yanxu, who kept his head down and didn't make a sound, and he didn't even salute when he saw him, did he think he was the second Li Yanxu? I don't know the rules so much.

"You, where are you on duty?" The Janissary Commander stepped forward angrily and asked.

Lan Yucheng had already discovered that the person who was talking in front of him was the one who killed his father in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace. Being able to hold back and not do it is already his limit. Now, seeing that he was about to be discovered by him, he immediately drew his sword, put it on Li Yanxu's neck, looked up at the Praetorian Guard commander, and said, "Let them all retreat away, otherwise I will kill him!" ”

The commander of the Praetorian Guard originally wanted to teach this unruly guard a lesson, but he didn't expect that as soon as this person looked up, it turned out to be the prince of Luo who they couldn't find.

"Hmm~Hmm~Hmm~" Countless long swords were drawn from their scabbards.

"Prince Luo, if you are captured, I will protect you from death!" The commander of the Praetorian Guard let Lan Yucheng go so easily, and immediately drew his sword against each other.

When Lan Yucheng heard this, he sneered: "He Lan Shikang wants me to die, can you protect me from death?" Big joke! ”

"Everyone knows that you have a deep personal relationship with this Li guard, even if you hold him hostage, it is useless." The commander of the Praetorian Guard tried to take a step into Lan Yucheng with his sword.

Seeing this, Lan Yucheng immediately sent his sword into another point, and threatened: "He is now the lackey of the Mighty Marquis Mansion, and he has long been inseparable from my Prince Luo's Mansion!" If you are not afraid to be buried with him, you can come up and try it! ”

The commander of the Praetorian Guard was in a dilemma, and he really didn't dare to act rashly. If Li Yanxu dies, I am afraid that he and the thirty brothers behind him, even if they don't die, they will have to shed their skin.

Lan Yucheng carried Li Yanxu and moved slowly towards the south gate, carefully staring at the people around him.

At this moment, Lan Yucheng suddenly sensed a sharp qi coming towards his shoulder. When he turned around, he found that it was not far away, and the dark arrow shot by the archer, and it was too late to dodge it at this time.

At this moment, a man suddenly appeared in the air and kicked the arrow away with his right foot. When the archer let out a miserable scream, everyone realized that the feather arrow that was shot at Lan Yucheng had turned around and shot at the archer.

Lan Yucheng often stayed in the palace, and he couldn't remember the person who saved his life, who was sacred, and he was free to go in and out of the palace.

This man was unmasked, about fifty years old, about seven feet tall, and very burly. A pair of eyes, like eagle eyes, do not allow others to look directly. stood in the crowd, but no one dared to step forward to provoke.

He glanced at Li Yanxu and said to Lan Yucheng, "Shizi, the old man will take you out." ”

Lan Yucheng didn't know why he believed so much in the person he met for the first time, and he didn't know if he had the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor. I saw Lan Yucheng nodding to the man very firmly, and then he let go of the sword on Li Yanxu's neck and said, "I'm sorry, take care!" ”

"Surround them and leave no one behind!" Suddenly, the archers in the distance shot the arrows from the giant bow, and after a round, all the Praetorian Guards present began to approach the three in the middle.

The man flew up, waved his sleeves, and the hundreds of feathered arrows were all shot towards the Janissaries who had outflanked him, and suddenly there was a scream in the south gate.

When the man landed, the ground trembled, and all but the three of them who had survived the feathered arrows fell to the ground at the same time.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the officers and soldiers guarding the palace gate immediately sounded the alarm and closed the palace gate.

Seeing that he could no longer get out of the main entrance, the man immediately shouted, "Let's go." Then he grabbed Lan Yucheng and walked towards the palace wall.

The walls of the palace could not be used by anyone without tools. Unexpectedly, in front of this man, it was like a low wall, and he jumped over it easily.

The closed palace gate became an obstacle to the Praetorian Guard's pursuit.

After flying out of the palace, seeing that there were no pursuers behind him, the man put down Lan Yucheng in the woods.

Lan Yucheng immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "The senior saved my life today, at this time, Lan Yucheng has nothing to repay, please accept my salute!" ”

The man staggered slightly, stretched out his hand to help Lan Yucheng up, and said, "The son doesn't have to be like this, the old man is ordered by the emperor to protect the son of the world." ”

Lan Yucheng didn't shirk, got up with the man's hand, and asked, "How could Grandpa Huang let his seniors come to rescue me?" ”

"The old man has followed the emperor for more than 30 years since he ascended the throne. It's just that he has always been in the shadows and never shows up, unless something happens to the emperor. The matter of the Qianqing Palace, the death of Prince Luo, in fact, the old man was also at the scene, but at that time, the outside of the palace was surrounded by Prince Cheng, even if the old man wanted to take away your father and you, he was powerless. Since you left the side hall, the old man has been following you, when you were pulled into the cave by the Li family's kid, the old man also wanted to attack him, but he saw that he had no ill will towards you, so he gave up. I thought he would be able to take you out safely, but there was an accident. In desperation, the old man had no choice but to show up to rescue. ”

"Since the predecessor is the person next to the emperor's grandfather, can the predecessor tell me, who will inherit the throne in this edict?" Lan Yucheng looked at the man and said.

"It's your father, Prince Luo!"

"Sure enough, I also asked my seniors to accompany me into the palace to expose the conspiracy of Lan Shikang, who was plotting to usurp the throne, in front of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs!" When Lan Yucheng thought of Lan Shikang, he couldn't wait to drink his blood and eat his flesh.

I saw that the man shook his head and said, "The old man also looked for the original edict, but he couldn't find it. Even if the old man shows up, how many people will believe it? Besides, Prince Cheng holds the power of the army, how can you and the old man be enemies? "Although the emperor praised this prince of Luo, he was just a child after all, and his thoughts were too naïve.

"Then, then, do you want me to watch him sit on the dragon chair?" Lan Yucheng looked unacceptable, and punched the ground fiercely.
