Chapter 742: The Dust Has Settled
Yuan Feng, looking at the sword and then at Nie Jingyang, smiled bitterly, "I did lose, but you also lost." ”
When the words fell, Nie Jingyang's eyebrows were stunned.
I saw that above the city tower, one of the soldiers cut the rope that pulled Lu Qingrong, and Nie Jingyang stepped forward to pick it up almost before he had time to react.
"Whoosh"
Countless Dao rooms flew down from the city tower Nie Jingyang rushed forward while dodging, but in the end, these swords blocked his steps, and seeing that Lu Qingrong was about to fall, his heart was raised.
Lu Qingrong also screamed in fright, feeling that she was constantly falling, and her heart was also raised.
Soon many soldiers rushed out from behind Nie Jingyang, and they stepped forward one after another.
Yuan Feng looked at the many soldiers and horses that came out and smiled bitterly, they still failed after all.
immediately wiped his neck with a sword.
Seeing that, there were still two more that were about to fall to the ground, but Nie Jingyang was still five feet away from him.
"Don't." Nie Jingyang roared out directly.
Ignoring the rain of arrows, he flew forward directly.
Soon the two swords shot him in the arm and thigh, but Nie Jingyang didn't feel it at all, just looked at the falling Lu Qingrong with scarlet eyes.
However, just as Lu Qingrong was about to land, her body suddenly flicked and slowed down her landing.
And Nie Jingyang also rushed in front of Lu Qingrong and caught her.
As soon as Lu Qingrong opened his eyes, he saw Nie Jingyang, and his tears couldn't stop flowing.
Nie Jingyang looked at Lu Qingrong's heart and almost jumped out.
Luckily she's fine.
Lu Qingrong thought about the moment he just talked about and forgot to go to the city tower, but he was protected by Nie Jingyang in his arms.
Immediately, there was the sound of the army fighting in his ears, and Nie Feng had already arrived with his people.
The situation in the capital was subdued in an instant.
After a fight, the smell of blood is often filled with every street corner.
It rained heavily, as if to wash away the bloodstains, and after the heavy rain everything returned to normal, except for the scattered arrows falling on the streets, which heralded a major battle not long ago, and everything else had been washed away by the heavy rain.
Lu Qingrong woke up again and returned to the Summer Palace.
Nie Jingyang was also lying in his clothes next to her, and Lu Qingrong watched him gently sniff the coveted smell, and approached him greedily.
Nie Jingyang had already woken up, and after noticing Lu Qingrong's actions, he hugged her tightly in distress.
"I'm sorry to hurt you."
"It's good you're back, otherwise I wouldn't have known what to do."
Nie Jingyang kneaded Lu Qingrong's hair distressedly.
During this time outside, he had experienced several twists and turns, and he had hardly slept peacefully, because as soon as he closed his eyes, he would think of Lu Qingrong.
During the period when he was chased and killed by Yuan Feng's people, he almost died, and wandered in the Ghost Gate Pass again and again, it was because he heard Lu Qingrong's voice that he had the hope of living, so he rushed back to the capital.
Thankfully, she's fine.
The two couples didn't talk about the situation outside, nor did they mention anything about anyone, they just hugged each other like this, and they hugged each other for a day.
The two of them had endless words, but the words turned into thoughts for each other.
Although he didn't say anything, it seemed that a thousand words had already been spoken.
On the second day, the two of them came out of the room and went to Songhetang.
Because of the previous rescue, the entire Xuanguo Mansion was destroyed by Lu Qingrong's bomb, but fortunately, the main courtyard was not destroyed.
After such a catastrophe, the entire Xuanguo Mansion was rained and sunny.
Although it was a crisis, it was fortunate that the danger had been saved in front of him, and there was a visible smile on everyone's face.
The six princes took out the edict of succession and were already emperors, but on this eventful time, the six princes did not choose to ascend the throne in this situation, but made an oath when to catch Li Chengde and ascend the throne.
The sixth prince is only thirteen years old this year, and he is still young, so it is indeed not suitable for him to ascend the throne at this time.
The ministers did not oppose it either, nor did they dare to oppose it.
Many ministers in the court have already submitted to Li Chengde.
But after Li Chengde escaped, he was dominated by the six princes, and these people and the six princes naturally looked down on them, but it was an eventful time now, and after a turmoil in the DPRK and China, there was no suitable person to take their place at the moment, but it was a matter of time before they were replaced.
These ministers were also uneasy, for fear of angering the six princes.
Lord Fang became the prime minister, replacing the original position of Li Chenggong, and Xuanguo Gong is still Xuanguo Gong.
The six princes handed over sixty percent of the military power in the court to Xuanguo Gong for deployment.
In this way, if Xuan Guogong wants to rebel, it can be said that it is very easy, and it stands to reason that the six princes have taken a very big risk by doing this.
But looking around at the current situation, except for Xuan Guogong, there is no military general who can suppress the previous rebels.
You must know that there were many people who followed Li Chengde to rebel before, far more than the 40,000 people brought by Yuan Feng. There were also many people who acquiesced in Lee Sung-deok's move.
And those people who hold the military power all the year round, want to suppress the lord in one fell swoop, or eliminate them, no one with enough authority can do it.
And this person is only Xuan Guogong.
As we all know, the Xuanguo Mansion is a century-old family, and it has been loyal to the country for so many years.
The emperors of all dynasties have special trust in the Xuanguo Mansion, and the Xuanguo Mansion has not failed to live up to the emperor's trust, take this incident as an example, if it were not for Nie Jingyang, it would be wishful thinking for the six princes to regain the throne.
In other words, according to the original situation, if this Nie Jingyang wanted to be the emperor, the six princes would have no choice, and the civil and military officials would have no way to refute it. But when the Xuanguo Mansion broke through the imperial city, it supported the six princes to ascend to the throne as soon as possible.
It can be seen that the Nie family doesn't care about the throne at all, only about loyalty.
It is no wonder that the six princes trust Xuanguo Gong so much.
In addition, the six princes also attributed the death of the emperor, the Empress Dowager, Prince Lian, and the crown prince to Li Chengde, if it weren't for him, they wouldn't have died.
Originally, the ministers didn't believe that it was the Queen Mother who killed them, but now that the six princes said this, they instinctively believed it, after all, they were all a family, how could they kill each other?
But there are also a small number of people who doubt, but they only doubt it from the bottom of their hearts, these six princes are the emperor, and what he says is the truth.
Lu Qingrong didn't have any meaning to this, because although the death of Prince Lian and the crown prince of the emperor was not directly related to Li Chengde, after all, it was because of him that he died, and the queen mother was forced to burn herself to death by them.
