At the end of the twenty-third year of Qianfeng, the old emperor, who was suffering from illness in his later years, finally came to the end, and before his death, he reluctantly passed the position of the monarch of Yelan Kingdom to the fifth son of the emperor, Mu Yunqing.

As for why he was reluctant and had to pass it on, it became a pain in the old emperor's heart.

During the Qianfeng period, the eldest son of the emperor was appointed as the crown prince, but the prince was really not angry, relying on his identity to do mischief, and before he succeeded to the throne, he couldn't wait to win over the courtiers, and he was greedy for beauty and not doing his job, and there was a faint and incompetent energy in the bottom. In order to appease the dissatisfaction of the courtiers, the old emperor had no choice but to depose the prince, who was not even sitting on the bench of the East Palace, and threw him to the remote city of Connecticut to be an idle prince.

The boss is out of play, and the talent of the second child is revealed, and the competition is really angry, but if the competition is too much, it will become a big rebellion. This guy not only formed a party for personal gain, but also tried in vain to collude with foreign enemies to frame the hussar general, such a wolf ambition, even if the old emperor felt sorry for his son, he had to give an explanation. The second child with obvious ambitions finally died under his own ambitions.

And the third prince, when he was a teenager, had an emergency, and his bones were cold for several years, so he naturally couldn't make it.

At this point, from the courtiers to the Li Min, they all felt that the four princes, who had both ability and political integrity, and were leisurely and calm and indisputable, would inherit the throne, but before the old emperor died, he jumped over directly and passed on to the fifth prince Mu Yunqing.

If you want to say that this Mu Yunqing is light, I don't know if he was bullied too hard by his brothers and sisters when he was a child, the whole person is full of soft and glutinous energy, no calculation, no vision, if it weren't for the fact that the sixth son of the emperor was really young and overwhelmed by the responsibility, it is estimated that the old emperor would not throw the burden to him.

The old emperor retired after success, closed his eyes and didn't care about his life, but the new emperor was not so relaxed. At first glance, it seems to be a smooth year, but secretly, it is indeed unprecedented turmoil......

Winter is coming to spring, flowers are blooming, and the year is approaching, and several heavy snowfalls have made this winter even colder. Under the illumination of a round of bright moonlight, the white snow was coated with a layer of silver light, and the field of vision became much wider.

"Drive!" A swift sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a faint sound of bells could be faintly heard, crisp and beautiful.

A red steed galloped from a distance, and the person on the horse's back was very tightly shrouded in a black cloak, and the figure was small, it was actually a woman. Although she was a woman, her fingers holding the reins were very slender, but the whip was wielded very favorably, and the horse ran so fast, but her body was still steady.

Suddenly, a piece of hemp rope suddenly pulled out of the white snow, and it was too late to stop, the woman decisively patted the horse's back and jumped up, and the moment she landed, the tall horse was gorgeously tripped and rolled forward, lying on the ground neighing constantly, and I don't know where it hurt.

At the same time, the originally smooth and smooth snow suddenly broke open, and more than 20 black-clothed people came out from underneath, holding swords and surrounding the women, looking ready to attack.

The woman lifted the brim of her hat, revealing an excessively cold face. A pair of eyes as bright and clear as stars had a cold light at this time, and they calmly glanced around, and the hand that was blown red by the cold wind stretched out to his waist, and a soft whip slowly hung down. A pair of small and delicate silver bells hung on the handshake part of the soft whip, which did not match much no matter how you looked at it, but it could be seen that the owner attached great importance to it.

The woman sneered: "His Royal Highness King Kang is very well-informed!" So you know what I'm going out for? ”

Before the words fell, the soft whip had already struck the man in black closest to him with the sound of breaking through the sky.

The more than two dozen black-clothed men didn't talk nonsense, and they all besieged the woman with murderous intent, and they didn't seem to intend to stay alive.

Although the woman's body is flexible, it is still a little difficult to use the sword, and after dodging in the siege for a while, she finally realized that something was wrong - the former prince who was sent to Kangzhou by the first emperor is now the former prince, and he must not have this ability to raise such a group of dead soldiers with amazing lethality! Sent people to surround and intercept her, is it King Kang?

The sound of the murderous sword was mixed with the sound of a soft whip breaking through the air, and the two sides were fighting fiercely, but in fact, the woman was already at a disadvantage.

The blood stained the cloak, the wind blew, and the whole body was cold, the woman didn't seem to know the pain, there was still a sneer on the corner of her lips, and she said lightly: "Hey, hey!" I said you, even if you want to kill me, let me be a ghost under the knife who only understands a little, right? Who sent you? ”

The last sentence was drunk, and she shook out a sharp dagger in her left hand like a trick, separating the sharp sword that stabbed from behind, and the dagger was so sharp that it cut the blade and went straight to the neck of the man in black.

Blood stained a piece of snow, but the remaining black-clothed people had no intention of retreating, and the attack became more and more fierce, and the woman still resisted with a soft whip in one hand and a dagger in the other.

At the moment of human life, she still thought with emotion: It's just a small case, why do you have to put your life into it? If I really die here today, my unreliable eldest brother Xiao Yixuan is only afraid that he will laugh off his big teeth first and then mention the pain of losing his sister.

She Xiao Yuexi has always been ruthless in the fight, no matter how seriously she is injured, she will never give up until the moment of death, and when she was about to drag her half-dead body bones to die with them, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

I don't know which way the gods are coming tonight, and the people who walk at night are all dressed in black, and they all cover themselves tightly, as if they are afraid of being recognized.

If there is any difference between the man who came on horseback, it may be that he is more tall and taller, and the long sword in his hand looks sharper and more extraordinary...... Later, Xiao Yuexi found that the biggest difference between this man in black and the rest of the men in black was that he seemed to be on his side.

As soon as he appeared on the stage, he picked up the weapons of several black-clothed people and rushed straight to Xiao Yuexi, although he didn't show his face, he refused to hide his awe-inspiring murderous aura at all.

He turned his head as if looking at Xiao Yuexi, and only turned his head after a while, and whispered with a heavier killing intent: "You are looking for death!" ”

Xiao Yuexi frowned slightly, this voice, low and deep, strange and familiar, I don't know why, a face suddenly jumped out of her head, and she was immediately vetoed.

Was she beaten stupid? How could that person show up in the middle of the night in the middle of the night and fight with people? Xiao Yuexi felt funny, shook her head and shook off the weird idea, and turned to look at the battle situation.

Because of this man's joining, those men in black no longer have time to deal with her. There seemed to be a black wind with a cold light blowing on the white snow, and blood would be seen everywhere it passed, and in a moment, none of the more than 20 people in black were spared, and all of them were cleaned by this "black wind".

Even Xiao Yuexi, who has been through a hundred battles, couldn't help but be secretly frightened, but immediately, she was worried: "I said hero, you are too ruthless, and you don't leave a single living mouth?" ”

The hero didn't speak, put away his sword and walked in front of Xiao Yuexi.

Feeling that the other party had no malicious intent, and seeing that the other party had helped him solve the trouble, Xiao Yuexi instinctively became a little less vigilant against him, seeing that he was not going to take off his scarf to identify himself, Xiao Yuexi was not reluctant, and after thanking him, he leaned down to check the corpses.

Behind him, the hero's low voice sounded: "Your injury." ”

"Hmm...... Don't worry. Xiao Yuexi answered perfunctorily, but there was no pause in his hands, and he searched several corpses in a row and didn't find anything to prove his identity. The back socket is filled with poison sacs, and it is a dead man......"

Before Xiao Yuexi could think carefully about the origin of these dead soldiers, a dull pain came from her neck, and a pair of warm and powerful hands caught her collapsed body.

"You ......" Before losing consciousness, Xiao Yuexi vaguely asked a trace of fragrance, and before he could think about why this fragrance was so familiar, the person had completely fainted.

The mysterious hero wrapped Xiao Yuexi in his cloak, carried her on his horse, and rushed into the city in a hurry.

The general's mansion was full of people on their backs, only Xiao Yuexi was unconscious, half-asleep and half-awake, realizing that he was lying on a familiar couch, and a familiar voice beside him gave this order softly.

It's my sister-in-law...... With acquaintances around her, Xiao Yuexi felt more at ease, and the last trace of consciousness also relaxed, and she fell into a coma again.

The door was pushed open, and the person who came was still wearing armor, and he broke in all the way, with a rare anxiety on his handsome face.

The woman in front of the couch frowned, turned around and blamed: "Brother Hui, stand far away, beware of passing the cold to the little sister." ”

Xiao Yixuan hurriedly stood farther away, craned his neck and looked at the couch: "How is she?" ”

"The doctor said that it was all skin trauma, that is, the blood flowed a little more, and it was tiring all the way, so it would be fine to rest." Ji Bingxin replied calmly, and added: "That one is still waiting in the study, Brother Hui will go see him first, I am guarding here, don't worry." ”

Xiao Yixuan nodded, looked at Xiao Yuexi's pale little face again, and then went out.

Den.

The hero who sent Xiao Yuexi back stood by the window, and only turned around when he heard the sound and looked at Xiao Yixuan who pushed the door in. "Brother Yiwei is back?"

Xiao Yixuan leaned over to kneel, but the hero hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and said indifferently: "Without outsiders, we don't have to hold on to these false courtesies." What did Brother Yiwei think about my previous proposal? Tonight's event can only be regarded as their appetizer, and there may be some trouble waiting for them in the future, I can't get out every time, Brother Yixuan should plan early! ”

After a long silence, the mysterious hero did not urge, and sat down on the Taishi chair on the side, closing his eyes and resting.

With a deep sigh, Xiao Yixuan walked to the other side and sat down, and said in a deep voice: "There are too many facts to deal with next, and I can't protect myself, sister...... I'll bother you. And ......"

The mysterious hero was very understanding, and said seriously and solemnly: "Brother Yixuan, don't worry, I will protect her for a day if I live, you just need to take care of yourself." As for Mrs. Sister-in-law...... I've already thought of a way out, and I'm just looking forward to the day when I never get started! ”

Two more sighs, both worried about the uncertain future. And Xiao Yuexi didn't know what kind of bloody rain he was going to face......
