Chapter 1: The Capture of the King
At the beginning of the founding of the country, the crisis was full of dangers, the four sides were constantly in turmoil, but there were few generals, and several expeditions led to the city of Kyoto hanging in the air.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the fireworks everywhere have not yet been extinguished, and the emperor's fourth brother and nine kings in the fiefdom led his troops into the city!
The mighty formation, the high Nine Shadows Battle Flag, the Nine Shadows King and his son sat high and looked at the people all over Kyoto, and when they were arrogant, a scholar suddenly came out of the layers of the crowd and drank at the two of them!
"What a person who is not filial and disobedient, the first emperor rewarded you with a fief far away in Sichuan City, and ordered you to die and not return to Beijing, but now you take your son to swagger into Beijing when Kyoto is empty, there must be a plan!"
As soon as the word "conspiracy" was blurted out, a swift arrow flew from a distance, steadily stabbing the reader's throat, and sealing the throat with an arrow!
Seeing this, the people scattered everywhere, and several women shouted loudly that the Nine Shadows King had rebelled, and the voices came and went!
And this King of the Nine Shadows is a person who doesn't care about fame, he just looked at the emptiness of Kyoto, and the brave and warlike protector Chu Ying is now far away on the border, so he waved his army into Beijing with the intention of taking away the throne of his mixed brother!
He Sichuan City army bravely, quickly attacked the mansion of several officials, the smell of blood everywhere was stronger than the nostrils, several officials saw their wives, sons and daughters were killed and humiliated, a few people with a strong character killed themselves on the spot, and some people were willing to be with them.
The faint crimson blood stains on Kyoto's bright red lanterns grew thicker and thicker, and the subordinates of the Nine Shadows King soon found the most magnificent building next to the imperial city...... Chu Ying's Protector Mansion!
Unlike the mansions of those officials, Chu Ying's mansion is still hung with red lanterns, and the door is also open, and people can be faintly seen singing and dancing inside?
Several generals glanced at each other, what the hell is this going in? Or not to go in?
After all, Chu Ying's reputation is known to everyone in the world, he is a character who is one enemy and ten, his wife has a difficult birth, so he left only a daughter, and Chu Ying's protector has never let outsiders see the appearance of her daughter.
In addition, another famous person in the Chu family is Chu Ying's sister-in-law Chu You, who has never married, is extremely intelligent, and has a reputation as a female Zhuge in Dayu!
Such a household, these soldiers who grew up in Sichuan City are really a little afraid.
At that time, in the Protector's Mansion, Chu You was holding a big bowl of fruit and smiling, "My niece is really stunning, this man's outfit is worn on his body, but he looks a little like Pan An!" ”
Standing in front of her is Chu Ying's only daughter, Chu Mu, who is only thirteen years old, and her father has been raised by her aunt Chu You since she was a child.
Chu Mu dragged the red silk around his waist, picked up the red tassel gun on the ground, waved it a few times, and said with a smile: "Auntie, the longbow is still suitable for me!" ”
Chu You smiled and took down a long bow from the shelf behind him, wiped it lightly with a handkerchief, did not raise his eyes, and said in an extremely gentle voice: "The fast horse has already left Beijing, Mu'er, you just need to remember to protect Your Majesty's safety, your father will definitely rush back in less than three quarters of an hour, and then your aunt will be waiting for you in the carriage outside the imperial city!" ”
Chu Mu greeted softly, one stepped up and got on the horse, and a black horse was not afraid of the smell of blood in these places at all, and under Chu Mu's order, he quickly rushed towards the few rebels at the door.
Chu Mu carried the long worker on his back, held the long sword in his hand, and walked away, and in a trance, the four heads in front of the gate of the Protector's Mansion fell to the ground with a gurgling, and the blood stained Chu Mu's body, she lowered her head and sniffed and shook her head, and entered it from the back gate of the imperial city.
This imperial city is filled with the shouts of the maidservants, the running of the eunuchs, and the gloomy atmosphere after the killing.
She just rushed into the emperor's residence to protect His Majesty's safety and wait for her father's early return!
When she arrived at the Emperor's residence, the Empress had been insulted, a white silk hanging from the beam, the disheveled Mother of a Country was hanging from it, her eyes were purple and cracked, and her lips were the black and red color of the clotted blood that had been bitten out.
Those who humiliated her were smiling happily, and a shirtless man was still gesturing with his hands.
As soon as she held the longbow behind her, she was about to launch it when she was suddenly held down!
"No, now it's a surprise to this brother!" The man who spoke was in a white shirt, and he smiled when he saw such a bloody scene, and a child beside him was not even up to the man's waist!
"Who are you? Eunuch in the palace! Chu Mu asked, and at this time, the child was very unhappy when he heard that he was called a eunuch.
His eyes glared at Chu Mu, and the corners of his mouth lowered slightly: "This is the emperor's third son, Gu Yan!" ”
When Chu Mu heard this, his eyes widened even more, his mother-in-law was humiliated, and his father did not know his life and death, but this person was hiding in the dark with a fan, with an attitude that this matter had nothing to do with me? Sure enough, he is a person who has been played by the official 100 times a year!
Just thinking about it, suddenly there was a miserable scream from the emperor's residence, one after another, Chu Mu was about to go forward, but he heard this Gu Yan laugh and said: "This poisonous snake is really vicious and abnormal, I don't know if the people inside are dead!" ”
"If you stay a little longer, your old father, who is more than half a year old, will really die!"
Chu Mu said, Gu Yan nodded and said seriously: "I suddenly forgot, my father is also an unfrightened master!" ”
As he spoke, the fan in his hand was slammed shut by him, Chu Mu thought he was going to go, but he heard him shouting: "Bold thief, hiding in the shadows, with a longbow, is it trying to block the great cause of the prince?" ”
Hiding in the shadows with a longbow?
Chu Mu looked at it fixedly, wasn't he talking about himself? This thief, she thought about it, but she saw that the traitors were already coming towards her, and then she turned around and took her bow, killing two birds with one stone.
Holding a long sword in front of the battle, although the brave man had great strength, he was too carried away just now, and at this time, he was hurt by Chu Mu and his morale was greatly damaged.
One of them struggled and slashed at Chu Mu's right shoulder with a sword......
"Childe, this ...... Shall we do a favor? The little guy next to Gu Yan asked, but Gu Yan lowered his head and smiled.
Waving his fan, he looked at the person who was fighting and said helplessly: "If she can't resist these people, she is not worthy of being her father's daughter!" ”
"Childe! You just glanced at her, and you could see who her father was. ”
"If you don't save my father, why are you arguing with me here?"
At this time, the man saw that Chu Mu had been injured, and suddenly laughed, and was about to stab Chu Mu's black good horse, just when his sword was close to the good horse.
The horse slammed into him, Chu Mu grabbed the reins fiercely, and when the horse turned around, she turned over and drew her bow and shot the man under the horse.
After such a fight, the thieves saw her bravery and strength, and they retreated backwards, and at this moment a thief came out of the house.
Holding the emperor with one hand, he said loudly: "Your emperor is here, if you go any further, I will kill him!" ”
"I don't have to go any further!"
Hearing Chu Mu say this, the man immediately said, "Since this is the case, don't get off your horse and surrender!" ”
As he spoke, Chu Mu drew his longbow and shot at the man, as well as the emperor who dragged him out.
"Such an inferior human skin mask, have you seen my aunt's craftsmanship in vain all these years?" When the thieves saw their general being shot, they scattered in an instant.
Chu Mu rushed into the house, but saw a room full of people who were bitten to death by poisonous snakes, poisonous snakes spitting letters, and a delicate little girl sitting in place, playing the flute.
"Sister is a step late, just now Gu Yan has already led someone to rescue the emperor!"
