The moment Xue Chong knew that his Xuanli had been abolished, he had already realized that something was wrong. The strong desire to survive and his cleverness in the moment of life and death drove him to use all his strength to avoid Chang Xi's next killing move at that moment.

He struggled to throw himself back into the group, and was caught by two henchmen, who quickly took the seriously injured and dying Xue Chong away and firmly protected him.

"Kill!" Chang Xi ordered in a deep voice, he didn't pay attention to Xue Chong anymore, but turned around, picked up the unconscious Si Chen from Huo Wu's arms, and walked towards the main hall.

Hundreds of people in black, their eyes were sharp and angry, and the momentum they exuded seemed a little strange to outsiders, as if they had crawled out of hell, just looking at it, it made people feel terrified.

Xue Chong knew that the general trend had gone when these people fell from the sky, and he couldn't win.

"Withdraw!" He gave the order with his last breath, and then passed out.

After the army he brought was ordered, they began to retreat frantically, but this was not the most embarrassing, nor the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing was that when they began to retreat, those men in black were like man-eaters in transit, pounced on them, as if they were crushed, and wherever they were crushed by the hundred-man army, only fragments of corpses remained, and rivers of blood flowed.

Xue Chong's henchman Liu Qi was shocked.

These are simply not people, what kind of monsters are these, so violent and bloody, outrageous!

In the end, the people brought by Xue Chong didn't even dare to resist, ran desperately, and fled.

Because the forbidden army was tricked when Si Yukun rebelled, there were big loopholes in the guards of the palace tonight, and the hundred people who barely survived fought with their lives to finally escort Xue Chong out of the palace and disappeared into the night, and they didn't know where to go.

Zhang Zhe led the Beijing garrison camp to search the whole city overnight.

Soon, Xue Chong's rebellion became known all over the city.

Teahouse.

Shen Run was the only one who was still drinking tea in the private room in the middle of the night, and the teahouse was not closed without closing, and for him to be brightly lit, Qin Ji was still playing the piano. Suddenly, there was a noise on the street downstairs, Shen Run was slightly stunned, stood up and looked downstairs, and saw many people wearing Beijing garrison uniforms running down the street, knocking on doors door to door, as if searching.

Shen Run looked surprised.

Si Qi and Si Ba were also alarmed, put down what they were holding, and looked down the window.

At this moment, Fu Heng rushed up from downstairs with a sword, ran to Shen Run, and shouted in his mouth:

"Your Highness!"

Seeing that Si Qi and Si Ba were there, he hurriedly stopped talking.

"Say!" Shen Run intuitively felt that something important had happened, and shouted with a calm face.

Fu Heng glanced at Si Qi and Si Ba, and reported in a low voice:

"Back to His Highness, the anti-thief Si Yukun was successfully captured, and His Royal Highness the Phoenix Lord has killed Si Yukun. It's just that later, Xue Chong suddenly led people to set fire to the palace, and he had the audacity to rebel, but fortunately, Chang Xi's son arrived in time and stopped Xue Chong. Now Xue Chong is nowhere to be found, and the Praetorian Guards in the palace don't know what is going on, and when the fire ignited, they were collectively poisoned and unconscious, and His Royal Highness the Phoenix Lord was also affected by the smoke of the fire and fainted......"

Shen Run's heart sank, and before Fu Heng finished speaking, he didn't use the stairs, he jumped directly from the third floor, and the cavalry downstairs had arrived, he grabbed a horse, shook the whip fiercely, and ran in the direction of the palace.

……

Shen Run galloped to the front of the palace, and he had never liked sweat, and a layer of sweat was already pouring out of his body.

The men of the Jingshu camp took over the guards of the palace, and when they saw him return, they opened the city gate and let him go.

Shen Run urged the horse and galloped in the direction of the Phoenix Palace, and when he came to the Phoenix Palace, the beautifully lit Phoenix Palace was as quiet as usual, as if nothing had happened.

The palace people stood outside the palace gate, and when they saw him return, they saluted solemnly.

Shen Run didn't ask them, got off his horse, walked straight into the dormitory, and bypassed the screen to the inner hall.

Si Chen was lying on the bed and had woken up.

Chang Xi sat on the edge of the bed.

In the dormitory, only Chang Xi was waiting alone, and Huo Wu and Si Shi were not there.

Chang Xi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, glanced at Shen Run, but he didn't stand up.

Shen Run swept across Si Chen's pale face and did not come closer.

"There you go." Si Chen said to Chang Xi, his voice was as clear as usual, but it was much weaker than usual.

Chang Xi got up, answered a soft "yes", walked out, and glanced at Shen Run without any content when he passed by Shen Run.

After Chang Xi left, Shen Runcai walked slowly from a distance, and he was much calmer now than when he was rushing.

He stood in front of the bed, there was no place to sit in front of the bed, and sitting on the edge of the bed seemed too intimate, now was not the time to be intimate, but standing like this seemed very unkind to her lying on the bed, he muttered for a moment, walked away from the bed, and sat down on the couch not far away.

Si Chenqing looked at him coldly.

Shen Run didn't avoid her gaze, he looked into her eyes, looked straight at her for a while, and clarified softly:

"I didn't expect him to do such a thing, I kept telling him, even if he can't be loyal to you from the bottom of his heart, at least, don't do what he can't do."

Si Chen looked at him and didn't say a word.

"But anyway, it's my responsibility for this to happen, I'm biased towards him, trying to pull him out of his decadence as soon as possible, but I ignore many things and put you in danger." Shen Run continued.

Si Chen looked at him, still speechless.

Shen Run didn't say anything else, it had already happened, and if he continued to say it, it was like defending himself, he had nothing to justify, and it was his responsibility for such a thing to happen.

"How's your body? Has the Imperial Doctor seen it? He asked softly, with a hint of concern in his tone.

Si Chen stared at him expressionlessly for a moment before she spoke, and she said lightly:

"It was a palace maid of the Phoenix Palace who burned incense in the incense burner that should not be burned, and the combination of the medicinal properties of the incense and the poisonous mist ignited by the fire made people lose their mystical power. But this is temporary, I am almost recovered, Huo Wu and Si Shi are still a little close, and the palace maid has been killed by the cane. It seems that there are still people in this palace who are loyal to the former country, and there are still people in the Longxi country who are bloody. ”

Her words were like a mockery, and the mockery was very sharp, like a knife cutting into Shen Run's heart. Shen Run didn't know what to say in response to her, he thought she was probably angry, he had no position to argue, he could only accept her anger, no matter what she said, he should listen in silence.

"The Praetorian Guards in the palace, presumably the same, really passed their hands and feet in the previous scene, and then encountered poisonous smoke, and the whole army was wiped out." She said this calmly, as if the previous passage was not a mockery, but a statement of facts.

She explained to him in such detail that it was not in keeping with her usual taciturn nature.

Shen Run's eyebrows narrowed.
