Chapter 213: Falling Stars (1)
"If you dare to touch a single hair of her, I will make you repay it a thousand times over!"
Shen Xiao's voice sounded extremely light at the moment, as if he was not at all, but what was hidden in this strange calm was a terrifying killing intent.
"Just you?" The emperor sneered, with a look of disdain on his face, "Even if my situation is not good at this time, I am still the master of this land, and what about you?" If I hadn't brought you up in the first place, you would have stood in front of me with this qualification as an alien wild dog? ”
"You're right!" Shen Xiao's eyes were a little confused, and the long sword in his hand pointed at the emperor again, "In the past, I had no eyes, but I was blinded by a momentary desire for power, and I couldn't distinguish right from wrong, so I cocooned myself and ended up like today, but do you really think that your throne is very stable?" It was also you who sent people to blockade the four cities, so you must have also blocked the major events of Asari from the four cities! ”
The emperor squinted his eyes slightly and stared at Shen Xiao tightly, as if he wanted to see a hole in him.
Shen Xiao sneered contemptuously, "You definitely didn't know that what you thought was a seamless plan would be ruined by an inconspicuous little person, and even now you were kept in the dark, right?" ”
Having said this, Shen Xiaoruo looked at the emperor with deep meaning, and suddenly smiled, "On the night when Luyang was burned down, there happened to be a family going out, and when they went back to Luyang, they happened to see the team transporting supplies arson everywhere in the city, so they quietly escaped and left in a hurry before you blocked Luyang, guess what?" ”
Shen Xiao's words made the emperor's face suddenly tighten, and then a bad premonition suddenly came up from his heart.
"As a result, they spread the arson of the officers and soldiers, you say how big the Xianyu country can be, once this matter spread, the people only said that the plague was raging, the emperor in the name of transporting supplies to connive at the Qin mission to burn the city and try to stop the continuation of the plague, within seven days, the matter was transmitted to the palace, the ministers urgently asked to see the emperor, in order to argue the truth of the news and specially sent people to the suburbs of Luyang City, as a result, they really saw Dugu Ao's people guarding outside Luyang City, You must know that this incident represents not only that the four cities are controlled, but also shows that Dugu Ao is plotting against him, and of course the ministers are worried! But how did they know that the emperor would turn them away at such an emergency juncture, and announced to the public that they were seriously ill and recovered, and no one would see them! The ministers really have no choice, in order to ask for the determination to see the table, they have to kneel in front of the gate of Ganquan Palace, this kneeling is four days, among which several elderly officials even fainted because of physical exhaustion, but even so, the gate of Ganquan Palace is still closed, the ministers see this, their hearts are immediately very sad, thinking that at this time, it coincides with the invasion of thieves and the war is continuous, and the border suddenly has four cities imprisoned by the ministers, it is really internal and external troubles, but the emperor as the king of a country actually ignores the government at such a critical moment, Regardless of the life and death of the people, the six ministries naturally have to uphold the concept that the country cannot be without a king for a day, and when it is decided, it will be decided."
Having said this, the emperor finally saw a hint of coolness in his slightly cloudy eyes.
Shen Xiao smiled with great satisfaction, "The emperor should know that in the event of a war, if the monarch continues to ignore political affairs and disappears for no reason, according to the ancestral system, the ministers of the six ministries have the right to nominate a prince as the new emperor and hold an enthronement ceremony to announce the world, right?" ”
After Shen Xiao said it deliberately, the emperor finally panicked.
It was also at this moment that the emperor suddenly understood that the words of the soldier who had his head cut off turned out to be because he had been pushed off the throne? That's why those rebellious soldiers kept saying that they were following the emperor's will.
But how can this be? He cherishes that position more than anyone else!
"What? Your Majesty, the Emperor, what's wrong with you? Why is your complexion so ugly? ”
Shen Xiao looked at the emperor's expression and smiled slightly.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, and suddenly seemed to have lost his mind and gone crazy, ignoring the long sword that Shen Xiao was pointing at in his hand, he suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Shen Xiao's arm tightly with wide eyes, and shouted, "I don't believe it!" Who do you say? Who would dare to take my place? Who would dare to assert it? I'm going to kill them! You say, who are they! ”
"The Emperor might as well see it with his own eyes!" Shen Xiao impatiently pushed the emperor away, and seeing that his face was pale, he returned to sneering, "By the way, if the Emperor Taishang wants to go and see, he also needs to have the life to return to Qi City, right?" At present, the new army is like a tiger and a leopard, and it is a sure thing to occupy the four cities, if the emperor does not leave as soon as possible, not only will his life be in danger, but even the bad things he has done before will be known to the world, and then do you guess you can still sit firmly in the position of the emperor? ”
"You dare to threaten me? Do you believe that I can make the woman hanging on the tower die right away? The emperor gritted his teeth and clenched Shen Xiao's clothes.
At this moment, there was a bright yellow "meteor" in the sky behind Shen Xiao that roared through the vast night sky, and fell heavily in the inner city of Lianshuo, with a loud explosion that stopped the clouds, followed by someone crying and howling in the skyrocketing fire.
And Shen Xiao looked at the fierce emperor with an expressionless face, the firelight was faintly shrouded in the bodies of the two, and a slight "crackling" sound could be heard from a long distance, and then I saw a large area of sparks fluttering in the wind like fireflies under the gray sky in the distance, which added a lot of desolate colors to the whole night.
"Heh" Shen Xiao smiled dumbly, and looked straight into the other party's pupils with a little more mockery in his eyes, "I'm afraid the Emperor hasn't figured out the current situation yet, right?" You say that if I kill you quietly here, and then destroy the group of debris below, who can threaten me? ”
"You dare!"
"You can try!" Shen Xiao suppressed the last smile on his thin lips and replaced it with a gloomy expression, "It's just that you also have to think clearly, if I want to kill you with my martial arts, I will definitely make the group of people waiting for your order unconscious, do you think you can still stand here and argue with me at that time?" ”
The emperor's expression moved slightly, and the hand that grabbed Shen Xiao's shirt also hung down involuntarily.
However, this is a trick to confuse Shen Xiao.
In order to let Shen Xiao relax his guard, the emperor deliberately made a lost virtue, and took advantage of Shen Xiao's inattention to run to the wall, trying to make a note with the soldiers under the wall.
Fortunately, Shen Xiao's eyes were quick, and when the emperor's shout was still in his throat, he was dragged by Shen Xiao from behind, and quickly covered his mouth and put a long sword on his neck.
"Emperor Taishang, do you know why your imperial power has been hollowed out?" Shen Xiao's fingers covered the emperor's mouth fiercely, and no matter how hard he struggled, he didn't let go at all, "Why don't I tell you, it's all because you are stupid and ambitious!" You say, if you had informed the people below just now, if they had killed Su'er, would you still have the life to get out of here? If you have sent yourself into a dead endgame, why do you have to put up useless resistance? ”
After that, Shen Xiao raised his head with cold eyes and said to the people on the roof, "I let you lurk in Lianshuo City in order to be used by me at a critical moment, not to let you come to see the excitement, you know?" ”
The people on the roof looked at each other, and finally jumped down from the roof and took the unwilling emperor from Shen Xiao's hands.
Then, in the sight of everyone, Shen Xiao turned around sharply and strode in the direction of the wall.
"Su'er, don't be afraid, I'll save you."
A hoarse voice came overhead.
I opened my eyes slightly, and I felt that something had slipped down the top of my head and flowed through my eyebrows into my eyes, stinging my eyeballs with pain.
Then I realized that the thick rope that tied me was being pulled up little by little.
At my feet stood a group of soldiers with feathered arrows, looking left and right, with a confused look on their faces, as if they didn't know what was going on.
I didn't know until I was completely pulled up the wall that it was Shen Xiao who pulled me up, and in addition to him, there were about a dozen black-clothed people who were also armed with bows and arrows standing on the wall.
"Shen Shenxiao?"
After I made an extremely ugly sound, Fang suddenly realized that his throat was dry and painful at this moment, as if it was about to crack.
Shen Xiao stared at me tightly, with a pair of dark eyes with deep distress and remorse, and then raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat on my forehead, and said earnestly, "Why are you sweating so much?" Does it hurt? ”
With that, the long eyebrows on the top of my head were deeply locked, one hand supporting my body, and the other hand carefully untying the thick ropes on my hands that were almost connected to my flesh and blood.
The moment he peeled the thick rope off my wrist, the piercing pain made me gasp, "Hiss! ”
"I'm sorry! Am I hurting you? Shen Xiao retracted his hand in a panic, looking at my eyes with a lot of guilt, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for coming too late." ”
I shook my head and chuckled.
Shen Xiao lowered his eyes, and saw that the two bloody cuts on my wrists that were strangled by the thick rope were slowly dripping blood, and layers of mist rose in the pupils of this big man's eyes, as if something was about to fall in the next second.
Seeing this, I raised my hand trembling in pain and gently dropped it on the back of his hand.
When he raised his eyes to look at me, he shook his head and signaled that I was okay.
"You think that's the end of it?"
A cold voice came from behind me, and I raised my tired eyes slightly to look over, only to see a man in a black cloak being held by two men in black one left and one right, and at this moment he was arrogantly raising his chin to look at me and Shen Xiao.
Wonderful!
