On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the sky is slightly sunny.

As dawn broke, everyone in the palace was already busy.

It is a major event for the emperor to go out of the palace to worship, and the place where the emperor has passed is unprecedentedly pompous, the people stop, and the city gate is very lively all the way.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, the neat footsteps of the Praetorian Guards marched in an orderly manner, and the crowd of onlookers automatically gave way.

The road opener shouted loudly: The royal car travels, and the idlers retreat!

King's Landing is the fourth prince of the Daduan Dynasty, and the emperor is the most trusted royal brother, so it is naturally arranged after the royal driver, followed by the palace concubine and the hundred officials.

Mu Qingyan naturally sat in King's Landing's car, watching the crowd surging on both sides, congested for a while.

Although the team encountered congestion, the march was still very smooth until ......

"The emperor's body is not suitable for traveling long distances, why should he approve of the emperor's travel?" Mu Qingyan watched the crowd surging and gathering in front, and then pushed and bumped again and again, not knowing what was going on.

King's Landing also noticed something unusual, squinted his eyes, stared at the surging crowd somewhere, and said in a deep voice, "What happened in front of Zhang Heng?"

Zhang Heng appeared in front of the car and said, "If you go back to your master, it's just that someone on the road ahead is blocking the road because of the excitement, and Zhang Qing has already stepped forward with the Praetorian Guards to check." ”

"How long will it take to get to the Imperial Tomb?" Hearing this, King's Landing raised his eyebrows slightly, not having much of a fluctuating emotion about such an unexpected event, but just asked lightly where he was.

Zhang Heng bowed to the King's Landing in the carriage and replied, "Master, there is still half an hour to reach the Imperial Tomb." ”

"Well, you go down!"

"Yes, master!"

Mu Qingyan heard Zhang Heng's voice retreating, looked sideways at the changing scenery outside the window, and said lightly: "This is not like your approach, if you don't like to come, according to your temperament, you should definitely not come." Could it be that something important will happen here today?"

"Can't this king be a filial son?" said King's Landing, who heard this, and said with a rare joke.

However, his expression was not so playful but indifferent, and his eyes flashed with unpredictable emotions.

"You're not!" Mu Qingyan said bluntly, King's Landing is definitely not the kind of person who will be restricted by rules.

Otherwise, how could the four princes be moody, kill people like hemp, and kill people like cutting turnips?

Whoever said that it was a filial son and a virtuous grandson, she believed it, but when she said that King's Landing was, she didn't believe it, because King's Landing was not a pedantic person.

Sacrificing the ancestors of the deceased is just a kind of sustenance, a kind of nostalgia for the ancestors of the living people who are still alive in the world.

Sacrifice is just one of the ways, and there are many ways to remember the ancestors, not necessarily to sacrifice in such a grand way.

Such a scene is just a moment for the royal family to show some privileges, and by the way, to set an example for the world to know and that's all.

As the words fell, the carriage stopped.

Zhang Heng appeared outside and said in a deep voice: "Master, princess, has arrived at the imperial tomb." ”

At this time, Gonggong Gui also came to the carriage, leaned over and saluted Jun Lin and Mu Qingyan who walked out of the carriage, and said, "Four princes, four princesses, the emperor asked the old slave to invite the two to the front sacrifice position. ”

Jun Lin bowed slightly, replied lightly, and said, "Hmm!" took Mu Qingyan's hand and followed Gonggong Gui.

Mu Qingyan saw that the imperial mausoleum in front of her was very large and magnificent, which was very similar to what she imagined, and the imperial mausoleum of the royal family was buried with the founding ancestors of the Daduan Dynasty. King's Landing told her that coming here on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year to worship is to let future generations not forget this book, but also to pray for the peace of the country and the people, and the wind and rain......

"What are you looking at?" King's Landing asked, noticing Mu Qingyan's curious look as she looked around.

Mu Qingyan saw that the emperor was already in front of the sacrificial platform, the queen mother, concubines, and princesses were all standing behind the emperor, and on the sacrificial platform, there was a wizard-like person reading something.

"Has it already begun?" is similar to what she saw in the TV series.

"It's starting!" King's Landing looked ahead along Mu Qingyan's line of sight, and said softly, "Let's just stand here, it's a good sight!"

Mu Qingyan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, stopped, looked at Gonggong Gui who was still walking in front of her, and said, "Gonggong Gui is still leading the way in front, and our position should not be here." ”

"This king likes to be here, and no one dares to say a word. King's Landing replied lightly, and then, pulling Mu Qingyan to stand here like this.

When Mu Qingyan heard this, she glanced at him, and said in her belly: "What kind of strength is tsundere, it's not like you can be reincarnated! Look at the reincarnation in the house of the mountain villager, can you still be arrogant?"

"I'm scolding this king again!" King Lin looked at Mu Qingyan, who was staring at him, and said lightly.

A trace of annoyance flashed in Mu Qingyan's eyes, she pursed her lips and said, "No!" If it weren't for the fact that this was an important sacrificial ceremony, she really didn't want to come with him.

"Duplicity, your dissatisfaction is written on your face. ”

"Wouldn't I be happy to have such an expression?"

"Okay, if you're happy. ”

“......”

When Gonggong Gui came back to his senses and looked back, the sacrifice had already begun, and he didn't dare to come forward to persuade him, so he could only retreat to the side.

"I pray for peace in the New Year, good weather and good weather......"

Suddenly, for some reason, someone shouted: "Protect the emperor......"

Everyone started to mess up and run in all directions.

The location of Mu Qingyan and King's Landing just avoided all the chaos.

Seeing the Praetorian Guards rushing to the front of the emperor's location, Mu Qingyan glanced back at King's Landing, but saw that he was not surprised at all, as if everything in front of him had already been known.

At this time, out of nowhere, soldiers dressed in Praetorian Guard clothes rushed in the direction of her and King's Landing, carrying swords.

Seeing this, Mu Qingyan hurriedly grabbed King's Landing's hand, wanting to pull him around to avoid it, but who knows, like this, King's Landing was unmoved.

I saw that King's Landing raised his hand and made a movement in mid-air, and countless dark guards flashed around him, and they were annihilated against the Praetorian Guards who came to slash and kill.

Those swords seemed to have eyes, and they slashed directly at the necks of the Praetorian Guards, and a steady stream of Praetorian Guards fell to the ground.

Mu Qingyan looked at the scene in front of her, then looked at King's Landing, and asked softly, "You already knew!"

Knowing where there would be danger in front of the emperor, knowing that he couldn't go to the position that had been arranged a long time ago.

"Hmm!" King's Landing replied lightly, but his eyes were coldly looking at the killing in front of him.

"Then why don't you tell the emperor, don't you want the emperor to die?" Mu Qingyan asked as she looked at the emperor who was hugged on the sacrificial altar and his face was already pale.

When King's Landing heard this, he replied: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, and if you don't pretend to be in the trap, how can you lead out the people behind it?"

When the words fell, Mu Qingyan was about to say something......

There was a flash of silver light, and an arrow glowing with cold light flew towards King's Landing's life.

Mu Qingyan was taken aback, and was about to reach out to block it, but the arrow had already been knocked to the ground by Zhang Heng and broken into two pieces.

"The subordinates are late, please punish the master!" Zhang Heng turned around and knelt in front of King's Landing and said.

King's Landing looked cold and said, "Get up, how are things going?"

"Master, it's done. Zhang Heng stood up and followed aside.

Mu Qingyan then remembered that Zhang Heng seemed to have disappeared since they got off the carriage, and it turned out that he had been sent by King's Landing to do a secret operation.

"Why did these Praetorian Guards rebel, and who was the leader of the rebellion?" Mu Qingyan watched the two sides fight, fighting to the death, and in an instant, corpses were all over the ground.

"Soon, you'll know!" King's Landing's eyes shot somewhere, and his voice was a little cold.

Mu Qingyan followed his line of sight, only to see that Jun Yan Lie didn't know when he was riding a horse and watching everyone, and the bow and arrow in his hand showed that he was the one who was about to shoot King's Landing just now.

The person next to Jun Yanlie was......

I don't know how much strength it took for Mu Qingyan to stabilize her trembling body.

"Don't go!" King's Landing grabbed Mu Qingyan's hand tightly and said in a deep voice.

Mu Qingyan turned her head fiercely, with tears in her eyes, and gritted her teeth and said, "Didn't you say that you knew earlier? Didn't you take precautions? Then why, my grandmother was caught by Jun Yanlie?"

Seeing the white-haired old man being held in front of the horse by Jun Yanlie's people, her heart was impatient and scared.

Jun Yan Lie looked at Jun Lin and Mu Qingyan, his face was full of murderous aura, he raised his hand and pulled the bow and arrow, and shot it out with three aimed at Jun Lining.

King's Landing was forced to let go of Mu Qingyan, and then knock out all those powerful arrows.

However, in such an instant, Mu Qingyan had already killed a bloody path with a dagger in her hand, and Zhang Heng followed closely with the secret guard, guarding tightly.

Seeing Mu Qingyan so strong, Jun Yanlie was not surprised at all, glanced at the old lady Ye who was under control beside her, and shouted loudly: "Mu Qingyan, if you go further, this prince will let someone cut your grandmother." ”

Mu Qingyan reacted extremely quickly, immediately stopped her pace, her eyes were firmly fixed on the sharp blade on Old Madam Ye's body, and she said coldly: "If you hurt my grandmother, I will definitely make you unable to do anything." ”

When Jun Yan Lie heard this, a strange smile appeared on his face, and he said, "After today, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it!"

Mu Qingyan: "......" A pair of eyes just stared at Mrs. Ye, who looked a little wrong.

"What did you do to my grandmother?"

Jun Yan Lie said: "It's just a little bit of medicine, so that we can ensure that Old Madam Ye will not be hurt more." Mu Qingyan, you should thank this prince for his kindness. ”

"Phew!" Mu Qingyan didn't appreciate his affection at all, and said: "You catch an old and weak woman and child and threaten us, and you get the throne, you are not afraid of being scolded by the world." ”

There are more and more people in the army, as if they can't finish the fight at all, and in such a situation, no matter how strong the martial arts are, they can't stand the large number of people, and they consume physical strength so that they can win more than they can.

"Old Madam Ye is not an ordinary woman or child, besides, the people here today all died because of an accident, how can this prince be scolded by the world if he came to save people!" Jun Yan Lie said with an arrogant expression, and even more vigorously let the army behind him go forward and kill.

Zhang Heng took the secret guard to protect Mu Qingyan in the middle, swords and swords, and flesh and blood flew sideways.

Mu Qingyan looked back and saw that Jun Lin was killing the enemy with his secret guard, and then said fiercely: "Jun Yan Lie, don't you think that you can win in this way? ”

When Jun Yan Lie heard this, he sneered and said in a cold voice: "Who wouldn't say big words, no matter how high your martial arts are, no matter how strong your ability is? This prince's army is enough for you to consume all your strength, and when the time comes, it will be your death." ”

As long as Jun Lin is killed, the crown prince will not be able to become a climate at all, and Jun Qingzhen will not be bothered by this waste.

As for his father, the emperor and the arrogant, he has long been hopeless, as long as he is under house arrest in the palace and let himself go.

It is impossible for the charge of killing his brother and father to fall on his head, he killed a rebellious minister and a thief! Uncle Sihuang had a bad reputation, and if he died, the people of the world would thank him a lot.

"Ahem......"

Old Madam Ye woke up at this time, let out a few weak sounds, and slowly opened her eyes.

"Grandmother!" When Mu Qingyan saw it, her heart tightened, and she wanted to go forward, but Jun Yanlie asked her to put a sharp blade on Old Madam Ye's neck, and she could see a trace of blood.

When Mrs. Ye heard Mu Qingyan's call, she was shocked at first by the scene in front of her, then regained her composure, and said in a tight voice: "Xiao Yan'er, don't be afraid, grandmother is fine." ”

Jun Yanlie saw the interaction between the two, and said coldly: "Old Madam Ye is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows go, and she can still be calm in the face of such a scene, and the younger generation admires it." ”

Old Madam Ye slowly got up, looked at him calmly, and said, "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, I don't know why you treat the old body like this, the old body doesn't seem to have done anything to offend the third prince, right?"

Jun Yan Lie looked at her condescendingly and said, "You have not offended this prince, but your grandson is different, he holds the most military power in the Daduan Dynasty and obstructs the path of this prince. Why don't you ask the old lady to help and let Mu Rin hand over the military power. ”

"It's really hard to say, I'm old, and the work is too heavy to do. His Royal Highness the Third Prince, I have found the wrong person!" said Old Madam Ye calmly.

When Jun Yan Lie heard this, his expression turned cold, and he said, "Are you toasting and not eating and drinking?"

Old Madam Ye thought about it very seriously and replied, "If you can, you don't want to drink both wines." ”

"Then don't blame me!" Jun Yanlie made a hands-on gesture towards the guards who grabbed Old Madam Ye.

Mu Qingyan saw a sharp blade shining with cold light slashing directly at Old Madam Ye's body, her eyes widened in fright, staring at it deadly, and she opened her mouth and shouted, "Don't ......"

However, the knife still fell on Old Madam Ye's body.

Seeing this, Mu Qingyan's body staggered, and she almost fell to the ground, holding the dagger so hard that she couldn't kill Jun Yanlie immediately.

In the next second, a dramatic picture appeared, and when the knife fell, Old Madam Ye should have had a painful expression, but there was no restraint on her body.

The guards who were originally suppressing Old Madam Ye killed another guard, and then, the people around Jun Yanlie began to be killed.

Jun Yan Lie was also plotted by the people behind him, got off the horse and joined the battlefield, wanting to catch Old Madam Ye again but had already missed the opportunity, so he could only watch Old Madam Ye walk towards Mu Qingyan's side with white eyes.

"Grandmother, how are you?" Mu Qingyan saw that the person escorting Mrs. Ye back was Zhang Qing who had changed her clothes, and there were a lot of secret guards around her.

Old Madam Ye said softly: "Silly girl, grandmother's old bones are fine, and they haven't hurt anything." ”

Zhang Qing bowed down and pleaded guilty, and said: "What happened suddenly just now, the subordinates didn't intend to scare the princess, but also asked the princess to atone for their sins." ”

"Thank you for saving my grandmother. Mu Qingyan didn't blame, and thanked her sincerely.

Hearing this, Zhang Qing raised his head and said, "Princess, this is what the master ordered his subordinates to do, and the subordinates just did their part. ”

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan was silent.

"Let me ask you, did the prince already know that Jun Yan Lie was going to arrest my grandmother, so he asked you to pretend to be Jun Yan Lie's guard in advance?"

When Zhang Qing heard this, he was about to speak but was interrupted by Mrs. Ye.

"Yan'er, you misunderstood King's Landing, it was I who didn't follow King's Landing's prompts to dodge and let Jun Yanlie have a chance. I'm tired of Zhang Qing coming to save me!" Old Madam Ye thought of something and said in a deep voice.

"Grandmother means that King's Landing has already informed you?"

"Yes!"

"Then, grandmother, why were you caught by Jun Yan Lie?" Mu Qingyan looked at where Jun Lin annihilated the rebels, and then, her brows furrowed.

Old Madam Ye was silent for a moment, still reluctant to speak, and a pair of shrewd eyes also fell silent.

The smell of blood was getting stronger all around, and more and more people were dying.

Mu Qingyan saw that there were not many people around King's Landing, and was afraid that King's Landing would have a case, so she said to the people around her, "You go to protect the prince." ”

"Please atone for the princess, the master said, let the subordinates' main duty is to protect the princess. When Zhang Qing heard this, he immediately replied, his eyes vigilantly guarding the Quartet.

All the secret guards tightly guarded Mu Qingyan and Old Madam Ye in the center, leaving no gaps.

It was too late, it was too soon, and it seemed that the enemy on King's Landing would never be finished, and as if they would never finish fighting, they had just knocked down one piece, and then another.

King's Landing was already stained with blood, and it was impossible to tell if it was the blood left over from King's Landing.

Mu Qingyan was very nervous when she saw it, she had to protect her grandmother here, and she was worried about King's Landing.

Several times she saw the sword about to slash at King's Landing, and her heart was so frightened that it was like suffocating several times.

"Zhang Heng, Zhang Qing, help me protect my grandmother, I'll help the prince!" said that, the person had already crossed the protective circle.

Zhang Heng, Zhang Qing didn't have time to stop it at all, so he could only tightly protect Old Madam Ye in the protective circle.

"Be careful!"

Hearing Mu Qingyan's voice, King's Landing turned sideways, only to see Mu Qingyan holding a dagger and neatly killing a person who attacked him.

"Why are you here?" King's Landing was not happy, but looked at Mu Qingyan who came here with some displeasure.

Mu Qingyan's movements in her hands did not stop, killing one enemy after another with bad intentions, until the people around her killed the enemies outside, and then said: "I don't want to watch you fight alone, I am terrified to see it, so I am willing to come over and accompany you." ”

"Did you know that this is dangerous?" said King's Landing with a frown.

"I just know the danger, that's why I'm here. Mu Qingyan held the dagger tightly in her hand, for fear of falling off, because this was her sharp weapon to live and a weight to save people.

Mu Qingyan looked at King's Landing but saw him pointing his sword at herself, and quickly swung it down......

"Ah......h

Jun Lin's eyes turned cold, his face sank, and the long sword in his hand suddenly slashed and killed the soldiers who rushed up behind Mu Qingyan with a single swing.

Before she had time to say a word, Mu Qingyan joined the war with a dagger in hand.

King's Landing swept away everyone who came to attack, and watched Mu Qingyan put down those fierce soldiers without weakness, and complicated emotions flashed in his eyes.

He jumped to her side and said, "Don't fight, take advantage of the enemy's weakness to follow, and go quickly." ”

Mu Qingyan took a breath, looked around vigilantly, and asked, "What about you?"

"How can this king leave if he is the manager. King's Landing said in a deep voice.

"Then I won't leave!" Mu Qingyan insisted: "I will hold out with you until the arrival of the Slow Army." ”

Hearing this, King's Landing said in a deep voice, "Mu Rin will soon arrive with the army, you take your master and wife first." ”

"Don't!" Mu Qingyan waved her hand to block a sharp blade, and her words were as neat as her movements.

King's Landing had no choice but to kill the enemy with her, and the two of them tacitly handed over each other's backs to each other......

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Mu Rin to appear with his army and encircle and suppress those hidden rebels.

Jun Yan Lie was gone, fighting alone until he was finally captured.

Mu Rin walked in front of the emperor under the opening of the soldiers, knelt down, and said: "The minister is late to save the driver, and I ask the emperor to forgive the sin!"

"Excuse me, get up, Mu Rin, you came in time. "The emperor was supported by Gonggong Gui, and his expression was not very good.

Jun Yanlie was arrested, and all his henchmen knelt down together.

The emperor naturally paid attention, after all, the rebel was his son, or the most beloved third prince.

"Why do you want to do this?" the Emperor asked as he took a step forward and looked at Jun Yan Lie, who was kneeling on the ground.

Among the princes, Jun Yan Lie was the most vigorous and the most intelligent and capable, and his gloom was inevitably favored by him and used as an example alone.

"Why?" Jun Yan Lie smiled coldly and said, "Father, why do you say? Obviously, I am better than Jun Yuan in all aspects, but because I am not a descendant, I can't inherit the throne, I don't." ”

When the emperor heard this, he asked with a heavy expression, "How long have you been plotting about this matter?"

Didn't it start when I heard that he was seriously ill?

"How long has it been plotting?" Jun Yan Lie repeated before he said, "This time is really a bit long, you won't want to know, Father." ”

At this time, Jun Lin stepped forward to look at Jun Yan Lie, his eyes were pale, and he said: "Whoever dares to calculate this king, this king will never give him good fruits to eat. ”

When the emperor saw Jun Lin coming up, his eyes became even heavier, and then, the gaze cast on Jun Yan Lie became more complicated and difficult to understand.

Hearing this, Jun Yan Lie suddenly looked up at King's Landing and said, "That's why I was going to kill you from the beginning, but unfortunately, I didn't kill ......."

"You treat this king like this, how can this king escort him back to the imperial city without reciprocation!"

The Emperor didn't say anything, just watched quietly, because, he knew that those who offended King's Landing would never be merciful.

"Why don't you see Concubine Xiao?" Mu Qingyan was very curious, Concubine Xiao loved Jun Yan Lie so much, why didn't she intercede here this time?

"She's in the palace, waiting for us!" King's Landing said lightly, the color of his eyes indeed unpredictable.
