Chapter 16: The Battle for the Succession
Entering the front hall, Luo Yuanshan and his wife couldn't help but shush again when they saw their eldest daughter and son-in-law.
Feng Qingxun said to Luo Yuanshan: "Dad, Lian'er has asked you and my mother to take care of it these days, and I can't leave it alone at night." ”
Luo Yuanshan nodded and said, "You go, be careful not to let people find out." ”
Feng Qingxun looked at Luo Shuilian, she looked at her husband gently, and gave silent support.
Luo Shuiyi took advantage of her father's attention to her sister and child, pulled Hua Lingyu aside and asked in a low voice, "Did you stumble on Xiao Qi again?" ”
Hua Lingyu's eyes were cold, and she nodded and said, "I stole a talisman for Feng Qingzhi, so that I can mobilize half of Shangjing's troops." ”
"Oops! You really are! Luo Shuiyi kicked him angrily, and said angrily: "Do you know that what you did would make this battle even more tragic?" Did you know that more people would die? The most important thing is that the situation of the brother-in-law will be very dangerous! ”
Hua Lingyu said in a deep voice: "I only care about you!" There was not the slightest remorse between the words.
Luo Shuiyi sighed: "Demon, I don't want to quarrel with you again." ”
A flash of panic flashed in Hua Lingyufeng's eyes, and he stared at her tightly and said, "If you don't like it, I'll go get it back!" "I really want to go out.
Luo Shuiyi hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Do you think you can easily get it back now?" Did you know that it can be dangerous? is so reckless, why is it becoming more and more like a child? ”
Hua Lingyu looked at her and said seriously: "As long as it is what you want, I will not care about the cost." ”
Luo Shuiyi clenched his hand and sighed: "I really can't do anything about you, you can't even get angry when you call me like this." ”
Hua Lingyu also held her back tightly, and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, I'll send someone to protect Feng Qingxun." ”
"What are you two talking about?" Mrs. Luo suddenly interrupted: "Why do I look like I'm making trouble? Yi'er, are you bullying Yu'er? ”
Luo Shuiyi pouted and said, "I bullied him? Can I bully him? He's so capable, it's good not to bully me! ”
Hua Lingyu smiled helplessly and rubbed her forehead, and said to Luo Yuanshan: "We are talking, send someone to protect ...... Well, brother-in-law's business. ”
Luo Yuanshan nodded and said, "Your brother-in-law is smart and should be able to protect himself, so if he is in trouble, he doesn't have to deliberately protect him." ”
Luo Shuiyi smiled and groaned: "Don't bother, there is a senior brother who will fight." Right, big brother? She looked at Hua Lingyu with a threatening look in her eyes, and her voice was still soft: "It just so happens that I want to catch up with my sister these days, senior brother, you have to help my sister take care of my brother-in-law!" ”
Hua Lingyu sighed, glanced at her sadly, and resigned herself to Feng Qingxun as a bodyguard.
Luo Shuilian looked at Hua Lingyu's handsome and upright back with infinite resentment, pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother-in-law is so gentle. ”
Luo Shuiyi immediately replied: "My brother-in-law is more gentle, I have been in Dali Temple for so long, but I see that my sister has a ruddy complexion, a strong body, and the baby is very good, so I know that my brother-in-law must take good care of my sister." My sister and brother-in-law are as deep as the sea, they raise their eyebrows, they are in deep love, and the husband and wife both return their homes, which is really envious of others! ”
Luo Shuilian blushed and scolded with a smile: "Little sister's mouth is really unforgiving!" ”
For a while, the family of four chatted and was so unhappy.
Contrary to the warmth of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the main road in Shangjing was full of murderous atmosphere.
Feng Qingzhi launched a mutiny that night, and he took two-thirds of Shangjing's troops, and with the support of nearly one-third of the ministers of the court, he surrounded the palace.
There are two gates in the Tianli Imperial Palace. Bai Rin led the Imperial Forest Army to guard the east gate, which was close to the moat, and the terrain was steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. General Qi and Dali Siqing led part of the men and horses to attack from the east gate. And Ouyang Luo took most of the troops to meet Feng Qing on the narrow road at the West Gate.
The battle was as everyone expected, unusually tragic.
Bai Rin was better, he took advantage of the terrain and faced a relatively small number of enemies, so it was relatively easy to deal with.
But Ouyang Luo obviously didn't have such good conditions as him, the twelve palace gates had now been breached, and when he was in a hurry, Situ Yan led people to arrive and released a huge dazzling firework into the sky.
"Left Protector, Master Chu Shaozhuang will arrive soon, until then, we must guard the West Gate." Situ Yan wielded a long sword and ruthlessly harvested his life.
Ouyang Luo didn't speak, he didn't have the kung fu or strength to speak now. It's just a mechanical wielding of weapons to wipe out all those who come close. The armor on his body was bloody, and he couldn't see the original color anymore.
Another palace gate was broken.
Ouyang Luo's injuries on his body were not as good as Lisuo, first he started with Qing Han, and then he kept dealing with the people sent by Feng Qingzhi to assassinate Feng Qingxun, and the wounds healed even more slowly, and now he couldn't hold on.
He was stabbed again. Ouyang Luo frowned, quickly turned around and killed the person who attacked him. However, more people pounced, and Ouyang Luo was a little powerless for a while.
"Left Protector!" Situ Yan screamed worriedly and fought hard.
But someone arrived at Ouyang Luo's side one step faster than her. In a few ups and downs, a large number of enemies around Ouyang Luo fell.
"Xiao Han!" Ouyang Luo looked at the black-clothed young man who was full of murderous aura in disbelief, a little dumbfounded.
After putting down another group of people, Qinghan turned around and hugged Ouyang Luo, and said with tears in his eyes: "Luo, you are injured." Xiao Han is so sad. ”
Ouyang Luo patted him on the back and said, "I'm fine, Xiao Han don't worry, it's just a skin injury." ”
Qinghan let go of him and said seriously: "Whoever makes Luo injured, I will call whoever dies!" Then the little idiot's momentum changed, and he instantly turned into a dark night death, harvesting souls with an expressionless face, leaving no living mouth and not a drop of blood wherever he passed.
Situ Yan looked at the young man in black in a daze. He looked very young, sixteen or seventeen years old, a little thin but powerful. The eyes are big, clean and well-behaved, and it is very distressing when it is quiet. But when it comes to killing......
Situ Yan was shocked. How can a person have such two completely opposite sides? Who would have thought that a well-behaved and harmless teenager in the last second could directly transform into a murderous and unblinking Grim Reaper in the next second? I have to say, the world is really amazing.
With the protection of the light cold, Ouyang Luo was much more relaxed, but the enemy was outnumbered, and they were still defeated.
Finally, when the tenth palace gate was breached, there was a shout of killing from the rear.
The two brothers, Chu Yanmo and Chu Yanxi, took the elite soldiers that the old emperor had secretly cultivated for many years and outflanked them from the rear of Fengqingzhi.
For a while, Feng Qingzhi was wrapped in dumplings.
"Damn it! Where did this army come from? Feng Qing said with hatred, seeing that victory was in sight, but the duck flew like this, and he was really unwilling.
Taichang Siqing persuaded: "His Royal Highness the Prince, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, I think we should retreat first, preserve our strength, and make a comeback." ”
Feng Qingzhi looked at the sudden change in the form of the battle situation in front of him, Ming Jin withdrew his troops, and retreated to the Prince's East Palace, where there was a tunnel he had already dug and could lead to the outside of Shangjing City.
And Feng Qingxue and Concubine Xian had already been secretly taken out of the palace by him and waited there. As long as he retreats to the East Palace, he will definitely be able to leave Shangjing with the two women he cares about, waiting for an opportunity to make a comeback.
