The imperial capital of Chu, which is the political center of Chu and the largest city of Chu, is also one of the nine relics of antiquity.

Over the past 5,000 years, through the unremitting efforts of the successive kings of the Chu State, the Chu Emperor has become the most prosperous city in the entire Canglong Continent.

Not only that, because King Chu Heng tosses some activities from time to time, such as state banquets, birthday banquets, and wedding banquets, there are dozens of things; whenever this kind of banquet is held, King Chu Heng likes to have fun with the people, not only amnesty the world, but also reward the world.

Therefore, as the imperial capital at the feet of the king, it naturally became the most direct beneficiary, and it is precisely because of this that the Chu Emperor Capital has become the city with the largest population concentration in the entire Canglong Continent.

The people here come from all over the world, and they are directly stationed in the imperial capital with the customs and customs of different countries, and it is also because of them that the information transmission speed of the imperial capital has become the fastest city in the entire Canglong Continent.

However, the recent imperial capital is not very calm, the undercurrent is surging, the reason is that the temper of King Chu Heng has changed recently, moody, every time there will be a minister who is dismissed from his official position, or even executed;

For a while, everyone in the palace was in danger, and the solemn atmosphere came directly from the palace, affecting the entire imperial capital.

Therefore, the most discussed topic among the people of the imperial capital recently is the reason why King Chu Heng's temperament suddenly changed.

In addition to the common people, the same was true for the officials of the imperial capital.

Chen Chong was the city gate commander stationed at the north gate of the palace, and he was not a big official, but he had a heavy responsibility, not only responsible for the security of the north city gate, but also patrolling the distance from the north city gate to the inner city of the palace.

It's just that today is destined to be an unforgettable day for Chen Chong, because not long ago, he received a task that was enough to affect his life.

"General, Concubine Zhen is coming towards the north city gate. On the city tower, Chen Chong looked at the scenery outside the palace with his back on his back, and a soldier in armor ran up to report it.

Chen Chong sighed when he heard this, Concubine Zhen Guifei was a concubine who was about to serve King Chu Heng today.

At the same time, she is also the sixth concubine who wants to escape.

"Invite Concubine Zhen back. Chen Chong said lightly.

"Yes!" the soldier replied.

Chen Chong glanced up at the sky, his eyes full of loneliness.

Unlike the people outside the palace, Chen Chong knew very well why King Chu Heng's temperament had changed drastically, and the fundamental reason was because King Chu Heng had gone crazy.

Since the state banquet in May, King Chu Heng has begun to feel a little abnormal, until the last time Chu Sheng came back, King Chu Heng has become what he is now.

So in fact, the dark tide in the palace is far more exaggerated than the conjecture outside.

This sign of King Chu Heng can basically determine that he will not live long, which is great news for the sons of King Chu Heng.

King Chu Heng has been in power for too long, more than three hundred years, and the hair of those princes and others has turned white......

Especially the eldest prince, who is more than two hundred years old this year, but his cultivation is two big ranks lower than his father, if he just survives his father to take the throne, he may have no hope in this life.

Now that my father has finally gone crazy, he is naturally ecstatic.

The rest of the princes were the same, one by one they began to think about how they could defeat their brothers and successfully ascend to the throne, how could anyone care about why King Chu Heng went crazy.

"Alas......" Thinking of this, Chen Chong couldn't help but sigh.

"Kick ......" There was another rush sound, and a soldier ran up to the city tower and reported: "General, Concubine Zhen is dead!"

"What!" Chen Chong was shocked and said sharply: "Didn't you ask you to invite the concubine back? Who let you do it?"

King Chu Heng's killing of the concubine is a family matter, and if Chen Chong kills the concubine, it will be a funeral, isn't this fucking pit him?

"No, General. The soldier knelt down on one knee and replied, "Your Majesty killed it with your own hands, and Your Majesty is here!"

When Chen Chong heard this, his face froze, and he sighed in his heart: I didn't expect to come so soon.

Kicking the soldiers away, Chen Chong strode towards the city tower.

Ten miles east of the North City Gate, a group of soldiers knelt on the ground, and not far from them, a middle-aged man in a golden dragon robe held a heavy long sword, with blood dripping from the tip of the sword;

This is the current king of Great Chu, King Chu Heng.

"Absconding without permission, damn it!" King Chu Heng looked at the corpse on the ground with cold eyes, his face was gloomy, and his hair was scattered at will, looking a little scary.

"Dada~"

Chen Chong arrived with his soldiers, knelt down a hundred meters away from King Chu Heng, bowed to the ground, and said, "The last general is too late to save the car, which has frightened Your Majesty." ”

At this time, it must not be mentioned that Concubine Zhen escaped from the palace without authorization, and she must be charged with assassinating the king, so that King Chu Heng will not be affected.

King Chu Heng turned to look at Chen Chong, who was a hundred meters away, and said in a deep voice, "Why are you kneeling so far? ”

Cold sweat broke out on Chen Chong's head, and his hands couldn't help but start trembling at this moment.

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Chen Chong could only agree stubbornly, but he was also a chicken thief, so he didn't stand up and run over directly, but knelt on the ground and moved over step by step.

King Chu Heng frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Chen Chong's approach, his tone was gloomy, and he said, "Are you very afraid of me......"

"The last general will not dare. "So far, Chen Chong has no choice, his heart is crossed, and he directly got up and strode towards King Chu Heng.

At the same time, the spiritual power in Chen Chong's body also began to rotate, although King Chu Heng had the cultivation of the Spirit Emperor realm, but if he really wanted to kill him, Chen Chong could only choose to resist, and his loyalty and courage did not grow on him.

The atmosphere was very depressing, and in addition to the sound of the cold wind whistling in the huge square, there was only the sound of Chen Chong's stepping on the stone bricks.

King Chu Heng watched Chen Chong walking towards him like this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing an evil sneer.

"As a city gate commander, you actually connived at my concubine to escape from the palace without permission, what should you be guilty of?"

When Chen Chong heard this, his heart sank, and he knelt directly on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "The last general did not let any lady go out of the north city gate, and asked Your Majesty to be clear." ”

"If you dare to quibble, you should be damned too!" King Chu Heng's face was furious, and he raised his heavy sword and rushed towards Chen, who was kneeling on the ground.

Chen Chong was shocked, he didn't expect King Chu Heng to kill him so decisively, he panicked, and subconsciously pulled out his long knife to resist.

"Bell~"

A crisp sound shook the hearts of countless people.

The soldiers and palace maids and eunuchs who were kneeling on the ground all around looked at Chen Chong in disbelief, and the meaning in their eyes was very clear: how dare he block the sword of King Chu Heng!

King Chu Heng was shocked back by the power of the shock brought by Lin Chong's subconscious resistance, and the heavy sword in his hand almost didn't come out of his hand.

Chen Chong looked at the long knife in his hand with a puzzled expression, a little incredulous that he actually blocked a sword from King Chu Heng.

"Rebellious ministers and thieves, be killed!" King Chu Heng also didn't expect that someone would dare to resist him, and he was immediately furious, raised his sword and rushed towards Chen again.

Facing the thorn of King Chu Heng, Chen Chong remembered that task again, and fell into a struggle in his heart.

Between thoughts, seeing King Chu Heng stabbing again, Chen Chong didn't dare to drag it out, and poured eight points of spiritual power to meet it with a knife, and the remaining two points were ready to escape from the palace after being shaken back.

"Bell~"

Another crisp sound, only this time, there were two more different sounds.

"Boom~"

"Poof~"
