Late at night, in the imperial city death row, Yan Zheng was held alone in the deepest part of the death row, since he was personally escorted here by Yin Mo, he kept scolding and shouting for nearly two hours, disturbing the entire cell that could not be quiet all night.

It was the dead of night at the moment, and Yan Zheng seemed to be a little tired after tossing and turning around to no avail, and the cell was finally quiet. After tossing and turning with Yan Zheng for most of the night, the several jailers in charge of guarding him also felt a sense of sleepiness at this moment, and then fell asleep on the table one by one and took a nap. After a while, a series of heavy snoring echoed outside the cell.

The jailer can naturally sleep lightly when he has nothing to do, but Yan Zheng is not so comfortable, at this moment, I saw him curled up in the corner of the dark and damp cell, a gorgeous brocade robe was also torn by the city soldiers who escorted him along the way, his hair was not neat at all, and his pale face was hung with pieces of sludge that came from nowhere. After a series of catharsis such as sorrow, the current Yanzheng looks a little decadent, how can he see that people are not like people and ghosts, and they are full of embarrassment like a lost dog.

Perhaps because of his advanced age, Yan Zheng looked extremely tired at this moment, a pair of cloudy old eyes stared at the mottled wall like this, his hands were tightly clenched together and hugged to his chest, because the cell was too cold, his body was still trembling slightly, looking at his thoughtful appearance, he didn't know what he was thinking.

"King Saint-West!"

Just as Yan Zheng was curled up in the corner, there was a sudden gloomy and deep shout outside the cell, this person's voice was deliberately low, and his tone was equally cold and terrifying.

Hearing the voice, Yan Zheng's body first slammed into a wit, and then he hurriedly raised his head and looked out, and a pair of cloudy old eyes instantly burst out with a touch of doubt. I saw that outside the cell, a burly figure wrapped in a black coat was standing there straight, because the light in the cell was very dim, so when Yan Zheng squinted his eyes and wanted to see this person's face clearly, what came into his eyes was only a blurry black shadow under the cloak, and he couldn't see this person's face clearly at all.

"Who are you?" Yan Zheng asked with a slight frown, "Why are you here?"

In the face of Yan Zheng's questioning, the person outside the prison did not open his mouth to answer, but just stood there quietly and motionless, although he could not see this person's face, Yan Zheng could still clearly sense that this person must be looking straight at him.

"Huh, who?"

Several jailers who were sleeping on the table were suddenly awakened by Yan Zheng's voice, and one by one they quickly picked up the steel knives on the table, and surrounded the black-robed people with fierce faces. One of the jailers at the head looked the black-robed man up and down, and then shouted: "What a bold man, you dare to trespass on the death row of the Imperial City, I think you are impatient......"

"Whew!"

Before the jailer's words fell, the black-robed man shot directly without warning, only to see that his movements were as fast as lightning, and before the jailers could exclaim, they suddenly felt a burst of extremely strong energy directly swept over their bodies, and then their feet slipped and fell to the ground repeatedly, a few of them passed out directly, and a few of them lay on the ground and cried and howled, but the black-robed man rushed forward with lightning speed to reward a few palms, flashing and moving like ghosts, and in the blink of an eye, they took the lives of those jailers。

Seeing this scene, Yan Zheng was first startled, and then a touch of excitement instantly surged into his heart. Since the person who came killed the jailer, nine times out of ten he came to save himself, this was the first thought that Yan Zheng had after witnessing all this.

"Are you a person sent by Qishan?" Seeing that this person had a crisp result from the jailer, Yan Zheng couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope in his heart, and then he moved his body forward slightly for half a minute, and asked with longing, "Or is it sent by the Xuan Sect?"

"Will anyone else but them want to save you?" the black-robed man said in a non-yin tone through the cell door as he stood back in front of the cell, as if he was chatting casually with Yan Zheng. While he spoke, his hands couldn't help but grasp the iron chain that locked the prison door, and then his arms pulled hard, only to hear a crisp sound of "click", and the iron chain with the thickness of his arm was actually pulled off by this person, and with the sound of the iron chain falling to the ground, the originally closed cell door was also opened by him.

Seeing the prison door wide open, a flash of ecstasy quickly surged into Yan Zheng's eyes, only to see him hurriedly stand up, and then patted the dust on his body in a panic, and walked towards the black-robed man outside the cell without hesitation, and did not forget to thank him: "Thank you for saving me, this king has long known that whether it is the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce or Xuanzong, they will never sit idly by and ignore this king's trouble! haha...... He Yan Chong thought that he would be able to restrain me by locking me up, it was just a fool's dream!"

"Really, it seems that the King of the Holy West is really well prepared!" said the black-robed man with a smirk, and as he said that, he also sideways to make way for Yan Zheng, "It seems that it is really not easy to completely defeat you!"

"Haha......" Yan Zheng had a sense of excitement for the rest of his life at this moment, the smile on his face had hardly closed since the prison door was opened, he walked straight to the black-robed man, and asked with a smile on his face, "Say, who sent you? Where is your master to receive this king?" At the same time as questioning, Yan Zheng also subconsciously raised his eyes to look at the black-robed man's extremely tight face that was covered by the hat, and when he finally saw this person's face clearly through the dim candlelight in the cell, the smug look that had just bloomed on his face completely solidified in an instant.

Because the face that was revealed under this hat at this moment was none other than the Protector of the Sacred Domain who personally caught the turtle in the urn today, Han Xiao.

"Han Xiao, how could it be your ......" As soon as Yan Zheng saw Han Xiao, he subconsciously wanted to retreat, but before he could take his steps back, Han Xiao's powerful hands were already clutched on Yan Zheng's shoulders, only to see Han Xiao's two arms slightly upward, Yan Zheng's body was actually picked up by him, as Yan Zheng's feet gradually left the ground, his voice gradually changed from surprise to screaming in pain, "What do you want to do? This king is the Holy King of the Imperial Family, you can't be disrespectful to me......"

"In a few hours, you are indeed the Holy King of the Imperial Family, but now you are just a prisoner of the rank full of sins!" Han Xiao stared at Yan Zheng's eyes with a cruel smile, Han Xiao was burly and Yan Zheng was relatively short, but at this moment, Han Xiao had already raised Yan Zheng's body to the level of his own, "For a person who is waiting to die, what kind of respect and disrespect can you talk about?"

"You...... What do you mean by that?" Yan Zheng, who was in a hurry, flashed his eyes vigorously, he didn't dare to look directly at Han Xiao's tiger eyes, because at this moment, Yan Zheng's heart had been weak, "You can't kill me, I'm a relative of the royal family......"

"The royal family is indeed not subject to capital crimes!" Before Yan Zheng finished speaking, Han Xiao was the first to sneer, "So Your Majesty can't do anything about you, because there is no way to condemn you in public, after all, the dignified King of the Holy West actually wants to rebel, and once this matter spreads, it will be extremely detrimental to the face of the royal family." But you said it yourself just now, if you are just imprisoned, then Your Majesty will not be able to restrain you forever, after all, King Shengxi has many helpers outside, and he doesn't know when he will let the tiger return to the mountain. Therefore, in order to avoid the situation that King Shengxi just said, and in order to completely eradicate His Majesty's worries, and at the same time, in order to avoid being criticized by all the people for undermining His Majesty's justice in life, Han came here tonight...... Send the King of the Saints West on his way!"

"You...... Are you really going to kill me?" Yan Zheng's face turned pale at the moment, his body trembled even more, and his mouth trembled and threatened, "You dare to assassinate the Holy King of the Imperial Family, you ......"

"It's not an assassination!" Han Xiao shook his head slightly, and at the same time, he slowly looked at the corpses of several jailers lying on the side, and then said with a sneer, "It was the King of the Holy West who tried to escape from the prison first, and killed the jailer later, so he accidentally died in the chaos." ”

"You want to frame ......"

"Shouldn't the King of Saint West have seen this kind of thing a long time ago?" Han Xiao slowly let go of his right hand and only carried Yan Zheng with his left hand. Then he stretched out a finger in his right hand and gently touched the center of King Shengxi's eyebrows, at this moment Yan Zheng seemed to have realized the tragic fate he was going to face next, so he struggled desperately and shook his body, but unfortunately in Han Xiao's hands, Yan Zheng was like a thin chicken cub and couldn't make any waves at all, "What you committed is a heinous capital crime, from the moment you decided to rebel, you should have expected that there would be today." Everything is as you said, and it is precisely because you know how to play tricks better than Your Majesty, so you must die even more, otherwise Your Majesty will never be at ease! How can you allow others to snore and sleep next to the couch, no matter how big the Holy Realm is, there can only be one Emperor, I think the King of the Holy West understands this truth better than anyone else!"

"I just want to get back what belongs to me......" Yan Zheng's eyes stared at the finger in front of his eyebrows, and he pleaded again and again, "Han Xiao, you let me go...... Now that all the armies outside the city are under my command, and all the defenders in the city are under your control, as long as you and I join forces, the power of the Sanctuary will be at your fingertips, and I will make you king when the time comes...... Oh no, no, no, I will make you emperor, and you and I will divide the sacred realm equally and share the world...... How?"

"What a tempting condition!" Han Xiao replied lightly, "It's a pity that you represent not only you, but also the Beast Clan, the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, and Xuanzong...... With so many forces mixed together, I'm afraid that the little power you get in the end is not enough to divide at all, and you don't have anything to share! Han Mou has always disliked sharing things with people, especially power and status! Your Majesty personally ordered me, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, I can only solve you before the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce and Xuanzong make a move. Dongfang Su refused to make a banner for a long time and just blindly used the name of Lan Shixun and you, and a fool can also imagine that he must be afraid of heavenly punishment. Now that Lan Shixun is dead, as long as you die again, there will be no puppets available in Dongfang Su, and our chances of winning this battle will be much greater. As he spoke, Han Xiao also showed a hideous and cruel smile at Yan Zheng. At the same time, his fingers began to slowly press towards Yan Zheng's eyebrows.

"Don't ...... I beg you......" Yan Zheng couldn't help but feel a complete despair welling up in his heart when he saw Han Xiao's soft and hard refusal, only to see his weeping hands holding Han Xiao's right arm deadly, and wailing again and again with tears in his eyes, "Let me go...... Spare my life...... I can listen to you for everything...... Would it be okay to let me go back to Xijun? Or exile me to the Western Frontier? Anyway, take my life......

In the face of Yan Zheng's dying pleas, Han Xiao was unmoved.

"I want to see His Majesty the Emperor...... I want to see Yan Yi...... "Yan Zheng can't make a plan and then make another plan, at this moment, he will be dying and struggling to the fullest, crying and begging like crazy, where is there still a little bit of the majesty of the King of the Holy West, like a dirty mourning dog, "I want to see Lu Yifan...... I saved him...... Han Xiao!Han Xiao!I saved your daughter, when you were away, it was I who kept your daughter's innocence, and later I secretly helped Lu Haoqian to set up a mourning hall for your Han family...... Do you know all this? It was Emperor Yan Chong who wanted to kill you, and it was the grandson of Shengdong King Yan who wanted to kill your daughter, and I was the only one...... I am the only one who has helped you and saved your daughter...... Do you want to take revenge now? The so-called wall falling down and everyone pushing it is just a momentary miscalculation...... I don't feel wronged to die in anyone's hands, but I can't die in the hands of you and Lu Yifan, because I am indeed kind to you......"

Listening to Yan Zheng's words in a hurry, Han Xiao's face couldn't help but flash a touch of emotion, he quietly looked at Yan Zheng who was flustered, and slowly opened his mouth and said: "No matter what, I can't deny the kindness of King Shengxi, whether it is Yifan or Ling'er, or Han himself, I should thank you." But since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been difficult to achieve, and all that Han can do now is to protect your whole body, and to protect your blood relatives from capital crimes as much as possible......" Han Xiao's voice sounded a little helpless, only to see him slowly close his eyes, and then let out a deep sigh from his mouth, "Maybe you will be more virtuous as the emperor than Your Majesty today, but ...... Alas!"

"Han Xiao ......"

"Poof!"

"Forehead ......"

Without waiting for Yan Zheng to open his mouth again, Han Xiao's face with closed eyes suddenly flashed a touch of ruthlessness, and then his fingers poked hard into the center of Yan Zheng's eyebrows, only to hear a muffled sound of broken bones, and then saw that Han Xiao's entire finger had already sunk into Yan Zheng's eyebrows, directly penetrating his skull and poking straight at his brain. Looking at Yan Zheng again, there was a muffled snort in his throat, and his eyes stared at Han Xiao's right hand in horror until death, at the moment when Han Xiao made a move, Yan Zheng's eyes rolled up, and the red and white pus and blood penetrated Han Xiao's fingers after a while, and bubbled out of the cracks, slapping Yan Zheng's face, adding a touch of terror to his already hideous dying expression again.

"Your Excellency!"

Yin Mo didn't know when he had already led someone in, stood respectfully behind Han Xiao, and asked softly, "...... next?"

"Collect the corpse well, and draw up a memo to say that the King of Shengxi attempted to escape from prison and killed the jailer and died in the scuffle!" Han Xiao said faintly, "Remember, this memo must be sent to the Golden Palace by you in person early tomorrow morning, in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and presented to Your Majesty!"

"The villain understands!" Yin Mo nodded slowly, then he turned his gaze, and then lowered his voice a little again, leaned in front of Han Xiao and whispered, "What the villain wants to ask about the royal blood relatives of the King of the Holy West...... What should I do?"

Hearing this, Han Xiao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, only to see him slowly turn his head to look at Yan Zheng, who was not blind, and then slowly withdrew his right hand, and then closed his eyes for Yan Zheng himself, and finally sighed helplessly while wiping his hands with a handkerchief: "Why do you want to ask me?"

"The villain just heard that Lord Han seemed to have promised King Shengxi that he would try his best to protect the lives of his relatives, so he ......" Yin Mo's words didn't dare to continue, because at this moment he could already clearly feel the bone-chilling chill from Han Xiao's eyes.

"How did Your Majesty explain before you came?" Han Xiao didn't answer Yin Mo's words, but asked faintly.

"Your Majesty means to kill them all, but ......"

"Since Your Majesty has already given the order, what are you still asking me to do?" Without waiting for Yin Mo to answer timidly, Han Xiao said lightly, "You just have to complete Your Majesty's order, what are you doing with all this nonsense?"

"The villain knows what to do!" Yin Mo looked straight, and then agreed loudly.

"Go ahead!"

After Han Xiao said this, he glanced at Yan Zheng's corpse again, and then left the imperial city death row without looking back.

Just when Yin Mo was 'busy' back and forth inside and outside the death row in the imperial city with his swords and axes, not far from the outside of the death row, a black figure that was completely integrated with the night was standing quietly on the top of an archway standing there, silently watching everything that happened here.

Although the night was getting darker, under the hazy moonlight, I could vaguely recognize this person's face, it was the Xuanzong Ming King who had planned to come to rescue Yan Zheng, the Dragon Marquis.

It's just that Long Hou's movements seem to be one step slower than Han Xiao's!
