The final struggle, though futile, was staggeringly destructive. The eleventh prince drew his sword and went into battle in person. Sure enough, Taizong's descendants were all good at writing and martial arts, and Cao Xi's soldiers were defeated and retreated.

"Lu Xiangye, why hasn't the forbidden army come yet?" Bao Qing couldn't help asking.

"Yes! Why? Did you send someone to inform? Fan Zhongyan asked anxiously.

Lu Yijian had a gloomy face, didn't say a word, and retreated with Cao Xi's soldiers.

"I'm afraid that the official family is more than lucky!" After a while, Lu Yijian said.

"Impossible!" Fan Zhongyan said, but the dozen or so ministers who followed Cao Yu into the palace just now did not speak.

Bao Qing shook his head and smiled.

"Just now, Chief Yan sent someone to run over in a panic and told the prime minister that His Majesty only brought two guards to follow the thief to the stargazing platform."

"What? Did you even bring that Kuroki Kirin with you? Bao Qing was taken aback when he saw this.

Hearing this, Lu Yijian grabbed a gray-robed man from the retreating crowd and asked, "Can you see that you went to the stargazing platform with a black wood unicorn?" ”

The man hurriedly nodded yes, and said, "Manager Yan has already packed up his things and is ready to leave, so let the villain come and inform Xiangye." ”

"There are at least four people who can be hidden in the Black Wood Qilin, what's the use of two guards." Bao Qing said.

"Then just now, didn't you say that Your Majesty is fine? He also said that he had insight into the conspiracy in advance and sent someone to save His Majesty? Fan Zhongyan hurriedly asked.

"Can't you hear that? Bao Qing, he called it a suspicious tactic. As soon as I heard him say that, I knew something was wrong! Lu Yijian said.

Bao Qing never believed that Renzong would die, at least now Zhanzhao has not returned. Also, Song Renzong in history seems to have been an emperor for many years. It shouldn't have been so short-lived. But then I thought, is this history still the original history? So far, I haven't found Bao Zheng, but Zhanzhao in this novel really appeared in front of him with flesh and blood.

"So what now?"

"What to do? Jiangshan Sheji must not fall into the hands of chaotic ministers and thieves like the Nine Princes. I have already ordered the forbidden army battalion to protect a few princes and clansmen, and I must pick out a candidate to serve as the chief of the society as soon as possible. This place will be handed over to Hou Ye Cao, doesn't he still have 2,000 soldiers and horses in Bianjing City? ”

"No! Your Majesty must still be alive! Lu Xiangye, you can't arrange a back road so quickly! If the official family is still in the palace, you can't afford such a responsibility. Bao Qing asked.

Bao Qing understood at this moment, no wonder the three battalions of the forbidden army protecting the imperial city in Bianjing City had not arrived. It turned out that he was transferred away by Lu Yijian. His intention is probably to use Cao Xi's troops to fight for the eleven princes. First, it weakened Cao Xi, and secondly, it could also make the strength of the forbidden army in his hands relatively maintained.

It is no wonder that this Lu Yijian is a real political opportunist. If Renzong hadn't been killed, it was estimated that Lu Yijian would have saved his life. However, according to Yan Wenying's report, the official family must not be disappointed. If the chief eunuchs around the official family said so, it was no wonder that Lu Yijian would believe it.

But he can't be passive like this, the current Renzong is enough to listen to Lu Yijian's words, if he changes the emperor again, he will definitely become a puppet in Lu Yijian's hands. Now is the time. Lu Yijian played with his life like this, stumbling on himself. If this really comes to the point when the emperor becomes a puppet, will he still have a way to live?

Bao Qing thought about it, there was no way, in fact, he still had a card in his hand, that is, the daughter of the eleventh prince. But when he remembered the pitiful and frightened appearance of the little county lord, he really didn't want to use such a method.

"Stop!" Bao Qing suddenly turned around and shouted. I saw Cao Xi commanding the soldiers to slowly retreat towards the palace gate.

"Lord Wang! Your daughter is in my hands! "Bao Qing asked someone to call Cao Yun, she was watching the little county lord outside the imperial city.

It worked. The eleventh prince drank the soldiers.

"Could it be that you have an insight into the opportunity again? Since you have caught the king's daughter, let the king see it! The eleventh prince asked.

"Lord Wang. If you don't believe it, why did you stop attacking? Cao Xi led people to protect Bao Qing in the center.

"Lord Wang, did you escort the princess and the little princess to Haoxing Casino?"

The eleventh prince was shocked when he heard this, and his face changed sharply. He could endure the failed assassination attempt, and he could endure his own death, but he could not bear the capture of his wife and daughter.

"Where are the king's wives and daughters now?"

"Lord Wang. Wait a minute! Lord, do you know that you have become someone else's pawn? ”

"Less!" The eleventh prince said angrily.

After a while, Cao Yun brought the little county lord.

Cao Xi was overjoyed when he saw this, and scolded: "Traitor." Now that your only daughter is in our hands, you don't want to be caught quickly. ”

"Father!" The little lord cried out.

"Xiao'er!" Sure enough, the father-daughter relationship is deep, and Bao Qing understands that the eleventh prince is an old man, so the eleventh prince's love for the little county lord can be seen.

Bao Qing jumped off the horse, squatted in front of the little county lord, and asked in a low voice, "Your name is Xiao'er?" To see my father? ”

"Dog, if you dare to hurt the daughter of this king, this king will definitely break you into ten thousand pieces!" The eleventh prince was obviously very nervous.

The little county lord looked at Bao Qing with wide eyes, and he didn't dare to step forward.

"Xiao'er, don't be afraid! Adult's business has nothing to do with you! Go ahead! Bao Qing took the little county lord's hand and slowly sent her forward.

"What are you doing? Bao Qing! Quickly detain that little county lord! ”

"You?"

Everyone didn't quite understand Bao Qing's intentions. Bao Qing walked to the front of the two armies and motioned for the little county lord to come over, and the eleventh prince looked very nervous and expectant.

"Don't let the Dark Arrow go!" Bao Qing blocked the front with his body.

"Hey! No arrows! Cao Xi was obviously a little reluctant, but there was no way to see Bao Qing so insisting.

The little county lord walked to the middle and looked back at Bao Qing, who waved his hand and motioned for her to hurry up.

"Lord Wang, the princess has been killed!" Bao Qing said.

The eleventh prince didn't speak, staring at the little county lord tightly, and it wasn't until the little county lord arrived at his side safely that he showed a relieved expression.

"Although this king doesn't know what conspiracy you have, you have mercy for a moment and let go of this king's daughter for nothing, and you must have regretted it a long time ago! It seems that the princess of this king died at your hands long ago, and this revenge has to be avenged! "The eleventh prince was about to urge the offensive again, but he was stopped by the little county lord's small hand.

"Father, he saved me, don't kill him! Mother was killed by bad guys! ”

The eleventh prince asked a little puzzled: "What bad person?" Isn't it them? ”

Seeing this, Bao Qing shouted, "Think about it? To whom do you entrust your wife and daughter? That Haoxing Casino is where the Plum Blossom Gang of the Nine Princes is located, and when we arrived there, the princess had already been killed, and only the little county lord was saved. Don't you understand that no matter whether you succeed or not, you have become the abandoned son of the Nine Princes. If the assassination is successful, I don't think the Nine Princes will be able to spare a person who assassinated His Majesty. If you think about it carefully, the banner of the Nine Princes is the side of the Qing monarch, not a rebellion. He needs all sorts of high-sounding excuses. You helped him assassinate His Majesty, he can publicize to the outside world that you intend to rebel, and he is here to King Qin. If you fail to assassinate, then you have no chance of living, kill your entire family, and blame all these things on Your Majesty, which means that Your Majesty is slaughtering your clan relatives again. ”

"Nonsense, the Nine Princes are not such people!"

"Not such a person? If it weren't for such a person, would he have been able to endure it for so many years? Do you think that if he becomes the emperor, he will treat you clan relatives well? No, not at all? Just take advantage of the chaos to eradicate them all! Because, he thinks, since he can think of rebelling and becoming an emperor, so will you! You may not know that not only did he plan the assassination of His Majesty when he ascended the throne, but even the Thirteen Princes were assassinated by him. The Thirteenth Prince didn't blame His Majesty, at least His Majesty didn't want his life. His Majesty had just misunderstood him. And it was the Nine Princes who really promoted this matter and planned His Majesty's misunderstanding of the Thirteen Princes. ”

The eleventh prince obviously believed it, and held the little county lord with his hand, and asked, "Tell my father, is it that the people in the Haoxing gambling house want to harm you?" ”

The little county lord nodded, cried and said, "Mother was killed by them!" ”

The eleventh prince's face suddenly turned to ashes, and he was a little at a loss.

Seeing this, Bao Qing knew that as long as he worked harder, he might succeed.

"Lord Wang, if you don't believe me, you should also believe what the little county lord has seen. It's too late for the prince to stop now. The ministers here must ask for forgiveness for the king! Bao Qing paused, "At least you can keep the little county lord!" I promise! Cao Hou Ye can also guarantee it! (To be continued......)
