Chapter Twenty-Six: The Undercurrent Surges
(Two more, ask for a recommended collection, thank you)
In the distance, the footsteps of a large group of soldiers could be heard.
The remaining seven men in black woke up from the shock, flew past the crowd of onlookers, and disappeared into the night.
The three Liuyun also fell to the ground after they left.
"This empty city plan, I sing so hard. Liuyun muttered.
"Damn, in which world, you all came after the fight. The officers and soldiers of the brigade who came later made Liuyun secretly curse before fainting.
When he woke up, Liuyun found that only the sword wound on his body had not healed, and the other external injuries were almost healed. While Ah Lei and Thunder were arguing quietly in front of the bed.
"Third brother, why did you only talk about the boys of the Cade family at that time? You don't respect girls at all!"
"You're embarrassed to say, you see that you really panicked when you fight, it's not the performance that a genius should have. β
"Don't you say the same about me? Usually the fight is quite majestic, but just now he was almost beaten down. β
"You two heartless guys, aren't you in a hurry when your second brother is injured like this?" Liuyun couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
In fact, Liuyun is wrong to blame the two. When he fell, Ah Lei was already crying in fright, and later, under the reminder of Thunder, he threw the healing techniques one by one at the three of them. It was only later when the two were told by Yan Tian that the injuries of the three were all right, that they began to reminisce about the exciting battle and ridiculed each other.
"Hehe, I know you're okay, second brother, so don't worry. Besides, the second brother's body has been tempered a lot. β
Ah Lei saw Liuyun wake up, walked over and lay on the head of the bed, took his hand and smiled. A greasy look makes Liuyun's heart sweet.
"How are the two of them injured?" said Liuyun was a little worried about Iverson and Walker's injuries.
"The injury is not serious, and it will be fine after a few days of recuperation. Arley replied.
"Oh, then I'm relieved. β
"Second brother, I think you are very strong and violent. Thunder remembered the bloody scene again, and put on a scared look.
"Actually, I'm also a very elegant person, if it weren't for saving your little life, would I need to kill so much?" Liuyun felt that the bloody point was nothing, but he was also stabbed, so it was a little uncost-effective.
Ah Lei and Thunder invariably made an expression of "It's weird to believe in you", as if they had decided that this brother was a bloodthirsty person in his bones.
"Still, you're a bit of a fun guy. One doesn't know even the most basic healing techniques, and deliberately lets our blood drain, and the other can't hold the enemy, and is injured by someone. Looks like I have to strengthen you. β
After this bloody battle, Liuyun felt that he had too little experience in battle, and his weakness against the enemy was a fatal flaw for the two of them, and he had already decided that when he left the imperial capital, he would take the two to the Eagle Academy to make up for a few lessons.
In the days when Liuyun was injured and recuperated, the imperial capital was in chaos.
The children of the emperor's ** minister were assassinated on the streets of the imperial capital and almost lost their lives, which made the entire emperor ** feel quite unbearable. Enraged, George IX ordered a thorough investigation into the matter and a thorough investigation of the murderer. As a result, the officials responsible for the security of the imperial capital were purged, which directly triggered an earthquake in the officialdom of the imperial capital.
And the bloody battle on Caiyun Street, spread by onlookers, has become a classic bridge in the mouth of the storyteller in the imperial capital.
"I wonder which passage you want to hear next?" asked Storyteller A.
"Damn, of course it's listening to the bloody battle on Caiyun Street! When did you start telling a story?" the audience shouted in unison.
"I've said it three times, and you've heard it three times. Storyteller A said aggrievedly.
"We just like that tune!' 'If you want to fight, you will fight!' 'Who's next?'" The audience said in unison.
"......" Storyteller A.
It is said that the impact of this incident was so great that before the street hooligans in the imperial capital fought, they would drop an opening sentence: "If you want to fight, you will fight!"
And the people who give porridge to beggars on the street, when a beggar leaves with porridge, will say coolly: "Whose turn will be next?"
What's more, a certain bard of the empire, based on this battle, wrote a popular song "Brother": "The wind of colorful clouds takes away the figure of the old dream... The awakened clouds leave behind the hero's pride... Don't abandon, don't give up, be brothers for the rest of your life. Don't abandon, don't give up, and be brothers in the next life. β
Imperial capital, imperial palace.
When George IX walked into Naya's room, he was still a little angry. The attack on Liuyun and his party surprised him and realized that things were not simple.
The officials investigating the matter reported to him that among the people who attacked Liuyun were one intermediate sword master, four junior sword masters, three senior magicians, and seven high-level samurai. How can such a powerful lineup be commanded by ordinary people? The forces behind it must be quite powerful.
"Na'er, Liuyun, Thunder, and Ah Lei were attacked on Caiyun Avenue, and Liuyun was seriously injured. β
"How are they?" asked Naya, who was shocked when she heard this.
"He's fine, just more injured. He was accompanied by two junior swordsmen. Thunder and Ah Lei also have the power to fight. George said in a deep voice.
"There are two swordsmen with him, why is he still seriously injured?"
Naya asked, puzzled.
"The people who attacked him were five sword masters, three high-ranking magicians, and seven high-ranking samurai. George IX said in a deep voice.
"Ahh
"No, it's for the two swordsmen beside him. George shook his head.
According to onlookers, Liuyun and his siblings could have left safely, but he didn't. Later, he even suffered a sword from the leader of the other party with his body, and together with the two swordsmen, he tore the leading intermediate swordsman alive. George continued.
The three high-level magicians who attacked them died mysteriously, with only a trace of blood in their eyes, thinking that they were injured by a domineering secret weapon, and it may be that a master secretly helped. Later, our soldiers arrived, and the rest of the attackers fled, just in time to save them. β
"How is this possible?" Naya's face changed in shock.
"What a fierce battle it must have been. George sighed softly.
Naya didn't speak again, she suddenly wanted to see the injured Liuyun, but reason told her that it was impossible. From the day she divorced, there was a gap between her and him that could never be crossed.
"The situation in this matter is quite complicated, and I have sent someone to investigate it in detail. "The occurrence of such an incident on Chinese New Year's Eve in the imperial capital made George IX extremely angry, and he was determined to find out the murderer.
"Liuyun Kaide, can you fight hard for the sake of the two followers?" Naya suddenly felt that her sympathy for him was ridiculous.
Imperial capital, Prime Minister's Mansion.
In a gloomy room, Sdelow stood respectfully behind a man, reporting to him about the assassination of Liuyun and the others.
"Liuyun, this kid, did us a lot of help this time. "Sdelo seems to be in a good mood.
"Are all the manpower in the Sheriff's Office and the City Guard?" the man asked lightly.
"It's arranged. The sheriff and the two deputy commanders of the city guards are all our people. Sdelow replied respectfully.
"Hmm. Later, the two legions under my command will also take advantage of the opportunity to prepare for war and readjust. Joseph said.
"Your Highness, are you ready to do it?"
"So many years have passed, so why rush for a while? he is one day, and I can't do it for a day. β
The man sighed softly, turned around, and revealed his true faceβPrince Joseph.
He remembered that when his father died, his eldest brother George leaned towards the opposition, and he was still young and far inferior to George, so he had to watch him sit in the position of emperor. Subsequently, he had to bury his desire for the throne deep in his heart, and he buried it for more than 20 years. Although George cared for him very much, in his opinion, it was just some pitiful charity, how could it be the feeling that I have in the world.
"I know my brother very well, he is a very shrewd man. Although he trusts me on the surface, do you think he really won't guard against me?"
"He's an old fox. Sdelow shook his head, "And what does Your Highness mean?"
"You're still so anxious. Joseph was a little dissatisfied with Sdelow's impatience.
"We've waited too long for this day, Your Highness!" said Sdelo.
Moreover, some of his recent actions have touched the interests of many nobles. These people have privately expressed to me that they are willing to stand by His Highness's side and defend the dignity of the nobility together. β
"These people are unreliable. They are just grass on the wall, and where the wind blows, people fall. Joseph shook his head, "In their eyes, there is only their own interests. β
"So what's next?"
"The empire can't be messed up, Assman and the Sith are eyeing it. Even though I have a heavy army, I will not be able to defeat the invading enemy after the great chaos. β
Joseph was not a short-sighted man, he knew that war was not far off.
"We'll have to wait. You contact the blood kill, be sure to kill the prince Shiyan before he returns to the imperial capital!" After speaking, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Joseph's eyes.
"Your Highness, rest assured, I will arrange this matter. β
"When he dies, who will fight with me? After all, the emperor is already old. β
Joseph smiled faintly, as if he had seen a bright future.
"What about the conditions of the bloodkill?" asked Sdello again.
"Provide 5 million gold coins to support their development in the Sith Kingdom, I agree. But you tell them that it's better to be honest and don't want to put your hand in the Fire Cloud Empire!"
Thinking of the bloodshed and that distant legend, Joseph said in a deep voice.
"That woman from the Asman Empire may be about to make a move. Sdelow had been in charge of the Empire's preparations for war, and couldn't help but remind.
"That woman?" said Joseph, laughing.
"Let him come, Yan Tian is waiting for her. I'm worried that I can't do anything about this old guy!"
