Call!

The cold wind blew, blowing the hair in front of Yang Yan's forehead, revealing a pair of eyes that were clear and calm as water, without a trace of fluctuation, Sen Han's blade was close at hand, he could even feel the depression and tingling in his throat, as long as he entered less than an inch, he could pierce his throat, however, when everyone was nervous for him and Yu Da smiled, it was himself who was the most calm.

"Pedal ......"

At this time, a rush but neat footsteps came from far and near, and it could be judged from the footsteps alone that the person was definitely a master, and soon, a team of five people appeared in front of everyone, forming a semicircle to surround everyone.

One of them had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, revealing a sharp aura, and looked at Yu Da, who was pointing at Yang Yan, with a look of disdain, and said lightly: "Let go of the Seventh Highness, I can still leave you a whole corpse." ”

When Yu Da saw these five people, his eyes immediately froze, although there were only five people, but the pressure brought to him was far from being comparable to the more than twenty guards, including Xu Liang, each of them was not weaker than him, and there were even two stronger than him, and the person who spoke was one of them.

"You're coming pretty fast. Yu Da snorted coldly, he didn't expect that in this short period of time, the palace guards came, and sure enough, even if Yang Yan was kidnapped, it was not so easy to escape.

The palace guards are different from ordinary guards, ordinary guards are only responsible for protecting specific people, such as Xu Liang and other guards are only responsible for protecting Yang Yan and Taihe Palace, and the safety of other people has nothing to do with them, at least in theory, after all, many times rules are not everything.

The palace guards are responsible for the security of the entire palace, among them, the royal family is naturally the key protection object, therefore, the palace guards are generally above these guards in terms of status and strength, which can be seen from the lineup of the palace guards at this moment and the arrogance that cannot be concealed on the face of the person who spoke.

Of course, the palace guards do not only refer to the five people in front of them, otherwise the entire palace is so big, comparable to a large city, how can only the five people be busy, even if in fact there are very few things for them to solve, it is extremely shabby, how can it be worthy of the glorious and majestic palace?

The Imperial Palace Guard was subordinate to the higher level of the Yulin Guard, but fundamentally it was directly responsible to the Emperor. The entire palace guard was divided into three brigades, each with ten squadrons, and each squadron with ten squads, each with fifty men, a total of fifteen thousand men, which was very large.

The five people in front of them are a small team, of course, they are not all present, but they are the top combat power in this team, and they can still easily crush Yu Da.

Of course, if it is normal, even if it is a palace guard, it is just a small team, how can it be too much to give the guards around the princes some face, but at this time, Yu Da is no longer the commander of the guards, but a thief!

Therefore, this person did not take Yu Da in his eyes at all, and his demeanor was arrogant.

"Didn't you hear me? let go of His Royal Highness the Seventh, I can still give you a good time, otherwise ......" Seeing that Yu Da did not do what he said, this person's expression turned cold, although he didn't say otherwise, but anyone can guess what it would be, there is nothing lacking in this world, that is, there is no shortage of means to torture people, and the palace guards are even more proficient in this way.

"Since it's death if you don't let it go, why should I let it go?" Yu Da sneered, with a mocking look in his eyes.

As soon as these words came out, many people were stunned, indeed, since it is death if you don't let it go, how can Yu Da let it go, saying this may even make him even more crazy.

Thinking of this, many people looked at the person who spoke with a little more anger in their eyes, I don't know if he was intentional or unintentional, he actually stimulated Yu Da at this time, didn't it make their Highness more dangerous?

Xu Liang's face was even colder, how could he not know the situation as the leader of the palace guard team, for the time being, whether this person was arrogant because of his status as the team leader, or whether he didn't care about the safety of their highness at all, it was impossible for him to let this person continue to stimulate Yu Da.

"Yu Da, let go of Your Highness, we won't kill you. Xu Liang stared at the knife in Yu Da's hand and gritted his teeth.

"Shut up!"

However, before Yu Da could speak, the man first opened his mouth to scold Xu Liang, and said indifferently: "As the commander of the prince's guard, it is a big crime to protect His Royal Highness the prince, and I will not allow it to be pursued for the time being, but how can you compromise with such a thief and put the royal face on it?"

"Then we should also take the safety of His Highness as the first priority, first ensure the safety of His Highness, and then talk about Yu Da's crime, not killing, it is not the same as letting go, how can we talk about compromise?" Xu Liang replied coldly.

"Hmph! There is no need to say more about the quibbles, since you have been derelict in your duty and failed to protect the Seventh Highness, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at me now? Do you think I don't care about the safety of the Seventh Highness? Then why do I have to appear here? However, as a palace guard, I should take the overall situation into account, if I let Yu Da go this time, thousands of Yu Da will appear in the future, and then the harm will be even worse, where will the royal face remain, have you thought about it?" The man said so eloquently that it was difficult to refute.

"Is it just ignoring His Highness's life and death?" Xu Liang said angrily, he understood that the other party didn't care much about His Highness's safety at all, and just wanted to kill the anti-thief Yu Da to invite credit.

"That's enough! Pay attention to your wording, when did I ignore the life and death of the Seventh Highness? The Seventh Highness is not in prison because of your dereliction of duty, you should not interfere in this matter, our team will handle this matter properly, and will never let Yu Da and other thieves act recklessly!"

After speaking, without waiting for Xu Liang to refute his words, he looked at Yu Da coldly and arrogantly, and said, "Have you thought about it? Do you obediently lead the death to be happy, or do you suffer all kinds of torture but can't beg for death?"

Hearing this, the mockery in Yu Da's eyes was even worse, although he was not familiar with this person, he knew some of his details.

This person, named Yan Han, in addition to being the leader of the palace guard team, is also a descendant of the Yan family, although it is a collateral line, but it also has a bit of weight, and the Yan family is the maiden family of Concubine Lan, and Concubine Lan is the biological mother of the fifth prince.

If you talk about it in terms of generation, Yan Han is still the cousin of the five princes, and the relationship can be imagined.

The five princes are a powerful candidate for the position of the crown prince, although now the Yang Emperor has not revealed the intention of establishing the prince, and the attitudes of the major families are also ambiguous, after all, after the crown prince is determined, the next throne is basically determined, if you stand on the wrong team, the consequences can be imagined, and the Yan family will naturally not stand in line easily, but with the relationship between Concubine Lan Niangniang, it must be biased towards the five princes, and if you don't offend other princes too much, you will support the five princes as much as possible.

After all, if the five princes ascend to the throne, the Yan family will naturally follow and rise in status, and if the other princes take the throne, even the Yan family will support it, because of the relationship between the five princes, it will also be suppressed, and if it is opposed, the end will be even more miserable.

Under this general trend, Yan Han, as a descendant of the Yan family, naturally wanted to favor the five princes, but at this time he wanted to kill Yu Da, the commander of the guards who originally belonged to the five princes.

It sounds a bit contradictory, but in fact it is not, first, he can clear up the relationship between the Yan family and the five princes on the surface, and at the same time clear the relationship between the five princes and this matter; second, show his own fairness and not favor one side because of the family relationship; third, it is Xu Liangxiang's invitation to take credit; and fourth, and it is extremely important, to kill people with a knife!

Borrow Yu Da's knife and kill Yang Yan.

If it succeeds, the five princes will have one less opponent, the possibility of ascending to the throne will be greatly increased, the family will benefit, and the cold as a hero will naturally be indispensable, as for Yang Yan's death, at most he will be held accountable, after all, he has tried his best to rescue, it was Yu Da who killed Yang Yan in a frenzy;

Therefore, whether it succeeds or fails, it is beneficial and harmless to Yan Han, the Yan family and the five princes.

Therefore, Yan Han forced Yu Da in every possible way, saying that if he let Yang Yan go, he would die, and if he didn't let go, he would die, so that he would kill Yang Yan when he had no choice.

However, who is Yu Da, seeing the indifference in the other party's eyes, hearing the other party's words, and thinking about it deeply, he understands all this.

Is this not only his life, but also the last use of him when he dies?

This is the reason why Yu Da showed a mocking look, why do you think that I will be willing to be used by you like this, just because you are cold? Ridiculous!

"It seems that Team Leader Yan doesn't care about your life or death Your Highness, Seventh Highness?" Yu Da looked at Yang Yan, who was always expressionless, and said with a yin smile.

As he spoke, the blade handed a point forward, which immediately frightened everyone into a nervous state, even Xu Liang was in a cold sweat, and some maids screamed, closing their eyes and not daring to look again, until there was no sound after a while, and they boldly opened a slit, but saw that the blade was still outside Yang Yan's throat and did not stab in, so he was greatly relieved.

"Yu Da, you madman!" Xu Liang scolded after his heart palpitated.

"Crazy?" Yu Da laughed, "Aren't you all forcing me? I'm going to die, and there's nothing else I can't do, what do you say?"

Suddenly, everyone's eyes looking at Yan Han were full of anger, it was he who forced Yu Da to be so crazy, and there was no room for maneuver, Xu Liang looked at him coldly and said, "If Your Highness has something to do today, I want you to be buried with you!"

This sentence is by no means alarmist, with Xu Liang's strength, if it is in his heyday, although he may not be a cold opponent, but the gap is not big, and if he fights to the death, not to mention the burning of jade, at least it can make him pay a great price.

Xu Liang's cold gaze and cold words made Yan Han frown, and then he stretched out and said indifferently: "I don't need you to say more, I will do my best to rescue the Seventh Highness." ”

"Since you are obsessed, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Yes!" the other four guards replied, their voices extremely loud, shocking everyone.

"Take down this thief with me, rescue the Seventh Highness, if there is resistance, kill him!" Yan Han said coldly.

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, the momentum on the five people suddenly exploded, and they pounced on Yu Da like a flood beast, and their bodies trembled, and they were about to rush out.

In an instant, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and everyone was waiting for it, even Xu Liang was staring at the situation tightly, his whole body was full of spiritual energy, and his sword qi was roaring, ready to go.

Yu Da's hand holding the knife tightened, and slowly moved forward, there was not much fear in his eyes, but there was a strong color of madness, and now, he planned to gamble and bet with his life.

His life, the life of the sun and the life of the cold.

"Stop. ”
