Liu Xuanzhen took a closer look, it was Ding Kun, the Emperor of the Celestial Empire, who hurriedly put down his weapon and prostrate on the ground: "Villain Liu Xuanzhen, meet the Emperor of the Celestial Empire!" Long live the Emperor of the Celestial Empire, long live, long live! ”

When Liu Xuanzhen's soldiers saw that the situation was not good, they all fell to the ground and hurriedly shouted "Long live". In this way, all the people in the market fell to their knees, and the mountains shouted long live, and the voices came and went one after another, and they were endless. Jing Ming, Sun Ziyang, Cheng Xuan and others were almost stunned.

After Ding Kun accepted the worship of his subordinates and the people, he showed arrogance, stretched out his arms, and shouted to everyone: "All the people are exempt, please get up quickly!" Hurry up, please! ”

Seeing this scene, Jing Ming glanced at Ding Kun meaningfully.

Ding Kun understood, and immediately put away his arrogance, and turned serious: "Liu Xuanzhen! Do you dare to lead troops to run rampant in the streets and markets in broad daylight, interfering with the normal order of buying and selling? ”

Liu Xuanzhen hurriedly knelt down again: "The villain violated the ban on the market, and the crime is unforgivable!" Please also ask the Emperor of the Celestial Empire to punish him! ”

Ding Kun poured: "I read that you know your mistakes and correct them, I will spare you for the time being!" Now I order you to lead the way and escort me to the Imperial Palace! ”

Liu Xuanzhen hurriedly said: "Thank you Emperor!" Then he got up, drew the sword in his hand, and shouted: "The Emperor of the Heavenly Empire is driving!" The people avoid! Violators will be killed! ”

When the people heard this, they hurriedly scattered and avoided, and a wide avenue was immediately made in front of them.

So, under the protection of Liu Xuanzhen's troops, everyone marched towards the imperial palace.

Jing Ming turned his head sideways to Ding Kun and asked, "Emperor, who is this Liu Xuanzhen?" ”

Ding Kun said: "Oh, I forgot to introduce you, this Liu Xuanzhen was originally a soldier under my account when I was in Montenegro, and when I saw that he was loyal and honest, I let him serve as a centurion." Later, I didn't know, what is that, the original entourage was rewarded, but as for what official position Liu Xuanzhen holds now, I don't know very well. Wait for me to ask! ”

Jing Ming smiled and said nothing.

Ding Kun said: "Liu Xuanzhen! I have something to ask you! ”

Liu Xuanzhen hurriedly said: "Dare to ask what the emperor commands?" The villain must know everything, and never dare to hide anything! ”

Ding Kun asked, "What is your official position now?" ”

Liu Xuanzhen said: "Back to the emperor, the villain is now serving as a market inspector, and there are hundreds of soldiers under his jurisdiction. ”

Ding Kun said: "Oh, why is it still equivalent to a centurion?" ”

Liu Xuanzhen said: "The emperor inquired, and the villain didn't dare to hide it, just because the villain had a quarrel with the current regent Zhou Cheng, so he ......."

Ding Kun said: "Needless to say, I already understand. Since you have met me today, as long as you have a good life and do errands, I will naturally not treat you badly! ”

When Liu Xuanzhen heard this, he immediately became overjoyed: "Thank you, Emperor!" The villain must do his best to repay the emperor! ”

Jing Ming thought to himself: "In today's world, there are so many sycophants! He remembered the story that Ma Junshi told him about Su Qin's return to his hometown after paying homage to the prime minister, and couldn't help but have the same emotion as Su Qin - life in the world, power and wealth, how can it be sudden!

But it was said that the news of the Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty returning to the capital was like wings, and it quickly reached Zhou Cheng's ears. Zhou Cheng knew that Ding Kun came back this time, and if he knew all the things he had done, he would naturally not give up, so he immediately gave the Imperial Forest Army a heavy blockade of the Imperial Palace, and at the same time sent his henchmen to pretend to be assassins, and set up an ambush on the way to the Imperial Palace, preparing to assassinate Ding Kun!

Therefore, Ding Kun, Jing Ming and others were moving forward under the escort of Liu Xuanzhen, and suddenly a few cold arrows whizzed in, and everyone hurriedly protected Ding Kun, and dismounted one after another, looking for cover to hide. I saw that Liu Xuanzhen did not show any fear, and while resisting the cluster of arrows with the long sword in his hand, he shouted loudly: "The Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty is here!" Who is so presumptuous? If you don't show up and be bound soon, you may be spared death! ”

Before the words fell, Liu Xuanzhen's left arm had been hit by an arrow! I saw him insert the sword in his hand into the sheath, hold the arrow rod in his right hand, and pull it out violently, and blood suddenly splattered to the ground! He broke the arrow with both hands and threw it on the ground: "Grandma, dare to hurt your Grandpa Liu!" ”

At this time, soldiers had already caught two assassins who were unable to escape with bows and arrows not far away, and escorted them over.

"Say! Who are you responsible for? Liu Xuanzhen drew his sword, picked the chin of one of the assassins with the tip of the sword, and shouted.

"I'm willing, no one directs!"

"Hard-mouthed, huh?" Liu Xuanzhen stabbed his sword forward, and immediately blood splattered, and one of the assassins fell to the ground and died.

"He doesn't say, you come! Said to avoid death! Liu Xuanzhen was already splashed with blood on the door, and his face was very hideous at the moment.

"I said, I said, it was the regent Zhou Cheng, he said...... said that he killed the emperor and sealed the marquis of ten thousand households......"

"Oh, I see! Stand up! Liu Xuanzhen said with a smile.

The man stood up tremblingly, thinking that Liu Xuanzhen would let him go, but who knew that Liu Xuanzhen's sword turned around, and with a swish, a bloody cut had been drawn on this person's neck, and this person hurriedly protected it with both hands, it was too late, and blood splattered......

"Don't mention the one surnamed Zhou, you might still be alive!" Liu Xuanzhen looked at the assassin who was thrown on the ground and was twitching.

"The villain is incompetent, so that the emperor is frightened! Please get on the horse and keep going! Liu Xuanzhen said to Ding Kun, "It seems that the regent Zhou Cheng has already taken action, please take care of the dragon body!" But don't panic, I've sent someone out, and help will be there soon! ”

Jing Ming thought to himself: "Good girl! It turns out that this trip is really dangerous! I thought Uncle Li was alarmist! He couldn't help but look back at Sun Ziyang, Cheng Xuan and the others, and their faces also showed an indescribably complicated expression.

Everyone was no longer in the mood to watch the royal street before, and they all became cautious, and the carriages and horses moved slowly.

I didn't go far, but I heard the sound of horses' hooves behind me, as if an army was chasing from behind, and everyone hurriedly looked back. I saw a white flower and a piece of soldiers, countless of them.

"Where is the Emperor of the Celestial Empire? Where is the Emperor of the Celestial Empire? The general-like man at the head took the lead, raised his spear, and shouted at the crowd.

For a while, everyone was stunned, and they didn't know what the other party was about!

I only heard Liu Xuanzhen shouting: "The Emperor of the Heavenly Empire is here!" ”

"The last general, Guo Qilin, meet the Emperor of the Celestial Empire! The last general learned the news of the emperor's return to Beijing, and heard that someone wanted to harm the emperor, so he specially led 2,000 soldiers to escort him! When the general saw Ding Kun, the emperor of the Celestial Empire, he hurriedly rolled off his horse and knelt on one knee.

"The general is flat! General Guo came very timely! There will be a reward in the future! Ding Kun was overjoyed.

"With our escort, please rest assured!"

"Good! Target: Imperial Palace, forward! ”

In front of the gate of the imperial palace, another team of white flowers is eyeing the tiger, like a copper wall, with swords and guns, and the sword is shining. The archer bent his bow and was about to shoot.
