A familiar voice interrupted Xiao Shenggao's words.

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Xi's face appeared at the entrance of the palace banquet.

provoked everyone to look over.

Cheng Jingyu was even more surprised, but she only glanced at Cheng Xi and her eyes turned red.

- Her father was dressed in armor and covered in dried blood.

Obviously, he has only been away from Xichu for a month, but he actually has a tuft of gray hair on his sideburns.

Even his eyes changed, and he glanced sharply at the courtiers present.

He seemed to be galloping all the way back to the court, dusty, and carrying a heavy black weight in his hand.

For his sudden appearance, Xiao Shenggao's panic flashed across his face.

Cheng Jingyu had already pounced: "Dad! ”

The already sweaty lump of paper in her hand was impossible to throw away if she held it in her hand.

Seeing Cheng Xi safe and healthy, she was more surprised than anything else.

With a flicker of her eyes, she saw Cheng Jinghe following behind, and her eyes were wet: "Brother." ”

Cheng Jinghe stood beside Cheng Xi and stroked her long hair.

Before Cheng Jingyu could ask why they suddenly returned to the court, Xiao Shenggao opened his mouth first.

"Aiqing, this is, the war in the northwest has subsided? You didn't encounter any difficulties on the way, did you? Come, come and give me a seat! ”

He was obviously panicked, as if he didn't expect to see Cheng Xi here.

- No, it should be said that he didn't think that Cheng Xi would come back alive.

Didn't Nantang say that if nothing goes wrong, there is absolutely nothing to make Cheng Xi return to the dynasty?

So what is it?

Not only Cheng Xi, but even Cheng Jinghe is back!

And they look unharmed!

"Sit?" Cheng Xi carried the thing and walked towards the dragon seat step by step.

The courtiers everywhere were very curious, but they were all frightened by Cheng Xi's expression, and they didn't dare to make a sound at all.

As Cheng Xi's military boots clattered on the ground, getting closer and closer to Xiao Shenggao, he obviously saw the emperor swallowing helplessly.

His hand grasped the armrest of the dragon chair, his eyes were fixed on Cheng Xi, and anyone with a discerning eye could see the emperor's nervousness.

But I don't understand why he is nervous.

Inexplicable and strange.

"No, I don't have to." Xiao Shenggao pretended to smile calmly: "Aiqing has come all the way back, and the time is coming, why don't you just start the banquet?" ”

Cheng Xi didn't hear his words, he raised his arm, and the black cloth pocket lit up in front of everyone: "Does Your Majesty know what this is?" ”

When he was lifted to his side, he didn't feel anything wrong, but when he raised it at this time, he found that this thing was round.

Although it was wrapped in a black cloth, it seemed to be soaked with some liquid.

Those who were closer could smell a thick smell of blood.

"The Southern Tang Rebellion, the cause was a little strange, at that time His Majesty asked me to go, and the edict was also urgent, but I never thought much about it."

Everyone could clearly hear Cheng Xi's loud voice.

And the emperor had completely sunk his face at this moment: "What do you want to say?" ”

He even gestured to his own secret guard in the dark.

The forbidden army directly obeyed the emperor's orders, and they all secretly touched the saber.

But at this time, there was a heavy sound of horses' hooves outside the Palace of Joy, and at least thousands of horses stepped into the imperial city.

"Cheng Xi!" Xiao Shenggao suddenly became excited, and he shot the case: "Are you going to rebel!" ”

Almost at this time, the courtiers who were originally stunned became panicked at this moment.

The seats could not sit still, and several of them had already huddled together and hid under the wall.

But Cheng Xi rebelled?

How could he rebel, Xichu's military power has been in his hands for more than 20 years, if he wants to rebel, he still has to wait until now?

Cheng Jingyu looked at it in a daze, she originally planned to make a desperate bet, but at this moment, it seemed that there was no room for her to make a move.

Even she didn't know what Cheng Xi wanted to do.

At such a tense moment, the footsteps of the people behind me were not heard.

And Cheng Xi obviously didn't care about Xiao Shenggao's anger, he still held the thing, and his eyes only looked at Xiao Shenggao: "Your Majesty hasn't answered yet, what is it here?" ”

"I don't know!" Xiao Sheng shouted loudly: "Come on, come here Cheng Xi wants to rebel, he wants to murder me!" Hurry up! ”

But no one paid attention to him, and the commander of the forbidden army swallowed his saliva: "General Cheng, have you brought troops into the palace, please withdraw immediately, otherwise-"

"How else? The 300,000 troops of Western Chu are in my hands, if I want to rebel, can your small forbidden army and patrol battalion stop me? ”

No one has seen Cheng Xi's Yama-like expression, no, it should be said that the enemy on the northwest battlefield should have seen it.

That's how he kills the enemy, as brave as the unsubdued Yama.

"You—" The Janission Commander was speechless by his fear.

Could it be that this is really the opposite?

"Since Your Majesty doesn't want to guess, let's take a look directly."

Cheng Xi said, throwing the things in his hand directly-

The round thing rolled around the table a few times, and because there was no binding, the contents quickly fell out.

Cheng Jingyu only heard Concubine Yi scream, but before she could see clearly, a touch of warmth hit her eyes.

- Someone reached out from behind her and gently covered her eyes.
