The hairpin pierced into the neck, and the red blood slowly oozed out.

The retinue was in pain, and Shen Ce walked over quickly, and the hilt of the sword slammed into his chin.

The silver whistle in his mouth fell to the ground mixed with blood, and said in a gloomy tone: "Who are you who dare to sneak attack me?" ”

Shen Yi's eyes were as indifferent as snow: "It doesn't matter who we are, what matters is what you do here?" ”

The entourage's eyes were cold, and he snorted: "Don't want to learn any news from my mouth, if you want to kill or chop, you can do whatever you want!" ”

"But he is a faithful man who is not afraid of death." Shen Yi's eyes flowed, and a clear glimmer appeared, "Big brother, the poison pill I gave you just now happened to come in handy." ”

"This poisonous elixir is extremely toxic, and after taking it, it will corrode the internal organs, but it is not enough to cause death. Since he is faithful and not afraid of death, he may try this poison that pierces people's stomachs. ”

Shen Ce met Shen Yi's crystal clear eyes, and instantly understood her intentions.

He withdrew his sword, pretended to be looking for a poison elixir, and said, "That's very good." ”

The entourage's face was extremely embarrassed, his eyes were firmly fixed on Shen Ce's movements, his lips were constantly squirming, where was there a majestic appearance.

He took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "We are the soldiers under General Xiahou, and we have been ordered by the general to guard the checkpoint, and Luncheng can only enter and exit. ”

Shen Ce's handsome face was obscure.

General Xiahou is also a person.

His ancestors were all soldiers for three generations, brave and good at fighting, and made great contributions to the defense of the Beixiang State.

Seven years ago, the enemy Turks raided the border of Beixiang Kingdom, and General Xiahou led his troops to the battle, and the soldiers were very fast, and the Turks were defeated and retreated, and won a complete victory.

Emperor He Yuan's dragon heart was very happy, and he valued General Xiahou very much, and gave him the honor of being able to carry a sword to the palace and enter the court.

General Xiahou has always been very happy, he did not ask in the court to come to Luncheng to deal with the flood, but privately sent troops to prevent people from entering Luncheng.

What did he want?

The rain fell on Shen Yi's plain and flowed over her white skin.

Her tone was soft and elegant: "Does General Xiahou want to attack the moat?" ”

The entourage's eyes were shocked, listening to this woman's voice, it should be just a young age, she has such extraordinary courage.

And the general's secret order, only the soldiers in their barracks know about it, how could she guess?

He closed his eyes and said dejectedly, "Exactly. Tonight, General Xiahou will send people to incite the people of Peijun under the embankment of the moat to riot, and another 8,000 soldiers will blend in with the mob to disturb the situation. ”

"In the end, General Xiahou, the county commander of Pei County, and the inner ghosts of the Janissary Guard of the Shenji Battalion should cooperate with each other, take advantage of the chaos to build the embankment, and then destroy the embankment, causing flooding, so as to frame the prince."

Shen Ce and the guards in the palace looked angry.

The destruction of the moat will inevitably lead to the death and displacement of tens of thousands of civilians, which is simply a loss of conscience and the destruction of humanity.

General Xiahou is just that, a small county order, and dare to be involved in framing the prince? Isn't he afraid that the prince will settle accounts after the autumn and rob his family and kill his head?

Shen Yi's white muscles clenched the hairpin tightly, and his heart twitched.

Sure enough, in his previous life, Ah Jing was indeed framed by someone.

The piles and piles are interlocking, as if there is a pair of invisible hands, pushing Ah Jing into the abyss of no return step by step.

The Praetorian Guard of the Shenji Battalion was given to him by Emperor He Yuan after Ah Jing became the crown prince. At that time, Ah Jing was still young, and the Praetorian Guards inserted spies, how could he guard against it?

Is the mastermind behind the framing of Ah Jing the ambitious Fourth Prince Xiao Chuheng, or the Eighth Prince Xiao Shi'an, who does not reveal the landscape, or General Xiahou alone?

Her voice couldn't help but be a little colder: "Who did General Xiahou collude with to frame the prince?" ”

The attendant slowly opened his eyes, and his voice was hoarse: "I don't know." ”

Shen Ce couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and the hilt of his sword slammed into his chest again.

He said in a calm voice: "Tell me honestly." ”

The entourage's face turned pale with pain, bent down, and said in embarrassment: "I really don't know." ”

The anger on Shen Cejun's face was even worse, he drew his sword and said sharply: "If you hide something, today next year will be your death day!" ”

Shen Yi stepped forward, grabbed Shen Ce's arm, and said softly: "Big brother, there is no need to entangle with him anymore, it is imperative that we inform the prince before General Xiahou's soldiers destroy the embankment." ”

She glanced faintly at her entourage, and there was a shallow hint in her eyes: "Just knock him out." ”

The entourage finally saw Shen Yi's face clearly, the water was the eye waves, the mountains were the eyebrows, and the whole body was full of grace and elegance.

He secretly bit his back molars, this is obviously a noble girl raised in the boudoir, she is not in the boudoir embroidering flowers and cooking tea, stroking the piano and burning incense, but she shows up to ruin the general's good deeds.

What makes him hateful the most is that this woman is born with a beautiful appearance, but she has a femme fatale!

Shen Ce has always doted on his only sister-in-law, and he obeys Shen Yi's words.

"Okay." He withdrew his sword and reached for the back of his follower's head.

The attendant screamed, and his eyes fell to the ground with black eyes.

Shen Ce turned his head and said in a heavy tone to Shen Yi: "Yi Niang, General Xiahou has 8,000 soldiers, and there are countless officials under the county commander, and they are disguised as mobs and want to be unfavorable to the prince."

"The Praetorian Guard of the Shenji Battalion is only 2,000 people, and the servants who built the embankment will definitely flee when they see the riot, and the prince's situation is really dangerous."

Shen Yi's eyes were cold, and his voice was calm: "Big brother, a few days ago, I ordered Huazhi to send people to prepare thousands of stone grain in Luncheng, and there are 3,000 guards to guard them, so I can send them to support the prince."

Shen Ce looked slightly stunned, staring at Shen Yi who was indifferent, as if he had expected that these three thousand guards would come in handy.

A few days ago, the water in Luncheng was not fierce, why did Yi Niang stock up on food in advance? And to guard the grain, why do you need 3,000 guards?

But it's not a good time to ask.

He came back to his senses and nodded, "Without further ado, we'll leave immediately." ”

……

As night fell, the rain continued unabated.

The wind is like pulling out the mountain and the rain is like a river.

Beneath the embankment of the moat is Pei County, where there are tens of thousands of households, and they are destined to be sleepless this night.

They have lived here for generations, men farming and women weaving, although their lives are not rich, but they are also plain and beautiful.

This once-in-a-century rainstorm seems to destroy them completely.

Taking advantage of the night, a group of black-clothed people broke into the homes of ordinary people menacingly.

"The prince has an order, the water on the embankment of the moat is urgent, and it is about to burst, and all men who have reached the age of fifteen and are under the age of forty will go to strengthen the embankment, and those who violate it will be killed!"

So they turned the house on their backs, looted all the food, and dragged the young and strong men away.

Those who resisted were beaten severely or assassinated alive with a sword.

For a while, the mournful and hesitant cry filled the rainy night.

Later, the people of Pei County learned the news and ran to tell each other, and fled from their homes one after another, and people were panicked.

The man in black was almost desperate to chase after him, and the fleeing people were sad and almost desperate.

The resentment in their hearts is rising, the tyranny of the prince, for the sake of his merits, it is clear that they do not treat their common people as human beings!

Suddenly, a man shouted from the fleeing crowd: "Fellow villagers, the embankment of the city is about to burst, and the prince is forcing us to build the embankment, undoubtedly forcing us to die."

"Those who do not obey will be beaten to death by them. Horizontal and vertical are all death, why don't we fight to the death? ”

When the crowd heard this, their eyes turned red.

The resentment in their hearts burned like a raging fire, and they said in unison: "The tyranny of the prince has forced us to a dead end, and we will fight to the death!"

The man who spoke looked at the indignant crowd, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The step of causing the riots of the people of Pei County has been completed, and it is only necessary to take advantage of the chaos to destroy the moat embankment.

The embankment of the city is covered with lanterns covered with oil curtains to hide the rain. The lights are shining, swaying in the wind and rain.

The Praetorian Guards of the Shenji Battalion and the Luncheng Servants braved the rain to strengthen the embankment and repair the breach, and everything was carried out in an orderly manner.

Xiao Jing stood on the bank of the embankment, his eyebrows and eyes were cold and clear.

He was born tall, his shoulders straight, his dark robe wet with rain, and the muscular veins of his chest and chest were clearly visible.

The face is still abstinent and awe-inspiring, but there is a compelling hormone for no reason.

"Report - His Royal Highness the Prince, the people of Pei County suddenly rioted, surging towards the side of the moat embankment." A Praetorian Guard was covered in blood and said with a sigh of relief.

With that, he gave up.

The Praetorian Guards of the Shenji Battalion looked at each other, how could there be a riot in a good manner?

Could it be the conspiracy of which prince in the palace?

Before they could think about it, there was a sound not far away that seemed like thousands of horses galloping.

Xiao Jing's eyebrows were cold, and the long sword in his hand was unsheathed.

The Praetorian Guards also drew their swords, ready to meet the enemy.

"Woooo

Arrows were shooting at Xiao Jing and them all over the sky, and the Praetorian Guards in front of them were unexpected, and they were stabbed in the chest, arms, and even in the head.

The servants who built the embankment were so frightened that they scattered like birds and beasts.

Ye Yi and Ye Er stood in front of Xiao Jing, and said urgently: "Your Highness, this pedestrian is trained in an orderly manner, it is not a mob at all, someone is coming at you."

"Inferior escort you away."

Xiao Jingdan's phoenix eyes revealed a gloomy blood shadow, and his voice did not have a trace of warmth: "Get out of the way."

Yeichi and Yeji glanced at each other, gritted their teeth, and had to get out of the way.

Xiao Jing swung his long sword, and the arrow swirled, stabbing towards the "mob" who released the arrow.

The "mob" stared in disbelief at the arrows above his head, hot blood gushing out, and he fell to the ground and died.

The companion on the side trembled, and was frightened by Xiao Jing's momentum.

Seeing this, Yeyi and Yeer laughed loudly: "You so-called mobs, you dare to be presumptuous in front of His Highness, it's a dead end!"

Xiao Jing led the Praetorian Guards forward step by step, his gaze was solemn and his archery skills were exquisite.

Round after round of arrows rained down, and the "mob" killed and wounded more people than the Praetorian Guards.

The mob had run out of arrows, and they viciously lowered their longbows. I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has a distinguished status, to be so skilled.

They changed into scimitars and killed Xiao Jing and the others: "Rush-"

Bang, bang, the Janissaries' swords intersected with the "mob" scimitars, making a screeching sound in the rainy night.

Pillars of blood splattered, staining the earth red.

"Ah Jing!" In the sky, there was a clear voice, which floated to Xiao Jing's ears through the rain curtain without repeating.

Xiao Jing's heart was shocked, and Danfeng's eyes lit up with scorching fireworks.

He followed the voice.
