Chapter 112: The Night Is Thick
The court meeting ended in a gloomy situation among the courtiers.
Almost no one cared about the fate of the five prisoners who were thrown into prison.
What everyone is more worried about is that as the imperial power really sets up a signboard above the court, it will cause some changes to the overall situation in the future.
At the same time··· Even more uneasy.
In the Tianqian Palace, Feng Lin Wan and Gao Wei are divided into primary and secondary seats.
The wonderful cooperation between the two caught everyone off guard.
Gao Wei would compromise with the 'little emperor', which was something that neither Zhao Kaicheng nor Wang En expected.
But fundamentally, it's a matter of course.
Gao Wei and Wang En, Zhao Kaicheng, Huo Quyi and even Cheng Penghai have never been different.
He is a vulgar guy, he does not have the 'noble' ideals of Wang En, nor the ambitions of Zhao Kaicheng and Huo Quyi, nor the bold and scheming of Cheng Penghai. At first, he was just a favored minister who relied on pleasing the emperor, and it was his nature to be attached to the emperor and greedy for pleasure.
Now that Feng Linwan has shown his strength, it is predictable that as such a courtier, he knows how to take refuge in time.
"Your Majesty! In today's battle, you and I joined forces to attack the ministers by surprise, which can be called a big victory, and it is gratifying!" Gao Wei completely restrained his previous domineering at this time, and became humble, and the changes and switches of the two faces were very free, without the slightest reluctance.
Feng Lin sat on the chair and held his chin with his hand, as if he was in a trance, and did not answer Gao Yan's words.
Sima Liang, the doppelganger on the side, said with a smile: "This time, I still rely on Gao Xiang's help, but after today, although Gao Xiang's actions are not considered to be obvious, they can't hide from those who have a heart." In the future, I am afraid that it will be difficult to move forward in the court. High phase··· You've been wronged!"
Gao Yan smiled faintly indifferently, the clouds were light and light, as if he was really a good minister who was dedicated to his duties, loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and did not put his own interests first.
But in fact, he knows best that as the commander of the Long Xiao Army, he controls this emerging department of violence and power, and his power is rapidly expanding and amplifying, and with this amplification, and because of the particularity of the Long Xiao Army, there will be more disagreements and contradictions between him and the courtiers sooner or later.
In this case, it is necessary to strike first and weaken the strength of the opponent in the future.
Of course... Feng Linwan's coercion by force is also a key factor.
Sima Dudu said with a smile, worrying about the king, it is the duty of being a courtier, how can he be wronged. ”
However, today's situation has not been settled. Tonight... But it's still a long way. Speaking of this, two shadows, one green and one white, appeared behind Gao Yan.
Dressed in white is the fox demon, the same woman who played the animal world with him in the carriage last time.
And the one in green clothes is a snake demon, with a cold breath, and the whole body exudes a message that no one should enter.
A snake and a fox, two demons equivalent to the hidden realm, are like the hole cards of this high prime minister to save his life.
Crackling... !
The raindrops are the size of beans, and I am afraid of hitting the windows of the palace.
Outside the door, there were already some wails and screams of Dongchang fans and guards.
Gao Wei looked at Sima Liang and said in a gentle tone: "Sima Dudu, this is the rain master under the command of General Huo, it is said that this person is from a different race, and he is born with the ability to use clouds and rain, and now this rain is mixed with the poison of melting gold and rotting bones, and your ordinary knife and axe hand outside the hall is afraid that he will not be able to stop him." ”
Just as Feng Linwan once predicted, when the situation was out of control, some people didn't mind and used violent methods to solve all problems.
For example... Let Feng Linwan, the crazy son of heaven, die violently, and then raise a new emperor.
Syllable!
The doors of the temple were blown open by a strong wind.
A pouring rain poured in from outside the temple.
The raindrops, which seemed to be just slightly cloudy, corroded into a deep pit when they fell on the floor, giving off a pungent smell.
The two guards rolled in from outside the hall with burns all over their bodies, and rushed to Sima Liang with a wail all the way, as if they were about to ask for their lives.
The next moment, their skin was all cracked, and two warriors dressed in black, holding short knives, sealed Sima Liang's front and back points at the same time.
The candles flickered, and the shadows in the temple were lengthened.
Sima Liang only took a small step back, and an old eunuch with a stiff face who lived like a zombie suddenly appeared and blocked in front of him.
The two short knives were grabbed by the old eunuch with his thin fingers and crushed directly.
Broken iron filings fell to the ground with a harsh, mocking sound.
The two figures were directly torn apart, and the blood and broken limbs spilled stained the ground red, making this originally luxurious and solemn palace a little strange and cold.
Click! Click!
The footsteps outside the door became more and more frequent, and the man in the cloak walked in with a black iron umbrella in his hand.
He shook the rain off his body, and the rain fell on the ground but it emitted bursts of corrosive green smoke.
"Oh! It seems that not only the rain master, but also the sword marquis. This person's swordsmanship is a must, and his cultivation is also at the level of condensation, but he is the left and right hand of the general. Ordinary Ning Gang Monk is not his opponent, Your Majesty, you have to worry. Gao Wei made a voice again, as if to remind, just listening to his tone, there was no nervousness, obviously there was something to rely on.
The person who came unbuttoned his coat and put down the iron umbrella, with an unremarkable looking face and a general's sword in the military standard at his waist.
Two more old eunuchs pounced out of the darkness and attacked Jianhou one left and one right.
The three of them are entangled and can't tell the winner for the time being.
The overflowing energy made the entire palace tremble and shake, and with the rain washed away with strong corrosive toxins, the originally solid hall seemed to be about to collapse.
Originally, the palace was supposed to have a monk presiding over the large array to resist the invasion from the outside world.
Naturally, such unhealthy winds and rains will not blow in.
But many years ago, the monks who guarded the palace died, and the palace was completely destroyed.
It will not be easy to re-establish this great array.
More old eunuchs pounced, searching for their opponents in the dark.
The wind and rain outside the palace also seemed to have temporarily let go of the crumbling palace, and turned its target to the enemy in front of it.
The change happened suddenly, and the fox demon who had been following Gao Ji moved.
She suddenly changed her face, slapped a palm on the back of the snake demon beside her, temporarily restrained it, and at the same time held a sharp weapon in her hand, and flew towards Feng Lin Wan, swallowing demonic energy all over her body, and she was bound to take Feng Lin Wan's life by fighting for her life.
The emperor has a dragon qi to protect himself, whether it is a monk or a demon, if there is no accident, he can only use a sharp weapon to assassinate with pure physical damage. This is also the reason why the fox demon, who was originally good at some vicious spells, chose to take advantage of his strengths and weaknesses, and used the hand-to-hand combat method that he was not good at to assassinate Feng Lin Wan.
Poof!
The fox demon was rushing towards Feng Linwan, and a strange smile had even been reflected on her face, which was extremely beautiful, but suddenly... But suddenly his whole body froze.
She lowered her head and looked at her originally towering chest, a small sharp sword tip pierced her heart through her chest, everything came so suddenly.
She turned her head in disbelief and saw Gao Wei holding the hilt of a long sword.
Blade was pulled out of his chest.
Gao Zhen did not have the slightest nostalgia and reluctance, and continuously swung his sword, slashed at the back of the fox demon, and cut off the other party's tail.
With a long and fierce wail, the fox demon's eyes gradually dilated, turning into a huge white fox, and fell to the spot covered in blood.
