Chapter 411: Dying Struggle
In front of the inner gate of the palace, there is still a moment to go, but there are already many ministers and relatives of the emperor waiting for them.
Most of them are taking this opportunity to make friends, and they are all smiling, and they are happy and peaceful.
However, it didn't take long for the news of the emperor's cancellation of breakfast with the princes and grandchildren, and it didn't take long for the rumors of the five kings and the five princesses being given to death, and in an instant, uneasiness and anxiety quietly dispersed in the crowd.
Everyone was in a panic, and although they didn't know what was going on, there was definitely something big going on.
In the palace, after receiving the order to cancel breakfast, Zhou Cheng and his father, the crown prince, turned back to the East Palace and patiently waited for the subsequent order.
Seeing that his father had been coughing, Zhou Cheng frowned and said, "Father, don't go to the emperor's grandfather's birthday banquet later." ”
"No," the prince shook his head, "today is the sixty-fifth birthday of your imperial grandfather, and there is no reason to be absent for your father." Besides, being a father just wants everyone to see that I'm so fast...... It's not going to work. ”
At the end, the prince coughed even more, and his whole thin body trembled violently.
Knowing that he couldn't persuade his father, Zhou Cheng didn't persuade him again, but looked out the door, as if he was expecting something.
After a while, a eunuch finally came, with a sneaky appearance. After recognizing that it was the person he had bribed the emperor's side, Zhou Cheng immediately got up and strode out of the hall to greet him, "What's the news?"
"Your Royal Highness, the five kings and the five princesses were given death by His Majesty. The eunuch exclaimed.
"Really?" Zhou Cheng confirmed to the eunuch, with irrepressible joy on his face.
"It's true, Liu Gonggong, who brought me before, is just taking people to clean up, according to His Majesty, he has ordered that the five kings and the five princesses be buried together. The eunuch said.
Zhou Cheng didn't do anything anymore, but took out a piece of gold from his arms and stuffed it into the eunuch's hand, then leaned into his ear and instructed: "Find a way to leak the wind out." ”
After the eunuch left, Zhou Cheng returned to the prince and exclaimed: "Father, the five uncles and the five princesses were given death by the imperial grandfather. ”
After hearing the news, the prince was stunned at first, and then coughed, looking a little sad.
"You, Uncle Wuwang, have never been favored. The prince said with a bitter face, "All this is your plan?"
"It was Erchen's plan, but it wasn't Erchen who killed Uncle Wuwang, he fornicated with Northern Liao, and he killed himself. Zhou Chengdao.
The prince let out another lament, then shook his head.
"Father, are you feeling sorry for your brother?" Zhou Cheng was displeased, staring at his father coldly, "When my imperial brother was killed, you knew that there was someone else behind the murder, but you knew that you made a mistake and killed King Rui, isn't he your brother?"
"Last year when I was in Hangzhou, I was almost assassinated by the Fenghuo Sect, it was your brother who sent someone to kill his son, and you are actually taking pity on him at this time!"
Seeing that Zhou Cheng's face was red and his ears were red, the prince was so anxious that he coughed, kept waving his hand, and was almost out of breath.
Zhou Cheng hurriedly called the people from the two palaces to give the prince medicine and good luck.
It wasn't until he calmed down that the prince gasped and said, "Being a father is really old and becoming a woman's kindness." You're right, the Five Kings do deserve to die. The next thing is to enter the school according to the original plan."
"Father, have you thought clearly?" Zhou Cheng asked.
After taking a deep breath, the prince nodded, "Don't worry, I know it in my heart." By the way, there is nothing unusual about the forbidden army outside the city, it seems that the one named Ye Fei did not betray you. ”
Zhou Cheng smiled suddenly, then turned around, looked out the door, and said thoughtfully: "I don't know what happened to him at the moment?"
......
On the secluded path leading to the Imperial Palace.
"Boom".
Ye Fei fell into a pile of yellow sand.
On his side, there are three peach trees that are about to grow young leaves. On one side of the peach tree is a narrow stream, and on the other side of the stream are several scattered houses, and on both sides of the stream is a single-plank bridge that can only be passed by one person.
As Ye Luheng predicted, Ye Fei was not Xiao Nanyun's opponent.
In front of opponents whose strength is not inferior to their own, internal strength has always been Ye Fei's weakness, unless Ye Fei can pull out the last needle that Gong had buried in his body.
When the yellow sand dispersed, Xiao Nanyun walked in front of Ye Fei with a knife.
"You're defeated!" Xiao Nanyun said, and then tore off his face towel. His face is clean, so he appears younger than his age.
"To be able to fight me for more than 100 rounds is worthy of being the first person under the age of 25. Xiao Nanyun sighed.
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Ye Fei wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, looked at Xiao Nanyun and asked, "Who are you?" I haven't seen you before. ”
"Xiao Nanyun!"
"You are Xiao Nanyun, the number one swordsman in Northern Liao!" Ye Fei sighed, he finally knew why he was defeated.
"This time, I came to Bianjing specifically to kill you. Xiao Nanyun said.
Ye Fei smiled, "In this way, I have to thank you for looking up to me?"
Xiao Nanyun raised the knife in his hand, "No need! I just want to tell you that there is no shame in dying under my Xiao Nanyun's knife." ”
"But it's not an honor," Ye Fei said, "I'd rather die at the hands of a powerless child than die at the hands of a Liao Rao Zheng."
Xiao Nanyun sneered, "But you have no choice! You broke the Fenghuo Sect at the beginning, and you can't tolerate it!"
"I guess it won't be long before you Fenghuo Sect and Northern Liao will hate me even more!"
After that, Ye Fei closed his eyes, looking like he was about to give up.
"What do you mean by that?" asked Xiao Nanyun.
Seeing that Ye Fei did not respond, Xiao Nanyun's knife fell and slashed towards Ye Fei.
Not far away, seeing that Xiao Nanyun was about to end Ye Fei's life with a knife, Yelushou clenched his fists tightly.
After losing to Ye Fei that day, he was looking forward to defeating Ye Fei one day in the future, and he would not have this opportunity.
However, when Xiao Nanyun's knife was about to slash Ye Fei's neck, suddenly, on Ye Fei's right side, his sword a few steps away from him suddenly flew over and blocked Xiao Nanyun's knife.
After the knife was bounced back, Xiao Nanyun was a little annoyed, raised the knife in his hand, and injected more internal force into his hand.
Ye Fei, who was lying on the ground, first took a dozen steps back against the ground, and then sat up, his eyes never opened.
"Needless struggle!" Xiao Nanyun said coldly.
Then move forward.
As a top swordsman who cultivates external skills, Xiao Nanyun's light skills are also top-notch.
His knife intent seems to be domineering and fierce, but in fact it is rigid and soft, because the cooking method is also thick and thin, and the combination with light power has reached the extreme.
This is also the reason why he couldn't find his flaws in the confrontation just now.
As Xiao Nanyun approached step by step, Ye Fei, who was sitting cross-legged, kept dodging left and right, judging the dodge by his ears.
In the end, he was forced by Xiao Nanyun to a peach tree, and the trunk of the peach tree was split in half by Xiao Nanyun.
Fortunately, Ye Fei dodged in time and moved towards another peach tree.
Xiao Nanyun patiently caught up with him, and with another swing, he split another peach tree as well, and forced Ye Fei to the edge of the stream.
