King Xiao has made all preparations: 100,000 Yulin troops are on standby, 10,000 will go to occupy the palace, 10,000 will go to the major yamen in the city, 10,000 will surround the palace and exterminate all the thieves inside, 10,000 will guard the Sifang city gates, 10,000 will go to the important town near the capital, announce the news that the emperor will destroy the rebellion and take sole power, and the remaining 50,000 people will be the emperor's guards.

There was only one order to set off, and no one knew what King Xiao was waiting for.

Although the whole plan encountered an accident from the beginning - the stand-in did not hide from the eyes of the Queen Mother - but it was still carried out smoothly, exceeding the initial expectations, what King Xiao and the emperor did not expect was that Gu Shenwei, who was not very important in the whole plan, became the biggest stumbling block at the last moment.

"I reminded you. King Xiao muttered to himself, the torches around him were brightly illuminated, only the Chinese army tent was pitch black, maybe not so dark, he raised his head and found that the moonlight was very bright tonight.

In fact, there is no need to involve the Dragon King in this "coup", the killer in the Western Regions can be hired by anyone, it is the emperor who insists on planting the Dragon King, the emperor is quite deep, but he shows a little childishness in this matter, which makes King Xiao puzzled to this day.

Dozens of generals lined up on both sides, Yulin General Luo Cong knelt on the ground in fear, and the guests representing all forces watched from afar, they had completely admitted defeat, as long as King Xiao's eyes turned over, these people would kneel.

King Xiao has no greed, he wants to leave all the glory to the emperor, but he can't reveal the truth now, that will greatly reduce the shock of the emperor after he appears.

The emperor was able to convince Gu Shenwei, and he was very sure of this, although it was a bit long, the emperor would definitely be the final victor.

King Xiao once sent Qingcheng to send guards to visit the situation, he knew that this trick would not work, but he had to do it, otherwise, the emperor would suspect that he had other intentions afterwards.

If there is anything similar between the emperor and Gu Shenwei, it is suspicious.

A group of cavalry galloped over, and two Qingcheng guards carried one person and threw it more than a dozen steps away from King Xiao.

Ci was hit by an arrow in the leg, which was the reason for his arrest.

King Xiao glanced at him and didn't say anything, this is an inconsequential figure, when the emperor takes power, he will soon be able to exterminate all the Ten Directions Sect.

The power of life and death should be vested in the emperor, and King Xiao will not issue any more orders until he comes out.

He was a little nostalgic for the scene when the generals bowed down to their orders, and immediately controlled his thoughts, and must not show any signs of disrespect in front of the emperor.

A person finally came out of the tent of the Chinese army.

The soldiers gave way to a passage, and Shangguan Yun walked quickly towards King Xiao, and he noticed that thousands of soldiers were surrounding the Zhongjun tent a hundred paces away, all of them with arrows in one hand and a strong bow in the other.

When he was dozens of steps away from King Xiao, Shangguan Yun was stopped and only after being confirmed was he released.

Shangguan Yun came out with doubts, but at this time, his mind changed, he stopped in front of King Xiao, and bowed respectfully, "Xiao Wang greets His Royal Highness King Xiao." ”

In the eyes of others, Shangguan Yun's actions were appropriate, but King Xiao was stunned, "No courtesy, come and speak." ”

Shangguan Yun walked a few steps, leaned into King Xiao's ear, and whispered about the situation of the martial arts competition in the tent, and only said "that person" when mentioning the emperor, and Gu Shenwei replaced it with "from the Western Regions", and was very careful not to mention Gu Shenwei's last guess and suggestion.

Some things are obvious, but the person who brings it up first will still be unlucky, Shangguan Yun said the facts, and then waited for King Xiao's reaction.

King Xiao had no expression on his face, as if he didn't understand how these facts affected him, "I know that the swordsman's sword skills in the Western Regions are very good, but he is better at assassination than martial arts, Zihe Zhenren is said to have perfected his martial arts, but he is old, King Yun, according to what you can see, which of the two of them will win?"

Shangguan Yun thought for a while, and knew very well what King Xiao's true intentions were, and his answer must be clever and appropriate, "I'm afraid that no one here will be the winner." ”

King Xiao understood, in fact, as early as the moment he saw Shangguan Yun walking out of the Zhongjun tent, he understood that the emperor was at a life-and-death juncture, and he had not formulated an effective rescue plan except for a rash attempt, which was a sin.

Ci Zisheng, who was crawling on the ground, suddenly burst out, and he was seriously injured, as if he had gained some kind of divine power from the ground, his palms were slapped, and two Qingcheng guards took over, and they were actually knocked out, and a large stream of blood spurted out of his mouth.

Before the guards landed, and the surrounding soldiers had not yet reacted, Ci Shisheng pounced on King Xiao.

Ci Zisheng had been waiting for a long time, he was indeed seriously injured, and he regretted his recklessness, but at that time, the imperial seal was close at hand, and no one could resist the great temptation, in order to make up for the mistakes he made, he wanted to assassinate King Xiao.

Most of the pills on his body were searched, only one doppelganger Bodhisattva Pill was held under his tongue by him, and he was not found, he bit through the wax film, swallowed it, and handed himself over to the power of the violent and ruthless, and the six relatives did not recognize.

King Xiao stood calmly in place, he didn't know martial arts, his reaction was slower than that of ordinary soldiers, and he couldn't dodge the sudden attack of the Ten Directions Sect Leader at all.

Shangguan Yun blocked it, and before the two fought, he knew that his strength was not good, or advance or retreat, Shangguan Yun made a choice in an instant, changed his move halfway, and was hard to be the most victorious palm, and hugged the opponent's right leg tightly.

Qingcheng sent guards to be loyal to King Xiao, but their relationship with Shangguan Yun was more intimate, and seven or eight people jumped at the same time, swords and swords, stabbed Ci Shisheng out of several holes, and then knelt down to plead guilty, because they did not detect the danger of the demon in advance.

Ci Zhisheng's palm was less than three feet away from King Xiao, King Xiao felt that his heart had even stopped beating for a while, he waved his hand, signaling that the guards were innocent and could get up, he looked at the Yulin Army, and found that the soldiers around him had drawn their swords and bows, eager to try, King Xiao could see that all the weapons were honestly put down.

The Yulin Army was really willing to follow his orders.

Shangguan Yun stood up, Ci's most victorious palm made him hurt a lot, his face was like white paper, the corners of his mouth were bloody, he took out a handkerchief and wiped it gently, and bowed his hand to King Xiao.

King Xiao nodded at him, and the friendship or trust between the two was greatly deepened at this moment.

"Wait for the old fairy to come out. Xiao Wang said.

"It won't be long. Shangguan Yun knew that King Xiao had already made up his mind, and the reason why he wanted to wait for Zihe Zhenren to come out was to leave the act of killing the monarch to Gu Shenwei.

Both of them have a simple idea, Gu Shen takes the initiative to challenge, and there will be a way to win.

In the Chinese military tent, no one knew what Zihe Zhenren thought, but he used all his strength, even in the eyes of the emperor, the old immortals of the Kongtong faction were definitely going all out.

When the figure of the Purple Crane real person suddenly turned from Gu Shenwei in front of him to behind him, the emperor's eyes widened in surprise, thinking that the real person deserved the name of the immortal.

As soon as the thought moved, the immortals were reduced to mortals.

Like Zihe Zhenren, Gu Shenwei didn't want to delay time, he wanted to use the real dead man's swordsmanship to determine the outcome with one move.

He hadn't used this trick for a long time, and it was still easy to use at this time, the life qi of the Purple Crane real person was thin and light, and the moment he used the Sudden Palm Technique, this qi became even lighter, like green smoke blown away by the wind, and it became more and more unpredictable.

Gu Shenwei took out the knife, with a peculiar posture, his right arm around his neck, and the narrow knife stabbed behind him, without turning around, and his footsteps did not move, and then he withdrew the knife, almost thinking that he had failed.

Zihe Zhenren's palm didn't hit.

Gu Shenwei turned around, and found that the knife he just now really couldn't be regarded as a success, he failed to stab the target's vital point, but it was not a failure, the narrow knife pierced the palm of Zihe Zhenren's hand, breaking his flickering palm technique.

"Good sword technique, or good sword technique?" Zihe Zhenren had never been so serious, looking at the palm of his right hand that was oozing blood beads, he felt a bone-piercing coldness that was rapidly spreading throughout his body.

"There is no difference. Gu Shenwei said, a faint excitement surged from the bottom of his heart, the Dead Man Sutra re-aroused his murderous intent, and he felt that he had to go back to the old road, keep chasing and killing masters, and finally kill himself.

Zihe Zhenren took a deep breath and turned to look at the emperor.

The emperor didn't know why, and from his point of view, he saw that he didn't care about the sword, so he didn't know that the competition was over, and he didn't know that the result was extremely unfavorable to him.

His intuition told him that he should say something to motivate the old fairy to work hard for himself, but after years of strict imperial education, he avoided asking for help like a snake and scorpion, and even if Tarzan collapsed, he could behave calmly.

But the intuition was too strong, and the emperor's closed lips finally opened, "The old immortal will become a national teacher." ”

Zihe Zhenren smiled, "I'm eighty years old. He said that with pride, helplessness and irony, he was eighty years old, accustomed to ups and downs, and was able to change his position without guilt.

The real person walked out of the tent and never looked back, he thought, it is not difficult to please King Xiao, the Kongtong faction has already laid some foundations, although Fan Yongda is dead, he has left a very valuable "friendship", and he still has a ribbon wrapped around five imperial seals around his waist.

Fear jumped out of the corner of the emperor's heart like a cunning snake, and he suddenly returned to the years when he had just ascended the throne, and the strict queen mother would punish him for a little thing, and the young emperor sat alone in a small dark room, without a sound around him, full of fear, and hatred for his mother gradually grew in his heart.

"Why do you have to kill me?" Gu Shenwei put half of the narrow knife on the table, and pointed the tip of the knife at the emperor.

Just like facing the queen's questioning, the emperor turned his head slightly, not looking at people or swords, "Because you never die, killing you is the first perfect plan I made, but you never die." ”

The emperor was stubborn, hoping to use another perfect plan to accomplish the goal of the year, as for Gu Shenwei's life experience, it didn't matter.

Gu Shenwei understood, this was the same as he thought, and it also made him extremely disappointed, he finally walked out of the jungle, and what he saw in front of him was a very ordinary scenery.

"Do you think King Xiao will let you go?" the emperor wanted to make one last effort for his survival, "only I can save you." ”

Gu Shenwei shook his head, and heard the sound of wind-blown waves outside like mountains and forests, which was the sound of ten thousand arrows firing together.

Seeing Zihe Zhenren walking out alone, King Xiao asked Shangguan Yun, "Who else knows?"

"Zhong Heng seems to have guessed the truth, but no one believes his words, and I have arrangements for him. ”

King Xiao no longer hesitated, and without even waiting for Zihe Zhenren to report the results of the victory, he ordered the arrows to be released, and then the armies set off to complete the task that had been predetermined.

The military camp was cleaned up, King Xiao's orders were meticulously implemented, Shangguan Yun was the first to kneel, and then a large number of generals and guests also knelt.

Seeing this scene from afar, Zihe Zhenren untied the ribbon and held it in his hand, ignoring the rain of arrows flying overhead. (To be continued.) )
