Chapter 415: Rain
The autumn weather is already a little cooler.
A patch of green in the summer has now become a little golden.
Even the woods and fields on the side are occupied by golden yellow, and the breeze blows, like a piece of rolling golden waves, which is very beautiful.
In this harvest autumn, in front of the East Palace, there is a color of slaughter.
Ten days have passed since the last time a mysterious person came and slaughtered hundreds of soldiers from the Eastern Palace's Mansion at the gate. For ten days, the soldiers of the Dongwang Mansion were in strict formation, waiting for the strong enemy to attack at any time, but after waiting for so long, the strong enemy never appeared again.
A thousand days to be a thief, there is no thousand days to prevent thieves. After a long time, the sergeants inevitably got tired, and the intensity of patrols was far less frequent than at the beginning.
The little prince Huang Yuanwu reluctantly ordered that the original two classes of sergeants be replaced with three squads, so that the soldiers had more time to repair.
In late autumn, in the evening, the chill creeps in.
The setting sun is in the sky, shooting out a golden light, pulling all the shadows on the earth very long.
Two figures slowly appeared on the official road of the East Palace, one wearing a fiery red robe, and the other wearing black.
The two of them had no mounts, but walked slowly forward on the road, and the afterglow of the setting sun stretched their shadows long, and they should be on the way forward, like two mountain peaks moving forward slowly.
At this moment, the little prince Huang Yuanwu was sitting in his study, checking the letters exchanged in recent days.
The feedback from all sides has been very good.
Liu Yuan has led his troops into the north, and when the tribes in the north heard that the army of the East Wangfu was coming, they retreated one after another and pushed them to the extremely remote areas, because the northern defense line of the East Wangfu is not too far from the endless sea in the far north, so the forces that resist the East Wangfu that survive in the north do not have much room for survival.
On the front line of Pingjin Castle, the construction of the fortifications has begun after the arrival of the rest of his life, and a majestic structure no less than the black stone city wall is slowly being completed. For Pingjin City on the edge of the Gobi, the most important thing is building materials, plus 50,000 recruits and 30,000 soldiers brought by the rest of their lives.
The news from the south came a little late, and the expeditionary force led by Huang Yanghui had just arrived at the first city, which itself was the outpost of the East Wangfu in the south, and there were no forces against the East Wangfu nearby. The southern territory is vast, but sparsely populated, is an undeveloped virgin land, presumably Huang Yanghui will not encounter too many difficulties, just step by step, according to the established plan, in the south to start building the city.
As for the matter of pretending to be Huang Yuchen and his party in his team, there is no obvious mistake at present, Huang Yanghui has only arrived in the southern city, I am afraid that the outside world has only gotten this news at this moment, and has not made any moves.
Huang Yongning was responsible for coordinating all logistics, and shared a lot of pressure on Huang Yuanwu at once. For this second brother, Huang Yuanwu is very relieved, Huang Yongning Wen Taowu is superior, and he is much more handy than Huang Yuanwu when he sits up these things.
After reading the news of the report, Huang Yuanwu breathed a sigh of relief, at least there were no obvious problems in the several directions he arranged, and now he was worried about the only thing left was the mysterious master who appeared in front of the door of the East Palace.
According to his analysis, the person who came was likely to be from Tianqing City, which also explained from the side why Xu Feng had been staying in Dongwangfu and not leaving. There must be something they want in the palace, and this thing must be related to Huang Yuchen.
In order to ensure safety, Huang Yuanwu arranged Huang Yuchen and the other three into his courtyard, living in a shallow way every day, and the precautions must not be strict.
However, Huang Yuanwu also knew in his heart that no matter how much he prevented, it would be useless in front of the real supreme master.
......
Outside the mansion, two slow-moving figures appeared in the field of vision of the sentinels of the East Palace, and the sentries stood
Report the anomaly immediately. Subsequently, several squads completed the assembly at a very fast speed, and in front of the Dongwang Mansion, they set up a defensive position.
Since the last time there was a matter of one person slaughtering a hundred sergeants, the sergeants of the entire Dongwang Mansion were like facing a great enemy, and the speed of this assembly was much faster than the last time.
When the two figures arrived in front of the East Palace, in front of the palace, a large group of sergeants had been assembled, nearly a thousand soldiers, in front of the East Palace, in front of the East Palace, if ordinary people saw it, with the momentum of thousands of soldiers, people did not dare to step forward.
The two figures stopped, and the black-robed man standing in front of him looked up at the battle in front of him, and a glint crossed his eyes, and it was fleeting.
"Who's coming?" the army commander raised his sword and asked the two men wrapped in robes in a loud voice, seeing what he meant, and he looked like he would come forward and kill people without saying a word.
The black-robed man looked up at him, did not move, and after a while, when the officer was already a little impatient, he said in an extremely hoarse voice: "Someone from Tianqing City is here, see Huang Yuanwu." ”
The officer at the head was obviously stunned, glanced at the black-robed man, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Tianqing City? Where is that? Do you have a letter?"
"You can go back to yourself. The black-robed man replied casually, and actually stood in place and began to close his eyes and recuperate. The red-robed man behind him immediately closed his eyes, as if the thousand sergeants in front of him did not exist.
The officer obviously didn't expect the two of them to look like this, his brows furrowed, and he wanted to have a seizure, but he still held back, turned to look at the herald behind him, and ordered him to go in and give orders.
When the news reached Huang Yuanwu's ears, he was taking a nap. I haven't had much time to rest for many days, and I just closed my eyes for a while, but when I heard such news, I couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Tianqing City ......" Huang Yuanwu frowned, quickly calculated in his heart, and then said to the herald: "Please let them in." ”
The herald was obviously stunned for a moment, but when he saw Huang Yuanwu's serious face, he immediately took the order to bow down and retreat.
Then, the order reached the ears of the general at the gate, and he showed the same expression as the herald at that time.
The two black-robed people in front of them are not ordinary people no matter how you look at them, but I don't know what their relationship with the little prince is.
The general frowned, looked at the two people who were still closing their eyes and recuperating, waved his hand lightly, and the entire brigade of sergeants who were waiting behind him separated left and right, revealing a road in the middle, leading to the gate of the palace.
"The little prince invites the two of you in. The general grinned slightly and whispered to the two robed men.
The black-robed man led by him raised his eyelids slightly, saw a road appear in front of him, bowed his head slightly, and walked away, followed by the red-robed man behind him.
The two of them walked in the middle of the road composed of slaughtered sergeants, calmly, and went straight to the gate of the East Palace, as if they were strolling leisurely.
The more the general thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and then ordered all the soldiers to scatter left and right, surrounding the main gate of the palace, and before the two came out, no one was allowed to leave his post without permission. If these two men did anything in the palace, they would have no return.
The sunset slowly set, Huang Yuanwu stood in front of the front hall, the afterglow of the setting sun hit his face, and his frowning brows and serious face were undoubtedly revealed.
The two robed people who entered the Dongwang Mansion were still moving slowly, and there was no one to guide them, and the two of them still bypassed the shadow wall in the courtyard and came to the front hall.
Huang Yuanwu saw the two robed people who appeared outside at a glance, their eyes were solemn, and the two of them were not in a hurry, and every step seemed to be stepping on him. The pressure from Tianqing City lingered in Huang Yuanwu's heart all the time, and at this moment, the people of Tianqing City stood in front of him, and the feeling in his heart was beyond words.
"Yuanwu Little Prince. "Black robe
The person stood still, looked up at Huang Yuanwu who was standing on the steps, his voice was hoarse, and he called softly, which was regarded as a greeting.
Huang Yuanwu nodded lightly and did not speak, and the two of them were shrouded in robes, one black and one red, giving people a strange sense of mystery, and they couldn't figure it out.
"This time, on behalf of Tianqing City, I will choose two paths for the little prince. The black-robed man looked at Huang Yuanwu and said softly.
When Huang Yuanwu heard this, his heart tightened, and he immediately thought of Ye Guan, and then said, "What way?"
"The way of life, or the way of death. The black-robed man's gaze remained unchanged, and his tone was calm.
"Hahahaha. When Huang Yuanwu heard this, he suddenly laughed, he glared, and pointed to the black-robed man in front of him: "You Tianqing City is so big, do you want to decide the life and death of my Dongwang Mansion?"
As soon as he finished saying this, in front of the front hall, more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared, surrounding the two black-robed people in front of him in the middle, everyone was steaming with fighting spirit, and all cultivators were no longer below the monks. And behind Huang Yuanwu, more than a dozen people silently walked out, with swords in their hands, glaring angrily.
These people are all Huang Yuanwu's guards, and in the courtyard are the sergeants patrolling the palace, each of whom has a military rank. Behind Huang Yuanwu is his personal guard, more than a dozen people, all of whom are good hands in the palace army, and all of them have the junior level of martial artists.
These thirty people are standing here, and ordinary martial arts senior masters can't be said to be easy to kill, not to mention the Huang Yuan Martial Arts who are intermediate in martial arts, even if they face high-level martial artists, they have the power to fight.
The man in black didn't speak, just glanced around faintly, then looked at Huang Yuanwu, and said in a deep voice: "Little prince, is this about to tear your face?"
"I, Commander Ye, where are I now?" Huang Yuanwu glared, looking at the person in front of him, his eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire, he was afraid of Tianqing City, and let the two of them come in because he knew that ordinary sergeants were definitely not opponents of the two, and once they did it outside, it was likely to cause a large number of casualties.
"Commander Ye?" Hearing this, the black-robed man obviously fell into deep thought, and only said after a while: "I haven't heard this name for a long time, but you are talking about Ye Guan?"
"Exactly, where is he now?" asked Huang Yuanwu.
"He's dead. The black-robed man was very indifferent and said this lightly.
"What did you say?" Huang Yuanwu heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he took advantage of the situation to draw his saber, and the long knife came out of its sheath and let out a soft groan.
Hearing the sound of Huang Yuanwu's long knife coming out of the sheath, the dozen or so guards surrounding the two no longer waited, and immediately stepped forward with their knives, and their whole body gushed out, and the courtyard in the dusk was full of fluorescent fighting energy.
"Kill!" more than a dozen guards pounced on the two of them at the same time, with long knives in their hands, and vigorous fighting qi gushed out, forming Daodao sword qi in the air, heading straight for the two of them, and after the knife qi, there was a group of guards who were imposing.
The black-robed man didn't move, but in his eyes, a light suddenly burst out.
"Whoa......
With a few soft sounds, the originally brilliant sword qi disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, more than a dozen guards who rushed forward suddenly stood in place, motionless.
"Little Prince...... Is this what you want?" the hoarse voice of the black-robed man remembered, and in the next moment, blood sprayed all over the sky.
More than a dozen heads seemed to be thrown into the air with great force, and more than a dozen corpses, like fountains, sprayed blood outward.
The blood-red color immediately stained everything as far as the eye could see, and in the courtyard of the antechamber, it was like a bright red rain.
The two robed men did not move, spraying blood as if avoiding them, and a small unstained vacuum formed around the two of them.
"Knock ......"
More than a dozen corpses fell, and at the same time, more than a dozen heads, as if it were raining, fell in front of Huang Yuanwu, and the sound of the landing seemed to hit his heart, every sound was like thunder.
