Yang Yuanba had just come to Yang Xiong's dormitory, waiting for Yang Xiong to announce his entry, just now a eunuch told him that the saint was unwell, and the imperial doctor was treating him, so he waited for a while, and at this moment, Yang Yuanba suddenly heard someone behind him calling him.

As soon as he turned around, he saw a man in an imperial robe walking quickly towards him, and Yang Yuanba immediately recognized it as the crown prince Yang Ye.

Yang Yuanba saw Yang Ye in the twentieth year of Jianyuan four years ago, when Yang Ye was attacking the Western Turks as the commander of the Western Route Army, and his grandfather Yang Su was the deputy marshal, although he only saw him twice at that time, after four years, Yang Yuanba still recognized him at a glance.

He hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee to salute, "Humble Yang Yuanba, knock to His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Yang Ye hurriedly helped him up, and quickly whispered in his ear: "The saint has collapsed, don't make a noise!"

Yang Yuanba was taken aback, the Holy Lord had already died? Although the news was very sudden, Yang Yuanba still restrained the nervousness in his heart.

"What can I do for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

"You be my personal guard, follow me into the dormitory, whoever dares to stop it, kill him immediately!"

Yang Yuanba was still thinking about how to tell Yang Xiong about his fight against Luo Khan, as concise as possible, without affecting the patient's rest, but Yang Ye's appearance suddenly made him change his task, the saint had collapsed, Yang Yuanba's heart was at a loss, but Yang Ye didn't give him any time to think about it, pulled him, and the two walked briskly to the steps one after the other.

He is still at the gate of the dormitory, and then go inside, there are two palace gates, at this time the news of Yang Xiong's death has not yet come out, the door of the dormitory is as calm as usual, twenty halberd left guard sergeants are standing at the door on duty, Yang Ye and Yang Yuanba walked quickly to the door, and the head of the hall at the door stopped them.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the Holy One has not announced, please wait at the door!"

"Saint Xuan General Yang is here, don't you know?" Yang Ye shouted loudly, but quickly gave Yang Yuanba a look.

Yang Yuanba had no weapons on his body, he stared at the long knife on the waist of the straight hall, the halberd was a real iron halberd, and the knife should also be a real knife, it should be a very sharp knife, the handle of the knife was five feet away from him, Yang Yuanba decided to bet on this one.

The head of the hall was resolute, "No one is allowed to enter without the Holy Lord's call!"

Suddenly, Yang Ye pointed to the hall, "Look, isn't the proclaimer here?"

At the moment when the chief of the hall turned his head, Yang Yuanba suddenly launched, his movements were extremely fast, and he pulled out the sword on the waist of the chief of the hall, a cold light flashed, and the blood light on the neck of the chief of the hall burst out, and he fell to the ground screaming, and the blood sprayed Yang Ye's body.

The sudden change stunned the other nineteen guards, and before they could react, Yang Yuanba's body was like thunder, and his knife was like lightning, killing several people in a row, and in an instant, the four people closest to the gate died under his knife, Yang Ye also cooperated tacitly, and at the moment when the chief of the hall fell to the ground, he rushed into the dormitory.

The other fifteen guards all reacted, they roared, and stabbed at Yang Yuanba, Yang Yuanba picked his feet, and the iron halberd of the chief of the hall had entered his hand, he waved the knife in his left hand, danced the halberd in his right hand, stabbed left and right, extremely fierce, and in a moment, eight or nine people screamed and fell in a pool of blood.

The remaining few people saw that he was extremely brave and unstoppable, they all shouted in fright, turned around and fled, Yang Yuanba pulled two knives from the guard's waist, and chased Yang Ye with a halberd in his hand.

Although there were only twenty guards at the gate of the dormitory, there were nearly 100 left guard soldiers in the square and the corridor opposite, Yang Yuanba killed more than a dozen people just between the rabbits and the falcons, and everyone was stunned, and when they reacted, Yang Yuanba and Yang Ye had already rushed into the palace one after another.

There was a sudden chaos outside the palace gate, and the sirens sounded 'dang! dang!', and a guard shouted, "Catch the assassin!"

Although the shouts were loud, the soldiers did not dare to rush into the dormitory easily, they were waiting for the order of He Shaokang, the general of the Zhige.......

He Shaokang is about thirty years old, burly, with a big waist and a round waist, extremely strong martial arts, known as the first general of the left and right guards, his bow and arrows are hundreds of shots, a snake spear makes the gods elusive, he was the personal guard of the emperor Yang Xiong at the earliest, and later entered the left guard, became the confidant of the left guard general Yuan Min, and gradually rose to the general of the left guard, he served as the general of the left pavilion for nearly eight years, the qualification is very old, and he is ready to be promoted to the general of the left guard this autumn.

He Shaokang is the supreme commander on duty in the palace today, one of the six Zhige generals under his left guard general, he was not on duty today, but Emperor Yang Xiong's illness has worsened in the past two days, and the time is ripe, Liu Shu ordered him to be on duty today, ready to start tonight.

He Shaokang was thinking about the specific plan for doing it today in the room, it was easy to kill Yang Ye, the key was his boss, Shi Xiang, the general of the Left Guard, he was likely to enter the palace tonight.

Just when He Shaokang lowered his head and pondered, a imperial doctor nervously walked to the door of the room and knocked on the door, He Shaokang opened the door, and saw that the imperial doctor's expression was extremely strange, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "What, is something wrong?"

"Go and report it...Liu Shangshu, the saint....already...driving..collapse!" The imperial doctor was so nervous that he couldn't speak clearly.

"What!"

He Shaokang was taken aback, he was stunned for a while, turned around and ran back to the house, took out a pre-prepared note from the bedside, and beckoned a henchman to come forward, "You immediately hand over this to Liu Shangshu, go immediately!"

The henchman took the note and rushed away, He Shaokang was anxiously pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, and the sudden death of the saint meant that tonight's plan was disrupted, what should he do?

But the stakes are high. Without Liu Shu's instructions, he didn't dare to act rashly, and He Shaokang didn't know how many laps he had walked around the room, he was anxiously waiting for news from his henchmen, who should have arrived early, why didn't he come back.

He Shaokang was anxious, and suddenly, the bell rang from the direction of the Great Treasure Palace, which was the alarm bell, He Shaokang was stunned, what happened?

In a moment, a soldier rushed over, "General, His Royal Highness the Prince, and another person have entered the Great Treasure Palace." ”

He Shaokang's eyes widened, and he suddenly roared, "Immediately order the brothers to gather in the Great Treasure Hall and block them for me!"

．．．．．．．．

Yang Yuanba rushed into the hall, caught up with Yang Ye in a moment, and handed him a knife, at this time Yang Ye except Yang Yuanba, he couldn't believe anyone, any guard might have been bought by Yang Chaoyu's party, even the person he sent to guard Yang Chao was bought, who else dared to trust?

At this moment, Yang Ye had already let go, he pulled out his long knife, threw away the scabbard, and walked towards the inner palace with a murderous aura, Yang Yuanba followed behind him, holding a halberd in his hand, and looked around vigilantly while walking quickly.

Yang Xiong's dormitory is called the Great Treasure Palace, it is the structure of the word 'same', the big palace outside is set with the small palace inside, the twelve vermilion painted gold pillars stand in the middle of the palace in two rows, there are hundreds of eunuchs and palace ladies in the palace, they screamed in fright, stumbled to both sides and ran away, hiding behind the big pillars, looking at the prince and Yang Yuanba who were covered in blood in horror.

Yang Ye and Yang Yuanba rushed all the way, just when the shout of 'arresting the assassin' had just been called, and the alarm bell had not yet sounded, they had already rushed to the door of Yang Xiong's inner palace, and there were also twelve guards standing outside the door, all of them were burly, all of them were strong martial artists, they were not left guard sergeants, but Yang Xiong's personal guards.

When they saw that the prince was covered in blood, holding a long knife in his hand, and followed by an officer with a halberd, they were all at a loss for what to do, and they didn't know what had happened.

Yang Ye knew that these twelve guards were his father's henchmen and guards, and it was impossible to be bribed, so Yang Ye pointed at them with a knife and shouted: "Liu Shu rebelled, are you willing to escort me?"

The twelve guards had actually heard the cry coming from the palace, they all knew that the saint was not good, but they didn't dare to leave their posts without permission, the prince shouted loudly, making them look at each other, and suddenly, they knelt down together, "I am willing to serve the prince!"

Yang Ye was overjoyed, he pointed at Yang Yuanba, "You can listen to General Yang's orders!"

He rushed into the inner palace quickly, Yang Yuanba already understood what role he was playing at this time, he smiled bitterly in his heart, but he had no choice, who made him Yang Su's grandson, he had to order in a low voice: "The six people on the left guard the palace gate, no one is allowed to enter, and the remaining six people come with me!"

He is a general in a hundred battles on the battlefield, and there is an irresistible majesty between his words, the guards dare not disobey, and the six people on the right follow Yang Yuanba into the inner palace.

Yang Xiong's inner palace is not big, it is divided into two by the drape, and there are more than a dozen imperial doctors and more than 20 eunuchs and palace maids standing outside, all of them look sad, especially the imperial doctors are even more frightened, none of them expected that the saint would die like this, they thought that the saint would wake up after fainting like yesterday, but they didn't expect that this time the fainting was gone.

The sorrowful cries of several women came from inside the curtain, and then Chen Guiren's exclamation was heard, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what are you going to do......?"

Yang Yuanba rushed into the inner tent, and saw several eunuchs and imperial doctors running out in horror, he dodged away, only to see Yang Xiong on the bed as thin as bones, his face like gold paper, he had closed his eyes and passed away, several palace women sat in front of the bed and cried, but at this time they all covered their mouths and looked at the prince on the side of the bed with panic.

Yang Ye had already thrown his sword aside, anxiously rummaging for something in a sandalwood cabinet against the wall, although his father died next to him, but he was so anxious that he couldn't care about crying and worshipping his father, he wanted to find the jade seal talisman.

A beautiful woman in her thirties was pushed to the ground, it was Chen Guiren, she got up, tore Yang Ye's arm with all her might, and stopped him, "Prince, you can't mess around!"

"Get out of here!"

Yang Ye kicked her down, Chen Guiren fell to the ground, covered his stomach, his face showed pain, Yang Guang's kick was extremely ruthless, almost kicking her into internal injuries.

Suddenly, Yang Ye found it, he took out a purple jade box, trembling with excitement, he opened the jade box, the box is divided into two layers, the upper layer is the emperor's red pen and jade seal, and the lower layer is ten tiger talismans, this is the emperor's military power, and there is a prepared will next to the jade box, and the crown prince ascends the throne.

Jade seals, tiger talismans and other things are generally kept by Fu Xilang, but Yang Ye knew that when his father was dying during this time, he specially put them beside him, for fear that there would be chaos at the last moment.

Yang Ye held the purple jade box tightly in his arms, and put away the will, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then slowly knelt in front of his father, he kowtowed, and wept: "Please forgive the child for being unfilial, you can't stay by your father's side, wait for the child to eradicate rebellion, stabilize the dynasty, and then ask your father for sin!"

He held the purple jade box and shouted to Yang Yuanba: "Let's go!"

Yang Yuanba knelt down on his knees, silently kowtowed three heads to Yang Xiong's body, got up and followed Yang Ye.
