Empress Chu

Xie Yanlai concentrated on removing the broken stones, and said: "Your Majesty thinks highly of me, take you away? I can't even leave myself."

He raised his head.

"Do you really think that I am the master of the Xie family? I am the master who let me be the master. When I am allowed to be the master, I am the master. When I am not allowed to be the master, I am nothing."

He pointed out.

"Now you and I are in a cage."

Xiao Yu murmured: "Then what should I do, how can I help my sister?"

Xie Yanlai lowered her head and continued to polish her shoes: "You are helping yourself by being yourself."

Xiao Yu's expression is gloomy. He will be himself in the future and stop being self-righteous and smart, but his sister can't come back——

There were small footsteps outside the door, and someone pushed the door in.

Xiao Yu hurriedly turned his head and saw Mr. Qi closing the door.

"Outside, it doesn't seem right." He turned around and whispered.

……

……

The capital city tonight is not as bright as the stars and as noisy as the daytime as before. After learning that Empress Chu had ordered troops to leave Yunzhong County, the capital city announced a curfew.

In the thick night, the doors of every house were closed, and the sound of horseshoes on the street was heard from time to time.

The sudden curfew made everyone tense.

"It's so far away, what are you afraid of, the call came in the blink of an eye, and Empress Chu is not a fairy."

"You don't understand, this is to prevent everyone from gathering and talking."

"Yes, I've heard that some gambling houses even open a handicap, whoever wins the bet between Chuhou and Xie—"

Some people laughed, some were relaxed, and some scolded the absurd. There were footsteps in the noisy street, and the door seemed to be knocked, accompanied by shouts.

"The queen enters the city—closed doors—"

"The queen enters the city—closed doors—"

The shouts were loud, men and women, old and young, galloping past like the wind, and penetrated into every house like the wind.

For a moment, everyone in the house fell into stunned shock.

The queen enters the city?

The queen is here?

Is the queen really a fairy who can shrink into an inch?

Along with the shouts, the sound of horseshoes and footsteps on the street was chaotic, and the sound of fighting was everywhere, and the smell of blood diffused in the hot summer night.

……

……

Standing on the city wall and looking back, the inside of the city is like a burst of lanterns, and the stars are densely packed, as if the entire Dengpan Mountain is burning.

"Tie soldiers have already sneaked into the city." Liang Qiang said.

The lieutenant next to him stood still and said, "Don't worry about some snakes, rats, and bugs."

Liang Qiang looked at the highest point of Dengshan in the city. He wanted to say that he was worried about His Majesty, but he laughed at himself that there was no need for him to worry, the palace must already be heavily guarded.

"Chu bandits are coming here." A soldier guard shouted.

Liang Qiang looked back to the outside of the city, and saw that the burning sky was torn open at some point, and dark clouds rushed in like a flood.

So fast!

How many soldiers and horses did Empress Chu bring!

"Defend the city—" The lieutenant next to him raised his sword and shouted.

Accompanied by his shout, countless arrows rained towards the outside of the city, the oil ignited in the air, a sea of ​​flames rose outside the city, and the sky and the earth were as bright as day.

An army formation appeared in Liang Qiang's line of sight. They were well-armored, heavily armed, and their banners were fierce. The phoenix spreading its wings on the banner seemed to come alive.

Under the neighing and flying fire phoenix, a woman immediately slashed her sword.

She really came, not bluffing, not making a fuss—

She swung the long knife, and there was a roar in the sea of ​​flames, and countless flying stones were thrown at the city wall under the city gate.

"Siege—"

……

……

It seemed that countless heavy hammers fell to the ground, and the whole capital trembled, and the children hiding in the house and being hugged by their parents screamed.

The sound of fighting just outside the door has disappeared, replaced by the sound of fighting that seems to be far away in the sky, engulfing everyone like a tsunami.

"Are we going to die?" the children cried.

Young children experience this for the first time.

And it's not the first time for adults.

Many people recalled the nightmare a few years ago, when many houses were set ablaze and devastated.

The adults hugged the children tightly: "No."

This time was different from that time. That riot broke out suddenly, and this time the queen issued a warning.

In the night, under the cover of the sound of fighting, many people no longer had any scruples to comfort the children and comfort themselves.

"It is the queen who is punishing rape and eliminating evil, and will not harm us."

……

……

When the sound of fighting in the city started, Xie Yanfang was finishing his medicine and was about to fall into a drowsiness. At that moment, his gloomy eyes lit up.

"So fast," he said.

Cai Bo looked at Xie Qiye who rushed in, and he couldn't believe it: "Is it a bluff? How many soldiers and horses? Impossible tens of thousands!"

Xie Qiye didn't speak, Xie Yanfang had already shaken her head: "How could it be, if she has the momentum, it is inevitable."

Xie Qiye said angrily: "Even if she came to the capital without anyone noticing, she will never succeed!"

Cai Bo asked curiously, "How did she get here? Who helped her?"

Xie Yanfang didn't pay any attention to what they said next, and her eyes dimmed again as she leaned on the pillow: "It's a pity, I can't see with my own eyes——"

Before he finished speaking, people fell silent.

Xie Qiye shouted anxiously, "Yan Fang—"

Cai Bo put Xie Yanfang's clothes on and said softly, "My lord is asleep."

Xie Qiye also knows Xie Yanfang's current situation, even if he has all kinds of abilities, when the time comes, he can only sleep when the sky falls and the earth falls.

"This is all caused by the Queen of Chu!" He said bitterly, looking at the young master who was sleeping peacefully on the bed, "If it wasn't for the injury in the hunting ground, the young master would have personally raised the knife and beheaded the Queen of Chu at this moment."

Just like beheading the third prince in the chaos army.

Cai Bo smiled suddenly.

Why are you laughing at this time!Xie Qiye turned his head and stared at him.

"I think tonight is similar to that time." Cai Bo said with a smile, his expression a little sad, "I don't know where it is today."

Xie Qiye did not forget that night, and that night was not a good memory. For Xie, all plans fell apart with the death of the crown prince and princess.

"Today will never be like last night." Xie Qiye stood up, looked outside, his eyes were cold, and he said harshly, "This time, the sky will collapse for her!"

Empress Chu is just attached to the emperor, if there is no emperor, what is she?Just ants and snakes!

Their Xie family is different, even if there is no emperor, they can still turn the clouds upside down!

……

……

Even the courts could not stop the sound of fighting, and the entire capital was full of flames.

Eunuch Qi stood on the steps outside the palace, looked around, felt the vibration of the ground, it seemed that thousands of troops were rushing into the capital, and it seemed that only the soldiers and guards in the imperial city were rushing.

Footsteps came from behind.

Eunuch Qi turned his head and saw Xiao Yu wearing a dragon robe and holding a dragon flag.

"Your Majesty, what is this?" Eunuch Qi greeted him hurriedly.

Xiao Yu said: "Eunuch Qi, I will go out like this to invite everyone to welcome the queen, and those who go with me to be brave will reward thousands of households!"

Eunuch Qi looked at the boy whose head almost reached his shoulders, his eyes were bright in the night, he was no longer the shivering child hiding in the dark.

"Your Majesty, don't be reckless." He said kindly.

When Xiao Yu wanted to say something, there was another sneer behind him.

"You save it."

Eunuch Qi and Xiao Yu turned their heads and saw Xie Yanlai coming out.

"You don't have to do anything, and you can't call anyone." Xie Yan said, stretching out her hand to take the dragon flag from his arms.

At this point, the footsteps outside the palace gate became heavier and heavier.

"Your Majesty—the last general is waiting to escort you." A voice came from outside the door, "Please open the palace door."

This is the guards from the outer city coming, and a team of guards from the inner city are also rushing at this time.

"Your Majesty, the Chu thieves are attacking the city gate." The leader general said, "Please dodge quickly, Your Majesty."

Hearing these words, Xiao Yu not only didn't retreat, but couldn't help but want to step forward——

"Really?" he asked.

But at the next moment, someone grabbed him and threw him back, and at the same time, his eyes were shaking, and with a puff, Xiao Yu saw the dragon flag stuck in the chest of the running general.

The general looked shocked, and said "You—" the next moment the knife in the hand behind his back fell to the ground with a clang.

what happened?

It all happened very suddenly.

Eunuch Qi didn't hesitate at all, hugged Xiao Yu and shouted, "Escort—"

This cry also made the soldiers and guards behind the dead general recover from their sluggishness, and they drew their swords without any concealment: "Kill——"

The dragon flag fluttered, and the light of the knife flew randomly, and the bright yellow dragon flag was dyed red in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Yu was not afraid of being hugged by Eunuch Qi, and he stretched out his hand to support the old man, staring at the flying dragon flag.

Sure enough, as Xie Yanlai said, he and he were both in a cage, and now the guards were going to slaughter their prey.

Xiao Yu looked at Xie Yanlai who was fighting among the guards, flipping the dragon flag with one hand and a long knife with the other, rolling in the hunter's hands like a dragon, and the dozen or so guards who surrounded him fell to the ground one after another.

No matter how brave Jiaolong is, one person can reach ten people, so what about 20 people, 30 people, or a hundred people?

Xiao Yu looked around, his footsteps were chaotic, countless guards came rushing, he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to promise to make the seducer work hard for him?

The flying dragon flag was inserted into the corpse on the ground. The dragon flag had turned into a blood flag, and the person holding the dragon flag took off his mask.

"I'm Xie Yanlai—" he shouted loudly, looking at the guards rushing around, "—where are the imperial guards?—"

Xie Yanlai?

The name startled the guards.

Especially the few guards running behind.

They don't know what happened, why did the inner palace suddenly start killing?Is this the arrival of Empress Chu's troops, or someone else's?

It's so chaotic tonight, and their minds are also in a state of confusion. They don't know whether to stop or rush up, and what happens after they go up?Who to kill?

Until they heard this shout, this name, they suddenly came back to their senses.

"Thank you Yan for coming!"
