The two Dongyu Guards faced off.

Both sides drew their weapons, and the cold light of swords flashed.

The concubines and princesses in the palace screamed and retreated to the corner.

Ma Chuyi said coldly, "Captain Lou Yu, we meet again! You abused your power to suppress your subordinates, and I, Ma, will file a complaint with the emperor!"

Lou Yuxiao shouted, "Ma Chuyi, are you going to disobey the Queen Mother's order? How many heads in your Ma family can bear the consequences?"

Ma Chuyi firmly stood on the side of Princess Haiyan and her husband, because the emperor was behind them!

The Ma family is loyal to the emperor and to the Northern Wing.

Now that Emperor Mingde has been poisoned, he only recognizes one thing, which is to protect the emperor with his life. Even if the emperor falls, he will protect the person designated by the emperor to succeed him with his life.

Ma Chuyi waved the spear in his hand and said, "The matter has not been investigated clearly yet. If anyone wants to take Princess Haiyan and her husband away, first ask the spear in my hand if it agrees!"

He waved the spear twice, holding it across the middle, protecting Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan behind him.

Lou Yuxiao drew his sword and approached step by step.

Ma Chuyi said in a deep voice, "Princess and Prince Consort, step back!"

"Okay." Cen Yuan smiled, reached out and took Shi Anxia's hand, then obediently stepped aside.

Both husband and wife looked calm, without any sign of panic.

The Ninth Prince suddenly ran over along the wall, reached out and took Cen Yuan's other hand, "Charcoal Seller, I'm Pighead Nine."

Cen Yuan looked down at the chubby little kid, but didn't pull his hand out of his.

Shi Anxia knew that the Ninth Prince was using his actions to declare his opposition to the Queen Mother.

It is unwise to take sides at this time, Pighead Nine. No wonder you died early in your previous life.

At this moment, in the center of the field, Lou Yuxiao and Ma Chuyi were on the verge of a fight.

The first to take action was Lou Yuxiao.

He turned his wrist slightly, and the cold light of the sword drew an arc, bringing out a series of subtle but sharp sword sounds.

Ma Chuyi was as steady as a mountain, not dodging or deflecting. He swung his spear and actually met the enemy head-on, with a slight gust of wind, and the tip of the spear drew a perfect arc in the air.

The arcs met, the spear tip and the sword blade collided, making a crisp metal collision sound. Sparks flew everywhere, shaking the hearts of the spectators around.

Lou Yuxiao wanted to kill Ma Chuyi even more.

Since when, everyone only knows that there is Ma Chuyi in the East Yuwei. Does anyone still remember him, the Yuwei leader Lou Yuxiao?

The bandit case in the Huaiyang Marquis's mansion, the case of the imperial examination substitution, the case of the Six Gods Temple, the overthrow of Princess Chanyu's mansion, the case of Ying Liangchen, the case of the Ye family, etc. No matter where the Dongyu Guard should or should not appear, if Cen Yuan is there, the Dongyu Guard must be there, and if the Dongyu Guard is there, Ma Chuyi must be there.

His position as the head of the Feathered Guards had long been insignificant.

He personally arranged for the assassination of Fengnu Anxia in the Six Gods Temple. As a result, not only did the assassination fail, but the entire Six Gods Temple was destroyed.

The mission was carried out by the Dongyu Guard led by Ma Chuyi.

What a huge irony! What a huge shame!

Later, Lou Yuxiao reported this to Emperor Mingde. However, Emperor Mingde said, "From now on, the East Wing Guard will be divided into two parts. One part will be responsible for daily affairs and you will be in charge of it. The other part will be responsible for emergencies and will be managed by Ma Chuyi. He will report to you afterwards."

What is an emergency? Isn't it just that the prince consort is calling for someone at the last minute?

The Dongyu Guard actually became the private guard of the prince consort!

Still reporting! Ma Chuyi did report it, but is this something to report?

Just over an hour ago, he had put Ma Chuyi in a cell on the grounds of arbitrarily mobilizing personnel to handle private matters, but now he has walked out in broad daylight.

The more Lou Yuxiao thought about it, the angrier he got. His long sword turned into silver lightning and went straight for the opponent's vital point. In an instant, the spring breeze blew the willows, gentle but deadly; the autumn wind swept the leaves, fierce and unmatched.

Ma Chuyi was not in a hurry, he swept his spear across, the tip of the spear was like a dragon spitting out a pearl, and its sharp edge was exposed.

The flashes of swords and the shadows of guns interweave into thrilling pictures.

In fact, the two had fought with swords and spears half a year ago.

At that time, Lou Yuxiao was still able to handle the situation with ease and could always defeat Ma Chuyi after fighting for fifty rounds.

After all, Ma Chuyi was young. But the current Ma Chuyi is no longer the Ma Chuyi of that time.

Ever since he had a competition with Cen Yuan in the Dongyuwei arena, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds under Cen Yuan's guidance.

Moreover, he is now also a teacher at Yunqi Academy. Whether he teaches students or not is another matter, but it is true that he often exchanges ideas with Cen Yuan.

The difference between Cen Yuan and Lou Yuxiao is as huge as heaven and earth.

Ma Chuyi is no longer on the same level as Lou Yuxiao in terms of mentality, gun skills, and strategy.

But he remained unchanged in the face of all changes. The spear seemed to have life in his hand, sometimes turning into a protective barrier, impermeable; sometimes turning into an arrow of attack, unstoppable.

With a clang, Lou Yuxiao's sword fell to the ground.

Ma Chuyi pointed his spear at his throat. The tip of the spear pierced his skin, and a trace of blood oozed out.

But he did not stab again, nor did he retract the gun.

"Wow! That's great! Brother Ma taught me how to practice with a spear!" The Ninth Prince let go of Cen Yuan's hand and clapped happily, "I think a spear looks better than a sword! I want to learn how to practice with a spear!"

This was tantamount to a slap in the face in public, and Lou Yuxiao's expression looked extremely ugly.

The Empress Dowager glanced at Lou Yuxiao, cursed him as a waste in her heart, frowned, straightened her back, and said leisurely, "You want evidence, right? Call the imperial physician."

Upon hearing this, Ma Chuyi put away his spear.

Shi Anxia, ​​who had been silent all the time, suddenly raised her head. Without deliberately concealing her sharpness, her eyes were deep and calm, and she just looked straight at the empress dowager.

The two empresses from different periods finally made eye contact. At this moment, it was as if the long river of history was rushing, building an invisible bridge between them.

Shi Anxia curled her lips slightly, with a barely perceptible sneer spreading across the corners of her mouth.

At this moment, the Queen Mother was extremely jealous of the legendary Phoenix Girl.

is her!

It's her!

There was no mark of women in history, but it started with Queen Dowager Hyejeong.

This woman died of old age. The enlightened monk clasped his hands together and praised her glorious life, her concern for the country, congratulated her on her good deeds, and wished her a smooth next life.

All of this is what she has been pursuing all her life.

She had seen Master Jiyuan say in her dream, "The Queen Mother saved the country from the brink of disaster and saved millions of people from fire and water. She is a person of great merit. She is the blessing of Beiyi and the people. May the Queen Mother get what she wants in the next life, not be stained by the wind and snow, not be deceived by rumors, and live a peaceful life."

Empress Dowager Jiqing had dreamed of this scene more than once.

She always thought that this "Queen Mother" was herself!

Otherwise, why do I always dream about it?

She thought that this either happened in her previous life or had not happened in this life yet. She never thought that the so-called queen mother was actually the Queen Mother Huizheng, Shi Anxia!

At this time, the imperial doctors came in one after another.

Empress Dowager Jiqing was extremely furious. "Check! Check for me! See who has the remnants of Mojiu on their hands or bodies."

Shi Anxia raised her eyebrows and looked at Cen Yuan.

In fact, there was no need for a real investigation, it was just a formality for the Imperial Hospital. Then an imperial physician announced, "There was black pigeon powder on Princess Haiyan's sleeves!"
