since your farewell

When Qingfeng arrived at the north gate? The city tower, it was already pitch black under the city tower, like one by one? The statues stood on the stone road, and even a face could not be seen. The cold? Iron scales covered from head to toe, making people feel The scalp is numb.

She roughly clicked the head of the people. There are seven or eight hundred "heijia" here. Zheng Jizhi probably made arrangements at other city gates. As the princess expected, most of the troops were concentrated. Here, she couldn't help but feel a little worried, if not? The general must come from here if he wants to enter the palace, but... can he last until then?

It's fine if it's just an ordinary guard, she still has a bit of confidence in capturing Zheng Jizhi alive, but these black armors, their thin necks are all covered by iron scales, and they can't even be killed? They are very powerful in combat.

Even so, she still led a hundred guards to confront him, trying to find any flaws in it.

Zheng Jizhi stood at the back, watching them with deep eyes. Hei Jia's performance was very satisfying.

The iron armor is very tough, and the damage done by ordinary swords can be ignored, but the guards who only wear armor are living human beings. The meat target is less than a cup of tea. More than a dozen guards died, almost all of them were torn apart, and the death condition was very tragic. The black armor under Zheng Jizhi was pushed down by Qingfeng with brute force, and slowly got up again.

Seeing this, Qingfeng had no choice but to let the remaining guards return to the palace. Fortunately, these black armors moved a little slower, so she was able to close the city gate smoothly.

"Hand over Rong'er, the truth can be considered to save your life."

This was said to Qingfeng? Qingfeng sneered, Zheng Rong died long ago? Under the sword of the princess, but? She didn't intend to provoke him at the moment?.

"Didn't the prime minister come here to denounce the princess for usurping the throne? Why are you doing something irrelevant at this moment?"

A cold light flashed in Zheng Jizhi's eyes,

"Death is imminent? You have to be stubborn."

They? It's nothing more than relying on the fact that the "Hei Jia" who is all over the floor is no longer a living person? He can't understand people?Qingfeng didn't talk to him anymore? The most important thing is to go back to the palace and tell the princess about the situation.

There was also a guard who went to the palace to report with her. They went to check the situation at other gates, and their expressions were even more frightened.

"Princess, the number of people besieging the palace gate is still increasing. They are tricking young and strong people to drink the medicine. Now the capital is in chaos."

Zhou Nan's lips were a little pale, Zheng Jizhi's rebellion was expected, but their ruthlessness was obviously beyond the range that ordinary people could bear, they were out-and-out lunatics.

Misfortunes never come singly. Before she could think of a way to deal with it, a puff of black smoke rose from the sky over the east gate. The smoke billowed, followed by a deafening crash.

"not good!"

Zhou Nan hurriedly led everyone to the east gate.

"boom--"

Behind the east gate stood a team of guards. They used a long wooden buckle behind the city gate to resist the impact of outsiders. Four or five guards brought buckets to the city gate. ? Splashing water.

"Ahem... I'm afraid I won't last long like this."

Zhou Nan coughed again and again from the smoke.

"Princess, leave it to the guards here, you go to the palace to take refuge first."

Qingfeng asked Mingyue to take her away, and then led the guards to move all the large stones that could be used in the palace to the back of the gate, trying to block the attacks of the puppets outside.

"what should I do?"

Mingyue was in a hurry, those black-armored villagers could not get in, they had nothing to do now, but those city gates couldn't be blocked for a long time, I'm afraid they would be broken by Zheng Jizhi before the young general returned to the capital.

The little wolf who is extremely sensitive to the external environment got out of the corner and was caught by Zhou Nan. After staring at it for a while, she suddenly ordered to the guard,

"Go and see the Hyogo, the last time the emperor used it in the imperial forest? Do you still have the firecrackers?"

"Yes".

That time Zhou Sheng had someone make a batch of firecrackers, and because of the assassination, except for the used firecracker, the rest were all dusted up, and there was no chance of seeing the sun again. Ordinary bows and arrows cannot penetrate iron, but firecrackers may be able to.

"Princess, where are you going?"

Zhou Nan carried Zhanhong to the imperial garden. There are many trees in the imperial garden. Zhanhong's small size can be used for concealment. Even if it slipped out, the black armor outside would not be able to recognize it .

"Go, don't come back again".

Zhou Nan let it go, but its paws kept firmly grasping her sleeves, as if it understood her words and was unwilling to leave.

"Ouch-"

The small blue eyes looked at her without blinking, full of trust and dependence, she turned her face away, and cut off her sleeves cruelly, Zheng Jizhi's target was her, and no one would pay attention to a single bird in the chaos "Wolf cub, but? If the wolf cub follows her, it will become very dangerous."

What's more dangerous? It's Situ Che. If her wounds are opened and the wolf cubs can't help licking her blood, everything will be exposed. She will never allow this to happen.

Zhan Hong didn't die? He still wanted to run towards her, but she drove him away with a sword. Mingyue was a little bit reluctant, but she didn't say anything in the end. The little wolf was given to the princess by the young general. The princess has the right to dispose.

See? It hid in a bush and remained motionless. Zhou Nan led Mingyue away from the imperial garden with a few light steps.

There are still many concubines and young princesses and princes in the harem, all of them turned pale with fright. Zhou Nan can't send people out of the palace now, so he can only comfort them to stay in the bedroom and let Zhang Yong take some The eunuch is guarding there. Zheng Jizhi's target is her. If he doesn't catch her first, he won't take care of others first.

"Princess, there is still a batch of firecrackers in Hyogo! About [-] arrows?".

"it is good".

Zhou Nan selected a few riders with accurate shots from the guards, and took the firecrackers with Qingfeng to the west and south gates where there were relatively few people.

He personally aimed at one of the black armors and took a headshot.

"it works!"

Qingfeng's eyes lit up. With the energy of a firecracker, the arrowheads could pierce armor. The puppet whose head was shot by the princess quickly fell down and exploded.

But I couldn't be happy for a long time. There are only [-] arrows here. Even if one arrow hits one, it is far from enough to destroy these puppets. What's more, the number of puppets is still increasing.

"The top priority is how to get out of here."

Qingfeng intends to use the west?south gate?as a breakthrough point. As long as he can take Zhou Nan out, Zheng Jizhi has the ability to control the puppets and catch them.

A team of people and horses cleaned up the west and south gates, and finally the puppets were almost killed. Only then did Zhou Nan find that the outside of the palace gate was full of hay and bellflowers, and a lot of white wine was spilled. Zheng Jizhi's ? He held a torch and set the hay on fire, and the flames engulfed the entire southwest gate in an instant.

No one wants to go out, and no one wants to go in.

The flames soared into the sky, and black mist and thick smoke surrounded the palace wall.

"Does he want to force me to go through the north gate?".

Zhou Nan covered his mouth and nose and stepped back.

Seeing that it was getting late, her expression was already very tired, Qingfeng pursed her lips, the inner core of the city gate is made of iron plates, and the city wall is also strong, with such a burning method, it will take at least a day to close the gate? burnt.

"Princess, there is still a hard battle to fight here, you go to the palace to rest for a while and think of a way."

"Yes, yes, right, I can't go out at all at once, my body is important."

Mingyue also followed Qingfeng and said, if this continues, the princess may fall down before Zheng Jizhi comes in.

"This palace knows",

Zhou Nan sighed, she really hated her frail body, so she had to go back to the hall and lean on the desk with her eyes closed.

Qingfeng told the guards to return to her after arranging defenses. Now that the situation was critical, she dared not leave Zhou Nan.

When it was completely dark, she stood behind Zhou Nan with her sword in hand, her sharp eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, her whole body on guard.

It is precisely because of her that the shadows in the darkness never dare to approach Zhou Nan. After watching Qingfeng fight with those black armors at the North Gate, the poisonous king dare not act rashly. This person's martial arts are far superior to his. above.

Fortunately for Zhou Nan, he snorted secretly and wandered around the palace like a ghost. His mission tonight was to rescue Zheng Rong.

In fact, Zheng Jizhi suspected that something bad had happened to Zheng Rong, otherwise why would Zhou Nan not bring out Zheng Rong to negotiate terms with him, but Zheng Jizhi needed definite information, since it was his son after all.

A few worms ran out from the sleeves, and the Poison King followed the worms to the harem, and dug up Zheng Rong's body in a piece of turned soil. The black mask couldn't show any expression, but the poison There was obviously no sympathy or something in Wang's eyes? Feelings.

They helped the Zheng family, just to overthrow the Zhou regime, and it would be good if Zheng Rong died, so that Zheng Jizhi would be even crazier, and Da Zhou would be destroyed faster.

When Zheng Rong's body was brought to Zheng Jizhi, the ruthless Prime Minister finally shed a tear.

"Rong'er..."

The dead body buried in the mud for a day and a night is not good-looking, especially on a hot summer day, Zheng Rong already has a rotten smell on his body, and the poisonous king covered his mouth and nose when he brought him over.

But Zheng Jizhi didn't realize it, he touched his son's festered cheek with one hand, as if Zheng Rong was not dead, but just lying there with his eyes closed.

"Father will give you revenge, you... have a good rest."

Then, he stood up slowly, eyes full of scarlet,

"Send an order to the palace, Zhou Nan's life is worth ten thousand taels of gold!"

The news spread quickly, and it didn't take long for a guard to report to the princess in the palace.

Zhou Nan could no longer fall asleep, so she simply got up from the desk,

"It seems that he has already discovered that Zheng Rong was beheaded by Ben Gong."

Her tone was indifferent, and there was no sign of regret.

"if--"

"will not!"

Knowing what she was going to say, it was rare for Qingfeng to interrupt her. She had promised the young general that she would never let the princess have trouble.

"People's hearts are unpredictable."

Knowing this well, how could Zhou Nan not know that at this critical moment, Zheng Jizhi's reward might be more lethal than those black-armored puppets.

As if to confirm her guess, the guard who came to tell her the news had already shown her a butcher knife. All this happened suddenly, Qingfeng was farther away from her than the guard, and Zhou Nan couldn't defend herself.

In the blink of an eye, there was a slender and petite figure standing in front of her, pushing her away from danger.

"Moon!"

Zhou Nan turned around to catch the small body. Almost at the same time, Qingfeng drew his sword and slashed at the guard.

However, a flower of blood was blooming on Mingyue's chest, and the long sword plunged straight into her heart. The little girl, who was always alive and kicking, turned pale at this moment.

"It's my fault..."

The eyes were blurred, Zhou Nan couldn't control his tears, falling drop by drop in front of Mingyue.

"Princess, you cannot surrender".

Mingyue saw that she had the intention to trade her own life for everyone in the palace to survive, so she grabbed her sleeve and did not let go.Zhou Nan raised his head and wanted to ask for help, but where is there any help in the palace at this moment?

"You promised your servant...to live well...even...even just? One day...Mingyue wants you to live well."

"it is good……"

She burst into tears.

"The servant can't be by your side in the future, can you? Don't be self-willed... Take good care of yourself... But? Is there a little? The general is here... The servant is also at ease."

See? She agreed, and Mingyue smiled softly.

"How much does the servant know? The general is... the princess... the servant will not force you?".

Zhou Nan froze for a moment. She never told Mingyue that Situ Che was Changhong.But Mingyue is not stupid. She was there when the eyes of the two wolves changed color. It was indeed a test to let Zhou Nan kill Changhong to detoxify. She still hoped that Zhou Nan's poison could be resolved, just like Situ Qingyun protected Just like Stuart, they just have different positions.

"I'm sorry, Mingyue".

"Princess don't have to say sorry... I know that you are doing it for Mingyue's sake... to be able to meet the princess... is Mingyue's greatest luck."

She turned her eyes to Qingfeng who was standing still beside her, thinking she had a very fierce expression on her face,

"If I don't take the princess out intact, even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go? You."

Qingfeng was not impatient this time, but said softly with red eyes,

"I took the princess out intact, don't you let me go?"

"Huh... I think you just owe a beating."

After saying this sentence in a calm manner, Mingyue closed her eyes.

The author has something to say: no more nonsense, the young general will return to Beijing in the next chapter.
