The Lofty Fierce Consort

Chapter 170

? The night is dark and the wind is high, and the crescent moon is looming behind the dark clouds.

The East Palace was extremely noisy everywhere, with cries and screams and messy footsteps everywhere, reflecting the light of the torches in the courtyard, adding a somewhat urgent atmosphere.

The king of Jin hurriedly ordered people to search for the prince, and even the concubines and concubines of the prince were checked one by one, but there was still no trace of the prince. King Jin knew that the prince must be in the east palace, because there was a secret line to report that the prince had rested in the east palace, but now it was silent and disappeared.

This time the King of Jin forced the palace, it was not the palace of Emperor Xi, because in the eyes of the King of Jin, Emperor Xi was no longer able to do it, but it was just dragging the day. His purpose of forcing the palace is to kill the prince. As long as he can take advantage of his preparations to wipe out the power of the prince and the empress in the palace, other things are naturally easy to deal with. It is not impossible to put a hat on the prince for murdering the Emperor Xi. After all, the result is victory. The person writes.

Unexpectedly, the prince was nowhere to be seen, and another group of guards attacked at the gate of the East Palace, shouting, “Your Majesty is awake”.

Seeing all this happened, King Jin felt like he was being poured from the beginning to the end by a basin of cold water, and couldn’t help but be shocked. I thought about a lot in a moment, the mechanism was exhausted, the momentum was very good, and something went wrong at the key point. And the emperor father actually woke up, if he knew what he was doing, would he let him go?

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. King Jin’s eyes were about to split, and he was able to resist the irritability and restlessness in his heart, and ordered the subordinates next to him to go down and contain the people, and to confirm whether the news was true, and he sent someone on the other side. Continue to search for the prince. As long as he can kill the prince in this short period of time, he is not finished.

There is nothing wrong with King Jin’s thinking, as long as the prince is dead, there is still much room for him to turn around. For example, he could tell Emperor Xi that because he suspected that the prince had murdered Emperor Xi, he would force the palace in a hurry. This is why the rebels attacked the East Palace instead of the Zichen Palace.

In addition, Emperor Xi always prefers the King of Jin. In the case of the prince’s death, he is likely to choose to protect his excellent son. After all, the man is dead, and the only suitable heir is King Jin.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, and King Jin, who stood still, thought a lot. Nowadays, there is only one success or failure, as long as the prince dies.

Yes, as long as the prince dies!

Someone ran over in a panic, uncontrollable joy in their voice.

“The prince, the prince is dead…”

“what did you say?”

“His Royal Highness, the prince is dead, in the courtyard…”

King Jin’s heart was tense, and he hurried to the place with the incoming people. After arriving, I saw the prince lying in blood under a flowerbed in the garden.

He personally stepped forward to identify it, and tried to snort again.

The prince really died.

King Jin’s hand trembled slightly. He had no time to think about who killed the prince, and how the corpse of the prince would appear in the place that had been searched several times. He hurriedly ordered a few words to his subordinates. Go to the gate of the East Palace.

At the gate of the East Palace, the confrontation continued.

The two teams wore the same armor, but belonged to two different camps, and the atmosphere was strangely opposing. The team guarding the gate looked strange and seemed hesitant in their actions. As for the large group of people who were opposing them, it seemed that they were coming aggressively, but apart from shouting a few words, “Your Majesty is awake,” they did nothing. It seems that both sides have their own scruples.

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and King Jin walked over quickly, and someone beside him was already reporting what happened.

King Jin looked surprised and mixed with surprises at the other’s leading soldier, and asked, “I take this seriously, the father really woke up?”

One person walked out of the opponent’s crowd, and it was Commander Zhang.

He had a weird expression, and said: “Your Majesty is already sober, knowing that there is a disturbance in the palace, and the special subordinates have come to suppress it. His Royal Highness, please order these people to lay down their weapons.”

Everyone around King Jin looked at each other.

King Jin exclaimed with excitement: “You are Commander Zhang.” It seems that the identity of the other party was confirmed, and he confirmed that this person would not cheat. He hurriedly said: “Don’t all put down your weapons!” Sword.

Everyone was stunned, and never expected King Jin to be so refreshing. Commander Zhang was aware of something, and he didn’t have time to think about it for a while. Before he came, Emperor Xi said very clearly, don’t hurt King Jin. Commander Zhang could be regarded as the confidant of Emperor Xi, and he naturally understood the complicated thoughts in his Majesty’s heart.

He was just a servant, and he didn’t want to guess more about the thoughts of the people above. Since Emperor Xi said not to hurt King Jin, he naturally had his reason.

He was considering how to treat King Jin, whether he was the leader of the rebel army or the honor of the prince. At this moment, heresy occurred.

No one knows where this arrow comes from.

This is a very ordinary arrow made of fine iron.

Jet black arrow body, sharp arrow.

So many people gathered here, but they shot directly at King Jin, and directly hit King Jin’s head in the stunned eyes of Commander Zhang opposite.

With great strength, he shot King Jin off half of his head on the spot.

Everyone was stunned.

A sharp scream cut through the night sky, “His Royal Highness Jin is dead—”

“His Royal Highness King Jin is dead—”

This side was still in chaos, and a few people ran out from the East Palace over there, shouting hurriedly, “His Royal Highness is dead.”

The scene suddenly became more chaotic.

In a shadow not far from the gate of the East Palace, a person quietly disappeared. No one saw this person. It is estimated that only Yue’er in the sky saw the deadly arrow just now, and it was actually shot by this person.

It’s just that who cares about this, no one cares.

Outside the palace, secret battles are also taking place.

Since King Jin personally took people to the palace, there was naturally someone who planned the overall situation with him to make plans and strategize, and this person was Xu Xiangrong.

An inconspicuous private house, no one knows that this place is actually the center of this palace change event. All instructions are issued from here, and from time to time, horses galloping in the dark night rushing here, passing all kinds of news and Outgoing.

The house is brightly lit, Xu Xiangrong is neatly dressed, sitting behind the bookcase, looking like he intends to stay awake all night.

But it is true, who can sleep at this time.

This private house also gathered several Jin Wang’s staff, all around the corner, or anxious, it is estimated that only Xu Xiangrong can maintain a stable mood at this time. But seeing his fingers keep squeezing and releasing, and tapping the table from time to time, he knew that his heart was not as calm as it was on the surface.

Success or failure lies here.

This time, Xu Xiangrong had estimated that nearly 80% of the hopes would be fulfilled. Once it succeeds, the status of the Xu family will be extraordinary again. There is only one experience for dozens of years of planning, and Xu Xiangrong’s heart is full of excitement and excitement. It’s just that he is always a stranger, even if he is happy, he doesn’t want to show it, but his whole face looks extremely cold.

Probably only Yan Ting could see the turmoil in his heart from the darker and darker colors in his eyes.

Is it really going to be?

Even if Yan Ting had always been indifferent to anything, it was unavoidable to be a little stunned.

It’s not that Xu Xiangrong has never heard of his grand cause, but he really participated in it, not to mention the thoughts involved. On the eve of the arrival of success, Yan Ting was a little surprised besides some surprises.

“There is probably a mess in the palace right now.”

Xu Xiangrong stood up, came to the window and looked at the dark night outside. There was a small smile at the corner of his mouth, and the quiet moonlight and the light in the room mixed on his face with a strange color.

“The people in the Yasukuni Palace are probably still asleep at the moment. They don’t know what’s going on in the palace at this time. It’s useless even if someone goes to tell the news, and no one in the palace can get out.”

For this day, Xu Xiangrong planned for a long time. All the palaces can instigate rebellions. People have been sent to ambush outside several palace gates, including the street where the Yasukuni Palace is located. It has also been surrounded by people in secret. . Xu Xiangrong used all the power that he could use, and success or failure was the only one.

But in Xu Xiangrong’s heart, there was no failure, because he really couldn’t find the reason for failure.

“Waiting until tomorrow morning, everyone will be surprised!” When he said this, Xu Xiangrong laughed lowly, and did not stop for a long time.

On the other side, in a mansion, King Jing and Luo Huaiyuan were sitting chatting.

King Jing remained silent, but his fingers kept rubbing against the edge of the tea cup, while Luo Huaiyuan spoke to him a little bit in his mouth. Just seeing the eyes of these two people constantly looking out the door, and the topic that is getting farther and farther, you can know that they are actually not so calm.

“Why hasn’t this Yan Barbarian come back! And what happened to the nail you buried beside the prince? Can Grand Doctor Zhou control the timing?” Luo Huaiyuan finally couldn’t help asking.

No one answered him.

King Jing has always been calm and self-control, and now his heart is tumbling endlessly. Decades of hard work only depends on the present. This is the easiest and most convenient way for him to negotiate with King Yun for a long time. The method was naturally thought of by Luo Huaiyuan, and he was the only one who would use such a method that was not fair and honest, and even had some abuse.

When discussing with King Jing, Luo Huaiyuan was still afraid that the other party would not agree. He didn’t expect that this seemingly serious fifth was actually not serious at all, and he knew how to use special methods when and when.

Luo Huaiyuan naturally did not know that King Jing already had someone in his heart who wanted to protect. If King Jing was the only one, he would probably not be so “active” according to his personality, but with her and two children, how could he bear it anymore? She is leaving with two children?

What’s wrong with no compromises! He is just trying to find a way out!

I don’t know how long it has passed, but there was a movement outside the door, and a burly man with a face and a beard walked in.

“how is it?”

King Jing, who had always been indifferent, rarely showed a look of concern, which made Yan Manzi feel a little strange in his heart. I wanted to make a few ridicules. Firstly, King Yun was here, and secondly, he also knew that this was a very moment, but it was not funny.

“Fortunately not insulting one’s life!” Yan Manzi arched his hands.

Luo Huaiyuan suddenly felt a relief in his heart, and King Jing couldn’t help expressing his joy.

…

Xu Xiangrong and Yan Ting described the various situations after King Jin ascended the throne in the future. This person who has always been low-key and calm, on the eve of facing success, couldn’t help but forget his form.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and there seemed to be fire outside.

The butler stepped in anxiously, his expression condensed and panic implicit.

“Sir, we, we seem to be surrounded here.”

The finger on Xu Xiangrong’s thumb was crushed by him with a ‘pop’.

“Be surrounded?” He was full of disbelief.

Not to mention that Xu Xiangrong didn’t believe it, and the housekeeper didn’t believe it, but suddenly a group of people in black appeared to rush into this house. Although there were a lot of guards in the house, it was blocked back, and several doors were closed. Hearing the movement outside, I know that there are not many people here.

As he spoke, the noise outside became louder, and it seemed that someone had broken in and was fighting with the guards in the house.

Xu Xiangrong’s heart couldn’t help but sink.

Who the **** is it?

On the street outside the house stood a group of people, all dressed in dark. The first one looks like a little forty, with a pale face and no need to have a white and smooth skin, except for the fine lines on the corners of the eyes.

“Take a look at it to me, don’t let any of them run away.” Compared with the chaos in the house, this place seemed a lot quieter. The night was dark and everything was silent. No one would have thought that such a fierce battle would take place in the capital, and the soldiers of the Five Cities and the officers and soldiers who patrolled at night would know nothing.

This must be grateful to the owner of this house, if it were not for their proper arrangement, these people would not dare to be so fanciful at this time.

Following this middle-aged man’s order, the people around him immediately dispersed, leaving only more than a dozen people still guarding him.

One of the big guys who seemed to be the leader said: “Don’t worry, Father Fu, this place has been surrounded so that even a fly can’t fly out, so I won’t miss one.”

Fushun smiled and arched his hands: “This is the best way. Thank you for your help.”

The big man said something he didn’t dare to take it seriously, and the two of them turned their attention to the opposite house.

The fighting was extremely tragic, and all the people who came seemed to be martial arts masters, and Xu Xiangrong’s men were quickly defeated. There are screams everywhere, all fallen corpses, and people can’t help but feel the heart and soul.

The visitor has approached the center of the entire house, which is the study room where Xu Xiangrong is located. Xu Xiangrong has not many men left, the only ones are in this yard, and there are ten more people.

Xu Xiangrong always cherishes his life, and on weekdays this house is covered with guards. But this time is not the other time. At this time of pressing the palace, all the capable people on his hand are sent to the palace, and there are only ordinary guards left in this house, but who would have thought that at this time, there would be someone Attack here.

The housekeepers who had always looked like honest people also took up a big knife and fought against the man in black. And Yan Ting, for some reason, also held Xu Xiangrong behind him with a weapon.

Xu Xiangrong put one hand behind him, seemingly calm, but in fact his vest was already sweaty. He doesn’t know how to use weapons. In the past, his safety was guarded. He didn’t expect to face life concerns when this situation was delicate.

The housekeeper reported the name of Chengenhou Shizi in a hurry, but the other party ignored them. These people seemed to be well-trained, and their eyes were calm and quiet. It seemed that it didn’t matter whether they were Chengenhou Shizi or not, even today’s sage Nor can they be shaken.

There are many dead men under Xu Xiangrong’s. Seeing this kind of behavior from the visitors, you know that they are dead men undoubtedly.

Is it the prince, or the Lord Yasukuni? Is their strategy already understood? What about King Jin in the palace?

Xu Xiangrong was confused, and his forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat.

“You still don’t want to resist stubbornly. Since I can find here, I naturally know who your backers are. King Jin? King Jin is probably gone by now.”

A chuckle sounded in the darkness, and soon disappeared in the sound of weapons collision.

Xu Xiangrong tried desperately to tell himself that the other party was attacking the heart, but there was really no way to convince himself. And most of the confidants of Xu Xiangrong who can stay at this time naturally know what the masters are doing today. Hearing this, they can’t help but lose their minds. Suddenly the remaining ten guards fell a few more.

Xu Xiangrong’s face was pale, and his eyes were dead.

After a while, he moved, and suddenly said to Yan Ting, who was in front of him and was in hand-to-hand combat, “You go.”

Yan Ting paused, then swung his knife to block it, “Where to go?”

“They want my life. It shouldn’t be difficult for you to escape.”

In the past few years, Yan Ting’s martial arts have improved a lot.

On weekdays, he seldom talks, except for a few occasional conversations with Xu Xiangrong, most of the time he is not going out to do errands or practicing martial arts hard. The fall of the cliff caused him to have a problem with his legs, and he could only use martial arts to make up for it, and told himself that he was not a waste person. So even though he was besieged by two men in black, he didn’t let the wind fall. Only occasionally staggered the bottom plate to tell others that he was actually the end of the fight.

Only Xu Xiangrong saw these in his eyes, and the others didn’t know. The two men in black who were fighting against him were very cautious, because they could tell from the opponent’s offensive that the blind man in front of him had extremely high martial arts.

In the shadow of Dingdingzheng’s sword, light and sword, Yan Ting whispered: “You saved my life, and I will pay you back now!”

Xu Xiangrong smiled miserably and stopped speaking.

During this period, the butler did not know when he had already fallen, and the remaining guards also lost their lives one by one. Only Yan Ting seemed to be still resisting. There are more and more blood stains on his body, both of his own and of the other side. It’s just that, after all, it was one enemy and two, and it gradually revealed its defeat.

“This one-eyed man is desperate!”

The leaders of these dead men seemed to have a heart of playfulness, and did not tell the rest of them to swarm up, but stood aside and looked at the two people in front of them jokingly.

“Since you are going to kill me, do you let me know if you die!” Xu Xiangrong said sternly.

The other party smiled softly, “Death is death, why do you want to be a ghost!”

Yan Ting couldn’t hold it anymore, his feet were vain and weak. Seeing the sword shadow attacked by the opponent, he dodged sideways, but felt weak.

Suddenly, the body was pulled by someone, and a person stood in front of him. He seemed to hear an extremely faint voice, and he saw the person pursing his mouth and spraying his face with blood.

In the **** color, his mind flashed many, many regrets, regrets, and confusion… There were many, many, but at the ultimatum they returned to peace.

fair enough!

Yan Ting thought, this is also good!

Feeling a piercing pain, Yan Ting finally couldn’t stand and fell down, and the man’s tall body fell on him. He seems to be still alive, with a strange arc hanging from the corner of his mouth.

“If there is another life, I still won’t let you go!”

In a daze, Yan Ting seemed to hear such a sentence.

He actually gave birth to a funny mentality, and then the world fell into darkness.

…

The surroundings finally returned to silence, and there were blood and corpses everywhere in the eyes. In the most central area of ​​the entire yard, two people fell, one on top and the other below, and the two were in a state of entanglement.

It’s just that no one noticed all this, a fire suddenly ignited, and all the people in black retreated.

“Leave a few people to watch the fire, don’t let the fire get out of control. Let’s go.” Fushun said. ?
