The incoming guards were fierce. The few guards at the door couldn't stop these people at all. Soon, a few of them were killed or injured. They were approaching the main hall where I was. At this time, I saw many of the guards in black clothes that I had seen in the palace earlier. It was as if they had suddenly appeared, and the fight had suddenly expanded.
Guo Zhaolin was still calm despite his surprise. Seeing this, he waved his hand to signal for the inner guards to withdraw and all of them blocked the main hall door.
I stared at the people who rushed in first and felt that their clothes were very familiar. I suddenly paused and asked Guo Zhaolin,"The imperial guards?"
Seeing him nod his head, I couldn't help but secretly sigh. I've been so used to living in the palace this year that I've actually forgotten these people I used to see in the capital! It was true that Rong Chengyao's men were still outside the city, but the imperial guards were always in the city. The Xue family had already sent their own people into the palace, so how could Rong Chengyao sit around and wait?
He secretly gritted his teeth. If he had known earlier, he would have come and taken Jing Yuan away when he should have returned to the palace.
The courtyard of Guangyang Palace was quite spacious, and the scene was very spectacular. Soon, there were casualties on both sides.
It was obvious that these imperial guards who had come into the palace were the cream of the crop. They had the advantage in both numbers and martial arts. Although the imperial guards were not bad, they were still no match for them after a long time. They died on the spot one by one. A few nannies and servants fled in all directions when they saw this. It seemed that the imperial guards had been instructed not to leave anyone alive.
Finally, it was time for the two imperial guards to confront each other. The leader of the imperial guards recognized Guo Zhaolin and cupped his fists."Guo Tongzhi, we have been ordered to pick up the eldest son. Please give us some convenience.”
Guo Zhaolin snorted coldly and said disdainfully,""The imperial guards of the capital are the same as the inner guards. They directly listen to the emperor. Now that the emperor is far away at the frontier fortress, may I ask whose orders you are following?”
The man smiled faintly." Guo Tongzhi, why do you ask when you already know the answer? No one knows where the Emperor is now. A wise man understands the times. I advise you not to delay our brothers 'work."”
"Bah!" Guo Zhaolin raised his neck." Stop talking nonsense!”
A fight broke out once again. Most of the elites of the inner palace guards were taken away by Fu Hongyan, and the rest were split into two sides to guard the Kun Yi Palace and the Guang Yang Palace. Currently, other than Guo Zhaolin, there were no good experts on the Guang Yang Palace side. Although they could still lose some of their opponents, they were still defeated in the end. Some of them were lying on the ground, and in just a moment, Guo Zhaolin was the only one left fighting alone.
Guo Zhaolin's martial arts were not bad after all. He cultivated both his palm and sword, and his moves were imposing and skillful. Even though he was injured in a few places, he still did not retreat. He blocked the entrance of the hall. Those imperial guards could not attack for a while, and instead, a few more were injured or killed.
Shui Mo, who was at the side, was so scared that she couldn't speak. She curled up beside me and looked back and forth in horror. Jing Yuan, who was in her arms, had already woken up. He didn't cry or make a fuss.
I looked at her and sighed. I pointed to the side hall and said,"Go inside. Don't come out unless I call you.”
Shui Mo nodded, then hesitated,"Then Miss…"
"Go quickly," I urged.
Seeing her obediently enter, I took two steps forward and leisurely said to the burly man who was still fighting a bloody battle,"Guo Zhaolin, you've already lost your advantage, why are you still resisting?”
Guo Zhaolin's entire body trembled. He suddenly used a fierce move to repel the opponent in front of him. He turned around and said angrily,"So it's you!"
Another saber slashed over from the other side. Guo Zhaolin blocked it as he kept saying,"I knew I couldn't trust you! Your Rong Cheng family has been plotting to usurp the throne and has been ambitious for a long time. The emperor has really misjudged you!”
He was distracted by his words, so it was inevitable that he would reveal a flaw in his defense. If he didn't notice, another bloody wound would immediately appear on his back. I frowned slightly and chuckled."It's not too late for you to wake up. It's a pity to lose your life in vain. It's better to surrender. BenGong will spare your life for your loyalty.”
The leader of the other party pushed the boat with the current."The Empress is right. Guo Tongzhi should think it through.”
At this moment, I took another step forward and pretended to ask that person,"Has Uncle entered the palace? Have the people outside entered the city?"
" The chief assistant has not yet entered the palace. We are here to pick up the Empress and the eldest son." The man did not expect me to ask about the people outside the city. He was stunned for a moment before answering." When we leave the palace safely, the garrison will enter the city."”
I smiled faintly and didn't say anything. That meant that I had no idea that Rong Chengyao had suddenly started something before entering the city. I believed that Rong Chengyao definitely didn't order these people to pick me up. However, that person was so shrewd that he took the opportunity to add me in. He even hurriedly reminded me," Your Majesty, retreat further. Be careful of swords and swords."”
I was waiting for him to say this. Guo Zhaolin finally came to his senses. He suddenly retreated and pulled me back to the center of the hall. He placed his sword on my neck and shouted,"Nobody move! "The imperial guards of the capital all followed me in. Although they did not really have the order to protect me, the eldest son was not in their hands yet, so no one dared to act rashly.
Counting, excluding the casualties from the chaotic battle just now, Guo Zhaolin had killed quite a few more people, leaving eleven people standing.
He could not help but sigh and say to Guo Zhaolin,"Do you know what will happen to the person who puts a sword on my neck?”
Guo Zhaolin's injuries were not light either. At this moment, his face was filled with rage."You-"
Before he could say anything, I had already raised my hand and snatched his sword. I used a speed that left everyone dumbfounded as I rushed over. I raised my hand and slashed down with my sword. In an instant, I had already killed the two closest to the door.
He had deliberately attacked from the entrance to prevent anyone from escaping in the chaos. None of these people would be able to survive today.
Once he made up his mind, he didn't need to talk about the morality of the martial world, nor did he need to state his identity and reason. He didn't stop and attacked with his most powerful killing move.
Among the imperial guards, how strong could they be? The first three did not even have the time to react and were all killed in one move. It was only until the fourth that they began to resist. However, even if two or three of them surrounded him, they would not be able to last more than three to five moves against a top-notch top-notch Qingcheng sword system.
Guo Zhaolin's sword was a little heavy, and it was not easy to use it. When he saw a gap, he threw it back to him and snatched a lighter one. Only then did he brandish a graceful sword shadow and wrap himself up. It was like a ball of poison, causing the surrounding people to die if they touched it. Anyone who touched it would be splashed with blood on the spot.
In order to avoid being covered in blood, I carefully avoided the scattered blood lines. I was glad that I didn't wear those complicated and lengthy clothes today. I didn't forget to remind Guo Zhaolin, who was stunned on the spot,"If you don't want to help, stand further away or close the door.”
It was much easier for me to speak in the same fight than him.
Finally, there was only the last leader left. I sheathed my sword and said to Guo Zhaolin,"This is yours."
Guo Zhaolin finally came back to his senses. He didn't say anything and immediately slashed his sword. His momentum was extremely fierce, but that person was scared silly and only blocked randomly. His eyes kept staring at me. I shook my head. I knew that this person had probably seen through something, but unfortunately, death was right in front of me.
Sure enough, after being pierced by the sword, the person struggled and asked me,"Who…are you?"
I looked at him and asked,"Tell me first, how many people did you bring this time?"”
" I'm here to pick up the prince... Everything is here..." He didn't hide anything and gritted his teeth." Are you... You actually..."
"You're not dead yet, so I can't tell you."”
No matter how that person's eyes widened in disbelief and was about to speak again while trembling, my gaze turned towards Guo Zhaolin who hadn't drawn his sword. My voice became cold,"You also want to know?"
Guo Zhaolin trembled, then immediately drew his sword and killed him with a palm strike.
When he turned around, my sword was already pointed at his throat.
He was stunned and his expression changed slightly.
" Both sides fought for the crown prince, and there were casualties in the fight. You killed the remaining people. When the emperor comes back, he will reward them according to their merits." I smiled at him." Do you remember?"”
He was disappointed for a moment, then slowly nodded after being surprised.
My smile spread out as I twisted my wrist and made a beautiful sword move. With a clang, I threw the sword on the ground.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, he laughed in his heart. He didn't expect that his joke about killing would come true.
There was movement outside again. Seeing that it was the inner guards of the Kunyi Palace, he turned around and said,"Let's go to Longevity Palace.”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420184: 13PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
